BOYS ESSAY ON HORNETS.

Epworth Herald.
A hornet Is the smartest bug that
flies anywhere. He comes when he
pleases and goes when he gets ready.
One way the hornet shows his smart
ness is by attending to his own
business, and making everything who
interferes with him wish they had
done the same thing.
When a hornet stings a fellow he
knows it, and never stops talking
about 1t as long as his friends will
listen to him. One day a hornet
stung my pa (my pa is a preacher) on
the nose and he did not do any
pastoral visiting for month without
talking about that hornet.
Another way hornet shows his
smartness Is by not procrastinating.
II he has any business with you, he
will attend to 1t at once, and then
leave you to think over 1t yourself.
He don't like the mosquito, who
comes foolIng around for half an hour
singing, cousin, Cousin, and then
when he has bled you all he can, rush
away yelling, "No kim A hornet

no need OF internal treatment In any

MEMS GALLANTRY.
ny ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

A lady who had been living In Paris
for nearly ten years returned to New
York and made many interesting
comments upon the difference In
manners and morals and tastes OF the
two nations.
One thing which seemed especially
noticeable to her here was the absence
Of the rom mantic or passional element
between the sexes as she saw them
mingling In business places or In
public conveyances.
"In France" she said, mo man any
where or in any situation looks at or
addresses woman without her being
conscious that she is woman. There
is a certain gallantry OF glance on his
part, an indefnable suggestion Of
cOquetry on hers IN she Is French), no
matter how commonplace their meet
ing or business like their association.
Here, men seem to reserve their
sentiment for our sex until they are
at leisure. During business hours
women are merely good fellows to
them. and they treat them as they do
| other men,"
| MEN PEsTER WOMEN EMPLOYEES.
That was one woman's impression,
and l believe French author Of
much renown who paid America a
short visit gave vent to similar
criticism.
But am In possession OF many con.
fdences from my own sex, and have
observed many cases which render me
somewhat skeptIcal OF the purely
platonic attitude of the American Ia
business hours toward woman.
Only recently brave lady caused
the arrest OF q street masher, who
insisted upon pronounced admiration
OF her 10 public.
Well.behaved girls and women are
followed every day by men who insist
upon response to their smiles and
nudges; after indifference or rebuff
the majority OF such men desist. but

Regarding Family Skeletons.

Here is little sermon we found in
one of cur exchanges this week. 1t
is so good that we publish it:
Every time your neighbors closet is
open don't stretch your neck to tell
what you saw. DO you ever stop to
think that some day tragedy may take
up its abode in your home? Can't you
get it into your head that some day
the tongue of SANDER may cut you
like poisoned sword and the whisper
of neighbors be as vinegar to your
wounds? Misfortune and disgrace may
have struck your neighbor but it does
not become you to get upon the house
tops and shut it out to the world. You
will have all you can do to answer for
your own indiscretions. Some day one
near and dear 10 you may fall-the
prison walls may open to a son or the
scarlet letter of eternity may blight a
daughter. When q home is mourning
over tragedy. the best thing you can
do is to keep your mouth shut, unless
you can say something that will come
as rift in the clouds. Then again,
you know, you may be no better than
your neighbor. The only difference is
that they were caught, and you,
up to date, have kept sunlight away.
Be charitable to your neighbor as you
know not the hour nor the day when
the light will appear in your sacred
circle"

Italy, has been wrecked and burned
by mob, Infatuated by Ferrer's fate.
The priests were maltreated, one be-
ing killed.
The famous cathedral of Pisa of
which the leaning tower of Pisa was
a part, having formerly been the bel
fry. was designed by Boschetto and
Rinaldo, famous Italian architects.
1t was begun in 1868 and was not com
pIeted until lib. In the centuries
that followed Pisa was the scene of
many violent wars and much blood
shed.
The design of the cathedral was that
of a plain Latin cross with an external
length of Biz feet and breadth of
252 feet. The nave, 100 feet high, YVES
supported by marble arches.

Peary's Statement Incredible.

Prof L. l.. Dyche. head of the De-
partment of Natural History of the
University of Kansas, who made sew
eral trips to t. e North as member of
both the Pealy and Cook exploring
partieSs and who is personally ac-
quainted with the explorers. Wednes-
day made statement to the Topeka
State Journal concerning Commander
Robert E. Peary's statement. Prof
Dyche's statement is in part as fol-
lows:
Commander Peary's statement,
published today, to my mind is abso-
lutely incredible. 1t is based on the
testimony of ignorant Eskimos who
were incapable of understanding a
country to which they had never been
before well enough to outline such a
map as that published today and cred
tied by Mr.. Peary to their explanations.
Only intelligent white men with in
struments could make their way to
such country and be able to report in
detail upon it year after the trip was
made.
While l believe Commander Peary
reached the pole have not shade v
of doubt that Dr. Cook reached the
pole first, and exactly as ne details in
his own published story.
1.-The most astonishing part of Com
mander Peary's story, it seems to me,
consists of statement that DR.. Cook
got to the north part of the land bor-
dering on the great Arctic Ocean, the
point for which he had striven for a
month during the hardships of intense
cold and the rigors of Arctic Climate,
with ample supplies, sleds and Eski-
mos all in first class condition, and
then simply turned back, apparently
no reason.
"How unlikely it is that a man with
over twenty years Arctic experience,
fired with an ambition of a lifetime.
would give up just at time and place
when one of tire greatest trophies the
world had to bestow upon brave and
daring explorer was standing within
his reach, reckoning him to come on. -

Mild Laxative
for Baby Free

The child of today is the parent of
the future, and whether it grows up
healthy and strong, or puny and weak,
depends upon the intelligence of its
parents, for most children are born
into the world healthy, but thousands
become future weaklings between
birth and the age of ten, when the
parents are still in greatest control.
The prime cause of trouble is in the
stomach. A baby that is, digesting its
full; the little child whose stomach is good
romps and plays and never whines; the
growing child learns well at school and is
eager for fun if it's head is clear and its
stomach light. and that means II 1t has
no constipation.
The best and safest way to cure any
trregularity of the stomach and bowels
in children is by the use of DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin. This is a liquid laxatiye
Durham, Apple Creek, O., Mrs. H. l..
Cullam, Plainville, Ind, and numerous
others can testify who give it to their
children with extraordinary results.
A bottle only costs so cents or 81 ac-
cording to the size you want, and even
one 50-cent bottle will do a. wonderful
amount Of good in family. 1t can be
given to any member OF the family in
constipation, sour stomach, Indigestion,
torpid liver, dyspepsia, heartburn, sick
headache and similar digestive troubles.
It never gripeS or strangles like pills,
tablets, salts and powders, which should
not be given to children, women or old
folks.
If you have child or other member Of
the family who needs, but has never used
this grand laxative tonic, send your name
and address to the doctor and free trial
bottle will be sent to your home. In this
way you can find out what it will do
without personal expense.
