COURTESIES KEEP
THE HOME HAPPY
Much in Life Depends on
Bright Family AtmOS-
phere

A bright. happy home is such Joy spot
Of earth that il is worth bending all efforts
TO achieve.
II every one Of us we're perfect, hap
piness would radiate from US so spon-
taneously that the place OF our habitation
would be refulgent with IL.
But as the most Of us are human. we
will probably find 1t necessary to make an
effort in certain directions in order TO
contribute our share toward the homes
happiness
For every one in the family must con-
tribute. one person cannot do il all. Nor
is It right that he should.
Though much depends upon the mis-
tress Of the home. she shouldn't he ex-
pected 10 be the whole happiness maker.
She sees TO it that her husbands easy
chair is just where he likes it. that the
light is right. that his slippers are handy.
that dinner is to his liking But on his part
he should show his appreciation of these
little loving attentions and not take them
as a matter OF course or as his due.
The self-willed boy can do much TO spoil
the happiness Of home. He may think
his mother is fussy. or his father too ex-
acting But he has his share to contribute
and it may be in just this matter of con-
ceding cheerfully his opinions, that is his
part.
A lazy daughter may cause dozen or
one little irritations that utterly break up
the homes happy atmosphere. But she
also has her part TO play for the good of
others. Patiently, day by day she should
endeavor to cast out these little foxes
that are spelling her own character as well
as the home. until she too is happiness
maker.
The mother who is careless casts a trail
Of disorder over the whole household, that
leads to much pickering and family jars
These little things. more than big things
spoil the happiness of home.
In the face of a great disaster, the whole
family arouses and each does his par
neroicallv. But these little things the,
let eat into the warp and woof Of family
life until the pattern that could be 81
beautiful. is spoiled At the table, aroun'
the evening lamp. when off in the morning
for the BUSINESS day. if each contribute
his share the home life will be thing o
JOY and beauty.

Mr.. Vandiver said to-day that th'
Pennsylvania Railroad had an offer fol
the removal of the bridge without i'm

to spend 100000 and let it stand, in

Tore Our Big Span.
When the Pennsylvania abandoned
the bridge for the new one built lower
down on the Susquehanna the Gov

the draw will be widened to % feet,
so as to permit carriages to pass in
the middle of the bridge. which is
nearly a mile long. The widened por-

feet long, so that any reasonable num-
her of wagons and carriages will find
a waiting place should there be a con-

The approaches to the bridge will be

When the Pennsylvania Railroad

Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'
Dance and Spasms, are all nerv-
Gus diseases. They have been
cured in so many instances with
DIR. Miles Nervine that it is
reasonable to conclude that it is
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost of the rem
edy. The best evidence you can
get of its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
it all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.

INDIAN WOMAN GOT THE BEAR.
Prodded Him Out with Her Scissors,
Then Tomahawked Him.

AS for that grit of women-meaning
Indian women-which has been cele-
brated in well-known book, there is
a story in Fur News which is good
evidence Of their physical courage.
A dealer in skins tells of squaw
who was walking along on her snow
shoes one day when her small boy
saw bear curled up under the snow
in his winter sleep. She could not kill
him where she was, so she dashed a
pair of scissors to a sapling, prodded
him out and smashed his head in with
her tomahawk as he emerged.
II gave her ten dollars for the skim"
writes the dealer, $50 it was not a bad
mornings work. Another ingenious
piece Of hunting that I remember was
accomplished by an Indian who found
two moose in a yard-that is, the
snow clearing which the animals
make when the frosts are breaking
up and the snow is too sharp and brit
tie for their comfort.
HE crept up and got the female
with his tomanawk. The male was
driven to fury and 1t was unsafe to ap-
proach him. The stroke Of a hoof
would put the Indian out OF business
in close order.
: Having no gun, he improvised a
bow and arrow from the trees, stuck
sharp file into the point Of the arrow,
made bowstring with the laces of his
moccasins and shot the beast through
the heart"
