POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Blessings often come disguised
The homely girl needs no chaperone.
It's always the other fellow who
ought to be satisfied with what he
las.
The man who claims he never
breaks his word is really stretching
the truth.
There is plenty of room at the top,
because so many who get there fall
off.
Some people are too apt to confuse
the mark of esteem with the dollar
mark.
Tell the average married man he
doesn't look it and he will feel ter
ribly fattered.
1t seems strange that trouble should
ever be unexpected. There are always
so many people TO predict it.-Pbil.

writes: 1.-Two years sgo our little boy,
Herman, was taken down with scarlet
fever. lie took cold with ii, and in
stead OF the eruptions coming to the
surface they affected his lungs and
stomach. For weeks we watched by
his bedside, hardly expecting him to
live from one hour TO the next.
"Finally he became little better and
was able to sit up. Then he commenced
to cough, and in spite OF everything we
could do he seemed to get worse all the
time. His coughing spells would last
until he was completely exhausted, and
his lungs hurt him great deal. Every
body thought he had consumption.
"One day, while at the drug store, my
husband saw . Peruna almanac and
brought it home. We read in it per-
feet description of his case and we
thought we would try Peruna. We
bought a bottle, quit everything else,
and began giving him Peruna.
''By the time two-thirds Of the bottle
was used the cough had almost gone.
After he had taken two bottles be was
perfectly cured. He has not seen a sick
day since and is q hearty, healthy boy.

He climbed into the tiny road cart,
cracked the whip, and the four ponies
trotted off.
1t was only four miles to Carston-
vile, where the Blakeley hippodrome,
menagerie and circus lay In winter
quarters, but every revolution OF the
little wheels seemed to put Sally-and
happlness-mlles behind.
Ted Stevens was circus clown
not a very good one, but good enough
for the one ring wagon show he trav-
eled with. Last spring he had come
down few weeks before the opening
to rehearse some bits OF comedy, and
he had met Sally Myerly.
She had never seen much Of show
folk, and she was attracted by his
fun MS we'll as by the wholesomeness
OF his manner. In the three weeks
they saw each other Ted had won her
heart. Then the show had gone south
to open. 1t was midsummer before
the slow moving outfit had come back
to Carstonville to show, and that after
noon Ted had done his best because
Sally was watching from the reserved
seats. He had been rather disappolnt-
ed at her lukewarm appreciation, but
he did not realize what the matter
was until he. had come back with the
show to go Mo winter quarters.
lie had taken the meager salary Of
fered to help care for the stock instead
Of playing at the vaudeville theaters
through the winter, and It was with
happy heart that he took the pony
four-in-hand out for exercise and had
driven over to the Myerly farm.
He had received an enthusiastic well
come from ten-year-old Dick, but Sally
had been cold, and at last she con-
lessed that the sight Of him in the
ring had killed her love. Her Ideas
Of romance were CLEANED from cheap
fiction, wherein English lords In dis
guise were more apt to be heroes than
circus clowns. The sight Of Ted in
his motley had killed her Ideals, and
she wanted her freedom.
For the next couple Of weeks he
held to his work, trying In occupation
to find forgetfulness. He had been
rather clever with dogs once, and he
got permission to try his hand at two
Of the ponies. just to occupy his mind,
but in the long nights, when the ST.
lence was broken only by an occasion
aI cry from the stock barn, he had
plenty OF time to think. for sleep came
late to his tired eyes.
The day before Thanksgiving Thom-
as Myerly drew up at the sheds and
climbed down from his seat Ted saw
him and went out TO meet him.
"Sally wants to know II you won't
bring them ponies over" he said.
