Men are at work remodeling
the old Thistle store, which is be-
ing converted into a steam laun-
dry by its new owners. This
building being changed and mod
ernized removes about the only
old landmark that was lett
standing in Sistersville. 1t was
built, we believe, about 1861,
and at that time was the largest
and most up-to-date store IN the
county. Prior to building 1T
Messrs. Thistle kept store in the
building on the corner OF Water
and Charles streets, where the
Garden cafe is now operated. The
owners, Messrs. A. and S. This
tie, were the then leading mer-
chants of our county, as well as
the richest men in this section OF
the State. They did an immense
business, were kind and charitable
to all, carried a large stock for
those days consisting of about
everything under the sun that
was used in this country. The
building as it has always been
has stood without any changes
whatever being made to it, and
old people who visited our city in
recent years could always recog-
nize this old landmark, but now it
is being changed and remodeled
and modernized. Nobody dream
ed when this building was erect
ed that Sistersville would be the
city it now is. Had any one pre-
dicted the changes which have
been made they would have been
adjudged insane. Still, the peo-
pie in the old days were perhaps
as happy, if not happier, than
they now are. Sistersville was
always a good town.

Tastinx the Sweetest Nectars.

The simple fact Is that but few OF rs
have ever begun to taste the sweetest
nectars which come from the gospel
vineyards. Many years ago, goes Il
German legend, a princess was to BE-
welded to a prince Of the far east. He
sent to her as a wedding gift an iron
egg. The princess, in disgust at such &
present from her lover, thrsE It upon
the ground, when, 10, the shell brokt
and opened, and inclosed therein was a
silver lining. In great amazement tn"
princess picked up the egg and found
In this silver lining a spring. She
touched it. and it opened, and, 10, in
side the silver lining was golden yolk
She touched another spring. and. TO- in
side the golden yolk glittered a beaut'
full ruby. So the reason some OF us
have had so little JOY out Of our gospe!
experience is because we have only
touched the outer edge Of its joys. We
have only seltishlv looked at the gifts
which God has given to us.-Rev. DR.

How Babies Cry When They Are III.

Mothers are often worried as to
what the cries of their infants mean
when they seem to be sick or in pain
and frequently are apt to diagnose
the case wrongfully. As a matter
of fact, when an infant is danger
ously ill it seldom cries, so that
when it begins to cry a great dea!
during a severe illness it is usually
a sign of amendment.
When a child suffers from infam-
nation of the lungs, it means, but
rarely cries. When suffering from
bronchitis, the cry is gruff and rat
Ting. When suffering from Group,
the cry is sharp and fretful. When
hungry, it is fretful and wailing.
