MY CREED.

This is my creed: To do some good,
To bear my ills without complain
ing,
To press on as brave man should
For honors that are worth the gain
ing;
To seek no profits where l may
By winning them bring grief to
others.
To do some service day by day
In helping on my toiling brothers.
This is my creed: Toclose my eyes
To little faults ofthose around me ;
To strive to be when each day dies
Some better than the morning
found me;
To ask for no unearned applause,
To cross no river till l reach it;
To always have a worthy cause,
To fearlessly and fairly preach it.
This is my creed: To wisely shun
The sloughs in which the foolish
wallow.
To lead where may be the one
Whom weaker men should choose
to follow.
To keep my standards always high,
To find my task and bravely do it ;
This is my creed-I wish that
Could even live half way up to it.

LAUGH AND LIVE LONG.

Thackeray truly remarked that the
world is for each of US much as we
show ourselves to the world. If we
face it with CHEEKY acceptance we
find the world fairly full of cheerful
people, glad to see US. If we snarl
Mt and abuse it, we may be sure of
abuse in return.
The discontented worries of mo-
rose person may very likely shorten
his days, and the general justice of
NATURES arrangement provides that
his early departure should entail no
long regrets. On the other hand, a
man who can laugh keeps his health,
and his friend are glad to keep him.
To the perfectly healthy laughter
comes often.
Too commonly, though, as child
hood is left behind, the habit fails,
and half-smileis the best that visits
the thought-lined mouth ofthe modem
man and woman. People become
more and more burdened with the
accumulations acknowledge and with
the weighing responsibilities of life,
but they should spare time to laugh.
Let them never forget, moreover,
and let it be medical mans practice
70 remind them that g smile sits
ever serene upon the face ofwisdom.

IL Is not at all necessary to Sacri-

latter all of the time, and they need
no encouragement to forget the duty

8, 1910, about Partisan Sage:

There is more catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put togstthher, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced 1t incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to, be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
| market. 1t is taken internally In
doses from ten drops to teaspoonful
1t acts directly on the blood and mu
cous surfaces of the system. They

PURELY VEGETABLE
THE ONE SAFE BLOOD REMEDY

1t is a generally recognized fact
that medicines taken from the botan-
ical kingdom are better adapted to
the delicate human system, and safer
in every way than those composed OF
strong mineral mixtures. Among
the very best and safest of vegetable
preparations is S. S. S., blood med
cine made entirely of roots, herbs and
barks, in such combination as to
make it the greatest OF all blood pur1-
fiers and the finest OF all tonics.
s. S. S. does not contain the least
particle of mineral in any form, and
is an absolutely safe medicine for any
one to use. While purifying the
blood, this great vegetable remedy
builds up every portion of the system.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases,
Scrofula, Constitutional Blood Dis
eases, and all impurities and morbid
conditions of the circulation. 1t Is
perfectly reliable and safe for children
and little ones who have been weak.
ened with scrofulous affections ol
other inherited blood troubles, car
take this mild vegetable remedy with
good results and without the slightest
danger. S. S. S. is unequalled as
tonic; it invigorates every portion o.
the system, and the healthy blood il
creates largely assists in overcoming
any arrangement of the stomach
and digestive system. II you need
blood medicine you could do no bette

For the smarter of the tailored
gowns a bag In . woven material II
thought dressier than one in an ami
NAL skin, that is, deer skin excepted,
for with the soft finish of suede, and
with brilliant metal frames, this skin
is made up in many stunning ways.
But the bag of velvet, or black MORE,
or Persian embroidery, is the thing
to the fore, such bags showing oval or
square frames and cord handles with
a tassel finish. A huge affair of black
moire, with an oval top in bright gilt
clasping with two tapping knobs, Is
the one approved by the girl who trips
along In the short tight skirt In the
latest fashion. In fact, the more ex-
travagantly narrow the petticoats and
the more they show trim ankles, the
bigger the bag, often.
Innings of these useful accessories
match In elegance, MORE in delicate
colors-violet, pale blue gray or GER
ise-being the favorite doublings. In
every bag. whatever its material,
there is the usual tiny change purse,
and If the article is very fine there is
often q fat square purse as well.
Black velvet and moire bags go with
frocks in any color; indeed, In these
materials black is the smartest note.
The tinted suede bags. OF which
there is a vast number, must match
the color of the gown, or else harmon
ize prettily with 1t. Violet and pale
olive are favorite colors for these,
and such hues go finely with black
frocks. A novelty in both suede and

opportunity will be given the railroads
to meet with representatives of the
locomotive engineers. If they ignore
the opportunity, it is threatened that
within six hours every engine West
of Chicago, in all branches Of service,
will be stilled, the fires drawn and
every driver on duty will leave his
cab. 1t is said that the total number
of engineers involved will be about
$4,000
The controversy which may bring
on the greatest railroad strike in the
history of the West, arose from the
enginemen in convention at Detroit
last spring. After discussion last
ing three weeks, it was decided that
the existing wage scale, in effect since
February, 1907, was unsatisfactory.
and that working conditions had been
imposed by the railroads that should
be eliminated. Then followed twenty
five conferences with the railroad Off
cials, which were without satisfactory
results.
1t is alleged that the increase asked
by the engineers would add $2,S00,00O
annually to the payroll of the roads
involved Engineers ask also to be
relieved of the care of locomotives be
fore and after runs, and ask other
changes in working conditions. The
brotherhood is a powerful organiza
ton, including in its membership
about all the competent engineers in
this section. and there is little doubt
that in the end their demands will
have to be granted.
Among some of the more important
railroads involved are the Santa Fe
