Some linits it is"enihamissiiig to till con cerned tor one not jo be able to eat this, that or the other. hy is it thai so many of the old people like corn bread as well or lit tler than biscuit? ll is be cause a long lime ago very little flour was used in this section and they learned to use corn bread al most exclusively. Why is ii that so many people in the coasl coun try of North and South Carolina and Georgia like rice? Because formerly it was grown in the low lauds of these sections and the peo ple learned 10 like ii. In these sec tions people eat also grits or hom iny extensively because before the days of steam mills the small water mills on the linle branches could not grind corn into hue meal and die people learned lo eat pari of ii in hominy instead of bread. Of course there are exceptions lo the rule, but usually people can learn to eai and enjoy what is prepared if an effort is made to do so.

I will give you a plan it is one of my own For making life more delightful : When another is praised for the skill he has shown I don'i become jealous or spiteful; I try lo proceed as I know thai I should In making each moment a glad one, And I always believe in the signs that are good, But I never believe in a bad one. I am glad when the weather is fair; when it's wei I prefer the rainy condition; In each disagreement I hasten lo get i ' A glimpse from the other's posiiion. I can't sing ai all, but my song, if I could, Should not be a solemn or sad one. And I always believe in the signs that are good, ' But I never believe in t bad one.

And always believe in the signs that are good, But never believe in a bad one. LINCOLN'S WIT. I SOLEHUL It was a very high-class board ing house and ihe landlady prided herself on the fact thai the eotiver s.ninn hi tahlr w;is always very in k'llei'tual. "Ii was a strange theory," she remarked, as she wrestled with th- fowl, "that the souls of the dod entered birds and animals. But 1 think our ancestors held that .bvliJ!" I "I'm rattier inclined to think something like that does happen," commented the Quiet man. No, really, Mr. Cutting? How nil icstine ! Ves," said Mr. Cutting "I'm convinced thai this chicken, for inM nice, is inhabited by the sole of .i shoe !" Lincoln was far from being A mere punster,,, yet occasions could bring from him a play on words, usually with a real launh in it; A New York firm, while ne was practicing lav in Spring field, wrote asking him for the facts us to the financial stand ing of a neighbor. He replied as couiiiieiidingly as he could: "I am well acquainted with him, nun know Ins oircuni stanrcs. First of all he han a wife and Imliy; they ought to be worth $"ti,(Mio to any man. Secondly, he has an office in which there me chairs worth, say, $1, and'a table worth $1.60 Last of all there is in one cor- tier a rHt Inile, which in worth looking into. Respectfully, A. Lincoln'.' CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Us For Over 30 Year Slgoaiursof , Minister Warns ot Signs ot the Times Effects ot Ureat vt ar. I That there was a dangerous i tendercy toward cleiiioinli.a j tion ut the present time was I the fear expressed by Rev. Ben jamin Stern, pastor (if Emanuel Reformed church, in an ad dress ut the weekly meeting of the Reformed ministers, One of the most dangerous signs of the times he said, was the de parture from faith of theolo gians and occupanis of Chris tian pulpits, who were so much inflated with their own culture as to open controversies upon the very word of God. Another readiness on the part of many who seem to he relig ious to swallow the latest fads anil isms in the way of dogma. The mail race fur pleasure ut the present time was another sign of demoralization, he said. Every one seemed to be bent upon his or her own enjoyment for which the playhouse und the movie had an important part in the day's plan. "Why," said the speaker, "the movies are crowded to the doors, es pecially by the women. The other day I heard of a woman who, being told she could not survive a spell of sickness, de plored that she had to give up the movies." The great conflict in Europe, the speaker said, was a very ominous sign of the times. On this subjoct, he said, no one, no matter how extensive his knowledge, could foresee the end. It looked from the way the interest of the war had cen tered about the Balkans that the prophecy of the 10 king doms of the revived Roman Empire would be revived. "It is reasonable to suppose," said Mr. Stern, "thatsome great development will accrue from the reported disagreements of the allied powers about Saloni ki." The speaker said tluat it looked as if the peace of Eu rope would only be brought about hy pressure without. "It may he," he said, "that i lie map of Europe may be an other great United States, from Britnin to the Persian nations, and the events of the years suc ceeding it, will be of tremen dous importance to the whole world." Mr. Stern said he had no idea that Ihe European conflict was any sign of the nearness of the world, but there was every in dication that the great conflict was that mentioned in the prophecies as being prior to a reconstruction of the world, fol lowing the coming of Christ. Philadelphia Record. PARTICULAR SPOT. "Did the prisoner strike you in the height of exasperation ?" v "No, sir, jusi between ihe eyes." WHY IS IT? "That a legless man can "put his foot in ii?" Thai persons who are "con sumed by curiosity" still survive? Thai frequently a sinking fund is used lo meet a floating debt? Thai straining ihe voice is npt the proper way to make it clearer? That we speak of a stream run ning dry when the only way it can run is wel ? That wives should expect their husbands to fool ihe hills without kicking? That we talk of some one "go ing straight to the devil" when he has lo be crooked to go there? LIKE SOME OTHERS.

Every druggist in town your druggist and everybody's druggist has noticed a great falling-otf in the sale of calomel. They all give the Mine reason. Dodsou's Liver Tone is taking its place. "Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better re sults," said a prominent local drug gist. Dodson s Liver Tone is per sonally guaranteed by every drug gist who sells it.
