hat One Should Not Do,

1t is generally agreed that all riders
of the bicycle should know as much as
possible about their wheels. When
some distance ont in the country and
something breaks upon the machine or
gets out of order the rider possess ID of
no mechanical ability and without any
knowledge of the arrangement Of the
parts OF d bicycle is at the mercy of the
inanlmate steed, with the pr1spec5 OF
long walk staring him n tn face.
On the other hand, it Is quite as es-
sential that rider should not know
too much about his wheA and endeav-
or to improve on the orig nal des ga.
This is fault not quite as common
as that of ignorance. but sufficlen y
damaging to make plenty of trOub e
for the riders. The manufacturer who
designed and made the wheel must be
given credit for certain amount of in
telligence. He had purpose in mind

Murder Near Roswell.

A Mexican, who has been herding
sheep for Jim Turknett, was found
dead shor5 distance west of Miller
the other morning. He had about $50
on his person when he left Miller, and
the purpose of robbery is thought to
have prompted the deed. A Large stone
lying close to the body seems to have
been the thing with which his skull
was crushed. The body had been set
on fire in an attempt to cover the
crime. No clues.-Roswell Register.

Why do we wait till ears are deaf
Before we speak our kindly word,
And only utter loving praise
When not whisper can be heard?
WHY do we wait till hands are laid
Close-folded, pulseless, ere we place
Within them roses sweet and rare,
And lilies in their tlawless grace?
Why do we wait till eyes are sealed
TO light and love i'll deaths deep
trance
Dear wistful eyes-before we bend
Above them with imprisoned glance?
why do we wait till hearts aIe still
TO tell them all the love in ours,
And give them such late need of praise,
And lay above them fragrant flowers?
How oft we, careless, wait till life's
sweet opportunities are past,
And break our "alabaster box
OF ointment at the very last!
O, let us heed the living friend
Who walks with us life's common
ways,
Watching our eyes for look of love,
And hungerng for word of praise.
The Sabbath Defender.

SOMEBODY ELSE.

Who's Somebody Else? I should like
to know,
Does he live at the North or South?
Oris it lady fair to see
Whose name is in every ones mouth?
For Meg says, SOMEBODY Else will
sing
or, "Sombody Else can play"
And Jack says, "Please let Somebody
Do some of the errands to-day"
If there's any hard or unpleasant task
Or difficult thing to do
IT'S always offered to Somebody Else
Now isn't this very true?
But if some fruit or pleasant trip
: offered to Dick or Jess,
We hear not word about Somebody
Else.
Why? will leave you to guess.
The words of cheer for stranger lad,
This Somebody Else will speak,
And the poor and helpless who need a
friend
Good Somebody Else must seek.
The cup of cold water in jesus name
Oh, Somebody Else will offer,
And words of love for a broken heart
Brave Somebody Else will prefer.
There are battles in life we only can
flight,
And victories, too, to win,
And Somebody Else cannot take our
place,
When we shall have "entered in"
But if Somebody Else has done His
work
While we for our ease have striven,
Twill be only fair if the blessed re-
ward
To Somebody Else is given.

Not Good for Baby.

Mere Sparks.

To treat your friend with kind
ness while he lives is vastly better
than to make great ado over him
when he is dead.
Some people really seem to think
that it is possible for them by the
use of adrOit contrivances to de-
ceive God.
To withhold appreciation from one
to whom it is due is to be guilty of a
very serious form of dishonesty.
A little of the courtesy that you
waste on the world might very well
be spent in your own home.
A little thinking would add new
charm to the flood of talk in which
most people indulge.
All the coarseness of man or wo-
mans soul often comes out in a
single unretlecting word.
A great many of the most censur-
able actions of our lives are the re-
suit of cOwardice.
Voluntary ignorance is a sin
against God and ones own soul.

A LITTLE CHILD.

There's nothing more pure in heaven,
And nothing on earth more mild,
More full of the light that is all divine,
Than the smile of little child.
The sinless lips have parted
With breath as sweet as the air,
And the light that seems so glad to
shine
In the gold of the sunny hair.
O little one, smile and bless me!
For somehow know not why
/ feel in my soul, when children smile,
That angels are passing by.
| feel that the gates of heaven
Are nearer than / knew;
That the light and the hope of that
sweeter world,
Like the dawn, are breaking through.

If there is one thing more than
another that will help to make the
individual life happier and more
successful, it is to settle down to the
determination to take what comes
cheerily and as matter OF course;
to resolve to bear the necessary ills
and vicissitudes of life patiently
philosophically. We may us we'll
make up our minds to expect GER
tain things, and if we do so at once
we will save ourselves much trouble
and reputation. We may be sure
that this week, this month, this
wear, this life, will not be day
dream. Things will occur and re-
occur that are not just to our notion
or liking.
Most of cur dreams will never be
realized. We will encounter much
that we never dreamed of and that
is several degrees from welcome or
agreeable. So much is safe to pre-
dict. Philosophy and common
sense unite in urging Us to be pre-
pared for what is probable, and not
to allow our tempers to be upset by
the inevitable veXations of routine.
Be reasonable also in require
ments of your friends. The same
holds good of persons as of things.
Human nature is not ideal. No one
on acquaintance will be perfectly
lovely. Most people will have a
good many disagreeable character
istics and actions. Every one will
have something the matter with
Y fntn L. IL
things sometimes that you cannot
understand. You can write this IN
italics. You never will meet the
exact counterpart of the creature oil
your imagination. You never will
find in this world any person who
will fully answer your desires
Though you peer into every face and
life that you meet, you will nevel
discover the angel that you have
constructed in your mind.
Be willing to take all this into
consideration. Your friends have
rights and immunites as well as you
Remember that others have to pu
up with disagreeable traits anC
moods in you. You may often
consciously or uncOnsciously, offend
You may have annoying hablti
which you cannot help or of which
YOU are unaware, or there may b.
moments in which you do not fee
like exerting yourself to be pleasant
or moments of surprise in which
you give way to long resisted temp
tatiOns-outbursts of spleen, irony
or sarcasm. Bear in mind you
own frailties and your own prOvoca
tions and let the recollection tempe
your judgement of others,-EX
change.

A business man is not the most
patient creature in the world. He can
not wait to hear any long drawn-out
story of the cause of his ailment. He
doesn't care two straws about a fine
spun theory of how he should treat
himself, He may be predisposed to
scrofula, or consumption. THAT" he
will tell you "has nothing to do with the
case" He wants to be well. If he can
be cured, write out a prescription and
send in your bill. So, here's the first
part of the proposition. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is a microbe
hunter and killer. Many persons Of
scrofulous blood, encourage the break

the disease going to the lungs, There

We have heard a great deal in the
past year about wOman's mission
and woman's sphere, until between
the two contending forces we have
begun to wonder whether woman
really has any right to exist on the
earth at all.
On the other hand, we have been
told that she is entirely too good for
this earth, but while watching to
see her unfold her downy wings and
fly away to some spot where politi-
cal economy is unheard of, along
comes another argumentative per-
SON and tells us that woman is such
"a very inferior creature that we
look to see her swallowed up in
stantly in that pit W hose bottom has
not yet been sounded.
Instead of either of these things
happening, woman continues to per-
form much the same mission that
has fallen to her lot since the world
began, doing it better in some cases
than others, more appreciated some
times than at others, but doing her
mission and developing with the
race and the world into new OppOr-
tunities, higher duties and greater
privileges. 1t is an old teaching,
but one which we need constantly
to recall to mind, that the one who
does that duty which is nearest at
hand is the one who accOmplishes
the most for the world. 1t is as true
of classes as it is of Individuals
Exchange.

they follow the other shapes to
gratifying extent. They are trimmed
with bows, folds and loops in great
variety. Even widows bonnets,
while the widow is young, are made
puffs, Tam O'Shanter crowns and
plated brims are seen, with the
teltale border of white next the
hair. The long wells are now, after
the funeral is over, doubled in the
centre and put on so that half falls
on each side and all toward the
back, leaving the face free save for
the thin little mask veil so necessary
to help in keeping the bonnet on,
which the weight of the long veil is
always trying to drag off.
The most stylish veil for early
mourning is of heavy English Grape,
with hens respectfully nine and
eighteen inches deep and four yards
long; but, such a veil being a tor
ture, it Is shortened as time passes
or the lady buys lighter one. The
best English Grape is now made
waterproof, so that it can be literal
ly soaked in water and the crinkle
never comes out. Some wells are
embroidered around the edge with
chenille, but hem is more elegant.

simple and Effective Trimming.
The use of flat tape as dress trim
ming is IA small matter in itself, but
after all nearly everything is made
up of small matters. White linen
tape sewed on such garments as it is
suitable for is undeniably pretty,
particularly when it is tlanked on
either side by a row Of serpentine
tape. Linens, crashes and all cot
ton goods are made prettier and
more dressy by its application.
Sometimes there will be line of
white serpenttne tape with Il line of
narrow bObbin cord sewed neatly
each side of it, but the finest effects
are gained by the use of the flat
tape. There is also very narrow
tape woven in blue and white, red
and white, etc. This is often sewed
beside the white tape, and in one
particular instance it was sewed be-
side the white, fiat tape with row
of narrow serpentine at its edge. 1t
was on a gray linen blouse. The
fold in front had row of serpentine
in the centre, a red and white tape
each side of that and wide white
tape outside of this. 1t made a very
striking ornamentation, particular
ly when taken with the double fiat
collar and revers, each carrying out
the same scheme of trimming and
color. On the bottom Of the blouse
the tape was set on the edge as il
was on the collar and revers. There
was line down the outside seam o.
the sleeves and around the wrists
and a short distance up under the
seam. This mode of trimming il
particularly adapted to children
school dresses-ginghams may b'
effectively trimmed In white tape
at very small expense.
