GREEN & BENTLEY DRuG Co.
Fooled the Neishbors

A party of young ladies', on mis-
chief bent, had world of fun Friday
evening by "blacking up" and play.
ing jokes upon a number of unsus.
pecting neighbors and friends. The
biggest part of the fun came when
the aforesaid young ladies attempted
to wash off the color. They had not
used the right sort of black or did
not understand it's removal and they
had much difficulty in removing all
of the dusky tints. If you have sus-
picions as to their identity, you will
possibly be able to satisfy yourself as
to the correctness thereof for it is
said there still turks about the hair
and in spots, a trace or two of the
grease paint and burnt cork.
The participants in the fun claim
that they had good time, but they
are not anxious to try it again soon.

LESSON THOUGHTS.
While reverence will manifest itself in
outward forms it does not consist of
those manifestations; it is an inner con-
sciousness.
All ground is holy ground; all time is
holy time; every honest work is holy
work, five realize that God is everyw here,
we are constantly in his presence and
under his eye.
Reverence is not servile fear, but wor-
shipful love.
SELECTIONS.
In the spirit of that significant Orient
al usage which drops its sandals at the
palace door, the devout worshipper will
put off his travel-tarnished shoes, will
try to divest himself of secular anxieties
and worldly projects, when the place
where he stands is converted into holy
ground by the words, Let us worship
Cod"
We must come to God; we must not
come too near him. When we mediate
on the great mysteries of his word, we
come to him. We come too near him
when we search into his councils. The
sun and the fires say of themselves,
Come not too near; how much more the
light which none can attain unto? We
have all our limits set us.
None but man having fellowship with
God could have seen the bush that day,
for it required eyes unsealed to the in
sight of faith. God reveals his secrets
and gives his calls to those who live in
communion with him.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
Q worship the King all glorious above.
Take time to be holy.
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord.
Come into his presence with singing.
All hail the power of Jesus name.
III thee exalt, ny God, o King.

She did so, taking with her their little

approach him.

Life.

The poets exclamation: 20 Life!
feel thee bounding in my veins" is JOY
Gus one. Persons that can rarely or
never make it in honesty to themselves
are among the most unfortunate. They
do not live, but exist; for to live implies
more than to be. To live is to be well
and strong-to arise feeling equal to the
ordinary duties of the day, and to retire
not overcome by them to feel life bound
ing in the veins. A medicine that has
made thousands Of people, men and
women, we'll and strong, has accomplish
ed great work, bestowing the richest
blessings, and that medicine is Hoods
Sarsaparilla. The weak, n.down, OF
debilitated, from any cause, should not
fail to take it. 1t builds up the whole
system, changes existence into life, and
makes life more Astounding. We are
glad to say these words in its favor to
the readers of our columns.

The following story shows the fine
lines of distinction sometimes drawn on
the other side: A stage coach that used
to run between two towns in Yorkshire,
England, had three prices for carrying
passengers who, therefore, paid either a
frst-class, second class, or third class
fare. But no matter what price was
paid, no distinction was made in the
matter of seats, and this caused much
wonder among travellers who rode on
the coach for the first time. On reaching
a large hill between the two towns,
however, the distinction became appar'
ent, for the driver halting the coach at
the foot of the hill, called out: First
class passengers keep their seats, second
class passengers get out and walk, third
class passengers get out and push"

In the Superior Court at Concord, N.
H., Friday, A. Perley Fitch, the druggist,
secured verdict of 1850 for preserv-
ing in alcohol for ten years the ampu-
tated leg of the late John H. Pearson, a
wealthy resident of that city. In 1887
Mr.. Pearson was attacked with a dis
ease which caused the amputation of his
right leg just below the knee. He turned
the leg over to Druggist Fitch with in
structions to preserve it in alcohol. Mr..
Fitch followed out the request and for
ten years the leg rested in glass jar in
the back office of the store. Shortly af-
ter Mr.. Pearson's death in 1899, the leg
was buried in the same grave as its
owner and the druggist sent "a bill of
So ,450 to the executors of the estate.
The executors refused to pay the bill,
with the result that Mr.. Fitch brought
suit and got damages.
Dismissals from Naval and Military
Academies.
Following the example set at West
Point, the superintendent of the Naval
Academy, has caused cadet to be dis
missed for hazing. In this case, however
that Of Calvin 10y Cressey, of the
fourth class, of California-the accused
cadet was tried by court martial and
regularly convicted. The statement
made public at the Navy Department is
as follows: The details Of the court mar
tial are not made public. but it is under
stood that the dismissed cadet was dis
covered in the act of hazing junior in
his room by compelling him to stand on
his head. 1t was suspected that the
practice might spread rapidly, so speedy
and drastic action was taken as a deter
rent. Two cadets, members of the first
class, were summarily dismissed Wednes-
day from the United States Military
Academy. They are Stephen B. Werner,
of Syracuse, N. Y, and Charles S. Perry,
of Iowa. They were court martialled
upon charge of having falsely obtained
permission to leave the post. This per-
mission having been granted them, they
were subsequently detected by an army
officer drinking at a bar in Newburg.
They were dismissed without travel pay,
and started for home Immediately.
