wholcxome truth 1 eater day he ex
plained why aaaioelida had for mur·
than a century been known ai an
absolute preventive againut children'»

"Tic a biff hunk of thic «tuff to a

child'· neck and thon Mod him out
to play. Emm other child who cornel
within fifty feot of him will tarn up
hi* no»e, stick ont hu tongue and run

Harvey aever allow* a inrtomrr—
or any body elan—to araekc a certain
popular brand of cherooU in hi» atore.
He «HI* them, but U obdurate when

One container thought it unjuct that

by a peculiar proce*· nt ruwininf,
the druggist convinccd him other

for the laat few day* a particularly
fat and fluffy Malteae kitten lolling
under the ioUa tablet, but few know
how »hr waa acquired. Aa Harvey
tella It a striking example of the
high cost of living it given Junt a*
b* wai about in cto<e up une nipht
three week* ago a little waif of a
kitten naggercd out of the darknc.-i».
wailing aa heart-brokenly and hungri

Aero»* the *tre4t the dim light* of
a grocery were blinking. In hio pock
et η jitney jingled againrt th« Won·

pell-known love of eheeac· Meantime
ι he kitten continued to wail. So
icrow the itrvet he ehut-d. Rcxpect·
fully ht a>ki-d the grocer to be per

number had been reduced to 3,100,
a difference of 660. This reduction,
considering the steady increase in
population during the past four years,
means an even greater proportionate

Careful observations and experi

ratio of active opea cases of tubercu

THE BROTHERHOOD OF BETTER THINGS
H« dreamed of a better city, he longed for a fairer fame
For the home of hia daily labor*, and he talked.of a
brighter name
For th« scenes of hi* children'· playtime, and the place
of hid children's birth.
And he talked as a man who loved hia town and was
proud of his splendid worth.
He toTd of her needs as he saw them, to him were her
feelings known;
And he wante dto build for her greatness—but he
couldn't do it alone.
He was one of the many thousands who dreamed of a
better day.
With visions of greater splendors when they should
have passed away.
And each in his dream, unselfish, could picture a dis
tant goal,
Whan his city would rise in beauty and thrub as a
living soul.
But the dn-ame would have come and vanished, and
the vision from earth have down
Had each of the dreamers tried to work for his çity'a
fame alone.
You may think groat thoughts for the future, you may
fashion and build and plan.
But you never shall see your dreams made real, save
you work with your fellow man.
And never a greater city shall spring into being here
Save that many have labored together its fame to
rear.
Out of the hearts of our fellows has all of our great
ness grown.
Together they stood for this purpose—for no one
could do it alone
Stand off by yourself with your dreaming, and all of
your dreams are in vain,
No splendor of soul or structure can man by himself
attain ;
"Tie willed wc shall dwell as brothers, as brothers,
then, must we toil.
We must share in α common purpose, as we share in
a common soil.
And each who would see accomplished the dreams he
U proud to own.
Must strive for the goal with his fellows—for he
cannot reach it alone.
