An oId- ra.hlon.a woman.

No clever. brilliant thinker, she,
With college record and degree;
She has not known the paths of fame.
The world has heard her Nance;
She walks in Old, long.trodden ways.
The valleys Of the yesterdays.
Home is her Kingdom, love is her dover;
She seeds no other wand of power
To make home sweet, bring heaven near.
To win a smile and wipe a tear.
And do her duty day by iay
In her own quiet place and way.
Around her childish hearts are twined,
AS round some reverend saint enshrined,
And following hers the childish feet
Are led to ideals true and sweet,
And find all purity and good
In her divinest motherhood.
She keeps her faith unshadowed still
God rules the world in good md i'll;
Men in her creed are brave md true,
And women pure as pearls OF dew,
And life Tor her is high and grand,
by work and glad endeavor epanned.
This sad old earrh'> a brighter place
MI for the Sunshine Of her face;
Her very smile Il blessing throwe,
And hearts are happier where she goes,
\ gentle, clear eyed messenger,
To whisper love-thank God for her!

YOU WILL NOT

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty everybody
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty of them, no matter what
line of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success of
any kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief-as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
plugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements of the
merits of medicines. The effec-
tive modern remedy known as
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as flour, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of man
ufacturers with>a worldwide re-
putation. We could not afford to
exaggerate its qualities or misre-
present it in the least; and it is
not necessary. It is palatable as
honey and contains the nutritive
and curative properties of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted by us
from fresh cod livers, combined
with the Compound Syrup of
Hypophosphites and the Extracts
of Malt and Wild Cherry; and
how valuable such a blending of
these important medicinal agents
must be is plain to everybody.
It is beyond price in Weakness
and lack of Nervous Tone, Ane.
mia, Scrofula, La Grippe, Lung
Troubles and Impurities of the
Blood. Science can furnish no.
thing better-perhaps nothing so
good. DR.. W. III. Dale, of Cana
da, says: "I have used it in my
practice and take pleasure in re-
commencing it as valuable ton
ic and reconstructive." It is a
remedy that can afford to appeal
to it's record and represents the
science and knowledge of bright
and aggressive medical investiga-
ton. Effective from the first
dose. Sold by all chemists here.

COL. Wallis IS HAPPY
And His Host of Friends Are Happy
With Him Over the Arrival of
Bouncing Boy at His Home.

Col Thomas I. Wallis has u host Of
friends. He is ever a happy, iovial cit
zen, but he is unusually happy at this
time and his friends are giving him the
glad hand as not before for some time.
The Colonel is quite modest on the sub
ject for all this outburst of happiness
and fellowship, but the Telegram takes
it upon itself TO tell the public the why
and wherefore. He and his estimable
wife are the parents of a bouncing lit
tie fellow: They have named the boy
Samuel Rossiter, after his grandfather
on his mothers side, and the Telegram
bcspcaks for him not only the popularity
of his father and mother, but in addi-
tion that of the one for whom he was
namcd--a gentleman who viii long be
remembered in Clarksburg as one who
had never an enemy and who was a
friend of every one he knew. Colonel
Wallis and wife have the hearty congrat-
ulations of all their many friends, and
especially of the people of clarksburg,
among whom they are so universally
liked.

THE Rain BROUGHT 'EM IN
Jupiter Pluvius Causes a Big Lineup of
Plain Drunks at Tuesday Mornings
Session of Police Court.

When good old dismal rainy day fails
to bring in large motley collection Of
trunks at police headquarters, something,
is radically wrong. When Mayor Grille
fguratiyely donned the municipal ermine
Tuesday morning and the contents of the
Cage of Horrors were promiscuously scdt.
tered along in front of his judicial bench,
nothing was found wanting in the num-
Der of the prisoners, their extremely en-
barassed financial condition or in the reg.
ulation abjeot and terror stricken emo
tional expression OF their features. In
fact, everything was regular and to the
usual and expected order of things, for
session of police court after a good old
sloppy day.
i. L. Hill was given three days. SEN
tcncc for being drunk. Steve Smith drew
the same amount. D. Rosgal was given
three days in defu,tlt of the payment of
50 fine. The trimmings and three was
handed out to John Hayararea, and as he
didn't have tile necessary collateral, he
was given three days meal ticket. Clel
S;teyers had evidently been up before His
Honor before,'ifor he Nps given Ave days.
+. c. Moore, the travelling man who was
arrested at THE passenger station for be-
ing drunk, was sent to Jail for three days
rs he couldn't pay his fine. Harry Nc
Dougal was sent up for three days.
The mayor didn't get penny out of
the whole bundh. lie collected the put
up fines of ALBERT shim, Tom Jill and
Rnd Flaherty, amounting TO $780, S4GO
and S4.GO, and turned them over into the
proper channels. The men were arrested
for drunkenness and put up the money
for their appearance at the morning ses-
sion of court. They didn't show up at
the required bime. After the fines were
turned over properly, court adjourned in
due form until the evening session.

not been for Manager lNrland's enter
