State Treasurer jennings when
asked yesterday what proportion o.
the State taxes for the year had been
paid in said that 50 far only about
$100, 900 IN round figures had been
received at the State treasury. This
statement tends to substantiate in 9
very forcible manner the general talk
about the hard times, particularly
when it Is considered that the entire
amount OF taxes due the State for the
year amounts To- very nearly 9 million
dollars. H IS hoped that the exten-
sion Of hmefor The payment Of taxes
without the penalty will result IN
getting in 3 good proportion OF the
outstanding taxes

A Newsboy's Gratitude.

Recorder tellsthe story of a newsboy
who, months after he had eaten q
Christmas supper, insisted or
paying the kind journalist who pro
vided it. On Christmas night ar
oldtime newspaper writer stepped
into cheap restaurant in Park
Row for cup of hot coffee. As
he took his seat at one of the small
tables aragged little boy planted
himself on the stool opposite,
There was wolfsh glare in the
Iboy'seyes as he fumbled a nickel
and said: GA plate. of beans. y
/ slipped my coffee and watched
the boy ravenously devour the
beans. Whispering to the waiter,
I told him to bring a plate of corn,
ed beef, some bread and butter
anda bowl of coffee for the, boy.
The little fellow. stared for mo-
ment and then began his meal. In
few minutes the beef, beans, bread
and coffee had disappeared, yet
the boys appetite was not salts

fed.
ssWhat kind of pie do you like?"
asked.
Most any kind; they's all good, !"
replied the boy.
Bring him some mince and
pumkin pie" said I to the wal
ter.
The boy gazed at the two pieces
of pie in wonderment and then
looked up shyly and pushed his
nickle toward me.
..What's that fori" ! asked.
eTo pay for the spread. It's all
I've got.
Taking a quarter from my pock-
ct, I laid it on the boys coin and
pushed them across the table.
SIS them for me?' said the boy,
~ - E.. .
with his mouth full of pie. Am
#I to have all thats'
Yes this is Christmas night,
Yyou know. .
es, I remember, but I had
no money for my lodging, SO I
didn't get any of the dinner down
at the Newsboys' Lodging house.
Thank you, mister, you is good ter
me. "
Months passed. One day boy
stopped menear Brooklyn Bridge.
ssSay, mister" said he 'I owe
you quarter. here It is.
Recognizing my Christmas guest,
I gently refused the money, tell
ing him that he had better keep
it.
'.No, you take it, he persis-
ted. ssThat supper and the quar-
ter you gave me brought me luck
and / have not been so hungry
since. You was SO good that night,
and I want you to take the quar-
ternow so that you can give some
other boy a Christmas supper. :"
I took the coin, and many a poor
neWsboy has had good dinner
with it since.

an angel and not subject to the u.s.
ual limitations of space and time"
But that wasn't all, for three diff
erent sick folks claimed the honor of
Mr.. Kittering's Monday afternoons.
With all that, as Mr.. Barber put it,
"Mr. Kittering, sir, was great 7isl-
tor; he was always on the road"
"He must have been," John very
feelingly replied. "Oh, the depth of
Mr.. Kittering's sermons" said old
John Mcleod, more familiarly known
as ''Holy Jonn;" ''that man spent
days and nights in his study" "Just
so," said John, and I am afraid he
meant more than he said.
Beyond all this, Mr.. Kittering
could sing like a lark, draw on the
black board like an artist and play
the organ like-an angel. John
couldn't do any of these things, but
he heard that Mr.. Kitterring could.
Nh. KitteriDg gave lectures in the
college, was popular stump speaker
and even wrote poetry which the
choir sang to music of his compos-
ing. = ..-..-.
His Sunday school addresses were
wonderful, his funeral orations deeply
sympathetic, his power in prayer re-
markable and his visits to the sick a
real means of health. Everywhere
he went John heard of him and the
singing of his praises, but at last
this very afternoon John had gone
into Widow McCammus', snd there
on the mantel in the very center
stood the photo Of Mr. Kittering,
"Oh," said the old lady, ''but he was
a darling"
So as the fire died down John got
bluer and blper. It seemed no use.
He knew they must be unconsc1ously
exaggerating, for at least no man
could be in two places at once, but
after such man could there be any
chance for a plain, humble man to
win their hearts and do good work?
Just then John thought of Uncle
Esek Martin, who IN his later bach
elor days sought comfort in the form
of widow and found it not.
One day she led him to the Gem
etary where reposed the remains OF
her first husband. There she wept
so copiously that Uncle Esek lost
patience and said to a friend he
buttonholed, "I'd give ten dollars if
she only had him again" And John
thought too, .WelL I'd give some
thing if they only had their angel,
Mr.. Kittering, back. ...
But being young and healthy and
Christian John took his Bible, turned
to the verse which says of certain
woman, aShe hath done what she
could" and said to himself, "Well,
the Master knows I have tried to, so
it's alright with him." and giving
himself mental and physical shake
turned into bed.
Ali the same he couldn't forge
Kittering. He didn't get any chance
to, and when year later the way
for his long: cherished desire
to 60 abroad as foreign missionary
7 am afraid there was just little
Kittering mixed in with the applica-
ton he sent ip, for place to do pio
neer work, "not building on any other
mans foundation" He went to the
Congo after the usual addresses, and
presentations and farewell meetings,
all of which John, being modest, set
down to the fact of his going as q
foreign missionary.
A year later the same John, but
tanned and little thinner, under

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is In poor condition is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw of
the poisons that accumulate IN it, The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before

When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore OF
ulcer heals. Itis the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. It supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nouris1
the debilitated, diseased body.
Mr. J. B. Talbert, Lock Box 245 Winona, Miss,
says: :" Six years ago my leg from the knee to
the FOOT was one solid sore. Several physician5
treated me and made two trips to Hot Springs,
but found no relief. Twas induced to try S. S. S.,
ana it made q complete cure. I have been per

10 per cent with an advancing tendency,
prices broke sharply all around. Tne rate
touched Il per cent in the morning ana
then relaxed, followed by rally In the
stock market, but when money rose again
to Is per cent, prices of stocks promptly
yielded. The largest selling of today was
attributed to the pools which were cred-
tied with causing last weeks advance in
prices and which are believed to have re-
ceived renewed warning against expansion
of credits for speculative purposes at
present. The belief that there Will be Il
prompt relaxation in money rates after
the end of the year is by no means Sel
eral. The small interior movement of
corn and of cotton points to holding
back from the market which promises a
continued retention of funds from the re-
serve oenters. The foreign exchange prob
lem is also still unsettled. with the posi-
bilty that foreign requirements Will draw
