wAsLisaWOMAN TO A POET.
MRS. hate Choate, In Honor of Whose
Housewarming Whittier Wrote Verses.

MRS. hate Choate, In Honor of Whose
Housewarming Whittier Wrote Verses.
Surely few housewarmings-and a
housewarming is one of the most mem
orable and significant of domestic cele-
brations-are likely to be remembered
with more satisfaction and pride than
that which attended the first occupancy
of the dwelling Of Mrs. Kate Choate of
Amosbury.
She was the poet Whittier's washer
woman, and when by persistent indus
try she had earned home for herself
and her family he was one Of the fore
most among the neighbors and friends
who organized the festivities and height
ened the delight Of their hostess by leav
ing substantial tokens of their regard,
including complete set of furniture
for the new parlor
Mr.. Whittier was present among the
guests and made the speech of congrat-
ulation, concluding it with the recita-
tion of a poem which he modestly de-
scribed as Il piece of machine poetry in
trusted to him for the occasion. 1t was
his own, of course, and it is given in
full in his Life and Letters, " recently
published The last three verses are as
follows:
Thanks, then, to Kate Choate!
Let the idle take note
What their fingers We're made for.
She, cheerful and jolly,
Worked on late and early
And bOught-what she paid for.
Never vainly repining
Nor begging nor whining.
The morning star wrinkles
On no heart that's lighter
AS she makes the world whittier
And smooths out its wrinkles
So long life to Kate
May her heirs have to wait
Till they re gray in attendance,
And the tiatiron press on,
Still teaching its lesson
OF brave independence
Mr.. Whittier's early poems accorded,
in "Songs of Labor, due poetic hon
ors to the professions of drover, shoe
maker, shipDuilder, farmer and fisher
man. 1t is pleasant to find him also
gracefully recognizing the worth of
profession no less useful and honorable,
but less often honored. Long life to
Kate, " too, he has doubtless secured,
in transferring her fiatiron and all
from the steamy realm Of the kitchen to
the more romantic atmosphere Of verse.

Twenty years ago young man mar

4 Big Fine.

A woman i'll Birmingham, England,
was recently fined the British equiya-
lent of $503, 600 for selling stale fish.
Her stock consisted of a half barrel of
sprats, which are very small fish like
whitehall, and by the law she had to be
fined so much per fish. The magistrate,
however, had the power to reduce the
fine, and he knocked off $500, $50.

The Rome Tribune on the situa-

coed price for manufactured goods

good price for grain and other pro-

cheap food and cheap goods and a

IT Is so.

lit is funny thing but it i3 true
remarked a gentleman to whom |
was talking the other day, "that
our people will patronize stranger
quicker than they will town man.
Some how or other it's another old
case of distance s-enchantment'
etc. They will buy goods quicker, and
ask fewer questions, of a dromqer
vho halls from Kalamazoo or Vir>
glnia or somewhere else than from
one whose first name they learned
when boys together and whose home
Is in this city. And you just let
some strapped son of IshmaeI strike
the town with some fake scheme of
advertising, or get up business
directory, or the Lord only knows
what not, and they jump at him
like a sucker after a fishing worm.
II home man asks them to patron
ize good thing, simply because it
hasn't the foreign influence times
are too tight to help the project"
THAT is sadly true" assented a
second gentleman who stood near
by. "But it's all wrong. The peo-
pie of the town should patronize
and encourage first of all the home
industries of all kinds, and every
time they think of sending a dollar
away from home it is a, duty they
owe to themselves and to- their COM
munity to look about and see if they
can get what they want at home.
Aside from the patriotism and pub
Tic spirit that IS displayed in dis
position to aid and assist home con-
Germs there is a question of self.in-
terest. 1t will always accrue to
your material good, directly or iudi>
rectly, to spend all the money you
spend right at home. Usually it
comes back to your pocket in a
month. At any rate it doesn't put
TIE money thousand miles away
where you never will get a whack
at 1t again. So | say stick to your
home folks and home industries, and
you get a hold of little money
keep it circulating as much as pos
sible right in the settlement. y

A Miracle in Texas.
INVESTIGATED BY THE TEXAS
CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE AND
VOUCHED FOR BY DIR. c.
H. STANSBURY.
H. STANSBURY.
(From the Texas Christian AdU0cdte.)

(Froa The TeraS Christian AdUocdte.)
Our representative has made careful in.
vestigation of the II. E. Spaulding case at
Longview, which is here published for the
first time, and which will be read with
great interest by medical men everywhere.
In reply to the Christian AdvOcatc's ques-
tons Mr.. Spaulding said. About eight years
ago while running locomotive contracted
sciatic rheumatism in my left side from my
hip down. 1t came on slow but sure and in
few months lost control entirely of that
member, it was Just the same as If it was
paralyzed, l was totally unable to move out
of my room for year and half, six
months of which time / was bed-ridden.
tried every remedy suggested, and had regu-
lar physicians in constant attendance on
me. | was bundled up and sent to Hot
Springs whereI spent three months under
the treatment of the most eminent special
lists, all of which did me no good, and
came back from the springs in a worse
condition than when I went. came home
and laid fat on my back and suffered
the most excruciating agonies, screaming in
pain every time anybody walked across the
room, the only ease | obtained being from
the constant use of opiates After three
months of this kind of agony, during
which time my entire left leg persisted away
TO the very bone, my attention was called to
a new remedy called DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, by Mr.. Allison who is
now train dispatcher at Texarkana, and
who was relieved of locomotor ataxia of
twenty years duration. At his urgent and
repeated solicitation l consented to give
them trial, after taking a few doses [
began to improve. | continued taking the
pills and kept right on improving until I
was finally cured. Ny leg is Just the same
size now as the other one, and / am sure
that Pink Pills not only cured me but saved
my life
. The reporter next visited DR.. C. II. STAINS
bury, graduate of one of the medical
schools of Kentucky, and man who enjoys
the confidence Of everybody in Longview.
He said: 81 know that Mr.. Spaulding had
q terribly severe attack of sciatic rheumatism
Of which l tiled TO cure him used every
thing known to my profession in vain, and
finally recommended him to go to Hot
Springs. He came back from the springs
worse than when he went and thought it
was only matter of time until his heart
would be affected and he would die / also
know that his cure ia the direct result of the
use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills"
That is rather an unusual statement for q
regular physician TO make, doctor"
81 know it is, but fact is fact, and
there are hundreds of people right here in
Longview who know what / say is the
truth. l also know Mr.. Allison and know
that he was relieved of 3 genuine and severe
case of locomotor ataxia of twenty years
standing"

The pastor who leaves a small
town or city to take pulpit in a
larger city where the salary is great
err, frequently makes the explana-
ton to his congregation that he feels
he ls-acting under the special call
of the Lord to work in a more ex-
tended vineyard. Such preachers
are probably sincere in what they
say. At the same time the an
nouncement of the Rev. Mr., Squires,
of jamestown, N. Y, that he was
going to Rochester, affords an ex
ample of thorough sincerity thai
may we'll be noted. He frankly
said special call had nothing to d.
with the matter, but bigger salary
had good deal to do with it. Chow,
ever" said he, "you will credit m,
with some candor in trusting that
may find the Lord even in Roches
ter and do some measure of hi
work there as well as here"

1t was clearly meant that all men
as we'll as all women should marry,
and those who, for whatever reason,
miss this obvious destiny are, from
natures point of view, failures. 1t
is not question of personal felicity
(Which in eight cases out OF ten may
be more than problemstic,) bu. of
race responsibility. The unmarried
man is skulker, who, in order to
secure his own ease, dooms some
woman, who has a rightful claim up
on him, to celibacy. And in so do
ing he defrauds himself of the OPP
portunities for mental and moral
developments which only the nor
NAL experience can provide. He
deliberately stunts the stature OF
his manhood, impoverishcs his heart
and brain. and chokes up all the
sweetest potentialities ofhis soul.

forcibly illustrated by an incident
related by Bishop Galloway. He
said there was only one great Bud
dbist temple now being erected in
Japan, and as he looked at the work
going on he noticed cable used for
lifting the heavy stones to their
places. the cable was as large as
his arm and as black as a ravens

this cable was woven of the hair

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.

There is nothing SO foolish al
work without fixed purpose.
Do not spend your time in sitting
about talking Of ways and means OIL
getting fame and money.
Remember that working out a
fixed purpose in life Is just as anus
ing as drinking champagne and fox
hunting. q
DO not imagine that talent counts
tor so much in the world. Persist.
ence without intellect is better than
intellect without persistence.
Don't be afraid because your
pockets are nearly empty. Only a
handful of the hundreds of millions
on the earth are forehanded more
than one meal
Do not fancy that your money
and your social position are aids to
doing things that are worth while.
In youth they are as dangerous as
too much Jelly cake.
Do not be enthusiastic about any
thing except what you are doing
yourself. This does not mean that
you are to be narrow and ungener
Gus. But enthusiasm is an explo>
sive. 1t should be saved for a seri-
GUS purpose.
Don't fancy that youth is the only
time in which there is any amuse>
ment to be got out of life. In real
ity it is the time when the most
evanescent pleasures only are to be
had, and that at scandalous prices.
