AS a nerve soother for women tired

bath. Take thirty grams Of pure al
cohol and two grams each of essence
of thyme and essence of romarin. Pour
into the warm bath water and mix
thoroughly. After the bath dry the
skin thoroughly, but not too brisk, so
that the sedative effects Of the bath
may be retained. Retire to bed as
soon after the bath as possible, and
you will sleep.

The Tn to Date Screen,

A unique fourfold screen has for its
top section golf pictures painted on
gray panels. The distinctive feature
of the screen is that, instead Of being
dressed in scarlet for Scottish plaids.
in harmony with the vogue on the
links, the players are represented in
the costume of century or two ago,
and they appear very droll. Some Of
these screens have lodges for teacups.
This is a good idea for the dining room
in which space is limited. Others have
paper racks attached in order to utilize
space to advantage.

RESPONSE TO APPEALS.
Money Received by Associated Chair
ties in Aid of the Poor.

The response to recent appeals sent out
by the Associated Charities and the Citi-
zens' Relief Association has been very
prompt and generous. Many who have
sent in their contributions have also writ
ten letters praising the work of these two
societies and commenting upon the improve
ments effected during recent years in these
two organizations.
The amounts thus far secured have not
yet been sufficient to meet the necessary
work of these two societies at the present
time, and the finance committees of both
organizations ask that friends of the two
societies shall not relax their efforts to Sc
cure financial support at present until the
yearly budget of the two associations is
completed.

THE LIFE WENT OUT Of a battered
L hulk on the floor of d common cell
in the city jail Friday morning. With
only a drunken soldier at his side, in
q delirium caused by whisky, Tom
King, veteran, a dereIIct on the sea Of
human existence, passed into the great
beyond. As to now he win be judged
by the great Captain when he answers
10 his M - not for US to say. 1t is
only of his life here and his passing
that we are free to speak.
When the first call for volunteers was
issued by President Abraham Lincoln
a sturdy young man who lived in
Pittsburg, Pa, responded Keen Of
eye, strong OF limb, with courage no
man could question, Tom King
marched away TO war. He was no car
pet knight. His enlistment was for the
war and he was willing to fight to the
last limit of his endurance for his coun-
try And Tom King did fight. Through
all the battles of the Potomac he went
with unfaltering bravery.
court house, at Gaines mill and Mall
vern hill Tom King gave shot for shot
and never showed the white feather.
Later in other BATTLES he fought as
gallantly as any man. Desperately
wounded again and again, as soon as
ne was discharged from the hospital he
went back to the firing line. When
Tom King marched away to the war he
never thought he would die, practical
~ alone aud unattended. on the stone
floor of a prison cell in a fit of whisky
madness. What a lesson there is in the
life Of this man.
King did his part toward winning
many a fight for his country. He
could not overcome his own worst en-
emy-whisky. Whisky whipped Tom
King. II would have been better for
him If he had died on the field of bat
tie. for then ne would have had q hero's
burial, here's tomb. he had no idea
that whisky would whip him. He
thought he could drink just a little
whisky. he thought he could let it
alone when he wanted to. But little by
little. SO insidiously that the man him
self did not realize what was happen

CHRISTMAS.

THIS IS THE STORY of stories:
And there were in the same coun-
try shepherds abiding in the field, keep
ing watch over their flock by night.
And, 10, the angel Of the Lord came
upon them, and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them, and they
were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear
not; for behold, bring you good It'd
ings of great joy, which shall be to all
people.
For unto you is born this day in
the city Of David, a Savior, which is
Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you:
Ye shall find the babe wrapped in
swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the
angel a multitude of the heavenly host,
praising God and saying:
Glory to God in the highest, and on
earth peace, good will toward men,
How many Of as. in the joy of the
Christmas holiday, in the giving and
=,
stop 10 think Of the babe that lay in
the manger in the City Of David nine
teen hundred and four years ago this
morning? Today, throughout all the
world, hundreds of millions of people
are celebrating the festival that has
come to us through nineteen centuries.
Believer and unbelieVef, Gentle and
Jew, join in the celebration because it
Is the greatest day in the calendar. 1t
is the day Of days for people of all be-
hefs and of no beliefs.
The birth OF Christ marked a new
era in the worlds history. 1t marks
more than an era II marks a distinct
Gne of cleavage from the old, brutal
beliefs. 1t substitutes for the doctrine
of eye for eye and tooth for tooth the
doctrine Of forgiveness; for harshness
it offers mercy; for unforgiving. for
giveness; for hatred, love. No human
being can live up to the teachings of
Christ without being better for it,
without being happier, without being
more useful.
Many OF you whose lines are cast IN
humble places may feel aggrieved to-
lay because You have not been able 10
do for your friends and your beloved
Rll you would have liked TO do. If thus
you feel bark back to the child i'm the
manger. the child whose name has lived
through moro than ,,iueteen centuries,
whose fame and works VIII never per-
ism from the earth. If the recollection
that from surroundings so ignoble SO
much Of good has come does not COM
fort you. you are beyond comfort.
We wish you and each of you the
merriest brightest Christmas of your
lives. May the day bring to you your
dearest wish and, in the language OF
Tiny Tim, God bless us every one"

GOOD JuaY LIST.

THE HERALD notes with pleasure
the high character of the citizens
who have been drawn for jury service
during the year 1905 in the Third dis
trict courts. The average is hrst-class.
The list includes many of the city's
most prominent business men. They
viii make first-clsss jurors--if they
consent to serve. And there is no good
reason why they should not consent. 1t
is TO be hoped that the judges Will not
accept any ordinary excuses.
Nevertheless, it is safe 10 say that
out Of every hundred of the more PROM
inent citizens who are to be summoned
as talesmen, from forty to sixty will
find some manner of lodging the serv-
ice. And those sapNe gentlemen viii
sit IN their stores or their Offices and
talk eloquently about the low intelli-
gence of the average jury. about the
frequent miscarriages of justice in the
hands Of jurors and of how they would
rather arbitrate their differences any
day than submit them to jury.
Jury service is one of the duties Of
good citizenship. 1t is just as much
the duty of the citizen to serve OH
iuries when he is called 10 do 50, unless
there are excellent reasons why he
should not. as it is his duty TO vote. If,
instead of avoiding the service by
trumping up excuses. citizens generally
would subject themselves to incon-
venience and possible loss rather than
dodge the work. the character Of our
juries and their verdicts would be
vastly improved
