MARGARET K. SANG8TER. We take our share of fretting, Of grieving and forgetting; The paths are often rough and steep, and heedless feet may fall; But yet the days are cheery, And night brings rest when weary, And somehow this good old planet is a good world, after all. Though sharp may, be our trouble, The joys are more than double, The brave - surpass the cowards, and the leal are like a wall To guard their dearest ever, To fail the feeblest never; And somehow this old world 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 keeps our hearts in thrall ; There's home to share together In calm or stormy weather, And while the hearth-flame burns it is a good world, after all. The lisp of children's voices, The chances of happy choices, The bugle's sounds of hope and faith, through forge and mists that call ; The heaven that stretches o'er us, The better days before us, They all combine to make this earth a good world, after all.

' - Tti8 Kind Yob Haw Always fl BVDBEJ Ull I BTNEXXTE J. NOTES. ? John and. Millie Thompson had been married but four years when a financial panic came, and the firm for which John worked closed its doors, with several oth er business houses in the town of Bren- ville.- , ' John's wages had, by dint of careful management, little more than paid the family expenses. What to do was the question he pon iered as he walked home that first night with the discouraging news. Even 2-year-old Madeline could not bring the usual smile to the father's face, and. as the "little mother" came to the door she Raw by her husband's face that the dreaded crash had come. . Long into the night they sat and tried to think of some plan by which their lit1 tie home, which had meant so much of sacrifice and which was now nearly half paid for, might be saved. But neither could think of any plan, and in the morning John started out-with a heavy heart to look for something, any thing honest, to do. But after several days of fruitless search he came home one night and told his wife that one of the other men had just received a letter from a brother in the west urging him to form a party and come out at once to work in a mine which promised rich increase. As the dayS went on one man after another joined the party, and they talk ed enthusiastically to John Thompson of the wealth they were, sure of gaining in a "short time, begging him to go with them. The day -before the party intended leaving for the west John and Millie decided that possibly in a year or two he would be able to make his fortune, and while he was gone she would sup port herself and the child with the needle and by helping the neighbors with their work. As the train bore the men away the next morning Millie Thompson faced the problem of self support for the first time in her life. She soon began to realize that the neighbors were feeling the hard times themselves and were obliged to do their own work, but she struggled bravely on, hoping in a few months to hear from her husband that the mining was a success. But after a few months had passed and letter after letter came with discouraging news, Millie's courage began to fail her. After about a year's struggle she se cured a position as housekeeper in a wid ower's family several miles from the home town. As time went on the letters bringing news of varying success in first one claim and then another became less frequent, until at last they ceased altogether, but Millie kept sending, cheerful letters until she got word that the Brenville party had struck a rein in another state and the men in the old camp had lost sight of them. . . After two years of uncertainty she re ceived a copy of a western paper con taining this item: "Mine explosion! Nine men killed!" Then followed the names of the dead, and among them John Thomp son. The last blow proved too much for Mil lie's health, and she was obliged to give up her position as housekeeper and take some money she had saved and go to an other town several miles away to try to regain her health by resting. Her health improved but little, and she crushed her pride and wrote a letter to her wealthy father in the south, whose wishes she had disregarded in marrying, begging him for the sake of her little girl to forgive her and take her and her child home. , . Her letter was returned with "You have chosen your own course" written across the top. . Several years passed by, and Millie drifted from one place to another, earn ing a little here and there, until she found a home in a country town in northern Vermont, where she could do the village sewing and support in ease herself and Madeline, now 12 years old. Throughout the town the "widow and little Lena" were loved and respected. One afternoon as the child was play ing in a field near the railroad track she heard a rumbling and, looking up, saw to her horror that a huge rock had slid down the opposite hillside directly on the track. Just then she heard the whistle of the daily express. Hurrying up the meadow toward the bend, she snatched the red sun bonnet from her head and waved it at the engineer as the train came speeding toward her. The engineer, thinking something must be wrong, applied the brakes and stopped the train just a few rods from the great rock. There- were but a few passengers on the train, and as they alighted beside frightened child they questioned her as to how she had saved the train. The train hands found they could not move the rock and told the passengers they would not be able to resume their journey that night at least. lhe passengers, thankful for being sav-e(L-asked the child where they could &id lodging for the night, and she di rected them to the village inn. But one kind looking gentleman whom Madeline had noticed stepped op to her and, taking her hand, said: "I want first to tell this little girl's parents that they should be proud of her. Will you show me where you live, my dear?" The child's home was very near, and as she opened the door she said, "Mam ma, this is a" But mamma fainted in the stranger's arms. After she was restored to consciousness his story was soon told. It was another John Thompson that was killed. He had not been able to write his wife, and after becoming comparatively wealthy he . had tried to find her and their child, but had failed. - Taking the child's and wife's hands in his, he said, "And a little child shall lead them."

USE SOME COMMON Take the Only Guaranteed to Effect a Cure! 11(11 FIJIILRD They Are Dropping by the Way While the Great Work of Paine's Celery Com pound Goes Steadily on. If ever a person needs tojBxercise the God-given quality of common sense, it is when he begins to be sick. One can afford to be stupid or. freak ish, or careless and frivolous when well. There is no man so poor, if he has his health, and his nerves are in (rood order, his musles sound, and his stomach normal, who cannot correct his mistakes. But the moment one falls sick when as sure as fate, disease with its mild beginnings, if not promptly checked, is- bound to develop into serious illness there is no longer time to experiment or blunder. The experience of the world has shown that in every case of sickness resulting from impaired nerves and impure blood, Paine's celery com pound does immediate and effective good 1 For the last ten years the thou sands of authentic reports of indi vidual cases have multiplied, until it can be absolutely said that in no one case does this great remedy ever fail to benefit, and if taken promptly, to cure 1 And yet during that time a hundred worthless nostrums under patented catchy names have been foisted upon the public, and some of them for a brief period have had large sales But every one of them having been tried has been found sadly wanting, and af ter their unscrupulous proprietors have made all the money they could in defrauding the well and seriously harming the sick, these quack medi cines and their catchy, silly names have disappeared from vie! There is a concoction being sold in this state to day, where its speculative advertising was begun a year later than in other states, a year or two ago, which has gone the way of its predecessors so rapidly that in eyery section of the country where it was first exploited, the sales have dropped off as rapidly as they begun, and the obscure com pany behind it finds It no longer pos sible, even by the most sensational methods, to create any demand what ever for it. Unlike all these and other such pre- Earations, Paine's celery compound as stood the test of time and experi ence. It is not a patent medicine; it is the discovery of one of the greatest physicians the world has bad, prob ably the most successful practitioner in this country, whose reputation was already established as a specialist in nervous diseases, and who was and is the foremost authority in the world on the diseases of ihe blood and nerves, Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LL. D. As distinguished in his way as his kinsman, that other great Yermonter of the family of Phelps, who as our recent minister to the Court of 8t. James so ably earned the title of diplomat and statesman. In these last ten years, the propri etors of Paine's celery compound have IFTTZZIjIE IN ADDITION TO THE INDIAN IN f Ai-OUBE, A TRAPPER AND ANOTHER INDIAN. CAN YOU FIND THEM?

Remedy That 1 been sending this greatest of. all pre psred remedies to the four quarters of the earth, in larger and larger ship ments, relieving and curing the sick, restoring the weak and depressed to health and strength, making it pos sible for many and many a person to live, who could find no relief in well intended prescriptions, or antiquated and worthless sarsaparillas and nerv ines. ! In these years that' have seen so many quacks come and go, one so called medicine was put up by no more experienced a hand than a pushing Philadelphia real estate dealer ; another has been and is now run in part by a group of sharp newspaper men; another which originated as a pleasant thing for colds, has added not to its virtues, but to its schemes of advertis ing, until it has become in the minds of its projectors a cure for all the ail ments under the sun and such in stances might be multiplied. Don't touch them I . All these have had, or are having their day, while the demand- for America's greatest family remedy a real remedy for real ills an effective tonic and honest invigorator, has not suffered from the attempted substitution of other preparations. Paine's celery compound is a nledicine that cures the sick, and no high class druggist ever attempts to induce a customer to take anything in its stead. Paine's celery compound has gone on steadily gaining in fame these J ears because those who have tried it ave gratefully sung its praises,and in every community in the country have by word of mouth spread its fame. According to the well known ethics of reputable physicians, this prescrip tion was at the very outset freely pre sented to physicians in good standing, and the formula is gladly given them today. For that reason Paine's celery com pound has never been included among patent medicines. Coming from so high a source, and sosaarchingly tried and recommended, physicians have lon employed it as unhesitatingly as they have used their official prepa rations. It drives the poison germs of deep seated disease from the blood. It brings buoyancy of spirit in place of lassitude and despondency. It allows the overtaxed system to start fairly on the road to health. It procures the sleep so necessary to brain and nerve centres. It strengthens. Invigorates. Gives new tone to the system. Makes the blood healthy. Is food for the nerves. It makes people well! Thousands have been benefitted, thousands have heen cured by Paine's celery compound, when everything else has failed. pigttjee.

These fatralons stories you hear," said a Colorado man, "if the wonder ful discoveries made and prices receiv ed for claims In the mining regions bring back to my. mind a story that used to be told in the earlier days of Colorado. "A young chap had there located a claim In which he had every confidence that ore existed, but try as he would he was unable to locate the precious metal, and little by little he became sicker and sicker at heart until at length there came a day whose closing was marked by clean discouragement on his part. His last piece of bacon was eaten, his last stick of gunpowder fired and his credit utterly used up. Still he believed the ore to be there, but he recognized the utter futility on his part of trying further to get at it. Lonely and out of spirits, just at sun set he stood at the door of his cabin loofilng for the last time over the scene of his useless efforts, when down the winding trail came a stranger astride of a broncho. Taking in the sit uation at a glance, the man reined in his cayuse and called out to the lonely figure in the cabin doorway, 'Say, pardner, what will you take for that played out-claim of yours T "Hope sprang up and gleamed from the miner's eyes as he firmly replied: 'Played out nothing. It'll take $1,000, 000 cold to buy me out.' The stranger slowly gathered up the reins. 'I'll give you $8, he said ten tatively. " 'All in cashr queried the late pro spective millionaire eagerly. " 'Yep,' was the response. " The claim's yours,' on the part of the mine owner closed the transac tion." New York Tribune. SAM HOUSTON'S SECRET. Why He 'Left Hit Wife and Joined tbe Cherokee I a Mystery. "A mystery in which the American people were once deeply concerned was that which shadowed the life of one of the most remarkable characters of the country,'.' writes William Perrine In The Ladies' Home Journal. "In 1829 Sauinel Houston, or, as he called and sigucd himself. 'Sam' Houston, - was' goveiaor of Tennessee. It was in the inidt of a campaign for re-election to the KiitH inatorial chair that Tennessee was startled by a report tha't he had resigned his office. He had been mar ried to the daughter of an influential family. Three months afterward she returned to her father's house, and her llushand resolved to pass the rest of his life ill the wilderness. "Houston betook himself to the tribe of Cheiokees in the Indian Territory, lie adopted .Their costume, appearing in all the trappings of an Indian brave, letting his hair grow down his back and visiting Washington with a buck skin hunting shirt, yellow leggings, a huge l)!au!;et and turkey feathers around his head. No one could Induce him to reveal- the secret of his meta morphosis aud his abandonment of the ways and habits of civilization. He married again after he emerged from his Indiau life, and be lived to be an old man. dying in tbe midst of the civil war, but no one was ever able to per suade him to unlock the mystery of his life. Nor would his first wife, who also married again, throw any light on the mystery." Snoese Without Winking-. Bobby t-.TTne home one day covered with dirt and bruises and trundling a broken bicycle.
