Better No Food Than No Opera.

The creole would rather do without
a few meals than miss a good opera
with a fine cast, nor does this admira-
bic spirit merely apply to the middle
classes. Many a charming little creole
lady who might point to a Marigny
on her e%scutcheon would not hest
tate If hard pressed to do her own
housework in order to be able to bios
som out at night in her proper place,
radiant and exquisite, in a loge grille at
the opera. 1t matters little in New
Orleans to what unfortunate straits
adversely may have driven a lady,
even though she may do typewriting
for people whom she meets socially,
there are enough noble minded people
of the ancien regime who will help her
to forget the pinch Of poverty and see
thai she receives the greatest consider
alton. This inbred chivalry is one Of
the most marked and endearing traits
OF the southern character, lending to
the south an atmosphere free from our
parasitical fiunkyism over mere mon
ey OF it's insignia.--C. FL. White in Har-

And never could one get before thee,
In the charge or the struggle for life.

The traitors surrounded us then,
You gave their old horses 4 buffet,
While l, did my best on their men.
That grey one, yon struck with your shoulder,
Whose rider felt my saber's thrust,
And the bay one who crossed our path holder
How you rolled horse aud rider in dust.
How steady you stood while their leader
Charged down to avenge his lost friend
Till the work of my navy repeater
Brought his treason and him to All end.
At the thrust Of my spur how yop started
For rebels who harried our band,
And before they could strike, venom hearted d
Three more of them fell by our hand.

And eur race was made swiftly for life,
How quickly you leftthe pursuers,
As trusty in flight as in strife.

His Yankee Thrift.

A Massachusetts, man tells a story Of
old John" Langley. a veteran Worces-
ter horseman, that is Illustrative of
Yankee astuteness.
One day Langley sought his tailor
and in somewhat profane terms de-
manded ID pair OF breeches of the best
stuff in the shop Of the many
samples submitted Old John hit upon a
beautiful silky Eroadcloth. the most
costly piece of goods the tailor. had,
and, although this was. most insult
able for the purpose. Langley insisted
5thatit was just what he wanted, Fur
ssthermaEe. he declared that he desired
it made up wrong side out"
The tailor eApostulated in vain, but
the trousers were made as per speci-
fications ana Delivered.
A day or so thereafter a friend, call
ing on Langley, remarked ON the trou-
t.sers ID uncoslplimentary language.
Langley said he was satisfied. More
fEguyilg resulted in an offer from Old
John to bet $50 that the cloth cost
more per yard than that in his friends
trousers. The bet was taken and the
tailor was TO decide it. He named the
price The friend would not, believe
that the rough goods could be SO cost
~ until lie was shown the shiny silky
side. Then he paid, as other men had
on similar bets. SO that Old John reap
ed quite a harvest on his original idea.

HOMEMADE cATARRH CURE.
Sufferers Should. Make This Up and
Try 1t Anyway.

Any one can mix right at home the
best remedy of its kind known. The
name Cyclone is given to the fol-
lowing prescription, it is supposed, be-
cause of its promptness in driving
from the blood and system every ves-
tige of catarrhal poison, relieving this
foul and dread disease, no matter
where located. To prepare the mix
ture: Get from any good pharmacy
one half-ounce Fluid Extract Dande-
lion, one ounce Compound Kargon and
three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsa-
parilla. Shake well and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime.
This is harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has a peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues of the Kidneys,
assisting them to filter and strain
from the blood and system all ca
tarrha1 poisons, which, If not eradi-
Gated, are absorbed by the mucous
membrane, and an open sore or ca
tarrh is the result.
Prepare some and try it, as it is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh
specialist of national reputation.

Fire Record for Last Year.

The fact that when a servant be-
comes master cruel foe is suddenly
developed is attested by the dreadful
havoc and loss of life occasioned by
fire in the United States within the
IL months covered by summing up
of these losses for 1906. This record
shows that nearly 1000 lives were
lost and more than $500, 000, 900 worth
of property was destroyed by fire dur
ing that period. In no other country
in the world is the fire loss, in bulk
or pro rata, anywhere near our own.
Last year, owing to the devastating
fire that followed the earthquake in
San Francisco, this loss was in great
excess of the average, but the average
for some years past has been $780,
900. 900 a year.

To the modern world a calendar
is merely a harmless necessary re-
minder of weeks and days, to be hung
up on New Years day. and consulted
in dating letters throughout the year.
1t has no such mournful sound as
.'calendarium" had for the ancient
Romans. The original calendar OF
their time was the money lenders ac-
count book, so-called because interest
was due from the debtor on the cal
ends, or first day of each month.
That is why Seneca speaks of s.calen-

Every year the statistician of Chi
cago newspaper adds up all gifts and
requests to charity in this country
for the preceding II months. Only
sums of thousand dollars or more
are counted, and only those gifts that
have been announced in the newspa-
pers. The total for 1906 is hundred
and six million dollars. This is the
highest since 1901, when the total was
a hundred and twenty-three millions
In these big figures, says the Youths
Companion, no reckoning is made of
the humber gifts which those who
are not rich have been privileged to
make.
