"This is comforting doctrine" the

A RESOLUTION that is communicated
is no longer within thy power; thy in

chance; he who would have his com

SELF-TRUsT is the first secret of sue
cess-the belief that, if you arc here.
the authorities of the universe havesput
you here. and for a cause, or with some
task strictly appointed you in your con
stitution; and so long as you work at
that you are well and successful. It by
no means consists in rushing premature
ly to a snowy feat that shall catch the
eye and satisfy spectators. 1t is enough
if you work in the right direction.

PLAYED BILLIARDS WITHOUT BALLS.
Chicago Times.
According to an eyewitness peculi-
ar incident happened one evening re-
Gently in the billiard room of hotel at
Tacoma, Wash. The room was crowded
and all of the billiard and pool tables
were occupied but one. Two gentlemen
enterd the room attired in full evening
dress. Engaging a billiard table, the
boy brought the balls, but the players, to
his utter establishment, told him they
did not need them. Removing their
topcoat, coats and hats, they took cues
4 I'M
made the customary moves around the
table, studied apparent plays, made the
customary grimaces at misplays, and
regularly counted their strings. A won
dering crowd gathered about them
They thought the men were crazy. A
funny part of it was that they never
smiled, took the "guying" of the crowd
serenely, and when the points were
marked up, paid for the game and
unconcernedly walked ont. The solu
tion of the mystery was that the imita-
tion game was played on wager.

In private life the endeavor to be a
superior person" is all very well if
kept within bounds. "Cutting dash,"
astonishing the Browns" or "liv-
ing for appearances" are all vulgar
phrases, but they explain one very vul
gar wish-that is, of getting on unfair
ly beyond others, and of appearing what
we really are not. These attempts, be-
gun in bad taste, and fostered by pride,
generally end in lamentable failures.

MODERATION is the father of health,
cheerfulness, and old age. Excess has
so large a family that we cannot remem-
Der the names of One-half of them
However, disease, debt, dishonor, de-
struction, and death, are among them
not the most hopeful household in the
world.

HAPPINESS between husband and wife
can only be secured by that constant
tenderness and care of the parties for
each other which are based upon warm
and demonstrative love. The heart de-
mands that the man shall not sit reti-
cent, self absorbed and silent in the
midst of his family. The woman who
forgets to provide for her husbands
tastes and wishes renders her home un-
desirable to him. In word, ever-pres-
ent and ever-demonstrative gentleness
must reign, o else the heart starves.

THE mind of man is formed to desire
and to relish variety. The objects with
which he is conversant are varied with
out end, to crafty that desire, and to
correspond with that relish. The glare
of perpetual sunshine and the fervid
heat of a continual summer would speed
lily oppress or destroy mankind; but, re-
lieved by the tranquility of darkness, the
freshness of spring, the sedateness of
autumn, and even the gloom of winter,
they become no less grateful than they
are beneficial.

ALUM AND AMMONIA IN OUR BREAD.
Shall we drive Slow Poison from our
Breakfast Table.

A nuisance that troubled England
fifty years ago is now rapidly spread
ing in this country, that is, putting al
um in the bread we eat. This question
is causing great deal of discussion at
the present moment. as it is revealed
that alum is being used as a substitute
for cream of tartar in baking powders.
A story is told that very large percent
age of the baking powders sold on the
market contain either alum or ammonia
and many of them contain both these
perniciOus drugs. Much timely alarm
is felt at the wholesale use of alum in
bread, biscuit and pastry. TO young
children, growing girls, persons of
weakly frame, alum bread eating morn
ing, noon and evening is the most harm
full. Alum is cheap, costing but two or
three cents pound. while cream of tar
tar costs 30c., and the high price of
cream of tartar has led cheap baking
powder to be made of alum. If the
reader wants to know something of the
corrosive qualities of alum let him touch
a piece to his tongue then reflect how it
acts on the tender, delicate coats of the
stomach.
The Scientific American published in
a recent number list of alum and am
monia baking powders. which is of
great value at this time. Following is
a condensed list compiled from official
reports. Powders marked with star
seem to have a general sale, as they are
mentioned in at least two of the official
reports:
*ATLANTIC PACIFIC. 'ROYAL.
CROWN. SILVER STAR.
*DAvIs OK. +sNOw DRIFT.
GEM. STAR,
*KENTON. STANDARD.
There are in addition to the foregoing
list from the Scientific American, a num-
Der of such powders sold in the western
that were not found in the eastern stores.

Obituary..

Mrs. Elizabeth Miller died at the
home of her son-in-law, Mr.. q. ii. Z.
Roberts, in Leroy township, October
23rd, at 2 o'clock p. m. She was born
February "A, 1872, in Allegheny county,
Pa, and was married on April 2, 1884,
IN Lawrence county, Pa, to Robt. Mil
Ter. Mrs. Miller first united with the
United Presbyterian church in 1910,
and on the 4th of October 1890, she
united with the Presbyterian church of
Audubon, of which church she was "a
member until her death. After the
marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Miller they
settled in Allegheny county, Pa, resid-
until 1866 they resided in Mercer coun-
ty, Ills, and then removed to Iowa set
Ting in Audubon county. There were
and there are eighteen grand children
and four great grand children. The
funeral was attended by Rev. E. Dick
inson at the home of Mr.. Roberts at 2
o'clock p. m. of the oath. A very large
number of friends and neighbors were
in attendance. Mrs. Miller was wO-
man of strong character, a devoted wife
and mother and true christian and
consistent member of the church. She
loved the house of God though Of late
years through age and infrmities she
has been to great extent debarred
from attendance upon the services.
She seemed to have premonitiOn of the
fact that her end was near. Wearied
with her long pilgrimage she lay down
to rest and the slumber deepened to
the dreamless sleep we call death. But
leath is only the transition of the death
less spirit to that brighter land where
he flowers never fade and the powers
never fail, the endless home where is
found the function of the christians
hope. +. d.

Democratic Compliments.

Il. J. MahOney, of Omaha, who is
speaking for the democrats in this
county, is evidently an Irishman. Mr..
Mahoney is working for free trade, in
he interests of England, whose free
trade policy was forced upon Ireland
until her wheels were stopped, her fires
put out; and her people left to exclu-
iive agriculture. That the democratic
party has no respect for the Irish peo-
pie is conclusively shown by the words
If Robert b. Roosevelt, treasurer of the
democratic national committee and
Who was minister to Holland under
Cleveland. Mr. Roosevelt said: "The
irish are magnificent race, especially
If they did not lie, steal, cheat, rob,
murder, get drunk, perjure themselves,
quarrel and fight, they would be almost
Us good as other nations"
