He has, however, signed three petitions

A TRAGEDY AvERTED.
The Man with an Empty Stomach Is a
Dangerous Being.

\
Dangerous Being.
The mood Of the man is bitter.
Gloom is upon his brow
He scowls fercely.
Anon he mutters, and his mutter-
ings are as maledictions.
The baby toddles against his foot
and he Immediately drives it away.
Tragedy is in the atmosphere. In
such moods have men done murder.
Is the woman alarmed No. to
any noticeable degree. She glances
at the man, notes his corrugated
brow, and whispers: "Poor Johnl
1t is late"
Then she bustles about her work,
and soon she speafs; Dinner is
ready, John"
Magic words!
In two minutes the man feels bet
ter; in three minutes he has recov-
cred; in five he is calm; in seven,
peaceful; ten, happy; fourteen, filled
with ineffable bliss.
Now the man smiles constantly;
he tells funny stories; good-nature
Oozes from him, and when the woman
tenderly asks if he can afford two
seats for the theater, he says: "Of
course" and beams upon her.
And this is one man, not two, and
thus is the evil spirit exercised.

Tears and Fears

Tears and Fears
Go together with many women who are
approaching the first experience of ma
ternity. The husband finds it hard per-
haps to understand the changing moods
of his wife. Indeed she cannot under
stand herself. She only knows that She
is nervous, restless and anxious. A
great change has come over her which
She cannot understand or explain.
Women do not always reflect that at
this crisis they are living for two in
stead OF one; that they need health for
two and strength for two. The need for
increased health and strength by the
prospective mother IS perfectly met and
satisfied by DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. 1t tranquilizes the nerves,
promotes the appetite and gives refresh

vent practically painless, and gives the
mother strength to give her child.

SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY.
y Revealed to- the Close Observer and
the Careful Listener

= Revealed to- the Close Observer and
the Careful Listener
That we learn something new
every day is a fact that we seldom
,hink of when routine is the order Of
Dur lives; but let our regular daily
programme be interrupted by an in
uoyation, however slight, and we
must be impressed by the number Of
strange things that come under our
observation. 1t is not necessary that
the regular course of our usual con-
duct should be broken into in order
that new things may come under our
eyes; there are new lessons every day
ready for us in the things we may do
and hear, the places we may 60 and
the people we may see, even 365
times in the year. The lessons from
new scenes and acts and people are
Only more numerous and more re-
markable than those to be gained
from the scenes and acts and people
of the daily routine.
If we are at home sick in bed for
a day, when we are accustomed to
spend most Of the time at business
in town, there are even then things
we learn of the neighbors, for In
stance, however well we may think
we knew them before, If the change
is a greater one, but no greater than
an evening in the country, for IN
stance, the new impressions gained
are correspondingly important.
We take little trip to a nearby
country place and We keep silent
when the conversation Of the party
that picnics at a laurel-bordered
spring concerns itself with springs.
We are unwilling to admit that al
though we are not surprised at the
existence Of this particular spring
and the charm Of it, we did not know
before that laurels were a rarity in
our woods, or that it had ever been
plentiful, and we discovered from
what was said around us how numer-
Gus springs are in the vicinity OF our
city.
On our way home in the train we
are again surprised to see along the
way big factories we had never heard
of, and to notice that their business
was concerned with articles we did
not know were made here at all.
We hear messenger boys talking
in the elevators of office buildings
and for the first time we learn
through them that among the boys
of the various messenger services in
town there is a rivalry as to speed.
"Bill Smith" we hear, ''is the fastest
boy on No. 1000" Whatever else
they might contest, we had always
thought before, it could not be a rec
ord for speed.
And so it goes, says the Atlanta
Constitution. Big things and little
we learn every day We neglect
many opportunities through which
we might learn every day more than
we do, but consciously or uncon-
sciously there is much we do learn
every day Sometimes we seek it;
sometimes it is thrust upon US. Ia
either case open eyes and ears are
good things.
