1t is appalling to read the cold figures telling of the ravages Of CONSUMPTION

there have been 100000 deaths from the much-dreadd yellow viewer in the United
States, but last year. there were1 10000 deaths from consumption. I te lastf four
years more than three times the number of personsd died from he dsease in the

the whole period of the great Civil War. Mankind has looked Dol the ravages

Camel Better Than Horse.

Costing about as much as a good
horse, the camel's speed is equally
great, his life considerably longer and
his ability to carry a load equal TO
that of three horses, while the fact
that he can travel for a week. or, if
necessary, nearly two weeks without
water renders him invaluable to those
great sandy stretches. He can also
go for several days with little or no
food. subsisting meantime upon the

The hardest work in the world is try
ing to be agreeable when you don't feel
like It..
There are lots Of ways to get rich,
but the advice of a fortune teller is not
on the list.
The nearer a young person can imi-
tate the steadiness of an older person,
the better II will be for him.
You will be compelled, finally, to
learn that your opinions do not amount
to much. The sooner you learn this
important fact the better. ".
There are two times when people
doubt that a man Is telling the truth:
One is when he says he is working too
hard, and the other is when he says he
has no time to spare.
You often hear OF the man who Is
good around the house; who takes
care of the children at night, and can
wen cook a little when the occasion
requires. We may do the good soul
an injustice, but a man of this kind
is seldom great at anything else. A
man can't attend to his own business,
and his wife's too. ....
Men are something like school girls.
If a school girl gets a letter from away
off, she will carry 1t in her books to
school. and use it as a book mark. II
