especial mention. Arthur Wright

"Our little girl, one year and a half

took her to three doctors but by this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. One morning we dis
covered little yellow pimple on one
of her eyes. Doctor No. 3 said that we
had better take her to some eye spe-
cialist, since it was an ulcer. So we
went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and
he said the eyesight was gone. We
were nearly discouraged, but thought
we would try the Cuticura Treatment,
SO purchased set of Cuticura Rem

days our daughter, who had been sick
about eight months, showed great i'm

not restore the eyesight, but If we had

The Goat Comes First.

Switzerland is the only country in
the world where the goat is placed
ahead of all other animals, and even
OF human beings. If boy plaques
a goat he can be fined and sent to jail.
II person meets goat on path,
and drives him aside he can be arrest

If goat enters the yard of person
not his owner and is hit with club or
stone the person guilty of the offence
must pay 80 cents. If a railroad train
sees a goat on the track the train
must halt until the animal can be
coaxed to remove himself. There's
many boy in America who wishes he
were a goat in Switzerland.

TRADITION OF HE ROSE.
Pr,tty Legend Current Among North
American Indians.

The North American Indians OF the
western coast have a tradition that
roses were created without thorns.
So tall and fair they grew that all
creatures were attracted by their
beauty and grace. Animals that
browse upon grass and green heritage
soon discover the tender sweetness OF
the roses abundant foliage. and then
every rose tree holding its flowers
destruction to itself.
Every part OF the earth had been
given its glory of roses, but in every
place there were animals which
sought the bushes to devour them,
and and tribes of roses were in dan
ger of becoming extinct. In their ex-
tremity they held a council. for in
that faraway morning of the world
plants as well as animals had power
to speak. To the council all the
roses came, and each had tale to tell
of suffering and disaster. At length
It was decided to send for help to the
goldman of the tribes-the Hiawatha
from among those who were manned
and torn and had suffered most. 9th
ers also were sent who were tall and
fair and graceful. Wisely this coun-
ell discerned that should justice be
denied the tribes, beauty might pre-
vail In their cause.
The conference was long and grave.
At its close an armory Of thorns was
given to every rose, and thus were the
tribes of roses delivered from the en-.
emies.-Circle Magazine.

Courtesy at Home
We are all creatures Of habit,
men and women alike, and the habits
and surroundings of daily life have a
powerful influence on the character of
both. The root of all bad manners Is
selfishness; when self ever is first, fore
most consideration for others always
lags much in the rear, and drops so
far behind in time that 1t disappears
altogether. "One cannot keep up the
ceremony and etiquette of society
when at home" True, for between
friends these can be laid aside. They
merely are the rivets that keep So
ciety together, but not courtesy and
consideration. The latter ought to
be so much the habit with each Of us
that 1t will become our second nature,
and therefore can be no more laid
aside than can an arm or a leg.
