HOW SHE LOVED HIM.

ria, ha" said Chappie Fizzlewig, and lie
laughed III ghOulish glee;
I'm making love to u dozen girls, but none
sigh to them and lie to them and fall upon
my knees
AS twist their trusting hearts about precisely
as please"
And the parlor clock
Beat on tick, took,
And the gaslight fiickered low
AS he waiting sat and held his hat for the girl
who loved him so.
And when she'd frizzled her oId-gold hair and
painted her faded face
She was q vision fresh and fair with comely
child-like grace.
"Poor, unsuspecting soulw though he, she
little creams tnat l
Fit on from bud to bud as does the careless
butterfly"
And the parlor clock
Beat on tick, took,
And the gaslight ttickered low
AS he somehow planned to hold the hand OF
the girl who loved him so.
And when the proper time arrived he fell
upon his knees,
And words he wished to emphasize he'd give
her hand squeeze;
There was no one near to hear his tale so he
told her of his love,
AS true and pure and constant as the stars
that shine above.
And the parlor clock
Beat on tick, took
ana the gaSllSht filckered low,
AS with subtle art he won the heart of the
girl who loved him so.
And the tender trustful maiden, she-she
laughed a gentle laugh,
For she knew each word was clearly caught
in her sofa phonograph.
And when he kneeled before her she q button
gently pressed,
And her Photographic camera in silence did
the rest.
And the parlor clock
Beat on tick, took,
And the gaslight fiickered low,
And she sweetly smiled, did the guileless
child-the girl who loved him So
The world went round and by and by he tired
of her love.
Twas then that she reminded him the stars
still shone above,
And into the court the phonoyraph and the
photographs were brought
And the gay young man threw up the sponge
for he saw that he was caught
And the parlor clock
Beat on tick, took,
And the gaslight f1ic<ered low
And the guests all came and he gave his name
TO the girl who loved him So

BRAvEsr BATTLE EVER FOUGHT.

The bravest battle that ever was fought,
Shall tell you where and when?
On the maps OF the world you will find it not
Twas fought by the mothers of men,
Nay, not with cannon, or battle shot
with sword, or nobler pen;
Nay, not with eloquent word or thous
From mouths OF wonderful men,
But deep in welled-up woman's heart.
n woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part:
Io there is that battlefield!
No marshaling troop, no biyouac song;
No banner to CLEAN and wave;
But oh these battles they last so long
From babyhood to the grave.
Yet faithful as bridge of stars,
She fights in her walled-up town.
Fights on and on, in the endless wars,
Then silent, unseen goes down.
y We with banners aud battle shot,
And soldiers to shout and praise,
l tell you the kingliest Victories fought
Are fought in these silent ways.
Oh, spotleSs woman in a world of shame!
With splendid and silent scorn
Go back TO God as white as you came,
The kingliest warrior born.

was English George, who had conceived
jealous hatred for the clergyman, occa-
stoned, no doubt, by the respectful atten-

George had long secretly cherished a
mad infatuatiou.

her no longer. The other women of the

Now, my fine swell, if L don't plug you

He levels his pistol just as Peggy turns
her head. Like flash she turns in front
of her companion.
In an instant later a shot rings out, fol-
lowed by a mighty oath, as the shooter
turns and disappears among the thickly-
growing bushes.
In despairing misery the clergyman
sinks by the motionless form of Peggy,
kissing her white face, pale lips and list
less hands.

darling"

Speaking of the distinction that some
Biblical critics are inclined to make be-
tween the words and ''mindr of Jesus.
the FdtchmGa (Bapt.) of Boston observes
that the fatal objection to this doctrine
is that it supplies us with as many differ
ent pictures of Jesus as there are critics
TO make them. For these critics do not
agree as to what there is in the Gospel
narrative that accords with His mind
as it is there revealed. One person will
strike out this class of sayings and an
other will strike out that. There is no COM
mon law or rule to go by, and the result
is that no consensus ofopinion is reached.
1t is the Jesus of A, B or that we are
asked to admire, reverence and initiate,
and not the Jesus of the -Four Biogra-
piers. And this objection, we repeat, is
a fatal one. We are deprived Of the Jesus
of history, and have substituted for Him
numerous other ideal persons bearing
His name, not one of whom perfectly
agrees with any one of His companions
and each of whom differs more or less
materially from the Jesus of the Evan
gelists. Consequently it is fair to de-
mand that, before we are asked to admit
the distinction which our critics insist so
much upon, they shall agree among
themselves as to what there is in the Cos
pels that, under the guidance of the
mind OF Jesus must be eliminated. that
the sorrowing, SHINING world may have
trustworthy account of Him for its COM
fort and inSpiratiOn.o

GEMMED WITH PEARLS

A mouth gemmed with
pearls flashes radiance
every time it opens.
The contrast between
the ruby of lovely lips
and the pearly teeth
they enclosed has wing
ell the fancy of many a
poet. SOZODONT, fair
ones, is the thing that
most contributes to
adorn the feminine
mouth. 1t is pure, it is
aromatic, it retains the
natural color of teeth
incrusted with yellow
tartar. No gritty or
other Objectionable in
gredient communicates
it, its odor is balmy and
its purifying operation
thorough.

are children when they have to take
medicine. Cod-liver oil would be taken
by everybody whenever he sees a little
loss of ~plumpness, but for it's nasty taste.
We all know that the doctors agree
there is not one in the world that does
not agree-that cod-liver oil is a fat
making food, the life-saving food for
those who need it. For some it is the
only means of life.
This universal agreement on cod-liver
oil is the growth of generations of medi-
cal thought. But the form in which
cod-liver oil has reached it's greatest
usefulness is SCOTS Emulsion; and this,
in sixteen years, has come to use the
livers of half the Norwegian catch of
Goldfish!
The taste has had something to do
with the success of this great improve
ment of cod-liver oil-it does not taste
bad-some like it, especially children.
Physicians know all about it; but
there are thousands of people to whom
the taste of cod-liver oil is a bug-bear yet!

What is wanted of soap for the skin is to

that. This is why we want pure soap; and,
when We say pure, we mean without alkali.
Pears is pure; no alkali in it; no free alkali.

Queer Electrical MiShap,

A queer accident befell a Portland
woman recently. An electric light wire
had sagged to the timed roof of her
house, and the current was conducted
by the water conductor on the out
side of the house to a trap in the Gel
lar, thence by the waste pipe to a
washstand on the second floor, thence
by the water pipe to the street, so
that when the lady put her hand on
The faucet of the water pipe she
couldn't let go. But luckily the wind
was blowing, and, as the wires sway
ed, the water pipe and its adiuncts
were electrified with but an :ntermit-
tent current, so the lady was liberated
after a few minutes imprisonment
and considerable suffering.-Lewiston
