WHY Is FRIDAY FISH DAY.

The Friday fasting of the early Chris
tian Church was simply modification of
the Jewish weekly fasts, the custom of
observing which grew up, probably, in the
post-exile period of Jewish history" says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat "These
Moses ascent to Sinai and his descent
therefrom, were not obligatory on the
Jews. but were observed pretty generally
The early Christians did not cease to be
Jews because they followed Christ, so they
maintained their old customs and fastings.
So, too, the Catholic Church obtained the
fast day, and in keeping with its custom
of retaining the heather, or non Christian,
ceremonies under Christian conditions,
the church soon proposed the Friday fast
in memory of Christ death The date we
do not know The custom of a. Friday
fast was maintained by the early Chris
tians without any especial idea on their
part, so that it is probably impossible to
say when it ceased to be relic of Juda
ism and became mark or duty of Christi
anity.
The fasts, if celebrated at all by Jesus,
came not on Friday, but on Thursday and
on Mondays as well. These were origi-
nally market days in Jerusalem, when the
people came in large numbers and then
attended divine services at synagogue to
hear portion read from the Books of
Moses. Subsequently, after the disper-
sion, some Jews then, as now, observed
the days, at times, as halffast day. But
Friday was always avoided as fast day,
lest it interfere with the joys of the Sab
bath, and movable minor fasts are not al
lowed to fall on that day The explana
ton of the Friday fast must be sought
elsewhere. Perhaps it is in commemmo-
ration of the Crucifixion, just as Sunday
is the Lords Day in honor of the Resur
ection.

PUPPY LOVE.

l was nineteen, and pretty Lois Tanner
was three years my junior. Sweet sixteen!
Is there in all this world anything sweeter?
There may be other sweet sixteens, but
the comparative degree of the adjective in
this connection has grown rusty from long
disuse, and sweet sixteen remains positive
in kind and superlative in degree
And Lois Tanner was sixteen.
From the first day of our meetng-we
were the children of wealthy parents and
were summering by the sea-some intan-
gible influence, some inexplcable force
seemed to draw us to each other and to
run the lines of our lives parallel. For
two years we had known each other, and
one day-it was the third summer after
our meetlng-we sat on the rocks by the
shore, and as the waves beat in rhythmic
measures upon the silver sand stretching
out at our feet looked into her sweet blue
eyes and knew that Lachesis as she drew
two threads from Clotho's spindle, was
twisting them into one cord, forever indi-
visible
In early youth how far the eyes, undim
med by years, can see into the future, and
how keen is young love to decipher the
handwriting on the wall!
Lois | said as we sat there in the fad
ing twilight, ''do you know how long we
have known each other"
Does it seem long, Mr. Belden?" she
replied, with a coy little smile.
1T has been two entire years, Miss Tan
ner,' said |, falling into her mock formal
ity of manner.
"And one learns a great deal in two
years, she added.
I'm one direction | have learned moth
ing, Lois" | said, with u quietness | did
not feel.
why, Jack she exclaimed, Il don't
see how you car stand still
But | have" insisted
'Now.' and her eyes looked for guile
ness.
In loving you Lois" broke forth, Il
couldn't love you any more in a thousand
years than | loyed YOU after our first
meeting"
"Oh, Jack" she cried nervously, what
made YOU say that
Why shouldn't | say it, | answered,
with Il dogged resolve not to be put down
bv any woman whim.
Because. Jack" she said very earnest
", papa has been saying all along that
YOU and | were together too much, and
the first thing the family knew there would
be Il case of puppy love to cure
Did your father say that" | asked with
the anger showing in my face
He did, Jack and he saws
well, | don't want to hear what he saws,
or has said, or will say interrupted If
he says anything like that, he doesn't know
what he is talking about and hasn't the
most remote idea of what a man truly in
love with the one woman in all the world
for him feels"
He ought to know something about it,
Lois said hesitatingly. "lou know, Jack,
he has been married three times"
That's just it," | growled. Hes
grown callouS He thinks because | am
not 100 wears old | don't know my own
heart and am irresponsible into the bar
gain If it weren't for you, Lois,' | add
ed, ameliorating my wrath to slight eX-
tent, II wouldn't have a man like he is for
my father-in- law under any circumstances
Papa isn't so awfully bad, Jack" she

There are husbands who are pretty,
There are husbands who witty,
There are husbands who in public smiling

There are husbands who are healthy,
There are famous ones ana wealthy,

Who are really so devoted
That whene'er their wives absent they lone

And while now and then you'll find one
Who's really good and kind one;
But the real angelic hush ,nd--oh, he's never yet

So the woman who is mated
To man who may be rated
As pretty fair should cherish him f,rever and

Perfect quite in every feature

A GOOD APPETITE.

Always accompanies good health, and an
absence of appetite is an indication of
something wrong. The loss of rational
desire for food is soon followed by lack of
strength, for when the supply of fuel is
cut off the fire burns low! The system
gets into low state, and is liable to Sc
we're attacks of disease. The universal
testimony given by those who have used
Hoods Sarsaparilla, as to its great merits
in restoring and sharpening the appetite,
in promoting healthy action of the di-
gestive organs, and as a pulitzer of the
blood, constitutes the strongest recon-
mendarion that can be urged for any med
icine Those who have never used Hoods
Sarsaparilla should surely do soIthis sea-
son.
The whole population of the United
States could be concentrated in Texas
without bringing up the density of her
population to that of Massachusetts. In
fact, if an area equal to that of Indiana were
cut off from Texas, the state would still
hold the entire population of the United
States without crowding us as the people
of Massachusetts, are crowded. Delaware
would have more than room for us all,
could the whole population be crowded as
are Inhabitants of New York city.

know of a land where the streets are paved
With the things which we meant to achieve
1t is walled with the money we meant to have

And the pleasure for which we grieve,
The kind words unspoken, the promises broken
And many a coveted boon,
Are slowed away there in that land somewhere
The land of Pretty Soon,''
There are uncut jewels of possible fame
Lying about in the dust
And many a noble and lofty aim
Covered with mould and rust
Ant, oh! this place while it seems near,
Is farther away than the moon,
Though our purpose is fair yet we never get there
To the land Of Pretty Soon"
The road that leads to that mystic land
Is strewn with pltiful wrecks,

Bear skeletons on their decks

And farther at night than noon;
