The Power of EriendSllip.

Friendship slorifleS everything It touches.
When on stormy night our friend comes
in he seems TO warm the very fire upon the
hearth: he sweetcns the sweet singer voice:
lends new meaning 10 the wise man words;
gives reminiScence an added charm: makes
old stories new: makes the laughter and
smiles come twice rs often and stay twice as
long. Friendship lies upon the heart IKE a
warm fire upon the hearth. By reason OF
friendship history exhibits every great man
as leaving his school Of thought and group
OF disciples behind him. His spirit fingers
with men long after his form has disappeared
from the streets. iS the sun Fingers III the
clouds after the day Is done. a. the melody

LOngfellow. after day and aniSht with En-

was stimulated by friendship as bees by
rose liquor and the sweet pea wine. Friend
ship always makes the heart plastic. Then
the mental furrows are al! open and mellow:
sympathy falls like dew and rain: then the
heart saith to its friend: Here am |, all
plastic 10 your touch: work upon me Your
will: for good or I'LL am thine. There

Thinking No Evil.

The root Of our temutation to believe evil
Of others doubtless i our consciousness OF
the evil within ourselves. 1t affords an un-
worthy Yet very inviting relief. TO think
that everybody else probably Is about a bad
as We are. if the truth were known. More
over. the frailty of human nature becomes
evident so often. so many trusted men prove
to have been uadeserviuS of confidence. that
some deCree of caution. and even OF suspicion
becomes natural. II We trust everybody
freely we soon suffer painful 'nsequenceS.
Now God does bid us hat our eyes
to the facts OF life We must take things
as they are and make the best OF them.
Nevertheless, he who cultivates the habit OF
thinking no evil of others not only
does his duty in the divine sight,
but is also much the wiser and happier re-
Garded merely from worldly point OF view.
II is grave misfortune TO become habitualIy
distrustful. 1t narrows and imbitters one.
1t causes others to distrust one in return. 1t
is like looking upon a landscape through
colored glasses. Nothing appears quite as
il is. The habit OF suspicion usually doml-
mates US before long. unless We resist /: sue
cessfully II is far better to be i'm
posed upon now and then. and 10 sulier

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers Ignorance; or more
frequently from q mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suffer,
and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for eNamina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address IS
Lynn, Mass.
The following lcttertrom Miss MARIE
F. JOHNSON, Centr&.ia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became SO poor that l
had to leave school. Twas tired all the
tine, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. / was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. was
gerry weak, and lost so mach flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might bencftme and wrote
YOU for advice. I followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
YOU directed, and am now as well as l
ever was. have gained flesh and have
a good color. I am completely cured OF
irregularity."

HIS HAPPENED IN KANSAS.
Saline County Farmer Is Almost
Strangled by a Sirocco.

Dennis Sullivan. who lives west OF
Brookville, is in town today marketing
his wheat and relates a strange eXpe-
rience at his place. Mr.. Sullivan has
been in this country eleven years and
came to America on account Of very
unpleasant domestic relations. The
incident referred to took place Thurs
day morning about 1130 and occurred
in a patch of rye near the Sullivan pas
ture. Mr. Sullivan went there to look
after young calf; when he entered
the field he noticed a movement in the
grass as Of some animal But no ami
NAL appeared. only some strange spirit
Of the wind or unknown thing passed
over the field in narrow zigzag path,
whirling and beating the grain in a
horrible lashing manner and coming
in Mr.. Sullivan's direction. He hu:-
riedly stepped aside and only felt the
edge of this strange element as it
swept by He was almost strangled
and fearfully wrenched and was pow
erleSs TO move. He saw the grass
beaten and torn. with dead leaves and
grain blowing the wake high in the
air aft,r the demoniacal sirocco. The
calf which stood partially in the path
was struck on the hind leg and gave
4 low below of fear and pain. As
soon as Mr.. Sullivan recovered he went
10 the calf's assistance and found the
flesh bruised and torn. and bones brok-
en- as il some mighty club had smote it.
Mr.. Sullivan says the grain traversed
over and the grass also had died clear
10 the roots. He can not account for
the terrible thing that swept upon him.
He only remembers the curse that was
hurled upon him and his household by
his aged father so many years ago in
the land beyond the sea, and is look
ing for q black-edged letter from Cour-
ty Clare from his boyhood home telling
OF his fathers death.-Salina
