The cry for rest has always been louder
than the cry for food, not that it is more
important. but is often harder to obtain.
The best rest comes from sound sleep. OF
two men or women, otherwise equal, the
one who sleeps the best will be the most
moral, healthy and efficient, Sleep will do
much to cure irritability of temper, peev-
ishness and uneasiness. 1t will restore to
yigor an overworked brain. 1t will build
up and make strong weary body. twill
cure a headache Indeed. we might mako
a long list Of nervous and other maladies
that sleep will cure. The cure of sleep
lessness requires clean, good bed, SUM-
eient exercise TO produce weariness, pleas
ant occupation, good air, not too warm
room, clear conscience and avoidance Of
stimnlants and narcotics For those who
are overworked, haggard and nervous, who
pass sleepless nights, we recommend the
adoption Of such habits as shall secure
sleep, otherwise life win be short, and
what there is of It sadly imperfect. = Msds-

THE TEN-CEST REBATE CHECK.

The 10-cent rebate check that every rail-
road passenger has grown familiar with in
recent years may soon become thing of
the past. The rebate, or duplex ticket, as
it is more properly called, is given by the
passenger conductor to every traveller who
pays his fare in cash, and is good for ten
cents at any ticket office of the company,
this ten cents representing the oyercharge
exacted from those who fail to buy a
ticket
A Pittsburg Common Pleas Judge has
struck what may prove to be death blow
to the system. Lawyer Reese, of the
smoky city, was elected from Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad train because, although he
had no ticket, he refused to pay the con-
ductor the additional ten cents, and he at
once tested the rights of the case in Court.
Judge Ewing has just awarded $3.50 dam
ages, holding that in the particular in
stance under consideration the exsction of
ten cents extra made the rate per mile
higher than the law allowed. This ruling
1Otc BOb AN1tooaAIy ANEW b44C ItO@AC g
tenn in itself, since the additional ten cents
does not always raise the fare above legal
rate, but the railroad company will appeal
the case and seek another decision in the
higher Court.
Twenty five years ago or thereabouts the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad intro
duced the rebate system. Prior to that
time those who paid their fares in cash
were charged as much as twenty-five cents
additional, all of which was retained by
the company. ''But this was done away
with, J" explained General Passenger Agent
Hancock lately, because there was
nothing to prevent our employees from
pocketing what they took in, and the day
of rebate checks began
''The duplex ticket system was cstab-
lished on the United Railroads of New
Jersey about twelve years ago, said Chief
Clerk Pile, of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Passenger Department, s'and on the rest
of the system about five years ago. The
beauty of the scheme is that when cash
fare is paid and the passenger receives a
check he will present it for redemption-in
90 eases out Of 100. The check is then in
our possession, and we can assure our
selves that the conductor turned over the
fate to the company
An official of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad stated that until very recently
the custom of the company had been to
make no extra charge in the case of cash
fares, but for the sake of self-protection
the duplex system was put in force. II the
Courts shall demolish the system, railroad
officials will be at their wits end to devise
workable substitute, but ingenuity is
likely to triumph in the end.

THE BIRD WITH a BRokEN WING

l walked in the woodland meadows,
Where sweet the thrushes sing,
And found on a bed of mosses
\ bird with broken wing.
l healed its wound, and each morning
1t sang its old, sweet strain.
But the bird with the broken pinion
Never scared as high again.
| found young Lie. broken
By sins seductive art,
And touched with Christ-like pity,
took him to my heart.
He lived with noble purpose,
And struggled not in vain,
But the Life that sin had stricken
Never scared as high again.
But the bird with a broken pinion
Kept another from the snare,
And the life that sin had stricken
Raised another from despair.
Each loss has its compensation,
There are heaIings for every pain,
But the bird with broken pinion
Never scars as high again.

'TwERE VAIN.

Think not Ia please all men, strive as you
will,
'Twere vain, impossible; TOR there remaineth
The man whom naught can please or satisfy,
BY noble effort or by full endeayor,
By warmest impulse in no way whatever
OF such as he set heart and mind at ease:
Go on thy way, and take no heed of these,
For so twill be forever
Let not thy soul be troubled that they say:
"lIe might have done this thing, or that, a
betterway''
Mayhap thy way is best-how can they know.
or see
With thine own eyes, what seemest best TO
thee?
Check the quick tear that steals into thine
Because one rndely speaks; keep back the
sigh,
Nor pale thee so:
For they will call it weakness who stand by;
Though well know
IL tells no weakness on thy earnest part
Nor loss of manhood. ,Tis only that thou art
Too eager for approval, and that what thou do
should please all others as it pleaseth you.
No more than this thou askest of just praise,
So willing thou to do thy best always.
Bnt thou must quaT all drees of bitterness,
Before thy soul can know supreme Success.

BE QUIET AMONG BEES.

When among bees let your movements
be deliberate, and do not appear to fear
them, says G. NJ. Doolittle. an expert api-
artist and authority. Quick, nervous
movements the bees resent. If bee is
troublesome and you wish to retreat, put
up your hands quietly and shield your
face, as You quietly retreat. Ii you throw
up your hands wildly and run. you may
be sure you will lose the race, and the
bees will leave you in peculiar state ol
mind; not a calm and peaceful frame, but,
perhaps, one which will enable you to
heed these instructions better than such .
state of mind would.

ONIONS INSTEAD OF auININE.

One day | was taken with ehills and
headache, signs that my old enemy, mala-
ria, was on hand. My quinine box was
empty; and | was looking forward to a
restless, sleepless night. In desperation
peeled a raw onion and slowly ate it, and
then went to bed, with warm feet, and an
extra comforter. when, presto, | was
asleep in five minutes, and awoke in the
morning free from malaria and ready for
the days duties.
Our homeiy but strong friend will be
appreciated in time as medicine, and if
agriculturists would turn their attention
to raising model onion, with the strong
scent taken out that taints the breath so
unpleasantly, families will be putting
their pills in the cellar by the barrel,
and the doctors would take to onion farm
ing. The onion act as a cathartic and
diuretie, and may help TO break npa cold
or lessen the bad symptoms. Sand doc
tor: 81 always store barrel of onions in
my cellar during the Fall. We have them
cooked twice a week, and whoever Of the
family is threatened with a cold eats some
onions raw. If this vegetable were gener-
ally eaten, there would be no diphtheria,
rheumatism, gout, kidney or stomach
trouble
'-But bless you, the young men and
women are afraid to eat them. One young
man went so far as to say to me: if my
wife ate onions | would get bill OF di-
vorce.

AUTUMN.

With shy brown eyes she comes again,
With hair sunny, silken skeiD,
As full of light as golden rod;
Love in her voice, love in her nod,
She treads SO softly no one knows
The time she comes, the time she goes.
The grass is brown, the leaves begin
Their gold and crimson dyes to win,
Each cricket sings as loud as ten
To drown the noisy locust, when
You come, o maid, to bid us cry
To summer sweet long goodbye.
And when you go the leayes are gone:
The aster's farewell scent is flown:
Poor Cupid puts away his wings,
And close 10 cosey corners clings.
The rude winds usher, with shout.
The winter in, the autumn out.
There Is sadness in her shy brown eyes.
Though gay her gown with tawny dyes;
Loves in her voice--but telling most
OF one who's loved, but loved and lost,
She treads so softly no one knows
The time she comes, the time she goes.

In the economy of our social structure
women are almost entirely dependent upon
men, and men are. as rule, hoggish
enough to let the women understand it.
1t is useless to say to the ordinary individ-
ual, ''Your wife works quite as bard as
you; her holidays are few; the breaks in
the routine of her labor are very rare, and
the strain upon her mind and tug upon her
heart are not lightened or loosened, as
yours are, by brisk contact with the world
and frequent glimpses at the kaleidoscope
of affairs You go out. she sits in; you
spend. she saves All this sort of thing
is useless to the average man; his hide is
thick, his senses are blunt.

A Real NcceKsity.

We presume there is hardly a lady to
be found in our broad land who, if she
does not already possess a sewing ma.
chine, expects some day to become the
owner of one.
But after the mind has been fully
made up to purchase one of these indis-
pensable articles, the question ARISES
as to what kind of a machine to buy.
1t should be simply constructed that
the most inexperienced can successfully
operate it. The other points mainly
to be considered. and which are the
most desirable, are durability. rapidity,
capacity for work, ease of operation,
regularity of motion, uniformity of
tension, and silence while in operation.
The "Light-Running New Home"lills
the above requirements, and is said to
combine the good points of all sewing
machines, with the addition of many
new improvements and labor-saving
devices.
The price is no higher than that of
other machines, and every lady who is
the happy possessor of one may rest
assured she has indeed a treasure. See
advertisement.
