absorbed in his paper, recently did not
notice a woman standing in a Madison

Keeping Parents in subjectlon.

In the life of the very rich some
parents still seek to resemble those
curfews incarnate in humble life who
keep the girls at home and the boys
out of the barrooms. Middle life and
old age are too hidebound to get ac-
customed to the manners of the new
generation of young men who are old
and worn before they graduate and of
young women who win or lose large
sums at gambling. Children have a
right to expect from their parents do
cile obedience. At first this may be
difficult, but, as Aristotle says, "Vir-
tue is habit" and it can be acquired.

Plenty More!

Russell Sage was much opposed to
drinking. He would often rail with
homely and humorous wisdom against
drink.
Men drink he said one day to
broker, because they are happy, be-
cause they are sad, because they are
too warm, because they are too cold.
Is there any logic in that?
When l see men drinking l think
pf a little boy at the seashore.
This little boy. at play with his
bucket and shovel in the sand, sudd en-
ly ran to the edge of an advancing
wave, and, scooping up handful of
salt water and foam, drank it greed
fly.

nurse. 1T will make you thirsty

The Ideal Family Laxative.

is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old, weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. 1t should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose its~effect altogether. These
properties can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreths Pills, be-
cause it's ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is a laxative on the
market that is SO carefully made.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
a century and are for sale everywhere,
either plain or sugar-coated.

A Rule and an Exception.

According to. the New York Trib-
une, country paper lays down this
rule of etiquette: when a lady and
gentleman are walking in the street,
the lady should walk inside of the
gentleman"
1t seems a little strange that this
simple rule, so long current among
the cannibal tribes of the Andaman
and other islands, should find its way
into a rural journal of more or less
civilization. 1t would appear that the
etiquette editor of the paper in ques-
tion was either too careless or too
hurried to note any exceptions to the
rule. Otherwise he would have ex-
planned that when the gentleman was
thirsty and desired to enter cafe.
the lady would walk on the outside
