A mans library, in The first place,
should be like the sanctuary Of his
heart, into which he admits only his
best friends. 1t should have room for
only very few and Il carefully chosen
collection of books. These should be
read and rereaG and read again. Like
our dearest friends, they should enter
into the very warp and wool of our
being Their thoughts should become
our thoughts, and their teaching should
be translated into the actions of our
lives. They should not be mere person
alities with whom we have only Il
speaking acquaintance. They should
not be those half strangers to whom
we have to be reintroduced every time
we meet them away from our homes.
They should become integral parts Of
our mental, moral and spiritual being.
We should be 80 sure Of their wisdom
that we can accept them as our guides,
to inspire us to right thinking, right
speaking and right acting. Rare indeed
are such books! When they have been
found they should be treasured as more
precious than gold, but let US not ex-
pect te find many of them-Rev. DR..

The American New Years Abro

The American New Years Abroad.
While New Years day means a great
deal to Americans in their own coun-
try, it can hardly carry with it the
patriotic glow of feeling that the Amer
lean sojourner in all civilized countries
abroad experiences Oh the 1st day Of
January, when he holds it his bounden
duty to make formal call at the house
Of Americas official representative in
the city where he resides. The occa.
sion in London and Paris Is more bril-.
liant than in other foreign cities, for
the reason that there are more of our
countrymen In these two capitals. In
the American colonies abroad you find
all the Americans who have married
foreigners calling at the ambassadors
or consul's to pay their respects-even
those who have forgotten how to talk
United States or have lost their keen
appreciation of the American humor
which their more recently arrived COM
patriots are disseminating through the
drawing rooms.-Washington Post.

SO good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for tho
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, whore roots and
herbs were stepped on the stove,
gradually filling q gross Of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
Vegetable Compound, and these were
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were, to great extent,
self advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
| lily had saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success OF
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia E Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house

tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till She had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pfc
serve a record of every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands-received
careful study, and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, AMI
to-day these records, together with
hundreds Of thousands made since are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent vast collabora
ton of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
| With Lydia E. Pinkham worked he,
daughter in law, the present Mrs
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
!, in all her hard-won knowledge, and
!. for years she assisted her in her vas,
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the

In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham.

their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a Physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a Won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as natlre so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds: so, If we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-

ills and weaknesses Of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,

When to Buy,

There is great deal of energy vast
ed urging people who presumably
know their own business to buy their
Christmas presents early and avoid
the rush. That may be the greatest
scheme that ever went unpatented, but
let us see.
BY purchasing early you not only
take the chance Of having burglars
come i'll and select the best of your
stock for their loved ones, but you also
run the risk Of finding something in
the stores for just half the price that
would serve the purpose just as well.
In addition to that, you save the in
terest on the money that you would
otherwise have tied up in presents, and
a thrifty man will think of that
But, more than all, If you will wait
until the day after you can get your
pick of the Christmas stock for a song,
and not very good song either.
The moral of this. If there is a moral,
is to by your presents just whenever
you please if you happen to have the
money.

DISTANCE LENDS ENCHANTMEN7
by DUNCAN N. SMITH

When genius gets too close to US
We cannot see why men should stand
And touch their hat to that old chap
Or come TO meet him with the band;
When we behold him close at hand
he seems to be of common clay.
NO better than some other man
Who isn't known a block away.
We hear the men around us say,
1T must be dandy to be great;
In fact, to be way UP in G
And have to ship ones thoughts by
freight"
Of course to knock the man we hate,
But why should people make fuss
Or rise and cheer when 1t Is clear
He's built much like the rest of US?
Perhaps we went to school with him
And know he often failed to pass
And couldn't spell big words as well
As several others in the class.
Back somewhere in the uncut grass,
Where spelling was the final test.
When we were small, and can't recall
A time when he spelled do IN the rest.
Yes. genius when too close at hand
IE not as luminous and great
AZ when its ray, some miles away,
Comes to us from another state.
1t seems Il very second rate
And common sort OF genius when
1t lives next door and makes US sore
BY tapping us Tor five, or ten.
