CHILDISH ABUSE OF PETS.
Good Reason for Teaching the Pre-
cepts Of Kindness,

All kinds of pets love children to
such an extent that even cruel torture
may be inflicted by those children
and the animal still refuse to use
its natural means of defense. or do
more than strive to run away to es-
cape the torment. Many children, in
spite of the Bands of Mercy and HUI
name Societies. are thoughtless. if
not cruel; many are easily led, and
join in the fun (?) of tying tin cans
to the tails of animals, when they see
the other children engaged in this
cruel sport. Therefore, parents
should see that the precepts of kind
ness to animals. taught universally in
school and church. should be carried
out in daily life.
Children should thoroughly under
stand from the first that pets placed
in their care. must receive food and
drink at certain hours each day; that
the food must be properly prepared,
and that the water for drinking of
the right temperature.-Wom

Southern Moss Utilized.

The sweeping gray moss of the
southern forests is linked with com,
merce. 1t fills mattresses for beds
and cushions for buggies. 1t is use
full for packing and it is gathered as
any other crop is gathered by peo
pie who are paid by the day. Moss
is ginned as cotton is ginned; the
outer cuticle Of the fiber is removed
and leaves 1t much like horse hair
1t is then good for anything that
needs stufhng. In Louisiana, instead
Of merely detail of swamp scenery

GLOVES IN EARLY A
They Were often Made to R-epreaent
tho MIN who Wore Them.

They Were Often Made to Represent
tho mnn Who Wore Them.
In the early days everything was not
regulated for the people, as 1t is now,
by the government and the law courts.
Europe was still young then, and peo-
pie had rough and ready means Of deal
Ing with one another, OF buying and
selling or giving goods and property
and settling disputes. A glove, as 1t
was very close indeed to q mans hand,
came in course OF time to be looked
upon as taking the place of the hand it
self, and sometimes took the mans
place and was made to represent him.
For example, to open n fair 1t was
necessary then to have the consent and
protection of the great lord In whose
country it was going to be held. Those
who wished to open the fair would
come to the nobleman and petition him
to be present. He might be very busy,
or bored ut the idea OF having to go, yet
he would know that 1t must be opened
or his people would be discontinued.
So he would say to the leaders of the
people: "No, my trusty fellows, 1 can't
the fair in person, but / will send
NY S'oNc W 10 III. 1Ou all Know my
glove. Nobody has n like 1t in the
country. 1t is the one my lady mother
embroidered for me in colored silks and
silver wire, II 1t has q deep violet
fringe. You can hang 1t above the en-
trance of your fair grounds as a sign
that you are acting with my permits
sion. If any M disputes your right or
touches his masters glove 1 will attend
to him; that's ALP So the glove would
travel in state to open tho fair.-St.

CURES WITHOUT STOMACH DOSING
HyOmei Cures Catarrh by Simple
Breathing. The Laurens Drug 60.
Refund IfIt Fails to Cure.

A long stride toward solving the
mystery Of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In fact,
the percentage of cures by this treat
ment proves it equal to the final tests.
The folly of taking medicine into the
stomach to cure catarrh of the nose,
throat and lungs, has been realized by
physicians, but not until Hyomei was
known, had they a practical method
that would obviate stomach drugginr.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists of a neat pocket in
haler that can be used anywhere with
out attracting attention, a medicine
d,oppcr aud q bottle Of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the in
ha,er. every particle Of air that enters
the nose, throat and lungs. is charged
with a healing balsam lhal soothes
aud sllays al irritation, kills the ca
tarrhal germs and enriches the blood
with add tior al or me.
The Laurens ID ug Co. have so much
faith in the power Of Hyomei to cure
catarrh that they are selling it under
their personal guarantee to refund the
money if it does not give positive re-
lief.

In u form of experience which is al

we see that the semisomnolent self,
possesses n faculty not always given
to the waking self. Compared with my
OWL waking self, for instance, my half
asleep self is almost n personality of
genius. He can create visions that the
waking self can remember but cannot
originate and cannot trace to any mem
Cry OF waking impressions. These APP

existence of almost wholly submerged
potentialities in Il mind so everyday,
