sYuesdsys-At Home" raised the card
And read the greeting once again,
sd felt once more within my heart
A thrill OF pleasure, all but pain
] saw rs in passing dream
A laughing face in red-gOid hair.
That just one little year ago
Was in my eyes the face most fair.
I'm back beside the summer sea.
With blue-eyed Maud upon the sand;
] gaze into her winsome face,
/ hold once more her little hand.
] whisper honeyed words of love
With many q sigh and tender look,
And there beside the sad sea waves
once again am ''coldly shook.
And now she sends this tinted card
With many q m sstic meaning fraught,
] read. Jou see, betwiyt the lines
I've learned the lesson that she taught
And though the perfume that it sheds
Brings memories OF other scenes,
eye it with q cynic smile.
n 1 know, too well, just what il means
II means softly shaded room,
And Maud ALTERED in witching gown
With regal coils OF golden hair,
And tender eyes cast Shyly down.
If means the low, imperiOus tones
With which she used, of Old TO rule;
A whispered word, a sigh, a tear
Ii means an eVeriasting fool
Ali Msud-you sent il all too late,
This dainty card of coiCrs rare

FEARLESS CRUELTY

it is to delude poor sufferer into the belief
that some worthless liniment will cure rheu-
matism and neuralgia. Honesty is the best
policy In the manufacture OF proprietary ar
ticlesas i'm all other matters, and the fact that
the propriet0rs of AthlophOros have never
claimed for it even all its merit would war
rant has not 4 little To do with It's wonderful
popularity, and the thousands of grateful
testimonials received by them show that
their policy has been wise Is well rs right.
Experience has amply demonstrated
that mere outward applications are worth
less. The disease has its seat in the blood,
and any remedy To be successful must deal
with the obstructive acid which poisOns
and infames it.
AthlophOros acts on the blood, mnscles
and joints directly. 1t takes the poison
out of the blood AMI carries il out of the
system; it invigorates the action OF the
muscles and limbers the stiffness OF the
Joints. Ii reaches the liver and kidneys,
cleansing them from irritating substances,
and. If followed up after the rheumatic
conditions cease, it will restore these organs
to regularity and health.
DIR. w. ID. Bryant, Gainesville, No., saws:

lady. She had not taken all the bottle be-
fore she was so far restored, rs To- resume
her household duties. She had been con-
fined to her he'd for three weeks, unable to-
turn herself The disease was inhamma-
tory rheumatism. She has not had a re-
currence of it since. Athlophoros is all
that is claimed for it,
+. Moore, Stahl, Mo-, saws: "FOur bot
ties of AthlophOroS cured me of rheuma-
tism two wears ago, and | have not felt
pain or ache since"
Every druggist should keep AthlOph Oros
and AthlophOrOS Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlo-
phoros Co, 1l2 Wall St., New York, viii
send either carriage paid on receipt of
regular price, which is Sl.00 per bottle

There il is" the Young man said,
'these figures are a. low a. they can
possibly be made, and bv the time YOU
got your house furnished 1900 at
least will bc gone. It's all right to
talk about starting in cheaply, but
would like to know how man is go
ing To. If he don't own the house he
lives in there is rent to pay. You will
see that those figures only provide for
the furnishing of three rooms, and
young couple just starting in wants at
least four. This love-in-a-cottage bus
mess. where the only furniture consists
of bed. pine table, two chairs, a
stove and lamp, may be all right for
some people, but don't want to mar
ry any girl and then take her to place
like that. sMy ideas are not at all ex-
travagant, but l do believe in having
things comfortable and 10 4 certain de-
gree nice. do not think il is just to
take a woman from comfortable
house and place her in an almost bare
house, where she will have 10 scrimp
and deny herself every thing i'm order
that she and her husband will not have
10 apply to the city for aid. 1t is an
Outr..g 10 do so. and no fair minded
man will do so.
MANY people live OH q salary of
less than forty dollars month and yet
manageto save money" suggested the
young mans friend.
That may be, but in nine eases out
of ten you will find that such persons
do rot live-they merely exist. And
in the other case the parents of the
wife generally stand ready TO step in
and make good any deficiency. Sup
pose sman is drawing sal

dollars a month. Ont of that he
