What Is Dirt?

Old DR.. Cooper used to say to his stu
dents What is dirt? Don't be afraid of II
little Dirt young gentlemen. What is dirt!
Why, nothing at all offensive when chem
ically viewed. Rub a little alkali upon
that dirty grease spot on your coat, and it
undergoes chemical change and becomes
soap; now rub it with a little water, and
it disappears it is neither grease, soap,
water nor dirt
"That is not very odorous pile of dirt
you observe there. Well, scatter little
gypsum over it, and it is no longer dirty.
Everything you call dirt is worthy of your
notice as students of chemistry. Analyzc
it-analyze It'll 1t will all separate into
very clear elements. Dirt makes corn, corn
makes bread and meat, and that makes q
very sweet young lady that saw one of
you kissing last night. So, after all, you
were kissing dirt, particularly if sho
whitcned her skin with chalk or fuller's
earth.
"There is no telling, young gentlemen,
what is dirt, though may say that rub
bling such stuff upon the beautiful skin Of
a young lady is dirty practice. Pearl
powder is made of mountaineering but
dirt"

Cold
Weather

There are seven million pores
in the ordinary sized man, which
act as sewers in cleansing the
system of impurities. When
they become clogged, perspira-
ton ceases or is less than nor
NAL in quantity. Cold weather
restricts the amount of perspira-
ton, and in natures struggle to
free the system of waste matter
the Kidneys become overworked.
Buker's Kidney Pills counterfeit
the effects of overwork, prevent
disease, and cure the Backache
incidental to Kidney troubles.
When the back aches, try the
pills. Druggists sell them for
50 cents. A book about Back
ache and Kidney troubles for
the asking.

Tom Thumbs Wedding.

Do you remember Tom Thumbs wed.
ding?
1t took place in Grace church, not with
a sexton masquerading in robes, but with
bona ide Clergyman attended by his
staff, says Joe Howard in tho New York
Recorder. The church was packed There
was quite as much genuine interest in that
incident as there can be in any wedding
ceremony, and thousands sought admission
only to be repulsed. Men and women
pushed and crowded and jostled. Some
stood upon tho backs of the pews, and
when the tiny couples, General Thomas
Thumb, Miss Lavinia Warren, Commo-
dore Mutt and Miss Minnie Warren, made
their appearance, obs and abs echoed
throughout the sacred ediflce. The ladies
were gowned most sumptuously, rare laces
covered the sheeny satin, costly jewels or
namented their cars, their necks, their
garments and their hands. There were
titles galore, and all the money that was
needed to hire the most fashionable
church, to fee a high priced clergyman
and to secure the artistic efforts of the
most accomplished musicians of the time.
Prior to the event the newspapers printed
columns concerning the contracting par
ties. Unlike many others, these were real
ly notahles. They had been received, not
only by the crowned heads of Europe, by
the sovereign American people. Wherever
they went crowds attended them. Their
miniature coach, drawn by miniature
horses, guided by a miniature driver and
served by miniature foOtmen, was tho
theme of admiring comment. The mar
riage of Tom Thumb and IaYinia Warren
was great event in Gotham.

She knows she is under commission from her King to deliver her glad message, No further incentive Is necessary and notwithstanding the hustle and confu- sion she so speaks as to win welcome response. "Yes I am moving to where my husband has found work. These are my last things to put in the car and tonight I hope to meet my husband in our new home. but perhaps l can give you few moments" She has not been inside church for fourteen years. But the tender memories of childhood are awakened and the dead resolves of years gone by and resurrected," "Oh! if I could only be a Christian every day, I would begin now" she exclaims and the spirit speaks through the ssterly sympathetic voice of the visitor. Fear not thou, for I am with thee" Nor did the interview close until this weary and struggling one had knelt with the vis- itor and dedicated her life to her Re deemer determined to make her new home radiant with Christian service.
