Stomach troubles would more
quickly disappear If the idea of treat
ing the cause rather than the effect
would come into practice. A tiny,
inside, hidden nerve, says DR.. shoup,
governs and gives strength to the
stomach. A branch also goes to the
heart, and one to the kindneys. When
these "incide nerves" fail then the
organs must falter. DR.. Shoup's Re
storative is directed specifically to
these failing nerves. Within As
hours after starting the Restorative
treatment patients say they realize a
gain. Sold by the Capital drug store.

Mr.. Olmstead says there was a vigor-
Gus growth of young wood on his
berries and that TO check this he
topped them" AS a result, the
shoots sent out limbs, the limbs sent
out buds and blossoms, and the re-
suit was the limb brought in this

green fruit, ripe fruit. and the empty
calyxes, where the ripe fruit has been

According to a Western Editor.

A girl with one dimple and 400 freckles
is cinch if she possess a sweet dispo-
sition and knowledge of domestic sci
ence. As homely as she may be to the
unthinking world, she becomes glorified
when she dons the bingham apron and
goes into shining kitchen and pulls
from the singing range the well made
bread, the majestic pies and the sub
lime potlicker. In the eyes of her en-
tranced husband she outglitters the
queen of Sheba, and her children rise
up and call her blessed three times a
day and several times between meals.
When the bread is perfectly baked. the
coffee strong and hot, the steak juicy
and fragrant. the hash we'll built and
and the buttercakes light and
smoking as the melting butter is alb
sorbed, the spirit of the Lord descends
upon that household like a dove and
the caverns of the lucky mans soul
echo with GLORY Hallelujah"
1t beats bridge. it lays euchre in the
shade, it makes the job in the shop look
like 80 cents. The girl who can cook
is a divinity She is the delight of a
mans soul and a glory in the sight of
God. And We have such girls in Texas
but the need for a million or more is
pressing .-Houston Post.

The Divorce Evil.

While the Apostolic Delegate was IN
Chicago for the conservation OF Blsnop
Dunno, he was asked to give his opinion
as to the greatest evil in this. country
and its remedies. He said in part:
Il consider the prevalence of divorce
the greatest of this country's evils, anu
/ consider the misuse of wealth by tlle
rich. who promote divorce and otheI
evils, the greatest menace to the Olllteu
States The misuse of wealth. 49, pc,
haps, the root of most OF the countIg
social evils, and the unscrupulous hlet,l-
DDS by which great wealth Is oIteI ~
tanned constitute another great evil
Healthy public opinion, good laws leli l
perance and the practical righteousness
inculcated by the moral teachings OIL
religion are the remedies for divorce Ioi
the misuse of wealth and the other So
cial and industrial evils OF course the
greatest of these remedies is rellsloh.
His Excellency was inclined to take
an optimistic view, however, of all the
vital problems confronting the Amer,
can people. Il believe this wonderful
nation will prove capable OF solving an
its puzzling problems" he said. Though
the divorce court antics of the rlch ana
the near-rich are demoralizlng, IL Is
grand thing to find so very many rlcll
putting immense sums of their money
to philanthropic, charitable, scientlflc
and religious uses. The misuse of great
wealth is generally found among the
rich young people who have no brains.
1t must be said however. that there Is
some improvements even among the
silly rich of the younger generation. This
l attribute to the steady growth of re-
ligious belief and the manifest decline
of irreligion. The Pilot.

Tiuuerary,

In the cemetery for the ecclesiastics
which has been laid out in the grounds
of ST. Mary's of the Rosary, Nenagh, a
very handsome monument has Just been
erected over the grave of the Most Rev.
Daniel Vaughan, a former bishop of
Killaloe. Over a double plinth Of unpol-
ished limestone and six polished squares
of marble, with panels of the same in
tervening, and supporting a polished
entablature, on which rests very fine
sepulchral cross of the same material.
On the polished front of the supporting
square blocks are engraved, in bold re-
lief, Irish crosses at the four corners and
on the middle square, the Book of Pyx.
On the edges of the entablature is an in
scription in Latin, of which this is a
translation: pray for the soul Of Most
Rev. Daniel Vaughan, bishop of Killa-
loe, whose remains lie here, in the hope
Of glorious resurrection. He died July
%, 1859. in the sixty-ninth year of his
age and the eighth of his Episcopacy.

senator cores chicken Yarn.

Senator Gore of Oklahoma is given
credit for this story, told on his recent
visit to a Methodist convention at ST.
Joseph 1t is related by the Rev. MIR.
Williams, pastor of the Baptist church
of Pleasant Hill, who happened to hear
it.
According to Senator Gore, there was
an accomplished hen with brood of
chickens-five roosters and five pullets.
The chicks matured and went their var
ious ways while the mother hen busted
herself with new brood. In course of
time Methodist ministers came into the
vicinity of Chickenville to hold a con-
ference, and as might be suspected, the
five young ROSTERS, fat, acknowledged
and extremely tender, were Toasted
upon by various and sundry preachers
The young pullets, left behind. were
