HOW GIRLS MAY SUCCEED.
Do What Your Hands Find To Do
With a (Had Heart.
Some of you are out In the
world earning your ow living;
you have bail to do it to help
some one at homo as well as to
take care of yourself. You are
up on a high stool looking at
tiresome figures in black und
white; you are ringing out the
changes of a letter or a law
deed on a typewriter; you are
standing behind a counter ca
tering to the whims and wants
of thousands ofieople; you are
working away reading proof,
and wonder why people don't
write plainly. Hut no matter
what you are doing, you will
never succeed in this world and
you will be of no worth to ihe
people who employ you unless
you do Ihe best you can. o it
for your own sake. Don't slight
any work, no matter how poor
it may seem to you the work
becomes great and noble the
very second you put a great
and noble determination into
it. ( )f course you get tired, but
every time you feel that tired
feeling coming over you, stop
for a minute, und give your
eyes or hands a rest and re
member that the work done
in tho right spirit is the only
work tit to offer (lod himself,
and that is the way und spirit
in which you ought to work.
By doing the best you can ,by
being just as patient as you,
your work is sure to receive
recognition and that may mean
more money and less work to
you, because after a while the
toil that seems so hard at first
is going from mere force of
habit to become easier, and
you yourself, by doing good
work arealwayssmoothing out
the pathway of the future.
Make Ihe drudgery divine und
don't call it drudgery. Do what
your liHiids find to do with a
kind heart and don't think that
you are the only one the world
that has to work to earn her
daily bread, but be thankful
that (iod lias given you ability
with which to do it.
The girl who expects love to
come after marriage is apt to bump
up against a real disappointment.
RECORD OF A

Hooper, Nebraska.-"! am very glad
to tell how Lydia E. Pinkham 'a Vegetable

I suffered from female troubles so I was
scarcely able to do my work. 1 took doc.
tors' medicines and used local treatments
but was not helpeJ. I had such awful
bearing down pains and my back was so
weak 1 could hardly wulk and could not
ride. 1 often had to si t up nights to sleep
and my friends thought 1 could not live
long. At my request my husband got
me a bottle of I.ydia E. rin'uiam s Veg
etable Compound and I commenced to
take it By the time 1 hud taken the
seventh bottle my health had returned
and 1 began doing my wadiing and was a
well woman. Atone time lor Uiree weeks
I did all the work for eighteen boarders
with no signs of my old trouble return
ing. Many have taken your medicine
after seeing what it did for me. I would
not take $1000 and be where 1 was. You
have my permission to use my name if
it will aid anyone. -Mrs. SUSIE I EM
PLETON, Hooper, Nebraska.

" I had been troubled, a little, for newly 7 yean," wrltte
Mrs. L Finchor, In a letter from Peavy, Ala., "but I was
not taken down, until March, when I went to bed and had
to havo a doctor. He did all he could for me, but I got no
better. I hurt all over, and I could not rest At last, I tried
Cardul, and soon I began to improve. Now I am In rery
good health, and abla to do all my housework."
Cardui
You may wonder why Cardui is so successful, after
other remedies have failed. The answer Is that Cardui Is
successful, because it is composed of scientific Ingredients,
that act curatively on the womanly system. It is a medicine
for women, and for women only. It builds, strengthens, and
restores weak and ailing women, to health and happiness.
If vou suffer like Mrs.
will surely do for you, what It did for her. At all druggists.

AFTER
We take our share of freuing,
Of grieving and forgetting;
The paths are often rough and steep, and heedless feel may fall.
But yet the days are cheery,
And night brings rest when weary,
And somehow this old planet is a good world alter all.
Sharp may be our trouble,
The joys are more than double.
The brave outrank the cowards, and the leal are like a wall
To guard their dearest ever,
To fail the feeblest never;
And somehow this old earth remains a bright world, after all.
There's always love that's caring,
And shielding and forbearing,
Dear woman's love to hold us close and keep our hearts in thrall;
There's home to share together
In calm or stormy weather,
And while the heari-llame burns it is a good world, after all.
The lisp of children's voices,
The chances of happy choices,
The bugle sounds of hope and fuiih through fogs and mists thai call;
The heaven that stretches o'er us,
The better days before us,
They all unite to make this earih a good world, after all.
Margaret li. Sangsier.
THE C088IP.
A rose in my garden, the sweetest and fairest,
Was hanging her head through ihe long golden hours;
And early one morning I saw her tears falling,
And heard a low, gossiping talk in the bowers.
The yellow Nasturtium, a spinster all faded,
Was telling a Lily what ailed the poor Rose;
"That wild roving Bee, who was hanging about her
Has jilted her squarely, as everyone knows.
I knew when he came, with his sighing and singing,
His airs and his speeches, so fine and so sweet,
Just how it would end; but none would believe me,
For all were quite ready to fall at his feet."
"Indeed you are wrong," said the Lilybelle, proudly,
"I cared nothing for him. He called on me once,
And would have come often, no doubt, if I'd asked him,
But, though he was handsome, I thought him a dunce."
"Now, now, that's not true," cried the tall Oleander,
"He has travelled and seen every flower that grows;
And one who has supped in the garden of princes,
We all might have known, would wed with the Rose."
"But wasn't she proud when he showed her attention?
And she let him caress her," said sly Mignonette.
And I used to see it and blush for her folly,
The silly thing thinks he will come to her yet."
"I thought he was splendid," said pretty, pen Larkspur,
"So dark and so grand, with that gay cloak of gold;
But he tried, once, 10 kiss me, the impudent fellow,
And I got ott'ended; 1 thought him too bold."
"Oh, fie !" laughed the Almond. "Thai does for a story
Though I hang down my head, 1 sec all that goes;
And I saw you reach out, trying hard io detain him.
But he just tapped your cheek and Hew by to the Rose
"He cared nothing for her, he only was Mining
To while away time, as every one knew;
So I turned cold shoulder to all his advances,
Because I was certain his heart was untrue."
"The Rose it served right for her folly in trusting
An oily-tongued stranger," quoth proud Columbine.
"I kr.ew what he was, and thought once 1 would warn her,
Bui, of course, the affair was no business of mine."
"Oh, well," cried the Peony, shrugging her shoulders,
"I saw all along that the Bee was a flirt;
Bui the Rose has been always so praised and so petted
I thought a good lesson would do her no hurt."
Just then came a sound of a love-song sung sweetly;
I saw my proud Rose lilting up her bowed head,
And the talk of the gossips was hushed in a moment,
And the flowers all listened to hear what was said.
And the dark, handsome Bee, with his cloak o'er his shoulder,
Came swift through the sunlight and kissed the Rose,
And whispered: "My darling, ve roved the world over,
And you are the loveliest blossom that grows."
-Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

HOW TO LOOSEN A SCREW.
A rusted screw may be readily
loosened if heat is applied to the
head of the screw. A small bar
or rod of iron, flat at the end, if
reddened in the fire and applied
two or three minutes to the screw,
will render its withdrawal as easy
as if the screw had only just been
inserted.
He who lays out each day with
prayer leaves it with praise.
The man who always has the
sins of others before him puts his
own in his pocket.
