MADE HIS MEANING CLEAR.
Professors Son Translated Fathers
Speech Into the Vernacular.

A college professor, in company
with his son, was enjoying a walk in
the country, when he met an old
farmer. 1t had been a very wet sea
son, and the professor, thinking to
start the conversation in a way that
would prove interesting to the farmer,
remarked:
There has been a rather abnormal
precipitation Of late"
The farmer seemed somewhat en-
barrassed, and the professors son,
who used a different vernacular,
though he was a student in the college
to which his father was attached, at
tempted to straighten out the matter.
Drawing the farmer to one side, he
said in a superior way:

GIRL WAS DELIRIOUS
With Fearful Eczema-Pain, Heat,
and TingIing Were Excruciating-
Cuticura Acted Like Magic.

"An eruption broke out on my
daughters chest. l took her to a
doctor, and he pronounced it to be
eczema of a very bad form. He treated
her, but the disease spread to her back,
and then the whole of her head was
affected, and all her hair had to be cut
off. The pain she suffered was excru-
ciating, and with that and the heat
and tingling her life was almost IN
bearable. Occasionally she was deliri-
Gus and she did not have a properhour's
sleep for many nights. The second
doctor we tried afforded her just as
little relief as the first. Then l pur-
chased Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Pills, and before the Ointment was
three-quarters finished every trace OF
the disease was gone. 1t really seemed
like magic. Mrs. T. w. Hyde, Brent

MAcHINE-GRoUND PAINT.

Occasionally one hears the hand
mixed" paint of the painter slightingly
spoken of as "unscientific" and mot
thoroughly mixed" The facts are all
on the side of the painter and his hand
prepared paint.
It is the most scientific" paint there
is, because it is made on the spot to
suit the particular purpose for which
it Is to be used. 1t is as scientific as
a good doctors prescription. If the
painter did not mix it thus 1t would
be as unscientific as a patent medi-
cine. Moreover, the paint which a
good painter turns out is made OF
genuine white lead and pure linseed
oil. If he does not mix it himself he
is not sure what is in it, and conso-
quently his client cannot be sure.
AS for not being thoroughly mixed
by machinery, that is simply a mis-
statement. White Lead as made by
National Lead Company is thorough
ly incorporated with Z or s per cent.
of pure Linseed oil in the factory, max
ing a paste. This paste need only be
thinned with additional linseed oil to
make it ready for the brush.
The thorough incorporation of pig
ment and oil has already been accom-
plished before the painter gets it.
To know how to tell pure white lead
is a great advantage to both painter
and HORSEPOWER. National Lead Com
pany will send a tester free to anyone
interested. Address the company at

STUDY NOT A NECESSITY.
End and Aim of Woman's Life, as Un-
derstood by Rosie's Mother.

In one of the Philadelphia public
schools is a little girl pupil whose an
costors and ~coreligionists have ever
held that the principal end and aim OF
the life of a woman is marriage. This
little girl is we'll up in most of her
studies, but she has an inveterate dis
like of geography and it seems impos-
sible to teach the study to her. The
other day her teacher. made impatient
by her seeming unwillingness to learn
her geography lesson, sent to Rosie's
mother a note requesting her to see
that the girl studied her lesson. The
next day showed no improvement,
however, and the teacher asked Rosie
whether she had delivered the note.
Yes, ma'am," was the reply.
And did your mother read the
note, Rosie" said the teacher.
Yes, mann"
What did she say?"
MY mother said that she didn't
know geography, an she got married,
an my aunt didn't know geography,
an she got married, an you know
geography, an you didn't get mar
ried."

LOST $500.
Buying Medicine When Right FOOD
Was Needed.

Money spent for "tonics" and "brac-
ers" to relieve indigestion, while the
poor old stomach is loaded with pas
try and pork, is worse than losing a
pocketbook containing the money.
If the money only is lost it's bad
enough, but with lost health from
wrong eating, it is hard to make the
money back.
A Mich. young lady lost money on
drugs but is thankful she found a
way to get back her health by proper
food. She writes:
81 had been a victim of nervous dys-
pepsia for six years and spent three
hundred dollars for treatment in the
attempt to get well. None of it did
me any good.
Finally l tried Grape-Nuts food,
and the results were such that, If 1t
cost a dollar a package, 1 would not
be without it. My trouble had been
caused by eating rich food such as
pastry and pork.
1.-THE most wonderful thing that
ever happened to me, l am sure, was
the change in my condition after
began to eat Grape-Nuts. l began to
improve at once and the first week
gained four pounds.

An Undesirable Article.

When Mr.. B. went to call upon some
friends the other afternoon, he was on
his way out of town and so had his
travelling bag with him. This he
placed in a corner, and when he rose
to leave he overlooked it. His hostess
happened to notice it before he had
reached the door, and called to her
little daughter:
Marie, run after Mr.. B. and tell
him he has left his grip here!"
The little one gave her mother one
swift glance of surprise, but flew duti'
fully to obey orders.

take your grip with you" Then she

Scythes that swing in the grass and clover,
Something still they say as they pass,
What is the word that, over and over,
Sings the scythe to the flowers and grass
Hush. ah. hush, the scythes are saying,
Hush, and heed not, and fall asleep;
Hush, they say to the grasses swaying;
Hush, they sing to the clover deep.

Hush and heed not, and fall asleep; pass :;
Hush, oh Hush! and the scythes are swing
