Wife CIR Chiid-Which?

Some time ago George was Dragging
about never having told q lie an re
said he never would. An Irishman,
hearing the assertion, made a wager
with George that he could make him
tell lie in two minutes.
SO Pat began: "Supposng you and
your little child and her friend were
out in boat for row; the boat sud.
denly capsiZed, and you were all
thrown into the water. Now, which
child would you saye?" asked Pat
Well" answered George, under
the circumstances | should save my
own in preference to anyone elses
child"
"Very good" answered Pat Now,
suppose you and your wife AMI child
were out for row, and the boa. again
capsized. Now, which of them would
you save, your wife or your child?'
After thoughtful pause. George an
swered that he would save his wife.
There you are" cried Pat. You
said at first that you would rather
save your child in preference to. any
one else's; but now you say that you
would save your wife, who is some
body else's child"

United Stares VS.. Canada.

Louis Pierre was one of the immi-
grants who came down to settle the
town of Fitzgerald, Ga.
AS he spoke. both pigeon French
hnd broken English he rapidly became
q man of Importance in the conlmuni-
ty, and was successfully elected city
marshal, school director, coroner and
Justice of the peace, and was address
ed by his friends as Judge Pierre.
A dispute arose between the French
and English settlers as to the superb
city of the United States over the
Canadian provinces. They finally
agreed to leave the deci sion to Judge
Pierre, as TIE French felt sure he
would decide in favor of the provinces
and the English were positive that his
love for America would give them the
decision
When the momentous question was
made clear to his honor, he said:
"Yoost tage look at me. Ferst dey

school director and now joostis of the

SOMETHING SHOULD Be DONE
What is Causing the Increase Of
Catarrh in Sauk Centre?

In spite of the best efforts of medical
men, catarrhal troubles are increasiE9
not only in Sauk Centre, but all Over
the country.
Catarrh is germ disease, and t.
cure it germ life in the breathing
organs should be destroyed, and to do
this no other treatment has such
positive and beneficial action as
Hyomei.
When the mucous membrane is
irritated and raw and the tissues weak
ened, 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, render
ing catarrh no longer possible
There is no dangerous stomach
drugging when Hyomei is used: no
tablets or liquid mixtures destroying
digestion.
Breathed through the neat pocket IN
haler that comes with every !. sH1ei
outfit, the healing balsams penetrate
to the most remote air cells oi .ae
throat, nose and lungs, destroying the
catarrhal germs so that quick recovery
follows.
Hanson & Emerson agree to refund
the money to any purchaser of Hyomei
who does not find that it does all that
is claimed for it. The complete outfit
costs but $1.O0.

THE KISS IN JAPAN.
One Western Idea That Is Popular

She was Japanese college student, little and thin, but very graceful in her Paris gown.
 ''The kiss" she said, blushing faint ly, twas unknown in Japan 50 years ago. Now, among the aristocracy, it is becoming quite renowned.
 '.Yet it comes as a great shock at first It is so different, you know, from anything in a Japanese girls ex- Dence. I have known maidens who tainted at first kiss that was per- haps too warmly rendered. Yet these very maids became afterward ardent advocates of the new western en- brace.
 Frankly, like the kiss myself. Its stimulus, and the feeling, as of red satin, when mouth touches mouth with warm, soft shock-yes, frank ly, I like the kiss, and I find it ex- tremely difficult to deny an eager young man so innocent and so delight lightful an embrace.

He is hobbled and checked and goggled, and hitched up sidewise, lengthwise and crosswise until there is more har- ness than horse. You wonder how his driver ever got him into this rig ging, and how he will get him out again without cutting him free with jackknife. A farmer with a gray beard and twinkling eye ob- serves to his neighbor:

They began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others.

He got to be mere skele- ton and was hardly able to walk. 1 sent to the drug store and got cake of Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura Ointment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all we'll He has never had any sores of any kind since, and only for the Cuticura Rem edies my precious child would have died from these terrible sores.

"As you know, the revolu- tionists are at present working very hard to win over the army, and one of the means is to talk freedom di- rectly to the soldiers. For this girls have been found to be more effective than men; the young peasant soldiers are more willing to listen to girls, and are far readier to protect them from arrest. So all over Russia hun dreds and hundreds of girls are now nightly meeting with groups of sol diers, in working mems homes and in barracks.
