TRUE ECONOMY OF LIFE.

The true economy of human life looks at
ends rather than incidents, and adjusts ex-
nenditures to a moral scale of values. DE
Quincy pictures a woman sailing over the
water, awakening out of sleep to lind her
necklace united and one end hanging over
the strerm. while pearl after pearl drops
from the string beyond her reach; While
she clutches at one just falling, announcer
drops beyond recovery. Our days drop one
after another by our carelessness, like pearls
from a string, as we sail the sea OF Lille.
Prudence requires a wise husbanting OF
time to see that none of these golden COINS
are spent tor nothing. The vast OF time is
q more serious loss than the ~extravagancies
aeaints which there is such loud acclaim.
There are thousands who do nothing put
lounge and carouse from morning till mid
night-drones in the human hive, VINO con-
sumo. and waste, and wear what honest
hands accumulate, and entice others to i've
as useless and worthless lives as they DO

STUMP-SPEECHES.

Judge Mitchell, a noted public man, who
formerly lived in Tennessee. was once cleo
tioneering tor a seat in the State legislature.
AT a mass-meeting, Col. Dupree, the oppos-
ing candidate, said something which the
Judge mercilessly ridiculed. "Judge Mitch
ell" exclaimed the colonel, growing angry,
G so soon as you descend from the stand, [
will whip YOU"
every possibly you may" coolly re-
sponded the Judge J" butt will make known
to you that your doing so is not at all likely
to give you success in the pending canvass,
or prove your ability to make laws; for
recollect that when l lived in East Tennes-
see. nv father had a bull that could whip
any other bull in the neighborhood; but |
never heard it said that he could legislate."
The Judge, who was a famous stump
speaker. protested to have made an impor-
tant discovery in the art OF making an cleo
Pioneering harrangue. "The speaker he
was in the habit Of saying. "should avoid
making a single distinct point. An cleo
pioneering speech should be blown up like a
bladder, leaving no handle to be seized by
his adversary"
We know not how much the judges sugg-
oestion is acted upon by political speakers.
Rnt the method is a safe one. Fol ne who
neither asserts a fact nor states q propesh
ton is not easily refuted..

tea-drinkers of Russia, the Chinese and the
old women of America, who have so long
continued the habit Of drinking strong tea
Are they not dark-colored and leather
skinned? When young they were fair CON-
plexioned.

A COWARD BECOMES A HERo.-John
earn Hobhouse, a member of the House OF
Commons, once told an anecdote to illus
trate the wonderful influence of circum-
stances in forming character. He and Lord
Byron travelled in Greece in 1910. They
had an Athenian servant named Demetrius.
His excessive timidity, which often sank in
to cowardice, furnished them with much
amusement. They used to set him on q
spirited horse, that ran away with him, and
Demetrius would shrek with terror. The
barking of a dog made him scream with
fear. Yet ONE years after, this very man
became one of the chiefs of the Greek revo-
luton. In 1922 he led the assault on Ath-
ems, and, after prodigies of valor, took that
city from the Turks.

The great art in life is to, play much,

Hours are golden lfaaks-God's token

There are more fools than wise men

Prefer loss before gain, for that brings
grief but once, this forever.
Our own heart, and not other mems

Many delight more in giving: of pres

Days arc bubbles on the stream Of time

A honest man is believed without oath,

IF you can live free from want, care for

ard flying. By degrees the princess OF
Wales and her ciildreu.werc distinguish
ed amid the crowd OH herdeck. Close to
Yarmouth the Scraps slowed, and the
Enchantress, altering her course, came
down toward her passing close to her
port side. Then the crew from the rig
ging, the officers on the decks. and all
the gentlemen and others on board the
Scraps. led.by Capt. Glyn. gave three
cheers and ;sw cheers more,
| which proved that their constitu-
lions were not affected by the climate OF
India The band played "lfome, Swee.
Home" the marines presented arms, and
as the royal yacht rounded the stern Of
the Scraps and came up on her starboard
quarter, and as every one could see the
princess and her children, men confessed
tina, they felt little inclination to gulp
down something in their throa,-. The
Scraps anchored at ii am. the barge
was lowered. and Immediately the prince.
attended by few Of his suite. embarked,
and was rowed of to the Enchantress.
1t may be imagined with what JOY he
was welcomed there by those he loved.
In quarter of an hour or 80 the princess
Of Wales aud the royal children left the
yacht and came on board the Sarapis.
The band was drawn up on the main
deck, the officers in full uniform, tho ma

The history OF n Plaster.

Years ago the Rubber porors Plaster
was recognized ~ useful aud efficient
external remedy, possessing peculiar
merits different from anything ever
known or used for q like purpose before.
The reasons why II became so popular
were these First, it was discovered that
rubber was the natural reservoir of cleo
tricity, and, consequently. possessed
great curative properties. Second, when
rendered soft aud pliable IL became con-
venent base for the best external stimu-
lahts. Third, it could be worn without
soiling the clothing or causing the wearer
any inconvenience. Like all new inventions
il was not perfect but capable OF improve
ments. These improvements have
been made in BENSON'S CAPCINE
POROUS PLASTER. The great ohjec-
ton ever found to the porous plasters by
physicians and The public has been that
its action Is not prompt or decided
enough. The introduction of Capcinc
into n porous plaster overcomes this OBJ
lection entirely. 1t causes il to act i'm
medately. and to cure in less time and
with more certainty than the ordinary
| article. BENSON'S CAPCINE POR-
! OUS PLASTER is truly remarkable
article. IL ls prepared by GrBi OF skill
led pharmaceutical chemists, who have
flau large experience IN manufacturing
various kinds of plasters and liniments
for the surgeons aud hospitals of this and
| other countries.
This plaster, the result OF their ex-
periments and study, is indorsed By the
best physicians as greatly superior TO or
! binary porous plaslers and liniments, and
as being the best remedy that could pos
sibiy devised for rheumatism, lame and
weak backs, pains in the side and chest,
or any Of the troubles for which porous
! plaster or liniment has been used. Pco-
| pie suffering from stubborn colds will
lind that it affords them great relief by
wearing one OH the breast. The secret Of
| BENSON'S CAPCTNE PLASTER il
| its marvellous influence over the circula-
| ton. II strengthens aud relieves pain
| almost from the moment of Its applica-
! ton. Let any one who il skeptical OF
