Broken Brio q Bra cs.

Mr. Major. the famous cement man. of New
York explains some very interesting facts
about Majors cement.
The multitude who use this standard article
know that is it many hundl ed per cent. better
than other cementS for which similar claims
why. The simple reason is that Mr. Major
uses the best materials ever discovered and
other manufacturers Go not use them be-
cause they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that one of
the elements of his cement costs 8. - a round
and another costs g. % q gallon, while large
share of the sO-called cements and lioui1
sixteen-cent glue, dissolved in water or citric
acid, and. in some cases altered slightly i'm
color and odor by the addition of cheap and
useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty five cents a bottle, and when dealer
tries to sci! substitute you can depend upon
it his only object is TO make larger profit
The profit on Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement,
And this is doubtly true in view Of the fact
that each dealer gets his share Of the Eenefit
amounts to over 5000 a month thrOnohont
the country. Established in 1876

offhand advice from a druggist
If you are at all handy {and you will he
likely to ind that you are good deal more so
than you imagine) you can repair YOUR rub

WELLlNGTON'S DECISION.

When the Moment to Strike Had
Come, He Did Not Hesitate.
Badajos lies in Spain five miles from
the Portuguese frontier. 1t was the
key of a situation. Wellington's chance
was to strike at Badajos before the
French marshals could combine and
crush him. His task was both in front
Of him and behind him. He lacked
transport; he lacked food for the men;
instead of bread; the buflocks were
weak and emaciated. All this was the
doing of the parliament at home
But Wellington knew that the mo-
ment to strike had come, and he seems
to have hesitated very little. Placing
no faith in the tongues of the PortIl-
guese, he made his plans with all pos
sible secrecy. The guns for the siege
were loaded on board the transport at
Lisbon and consigned to fictitious adj
dress. But in the river Sadhao they
were placed upon smaller vessels, and
finally they were again landed and
drawn by bullocks to Eloas, a post in
the possession Of the allies. Having
stationed two-thirds of his force under
General Graham and General Hill to
prevent most probable interference
by Soult and Marmont, Wellington adj
vanced, reaching Eloas on the 18th of
March, 1912. He had made the most
incredible eXertions.
The stupidity of the Portuguese had
We'd with the stupidity Of the govern
ment at home. Wellington had been
carrying the preparation for the cam
paign upon his own shoulders If he
was to win Badajos, he was to win it
with no help save that from gallant
and trustworthy subordinates. He was
i'll withal. Even his strangely steel
like nature had bent beneath the trou-
BILE of preparation amid such indiffer-
ence. But on March 16 Beresford, with
three divisions, crossed the Guardiana
on pontoons and flying bridges, drove
the enemy's outposts and invested
Badajos Crane in New Lip
pincOtt'S.

OLD TIMES, OLD FRIENDS, OLD LOVE.

There are no days like the good old days
The days when were youthful;
When humankind were pure of mind
And speech and deeds were TRUTHFUL;
Before love for sordid gold
Became mans ruling passion
And before each dame and maid became
Slaves to the tyrant fashion.
There are no girls like the good old girls
Against the world I'd stake 'em-
AS buxom and smart and clean of heart
AS the Lord knew how TO make 'em.
They were rich in spirit and common sense,
piety all supportiI;
They could bake and brew and had taught
school, too,
And they made the likeliest courtin.
There are no boys like the good old boys
When we were boys together,
When the grass was sweet to the brown bare feet
That dimpled the laughing heather,
When the pewee sung to the summer dawn
Of the bee in the billowy clover,
Or down by the mill the whippoorwill
Echoed his night song over.
There is nc love like the good old love-
The love that mother gave US.
We old, old men, yet we pine again
For that precious grace-God save us.
So we dream and dream of the good old times,
And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder,
AS those dear old dreams bring soothing CLEANS
Of heaven away. off yonder

THE CITY OF HONGKONG.
1t Is One of the Most Unhealthy
Spots on the Globe.

Spots on the Globe.
In spite of all the precautions that
have been taken, the perfect sanitation
Of the city, the fine natural drainage,
the cleanliness of the streets, Hong
kong is one of the most unhealthful
spots on the globe. With it's tropical
heat the lofty peaks that half encircle
it catch the clouds that the rapid
evaporation create, and they are
squeezed like a sponge, the floods of
rain pouring down in streaming tor
rents.
The houses lack light, although they
are built as well as they could be, with
perforated ceilings, through which the
air circulates, admitted from openings
pierced by the outer walls. The floors
are brilliantly waxed, carpets, owing
to the great dampness, being dispens-
ed with. The great difficulty is to Sc
cure light and proper ventilation The
streets are very narrow, and the tower
ing walls of buildings opposite OBJ
struct the light in front, while at the
rear the courts of terraces crowded
with foliage cast heavy shade from
that direction. In the gardens, while
plants flourish luXuriantly, there is no
grass, but the ground is green with
moss, just as it grows in damp, shady
places in cooler climates. The heat
and the great humidity are destructive
to health, and it is doubtful if there is
kingle normal liver in the whole of
Hongkong.
English women who come out with
compilations of cream and roses grow
thin and sallow The Hongkong COM
plexion is a startling grayish green,
and the old resident has with this pal
lor dark blush circles under the eyes.
The least eXertion includes exhaust
ing perspiration, and people become
gaunt and thin.-Boston Transcript.
