What the Men Did.

them made Il dash for the dining
room to get water, and fell over each
other ut the door of that apartment.
One fastened to a neighboring drug
store for mixture of vichy and am
monia. One appeared suddenly with
Il glass of whiskey, obtained no one
knows where. In endeavoring to
raise the gas two able-bodied and ex-
cited masculines put it out and left
the party in total darkness for at

them fumbled in his pockets for a

calm.
Two said, '"Therc. there" and
looked at each other and asked hag-
gardly if she was quite dead.
One put his arm around her tenta-
lively, not sure that the corpse
wouldn't sit up suddenly and smite
him for his temerity. Another called

Looking for Trouble.

The really unhappy man, whose I'M
happiness is his own fault, is the one
who is forever carrying "a chip upon
his shoulder" Perhaps his happi-
ness is his unlappincss, for when he
is not engaged in personal alterca-
ton he is brooding over some fancied
slight and, awaiting Il favorable op-
portunity to give vent to his wrath,
says the San Francisco Post.
The man with the chip on his Shout
der is easily recognized, and his So
ciety by wise people is carefully avoid
ed. He can go nowhere without trou-
ble following in his wake, If he at
tends Il thcater he is either annoyed
by the usher or someone in the audi
cice, or at the man in the box office
for not having sold him Il seat bought
long before he appeared at the Win

Pullman-car porter and the passen-

locomotive is aimed especially ut his
eyes, and he succeeds in stirring up
the spirit of mutny in the hearts of
the travellers. There are some women
similarly constituted. who manage to
be in trouble from the moment their
eyes open in the morning till they
close them in sleep. Those people are
indeed to be pitied. if indeed they are
not cordially hated. This quarrel
some habit of mind can be so fostered
that the petuancy grows to be Il
malignant disease and leads some
times to the insane asylum. Parents
who notice in their children this fret

find Il remedy. They may not agree
to the mcasurc-simply, good,

of the story of the child who was con-

Rochester. Minn.-.John Conyillc,
who has been employed in the dining
room of the State Hospital for many
years. WAS seriously and almost
fatally injured by luna,ir, Il little
before noon Wednesday of last week.
Convillc had left the dining room and
us he passed through Il narrow hall,
an inmate of the hospital by the
name of Nelson sprany upon him.
Nelson had two big carving knives
and grasping the Mortified Conville he
cut him from ear to ear, missing the
Jugular vein by the merest fraction.
The cut extends around the neck in
Il half circle and is a grisly looking
sight. Conville threw UP one arm to
; guard himself and the insane man
slashcd the entire arm, cutting it from
the shoulder to the hand. Face to
face with death in most horrible
form. Conville grasped the knife with
his hand, trying to force the weapon
from his throat, but with laugh the
maniac drew the keen weapon
through and rethrough the tortured
hand. cutting it to the bone. But
here help came and Carl Rommel, a
hospital employee. felled Nelson to the
floor and caught the poor victim in his
arms. The best of medical skill and
most tender nursing have done their
work and today Mr.. Conyille feels
better and is sure of recovery. But
never did Il man have a more narrow
escape. Conville has never had any
trouble with his would-be SLAYER, and
the attack was without cause, except
as an insane man reasons causes. 1t

Rheumatism must be treated
through the blood, and no remedy

as S. S. 8. II attacks the disease in

S. S. S. strengthens and enriches
the thin acid blood, and, as 1t circu-

ness. But no sort OF external treatment can have
any effect whatever upon the disease itself ior

A little duty needed; little honor won:
A little hill surmounted, and little
kindness done;
A little labor daily; little prayer and
praise;
A little act of kindness to gladden. weary
days;
And so the whole creation to its cease
less heaven swings,
For little man is living in world of
little things.
A little hope to cheer us, although it
waiteth still;
A little fire for comfort when winter
nights are chill;
A little dream, God-given, to bless lis on
the way;
A little welcome waiting us at ending of
the day;
A little purpose shining through every
deed we do;
A little bunch of roses to overspread the
rue;
A little peace surprising to which the
spirit clings,
For little man is living in a world of
little things.
A little hope, little love, little toll and
rest;
A little glimpse beyond the vale. little
problem guessed;
A little faith, little doubt. little
blinded trust;
A little hating journey, and little of

A little knowledge merely of little ways

A little dream of heaven awaiting at the
end;
A little struggling upward. although on
broken wings.
For little man is living in world OF
