John AinSwOrth'S
Easter Flower
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS

John Ainsworth flung himself do wn
and confessed being tired. He had
tramped all Of IS miles over sharply
pitched hills. through the close clutch
ing tangle Of scrub oak thickets, I'm.
der whispering pines, across brush
grown old pastures and around the
DOGGY shores Of secluded peaceful
little woodland ponds.
Now he was back to his favorite re-
treat on Telegraph hill. It was a little
open spot on the very brow Of the
hill. Back and on two sides AN cak
forest stood guard, and below was a
dense thicket OF saplings, too young
to cut of his view. Away across the
now greening pastures and lower
meadows he could see the spires Of
the village thrust through the great
overhanging elms which hid the
houses. Beyond, the level brown
marshes stretched away to the irregu-
lar line Of sand dunes, the outer line
of defense against the besieging wa
ters of the bay.
Beyong these in turn the horizon be-
came a quiet. hazy blending of the
deep. almost purple blue of the water
with the soft light blue of the April
sky. The sur glinted from the white.
foaming curl of a wave and the tis-
tance made dazzling white the dizzy
sail Of a mackerel fisher.
To John Ainsworth, the scehe was
so familiar that he was wont to call
it his "own.' Yet to-day. as he looked
upon II. II was with the same catch

EVERY ONE ASKS HIM
HOW HE GOT RID OF HIS OBSTINATE
MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM.
Mr.. Jones Tells Of h Way by which He
Treated Himself Successfully
When Doctors Failed.


Six physicians, all Of them good, one Of
them a specialist, had done their best
for Mr.. Jones at different times during
three years. aud still he suffered fear.
fully from the tortures Of rheumatism.
The rheumatism that had been dor.
mant in his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice in February,
1901. From that time on for a period
of more than three years he was a con.
slant sufferer. He tried many kinds OF
treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn't
bulge. When regular doctors failed,
and one remedy after another proved
useless, many said: II should think he
would give it up and save his money"
OF his condition at this time, Mr..
Jones says: my rheumatism started
in nv right thigh, but in time it ap
peared in every muscle of my body. !
lost the use Of my left arm en-.
tirely and nearly lost the use Of my
right one. My feet were badly affected,
especially the bottoms of the heels.
When my right side was affected there
was swelling, but the left side didn't
swell when the disease settled there.
The internal organs didn't seem to be
involved at all. The trouble was all in
the muscles and the nerves."
Among the few who still encouraged
Mr.. Jones to think that n cure might
yet be found was n friend who had req.
son for great confidence in DR.. vii.
liams' Pink Pills, and acting on her
advice he bough.a box of them in Sep.
tember, 1904. Tho story of what fol.
lowed is brief, but nothing could be
more satisfactory.
When ! was on tho third box" says
Mr.. Jones, - could realize a change for
the better. l felt sure then that DR..
Williams Pink Pills were the right
medicine for my case. I kept on with
them for several weeks longer and now
/ am entirely well. and everybody is
asking what / took"
Mr.. William Jones lives at Oxford,
Mich. DR.. Williams Pink Pills effect
wonderful cures in rheumatism, because
they work directly on tbs blood which is
the seat of the disease. They are sold
by every druggist.

Bloker's Easter Efforts at Egg-Color.
ing Cause a Ripple on the
Domestic Waters.

After Bloker had looked through his
bills for the month, he went home with
blood in his eye.
Mrs. Bloker," he began, as soon as
the evening meal was over, this fam
ily's got TO put on the hold-back straps.
1t is Just possible that you may agree
with me when | say that it Is really
difficult for a man to lay up money
when he's required to spend more than
he makes. Judging from precedent,
you intend buying a lot of dye stuffs
to color Easter eggs for the children.
You'll do no such thing. Having had
an economical mother, l know just
how to prepare the eggs. Have tho
rag-bag brought down. give me .
needle and thread and then let me
have kitchen to myself. I'll show the
children some Easter eggs that will
make their eyes stick out
After there was time for Bloker to
awkwardly sew a dozen eggs in calico
bags and give them a good boiling.
there came a yell and a crash from the
kitchen. The family rushed out to find
him dancing about on one foot, while
he was trying to get the other under
the cold water tap in the sink. The
water that scalded him was running
over the floor and the varied colors Of
the family calico were running with
it. There was not a whole egg in sight
and the kitchen was hotter than a eau
Gus in n river precinct. Mrs. BlOker
hustled the children upstairs that they
might not hear what papa" was say
ing. An hour later he was helped to
bed with his injured foot wrapped up
like a case of govt. Next morning he
sought to automatically close the in
cident by ordering a half bushel OF
eggs of all colors, and every possible
combination Of colors. The bigger the
bill the easier he will feel.-Detroit

that had been his when years before
he had first penetrated to that spot.
Presently he stretched himself at
full length on the luxuriant couch Of
sun-warmed moss. The gentle sigh
OF a white pine, the warmth of the
afternoon sun and the woody odor so
peculiar to the spring soothed the
troubled spirit which had been driving

1t was Easter, a rarely perfect
Easter in the very opening of April.
It had given to the church bells that
morning an unwonted joyousness. The
whole world had seemed athrill with
hope and the promise of life and joy.
John had heard it in the clear, sweet.
piercing notes OF the meadow-lark,
and later in the soft phoebe and
throaty little song of a titmouse set
ting up housekeeping.
This day the superabundance of life
and hope but intensified his own
hopelessness. He had plunged into
the woods to do battle with himself,

1t was just a year ago, on Easter
Sunday, that he had asked Beth SOM
