The God of Love.

It is not gold of ripped hair.
Like cornfields swept by winds at play;
1t Is not cheeks as fresh and fair
AS apple bloom at dawn of day.
1t is not these that sing to Love,
And bid him wake so sure, so soon;
That set the skies alight above.
And set him crying for the moon.
1t is not heart-gold, pure and bright
AS virgin gold in hidden seams;
1t is not soul as clear and light
AS sunrise in a poets dreams.
1t is not these that give Love food
And drink-the magic wine and bread
That set, amid his solitude,
The enchanted garland on his head.
Love only knows one god sublime,
The trinity in unity;
And the gods names are Space and Time
And-Opportunity

All Guns to Be Resiahted.

Plans are being drawn in the bureau
Of ordnance at Washington for the re-
sighting of all the guns in the United
States navy. The cost Of this work
will be tremendous, but its necessity
was readily realized when called to
the attention of the president and the
orders have already been issued. An
improved variety of sight will be used
and the work will be pushed with all
the rapidity practicable. For the
rapid--fire guns telescope sight will
be used, of kind that will permit of
continuous aim. Nearly all of the
guns are in need of resighting.

Philip Hichborn, Rear Admiral United
States Navy, writes from Washington,
d. c., as follows:
"Affer the use of Peruna for a shorl
period, I can now chcerfuiiy recon-
mend your valuable remedy to any one
who Is In need of an invigOrating
tonic. "-PhiIip HichbOrn.
No remedy ever yet devised has re-
ceived such unstinted eulogy from so
many renowned statesmen and military
men as Peruna.
Our army and navy are the natural
protection of our country. Peruna is
the natural protection of the army and
navy in the vicissitudes of climate and
exposure.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad,
vice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,

To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and
who is reasonably satisfied with the
old. we would suggest that trial Of
Defiance Cold Water Starch be made
at once. Not alone because it Is guar
anteed by the manufacturers to be SUI
perior to any other brand. but because
each 10c package contains 16 ozs.,
while all the other kinds contain but
~ ozs. 1t is safe to say that the lady
who once uses Defiance Starch will use
no other. Quality and quantity must

A GREAT INSTITUTION.

It is unusual that single institution in
city of 5000 people will overshadow In i'm
portauce every other interest, but such is
the case with tho American School OF
Osteopathy, and A. L. Still 1nirmary at
Kirksville, Mo.
A stranger in Kirksville is Immediately
impressed with the idea that the town Is
sustained by this institution, in fact,
Kirksville has been made what it is to-day
by DR.. Still and his famous School and
Infirmary. 1t is the largest patronlzed un-
endowed institution of its kind in the
United States.
DR.. Stills school enrolls over 700 students
yearly and each student is required to at-
tend four terms of five months each before
completing the course of study. There are
over 1000 graduates and they are prac-
ticing in every state and territory OF the
Union. About two-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
in medical colleges except drugs" ana
osteopathy is substituted for that. 30
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
At the Infirmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form Of disease are constantly under treat
ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by the science of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world as q safe and
rational method of cure. Several years ago
free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department of the school
and this is still in operation. Hundreds OF
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free Of charge.

The Free Rural mail system does
not seem to meet with much favor over
In Salem. Says the Salem Sunbeam:
"f'The carriers of rural mails are apt to
have some trouble in the not distant
future. The establishment of these
free delivery routes was undoubtedly
one of the greatest blessings ever con-
ferred on our farmers, and those resid-
ing far from post Offices, but they have
not been unalloyed blessings to some
tctn9r people. For instance, country
merchants soon found that their bust
ness was being ruined by the big de-
partment stores of the large cities
which secured lists of those to whom
mail was supplied by the rural routes
and Immediately entered into CORE
spondence with those people and were
soon supplying their wants through
mail order departments, to the serious
loss of the country merchants. Now
the department stores are suffering,
and have joined with the country mer-
chants in denouncing the rural carriers
for adding express service to their duty
of carrying the mails. One western
merchant has written to the Post Of
fee department protesting against the
activity of one carrier, who has three
wagons following his mail wagon,
these wagons carrying all sorts of
merchandise likely to be needed by the
people along his route. This carrier
has built up an immense business, and
naturally gives it his closest attention.
The complaining merchant declares
LnSI ne gl7esS 1t such attention that he
sometimes starts off with his three
wagon caravan and is so intent on that
branch of his business that he forgets
to take with him the mail for the people
along his route.
