STORY OF A SLAVE.

To be bound hand and foot for
years by the chains of disease is the
worst form of slavery. George D.
Williams, of Manchester, Mich,
says: "My wife has been so help
less for five years that she could not
turn over in bed alone. After using
two bottles of Electric Biiters she
is wonderfully improved and able to
do her own work" This supreme
remedy for female diseases quickly
cures nervousness, sleeplessness,
melancholy, headache, backache,
fainting and dizzy spells. 1t is a
godsend to weak, sickly, rundown
people. Cute guaranteed. Only 5oc.

Slde-Lights on Life.

One way to judge a mans char
acter is by what he doesn't say.
Happiness results from being
content with what you haven't got.
Thought is company only for
those who are capable of entertain
ing it.
Don't cry over split milk; hustle
around and get some more milk
tickets.
Wisdom is one Of the things that
don't come to the man who sits
down and waits.
There are but two periods in a
mans life when he doesn't under
stand woman. One is before
marriage and the other after.
Next to knowing when to grasp
an opportunity the most important
thing is to know when to let go
of it.
There is one good thing about
the man with trouble on his mind.
He never breaks into your office

Teaching q Horse Tricks.

You can, with patience, teach your
horse politeness-to bow to an audi
ence. to say mo" with more or less
decision, to kiss you or even laugh.
The animal may be taught to bow by
tapping him on the back with a whip.
He bends his head in trying to avoid
the annoyance. The trainer ceases the
tapping, caresses him, then resumes
1t till he repeats the bow. He Is again
caressed and presented with a carrot
Or something of which he Is particular
ly fond. At last it comes about that
he "bows" upon any movement of the
whip toward his back.
To teach a horse to say ''No" a pin
is fastened to the butt Of the whip. A
slight scratch is given to the horses
withers, about where the collar would
be. At this he shakes his head and
soon learns to shake it whenever he
sees the butt of the whip coming near
his withers.
The trainer teaches the animal ''to
kiss by feeding him with apples from
his mouth, gradually lessening the size
of the apples till the horse does the
trick without any, or he puts salt, OF
| which horses are very fond, on his
cheek, and the animal naturally llcks
1t off.
He Is taught to laugh by gently fore
ing the butt Of the whip in at the side
Of his mouth, then prying his mouth
| open with it. Caresses and carrots fol
low, till at last the slightest motion OF
the butt toward his mouth makes hin
open 1t. He does not really laugh; he
| grins.-Good Words.

A lady writes to me and asks what
is really meant by the needles eye"
In the parable of the rich man. I re-
member reading somewhere that it was
the smallest gate that gave entrance
to the walled city of Jerusalem and
that q loaded camel had to be stripped
Of it's burden and bend it's knees to
squeeze through. And so q rich man
had to give up his riches and come
to his knees before he could enter
heaven. 1t was just one Of the thou
sand proverbs that adorned the moral
teachings of the Jews and the eastern
nations. The writings of Job and Solo
mon and Confucius and Mohammed
abound in them.
In the Koran is found this proverb,
''The impious man will find the gates
of heaven shut, and he can no more en-
ter than a camel can pass through a
needles eye" There is another in
the Koran which says. "You will never
see a palm tree of gold nor an elephant
pass through needles eye" These
proverbs simply meant that it was i'm
possible. Strange to say, the world
has long since quit making proverbs.
All proverbs have come down to us,
even such as "a rolling stone gathers
no moss" Poor Richard" left us q
few, such as "a penny saved is two
pence gained."-Bill Arp in Atlanta

behind brave men.
Quiet was restored when the real
cause Of the disturbance was learned.
Car 1911 had been about to cross the
switch tracks at Ashland avenue when
the conductor asked the man for his
fare. He took $5 bill and was about
to make change when he saw the
warning lights ahead.
"Wait a moment" he said and dart
ed ahead with his lantern.
"Stop the carp roared the excitable
passenger, who saw the conductor and
his So disappearing down the track.
Hes got my money"
The would be "holdup' man had
reached the front door when the car
flashed past the conductor, who was
waiting for the rear platform. The
passenger tried to jump from the car,
but found it impossible because Of the
Archer avenue bridge structure. Then
he made a mad dash for the rear door,
where the conductor met him with q
polite "Don't forget your change, sir"

PYTHIAN TEMPLE CORNER STONE LAID

The cornerstone of the new Pythian
temple, now being erected on South
Main street, between Galena and Mer-
lcury, was laid yesterday afternoon, n
the exercises preceding the ceremony
were imposing.
A procession of knights to the place
was one of the main features. It was
headed by the Alice band: then came
the chief marshal and his aides, followed
by two divisions of the uniform rank,
then subordinate lodges, four grand Off
GERS and members of the grand lodge.
The second division vas headed by the
grand master-at-arms; then came the
grand chancellor, grand vice chancellor,
grand keeper of records and seal, grand
inner, guard, brigadier general, grand
prelate, grand master of eXchequer and
grand outer guard.
When the procession halted opposite
the contemplated structure. it divided
into two lines, facing inward. about ten
feet apart. The grand master-at-arms
then approached the building between
the two lines, and, addressing the arch
itect, NJ. D. Kern. asked if everything
was in readiness, to which the response
was given, TT is" "a
The grand master-at-arms then re-
turned to the grand chancellor and an
nounced to him 1hat all was ready. The
