Young man, when you are counting
your best girl, don't get soft. Don't
say: These little hands will not do "A
stroke of work when you are mine, and
You shall have nothing to do in our
house but to sit all day long and ehirp
to the cAuaries." As il any sensible
woman could be happy fooling away
her time in that sort of STYLE. A girl
has retentive memory of the soft
things and silly promises of courtship,
and occasionally, in after years, when
she is bending over the wash tub or
patching the west end of your trousers
she will remind you OF them in tie
cold sarcastical tones of voice

chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence OF

whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why

the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get pack

There are some people you cannot be
with for half an honr but you feel
cheered and comforted. Then there
are other people You cannot be with
for five minutes before You feel miser-
able. They do not mean to disturb you
but they annoy you to the bone. They
gather mp all the yarn which the Cos.
sips spin, and peddIe it out They
gather up all the adverse criticism
about your person, about your bust
ness, about your home, about your
church, and they make your ear the
funnel into which they pour it. They
laugh heartily when they tell yon, as
though it were joke, and you laugh,
too--outside. If you are pale in APP
pearance they will say, How very bad
you lool-a-a-h! not long for this
world" You greet them with hilari-
Gus good morning" and they come
buzzing at you with some depressing
i Information. 1t is astonishing how
many people in this world prefer to
say disagreeable things and prefer to
write disagreeable things.

Some people are blest with abundance
left them by their ancestors, and are
not compelled to battle for the neces-
saries Of life, which may be happy
state, but after ali it's little thing to
boast of, and really impertinent, to go
about expressing the idea Il don't have
to work" It's God-send that all are
not so ''hlest, for if none had to shift
for themselves the old world would
soon become as stagnant as cess pool
Necessity, it is said, is the mother of
invention, and those that nave to
work" are the ones. that keep the
wheels of progress moving. and not
those that are resting at ease in the
plenty which others have earned and
beqneathed to them.

About all you hear from some people
are criticisms. No matter how great

how earnest the worker, they see moth

supervisors to draw new list.
Sec. 337-a was brought to the atten-
ton of court by County Attorney
Craig. Attorney Craig stated that
there is no list of names of 1910
from which to draw. Several cases
were cited, showing that the pro-
vision by the court was made to
meet emergency, such as the kind
that has arisen in the present case.
One case cited held that the court
had the inherent power to set aside
jury list from which a panel
could not be drawn or secured.
County Attorney Craig stated that
list was needed for the year 1910
not only for the November term. Il
| this contingency had arisen in January
there would be need for list fol-
| the subsequent terms, he said. The
defense made no objection to the
states application, only requested
some form in writing be made sc
that an exception could be taken.
