The RICH BOY
And now behold this sulliing boy,
His costly presents bring no joy;
Harsh tears of anger fill his eye
Though he has all that wealth can buy.
What profits it that he employs
His many gifts to make noise?
His playroom is 50 placed that he
Can cause his folks no agony.
MORAL.
Mere worldly wealth does not possess
The power of giving happiness.
THE POOR BOY.
Observe, my child, this pretty scene,
And note the air of pleasure keen
With which the widows orphan boy
Toots his tin horn, his only toy.
What need of costly gift has he?
The widow has nowhere to flee,
And ample noise. his horn emits
To drive the widow into fits.
MORAL
The philosophic mind can see
The uses of adversely.

4 Merry Round.

There's a merry sound of music in the
raindrops on the shed,
Like the angels was a-peltin' us with
blossoms overhead,
An the mistletoe is hangin near the
holly berries red,
Hands round the frosty winter morning!
Come in from the weather where the fire
cracks an gIows,
An the blue smoke up the chimney in a
windy frolic goes,
An Pleasure like a river with a sunny
ripple flows
Hands round the frosty winter morning
On, life is worth the living, though the
year is gray and cold
The song is sweet in singtn', an the merry
tale is told,
An take of joy fun measure-aH the arms
of you can hold
Hands round the frosty winter morning.

The Grown-Fo1ks' Christmas.


Not by glad Christmas bells alone;
Not by the crowded, warm hearthstone;
Not by the quip. the clasp, the feast
Scarce by the lone star in the east
Nor yet by gift nor deed of grace,
Nor m!st4etoe nor wreathed place,
Nor merry speedings TO and fro,
Nor any circumstance or show
Know We the Christmas day
These are but symbols. hallowed dear
The CHEEKY crowning of the year.
But by the light in children's eyes;
By their blithe shouts and happy sighst
BY secret plottings, fond and deep;
When little heads lie still, in sleep:
BY glowing sympathy that starts
Melting the winter in our hearts;
BY quickened joy and holy pride.
When to the Child all doors swing wide
Know We the Christmas day.

came a factor in Ian Fa'cn
the fight on Father Time. The
speedy son of Joe Patchen won
his spurs when. on September %.
1902, on the same Readville track,
he equaled the best effort of Star
Pointer Star Pointer was the first
PAGER to get under two minutes, and
when he succeeded he beat the 2:011
of Robert j., which record was made
at Terre Haute, Ind, September
IA, 1894. To wipe the name
of Star Pointer off the rec
ord slate altogether Dan Patch has
his work cut out for him. The sheet
shows the quarter mile in :2S standing
to Star Pointers credit, the half in
:57A and the three-Quarters in 1:28A.
The quarter was made at the time OF
the 1894 mile, the half was done Sep
TENDER II, 1898, year later, while the
three-quarter was reeled off September
1, 1898. Dan Patch's fractional times
were, :29A, :5SA and 1:29A.
Horsemen are now figuring on cut
in the trotting record, which stands at
2:O2A to the credit of Cresceus. The
speed shown by G. K. G. Billings mare,
Lou Dillon, in her trials against the
watch this year gives the enthusiasts
hope and the 2:O2A already credited to
the mare looks for her easy to beat
With the cut in the trotting mark the
three leading turf records will have
been lowered this year. The thorough
breds have twice beaten their best

garment. 1t was hard enough to get
the tight fit for the tailor made of six
years back, but that was easy compared
with the problem to-day, when large
hips and plump curves are not at all
the thing. But we need none of us
despair; after seeing few good exam
pies, we may learn something of the
trick ourselves.
Besides the close three-Quarters
coat, one sees knee-lengths and hip
lengths in loose styles. Some of the
former are on the kimona style; some
are what we have grown accus-
toned to call the automobile; others
are built on simple straight lines, closer
fitting than those lately in vogue. For
the wrap for rather common wear, blue
is the color of the hour, dark or bluet
And if touch of white is added, one
will be following the latest fancy.
In the shorter coats we observe white
is prime favCrite, and as most of these
white wraps can be easily cleaned, it is
not such an extravaEant thing to add

rose to geranium red, might we'll be

Pipings will be used very much the
coming season. Pipings of gay silk in
different colors are used on the same
gown; yellow, black and white have
been observed on a gown of dark blue,
but personally we prefer pipings of the
single color. Buttons are employed to
emphasize the color of the trimming
and embroidered buttons are the ca
price of the moment, as we'll as buttons
embroidered in beads. A dark, plain
frock may be embellished and rendered
more modish by addition of some of
these accessories, but the tendency for
over-trimming should be restrained.

come and joined American clubs, ADDING
the prestige of their particular clubs,
and professionals, especially from
'auld Scotia" have come in great num-
oers, but this is the first time an inter-
national flavor has been given golf
matches. The contests are like the
international cricket matches, and
ours of tennis teams, and are the first
international matches in the country,
excepting those with Canadian golf
teams. The members of the team were:
]. l.. Low, G. N. Day, H. G. B. Ellis.
D. F. Ransom, P. w. Leathart, G. H.
Alison, H. w. Beverage, N. F. Hunter.
]. A. T. Bramston, T. M. Hunter and
!. D. Barne. The Englishmen showed
up to advantage in their matches,
showing American patrons of the game
several new points about it.
John L Low, captain OF the team,
las figured most prominently of any
of the men in the British champion
ships and big tournaments He has
won the first scratch medal of the
Royal and Ancient Golf Club, the first
scratch aggregate prize at the Royal and
AhSiCAACs IAC SdlCuIId VASE,
oronze medal in the British amateur
championship in 1897, in which he was
beaten after tie; won a bronze medal
IN 1898, when he lost after tie, and in
1901 he won the silver medal, being
beaten by hole. The captain also has
won thirty scratch prizes at Cambridge,
Blackheath, Perth, Carnoustie and
elsewhere. His putting game is said to
be almost invincible. Mr.. Lows wife
died last year, and he has played little
golf since, so the undertaking of lead
.ng the present team has given his
friends great pleasure. Mr.. Low has
been captain of the Cambridge, Ciren-
cester and Working Golf clubs and is
now captain of the Royal Blackheath
Golf club, the Oldest golfing society in
the world, which dates it's ancestry to
1908. Last year Mr.. Low was chosen to
represent Scotland at Hoylake. but did
not accept. Mr.. Low is the only one OF
the visitors who is not of the younger
school.

COMMODORE NICHOLSON o a3 s.xs
Recommends Pe-ru-na-Other Prominent
Men Testify.

Commodore Somerville Nicholson, OF
the United States Navy, in letter from
1887 r Street, N. W., Washington, DC,
says:
"Your Peruna has been and is
now used by so many or my
friends and acquaintance as q
sure cure for cafarrh that am
convinced of its curative qualities
and I unhesifaingly recommend
It to all persons suffering from
that complaint. Us. Nicholson.
United States Minister to Guatemala

DIR. w. Godfrey Hunter, U. S. Minister
TO Guatemala, ex-member OF Congress
from Kentucky, in a letter from Wash

Slam fully satisfied thatyour Peruna
is an efficacious remedy for catarrh, as
and many of my friends have been bene-
ited by its use."-W. G. Hunter, M. d.
Member of Congress from Virginia
Writes.
Hon. G. r. Brown, Martinville, Va,
ex-member of Congress Fifth District,
50th Congress, writes:
81 cheerfully give my endorsement to
your Peruna as cure for catarrh. Its
beneficial results have been so fully
demonstrated that its use is essential to
all persons suffering from that disease. -
Hon. G. r. Brown.
The day was when men of prominence
hesitated to give their testimonies to
proprietary medicines for publication.
This remains true today of most pro-
prietary medicines. But Peruna has
become so justly famous, its merits are
known to SO many people of high and
low stations, that no one hesitates to
see his name in print recommending
Ptruna.
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna a strong endorsement
Men representing all classes and sta
tions are equally represented.

w ACE, lace, in spite of the
many abominable cheap i'm
@NT itations, the commences Of
I'm EE its use. But the lace we are
HSd to mention can by no means
80 be purchased for farthing,
be worn by every one. We refer to the
beautiful lace scarf, wide and long, very
like the kind worn by our grand
mothers.
The wearing of scarf is an art, and
had better be omitted altogether unless
one learns how to dispose it gracefully,
how to carry it. The difficulty is SINH
lar to the wearing of shawl; this per-
son looks like an old woman the mo-
ment she places a shawl or scarf on her
shoulders: that one looks graceful, cap
tivating. Then who is it, and who is it
not, that can wear shawl and scarf?
Each must find out for herself. but we
should say plump shoulders and full
chest requisite.
The scarf is of lace, of null, of en-
broidered crepe, of soft silk; and happy
she who has one of the really old-an
heirloom. 1t would be well to consult
grandmother and great-aunt, to hunt
in attic and long locked up hair-cloth
trunk, for though the stores are show
ing beautiful ones of modern make, the
old-fashioned ones bear the mark of
gentility, and the creamy ''old" look so
very desirable.
If one is hesitating about what to get
for stock and belt this fall, word in
regard to the shaded ribbons may be of
help. Two yards of six-ineh ribbon for
the neck and just enough for the belt to
make q narrow crushed band; for the
stock, pass the ribbon around twice and
tie in a very wide, butterfiy-ey bow at
the throat. Soft liberty satin is ex-
pensive, and the very thin, soft taffeta.
which is much cheaper, answers the
purpose quite as well.
Ribbons are very much used, and as
ribbon, like lace and iewelry, is prop
erty, the fashion is good, economical
one. Velvet ribbon appears as trim
ming in various ways, and usually is
very becoming and pretty.
