The ups and downs that glory knows

Napoleon was hero once,
And now he is fad.
The Wish liratihod.

You have often wished for something
to take the place of pills. Now try a
25-cent package of Simmons Liver Regu-
lator powder. Take it dry, on the tongue,
or make it into tea. 1t is pleasant to
take, and gives quick relief-two good
recommendations.

Securely Entrcmched

Against disease are those who are pru-
Dental enough to renew failing energy by
the aid of the grand terrifying agent,
Hostetter Stomach Bitters, which pro-
notes vigorous discharge of the duties
imposed upon the various organs by
nature, and which if impeded or relaxed
speedily bring about their disorder. Di-
gestion, assimilation, due secretion and
direction of the bile and regular habit
of BODY are insured by the systematic use
of this safe, prompt and thorough medi-
cine. Chills and fever, bilious remittent,
dumb ague and ague cake, kidney COM

other inorganic maladies are removed by
it. 1t prom otes relish for the food as
we'll as the ability to digest and assimilate
it. The infrmities of declining years are
mitigated by it. A wineglassful before
retiring promotes health yielding repose.

Upon my hand for years,
And, Notwithstanding this, sing
And weep no bitter tears.

But thus far I've escaped the han

Straight over my left shoulder,
Nor have been bit distressed
About it's growing older.

With thirteen for number,

Or marred my peaceful slumber.

The Tribute of Silence.

A poet read his verses, and of two
Who listened one spake naught but open
praise.
The other held his peace, but all his face
Was frightened by the inner JOY he knew.
Two friends long absent met, anu one had
borne
The awful stroke and seattle Of binding loss.
Hand fell in hand; so knit they, like cross.
With no word uttered heart to heart was
sworn.
A mother looked into her baby's eyes,
AS blue as heaven and deep as neither sea.
By what dim prescience, spirit wise, knew
she
Such souls exchanges nevermore would riser
Oh, deep is silence, deep as human souls!
Aye, deep as life, beyond all lead and line!
And words are but the broken shells that
shine
Along the shore by which the ocean rolls.

You Never Can Tell.

You never can tell when you send word
Like all arrow shot from bow
By an archer blind, be it cruel or kind,
Just where it will chance to go.
II may pierce the breast Of your dearest friend,
Tipped with its poison or balm;
To strangers heart in life's great mart
1t may carry its pain or its calm.
You never can tell when you do an act
Just what the result will be,
But with every deed you are sowing seed,
Though its harvest you may not see.
Each kindly act Is an acorn dropped
In Gods productive soil.
Though you may not know, yet the tree shall
grow
And shelter the brows that toll.
You never can tell what your thoughts will do
In bringing you hate or love,
For thoughts are things, and their airy wings
Are swifter than carrier dove.
They follow tine law of the universe
Each thing must create its kind
And they speed DER the track to bring you
back
Whatever went out from your mind.

She Must Be Homemaker Still.
Where the mountains slope to the westward
And their purple chalices hold
The new made wine of the sunset,
Crimson and amber and gold,
In this old, wide opened doorway
With elm boughs overhead,
The house all garnished behind her
And the plentiful table spread,
She has stood to welcome our coming,
Watching our upward climb.
In tho sweet June weather that brought US,
Oh, many and many time.
Again is her doorway opened,
And the house is garnished and sweet,
But she silently waits for our coming.
And we enter with silent feet.
A little within she is waiting,
Not where she has met us before.
For over the pleasant threshold
She is only to cross once more.
The smile on her face is quiet,
And lily is on her breast;
Her hands are folded together,
And the word on her lips is crest"
And yet it looks like welcome.
For her work is comprised and done.
All things are seemly and ready,
And her summer is Just begun.
1t is we who may not cross over
Only with song and prayer,
A little way into the glory
We may reach as we leave her there.
But we cannot think of her idle;
She must be a homemaker still.
God giveth that work to the angels
Who fittest the task fulfill.
And somewhere yet in the hilltops
Of the country that hath no pain
She will watch in her beautiful doorway
To bid US a welcome again.

Three girls sat idly on the beach,
One like lily tall and fair,
One brilliant with her raven hair,
One sweet and shy Of speech.

"And for wealth apd courtly life,"
Then gently spoke the third, Gas wife
ask for love instead"
Years passed. Again beside the sea
Three women sat with whitening hair,
Still graceful, lovable and fair,
And told their destiny.
"Fame is not ALL" the lily sighed;
"Wealth futile If the heart be dead"
~ have been loved" one sweetly said,
"And am satisfied"

GIVE HIM A LIFT.

Give him lift Don't kneel in prayer,
Nor morallze with his despair,
The man is down and his great need
Is ready help, not prayer and creed.
'Tis time, when wounds are washed and
healed
That the inward motive be revealed
But now, whate'er the spirit be,
Mere words are but a mockery.
One grain of aid just now is more
To him than tones of sanity lore,
Pray, If you must, within your heart,
But give him lift, give him a start.
The world Is fnll of good advice,
OF prayer and praise, and preaching
nice
But the generous souls who aid man
kind
Are scarce as gold and hard to find.
Giye like Christian-speak in deeds,
A noble life's the best of creeds;
And he shall wear royal crown
Who gives them lift when they are
down.

not told the strict truth regarding the
affair She had taken him on her

people who told lies could not go to

"Well, my son, don't know, but
possibly at some time in my life may
have told some things that were not
quite as they should have been."

questioned the boy.

mother.

His mother concluded 1t was now
about time to choke her son Off before
he had involved all the relations on
both sides of the family, so she said:
"My boy, am afraid there Is hardly
any person In the world but who has at
some period of his life made some
statements that would not be called the

The boy pondered over this for few
