SUCH AS 1T is.
Will Ripen Later.

With her college course completed,
She was just a bit conceited,
Believed she owned the universe and
ell it could contain;
Her airs were something frightful,
Her chic was quite delightful,
And whether song or prattle came
twas done with might and main
And yet her cheeks were rosy,
AS the prettiest dew-picked posy,
Her lips were Cupids bow in shape
her hair like golden mist;
Her form had curves artistic
Her charms were realistic,
Her words sweet music, though SIX
knew not when they should de-
sist.
OF course they CritciSe her,
Affecting to deSpise her,
Call her a giddy hussy and a modern
maiden spoiled,
But / notice there are blisses,
In this little rebels kisses,
And nooses made by Cupid in her
golden tresSes coiled.
l think she'll riper later
To confOund each present hater,
And the seers predicting failure win
be badly fooled and foiled.

HOT WEATHER PHILOSOPHY.

Don't fret about the mercury,
Or watch it all the time,
The old thermometer won't burst,
However it may climb.
1t doesn't do you any good
To count up the degrees,
And all you talk about the heat
Won't start a bit of breeze.
Dent fan yourself too much. 1t makes
You hotter when you stop.
Don't tell the suffering neighbors that
You feel as if you'd drop.
Don't drink too much cold Lemonade;
a glass or two will do.
And don't ask everybody
'Is it hot enough for you"
Just go about your daily tasks
AS calmly as you can.
Don't hurry; take things easy, and
You'll be much happier than
The chap who groans, and frets, and
stews.
And fuses all the time.
Just follow this advice and you'll
Be glad you read this rhyme.

Every hard working person should

No eight-hour or ten-hour laws have
ever been devised to protect such hard
worked, overworked men against them
selves.
Very many are tied to their Office desks,
bent over books and papers for hours, in
utter defiance of the simplest require
ments of health. The steady drain on
the store of nervous energy at length
shows itself in repeated headaches,
neuralgia twinges, rheumatic pains, un-
refreshing sleep and a lowness of spirits
and strength.
In all these cases there is urgent need
OF restoring the nervous vigor that has
been heedlessly squandered. Just why
the great body of really capable physicians
have had the greatest confidence from
the first in ordering Paine's celery com

that follow, but because this great
