Jones, Of the Herald, has kicked ever
since he has been in this county. He
reminds one very strongly of story
we once heard which runs something
like this. A number Of travelling men
knights of the grip'-were ap-
proaching certain city in which
former Knight who had quit the
road was running hotel. The "boys"
were all going to stop with him, but in
order to have little fun they arranged
to kick on everything about the hotel
of their former companion. Among
the group Of drummcrs was one who
had hitherto said nothing. This par
ticular gentleman had all the facial
characteristics of Jew. He was &C.
costed and asked it he would go in with
the others and kick on everything
around the hotel. His answer was,
"Oh, nefer you mind me, I always
kicks-I always kicks"

There is little doubt that many per.
sons suffer for years with ailments
that could easily be cured by the use
of some simple remedy. Tho following
incident is an illustration of this fact:
My wife was troubled with pain in
her side the greater part of the time
for three years, until cured by Chamber
lain's Pam Balm. 1t has, think, per-
manently cured her. We also have
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
whenever needed and believe 1t to be
the best in the world. p. NJ. Boston.

Tho Zeal Secret,

'sTell me not of your doubts and dis
couragements," said Goethe; II have
plenty of my own. But talk to me Of
your hope and faith" The tone Of com
plant is one which we are all too ready
to accept, and which is not only in
furious to ourselves but hurtful to all
who come in contact with us. In speak
ing of young woman who had filled
several good positions, but with no de
gree of success, an elder woman said
"She could have kept either position and
earned good income if she had moi
been SO dissatisfied. She was continu-
ally finding fault, and never felt that
ahe was appreciated"
1t may be safely said that this attitude
Of mind is one that almost predeterInines
failure in any line of work. Patience
under adverse circumstances will otter
bring about favorable results, while
complaint only accentuates and fixes the
cause of complaint. Avoid mention OF
the disagreeable things that may come
