AN ELOQUENT TRIBUTE.

If Jesus had left no3hing but the
parables His name would have been
imperishable in litarature; if He had
bequeathed to posterity nothing but
the simplicity of his speech and the
irresistible logic of His argument, He
would have had permanent place
among the orators of the world; If He
had given the world nothing but the
commandment, "Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thy SELF" enforced as 1t
was by His own examples, this one
gift would have sufficed to out weigh
the wealth of the world; if He had
left no record but the sermon on the
Mount, it alone would have made
His natal day worthy of perpetual
celebration-but all these added to
the matchless majesty of a perfect
life and the inspiring influence OF an
all-pervading love, are turning the
ewes of an ever increasing number te
the path He trod from the manger tt
the cross. William J. Bryan.

THE WOMAN'S EXCHANGE.

Another one of Murphy's concerned
Miss Dorothy Sherrod, who is playing
with him and who is very pretty and
attractive. He said, 81 was walking
along the street one day, in Paris
Kentucky-and Miss Sherrod was with
me. She decided she wanted a gem
uine old Kentucky fruit cake to send
to her mother and we started out to
get one. l said we would look up
bakery, but she said no, that she was
going to ladies' exchange where she
could get something that was good.
She explained that a ladies' exchange
was where the ladies bought their
cakes and pies and other good things
to eat, to be sold. We went on and at
length met native, whom [ asked if
he knew where there was ladies' ex-
change. He looked astonished, and
said, "Golly, you don't want to swap
her off do you?'

ADULTERATED FOOD.

We don't like cake anyway, but
have less love for it now than before
since reading the following from the
New Orleans Item. If we did like
cake, however, we would take partic-
ular pains not to eat any of the stuff
dealt out in New Orleans. The Item
Of recent date calls upon the board of
health of that city to investigate the
cake food along with the other food
that is dished out to the people of the
Crescent City to eat in the following
words:
Our board of health has done well
to examine into the adulteration of
drugs and food, but there is another
wide field for its investigation. A
New York druggist says:
About six years ago, when L
was still in the drug business, l re-
member sellingl a great deal of chrome
yellow to certain baker; | could
never find out juts what he did with
it, but / am more than satisfied that
he used it for coloring cake instead of
eggs. Here is a crime far beyond any
possibilities in the drug line In
stead of getting nourishment you were
slowly getting poisoned by chromate
of lead. There is no doubt that the
practice is carried on today. The
baker has a substitute for butter and
eggs, and all his f1avors are artificial
compounds more or less poisonous.
The yellow color, supposed to be due
to eggs, contained in cakes is always
some kind of paint, mineral In
some instances, vegetable i'll others;
but whatever it is, it should not be
there, for it is harmful, in greater
or less degree
Now let the board of health get
down to business and root out the
frauds in every department of busl-
ness! Let it examine every descrip-
tion of food! If the yellow rolls
that are served to supply the baker
and the restaurant keeper are colored
not with eggs but with chrome yellow
the people should know it and
should be protected.

AT THE HOME OF CAPT. HARDY
A Most Delightful Evening Was
Spent and the Guests Enter
tanned in Royal Manner.

most strikingly beautiful and elegant
home the friends of Capt. and Mrs.
W. H. Hardy were royalty enter
tanned.
The cordial greeting extended by
them was the very essence of their
delight in making their guests vel
come and happy.
The captain himself has never ap
peared more cheerful and happy than
on this occasion, standing in his por-
tico receiving with most pleasing
manner his own guests. The warm
grasp Of his hand, the soft lustre of
his eyes, his majestic form and
knightly manners, his voic posing
the sterling chareen Of the ring of
noble generosity, seemed to conspire
to make sure the most fondly antici-
pated pleasures of the evening.
Mrs. Hardy was no less attentive to
the pleasure and comfort of the guests
The graceful ease with which she re-
ceived, the charmingly interesting
manner in which she entertained, and
her winsome manners made her at
once the delight of the evening. This
venerable and illustrious man, father
of our thriving city, and his queenly
wife enjoy the respect, friendship,
esteem and love of all our people.
With pleasure l propose the first
toast of the evening: Capt. and Mrs.
W. Fl. Hardy. Q. n. L.

WAYS OF WOMAN.

A woman is never so jealous as when she explains that she does not know what jealousy ;s.
 A woman may belong to three chari- table societies and yet scold the cook for feeding the policeman.
 The woman who wears openwOrk stockings and ventilated shirtwaists is not necessarily a fresh air fiend.
 A tailormade dress does not always cover a well lined stomach.
 A man is judged by the company he keeps; a woman by the company she keeps away from.
 When women get into politics they will want to purchase votes for Sl.sS and have trading stamps thrown in.
 The bachelor girl is seldom a good cook. If she were. she would not be a bachelor girl long.
 The woman who Crawls under the bed during a thunder storm is not al- ways the one who is afraid. of a dO- mestic blow.-Pittsburg Leader.

THE YOUNG MEN OF TODAY

The young men of today are finicky too much given to self-analysis, too self -pampering. Their shoes and neck ties cost more each year than did the entire wardrobe of their grandfathers. They feel a sense of degredation in small beginnings and plodding, and they wait for success ready made to come to them. There is nor a young man in the country who would initiate Ben Franklin, and march through the streets munching a loaf of bread while looking for employment. He dares not. indeed, because society has become SO finicky. and he would be arrested as a tramp. The young man of today wants capital. Trusts and combines and cor porations distress him. He cannot be president of bank or judge of a court the first week he is from school. and he feels like the famous Eli Pussley. that he has mo chance e''-Philadelphia Inquirer.
