Hard Task to Reform Man.

King Solomon tells US that a good
Wife will do her hus band good and
not evil all the days Of her life. But
none the less the fact remains that
the reformation of an evil man by
even the best of wives is to be classed
among the most difficult of human un-
dertakings, task which John How
ard declared impossible saving by
the amazing grace OF God-Helen
Oldfeld In Chicago Tribune.

Paul Mohr, the worlds champion
trolley car rider Mir. Mohr rode In
August by trolley from Philadelphia
TO Maine. a distance OF 1000 miles
is a man OF original and advanced
views.
"Mohr," a friend of the young man
said, ",eeps in touch with all modern
and up-to-date things. He can tell
you how they harnessed Niagara, how
A. G. Bell makes his tetrahedral kite
aeropIanes, how the Pasteur institute
prolongs life by means of sour milk
and so forth and SO forth. The other
night a group Of us men were talking
about a valuable Dog that had been
lost. The owner had advertised. but
nothing had come of the matter.
Mohr said, laughing: Harry, you
'dnt advertise ih TIE right way. You
didn't make your card timely and up
to date
How would you have done t.?
Harry asked.
well, now, let me see, Mohr said.
The papers told us the other day that
a lot or yellow fever mosquitoes had
been brought 10 town for experimental
purposes. didn't they? I'd have cou-
pied that interesting fact 10 my ad.
I'd have made II read like this: Lost
From chemical laborat Dry small
Boston bull with collar marked Bob.
The animal has been much expert
men:ed on for scientific purposes with
the stegomyia fasciata, or yellow fever
mosquito. and may involuntarily be-
come source OF danger to the com
munity.'
THAT notice would have brought
back the dog Mohr said, laughingly.'
