ENJOYED THE WHISKY.
Mrs. Jones had hired two men 10 help
her with her house cleaning. "Those
picture frames" she told them "should
be cleaned" Yes" answered one Of
the men, land IL you could let Us get
some whiskey, why, it's the fiuest thing
to clean them with" "Qh," she
answered, "if whiskey will clean them,
1 will send down bottle Of 1t I bsvs
upstairs, and you may try it," The
meu washed the frames with soap aud
water, and, Of course, drank the
whiskey. When Mrs. Jones saw the
frames bright and giistening she
remarked: "And so whiskey cleaned
those frames" "Yes," said one OF the
men. ait Was the Whiskey that did It,"
"And just TO think" remarked the
womsn," Icams very near throwing

by his deep thinking and all contriving

fore Thanksgiving Day. The entire
school shall be represented. The High
School took its first step TO the effect
last Friday morning. The three differ
ent divisions appointed one Of their own
number TO represent them. The respec-
tive division also elected officers TO per-
form should they be called TO do bust
ness again. They afterwards were
consolidated and elected one at large TO
represedt the entire Society. The next
step was taken Friday evening when
each class chose one Of its members 10
represent it.

Nor was ! to blame for this feeling of
argeness, for when body is anybody in

We had a pleasant society in our town,

but still quite attractive, and, on the whole,
of a higher intelligence than that of larger
places, and to say that was shining light
in the circle was putting it mildly.

The Gales had been residents of our town
for only three years, having come from the
adjoining county, and for that number OF
years had been devoting myself to her.
And this three years was the one clrcum-
stance that made me think sometimes that

for Deborah had not yet accepted me, al
though she had been asked to do so on an
aver0e of about once month.

Every invalid and sick person needs
strength. This food gives it.
Many people get the complete system for
the sake of the perfected Emulsion OF Cod

they themselves need, and give away the
other three preparations to their friends.
The second article is Psychine Tonic. It
is good for weak, thin, dyspeptic, nervous

who need bracing up.
The third preparation is medicinal zeal

1t gives immediate relief. 1t is also a dainty

Perhaps fifty thousand readers of MY

pleases her greatly. 1t has a heavy,
square frame of oak. On this is
stretched denim, and over the denim
is glued a rich, dull, red art paper.
On the paper is painted a design of
black scrolls, and over it are scat
tered certain wise sayings, culled from
many sources, and printed in large,
black art type. Here are some of them

One or two are physicians and clerks.

THE WHITE GOWN.

There is absolutely no waning in the
popularity of white. Never before was
so much white worn. Cloth, alpaca,
homespuns, white china crepe, and
other materials are much in demand,
while inevitably for summer wear
white musins will be all the rage, di-
viding popular favor with white pique,
which will be exceedingly smart made
up with tiny gilt buttons and touches
of gilt trimming.
Among the favorite combinations are
black and white, and green and white,
both of which are striking. Particu-
larly in foulards these combinations are
noticeable. The prettiest among the
new silks are the white ground fou-
lards with green foliage designs run
ming through them. The latter are
often trimmed with a touch of black
guipure edging a hounce of net or one
of white or ecru guipure. The effect is
strikingly original
