Don't Fret,

1t only adds to your burdens to
fret. Towork hard is very we'll, but
to work hard and worry too is more
than human nature can bear.
ooh, mother, I'm sure the dress
maker will disappoint mel" cries Miss
Fidget, ssand how can [ go to the
party in my old dress that I've worn
hundreds of times?"
Then she frets until she cries, and
when the dressmaker sends the dress
in good season, all the fretting and
worrying has been wasted.
sThere is no use trying to make a
toboggan," says Fred Fidget, II

Then he makes a toboggan, and
being a good workman, turns out a
very respectable affair. But at every
stroke he frets over his work,
he sees failure and disaster al
ways in front of him. and when the
toboggan is finished and is a success
herealizes, with shame, how foolish
he has been

Morphy Beat Satan.

In the autumn of 1861. Morphy,
then on his way to the Confederate
army near Manassas, was invited by
the Rev. r. R. Harrison, of Richmond
to spend the evening with a number
of other distinguished guests at his
residence. After supper, while they
were assembled in the parlors, atten-
ton was called to a colored engrav-
ing entitled "Jen d'Echecs," which
was hanging in the room. It repre-
sented Satan, in style and dress af-
ter the German idea Of Mephisto-
pheles, engaged in a game Of chess
with a young man. The board lay
on a tomb, and the guardian angel
Of the youth looked down with sad
ness and interest upon the position
Of the pieces on the board. The
young mans pieces represented the
manly virtues, and many of them
had already been captured. Satan S
pieces represented the tempting vices.
The position of the engraving was
one that had often been studied with
care by the Richmond players, and
the young mans game was regarded
as hopeless. The position was set up
in Morphy's presence, and he asked if
the position was correct. After care
full comparison of the position on the
board and in the engraving, he was
answered in the affirmative. Morphy
then remarked, in his quiet but al
ways dignified manner, that he be-
lieved he could take the young mans
position and win the game All
those who knew anything OF chess
expressed surprise, but Morphy vim
dicated his belief in a short time.
He took the young mans game and
played against each gentleman in
succession and won. The devil had
no chance against the genius of Paul

Cabbage in Half an Hour.

For the benefit of the mothers
who may think either I or the cook
ing school have gone astray on the
matter Of cooking cabbage, [ want
to emphasize here the advantage Of
the new way over the old. [ was as
skeptical over the notion of cabbage
being properly cooked in halfan hour
as any one of you can be; but my
first experiment corrected me, and
all who tasted this lnaligned vegeta-
BILE served after the new method de-
clared themselves surprised. Have
plenty of salted, boiling water, in
which teaspoonful Of soda has been
dissolved, plunge the cabbage in, top
downward. leave it uncovered and
| ct it boil until tender; that will be
as given in the timetable, from
twenty minutes to half an hour.
Take it out iuto a colander, drain
well, put into hot dish, put in bits
of butter, some salt and pepper, and
serve at once. 1t will be ais delicate
as cauliflower; the color will be re-
tanned, and there will not be an I'M
pleasant odor over the house, such
as is always associated with boiling
cabbage. Try it once, and then see
| if the school kitchen learning has not
gotten several steps in advance of
your old traditional methods. Wide

An Egg Thief.

J. i. McCloud. of Omaha, has been
missing eggs from his barn for some
time past, and the other day he found
out by mere accident. He says: st
was standing in the barn the other
morning when a hen came cackling
from her nest in a Manager and a few
moments after a big rat came from
his hole, ran across the barn and
climbed into the manger. / could
hear him and was idly watching to
see what he was doing, wheny you can
imagine my surprise to see him roll

many efforts he finally succeeded.
paused there, gathering the egg up
under his "chin; "herolled himself
pletely around it, resembling the form
of a hedge hog when alarmed, then
he deliberately rolled over the edge
of the manager and dropped square
" on his back on the floor, two feet
below, thus saving the egg whole.
Immediately he began to squeal with
all his strength, and just as was
starting to put him outofhis misery,
thinking be had broken his back in
the fall, two other rats appeared on
the scene. They ran upsto the first
one as he laid on the floor, and each

PARALLEL LINES.

Every student knows that in close
reasoning parallel lines Of thought
are laid down and deductions educed.
1t IS not our purpose at this time to
enter into a learned discussion, and
we have drawn the above visible lines
simply to bring them prominently
before your eye and to ask what they
represent to you.
Arailroad man to whom we showed
them said, sTo me those four lines re-
present a doubIe-track railway
A doctor replied to the same inter
rogatory, 'The lines are to me the
large arteries and veins lying
alongside each other in the human
body"
AS will be observed the same lines
to either gentleman suggested differ
ent lines OF thought, as both looked
at them through eyes accustomed
to see only that which tor the most
part occupied their attention. To
the writer both answers put an, old
truth in a fresh and original light.
AS every intelligent man or woman
knows, the blood of every living per-
son flows with almost railroad speed
through the arteries, forced by that
wonderful engine, the heart. From
the arteries it is side tracked through
the capilliaries and veins, and every
drop OF blood goes through the kid
neys for publication no less than
$500 times every twenty-four
hours. Ifthe kidneys be diseased the
Impurities of the blood containing
the worn out tissues, and deleterious
acids are not drawn out or excreted
as nature intended, but continually
pass and repass through every fiber
OF the system. carrying death and de-
cay with every pulsation. Unless
remedied the heart becomes weaken
ed, the lungs trying to do double
work break down, the liver becomes
congested, the stomach refuses to di-
gest food and the result is a general
break down.
Why?
Because the kidneys, the sewers of
the system, are foul and stopped up,
and the entire blood becomes nothing
more nor less than sewage.
Now isitnot criminal, nay, suicidal,
to allow such state of things to
continue when a simple remedy is
within your reach, known for GER
tainty to do as represented, which
will open the closed pipes of the kid
neys, allow the effete matter to es-
cape, relieve the overworked heart,
lungs and liver, cause healthy APP
petite, put the bloom of health in
your cheek, the dove of hope in your
breast and the light of life in your
eye?
You already have OWNED the rem
edy we have reference to; it's praise is
universal, it's influence world wide.
Do not allow prejudice to blind you
to your best interests, but to-day
procure Warmers safe cure and be
put on the straight road to rude
health and correct living.
Our parallel and closing lines to
you are, take our advice and your
experience will justify you in thank
ing us for bringing under your no.
tice a remedy without a parallel.
