RICH MEMS KIN.

There is good authority for the
statement that 1t Is difficult for
rich man to enter the kingdom OF
Heaven, Yet 1t is possible for him to
do SO and have his earthly wealth
forgiven him by Providence. 1t is
probably impossible for him to have
his wealth forgiven him by all his
relatives. God gives us our rela-
tiveS, but thank God, we can choose
our friends" Is a modern epigram
sufficiently cynical. There is evidence
enough in the experience of every
very wealthy man to support the the
ory that some OF his relatives were
given" him to chasten his spirit
through trial.
The very successful man with a nu-
merous family circle Is In for some
trying experiences. He is apt to be
looked upon by some of his connection
as sort Of earthly providence. Like
charity, he must suffer long and be
kind. He must stand for perpetual
touches" which the euphemy of the
parties OF the second part dlsgulses
as loans" He must make bad bar
gains with his kith and kin. To IN
sist on getting back his principal is
odious. to remind them that there is
some interest coming to him Is afro

Aksyonof sat up and said, what 90

Makar Semyonitch bent close over
Aksyonof and whispered: Ivan

What forH" asked Aksyonof.
1T was who killed the merchant
and hid the knife among your things

Aksyonof was silent. and did not
know what to say. Makar Semyon-

upon the ground. Ivan Dmitritch,'

Makar Semyonitch did not rise,
but beat his head on the floor. Ivan

When Aksyonof heard him sobbing
he, too, began to weep.
God will forgive you!" said he.
Maybe | am hundred times worse
than you" And at these words his
heart grew light, and the longing
for home left him. He no longer
had any desire to leave the prison
but only hoped for his last hour to
come.
In spite of what Aksyonof said,
Makar Semyonitch confessed his
guilt. But when the order for his
release came Aksyon1f was already
dead.

The Christmas Dinner.

In spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia" means literally bad
cook" 1t will not be fair for many to
lay the blame on the cook if they begin
the Christmas Dinner with little ap-
petite and end it with distress or naiI-
sea. 1t may not be fair for any" to
do that-let us hope so for the sake of
the cook The disease dyspepsia indi-
Gates "bad stomach" that Is a weak
stomach, rather than bad cook, and
for weak stomach there is nothing
else equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t
gives the stomach vigor and tone, cures
dyspepsia, creates appetite, and makes
eating the pleasure 1t should be.

Are You NervOusP

Nervousness and sleeplessness are us
ually due to the fact that the nerves
are not fed on properly nourishing
blood; they are starved nerves. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes pure, rich blood. and thereby
the nerves are properly nourished and
all the organs of the body are run as
smoothly as machinery which runs in
oil. In this way you feel clean, strong
and strenuOus-yOu are toned up and
invigorated, and you are aood for a
whole lot of physical or mental work.
Best of all, the strength and increase i'm
vitality and health are LASTING"
The trouble with most tonics and
medicines which have large booming
sale for short time, is that they are
largely composed of alcohol holding
the drugs in solution. This alcohol
shrinks up the red blood corpuscles,
and in the long run greatly Injuries the
system. One may feel exhilarated and
better for the time being, yet in the
end weakened and with vitality de-
creased. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol. Every
bottle of 1t bears upon its wrapper ''The
Badge of Honesty" in full list of all
its several ingredients For the drug
gist to offer you something he claims Is
'just as good" is to insult your intelli-
gence.

of Eve years, but in the lower class
es-say of st. George's-in-the-Ea East
the average death rate Is twenty
nine years Of age.
So by the mere fact of bein: born
out OF the nobility and gentry the
Londoner Is stripped OF twenty-ssv-
en- years of the life that might have
been his. Oh. of other things, too,
ho Is shorn. His short life is bars
of comfort or delight. Nor can he
take pride in tit IS, at once. too
dirty and too sad; all by that chance
Of birth too far eastward.
Pain and hunger and helotry-
the empty belly and the overburden-
ed back-are his heritage, He and
his woman-a pair OF lean. warped
animals-slink together through the
grayness OF life, under the iron laws.
And In blows and oaths they find
a certain Joy In gin-which Is white
as water and runs hellishly hot
down the throat and smokes In the
brain; find. too, In the pewter pot Of
heavy wet a certain sleep which IL
better than waking; go thus through
life till tho iron law of averages
knocks them on the head at twenty
nine.
