NOT FAIR TO THE RECTOR.

She was just wee. bewitching, fairy
footed winter girl;
She was tired of balls and dances, and the
dizzy social whirl;
So. though she flirted on the sly each Lent
en- time before.
To each subtle, sweet temptation quoth
the maiden,
"Nevermore"
She looked so dear and charming in her
gown of holden gray.
She carried little prayer books in such a
winsome way.
The rector fell in love with her; he never
loved before;
And he said. do you refuse me?" Quoth
the maiden,
"Nevermorer'
The Lenten time was ended, and In rain
bow garments brgn'
Each maid emerged respondent, as dawn
from darkest night,
The rector met his fiancee, Paris gown
she wore;
He said When may I see you?" Quoth
the maiden,

AMERICAN WOMEN
Described by Mr.. Hall Game Comparisons
With English Women.

Win EnGi1sh women.
Mr.. Hall Game says of his stay in
the United States: Many OF my impress
sionS of America. by the way, toppled
down like childs house of cards when
| found myself actually in the country
and among the people. A delightful ma
ton to study is America-fresh and
frank and full of originality. OF course,
we all know, and have always known,
for the last century, at least, that Amer
leans are clever, but we can't realize I'M
til we go among them and see them in
their homes how kindly, how young Of
heart, they are as individuals"
OF American women in general he
deems lit is only natural they should
become what they are-superior, intel
lectually or, at any rate, specifically
so, to the men. That is, of course, as a
class. There are always so many excep-
tions to every rule. But the thing has
come about as consequence of mans
putting woman-American man, Amer
lean woman-on a pedestal and wor-
shipping her He has stayed below the
pedestal and worshiped her, not having
time. if he was the ordinary man of bus
mess to cultivate his mind and manner
while he so worked"
But she has had plenty of time, and
she had made the best use of it, In our
country l consider that the reverse is
the truth The average Englishman Is
superior TO the average Englishwoman
in intelligence and education. That is
because he is likely to think of himself
and his sons before he thinks of his wife
and daughters. And English women
have conscientiously upheld him in his
attitude toward them, until compGca-
lively lately, at any rate. In America,
on the contrary, | fancy that women
have known their own value and set it
rather high for a number of years a
couple of generations. at least"
In personal appearance Mr.. Game
finds our women ''prettier, more at
tractive, more bewitching than English
women. but rot SO regularly beauti-
full. The straight, almost Greek nose
and the ineffably lovely and naughty
upper lip of the most perfect, type of
English girl | have not seen equalled
in America, | must say"

James T, Higby, who keeps the drug store in the postofftce block had lately received new stock of goods for the winter season and had decorated the window in front of the store. Last evening he used a large search light to display them. In some unknown way the light was turned over, and bunting, with which the win dow was decorated caught fire. In a minute the most of one end was in a blaze. It was noticed by some outsid- CTS, who called the attention of Charles Oviatt, the clerk, who put the fire out before much damage was done.

The Importance of the Sweet

The pancreas of man Is gland exactly similar to the sweetbread of the calf. It plays most important part In the process of digestion. How important we shall at tempt to show.

 The stomach, which we commonly regard as the seat of dyspepsia, has but little or nothing to do with 1t and is but rarely the subject of this dreadful disease
 When, therefore, Claude Bernard found that little Ether, properly administered, would greatly increase the flow ofethe pan creatic secretion, he took q long step to- ward practical cure for dyspepsia, that bane of humanity and stumbling block to the medical profession.
 Our Etherol presents this remedy for the first time in practical form, and in order that 1t may reach those cases where the trouble is seated In the stomach, we have added to it harmless remedies that exert their peculiar action on this organ.
 The effects of Etherol are almost lnstan- taneQuS ana us II lS something cltllleiS novel in the line of dyspepsia cures, it has met hearty reception at the hand of the medical profesSion,
 By causing healthy assimilation 1t adds strength and fat to the body. This is the aim of every physician in the treatment of consumption; for, if the wastes of the body car be replaced by healthy tissue, the tide of the disease is at once stemmed
