REMEMBERED BEST OF ALL.

When I'm looking back the time worn
pages
OF the book of years, face always see,
Just gentle face, that alters not nor ages,
But seems now and evermore the same to me-
I can feel a loving hand In mine intwining
When my faltering childish steps were fain to
fall
With its watchful eyes like stars upon shin
ing
IT'S the face that remember best of all!
When look around and memory is bringing
Back again the echoed songs Of long ago,
Songs that ever down the halls of time ring
ing,
Songs that set my listening youthful heart
aglow,
All the visions bright of years gone by they bring
me,
And they seem to hold my spirit in their thrall
But the simple air dear voice used to sing me
Is the song that remember best of all!
When 1 dream of all the gladness that has blest
And the sunshine that has made 1ifes pathway
bright
When long from all the toll of earth to rest me
Till the dawning of the day that knows no
night,
remember all the love the years have taught me,
And the happiness that filled them recall,
But mothers love and all the Joy it brought me
Is the love that remember best of ALI

The English Army Omcer.

In olden days in England the army
and the church were the only callings
that could in any way be considered
aristocratic, for they claimed almost a
monopoly Of physical and mental pow
er. Times have changed. but the pow
ers that decide what is and what Is
not aristocratic are intensely conserva-
tive. and they still uphold the claims of
the army to distinction of this sort
The soldier, as attached by service
to his sovereign. the recognized head
of the aristocracy, is an acknowledged
supporter and member of that class.
The military element represents the
physical force of the country. to which
in any extremity the final appeal must
be made. and so it's officers are part
of the ruling power, which is assumed
to be aristocratic. The soldier. too,
draws his income directly from the
state and is not compelled to seek the
favor of the general public, as men,
bers of other professions must. He Is
independent of all popular influence
and pressure and so stands high in So
cial rank and esteem. - London An

A Mathematical Machine.

A lightning calculator, the invention
Of an expert mathematician, is one of
the newest labor and time saving de-
vices out, and many people will be in
terested to learn q machine has been
produced which entirely eliminates null
DUPLICATION from percentage computa-
tions. The machine is quite similar in
appearance to the cover of typewriter
The printed figures are fastened to a
slide board that fits into a cylinder
which turns back and forth by means of
a knob handle. These slides are Tapped
behind an index board having nine di-
visions or sections, on each of which
stand the numerals. The range of pos
sible results is from zero to infinity It
is operated with the thumb and finger
Of the left hand, thus leaving the right
hand free to write down additions and
answers.
The combinations have the same po-
sition in front of the eyes as the keys of
typewriter. The inventor declared
his invention dispensed with multiple
cation and that the true percentage
could be found at any rate, from one
tenth of 1 per cent to 80 per cent, or
from any sum from the thousandth part
of cent to any sum capable of being
written. It substitutes mechanical cor
rectness for mental uncertainty, saves
valuable time and prevents physical ex-
haustion. Exchange.

Something For Nothing.

The eagerness for stock market tips
In this speculative era does not abate,
and the swindling operator has only to
dangle the bait of big profit before
the public to induce the latter to shed
their pocketbooks and all their belong
ings. When will the public under
stand that reputable, well established
brokers never condescend to such dis
reputable gambling methods in order
TO attract custom? When will my
readers comprehend the fact that tho
man or firm offering extraordinary in
ducements and unreasonable rates of
interest or profits may be set down at
once as suspicious person. from
whom one cannot escape too quickly?
