OppOrtunity.

In one of the old Greek cities there
stood long ago a statue. Every trace Of
it has vanished now. But-there is still
in existence an epigram which gives us
an excellent description of it, and as
we read the words we can surely dis
cover the lesson which those wise old
Greeks meant that the statue should
teach to every passerby. The epigram
is In the form of a conversation be-
tween a traveller and the statue:
what is thy name, o statueT
az am called Opportunity"
"Who made theeY'
"Lysippus."
"Why art thou on thy toesT'
''To show that stay but moment"
"Why hast thou wings on thy feet"
ITO show how quickly pass by"
"But why is thy hair SO long on thy
forehead?"
"That men may seize me when they
meet me-"
"Why, then, lie thy head so bald be-
hind"
ITO show that when have once
passed cannot be caught.

To Found a Model Town.

A gigantic scheme is afioat to found q
great model industrial town in the east
ern part of the country, where shall be
gathered a variety OF manufacturers and
an army of employees, under social con
ditiOns; the town and manufactures to
be organized according to the most ap
proved business methods, with the high
est regard to the physical and intellect
ual welfare Of its residents. Fifty years
ago, medicine was founded which also
had in view the welfare of humanity.
This was Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
remedy famed the world over for it's cure
of dyspepsia, constipation indigestion,
belching, insomnia, biliousness, nervous
ness and malaria, fever and ague. AS a
strengthening tonic and blood purifier,
it is unequalled. A trial will certainly
convince you of its value.
