SHORT CUTS.

The truth generally has a sting in
its tail.
Flattery either makes friends or
breaks them.
No sane man ever forgets those who
owe him money.
You can't dodge the collector when
there's the devil to pay.
The moment you try to be happier
you cease to be happy.
There are times when modesty is
quite as provoking as forwardness.
More men fail to rise through ignor-
ance than fall through conscious
crime.
An old bachelor says but few men
are disappointed in love unless they
marry.
Don't be fooled by the girl with
dreamy eyes. She is generally wide
awake.
The soul of all improvement is the
Improvement of the souI.-Horace
Bushnell.
Those who find revenge sweet to the
taste usually suffer later from moral
indigestion.
Men speak Of women's vanity as
something which is part of every wo-
mans makeup.
1t is the hardest thing in the world
to understand why other people are
not satisfied.
The average man says it's hard to
lose his friends; the good thing says
it's impossible.
Many commanding men are easily
controlled by those who seem to be
other than commanding.
When a woman says she is of little
consequence she does not expect she
will be taken at her word.
Don't marry a girl who thinks she
may learn to love you in time. A lit
tie learning is usually a dangerous
thing.
The woman who thinks she can
manage her husbands affairs never
makes known how she would do it
Philadelphia Bulletin.
When adversely comes around ask
ing where we live, some kind friend
is always ready to point the way, and
even to do the knocking.
This is an illustration of English
as she is spoke: 1 once said to a
girl: will you not marry me?" And
she said: Eyes, l will not marry you"

81 have recommended DIR, Williams
Pink Pills to many people," said Mrs.
Gossett, "because / have seen such good
results, time after time, right i'll my own
family. There are three of us who have
no doubt about their merits. We do not
need to take anybody's word on the sub
ject for u W experience has taught US
how well they deserve praise.
1T was just about ten years ago that
] first read about DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, and bought my first box. was at
that time all II down, weak, nervous
and without ambition. l had been doc
toriug all summer for malaria and
stomach trouble. Everybody thought l
was going into consumption, as my
mother had died of that disease.
Thanks to DIR. Williams Pink Pills,
/ am nov alive and hearty. l began to
improve as % as began to take them,
and when l had taken three boxes 1 was a
well woman Everyone wonders how /
keep so well and am able to care for my
home and six children without help.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills explain it.
"My oldest girls health began to fail
when she was about fourteen. She was
nervous, complained of sharp pains i'll
her head, would get deathly sick and
have to leave the school room to get fresh
air To revive her. ] gave some pills to her.
She took onlyafew boxes, but they cured
her troubles, and caused her to develop
into a perfect picture Of health. Then my
husband took them for rheumatism and
found hat they would cure that too. So
You see we have all got great good from
using them, and that is why we recon-.
mend them TO others"
Mrs. Minnie B. Gossett lives at
Uhrichsville, Tuscarawas Co, Ohio, and
is well known, as she has resided i'll the
same neighborhood for more than thir-
teen years. Her story shows that a
medicine which makes the blood sound
and the nerves strong, overcOmes a vari-
ETY. of diseases and should be found in
every household. DIR. Williams'PinkP Pills
are sold by all druggists everywhere.
They have cured anaemia, and all forms
of weakness, also the most stubborn
cases of dyspepsia and rheumatism.
They are Indispensable for growing girls.
