We are still a young nation and some
of the veneer we have taken Oh has not
yet got good nod. America is not Eu-
rope and ideas and practices that have
become second nature from Generations
of Observance in the old word are still
at times little awkward in the new.
At a certain summer resort a young
woman, tail, brown of face from her
outdoor life, carrying herself with a
splendid polse showing a firm wrist, de-

EVILS OF BOARDING.

A great mistake made by many house
keepers is that made by boarding all
kinds of Old things, with the idea that
soma day they may come in usefuliy.
Occasionally they are useful, but as a
rule they serve no other purpose than
tlat of collecting dirt and dust and
taking up space which might be used to
better advantage Many woman Will
devote whole day to tidying her lum-
ber room and spend an enormous amount
on time and energy in sorting out and
arranging all kinds OF rubbish watch
ought to have been consigned to the dust
Din .ong ago, and watch, in al probable
ity, will never be of use to anybody
Many housekeepers think 1t a mistake
to have a lumber room at all, and per-
haps they are right, for 1t is always easy
to say, "Just put this or that in the
lumber ROOM" and so all sorts Of things
are put there which in its absence would
be thrown away.
1t is all very well to be careful ana
but even these good qualities
can be carried to excess, and 1t Is mis-.
take to hoard Old tins, broken glasses,
cracked dishes, ETC., in the hope that
some day they may be wanted. Far bet
ter to throw them away or, II they are
worth It., give them to any poor person
to whom they may be of use, and 50
keep the house tidy and spare ourselves

LITTLE RUNNING BROOK.

Littis brook Little brook!
You have such happy look
Such a very merry manner, as you
swerve and curve and crook
And your ripples, one and one,
Reach each others hands and run
Like laughing lite children in the
sunl
Little brook, sing to me;
Sing about a bumb.e bee
That tumbled from a. lily bell and grum-
bled mumblingly,
Because he wet the fi.lm
OF his wing, and had to swim,
While the water-bugs raced round ana
laughed at him!
Little brook, sing a song
OF leaf that sailed
Down the golden-bralded center of your
current swift and strong,
And dragon fly that lit
On the fitting rim of 1t,
And rode away, and wasn't scared
a bit.
And sing-hcw oft in glee
Came a truant boy like me
VINO loved to lean and Isten to your
lifting melody
TIN the gurgie and refrain
or your music in his brain
Wrought a happiness as keen to him
as pain.
Little brook, laugh and leap
Do not let the dreamer weep;
Sing him all the songs of summer till he
sink in softest sleep;
And then sing soft and low
Through his dreams of hong ago
Sing back to him the rest he used to
know!

GOOD NEWS FOR ALL.

There is no longer any need of suf-
ferlng from constipation and its results
of headache, dizziness, palpitation, in
digestion and pimpled skin.
Dr. Edward +. Howard, who has car
ried on most extensive Investigations in
to this subject. says that his new specific
for the cure of constipation and dyspep-
sia will ensure easy, prompt and natural
action of the bowels and regulate di-
gestion.
The great demand at Sterns' drug
store for DR.. Towards specific is some
thing unusual, but they have received Il
large supply, and with more coming
from DIR. Howard's laboratory, expect
TO be able to fill all orders. This great
specific is the most important medical
discovery that has been made in many a
year, for it completely OverthrOws the
usual methods recommended for the
cure of cons tipation and dyspepsia, sub
shutting a tiny pill for the nauseous
liquids and cathartic pills that have
heretofore been used.
Physicians in the future will not rec
ommend drenchng the stomach with
mineral waters or straining the system
with large pills, but will tell their pa
tients to carry vial of DR.. Howard 5
specific in the vest pocket and take one
of the tiny granules after each meal and
on gong to bed. In this way there will
no longer be constipation. coated tongue,
headache, dizziness, "A foul taste in the
mouth, offensive breath, and pain after
eating.
For invalids and middle-aged persons,
to whom mild and reliable laxative is
naturally a frequent need, DR.. Howard 5

mencing with three or four of the tiny
pills of the specific day, it is nor long
before one will keep the bowels natural
and regular. 1t cures constipation, the

Statistics of crime in England and
Wales, lately published by the Home Of
flee, do not bear out certain assertions
one often hears. 1t is found, for instance,
that there is no apparent connection be-
tween the variations of drunkenness and
crime. One county noted for the drink
ing habits of its people is conspicuously
free of other crimes. 1t appears also
that in proportion to the population
there is more crime in the agricultural
districts than in the cities.
