He was one of these smooth faced
young men who chew gum because it's
ladylike and smoke cigarettes because it's
manly.
Hair cut?" asked the barber as he
threw his head back on the rest.
"Naw, course not" Indignantly replied
the customer. Cant yer see want a
shave?"
The barber hcaved a weary sigh as he
lathered the face, which looked like an
advertisement for somebody's complexion

whipped it over the strop once and
scraped the lather off with the back Of

That Americans drink far too much OF
cold beverages and consume too much OF
frozen condiments is an undoubted fact
The low temperature at which water and
liquors are so largely consumed undoubt'
edly has as much, if not more to do with
diseases of the kidneys than any other
single cause. \ writer in n hysicnic con.
temporary calls attention to the fact that
it is great mistake to imagine that colo
drinks are necessary to relieve thirst. He
says:
Very cold drinks, as a rule, increase
the feyerish condition of the mouth and
stomach and so create thirst Experience
shows it to be fact that hot drinks re
lieve the thirst and cool off the body when
it is in an abnormally heated condition
better than ice cold drinks. 1t is far bet
ter and safer to avoid the use of drinks
below 60 degrees. In fact, a higher tenn
perature is to be preferred and those
who are much troubled with thirst vii
do well to try the advantages to be de.
rived from hot drinks to which they have
been accustomed. Hot drinks also have
the advantage of aiding digestion instead
of causing debility Of the stomach and
bowels"

SO hard in fact that until his fifteenth
year he could not go to school more than
two months i'll any year. In those days,
too there were very few subjects taught.
and the few books that Horace needed
were not provided free, ms all are now.
This was very dscouragiug to little Hor-
ace, for he had to braid straw to earn the
books his studies required. Most of his
early education was gained in small
library in the town, where he found some
books on history and theology-books so
dry that no scholar of today could take
the slightest interest in them

I've seen good deal of sharpshootinp

Broome county, "but I've never seen

neighbor of mine. He was man with
a marvelously quick eye, and he could
shoot quicker and straghter than any

was shooting two swallows with one
bullet. He would make bets on this, and
when feeling right would win the money

THE LOST GARDEN.

Somewhere in the distant southland
Blooms 4 gardyn-lost TO me
Warm with poppies burning fragrant,
Drowsy fires l may not see
Subtle shadows fit and heekon
Down dim pathways bound with yew,
Where a white wrath waulers lonely
'TwiXt the darkness and the dew.
In the ruined walls that echoed
Once to happy hearted moods
Now the stealthy lightfoot lizards
Unmolested rear their broods,
And beneath the oleanders
No clear voice sings as Of old,
But the fleet caressing sunbeams
Whisper secrets 10 their mold
Though l follow as the south wind
Fares his way through wood and plain,
Though l question hill and valley,
shall never find again
Ny lost garden. where lie buried
joys that swift the glad hours sped;
Only one could bid me enter,
Only love. and love is dcad

CHILDREN'S COLUMN.
A Great American.

1t isn't every boy or girl who knows
that they are indebted TO Horace Mann
for freedom from the kind of punishment
at school that was once termed clicking"
Horace Mann did more to improve the
public school system than any other man.
His own state felt the benefits of his eff
forts first. but the systems he organized
soon became general throughout this
country and even in England.
Perhaps his work in this direction grew
out of the difficulty he experienced in OBJ
tanning his own education. His parents

WhOoping Cough.

Whooping cough, when once the acute
stage has passed, can often be relieved
by very simple means. The paroxysms
of coughing are then chiefly nervous in
character and can often, like other ncrv-
GUS spasms, be relieved BY anything
which distracts the child's attention. One
of the best ways of accomplishing this
is to hold bottle of ordinary smelling
salts under the child's nose. not suddenly,
so as to cause fright. but quietly, with
the assurance that it will help the cough.

As IN o thezter the amused sense

And all the motley of the gay pretepse
Beholds, and on an acme of suspense
Stands vibrant till the curtain falls door sv;...

OF o'erwatched yarlets intimate US thence.
Even 50 we gaze not on the things that are

The show is specious and we laugh and vyoer
At what is only meant spectacular.
And when the curtain falls we may not wait.
Death takes the lights, and We go home to

one fair lady.
And still the line Of march passed.
Not with slow, measured tread. but with
q swinging gait that denoted life, en-
ergy and intentness Of purpose.
As is we'll know about half the men
lining the sidewalks were members Of
some Of the many unions and had been
detailed to keep out OF the lire Of march
in order that they might hear what the
idlers and loiters mi hit say. Men %
posted will have little Of anything to re.
port.
But it is q woman and . womans
tongue that gets after the Affairs of life.
What one pretty lady said was 30 nicely
put that 1t must be repeated.
"See these men that are not In line"
and there was scorn in every word,
" how contemptible they are! They re-
mind me Of q little incident In my life

storm came up. Two men grabbed the

other husky fellows trembled and stood
idly by. The three were glad to be pulled
in safety but they did not have the cour-
age or the nerve to help themselves"
Hero the lady's voice piped little as
she cried:
ut was the terriers Of Bull hill that
made it possible for these fellows not
in line to get fair days pay for fair
