TOO RICH AND RECKLESS
Butler Gives Reason Why wealthy
Peoples Servants Go the
Wrong Road.

You see, SIR" began the old butler,
according to Everybody's Magazine,
my son took service with Mr.. Lngard.
AS honest and well-meaning q young
man he was as ever lived when he
started, and that's why want to speak
/ out now and tell you gentlefolks that
IL amt altogether q servants fault
when he goes wrong. You don't mean
1t, but you're careless in your talk, and
It's all heard and repeated and set store
by in q way you'd hardly believe. Your
fathers and mothers, gentlemen and
ladies, they were different, and looked
after their servants and their houses
different. But you don't care what We
are like II things run smooth and give
you no trouble. The tradesmen, may
be, bid to the butler and cook for your
custom, and the higher the bills are
the better 1t is for them both, and half
the time you don't take no notice, and
1t gets kind Of easy to pick up things
in little ways. Everybody's too rich
and too reckless and that's the whole
trouble. What do these young men
that's waiting on the table hear talked
about all the time? Why, money, and
how much you can do with II, and how
mean you look without IL. That's not
just what you say, but that's how they
hear Il. They see extravaganza all
round them, and hear it talked all the
time, and they go and do the same. II
you boast Of how much you've made
playing cards and betting on the races,
why they'll think it's a grand thing to
do, and they'll do 1t once too often and
be catched like my poor boy. / amt
defending William, but, IL you will ex-
cuse me, you stole his conscience, sir,
before he stole your silver. You'll get
back your property, but he'll never get
back what he's lost-and II you send
him to prison, he-he'n come out
worse than he went in. He was a good
lad when he went to you, but you do
keep a rather fast house. sir, and it's
hard for an ignorant man to see higher
than his betters. Ifsyou'd give him a
chance-if you'd let him OF"

A Cure for Colds

Here is a cure for colds Of any kind.
It has been tested repeatedly and has
never failed, and as / used to catch
cold, which resulted in q bad attack
of bronchitis, I can speak from expert

Home Companion. In cases Of pneu-
monia it will not fail to cure II taken

about the size of a small marble, satu-
rate It well with alcohol. then drop
on to It six drops of chloroform; cover
It lightly with q thin piece Of cotton
batting, hold to the mouth, and inhale
the fumes, initiating the lungs well. 1t
will open and expand every lung cell
instantly.
