snake Hay While the Sun Shines

There is a lesson in the work OF the
thrifty farmer. He knows that the
bright sunshine may last but a day and
he prepares for the showers which arc
so liable to follow. So it should be
with every household. Dysentery, diar-
rhoea and cholera morbus may attack
some member of the home without
warning. Chamberlain's Collie, Choi-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy, which is
the best known medicine for these dis
eases, should always be kept at hand,
as immediate treatment is necessary,
and delay may prove fatal. For sale
by all leading druggists.

Christmas Surely Coming.

Christmas is surely coming. The
clouds show it. The winds all in
dictate it, The numerous white
flakes of snow are its messengers.
Plenty of snow on Christmas.
It is not necessary that we have
SO much snow here, bur snow some
where there must be, else the great
caravans sweeping from the north,
southwark, consigned by Santa
Claus to his friends. associates and
followers, would be no more GER
tain Of reaching their destination
than shipment by railroad. But
with snow in the far north there is
no congestion Of Christmas traffic,
and the great store houses will open
at the right hour as surely as seed
comes to life and the birds begin
housekeeping in the spring. There
is much in happiness as well as IN
the economy of nature, which is
revealed only TO those who believe.
So young people of all ages be-
lieYe from the pOrtents Of the sky,
from winds that stir the blood,
from the flying clouds that Christ
mas is surely coming
The streets show it. Somehow
the people on the street take on a
different look in December from
that worn at other seasons. There
is a cheerfulness that is indepeLd-
ent of purse or script, a cheerful
ness that Infects all men and wo-
men and little children, high and
low, rich and poor There IS a
cheerful seriousness even over the
brow of the puzzled purchaser who
is trying to make one dollar do the
work of two.
