Any information will be furnished ou application to the I'residcntorCashiei Many and weighty are the edi torials that have been written on "There is always room at the top" Our greatest writers have pointed l young men to the top round of the ! ladder. This is well, but it is lime ! to call a halt. There are too many j at the tup und none at the bottom. J "There's room at the top has been ! preached by our preachers; j Been sung by our poets and lattghi ; by our teachers, Until by sucli teaching, growing wiser and sadder, We have almost forgotten the font I of life's ladder." i Young men have a desire lo eu j ter some profession. They inug ; ine tltat Vnly lawyers, editors, j or politicians ever reach the top of ! the ladder. Young ladies who have from youth been pointed to j the top of the ladder, slum iliedisll ; pan and broom as they would ilie cholera. The piano and music books, to speak French correctly and waltz gracefully they consider the only stepping stones leading to the top of the ladder. The lime has come when it is almost impos sible to find a young man or young woman at the foot of the ladder, willing lo labor at any calling that is honorable and earn a living by the sweat of their brow. "There's room at the bottom, 0 men of stations ! He not drawn aside by their trite iterations Prom the commonplace duties which lie at the bottom, High places are quite hard in hold when you've got 'em." Multiplied scores of young men who are complete failures in the various professions woul d have successfully followed the plow handles, or as engineers might now be "holding down" a fast mail train. But too many imagine they cannot climb the ladder if their lingers are soiled. They forget that " The road at the top leads o'er rockiest ledges, Who climbs must hold on by the raggedest edges, And many a nun who has missed his vocation Is brought to himself by a bad dislocation."

Don't give him in anger a piece of your mind Just huld your tongue, and "forget it." Are your motives impugned when you stand for the right : It will anger you sore if you let it. Don't roar like a lion that's spoiling to fight Consider the source, and "forget it." Is work never ceasing ? The way bleak with toil ? Does discouragement seem to beset it ? They ne'er can o'ercome who from labor recoil Keep your eye on the goal, and "forget it." Has luck been against you in ventures you've made ? Has fortune frowned grim when you've met it ? Don't give way to senseless, unseemly tirade Keep pegging away, and "forget it." Does the honor you sought your rival adorn ? Just wind up your hope and reset it, There are honors untaken and glories unborn So turn loose your grouch, and "forget it." NOTHINC-MUTGHNESS. How we worry, fret and fuss Over what goes wrong with us! . liver'body me an' you I Thinks that what we have to do Is important, when, gee whiz ! A thing isn't, or it is. What we'd fight for yesterday Now is only in the way. When you put it in the way, Nothin' much amounts to much. At the time, though, how it seems Things o' which a feller dreams Is the only things wuth while ! How we trudge on, mile an' mile, After somethin', like as not. After while we have forgot, Things we've kept, an' things we've lost Wuz thev worth all that they cost3 When you put it to the touch Nothm' much amounts to much. Men go chasin' after fame, Think the whole world knows their name, Whoop around an' have their way Then stay back in yesterday. Ctesar worried for his crown, Nero ruled, then burnt his town. Old Napoleon, prajsed an' cussed Here's a little bit o' dust. When you put it to the touch Nothin' much amounts to much. Here you go an' here 1 go. Workin' rushin' to and fro, Thinkin' if we end our fuss That the world must end for us. But to-morrow, when we're gone, This old world will keep right on That's the rule and that's the way We'll be lost with yesterday. When you put it to the touch Nothin' much amounts to much.

"I have Iwen teaching school for some years and I have neglected my health leeause I was too busy with my work to attend to myself jiroiieily. I suffered greatly every mouth and was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. "I wrote to you about my condition and took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Comixmnd and the Wood Purifier as you recommended. These remedies have done wonders for me and I can highly and widely recommend them to every suffering woman." Jliss iliNNiit Shavek, H. F. U.

I suffered severe headache, was weak and nervous, could eat scarcely anything. "I took both Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood fritter and the result was wonderful. I feel like another person. "I think your remedies are tho best on earth and cannot express my thankfulness to you for what they have done to nie. I help my neighlwrs when they are sick, and I Khali always recommend your medicines." Miss Ella McCandi.ess, Montrose, CoL Is it not reasonable to suppose that a medicine that did so much for these girls will benefit any other girl who is suffering with the same troubles? Does it not seem the only sensible thing to give such a medicine at least a trial ? You may be sure that it can do you no harm, and there are lots of proof that it will do you much good. For SO years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound lias been the standard remedy tor fe male ills.

What a name ! It is a land without a storm, a country without a tempest, where there are I no wars or fights or quarrels; no ! sick beds there, no aching heads or hearts, no bills to be paid or rents to become due; a people ' without poverty; a city without a cemetery; a domain without a ; darkness; a sea of delight with never a billow or shipwreck; a garden without a weed; a place where no hospitals or asylums are I ever built; no beggars there; no crying children; no breadless I mouths no shoeless feet; no police- men or sheriffs or constables; no saloons or brothels; no muddy . minds or twitching nerves; no ach- ing teeth, no ferverish blood; no j undertakers nor physicians: no surgeon s knife or dentist's for ceps; no drug stores; no crutches, or eye glasses, or ear trumpets; no smoking lamps or burnt-out wicks; no brooms or dust. For trials we get triumphs, pain gives away to praise; heartbeats give away to heartstrings; sighs away to songs. Instead of the plow and the furrow, it is the sickle and the sheaf. The sower's sack is replaced by the barn of fullness. The pruning knife is not to be found, neither the harrow nor the hoe, In thai nappy land the neighbor is no stranger, and the king is the per sonal friend ot all. There it is not work to live, but live to work. There is no toil in the heavenly service, nor fainting ander heavy strains. There are no loads to carry. It is a land where every one helps himself to what he wants, and giving does not impoverish the giver. I here they never so licit funds for church erection, nor take up collections to meet defi ciencies. It is a land of resi. The traveller has reached his terminus, the hunter his happy hunting ground, the weary head has found its pillow, the pursued of Saian has found a refuge, the friendless have found a thousand friends, the homeless live in mansions, and a beggar could make a man rich with his over supply.

Everybody Ooes from Her Pres ence Feeling Comfortable in Spirit. "She knows just how to talk to all kinds and conditions of men," was the recommendation given for a bright woman who makes her living as much by her ability to please as by actual labors. Seeing that woman afterwards and ob serving her closely, one could not but be impressed with the truth of what had been said. She was gay with the gay, silent when any one else wanted to talk, talkative wiih the shy, always good-tempered, never too animated, and never, never visibly in pain nor in tears. She was always charming, bright, sympathetic, and sweet. She was witty, too, but not terribly so. She kept her wit to illumine conversa tion and to lighten dull spirits, not to burn hearts nor scorch sensitive feelings. Everybody went from her presence feeling comfortable in spirit and with reasonably satis fied hearts. She was a peace-maker and a courage-strengthener. There are two or three dozen such women in the world; and when you find one, she will tell you that it is almost impossible for her to get an evening to herself, because so many dear, kind friends are apt to drop in of an evening. And she will add: "I am glad it is so, for 1 should not be able to get through the day without the pros pect of these pleasant things. 1 wish the day would be all all evening with a time table that never crept beyond the limits of eight to elev en."
