But fathers, as well as mothers, should
work more for right than for material
prosperity, for the greater good of our
common country. In thinking of the
living and the dead, while not wishing
for the time to come, still look for
ward to that day when shall meet
those who have gone before, in the next
world with degree of pleasure:
Why do we grieve for the departed sos
Unmindful of the wonders they now know,
is why we grieve for the departed so;
They now are watching from the vaulted sky.
And waiting for each one of us to die,
To welcome us to that eternal shore,
Where love doth reign and fear is known no
more
We wait for loved ones. when the days work s
DER;
And often, we must wait till shadows fall,
Then wonder will the loved one come at all?
Our human thoughts are filled with love and
dread;
Not so with those we numbs IT with the dead,
For they are living now, with knowledge clear,
And knowing all, have nothing more to fear;
And so with loving eyes, they watch, to see
Among earth's living. who the next will be
To end the contract, which at birth was made
With each and ali, to pass deaths silent shade
Deaths portal pass'd;-home, at last in view,
Where love abOunds; loved ones will welcome
you.
This tribute we now pay. reflects our love
For Major Hurst. our faith in God above.

TEMPERANCE NOTES.

Beginning September 18th the tenth
annual convention of the Anti-Saloon
League of America will be held in
Armory Hall, Norfolk. Friday, Sep
tember Goth, the close of series, will be
National Temperance Day, and special
exercises will be held in the auditorium
on the Exposition grounds.
A billion more cigars and several
more million gallons of whiskey and
beer were consumed last year by the
American people than during the pre-
vious year. The annual report of the
Collector of Internal Revenue shows
l34, 600, 600 gallons of liquor to have
been drank the past year.
Mrs. Ida Laing, of Vantage, N. Y,
was seriously injured by the explosion
of a barrel in which she was about to
place a batch of pickles. Her house
was also badly damaged by the explo-
sion. Mrs. Laing took the bung out of
the barrel, and lighting match, pushed
it inside so she could view the interior.
The barrel originally contained whis-
key and the alcohol vapor formed an
explosive mixture with the air and this
was ignited, with the result that the
cask was blown to pieces with a loud
report.
Tazewell Rutledge and his son, Arthur,
aged 21, had been at Crane Creek, w.
Va, and bought jug of liquor before
returning to their home. A dispute
arose over the proprietorship of the Jug
which resulted in fight. The father
drew pocketknife and stabbed his son
in the left groin. The loss of blood
caused the young mans death before
surgical aid could be obtained.
The tragedy was enacted in the pres
ence of the mother and sister of the
young man, who begged the father not
to kill the boy.
There is prescription in use in Eng
land for the cure of drunkenness by
which thousands are said to have been
enabled to recover themselves. The
recipe came into notoriety by the efforts
of Mr.. John Vine Hall, commander of
the Great Eastern steamship. He had
fallen into such habitual drunkenness
that his most earnest efforts to reclaim
himself proved unavailing. At last he
sought the advice of an eminent
physician, which he followed faith
fully for several months, and at the
end of that time he had lost all
desire for liquor, although he had been
for many years led captive by a most
debasing appetite. The recipe, which
he afterwards published, and by which
so many other drunkards have been as
sisted to reform, is as follows: Sui
phate of iron, 20 grains; magnesia, 40
grains; peppermint, IA drains; spirits
of nutmeg, drains. Dose, one table
spoonful twice day.

BACHELORS MUST PAY $IOO TAX.

Absecon, the mainland city, near At
lantic City, N. j., leads the country in
its determination to place a tax of S1OO
year on bachelors, through Assessor
Henry Alexander, who has constituted
himself special committee of one to
impose the penalty.
Frank Hamill, wealthy bachelor.
appeared before the board of assessors
and demanded reasons for the raise of
500 in his tithes for the present year.
WAS that tax put on me because am
bachelor?" queried the angry Hamill.
That's exactly why it was put on
your bill, !" thundered Alexander, who
declared further, that bachelors should
not kick over a paltry sum like that
when they escape the cares and ex-
penses of raising families.
Absecon single men are talking of
banding together to carry protest be-
fore the county and State tax boards.
In the meantime the young women of
Absecon are booming the intrepid as

WATER DRINKING IN SUMMER.

Perspiration is the only thing that
will lower the temperature or keep the
body cool in hot weather.
Don't forget this.
Natures scheme for regulating the
bodily temperature is one of the most
perfect, the most successful that may
be found anywhere. This is accom-
plshed by the perspiratory system.
When the surrounding temperature is
above that of the normal body, the
oily plugs in the pores of the skin, of
which there are millions, soften and al
low moisture to escape, and as it eva
porates the temperature is lowered un-
til the normal is reached, and then the
plugs harden and close the pores again.
Soap and water remove these plugs,
thereby disturbing Natures scheme and
causing trouble to the individual in both
winter and summer.
Psychologists tell us that fully five
pints of water daily is necessary to
enable the human machine to act, with
out allowing for extra flushing, or for
perspiration in hot weather.
Cool water is the stuff. But cool
water does not mean ice cold, nor ice
water. Hot water is in every way
much preferable to ice cold water for
it not only facilitates perspiration, with
its consequent GOODNESS. but stimulates
the tissues of the mouth, fauces and
throat, thereby relieving the sense of
thirst even more promptly and effec-
tually than by drinking cold water or
swallowing ice.
Ice always has a tendency to pro-
duce chill, which is a form of nerve
shock or paralysis, thereby reducing
the bodily power of resistance to the
heat ray, and thus endangering life
still more. Violent exercise consumes
nervous energy very rapidly, thereby
weakening the resistance of the BODY
and rendering it more vulnerable to
the destructive ray. Pittsburg Ga

l find myself upon toilsome way.
And now forest walls and roofs me in,
And seeming exits endwhere they begin
The falling leaves obscure the path IuOd-
Each forward step press the virgin sod.
l know not why nor whence this jOurHeying.
Nor'yet the end of this adventuring.
For aught of law or logic, it were vain
And yet l sense the Sunlight on the plain.
And stumbling on shall emerge at last
And learn the lesson of my groping past.

APPLE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY.
The world is more and more alive to
the value of fruit as essential to health.

The Greeks and Romans had their
troubles no less than we, says the Spat-
ula. Pliny tells us that the bakers
of Rome used to mix with their dough
white earth that was soft to the
touch and sweet to the taste, and so
made bread that had weight and good
appearance but no food value. He
also speaks of wine adulteration, and
says that even the rich could not be
sure that their beverages were pure.
The famous wines of Falerno were
adulterated in the cellars, and wines
from Gaul were artifcially colored by
aloes and other drugs. In Athens wine
adulteration was so common that special
inspectors were appointed to detect and
stop the practice. One Canthara, a
wine merchant, made his mark on the
page of history because of his skill in
giving the fiavors Of old age and ma
turity to new wines, and in this time
the phrase ''atificial as Canthara" was
the common expression for clever
deceit. Throughout Europe, from the
eleventh century onward, food adultera-
ton was very generally practiced by
bakers, brewers, spicemongers and vim
ers. So we see the wine dealer who
mixes alcohol, water, color, sugars and
flavoring essences together and calls it
genuine California wine, is doing no
new thing; that the modern baker who
makes shortweight loaves out of dam
aged grain is but walking in the foot
steps his craft made on the streets of
Rome 1000 years ago; that the druggist
who sells impure chemicals, the spice
grinder who mixes sawdust with his
spices, the miller who grinds cornmeal
with his -four, the brewer who makes
bad beer and the butcher who sells un-
wholesome meat are not modern pests
at eli. Every one of them is out, put
ting into present day practices the
trick that have bothered trade and
cheated the consumer for q thousand
years or more. Selected.
