Browning and !
His Servants !

Robert Browning was one Of the
kindest most democratic of men. A
pretty illustration OF it was given by
Mrs Bronson in an article published
in the Century. She said: "On a GER
tain day he met one OF his servants,
whose JOY it was to wait upon him,
carrying rather heavy basket OF
grapes and other fruits on her arm.
"Oh, Giuseppina." he cried, "let me
help youi" and seized the basket sud
denly from her hand.
The woman overwhelmed by such
condescension, protested, "froppo on
ore, signore."
"Nonsense," said the poet. you
are always helping me; won't you al
low me for once to help your
Still the woman resisted, saying, 1T
is not for such as you, o signore!"
This was more than he could bear.
I'VE are all made of the same clay,
Giuseppina," and gaining his point
for who could Withstand his will?-he
held one handle of the basket until
! they reached the palace door.
This same worthy woman is fond of
relating a story of her master which

ter. He had paid her weekly account,

A Happy Thought.

When Washington state was a part
OF Oregon Territory, and the Indians
numerous there and white people few,
there came one day to Mr.. Ms
young orchard host of red men to
help themselves to apples.
Mrs, N was alone, but she was a
brave woman Gas it behooved the pio-
neer women to be-, so she went to the
orchard and ordered the Indians to
leave. They took no notice of her, for
well they knew that Mr.. N was
working far on the other side Of his
farm.
Now it CHANGED that Mrs. N had
a set of artificial teeth. and as she
watched her apples disappearing in the
Indians baskets, happy thought oc-
CURED to her, and walking into their
midst she dropped her teeth into her
hand.
The natives gazed upon her in
amazement for a moment, held a hasty
consultation, poured the apples out
upon the ground, and speedily depart
ed. For years afterward they held
Mrs. n in reverence and awe

what a Girl Should he.

The first duty of a girl of fifteen is
to her parents. To them she should
be loving, helpful and respectful. No
matter what kind of people they are,
a daughter owes this to her father and
mother says a contributor to Wom
ans Home Companion. To her mother
especially a girl must show constant
affection. Nothing she does to keep
herself in spiritual and mental SYM
pathy with her mother can do any
thing but help her in the end. The
girl who acts with rude carelessness
toward her mother, who speaks slight
ingly to or of her, marks herself a once
as ill-bred. She may not be wanting
in genuine goodness of heart, but the
world judges by appearances, and
good-breeding shows in no particular
SO surely as in the way one treats
| ones parents.

Fighting Bob as
an Evangelist

A southern clergyman who mistook
Bob Evans for an evangelist who was
expected to conduct revival services.
has thus described the incident in the
Saturday Evening Post:
Il helped the stranger to seat in
my buggy and we drove to the parson-
age. On the way I remarked that

would have the effect OF bringing many
to the mourners' bench. His reply
that he expected no such doieful re-
suits from his brief stay struck me
at the time as bit peculiar, but, OF
course, held my peace. When I said
that we had looked forward to his
coming with great anticipation of rich
harvest, and he replied that he had
hoped to escape unrecognized, 1 mar

excessive modesty. Then he grew 81

One day Mama told Milton that he
was older than the baby and must let
the baby have his toys if he wanted
them, because the baby was the lit
tiest.
Milton was very good and went in
search of other amusements all day.
The next morning We heard a cry
from the children, and going to find
the cause, Milton was found endeav-
oring to collect all the toys in the
room and at the same time keep the
baby away from them. Upon inquir-
ing the trouble, Milton said:
Il let him have my toys and be the
| littlest yesterday, and now I'm going
| to be the littlest to-day."-Little

use them, iron and gold must
first be got out of the ore. The
same principle applies to cod liv-
er oil. Its virtues are not in its
fatty matters; much less in its
sickening taste and smell. No
consumptive, or sufferer from any
other wasting disease, was ever
greatly benefited by the so called
"plain cod liver oil. The shock
it gives to the nerves, the repul-
sion and disgust it excites in the
stomach, the outrages it commits
upon the senses Of smell and
taste, are enough to spoil any
medicinal potency that may be
in it for the majority of people.
This-to say nothing about its
being -indigestible. Yet there
has always been reason to believe
that, among the elements which
form cod liver oil, there ex-
listed curative properties of the
highest value. But it was neces-
sary to separate them from the
nauseating waste material with
which they were combined. This
was successfully accomplished in
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
and in this effective remedy,
made palatable as honey, we have
the very heart and soul of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites, Extracts of Malt and Wild
Cherry. These constitute a tissue
builder, blood purifier, health
remover beyond comparison. Dis
ease yields to it with a complete
ness and rapidity which aston
ishes medical men quite as much
as 1t delights their patients. In
all wasting conditions, Scrofula
and Blood Disorders, La Grippe,
Chronic Bronchitis, Pulmonary
Affections, etc, it never fails to
relieve and cure. DR.. Louis W.
Bishop says: 4 take pleasure in

HARMONY.

There Is an easy way TO reach the
state OF political harmony which we'll
wishers OF the Republican party crave
Let US suggest the means:
O- a loyal support of the Republ;-
can Territorial administration.
CD The creation of political sys-
tenn which will confine the ballot at
Republican primaries 20 Republican
voters.
CD The elimination from politics of
courts of justice by party committal to
law requiring the choice OF grand and
petit jurors to be made by lot.
a. Adoption OF a municipal policy
the effect OF which would not be to sub
divide the powers of Republican Ter
ritoriaI administration among officials
who oppose Republican principles. and
which would not burden the Republic
and uncompensated taxation
This is a local platform upon which
any Republican who Is one from princi-
pie. can afford to stand. 1t only re-
quires:
Cd An honorable acceptance OF the
choice OF the Republican President OF
the United States for Governor of this
Territsry and a cessation OF all efforts
to embarrass or humiliate him.
CD A willingness to confine the
question OF Republican party organiza-
ton to the ballots OF friends and to
exclude the ballots OF foes.
CD The rejection by common party
consent OF all unfair and illegftimatel
methods OF doing party politics.
a. The creation OF legitimate politi-
cal opportunities for the Republican
party and not for parties opposed 10 it.

reasonable objection the chance to do

OCEAN GREYHOUNDs.

The record passage across the Allan

one, has been logged by some OF the
new German liners. one OF them hav-

"THE WORLD" WELL STAGED.
ElIefords Present Popular DTamaliu
Good Shape.

The Ellefords seem to have secured an
excellent measure q success with the
repertoire that they are presenting at
the orpheum. The type of plays at pres
ent posted is that known as the popular
drama stories OF strong dramatic plot
with character types from everyday life,
plenty Of action. plenty OF comedy and
strong situations There are no com
plexitieS OF character study, no delicate
fantasies. the story is invariably strong
and easy to follow. The plays are in
variably popular however whatever
the peculiar tastes of the individual play
goer there is always some touch of hu-
man nature in broad tragedy or comedy
that will interest or amuse everybody.
Popular plays are the standby of the
travelling companies that play the towns
where one theater entertains the organ
izations that pass through and the
theatrical entertainment is limited to one
opportunity. Where, unlike the case
with larger cities. the playgoer with
prediction for light opera, high comedy,
tragedy or character plays is unable to
pick and choose his amusement from a
continual round of various entertain
ments, the popular drama is perhaps the
most satisfying.
In 1.-The World presented last evening
and tonight at the Orpheum, the plot OF
disasters and final triumph of the latter,
the love story and the broad comedy,
proves thoroughly entertaining, which is
after all the main object.
