New Use For Wedding Rings.

A handsome tabernacle of silver has
been erected in the Chapel of the
Blessed Sacrament in the new Roman
Catholic cathedral at Westminster
For years past, in anticipation of this
event, a lady who has done much for
the cathedral has been collecting gold
rings on which the inner curtains
might hang. She has succeeded In
persuading many Of her friends and
relatives to leave at death their we'd
ding rings for this service. At the
present moment the curtains of silk
inside the tabernacle are supported by
about fourteen golden rings which she
has obtained, ard on each CT them the
name of its donor is inscrithd.-Lon-

been telling a funny story. He was
once called into consultation when a
burglary took place at a public house
in Haslemere, where he was then liv-

and made elaborate notes, and while
he was doing so the village constable,
a large, red faced man. went out and
seized the actual culprit and marched

are facts which we want the people of
Belding TO substantiate. We want

physician whose speciality was catarrh,
and who has record OF thirty years of
cures TO his credit.
We sell more bottles and receive more
good reports about ReXall Mucu-Tone
than we do of all other catarrh remedies
sold in our store, and If more people
only knew what thoroughly depend
able remedy ReXall Mucu-Tone is, il
would be the only catarrh medicine we
would have any demand for.
ReXall Mucu-Toneisq quickly absorbed

tire mucous membranous tract, destroys
and removes the parasites which injure

uNsuNe HEROES OF THE DEEP
Life-savers Succeed or Fall Without
the Applause of the World.

The life-saver is never a demonstra-

his life is a hazardous one and of ex-
ceeding interest to those engaged In
more peaceful pursuits, but In vain.
Only the details of his daily duties,
which are many and arduous, seem TO
appeal to him; the romantic side, the
perilous side, he sees not at all. He
will talk by the hour of life buoys and
life-lines, or night signals and wireless
telegraphy, of searchlights and motor
lifeboats; but of himself, who Is the

Providence Placed Talisman in His
Hand When He Was Thrown I'M
conscious Among Cannibals.

OF all the many mysterious products
of the ocean, none can compare with the
sea-bean. Scientists are divided as to
its origin, as no one has ever seen the
shrub or vine on which it grows, and it
is never found save when the bosom of
the deep has been rent by hard storm,
when the sea-beans, cast forth from
some mysterious depth, are found scat
tered along the beach, derelicts of the
tide. There are numerous varieties,
large and small, and some are very rare,
especially the large liver bean, and the
banded bean. The savage tribes which
inhabit the South Seas regard them as
almost sacred, and look upon the lucky
possessor of one of the rare varieties as
particularly favored by the gods. Dusky
bellies, having in their possession these
are products of the deep, will fight for
their treasure against all corners, as they
believe that the sea-bean gives them I'M
Usual power, especially in love, and that
any man on whom their affections are
set, must yield to their charms if they
but touch him with the lucky bean.
One touch Of the bean binds their lover
to them forever.

MEASURE OF TRUE GREATNESS.
Success Never to Be Counted In Piles
Of Dollars.


What an unfortunate thing that the
idea should be dinned into the ear OF
youth everywhere that 1t Is disgrace
70 fail-that is, to fail to make money,
to accumulate property.
1t is not disgrace to fail; but 1t is
to succeed. Not failure, but low aim
Is crime"
Multitudes of poor people to-day
who are not known outside of their
own little communities are really
great successes when measured by all
that makes true greatness-their
heroic endeavors, their brave battle
for years with obstacles, playing a
losing game with heroism. Their
great patience and wonderful self-con'
troll under the criticism Of those who
do not understand them are evidence
that they have succeeded. The pos
session of noble character is the
greatest evidence in the world that
one has succeeded.
On the other hand, II a man has
gotten a fortune, but has left his man
hood on the way to IT.; If he has bar
tered his good name In the process OF
getting it, he is still failure, no mat
ter how much money he may have
accumulated.
A clean record is the greatest kind
of success. And how few men who
make big fortunes manage to save
their good name. to keep their record
clean!-Success Magazine.
