SHE DID NOT KNOW MOTHER
Tsacher Received an Unexpected Re
ply From Parent pf Boy Sh
Had Punished.
Boys will be boys, except when
they are little wretches, and Tommy
was no exception.
He had broken one of the school
rules, and the teacher told him to tell
his mother about it, and also about
the punishment he had received.
This was foxy of teacher. She
thought mother might thrash him
again.
"Well, Tommy, did you tell your
mother about your bad behavior yes
terday, aud how I punished you ?"
"Yes, miss," replied Tommy
quickly.
"Well, what did your mother
say?" was teacher's next question.
"Said she'd like to wring your
neck," replied Tommy calmly.
HIGH SEAS.
The high seas embrace the open
sea so far as it is not the exclusive
property of any particular country.
The rule of international law i8
that every country bordering on the
sea has the exclusive sovereignty
over such sea to the extent
of three miles from its shores,
but all beyond, not within three
miles of some other country, is open
or common to all countries. The
part of the sea within three miles'
distance is generally called the terri
torial sea of the particular country,
or "mare clausum." The distinction
has little effect on the right of
navigation, but as regards fishing it
is otherwise. Thus, foreign fisher
men have no right to fish, within
three miles of the British coast with
out a license from the crown, or un
less some special treaty has laid
down other arrangements.
WOMAN AS CENSOR.
The three commissioners govern
ing Birmingham, Ala., under the
Hew regime, found themselves entire
ly too busy to heed the insistent ap
peal of the various woman's clubs
that the moving pictures exhibited in
the city be carefully and continu
ously supervised. So they appointed
the private secretary of one of the
commissioners to act .as censor. Her
duty requires that she see every new
play brought into the theaters, and
exclude whatever, in her judgment,
offends.
.So far the plan hag worked well,
and the new censor declares it is
rather a rest to bar to visit one a
day, going at the noon hour from
her busy office. From the Delinea

A Simple Sermon.
There's only one method of ineetin'
life's test;
Jes' keep on a-strivin' an' hope fur the
best.
Don't give up the game an' retire in
dismay
'Cause hammers are thrown when
you'd like a Tsoquet.
This world would be tiresome, we'd
" all get blues
If all the folks in it held just the same
view;
So finish your work; show the best
of your skill.
Some folks won't like it, but other
folks will.
If you're leadin' an army, or buildin'
a fence.
Do the most that you kin with your
own common sense.
One small word of praise in this
journey of tears
Outweighs in the balance 'gainst cart
loads of sneers.
The plants that we're passin' as com
monplace weeds
Oft prove to be jes' what some sufferer
needs.
So keep on a-goin'; don't stay stand
in' still.
Some folks won't like you. but other
folks will.

Dr. King's New Discovery and give it
to the little ones when ailing and suf
fering with colds, coughs, throat or

Buy it at J. E. Shell & Co.
Many a man is disgusted when
he gives a poor widow a $10 bill
on the sly and she fails to talk
about it.
This is the season of the year when
mothers feel very much concerned
over the frequent colds contracted by
their children, and have abundant
reason for it as every cold weakens
the lungs, lowers the yitality and
paves the way for the more serious
diseases that so often follow.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
famous for its cures, and is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by all
dealers.
Perhaps some men run into
debt because they can't make
themselves remembered any
other way.

HOW ONE
WOMAN WON
Her Health and Strength Back
Again by The Use of CarduL
Tampa, Fla. In a letter from this
city, Mrs. E. C. Coram writes: "I was
all weakened and worn out with wo
manly troubles. My husband brought
me some Cardnl as a tonic, and, from
the first day, it seemed to help.
I had almost lost my reason, but,
thanks to Cardul, I did not Soon, I
felt and looked like a new woman. I
think the remedy Is wonderful. I
recommend it to my friends, for I hare
received great benefit from it"
Cardul acts specifically on the weak
ened womanly organs, strengthening
the muscles and nerves, and building
them up to health.
It helps to refresh-the worn-out ner
tous system and relieves the effects oC
overwork, both mental and physical.
Fifty years' successful use fully
prove the merit of this purely vege
table, tonic remedy for women.
In every community, there live soma
who have been benefited by Cardul.
The beneficial effects of this time
tested woman's remedy, soon show
themselves in many different ways.
