A noient and Modern Advice About
How to Acquire Wealth.

The ancient ssgeS' ''sure road to wealth
was "be temperate In all things, be econom.
ical always" Modern life, with its ''rush
methods" 10 business, requires that "keeF
healthy" be added to the old adage.
Every body knows how to be temperate,
and most people how to be economical, but
few know how to keep perfectly healthy. Over
eating, irregular habits, n eglect, etc., der
ange the stomach, liver and bowels, causing
indigestion, torpid liver, stipation, etc.
Rydale's Tablets are natures best ally when
such conditions exist. The Stomach Tablets
will digest your food, strengthen your d.
gestive orga MS and cure your indigestion.
The Liver Tablets win arouse your liver,
stimulate your bowels and establish reg
ular, healthy habit. Rydale's Tablets In
sure good health. R. W. Vinsou, Rockville

In Memoriam.

In loving remembrance Of Mrs. s K. Ste.
phens, who died five years ago, January
10, 1900.
The parting which, five years ago,
We never can forget,
Nor soothe those pangs Of woe
Deep In our sad hearts yet.
Though this world Is full OF trouble,
Full of sorrow and Of pain,
Yet 70 Us It would be Heaven,
II you were only here again.
Farewell, farewell, our mother dear,
Life ls sad without you here,
Oh may we meet In Heaven above,
Where all Is peace and joy and love.
How sadly we grieve the loss Of our mother,
And many tear we have shed,
Our home Is so gloomy which once was 30
bright,
Since our dear mother Is dead.
Gone but not forgotten.
By her daughter Este.

WASHINGTON LETTER
From ourReg ular Correspondent.

The administration is ma !.
king a heroic effort to do the
right thing in cleaning GU t
graft in the federal depart.
ments and getting as good a
record as it can in regard to
bona fide returns on the sala
ries it lays out. But t b ere
seems to be n fresh trouble
in the way as soon as on e
trouble has been disposed OF.
The latest edict that will
cause the department clerks
at Washington a lot OF trou
ble for months to come is
that which will put back their
pay davs they haye two each
montb) three or four Il y 8
each fortnight. Now it may
be- thought hy the outsider
that a government job il a
private snap. And 1t Is in a
good many respects for the
nun who does not want to
soil his hands and who would
rather work in a fine granite
buildings with electro fans
and ice coolers in the rorri-
defs than to do clerks work
in a plain factory building.
But the edict as to the pay
days is going to hit the hold
ers OF many government Jobs
very hard. 1t takes about
all a gOvrrnment clerk can
make to live in Washington
in q style bsftting his assum
| ed position. There ia a lot oi
cheap social emulation in the
Capital and the most gov
(ernment clerks Would rather
live in n good house in a good
quarter where they can hard
~ afford to pay the rent than
to take more modest quar-
ters and save Il little money
The result is that the most

into the hnhy's bank to get
out money to pay their car

the 15h5sand 3Olh of each
month and their grocers and
landlords ha We been used to
wing their bills settled on
those days. But this has in.
voIved. an anomaly. The di-
vision chiefs who have to Ger

the government checks are
issued, haye been in the hab.

the money in time topay out
promptly on he fifteenth and
thirtieth. But this neeessl-
tnted swearing TO the p a "
rolls for two or three days
work that had not y't beer
done by the clerks. Now the
order comes that the divis
! ion chiefs are not to swear tr
the payrolls till the tale ol
days finished and the clerks
have earned all the salary
that is coming to them. Also
the chiefs are to be able tC
rertify that the clprksin ques
