These arrivals and departures are only as infor i it'.ir. far the public an I are not guaranteed, and are subject to change without notice. i All have sorrows and tenipta ! tions, but by much meditation and j prayer we can avoid unnecessary ; worries and be a blessing to those i around us. One of the noblest qualities we can possess in this life 1 is cheerfulness. Many times when we are almost overcome by petty grievances and feel that we are - doomed to despair we may accom plish a vast deal of good and light en the burden of the hearts of i those about us by being cheerful. When we are careworn and ' tired with vanities and vexations of this world, we can work won- ders if we will try to look on the I bright side. Many times could we transform the sad, forlorn expres sion on the face of some dear friend by simply a smile or a pleas ant look. Humanity is seeking "ways of : p'easanmess and paths of peace." ! Human hearts yearn for a pleas j ant word or look instead of sighs I and tears. ; "Rejoice and men will seek you, ! Grieve, and they turn and go; I They want full measure of your ! pleasure, j But they do not want your woe. " 1 Life is too short to spend in ; melancholy mood, for it is better I tu assume a smile whenever it is I possible, than to be morose and sour, thereby casting a gloom un- ! awares, perhaps, over the lives of i others. We have seen those who would 1 nurse their grievances and who seemed to be groping their way in utter darkness, always borrowing trouble and making themselves miserable and causing others to avoid them, when a smile or a pleasant word would have been like "apples of gold in pictures of silver." Sometimes it is hard to be light- hearted and cheerful, but we know not the blessings it would bring and the halo of light it would throw ' 1 around if we woul only let the sun-1 shine into our hearts that would . 1 shed a ray of gladness through the windows of the soul and bring joy ; and peace to the thousands that ' dwell in the valley below. Most women who have had complex- . ions have dyspepsia, or at least indiges tion, which eventually will hecoine dyB- ! p.'psm.

POST MORTEM PRAISES. I've noticed when a fellow dies, no matter what he's been A saintly chap or one whose life was darkly steeped in sin Mis friends forget the bitter words they spoke but yesterday; And now they find a multitude of pretty things to say, I fancy when I go to rest someone will bring to light Some kindly words of goodly act long buried out of sight; But, if it's all the same to you, just give to- me instead The bouquets while I'm living and the knocking when I am dead. Don't save your kisses to imprint upon my marble brow, While countless maledictions are hurled upon me now; Say just one kindly word lo me while I mourn here alone, And don't save all your eulogy to carve upon a stone. What do I care if when I'm dead the Bloomingdale Gazette Gives me a write-up with a "cut" in mourning borders set; It will not flatter me a bit, no matter what is said, So kindly throw your bouquets now and knock me when I'm dead. It may be fine, when one is dead, to have the folks say so, To have the flowers come in loads, from relatives, you know; It may be nice to have these things, for those you leave behind, But just as far as I'm concerned, I really do not mind, ' I'm quite alive and well today, and while I linger here, Lend me a helping hand at times give me a word of cheer. Just change the game a little bit, just kindly swap the decks, For 1 will be no judge of flowers when I've cashed in my checks. quotes eitracu iroin weu-reco,,,,, . .... -leal authorities such as Dr. Barlliolow, irin Kc.utitcV.

For here she has been slyly weaving the enchanted web around her unsuspecting victim for many a day, and then to think she would dillusiomze the romantic youth; who fondly imagines he is doing the choosing. Besides, this is his last chance to make a speech which will be heard through, For with the seal of marriage on his proposal, she relegates htm to a sileni partnership, and being usu ally a lover of peace he lets it go at that. So do not deprive him of this harmless enjoyment. Neither deprive the young lady of the amusement sure to be hers when he proposes. How seriously he takes himself! How strangely he stutters and ft ters through a eulogy of 'hitmen, and an intimation to her of her great good Fortune in having such an opportunity ! Let him flatter himself. Let her enjoy herself. "Man proposes, but woman dis poses." HELP US! Some men were born for great things, Some men were born for small; All women were born for million aire's wives; Good Lord, watch o'er us all KEEP YOUR HEARTS SWEET. Many of us find life hard and full of pain. The world uses us rudely and roughly. We suffer wrongs and injuries. Other peo ple's clumsy feet tread upon our tender spirits. W'e must endure misfortunes, trials and disappoint ments. We cannot avoid these things, but we should not allow the harsh experiences to deaden our sensibilities or make us stoical or sour. The true problem of living is to keep our hearts sweet and gentle in the hardest condi tions and experiences. If you re move the snow from the hillside in the late winter, you will find sweet flowers growing there be neath the cold drifts, unhurt by the storm and by the snowy blank ets that have covered them. So should we keep our hearts tender and sensitive beneath life's fiercest winter blasts, and through the longest years of suffering, and even in injustice and wrong treat ment. This is true victorious liv ing. Don't women get nervous prostration from social obligations and too much housework? This won't occur if they use Dra.

"Go, my son, 1 consign thee to God," said the mother of Abd-el- j Kader, after giving him forty pieces of silver, and making him promise never to tell a lie; "we may not j meet again until the day of judg-! mem." i The boy left home to seek his fortune, but in a few days the par-; ty with which he traveled was- at- j tacked by robbers. "What money j have you with you?" asked one. j "Forty dinars are sewed up in my garment," replied Abd-el-Ka-dcr; but the robber only laughed. "What money have you really with you?" inquired another sternly, and the youth repeated his former answer; but no attention was paid to this statement, which was not believed on account of its frank ness. "Come here, boy," called the chief, who had noticed the men talking to the young traveler; "what money have you?" "I have told two of your men j aireaay mat i nave forty dinars sewed up in my clothes, but they do not believe me." "Rip his garments open," com manded the chief, and soon his sil ver was found. "And how came you to tell this?" "Because I would not be false to my mother, to whom 1 prom ised never to tell a lie." "Boy," said the leader, "are you so mindful of your duty to your mother, although so young, and am I insensible, at my mature age, of the duty I to God? Give me your hand that I may swear j repentance upon it." He did so, j and his followers were greatly im-1 pressed. "You have been our j leader in guilt," said his lieutenant; 1 "be mine, at least, in the path of j virtue, and he took the boy s hand as the chief had done. One by one all the rest of the band did the same. Abd-el-Kader was an Algerian ruler and patriot. Born near Mascara in 1807. His father was considered a very holy man, exer cised great influence over hiscoun- i trymen and bequeathed this influ-; ence to his son. He studied iti I the chief schools of Fez, maintain- j ed the faith of his people and used i their fanaticism as one of the most important sources of influence. j His public career tbegan at the time of the conquest of Algiers by j the French. He attacked the i French and after two bloody bat-1 ties, fought on December 3, 1 833, and January 4, 1S34, against Gen eral Desmichels, then commanding in Oran, he obliged the latter to enter into a treaty with him. La ter, however, the tide turned against him and after a struggle of six years he was obliged to take refuge in Morocco. There he succeeded in organizing a relig ious war against the enemies j of Islam, but meeting with defeat the end of his power came. He tied with his followers to Algeria, where the greater part surrender ed to the French. He was kept a prisoner with his family in France until released by Napoleon III. For his services during the Syrian massacre of I860 he received the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor from Na poleon. He died in Damascus on May 26, 1883. 1 thought I saw a form of some ! kind between the bowlders. I j jumped to the conclusion that it was a soldier. In one second it i had vanished. I challenged, but ! got no answer. Those pieces of i rock seemed to terrify me. ! I advanced toward them, but j saw nothing. I retired back and took up my position leaning on my rille. My eyes went again to I the same place, and there, stand-; ing between the two bowlders, was the outline of a woman. 1 brought my ritle to the present, covering the form which stood before me. I saw her walk from one piece of rock to the other. 1 watched and saw her repeat her action. She then stopped and leaned up against one of the bowl ders with her back toward me. I again advanced to where she stood. When I had got to within forty or fifty yards of her I saw her turn round and look straight at me with a careworn and sorrowful face. Then I saw and knew who she was. It was my own mother. I was not mistaken, for she walked within a few yards of me, at the same time looking me dead in the face. She then turned about and walked to the two pieces of rock, and I saw no more of her. About three weeks after 1 received a letter from home telling me of her death and burial. "A Grenadier's South African Reminiscence" in Occult Review. Nervous Prostration "I .suffered so with Nervous Prostration that I thought there was no use trying to get well. A friend recommended Dr. Miles' Nervine, and although skeptical at first, 1 soon found myself re covering, and am to-day well." MRS. D. I. JONES, 5X00 Broadway, Cleveland, O. Much sickness is of nervous origin. It's the nerves that make the heart force the blood through the veins, the lungs take in oxygen, the stomach di gest food, tin: liver secrete bile and the kidneys filter the blood. If any of these organs arc weak, it L. the fault of the nerves through which they get their strength. Dr. Miles' Nervine is a hpecific for the nerves. It soothes the irritation and assists in the generation of nerve force. Therefore you can hardly miss it if you take Dr. Miles' Nervine when sick. Get a bottle from your druggist.
