In Her Own Behalf.


Judge Mullowny next asked Mrs. Nation
what she had to say, and she affirmed, in
stead of being sworn, a witness.
LAS is my wont, was going down to the
mission and. as l usually do l warned the
boys who have cigarettes or those who are
under the influence of liquor are going
into places to get liquor. l was trying to
further the cause of Cod.
why did you tell that man he was rum
mining hell hole?' Judge Mullowny asked.
Because he was running hell hole she
responded.
will you let me read from the decision
of the Supreme Court?' she asked of the
judge. He granted the consent. and she
read several chapters from the Bible about
the curse of drink.
Il convict you of this charge announced
the judge.
Il am used to convictions she replied.
Il am yet to stand before a higher judge"
well, you are doing your work in the
wrong way" Judge Mullowny told her,
land you must learn to respect the rights
of others in this community and do your
work in the right way
Z am simply following the blessed
word" she replied.
THE Bible says that the Lord Preached
in the sgnagogues," responded the judge.
Did you ever hear of the Savior or
Paul going around you are doing?'
God has given me mission. and
am going to fulfill it," Mrs. Nation re-
marked.
Lacked S. of the Required Amount.
When the sentence of $25 fine was an
nounced Deputy Marshal Cash informed
Mrs. Nation that So more was required
from her to secure her release.
Il haven't got it," she answered.

Detectives Statement.

Precinct Detective Vermillion also told
of the arrest, and he was questioned by the
defendant.

warn people Of their wicked ways?" she
asked the detective
ut depends on the way you tell Them
replied the officer.
rs it disorderly conduct to tell the
saloon keeper that he is running a hell
hole?"
1T is disorderly conduct if you tell him
by making speech on the public street
and attracting a big crowd" explained the
detective.
when Theodore Roosevelt makes q
speech he draws a large crowd; is Roose
Welt disorderly?' asked Carrie.
I'VE are not trying Roosevelt" remark
ed the witness.
Don't you think I was giving this man
motherly advice? Don't you think he
ought to be warned?" she continued

Hawthorne in his diary

village, got his mail at tn
postOffice, returned, an.
triumphantly records the fat
that he spoke to no man. I

fellow feeling and good will.
Silence and a stiff, unbendins
reserve are especially selfish
and essentially vulgar. The
generous and polite man has
a pleasant recognition and
cheerful word for all he
meets. He scatters sunbeams
wherever he goes. He paves
the path of others with
smiles. He makes society
seem genial and the world de-
lightful to those who else
would find them cold, selfish
and forlorn. And what he
gives is but a 1.-THE of what
he receives. Be sociable,

wrap your lightest words in
tones that are. sweet and a
spirit that is genial.

He Is an Alert and Elusive Unpic-
tured Beauty.
Whoever has had the privilege Of
lying at full length on some messy
overhanging bank while watching a
large trout in his lair perceives that a
true figure has yet to be drawn OF
him. Even photography can give no
hint of the wavy circles from the
spotted dorsal fin undulating loosely
athwart the broad, back, Of the perpet-
ual tanning of the pectoral fms, of the
capacious gills opening and closing, the
half open round mouth, the luminous
brown eye, the ceaSelesS slow yibra-
ton of the powerful tail, nor can pen
adequately describe the startling sud
denneSs of the dart at some idle fly
touching the surface, the quick return
to the old position and the resumption
Of the poise with head elevated at a
slight angle, pectorals all tremulous
and floating watery circles emanating
from every slight motion Of the body.

Of water, pause, tremble violently all
over and in a moment throw himself
clear of the stream and fall into the
basin above at an elevation of about
three feet more-Arthur P. Silver in

Thomas A. Edison, the great
American inventor, says, Fully
eighty per cent of the illness of
mankind comes from eating impro-
per food or to much food; people
are inclined to over-induldge them
selves. This is where indiges tion
finds it's beginning in nearly every
case. The stomach can do just so
much work and no more. and when
you overload it. or when you eat the
wrong kind of food, the digestive
orgaus cannot possibly do the work
demanded of them. 1t is at such
times that the stomach needs help;
it demands help, and warns you by
headaches. belching, sour stomach,
nausea and indigestion. You
should attend to this at once by
taking something that will actually
do the work for the stomach. Ko-
dol will do this. IG is com bination

Improve the Evening.

1mprOV0 CHe evening.
With the return of the
heightened and pleasant and
cool evenings comes the
query to all, how shall we
best improve them? There
are a thousand pleasant ways
of spending a fall or winter
evening within the reach Of
those who have command of
their own time; and promi-
nent among these is indul-
gence IN literary pursuits.
How few, comparatively. of
the young people of the pre-
sent day, appreciate as they
should the inestimable privi-
leges they enjoy. Surround
ed as are the young in all
cities and most towns, with
all the opportunities neces-
sary for the cultivation of a
literary taste, not one in a
thousand appear to improve
these golden chances. Oc-
casionally, it is true, we meet
with a yonng man or woman
who firmly grasps the idea
that knowledge. is power"
but these. unfortunately, are
the exceptions, not the rule.
Thousands of young men
who have comfortable homes
whose parents are willing
to supply them with books
and papers-instead of avail
ing themselves Of these adj
vantages, spend there long
evenings either in idle loung-
ing around corners, or in
company with frivolous as
sociates, male or female.
Thus, winter after winter
passes away, each one bring
ing them nearer to the age of
manhood, but not fitting
them for the proper discharge
of the duties that a full man
hood requires. They enter
upon the busy stage OF life
with none of those safeguards
which a cultivated intellect
throws around it's possessor.
They start out laboring I'M
der a thousand disadvantages
and confronted by innumer-
able obstacles. which disap-
pear like shadows before a
well-in-formed mind. The
fact that they do not contem-
plate adopting a professional
career does not In any degree
relieve them from the charge
Of being untrue to themselves
their friends and their coun-
try, while thus fritting away
the most precious hours of
their lives in idle Indifference,
and too frequently in the
company of those associates
whom to be with is contami-
nation. How many of them
will resolve in the fall of 1907
|of the twentieth century to
turn over a new leaf" and
improve the long evenings of
the fall and winter?
