The Difference.
BY Rev. F. Povseon.-


Did you ever see a woman
Take a tumble down the stairs,
Land kerplunk right at the bottom,
For a while just sit and stare?
There is not a cross word spoken,
Rising to her feet with care;
She will ask the old, old question
Gracious goodness, How's my hair?"
But there is another picture,
That is not so soft and mild;
It's the picture of her husband,
Sitting there and looking wild.
He has had a tumble, also,
Like his wife he fell down stairs;
But, great goodness, what a difference
No, he's not repeating prayers.
About his hair he has no trouble,
Far his thoughts from feminine;
But he's having lots of trouble
With the last joint of his spine.
And hi thoughts are far from heavenly
tbs language not sublime;
And we wouldn't dare to print it
For a hundred 1856 per line.

SPLENDORS OF THE DURBAR.
The Gorgeous New Spectacle Presented
BY The Barnum and Bailey Show.

BY The Ba rnum and Bailey Show.
Splendors attract the eye of all
mankind quite as much today as
in the ancient times. Man is
vain and admires more his own
handiwork than he does the
choicest creation of nature. The
precious stone is lustreless till
mans cutting and polishing
transforms it into a %glittering
gem. Every time man places his
foot upon the ground he touches
creation more ancient than the
ruins of the most remote antiquity
but a structure of his own erect
ion, if no more than a single
century old, halts him and his
interest is aroused. These things
are true now-they have been SO
for all time.
The earliest record of mans
thoughts and deeds TEEN with
accounts of his displays of riches
and power. Traditional lsplendors
are never those of nature, but of
man. Some are invested with a
glamor antiquity lends. Others
of more modern being have been
infinitely described. With the
aid of tradition and history and
imagination some fairly adequate
idea of ancient splendors may be
formed, and then-all pale into
insigniicance before the glories
of the gorgeous Durbar at Delhi.
This surprising spectacle will
be reproduced in stimulation as a
prelude to the performance given
this year in the Barnum & Bailey
Greatest Show on Earth.
Preparations for this mimic pre-
sentatiOn were begun Immediate
ly after the Durbar took
place in January, 1908. 1t is
scarcely necessary to say anything
about the magnificent manner in
which the superb splendors will
be presented. The wealth and
enterprise of this uniquely great
est establishment in the world is
sufficient to supply all the pond
erous paraphernalia, massive
material and dazzling detail
necessary to make of it the most
sublime spectacle of panoramic

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is III
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efhclent
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken INTO
the human system for the same clean
sing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
N the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, it Whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbS the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
3isinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
'orm or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
ges; they are composed of the finest
powdered Willow charcoal, and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather in the form of large, pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use Of these lozengeS Will
