A Vain Actor.

Lillian Russell was dining at an At
lantic City hotel. She had run down
in the morning from Philadelphia in
her 70-horsepower car, breaking most
of the records by the way.
During dinner Miss Russell told q
story about a handsome and vain az
tor.
"a letter of his" she said, was
put in another mans box at club
one evening by mistake. The other
man opened the letter, say that it
was very angry note from a tailor
demanding instant payment of Dill
long overdue and in dismay sealed it
up again neatly, and put it in the box
of It's rightful owner.
"Well, the rightful owner entered
the smoking room that night with the
letter in his hand. He ran it through,
glanced round complacently, gave his
mustache a twirl, and murmured;
% Silly little girl"

FURIOUS HuMoR ON CHILD.

Itching, Bleeding Sores Covered
Bodybuilding Helped Her-Cut1-
cura Cures Her in Five Days.
"After my granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured OF the
measles, she was attacked about fort
night later by furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body, es-
pecially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night, using
all the remedies we could think o..
Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm
proyement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been well for long
time. Mrs. f. Ruefenacht, r. F. D.

BEWARE THE MuLLieRuRs.

Cultivate the habit of thinking
cheerful thoughts. 1t is asserted
that thousands of people actually
think themselves tt death every
year by following their minds to
dwell on morbid subjects. The idea
that one has some ineipid disease
of ones system; the thought of finan-
cial ruin; the thought that one is
getting along in life without improv-
ing prospects-any of these or a
thousand similar thoughts may carry
a healthy man to premature grave
A melancholy thought that fixes It,
self upon ones mind needs as much
doctoring as physical disease 1t needs
to be eradicated from the mind or it
will have just the same result as a
neglected disease would have.
Every melancholy thought, every
morbid action and every nagging
worry should be resisted to the ut
most, and the patient should be pro-
tected by cheerful thoughts, of which
there is bountiful store in every
ones possession. Bright companions
are cheaper than drugs and plasters.
The morbid condition of mind pro
duces morbid condition of body, and
if. TIE disease does happen to be in
the system it receives every encour-
agement to develop.
Drive dull care away and whistle
the blue devils off.
