Beautiful Thoughts.

1t is seldom our duty to repeat
true tales we hear against others.
Before we speak, we ought to be
quite sure that silence is failure in
duty.
No one is useless in the world
who Iightens the burden of it for
anyone else.
A fault which humbles us is OF
more use than a good action which
puffs us up with pride.
If you trust in God and your
self, you can surmount every
obstacle. Do not yield to restless
anxiety. One must rot always be
asking what may happen to one i'll
life, but one must advance fear
lessly and bravely
No matter how humble the
abode, If If be sweetened with
kindness and smiles. the heart will
turn longingly towards it; and
home. if It be ever so homely. will
be the dearest spot beneath the
circuit of the sun
Let Us take time to be pleasant.
The small courtesies, which we
often omit because they are small,
VIII some day look larger to rs
than the wealth which we have
coveted, or the fame for which
we have struggled.
There are lives OF weaFiao ne
monotony which a word of kind

DOING THEIR DUTY.
Scores of Brownsville Readers are Learn
ing the Duty of the Kidneys.

To filter the blood is the kidneys
duty.
When they fail to do this the
kidneys are sick.
Backache and many kidney ills
follow:
Urinary trouble, diabetes.
Doan's Kidneys Pills cure them
all.
Brownsville people endorse our
claim.
Sergt. J. w. Strait, retired Z.
S A.. living on Fifteenth ST.,
Brownsville, Texas, says: For
several years past I had trouble
with my kidneys. It took the
orm of excessive and too frequent
passages of the kidney secretions.
I often had to get up four or five
times during the night to urinate
I tried different remedies, but found
no relief from any of them until
got Doan's Kidney Pills from J L.
JPutegnat & Bros drug store.
Before I had taken one box of this
medicine the action of the kidneys
had become normal and regular.
From this experience 1 believe that
Doan Kidney Pills will cure any
body afflicted with kidney trou-
bles.

nefs can relieve. There is suf-
fering which words of sympathy
can make more endurable; and
often even in the midst of wealth
and luxury there are those who
listen and long in vain for some
expression of disinterested kind
ness. Speak to those while they
can hear and be helped by you,
for the day may come when all
our expression of love and ap-
probation may be unheard.
Not until we are ready to throw
our very LIES love into the trou-
blesome little things can we really
be faithful in that which is least
and faithful also in much. Every
day that dawns brings something
to us which can never be done as
well again.
If you wish never to be nervous,
live with reason; have a purpose
in life, and work for it; play joy
ously; strive not for the unat-
tainable; never regret the unalter-
able; sbe not annoyed by trihes;
aim to attain neither great knowl-
ledge or great riches, but unlimited
common sense; be not self centered,
but love the good and thy neigh
Dor as thyself.-M S Magazine
The Terrell Transcript gives a
bit of good advice in the subjoined:
Don't dictate what every one
you come i'll contact with should
do. Don't have one standard
that every one must measure up
to, throwing aside all who do not
measure up to your Individual
requirement. Don't have one
individual code of ethics that every
one must conform to, thinking
that unless they do there can be
no good in them whatever. In
certain sense each individual must
be law unto himself, and there
are certain things that each indivi-
dual must decide for himself, and
the man who tries to have every
one conform to a certain standard
of his own will certainly, sooner
or later, meet with bitterest of dis
and be of all men
most miserable.
Shakespeare gives a safe rule to
cover ones entire relations with
his fellowman. when he says:
To thine ownseli be true,
And it must follow, as The night
the day.
Thou canst not then be false to
any man
1t is far easier tor a rich man to
say that lie enjoys hard work than
It Is for a poor man TO believe II.

NEW

The World OF Roanoke, Va, speaks
as follows OF the opening of a new
Synagogue Of which Rabbi Bonnhein
formerly Of this city Is pastor;
An event OF no little interest last
night was the dedication OF the new
Synagogue on Franklin Road.
Long before the hour set for tn.
d~edlcatory exercises. the main audi
forum was packed, Our Jewish citi-
zens We're out In full force, and many
OF their friends of other denomlna'
tons, who were delighted with the
beauty of the Synagogue and the ex'
ercises.
But for the elaborate altar and ark
and an occasional reference to He
brew, one would never have seen any
difference between the services than
those OF any other church. Nearly all
the hymns and the prayers and the
sermon We're IN English.
The congregation was a brilliant
dressy one, and the scene was one OF
rare attractiyeness. An elaborate
program had been prepared which
was faithfully carried out.

horse came down the home stretch a
quarter of a mile in the lead of it's

on the wrong side of the grand stand
before its jockey could stop him. The
plucky boy turned the horse, rode

lead. winning the race.

over "Selden Wilkes" owned by Ben

Military Guard to Protect Life.
TWO WOMEN SEEK PARDON.
Edwards and Danz Gases Before Har
risburg Board.

HARRISBURG. Pa, June 2s.-The ap-
plications of two women for communication
of their death sentences to life imprson-
ment were heard today by the state board
OF pardons. These women are Mrs. Gather
Inc Danz of Philadelphia and Mrs. Kate
Edwards of Berks county, both of whom
have been convicted of killing their hus-
bands.
This Is the first time that the case of Mrs.
Danz. who is alleged to have poisoned her
husband, has been before the pardon board.
Mrs. Edwards case has been before the
board since May 10, 1902, and she has been
twice refused a communication. This will
be the final meeting of the board until Sep
tember, and 1t is expected both cases will
be disposed of today.
A petition containing $4,000 signatures
asking that Mrs. Edwards sentence be
commuted was presented by Mrs. Anna
Finch of Cleveland, Ohio.
Mrs. DanZ's attorneys are asking that
her sentence be commuted on the ground
that there was no evidence to show that
her husband died from poisoning, and that
the charge against her was improved.
