What Will Do It?

Medical writers claim that the success
full remedy for nasal catarrh must be nom
irritating, easy of application and one
that will reach the remote sores and ulcer
ated surtsces. The history of the efforts
to treat catarrh is proof positive that only
one remedy has completely met these
conditions, and that is Ely's Cream Balm.
IL has mastered catarrh as nothing else
has ever done. Our druggists keep it.

WHY HE WAS NOT REMEMBERED

1 heard a great deal when I first
went on to the road" said an actor,
eabout the extraordinary ability of
some hotel clerks to remember names
and faces, and 1 can readily under
stand that such an accomplishment
would be very desirable in hotel
clerk. Nearly everybody, unless he
is travelling under an alias, is vain
enough to enjoy hearty recognition
by hotel clerk, particularly if the
hotel IS an especially good one. But I
had my doubts about the truth of tales
I had heard of these wonderful exhi
billions of memory, and when I came
to Cincinnati [ determined to make a
test. I did so, but am still undecid
ed about the matter.
In 1862, when I was about two years
old, my mother brought me from the
northern part Of the state Of Ken
lucky, where my father, an officer in
the Union army, was stationed. I
had been told we stopped over night
at certain hotel in Cincinnati. When
a company that I was in came here
I went to that hotel. An elderly clerk
was behind the desk. I tackled him.
"Howdy" said, trying to look as if
[ knew him well.
CHOW do you do, sir?" he said po-
litely, but without q sign of recogni-
ton in his eye.
"You don't remember me, do your"
"N-no," he said, little bit reluct-
antly, as if he didn't like to admit it.
"Why," I said, II stopped here in
1922
"Spring or fall?" said he, apparent
ly recovering himself.
"Spring, Think" said I.
"Oh," he answered, and he looked
me right in the eye, ''that accounts
for me, but recalling you, sir. I didn't
come here until the fall of 1852"

The merchant had arrived at his Of
flee as early as seven o'clock, and five
minutes after he got down to his desk,
a foxy-looking, bright faced boy came
in. The merchant was reading, and
the boy with his hat off, stood there
expectantly, but saying nothing. At
the end Of two minutes he coughed
slightly, and spoke.
excuse me, sir" he said, "but Pm
in hurry"
The merchant looked up.
"What do you want?'' he asked.
81 want job, if you've got one for
me-"
''Oh, do your" snorted the merchant.
"Well, what are you in such a hurry
about?'
''I've got to be, that's why" was
the sharp response. "I left school yes
terday evening to go to work, and
haven't got place yet, and I can't
afford to be wasting time. If you
can't do anything for me, say so, and
I'll skip. The only place where can
stop long in is the place where they
pay me for it,"
The merchant looked at the clock.
"When can you Gomez" he asked
81 don't have to come," replied the
youngster; "I'm here now, and I'd
been at work before this, if you'd
only said So"
Half an hour later he was at it, and
he's likely to have job as long as he
wants it.

A Prejudice.

1 was climbing up mountain path,
With many things to do
Important business of my own,
And other peoples, too
When l ran across a Prejudice
That quite cut off the view.
NV work was such as could not wait,
Ny path quite clearly showed;
My strength and time were limited
1 carried quite load;
And there that hulking Prejudice
Sat all across the road.
So 1 spoke to him politely,
For he was huge and high,
And begged that he would move bit
And let me travel by.
He smiled-but as for moving,
He didn't even try.
And then reasoned quietly
With that colossal mule;
My time was short-no other path
The mountain winds were cool:
1 argued like a Solomon
He sat there like fool.
Then l flew into PRESTON,
danced and howled and swore;
I pelted and belabored him
Till was stiff and sore;
He got as mad as did,
But he sat there, as before.
And then 1 begged him on my knees
L might'be kneeling still,
If.so 1 hoped to move that mass
OF obdurate ill-will-
AS well invite the monument
To vacate Bunker Hill!
So I sat before him helpless,
In an ecstasy of woe;
The mountain mists were rising fast,
The sun.was sinking slow,
When a sudden inspiration came,
AS sudden winds do blow.
I.took my hat, 1 took my stick,
My load 1 settled fair;
I approached that awful incubus
With an absent minded air,
And 1 eOatked directly through him,
AS if he wasn't there!

ABUSE OF THE STOMACH.

Different constitutions have pc
culiarities in regard to the way in
which they assimilate food, and the old
adage that what is one mans meat is
another's poison is very true one.
There is no ailment more common
in middle life and in old age than in
digestion. This, Of course, depends
upon improper food taken too fire.
quently and in undue quality. AS a
rule the victim of indigestion flies to
medicines for relief, or to one of the
thousand and one quack remedies
that are advertised to cure everything.
How much more rational would 1T
not be to alter the diet, and to give
the stomach the food for which it is
craving! If the stomach could talk,
I can imagine it, after pills, and gin
and bitter, and quack remedies OF
every description have been poured
into it, begging to be relieved of such
horrors, and saying, Give me a little
rest, and cup of beef tea and a bis
cult and go take II little fresh air and
exercise yourself Instead of this the
miserable organ has to be dosed with
all sorts of horrible connections in the
way Of drugs, brandies and sodas,
and champagne, to endeavor to slim
ulate it into action. There is no doubt
that the stomach that requires slim
ulants and potions to enable it to act
efficiently, can hardly be said to be in
a healthy state, or can long continue
to do it's work properly.
The digestive organs, unfortunate
ly are the first to sympathize with any
mental worry. They are like a barom-
eter, and indicate the errors of NAL
nutrition and their consequences.
The healthy action Of every organ
depends upon the proper assimilation
of the food taken. AS soon as all di
gestive process fails, everything fails
and ill health results with all its dis
astrous concomitant.

A Pleasant Surprise.

''Tell me how you came to know

glasses upon it shake as if an earth

''It was in the rain, sir,'' he said.
''Eh ?" echoed John.
II had an umbrella she had none,'
he said. 1--WE came up on the same
train. held the umbrella over her;
she would have been soaked if [ had

"That proves she is not a lady,"
said Uncle John.

point" said Tom, "though she does
work for her iving-and we are en-
gagged, and I know you'll like her
when you meet her, sir.'
'You are engaged to working girl
