Il Was the Other Way.

"Mr. Jones'" said the senior partner
in the wholesale dry goods house to
the drummer who stood before him In
the private Office, you have been
with us for the past ten years."
''Yes, sir"
And you ought to know the rules
OF the house, One of them is that no
man of ours shall take side line"
But have none, SIR"
But you have lately got married"
Yes; but can you call that a side
line, Mr.. Jones?"
Technically. it may not be-"
You needn't fear that having a
wife is going to bring me in off a trip
any sooner"
"Oh, don't. II is the fear that
having wife at home you'll want to
stay out on the road altogether"

WILLY WAS TOO LIBERAL
0vsrsuppIy Of Alcoholic Stimulants
Disturbed Schedule Of Funeral
Arrangements.

Dean Ramsay's memoirs contain an
anecdote of an old woman OF Straths-
pey. Just before her death she sol
emnly instructed her grandnephew:
willy, I'm deein', and as yell hae the
charge o. a. l have, mind now that as
much whisky is to be used at my fu-
neral as there was at my baptism"
Willy, having no record Of the guam
tity consumed at the baptism, decided
to give every mourner as much as he
wished, with the result that the fu.
neral procession, having to traverse
tenSmiles to the churchyard on a
short November day, arrived only at
nightfall.
Then 1t was discovered that the
mourners,> halting at wayside inn,
had rested the coffin on a dyke and
left 1t there when they resumed their
journey. The corpse was day late
In arriving at the grave.

Bishop William NJ. McVickar of the

The bishop is as big physically as he

some years ago he preached sermon
on the need for missionary work In

he said about it.

RAW ECZEMA ON HANDS

II had eczema on my hands for ten
years. l had three good doctors but
none Of them did any good. then
used one box of Cuticura Ointment
and three bottles of Cuticura Resolvent
and was completely cured. My hands
were raw all over, inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all over my
body and limbs. Before had used one
bottle. together with the Cuticura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time had
used the third bottle, was entirely
we'll. To any one who has any skin
or blood disease l would honestly ad-
wise them to fool with nothing else,
but get Cuticura and get well. My
hands have never. given me the least
bit Of trouble up to now.
my daughters hands this summer
became perfectly raw with eczema.
She could get nothing that would do
them any good until she tried Cuti-
cura- She used Cuticura Resolvent
and Cuticura Ointment and In two
weeks they were entirely cured. I
have used Cuticura for other members
of my family and 1t always proved sue

A COOL
PROPOSITION
And a Sure One.
The Body Does Not Feel Heat
Unpleasantly II II has
Proper Food
Grape=Nuts

People can live in a temperature
which feels from ten to twenty degrees
cooler than their neighbors enjoy, by
regulating the diet.
- The plan is to avoid meat entirely for
Esreakfast; use goodly allowance of
fyuit, either fresh or cooked. Then fol-
low with saucer containing about four
heaping teaspoonfuls Of Grape-Nuts,
treated with little rich cream. Add to
this about two slices Of crisp toast with
q meager amount Of butter, and one
cup of wellmade Postum.
BY this selection of food the bodily
energy is preserved. while the hot. car.
bonaceous foods have been left out.
The result is very marked difference
In the temperature Of the body, and
to this comfortable condition Is added
the certainty OF ease and perfect diges-
ton, for the food being partially pre-
digested Is quickly assimilated by the
digestive machinery.
Experience and experiment in food,
and its application to the human body
has brought out these facts. They
can be made use Of and add materially
to the comfort of the user.

NOT QUITE THE SAME THING

Since the Old Gentleman
Handed Out Advice.

Everybody who had known old
Henry admired him for the, charity of
his tongue when he spoke of his
ne,ghbors. 1t was his most marked
aracteristic-except the independ-
ence which he manifested in his po-
litical affiliations. 1t made young
man who was visiting In the neighbor-
hood curious. and one day he man
aged to lead up to the subject and
ask the old man what had taught him
to keep such a good watch on his
tongue.
1T was my father" replied the old
man, quietly. A splendid man, as
remember him. He always disliked
to hear folks gossiping unkindly
about each other. I've seen him, when
they began it, get on his feet, just like
a COW grazing and gradually working
toward a hole in the fence, and be-
fore any one knew II he'd be out Of
the room, SOS he couldn't hear 'em.
HE talked to me about It. Henry
he'd say. when you're OF age never
say anything about a man II you can't
say good OF him, and always vote the
straight party ticket"
But you don't vote that way"
well, sir" said Henry, you see

the pesky thing had got so crooked

nized It,"
