COMPLETE LINE OF casribk: It. 8. THAVIS, no THI CHILDREN LIKE IT KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE COUCH SYRUP fa fmm VERY GOOD YARN. Meat Was so High that Drummer Had Dog Served Up to Him Specimen of a First-Class Lie. Many yarns have been told about nuking sausage out of dog meat. Comedians in shows have used it for years. The Vaco Texas. I Times-Herald, however, gets off j quite the best story in this line j yet. It says that "G. 1-. Sew i right went into a restaurant in 1 1. os Angeles, Cal., and ordered a j weinerwursi. While he wasmas ! li: ning ii with great zeal and much j satisfaction his teeth came in con j tact with something hard, and j drawing it out, he found it was a ; dog tag numbered 4 1 3. Sewright began by denouncing the beef trust for raising prices to such a height that a restaurant keeper can't af ford to put anything into his sau sages but dogs. The waiter ex postulated because he made so much noise and Sewright thrashed him. The cook came to the res cue of the waiter, and Sewright beat him until he roared. Then, with the tag still in his hand, he went to the city clerk to find out who answered to the number of 413. He found it had been is sued to Miss Anna Bell for her Scotch terrier, Daisy. "1 have ! eaten her," replied Sewright, re ferring to the dog and not the maiden. Then he looked up Miss Bell and discovered that she had lost the dog three weeks before, and had been offering a reward for its return ever since. And thus was it made evident to Miss Bell that the want columns of the news paper can't perform the impossi ble; still, she got the tag." The reporter who got off this yarn is entitled to go to the head of the class. Greensboro Record. JUST LIKE EVE'S APPLE. A fruit supposed to hear the mark of Eve's teeth is one of the many botanical curiosities of Ceylon. The tree on which it grows is known by the name of "the forbidden fruit," or 'Eve's apple tree." The blos som bus a very pleasant scent but the really remarkable feat ure of the tree, the ono to which it owes its name, is the fruit. It is beautiful and bangs from the tree in u peculiar manner. Orange on the outside and deep crimson within, each fruit has the appearance ot having bad a piece bitten out of it. This fact, together with its poison ous quality, led the Mohamme dans to represent it as the for bidden fruit of the garden of Eden ami to warn men against its noxious properties. The mark upon tho fruit is attribu ted to Eve. Why the bite of Adam did not also leave its mark is not known, but as only one-piece seems to be missing its loss is uscribed to the wo man.

"The river is dark, but the lights abide 0 soul ! on the beautiful, other side, The lights that shine o'er the river's breast From the beautiful shore where the bells ring 'Rest' ! Rest for the weary over the tide On the beautiful shore on the other side. "It is only a hand clasp a sad 'good night' A step in the darkness then dreams, and light ! A fading away of the world's bright skies, Then the light of heaven on the dreaming eyes, Rest for the weary over the tide On the shore that shines from the other side. "Oh, the river is dark, but the lights abide If only in dreams, on the other side ! We yield the crosses we cast the cares Loveless longings, unanswered prayers, Tor the dark or the light o'er the river's tide We pass to peace on the other side." TO THE YOUNG FOLKS. The Home Should Be a Place of Contentment and Happiness. There are certain conditions which young people must ob serve, if the obstacles which do so much toward wrecking mar ried life are to bo avoided. A young girl should never think of getting married until she is adopt in house-keeping and domestic science. To make a real home for tho man that she loves is her part. Not a place which is merely a stop ping place to eat, and sleep, but a spot where comfort, content ment and happiness reign. Again a young man must not think of marrying until he is ready to settle down into a quiet, homo life. It is said that either tho worst or best of a man's nature asserts itself between the ages of twenty aud twenty-two. After having had his little fling, if he dis covers that dissipation and im mortality are but gilded "ap ples of Sodom" which brings bitterness to the heart and sor row into the soul, he will be thankful that he is able to re tain the love of one true hearted young woman and will be ready to devote his life to her. MATRIMONIAL HINT. There is no doubt that a great number of silly girls give their first best thoughts to idle dreams of matrimony. They care for noth ing but reaching the coveted goal, and in so doing, improvement, elevation and dignified woman hood are forgotten. Long ere they are qualified for the cares of married life, they willingly take the responsibilities upon them, providing any one aspires for their hand, and when the marriage vows are spoken the heast is rid of an immense burden the object of life is attained. No girl under twenty has any business to think of marriage. If she finds a dispo sition in one of the opposite sex responding with her own, let her admire and enjoy it but not to such an extent that the heart is ablaze with love, and the mind a wilderness of air castles. HER REASON. "It is awfully good of you to let me have a dance," a young man remarked gushingly to his partner. I can t think what made you so kind." "No?" the girl rejoined. "Why, don't you know that it's a charity ball?" CHIIdron Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA MY CREED. I believe in God because it is harder to disbelieve. I believe in immortality because I now live. I believe in cleanliness of body and of mind and of soul. I believe in kindness that goes out to man, woman, child and ani mal. I believe in truth because it is the only thing that makes me free. I believe that charily begins at home, but does not end there. I believe in mercy, as I myself hope for mercy. I believe in moral courage be cause I am more than a brute. I believe in patience because it is the swiftest means to secure re sults. I believe in that kind of industry that takes an occasional vacation. I believe in that sort of economy I that spends money for a good pur pose. I believe in honesty not for policy's sake, but for principle's sake. I believe in hospitality because it puts a roof over every man's head. 1 believe in necessary suffering because it chastens and purifies. I believe in self control because I want to influence others. I believe in obedience because it is the only way to learn how to command. I believe in righteousness be cause it is the shortest line between two eternities. 1 believe in real courtesy because it is a big part of religion. I believe in hope because it sees the star behind the cloud. 1 believe in love because it is the only real solvent of all life's prob lems. I believe in temperance because I want to live long in this good world. TELL THEM TO COME IN. A boy goes along the street at night and sees a fine house beauti fully lighted up and hears music, ana ne says, i wisn I was in there, but I have not been invited," and so he passes on. Here is the church of God, lighted up with festivity and holy mirth, and the world passes along outside, hears the music and sometimes wishes it was inside, but says that it was not invited. Oh, invite the world to come in ! Go out into the high ways and hedges. Send a ticket of invitation printed in these words, "Come, for all things are ready.' Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA i "BESIDE THE CROSS." t Where Do You Place Jesus Today? Is He in the Midst of Your Bus iness With All Its Trials and Cares and Strain?' "Jesus ill the midst." John xix, IS. As we take our stand by that cross on Calvary, we gaze with reverent awe upon "Jesus in the midst." We shall never be able to gauge His bodily sulfering, and still less may wo enter into the awful depth of agony in His soul, while His Father's face was turned away from Him when He made His soul an offering for the sin of the whole world. Notice the company in which man placed the Christ of God ! They placed Him between thieves and malefactors. Once before He was on the mount, and there with Him appeared Moses, tho great law-giver, and Elijah, the prophet of Israel, and He was in tho midst of that company of glorified saints Turn to the fifth chapter of Revelation, and you will see where Heaven places our Lord, "In the midst of the throne stood a lamb, as it had been slain." All the hosts of heav en bend in adoration before that lamb, slain from the foundation of the world. Jesus is in the midst today. He is the greatest central fig ure and manifestation of God's love and of God's power, as seen upon tho cross of Calvary. He is in the midst of creation. He upholds all things by the word of His power. He is in the midst of the church. He has promised "Where two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst." He is the centre of His church as its head, as its heart, as its standard, as the mediator be tween guilty sinners and the God of Heaven. The Father so loved us that He gave His Son to die for us, and thus to bring us learto God. In the midst f all of our trials and tempta tions, He is near to help and comfort and sustain. A naturalist tells a sweet, pa ct ic tragedy of a field of Eng- ish gorse. Some one set it on fire, which swept on fast until it came to a linnet's nest. And there they found covering the ittlo brood (which was saved from the sweeping storm of fire), a small black and blasted skeleton, which might have been a winged songster under the blue sky had sho not been faithful unto death." Small but beautiful picture of the love of Him who gave Himself for us. Where do you place Jesus to day? Is He in the midst of your business, with all its cares and strain. You need Him there to guide and uphold you. Is He in the midst of your home ife, shedding love and kind ness around, and sweetening the daily tasks and joys? Is He in the midst of your com panionship? He stooped from heaven to earth in order to be your friend and to stay by your side. He became man that He might lay Himself down beside us, that we may feel tho throb bing of His heart against our own, and hear Him whisper in our ear, "God is love." By and by He will be in our midst no longer as tho uniting link, but in that last dread day standing as the judge be tween tho righteous and the sinner. w hat place will you give Him? By the memory of His great love and His sorrow, place Him in the midst of your heart today ? RATHER TOUCHY. "Look here," drawled Farmer Ryetop, in the diner of the palace train, "what do you mean by bringing me a finger bowl with rose leaves in it?" "Why, boss, dat is de latest style," assured the waiter. "It is, eh! Well, I thought you had cut out the regulation slices of lemon because you were afraid would mistake it for lemonade. ain't one of them comic pag'e farm er boys." And many a Fair woman has taken a man by storm. Ask Grand Ma' ABOUT SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR For over 80 years it has been the standard remedy for Biliousness, Constipation, Headache, Dyspepsia, Malaria and all diseases of the Stomach and Liver. SHE KNOWS WHY IS IT. Let Parents Ponder Over These Tew Suggestions. As we passed along the street on a recent Sunday we counted j twenty-seven young men, most ot them in their teens, just budding into manhood, loitering their time away. As we looked into their faces, many of them lighted up by the beacon rays of a poor cigar or the pernicious cigarette, we recog nized them as young men blessed with comfortable homes, indulgent parents and loving sisters. We ask ourselves, why is it? Why do these young men prefer the un clean resorts, comfortless streets and mixed society, to the uphol stered chair, the pleasant and com fortable surroundings of the family circle at home ? Who can answer? Dare we charge the parents are in a degree responsible for this state of affairs? Are these things as they would have them? Do you shut up your homes lest the sun should fade your carpets, and your heart lest a laugh should shake down a few of the musty old cobwebs that are hanging there? If you want to ruin your sons let them think that all social enjoyment must be left at the threshold when they come home. When once a home is regarded as only a suitable place to eat, drink and sleep in, the work is begun that ends in gambling houses and reckless degredation. Better let the fire burn brightly in the winter and the doors be thrown open in summer and make the homestead delightful with all those ttle arts that parents so well un derstand. Half an hour of merri ment within doors, and merriment of a home blots out the remem brance of many a care and annoy ance during the day, and the bes safeguard that can be taken with them into the world is the unseen influence of a bright little home sanctum. Let parents ponder over these few suggestions. Ex. DIAQNOSIS. Into a general store of a town Arkansas there recently came a darky complaining that ham he had recently bought there was no good. The ham is all.right, Zeph," insisted the storekeeper. 'Xo.it ain't boss," insisted the negro, "fat nam s snore uac "How can that be," contin ued the storekeeper, "when it was cured only last week?"
