WANTED ONLY MONEYS WORTH.
Example Of the Workings Of the "NO.~
England Conscience"

A woman who has spent many anna
mers at Haines' Falls in the Catskills
tells the following story
"A mountain wagon full OF summer
excurslonists stopped al the hotel one
morning. They wanted to see the falls
turned on. In order to assure a good
flow of water there is sort OF lock
built above the falls The lock Is al
ways kept closed except VIXEN some
body makes application to see the
falls; then, on payment OF quarter.
the gates are thrown open and q nne
Cow Of water pours forth. The old man
who had charge Of the falls went out
and opened the gates the visitors
were delighted, paid their quarter and
drove away About half an hour later
another wagonload drove up to the
hotel and asked to see the falls. Again
the old man went out and opened the
gates; but owing to the previous drain
on the water supply the result was far
from satisfactory. and the spectators
WtiC uOl culuuSldStlN. ne Ola man
noticed the dissatisfaction Of the visit
ors and was, perhaps, somewhat coR-
science stricken, for, when he was Of
fered = quarter TO pay for opening the
gates, he hesitated a msnent, then
said:
mo, 1t want worth that Auch. I
think there was Just bsut II cents
worth that time"

MISTAKES OF MENTAL WORKERS.
Few Endeavor TO Keep Themselves In
Proper Physical Trim.

Neglect Of physical development Is
responsible for many Of the ills ia
which the vast army Of men werk-
ers is heir Men and women who labor
In Offices are even forgetting how 10
use their legs, SO convenient 10 It to
resort to street cars, though the dis
lance to be covered May be but few
blocks
The best mental wSrk Is perfsrned
by those who keep in good physical
trim Generally, the incentive for this
is lacking. 1t is perfectly possible for
every mental worker to take daily,
systematic exercise, though 1t may be
only brisk walk in the open air or a
few free-hand movements on rising In
the morning OF renring at night. Few,
however. gain sufficient eXhilaration In
these diversions. Most people are more
strongly attracted by games, competi-
tons or the formssof exercise entered
into by considerable body Of persons
in unison. More than that. most PEG.
pie would prefer to watch others In
these pastimes than TO enter int them
in person.

CIRCUS MANS NARROW ESCAPE
Exposure Only AVerted Through Two
Fortunate Circumstances.

An old circus man tells this incident
40 one OF the narrow escapes he had
in the show business He had trained
lions, zebras, leopards, rhino-you
know-and all sorts OF beasts CT prey.
but this, he says, was his narrowest
escape.
1t was when he was running q dime
museum In Milwaukee.
One day a mild-mannered Russian
came out OF the railway station up at
the town that was made famous, with
a Valise In his hand He was heavily
bearded man and with shaggy hands
and arms like George Esan He hunt
ed up csbman and inquired modest
ly: Where is the dime museum"
The csbman told him and then
asked Want 10 ride up"
Yes" the bearded stranger told
him quietly, almost bashfully. I'm tn
be employed up there. I'm the wild
, man"
The narrow escape" says the ex
circus man. LAY in the fact that nc
newspaper men heard the mans re
mark, and that the cabman was an
ERglishman, with no sense Of humor
who never thought to repeat It,"

gave a shout of laughter.
Well I'm not going to be lobster
any longer" protested Doodles, with
a suggestion Of swagger in his man

two girls and they both said could

Look here, young man" said Doc

A POSITIVE CURE
FOR INDIGESTION

II you have Indigestion, your food
ferments in the stomach and bowels.
1t does more; it decays, and the nut
ritious matter which should go to
make new blood decays with it, and
this leads to an impoverished condi-
ton of the blood, to nervousness, bill
liousness, constipation, sick headache
bad breath which disgusts your friends
and other disagreeable and unpleas-
ant conditions.
And all this trouble is caused by
the food that doesn't digest, but fer.
ments and oftimes rots in the
stomach.
And fermentation is caused by the
stomach not being strong enough
and energetic enough to thoroughly
mix the food with the digestive
juices
MONA is responsible for tens OF
thousands of cures. In fact, it is
such a positive cure for indigestion
and all stomach troubles that it is
guaranteed by w. l.. Gokay to cure OF
money back. The price Of n large
box of Mi.o-na tablets Is so cents, and
they are sure to promptly relieve the
worst case Of indigestion or gastritis
Try them.

cHiLD,s CONFIDENCE IN DADDY.
Wanted Papa to Emulate the Historic
Act Of Moses.

The Sunday school lesson that day
had been about Moses leading the
children Of Israel through the wilder
ness to the Promised Land, and little
Bobby had been particularly impressed
by the incident Of the prophet strIk-
ing the rock with his staff and causing
the water to gush forth. After Sun
day school he took walk with his
father, and could talk of nothing else.
Now. Bobby has an overwhelming
respect for his fathers prowess, which
was not even overshadowed by the re
markabie achievement Of Moses. He
was thoroughly imbued with the Idea
that there wasn't thing in the world
his father couldn't do If that thing
were At all possible Of accomplish
ment. So when they came to a pile
Of large powders, with the Sunday
school lesson still uppermost in his
mind. he rather startled his father by
SxOlaiming;
Say, pop, hit rock. want a
drink"

Rules for Good Health.

To keep In good health II is neces
sary TO have regular hours for eating
and sleeping Meals should be ar
ragged to be served at the same time
each day and there should be no hurry
ing. Go to bed at a set hour and rise
regularly. A cold bath is a very great
aid toward maintaining health and
beauty. but II II is too great shock
to the system then tepid bath will
do. Do not, however. neglect the
morning bath. 1t is great deal
easier, OF course, to start taking q cold
bath In summer than In winter--any
way to contract the habit Do not eat
between meals-it is injurious to the
complexion and TO the general health.
Even afternoon tea is not at all good
for the average woman or man.
