could not remedy a bad liver or the
hundred-and- -one i'll effects it pro-

spirits and a bad liver at the same
time. Your liver must be in fine
condition if you would feel buoy

eye, light OF step, vigorous and sue
cessful in your pursuits. You can
put your liver in fine condition by
using Green's August Flower-the

ADVANTAGES OF
ELECTRIC LIGHTS

are so apparent that we are almost
ashamed 10 talk about them. They
stick right out like the nose Of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurelius
might have said, if he had thought
of it, "If man blow not his own
horn, the same it shall not be
blowed. And our Office boy says
he'll be blowed if he can see why
we should hide our light under a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing 10 admit that there is no light
that even approaches the electric
light in quantity of light radiated
all around the room.
The quality of the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give strong, clear, vivid write
light. That is what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
of it.
If our points are not clear to you
il is undoubtedly due to the fact
that yonr light is poor If you

GIVE FATHER A BOUQUET.

I've searched the magazines and papers.
Tor 10, these many days.
But i haven't found a poem that gives
any praise.
I've looked them over carefully I've read
and studied all.
But the sturdy representative Of Adams
early fall
Seems to have escaped the notice of the
poets lucid powers,
And the one who bit the apple first has
gathered all their flowers.
Why no bloom from all the vistas of the
poets floral land
Was ever given father / could never I'M
derstand.
While mother sat beside the fire and
darned the children's socks,
Wasn't father out a-hustlin to gather In
the ''rocks?"
And when Benny had the fever, and
Bessy was so sick,
Who tumbled out for doctor, and brought
him double quick?
I would not rob dear mother.--of one
single bit of praise,
For faithfully she did her duty in child
hoods anxious days,
And all through youth she was a mother
ever kind and true,
But I've got quite a chunk OF praise to
hand to father, too.
How he worked and sweat and grumbled
whistled. sung and smiled.
Toiled until his back was bent for
mother, home and child.
1 am not feeling grouty because mothers
praise is sung.
For l remember her sweet kiss on my
lips when / was young.
But / also recollect great big. burly,
manly form,
Whose heart was where II ought to be,
whose smile was broad and warm.
And think 1t would be just. cen in this
later day.
When we're picking flowers for mother.

BIG DAM BURSTS.
Raging Torrent BUSHES Through VAL
ley in Vicinity of Scottdale,
Pa.-Enormous Damage.

Scottdale, Pa, July 18.-With the
roar of Niagara, the new reservoir OF
the Citizens Water company burst at
midnight Saturday and more than
300, 100000 gallons of water rushed
down the valley, sweeping all before
1t and inundating crops and wrecking
buildings In its path. 1t was discov-
cred about nine o'clock that the dam
was in danger Of breaking. and mes
sengers were hastily sent through the
valley to warn the people OF their
peril. Hundreds of lives were thus
saved, for few hours later the whole
valley was under water The damage
to the machinery and reservoir alone
will amount to at least $4,000 When
the torrent swept down upon the VAL
ley buildings were torn from their
foundations and carried on the crest
of the great wave like so many wash
tubs. Crops valued at thousands OF
dollars were completely wiped out.
Bridges were carried away. In tho
gorge just below the dam huge trees
were torn out by the roots and stones
weighing tons were overturned by the
food The new pump and engine, in
stalled Saturday, below the face OF the
dam to pump the leakage back into
the reservoir, were wrenchd from their
foundations, propelled 20 yards from
their original positions and buried un-
der the mass of wreckage from the
wall.

THE ELEPHANT AS NURSE.
Patient Attendance of Ono of the
Huge Animals on Tiny
Baby I'm India.

A woman In India tells this story
of an elephants skill as a nurse, says
tie Hour GLASS; Thou art hungry
doubtless, big mother" said Remmi,
emerging presently from the hut with
the baby in her arms. "Ishta, beau
tiful elephant, take care of baby; am
going to see to- your dinner" She put
the little restless brown bundle down
on the ground between Ishta's two
feet Then she fetched the earthen-
ware jar of unglazed red clay and
filed 1t with live charcoal, setting it
down to get heated through while she
mixed -four and water into dough.
With the skill of frequent practice she
spread the rough mixture three or four
inches thick all over the outside of the
jar. While the dough was slowly
baked by the heat from the embers in
side, Ishta patient and docile. as was
her wont, cared for the baby. gently
restraining the little truant, who
would have crawled away.
Now and again, when the baby
limbs moved quicker, and achieved
a few PAGES of freedom, Ishta's trunk
would carefully wind round the little
body and lift 1t back to safety between
the huge barriers Of her feet, and the
tip would gently. pet and fondle away
baby's fretfulness and impatience at
control.
