Every Day a Sabbath.

"Quite frequently you hear
some one say "every day will

time is here now. 1t is a singu.
lar and little known fact that
every day of the week is re-
garded by some class of re.
ligionists as a weekly day of
worship, in fact as Sunday.
Among Christian nations, the
first day or our Sunday Is kept
holy. There are sects of Greek
Catholics that observe Monday,
while the Sunnites among the
Persiaus cease work and go to
mosque on Tuesday. Assyrlan
Christians observe Wednesday

Extending from the back porch OF
the frat house to the waters edge is a

III WAS
ROASTED
The Alleged Murdress # Caesar Young
Was not Spared by Assistant
District Attorney Rand

, Der. I did ask Mrs. Smith If they
were renewal tickets for atieles pawned
on June and her answer was n lie
She also lied when she said she could
not remember which of the bracelets
! given her by her mother was pawned
in Stern Is by her husband, J. Morgan
Smith. I knew that if / put Levy in
position he would help me get the
pawn tickets in evidence. In a mo-
ment Of forgetfulness he did the trick.
In moment Of forgetfulness he put
before you, gentlemen, piece Of truth.
"Thon, ne says have concealed ma
terial evidence. That would be a
wrong thing for me to do in a murder
case, when a woman's life is at stake.
wonder II when he was making that
charge Of concealing evidence his
thoughts were wandering along the
Canadian border Of Toronto And i
wonder II, when he was charging unfair
methods, he was thinking Of the arti-
cles which kept j. Morgan Smith and
his wife away from the first trial.
"Since when has Levy the right 10

to me to bring the blush to Mrs.
Young's honest face, TO answer his
questions. Have / tried to drag this
defendant through the mire, and, COW
ering her with stencil, and asked you
TO convict Have l not treated her
with the utmost consideration But
Levy well knew that he had TO win but
one juror to his aid, while must con
vince you all. /"
Mr.. Rand reviewed the evidence in
the case. He declared that II had
been proven by the prosecution that
Young never owned n revolver and that
even II he had one il would have been
physical impossibility for him to
have inflicted upon himself such n
wound as caused his death. He called
the attention Of the jury to the prep
arations made by Young for his Euro
pean trip and told them that alone
proved beyond question that the book
maker had no intention Of taking his
life.
The contention of the defense that
il was Young who opposed breaking
the relations between him and Miss
Patterson he claimed was proven un-
tenablo by the evidence, which he said
showed that Young had kept away from
her during the whole month just pre-.
ceding his death.

peafnees Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear,
There is only one way TO cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inaamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. Whom this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing and when it is en-.
tirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an

And a home in the glorious West.
We boast no FL Dorado
We tell Of no fabulous mines,
And yet-our quartz.veined ledges
Yield wealth in gold sometimes.
We offer no broad prairies
With their fields of wheat and corn,
Shining in golden splendor,
Rustling in breezy morn.
And yet, in every valley
When the early autumn g come
And its haze is on the hill tops
Sounds the threshers steady hum.
And to you, proud southern neighbor,
who boast of your sparkling wine
We grow not the luscious orange,
And the fig, and the lemon are thine.
But, we've gifts of humber nature
Gifts of our northern cline
And we boast Of the big red apple
In the Gland of the Wild Thyme. Z"
And to We who are seeking comfort
Away from the shop and the mart,
We offer ye peace and plenty
And home by natures heart
In a land of scenic wonder,
Where the soul with rapture thrills,-
With sublimity Of mountains.
And the grandeur Of the hills.
We will show you mighty forests
Spread beneath your wondering gaze
We will show you grassy opens
Where the sleek, fat cattle Craze
We will show you deep, cool valleys
Where the silver streamlets wind,
And the cozy white.wallcd farmhouse
Contrasts with the green behind.
