 "Why, yes" said the wife, "but such a worry. There are repairs and taxes and interest on mortgages and one of the tenants has just moved out owing us whole months rent. Isn't it a shame ?"

HOME FOR THE FRIENDL ESS
ANNUAL MEETING HELD
Address by Rev. D. D. Munro, Reading of Reports and
 Election of Officers.

The annual meeting of the Home for the Friendless was held yesterday af- ternoon at Calvary Baptist church. The meeting was large one, the busi- ness transacted being the reading of regular reports, election of officers, and informal reports from members of the board of managers.
 A very interesting address was given by Rev ID. D. Munro, pastor of Cal vary Baptist church, in which he re- ferred feelingly to the cause for which the women present were working, and on him at any time for whatever ser vice he could do them. Mrs, Char,es p. Graves, the retiring president, spoke of the able support she had received during her term of office, and thanked one and all for their interest. A rising vote of thanks was given Mrs. Graves for her work in behalf of the home.
 The reports Of the treasurer, and of the secretary were read and accepted Officers were named by Mrs. George North, chairman of tne nominating committee, and were elected as fol- lows: President, Mrs. J. Mason Hop pin; first vice-presldent Mrs. Timothy Bishop; second vice-president, Mrs. F. ], Kingshury, jr.; third vioe-president, Mrs John Fl Platt; treasurer, Mrs. J. M Greist; corresponding secretary, Miss S. Klock. The recording secre- tary was not named at this meeting as no one had been decided upon to fill the office. This election will take place al the next meeting.
 The members of the executive board and the board of managers who are at present acting in these offices were re- elected.
 The report of the secretary was as follows:
 To the President and Managers of the
 Home for the Friendless.
 The anniversaries come with quick and stealthy tread; Janus-faced, they turn towards both the past and the flu ture; and thus, when we pause for this annual review of our condition, we be- hold on the one hand, causes for much gratitude; on the other, incentives to redoubled activity. Once more we feel unspeakably thankful for a year of tranquil comfort for the dwellers at the Home; again we have been spared the anxiety and distress of epidemic or contagious disease, or the horror of burning walls and homeless women and children. Again have the ravens brought us, the wherewithal for feed- ing the hungry and sheltering the needy, and again we have been enabled tc bring our expenses within our in come For such blessings, our frs. feeling must be that of rejoicing.
 The perplexities of dealing with so many kinds of need and with various types of humanity are forgotten in tht satisfaction of turning some of the worlds ss sness to gladness,

 It would be pleasant to give this story happy ending, but that isn't the kind it had. This lady's wealth continued to increase as long as she lived. and she never ceased to be un- easy except in those brief intervals when she forgot all about it.-Bohe- l mian

THOSE CRAWFORD BURGLARS.
Got Safely Away With Station Mas.
 tcr's Clothing.

Branford, Dec. 1.-The railroad sta- tions, both here and at Pine Orchard, were broken into during the night, but as nothing of value is left in the sta- tlons, the robbers only succeeded in getting away with little change from the gum and weighing machines, and some clothing belonging to the station master.
 The burglars entered both stations by breaking out a window, then pro- ceeded to ransack all the drawers, safes and any place that might con tain something of value No explo- sives were used as the safes were not locked, a notice to that effect being posted in a prominent place and evil dently being seen by the robbers. Aft CT leaving the Branford station, at which place 8 bicycle was left, the two robbers according to footprints in the snow, proceeded in an easterly direc- tion.

SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE.
What is Causing the Increase Of
Catarrh in Augusta?

In spite of the best efforts Of medical
men, catarrhal troubles are increasing
not only in Augusta, but all over the
country.
Catarrh is a germ disease, and to
cure it germ life in the breathing
organs should be destroyed, and to do
this no other treatment has such posi-
tive and beneficial action as HyOmei.
When the mucous membrane is
irritated and raw and the tissues
weakened, there is an ideal lodging
place for catarrhal germs. Breathe
Hyomei and see how quickly It soothes
the membranes, vitalizes the tissues
and destroys all the disease germs,
rendering catarrh 10 longer possible.
There is no dangerous stomach
dragging when 1iyomci is used; no
tablets or liquid mixtures, Whereby the
digestion j.; often destroyed and in
testinal troubles added to the horrors
Of catarr,l.
Hrcathcd through the neat pocket III
haler that comes With every Iyola i
outfit, the healing balsams penetrate to
the most remote air cells of the throat,
nose and lungs, destroying the
catarrhal germs so that quick recovery
follows.
Bowiitch. Webster & Co., agree to
refund the money to any purchaser of
Hyomci who does not find that it does
all that is claimed for it. The COM
plcte outfit costs but $100.

What Mary Elizabeth was pretending
to say Cor sing) was Scatter sun

when a saucey noscd boy stands in the
doorway and squirts water at you out
of rubber ball. it makes the music
stop short or bicok in two in the
middle.
Something else broke as Mary Eliza
beth jumped and dropped it, and the
boy in the doorway stopped laughing
as he saw the beautiful blue pieces. 1t
was mothers beet and biggest turkey
platter, the one she brought out only
for ThanksgivingS and birthdays ard
ChristmaScs the real old willow pat
tern, with the funny little bridge and
the living birds and the queer litti"
willow shaded pagodas. Mother always
washed this platter herself except
hen she trusted it to Mary Elizabeth.
1t was not Il thing to be trusted to
any but careful persons. Yet there on
the iionr We're the precious cid blue

Dropped it at all if you hadn't come
around and scared me with your old
rubber ball. And you give it here, now.
See if you ever get it again.
A swCop of her long arms gained
possession OF the ball: but, as she came
near. something fell out of her tiny
blue collar ribbon. and Jeff snatched
it. running off triumphantly as ne
head steps coming into the kitchen. So
it was Mary Elizabeth who had to an
swer questions about the broken plat
ter.
Mother was usually kind and patient;
but this was a regular old great grand
mother platter. and Mary Elizabeth
hated the sight of mothers sober face
as she picked up the pieces. The birth
day was al! spoiled. and she choked
good deal as she put up her hand to
her neck to feel the pretty blue enamel
pin that had made her so happy ever
since morning. So much couldn't be
spoiled even by a plaguing boy that
made you jump with his old rubber
balls and break your mothers best old
willow pattern turkey platter. But. oh,
oh, what could have happened to it?
The blue enamel pin wasn't there.
1t took her just about two minutes
to find jeff out by the gateway down
by the end of the shrubbery.
"Who res my blue pin?' she demand

her.
"Whcrc's my rubber BALE" said Jeff,
with both hands in his pockets.
"Tol can have Your old rubber ball"
She cried. tossing it at him.
