Woman's Sigh for a Pocket.

How dear to this heart are the old fashioned dresses
When fond recollection presents them to viewi
In fancy see the old wardrobes and presses
Which held the loved gowns that in girlhood
knew
The widespreading mohalr the silk that hung by 1t;
The straw coored satin with trimmings of brown
The RULED foulard the pink organde nigh II;
But oh, for the pocket that hung In each gowni
The oldfashioned pocket, the obsolete pocket,
The praiseworthy pocket that hung In each
gown.
That dear, roomy pocket, I'd hail as a treasure.
Could but behold 1t in gowns OF to day;
I'd find 1t the source OF an exquisite pleasure,
But all my modistes sternly answer me "Nayp
'Twould be 80 convenient when going out shopping.
'Twould hold my small purchases coming from
town;
And always my purse or my kerchlef I'm dropping
oh, mel for the pocket that hung in my gown
The old fashioned pocket, the obsolete pocket,
The prai,eworthy pocket that hung in my
gown.
A gown with pocketi How fondy I'd guard itl
Each day ere I'd don It, I'D brush II with care:
Not full Paris costume could make me discard 1t,
Though trimmed with the lsees empress might
wear.
But have no hope, for the fashion 10 banished;
The tear Of regret will my fond Visions drown;
As fancy reverts to the days that have vanished.

A Touching Story,

A very touching story of the love
and devotion of motherhood, love and
devotion that time, distance, evil deeds,
disgrace, nothing can wholly efface, is
told by the Chicago Times Herald. A
boy, the black sheep of the family, who
had been absent from the home fire.
side many years was brought home
dead. Just before the casket was closed
the old mother rose from her seat,
came TO the face of her dead boy and
slipped silver dollar into his pocket,
saying:
He never liked 10 be without a dol
lar. Many's the dollar I've slipped
into his pocket unbeknown to him, but
he always found it and was thankful.
| don't expect he's going to need it
now and maybe lie will never know
that his mother put it there, but some
how l shall feel better if he has it.
No, faithful, loving, devoted mother,
maybe he will never know that mother
put that dollar there, but God knows
it, and the recording angel has writ it
down, and maybe it will bring forth
fruit an hunderd fold in that great day
when the books of all human lives are
balanced forever and forever.-St. Al
bans Messenger.

laughed at him. Then his own mother
came and begged and prayed me to
give him up, and laughed at her, too.
And when he did not come for me one
night as he had promised, l made ex-
cuses for him to my father, and when
my father said l should never marry
him, l ran away. l loved him, Jack,
and nothing counts against that"
Still the bowed head was not raised
and presently she went on again.
"You need not worry so, Jack. Your
father worried before he came to me.
He thought as you do. But she loves

when she is with you, and have talked
with her about you" Her son raised
his eyes at last to meet hers. eyes,"
he said quietly. "She loves me. l do
not doubt that. And perhaps she
would take the risk. But shall not
make il question of choice, Queen.

broke, and the head went down again.
His mother rose and going over to
his chair, stroked the dark head softly
with one slender white hand. 1t was
loaded with the rings his father had
given her. Jack often wondered how
she could bear to wear them still.
"Jack," she said quietly at last, "you
have guessed. came in here to say
just that to you. l came to tell you to
60 and die in the woods alone--at least

face changed suddenly. "But Jack,

There was no answer. Presently
she went on again. "But you must
keep trying, Jack. He always tried
and l could not answer for her if you
should forget to do that or stop caring
for her."
She rose and went over to the little
table on which stood picture of John
Huntoon, the elder. She lifted the Gu

FILTERED BLOOD.
MOrrOw's Method Of Curing Diseases
Accusing the Interest of
Scientists.

Physicians of all schools are beginning to
realize that the primary cause of nearly every
disease that attacks the human system is the
failure of the kidneys to perform the duties
nature assigned them.
The blood is constantly absorbing from the
different articles of food taken into the stom'
ach, various impurities, which, if permitted to
course through the system, quickly render the
blood unfit to carry on the process of healthy
nutrition and ultimately result in the develop
ment of disease.
1t is the duty of the kidneys to filter the
Blood the slightest irregularity in the per-
Torrance of this function is Immediately mani
tested in general weakness of the body; a
tendency to give out with little exertion. This
symptom is closely followed by others of much
more distressing nature which it is often GUS
tomary to attribute to other causes.
John Morrow, an eminent chemist of Spring
field, Ohio using as basis for his work the
theory that the kidneys are responsible for the
CONDITION of our health, has produced new
remedy which he has named Morrow's Kidne
ODDS, the purpose of which is to act directly on
the kidneys eliminating all unnatural deposits
and rectifying the damage caused by their ex-
istence.
The remarkable results obtained by this
medicine have attracted wide attention and
established new method of treating disease,
the efficacy of which cannot be disputed
Morrow's Kidneoids are prepared in yellow
tablets so small as to almost rob them of their
virtue in the eyes of those not versed in medi
cine, but so potent is their influence that their
effects are noticed almost Immediately.
They are now on sale generally. If not to
be had OF your dealer, they will be sent post
paid on receipt of 80 cents per box, boxes for
$3.50, by the Herb Medicine Co, Springfield,
Ohio.

spun round and round. "God, but it's
hard" he mutiered. His man who
was waiting in the next room heard
him and came in with glass of some
thing cool and foaming on a tray.
"Drink this sir, and you'll feel better.

kindly.

The man covertly brushed his sleeve
across his eyes as he turned away. He

easily the same phrase had slipped
from his lips. "The Huntoons all die
