ping the curtain on the prettiest sort of
a play when one sunny August morning
we rolled our wheels out and pointed
them for Pittsfield. The trio of the old
house stood upon the quaint little porch
and watched us oil up and make ready.
Dave was just able to be about and help
himself. There were tears in the old
| mothers eyes when she held our hands
and said:
"Goodby, my sons, and God be with
you. You have helped him to save my
Dave, and he will bless you for it. I've
always heard that actors and newspa-
per men were very bad indeed, bat I'll
never believe it again. Goodby.' And
then Dave, on Clemmie's arm, hobbled
down to the old vine wound gate, and
there we left them standing in the shad-
ow OF the great elms and waving part
ing that we had promised should not be
for long.
Neither of us had much to say as we
glided along at the foot of the emerald
hills, and, for my part, tears would
have come easier than words.

Why Cap Is Symbolical of Liberty.

The right of covering the head was
in early times mark Of liberty, slaves
only going bareheaded. When slave
was given has freedom. 1t was custom
airy for his late master to place on his
head a small red cloth cap, called pl-
Ieus. When this had been done, he was
termed libertinus "a freedman), and his
name was registered in the city tribes.
In @G5 B. c., Saturnius, On taking pos
session Of the capital, hoisted a cap on
tine top Of his spear to indicate that ali
slaves who joined his standard should
be free. Marius used the same symbol
when he melted the slaves against Syl-
la. When Caesar was murdered, the
conspirators marched forth with a cap
on spear as token of liberty. The
Goddess Of Liberty in the Aventine
mount was represented as holding In
her hand cap. In France the Jacoblns
wore ID red cap. n England blue cap

Curing Cobra Elite With Stry chime

Some alleged instances Of cures OF
cobra bite are reported from India, but
there is always the doubt that in tile
recoveries' reported there was really
no poison injected for the cobra does
not inject poison every time it bites. 1t
is stated that some cases Of cobra bite
have been cured by the hypodermic in
lection OF stIychnine, and full details
will be awaited with interest, for it is
possible that strychnine may be antag
onistic to the peculiarly deadly poison
elected from the fangs of the cobra
The poison of that snake is, as rule, SO
rapidly effective that few occasions &C.
cur where a remedy can be applied with
sufficient promptitude to determine
whether it is effective or not. All
statements about alleged cures are,
however, worth careful Investigation,

Her simmer lightning Is Caused.

Summer lightning is the effect of
electrical action. "Heat lightning" is
the name by which it is more generally
known, as it is unaccompanied by thun-
der and free from danger. At the mo-
ment of sunset the vapors, which are
condensed by cooling near the ground,
form a conducting stratum, which serves
to re-establish by degrees the electrical
equilibrium between the atmosphere
and the earth, which are charged with
opposite electricities.

German Autographs of British Work.

An English lad; a pupil at the Cardiff
board school, sent a specimen of wood
carving to the annual exhibition of the
Recreative Evening Schools association,
in London. For the excellence of his
work he was awarded second prize, and
he subsequently reaped the further salts
faction of selling his exhibit to her royal
highness Princess Louise. He took his
certificate of merit to picture trainers

presented to an English boy by a Lon

How to Make Cream Of NIacaroons,

A delicious sweet to offer at lunch
con is made Of whipped cream and mac
aroons. Use the rich cream that is of
the proper consistency to whip well.
Sweeten and whip until quite stiff. Get
macaroons that have been kept about
two days and roll them until they are
finely crumbled, but not powdered. Stir
enough OF them with the whipped cream
to give it a delicate brown color. This
should be served heaped lightly in dain-
ty cups, as, while it makes most de-
lectable compound, it is altogether too
ylcll to be taken in any but the most
moderate quantities.

How Charley Sugar. Received It's Name.

Barley sugar appears to have been so
called because formerly, in making it,
the practice was to boil up the sugar
with detection of barley. Common
water is now more generally used. SAT
from is sometimes added to give it a
brighter amber color. Some say the
word is derived from the French term
hule (burnt) barley sugar, simply mean
ing burnt sugar. This does not appear
to be the correct explanation.

TRAGEDY.
All, ne! the loneliness

All me! the loneliness,
When our own sin has shut the doorssof home,
And we are left withaut-the deepening gray
OF twilight lying chill upon the old
Remembered paths, and the long night of death
Already creeping DER the eastern edge
OF deserted world. The fireside glow
Strikes through the easement, and the children
play
About the settle of the inglenook,
The grandsire nodding by the cheerful blaze,
But il there falls a shadow on the pane
1t is the ivy or the sianted rain,
And if a sob breaks in upon the laugh
1t is the wind among the apple boughs-
This is the righteous punishment of sin.

THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH.
Hard Work and Indigestion go
Hand in Hand.

Concentrated thought, continued in, robs
the stomach of necessary blood, and this is
also true of hard physical labor.
When five se-power engine is made
to do ten horsepower work something is
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man coming from Ill" field or the
office will "bolt" his food i'll few mill
utes which will take hours TO digest. Then
too, many foods are about as useful i'll the
stomach as a key of nails would be i'll
fire under boiler. The ill-used stomach
refuses to do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood and
nerves. The nerves are weak and ready
to break" because they do not get the
nourishment they require from the blood,
finally the ill-used brain is Inorbdly wide
awake when the overworked man at
tempts to find rest i'll bed.
The application of common sense i'll the
treatment of the stomach and the whole
system brings to the busy man the full ell
joyment of life and healthy digestion when
he takes DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
hearty meal, and DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify. enrich and
vitalize the blood The pellets are tiny
sugar coated pills made of highly concen-
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all offending matters easily
and thoroughly. They need only be taken
for a short time to cure the biliousncss,
constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of
the liver; then the Medical Discovery"
should be taken i'll tcaspoonful doses to in
crease the blood and enrich it. It has
peculiar effect upon the lining membranes
Of the stomach and bowels, toning ZIP and
strengthening them for all time. The
whole system feels the effect of the pure
blood coursing through the body and the
nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not
deadened, or put to sleep, as tile so-called
celery compounds and nerve mixtures do
but refreshed and fed OIL the food they
need for health. If you suffer from indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any
of the ills which come from impure blood
and disordered stomach, you can em'e
yourself with DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery which can be obtained at any
drug store in the country.
