From the PhlIadeIphla IInles
 pr. Russell H.. Conway is a great be- liever in patience, and he recently told story indicating what he believed to be an example of making a virtue of patience
 A young man was standing at the gate, waiting for his sweetheart and when at last she appeared he remarked, kindly:

It is therefore, easy to understand how, aft CT having followed the adventures of popular hero or heroine of friction and having been taken into the conft- dence of these persons, that one should l have a desire to meet them face to face In renewing the acquaintance of | old friends made over from cold type into flesh and blood, one. feels satis- | faction not easily described. It ia some times akin to psychological phenomenon It is perhaps not too much to. say that George Barr Me Icutcheons story 'Brewsters Millions,' has had as many, if not more, readers than any American work of friction re- gently published. It is therefore nat ural that the combined armies of fic- tion readers and theatregoers will look forward to the apeparance of Carl Ger. ard in Frederic Thompson's production of this story at the Bijou in the near future Frederic Thompson's name is a sufficient warrant for the public con- fidence in the matter of complete pictorial surroundings and an acting company of the first class.

Cure For Constipation--Trial Free

Constipation Is not an imaginary ailment You know whether you have 1t or not. No one can argue you into 1t or out of it. By the same token, If you take a remedy and 1t cures you, you must be con- vinced that 1t was the remedy that did it. Here are some people who give Dr. CaIdwell's Syrup Pepsin the credit of curing their constipa- tion-a credit that is important when you consider how many pre- vious attempts they had made with other remedies Syrup Pepsin Is the recognized peer of all laxatives. It is not only substitute for salts and purgatives, but, by its milder more scientific action. has done much to lessen their use. It is the best remedy you can buy for your self and family for any stomach. liver or bowel trouble. All drug
 gists sell 1t and 1t can be obtained of them at fifty cents and one dollar large bottle. If you want to test 1t first send your address to pr. Caldwell and he will furnish you a free sample bottle for home trial Between these testimo onials and the offer of free sample bot tie you ought to begin the use of Syrup Pepsin without delay

osawatomle and PottawatomIe

The spelling OF the two words
Osawatomie and Pottawatomie causes
considerable confusion to this day;
but that is the way maps have them
now, and that of course makes them
official"
Osawatomie, famed In Kansas his
tory, is located between the Usage
River and the Pottawatomie. It Ia
named from these streams. In the
early days two SIS" were frequently
used in its spelling, but the improprie-
ty Of their use was shown and pointed
out by the school teachers by simply
explaining the words derivation.
The name of Pottawatomle, though,
had about ten different spellings, ac-
cording to an old settler OF that COM
munity. "The tribe of Indians" he
said, left the State and did not leave
us the correct spelling Of the word. So
we people along the creek finally got
together and decided to spell the word
the shortest way possible-Pot-a-wat-
o-mie. Now they are using two 't's' on
the maps, and guess that is the way
to spell it-now. We spelled II the
shortest way, and have often thought
that we were the original simplified
spoilers. kansas City Journal.

NO TIPS IN FINLAND.
Maids Surprise on Receiving Money
from Mistress Guests.

A country where there are no tips
and where small services are rendered
to the stranger without hope Of reward
would seem hard to find-yet such a
country is Finland
So far the tourist has not appeared
In any great numbers, and conse-
quently the commercial spirit which
his advent always marks has been abb
sent. AS an example Of this, Nine.
Aino Malmberg, Finnish lady, who
Is paying visit to this country, tells
an amusing story. Two English
friends whom she had met while over
here had been staying with her at
her house in Helsingfors, and on leav-
ing gave the maid tip.
She was very much astonished and
did not know what 1t meant. Seeing
Nine. Malmberg's son coming down
stairs, she ran to him and said, "They
gave me money. Did they give you
any?" Hearing that they had not
done so, she was MUCH mystified. Il
cannot understand why they should
give 1t to me and not to you. when
they know you much better than me" /"
was her perplexed comment on the
incident

SCARCITY OF LEATHER.
A Condition for Which the Automo-
bile Industry Is Largely Responsible.

A Condition for Which the Automo-
bile Industry Is Largely Responsible.
When the scarcity of hides and
skins Is referred to 1t Is hardly under
stood by the layman, who perhaps
does not know that the world is being
secured in all corners for all avail
able skins and hides. More races are
constantly becoming civilized and the
increase of our hide and skin supply
is not in proportion to that of the
human race.
The amount of leather used in the
manufacture of novelties of all kinds
has increased to great extent with
in few years, says the Shoe Retailer,
but In no line has the use Of leather
broadened so extensively as in auto
mobile manufacture.
Any one who is at all familiar with
an automobile knows that there is a
considerable amount of leather used
in its construction, in upholstery and
otherwise. This means large
draught on the leather market, which
is perhaps more noticeable in the high
price of spready steers, the hides of
which are extensively used for that
purpose.

Phosphorescent Forests.

The phosphorescence of certain
agaries of Borneo has more than once
demoralized the superstitious natives
and astonished whites. Some years
ago a party of English engineers
found It necessary to survey a tract
of low lying country, which was al
most impenetrable, and to blaze the
trail natives were employed to work
at night, others during the day. The
former came into camp one night
stating that they could not go through
a portion OF the bush or forest,
strange Spirits" on the trees telling
them that evil would befall them IL
they continued. The Spirits" proved
to be a magnificent display of phos-
phorescence emanating from agaries
growing upon the dead limbs OF the
trees. These vegetable fire bodies were
traced for a considerable distance,
producing a most remarkable exhibi-
tion, the light in some places being so
brilliant that It was difficult to believe
that the forest was not afire. To test
the brilliancy the men held papers
near the most brilliant portions and
read by the light.

Sermons In Ancient Times.

st. Augustine's sermons lasted
about Is minutes, but in that ancient
day It was no uncommon thing to
have several at the same service.
When two or more bishops were pres
ent It was usual for them and the
presbyters to preach one after the
other. reserving the last place for the
highest dlgnatary. Some consolation,
however, was to be found in the fact
that applause was permitted and
many of st. Chrysostom's sermons
were hailed with the tossing of gar
ments and waving of handkerchief" "

hundred forty nine. When it is
considered that there are two

not include the many cars that

father demonstrated in his business

works with an eye to profit. The re-
sponsibillty OF the farm is not new to
her. For several years she practical
ly held control her father seldom in-

than offering a suggestion. Hartman
was proud of his daughters talent for
management. They were familiar

Hartman, as a rule, holding the reins
over one of his fast trotters. Miss
Hartman cares more for her farm
than for society. She is keen judge
