Queen Has Auto Craze.

Queen Helena of Italy has taken
the keenest interest in motoring ever
since its earliest days. She and her

and the Queen not only drives, but
also has had lessons in the working

Perfect Rest in Perfect Work.

What is true rest? Not idleness,
but peace of mind. 10 rest from sin.

from care-this is true rest. Above

in perfect work; that surely is the
rest OF blessed spirits, till the final

year ago you promised, If your life
was spared to you, that you would
consecrate it to God" The second
asked, Has God, to whom you made
the promise, dealt with you as you
have dealt with Him." The third
said, Remove It," But the fourth
asked that it might be spared for a

Two Girls, Still in Their Teens,
passed through the room in which
sat. Full of animal life and youthful
gaiety they chatted and joked and
laughed; they were in a whirl of
pleasure. Suddenly one of them
cried, 20! o, my!" Agnes" said
her companion, what troubles your"
but Ellen could only repeat, 80, my!"
At length she said, II promised to
spend one hour with God; 1 must go
to my room instantly Good night,
Agnes. I'll see you tomorrow. The
explanation of Ellen's conduct was.
her mother had been speaking to her
about the beauty of life of holiness,
and she had promised her mother to
spend an hour In prayer and reading
the ninety-flrst Psalm before she re-
tired. The chatting had almost driv-
en- 1t out of her mind.
Then appeared upon the scene a
youth of twenty summers, of noble
mien; his eye glistened with noble
ness; his demeanor was pleasing; he
was picture of genuiness; his car
riage was that of
Webster or Clay or Lincoln.
AS he stood in the midst of the
room he addressed an invisible being:
What shall / do with my life?"
Standing on its threshold, viewing
the wrecks of wasted lives as they
foated by out into the ocean of eter-
nifty, he repeated the question with
great solemnity: what shall I do
with my life9"
Three Faces Instantly Appeared.
First that of an OK, then that of a
lion, last an eagle. The OK made an
swer: "Eat, drink and be merry" but
the young man shuddered at the
thought Of making a god of his appe-
Ute. Live an animal life? Nayi l
was created for something nobler
than glutton; have soul to save.
The lion proposed to make a god of
genius. She offers pedestal of eter-
nal fame; your name shall be asso-
ciated with scientists. philosophers
and philanthropists.
In Her Native Dignity Sat the Eagle.
She looked,at the man, then at the
heaven above. Turning to the man
she said, "The earth is thy lodging
place; the heaven overhead is thy
home; the earth's choicest treasure
cannot I'LL thee. Thou art more than
animal. more than intellect, thou art
qualified for companionship with

Nine Reasons for Taft

William H. Taft, next to President
Roosevelt. is the best fitted man for
President of the United States.
Mr.. Taft has been intimately acquaint-
ed with the great work of the American
government in recent years, and he has
done much of that work
His character is beyond dispute and
his reputation without blelnish
He is in the fullness of those physical
and mental powers which the vast duties
Of the Presidency require,
He has the confidence of the Americans
at home and of the inhabitants of our
island possessions.
e He has been the active conductor of
large operations the Panama Canal
and others-which will continue to re-
quire Presidential supervision.
He is in thorough agreement with
those splendid policies which have
brought national prosperity and whose
abandonment would mean disaster.
He has the spirit and the convictions
of the great Presidents of America-of
such men as Lincoln, Grant, Mckinley
and Roosevelt.
And his election will be the defeat of
Bryan and of Organism.

Of all farm products poultry stands
fifth in value. 1t is estimated that
the cash derived from the sale of poul-
try and eggs amounts to half billion
dollars annually. 1t is believed that
this amount is being rapidly increased
each year, due to the fact that farmers
are beginning to realize the profits
there are in a well cared for flock Of
hens. When all poultrF keepers fully
appreciate how easy it is to increase
the productiveness of their fowls, it
is fair to assume that this branch of
