Jim fldgeted. Bella was having

HARRISON man did not smile. He
stood for a moment looking at the
fire: Then he thrust his hands deep
into the pockets Of his dressing-gown
and stalked over to me. He did not

the prospective lodger with an idea OF
how extremely eligible the neighbor-

And Just when had decided that l

love to . woman whom he thought
married and then be very dignified
and aloof when he found she wasn't, l
heard what was wrong with the tele.
phone wire.
It had been cut! Cut through with
. pair Of silver manicure scissors
from the dressing table in Bella's
room, where Aunt Selma sleptl Tho
wire had been clipped where It came
into the house. Just under q window.
and the scissors still lay on the sill.
It was mysterious enough. but no
one was interested in the mystery
Just then. We wanted food. and want
ed It at once. Mr.. HARRISON fixed the
wire. and the first thing we did, Of
course. was to order something to eat.
Aunt Selma went to bed Just after
luncheon with indigestion. to the re-
lief Of every one In the house. She
had been most unpleasant all morn
ing.
When she found herself Ill. how.
ever, she insisted on having Bella,
and that made trouble at once. We
found Bella with her cheek against
the door into Jim's room, looking
maudlin while he shouted love mes
sases to her from the other side. At
first she refused to stir. but after
Anne and Max had tried and failed,
the rest Of us went to her in q body
and implored' her. We said Aunt
Selma was In awful shaps-which
she was. ~ to temper-and that she
had thrown . mustard plaster .,
Anne. which was true.
So Bella went, grumbling, and Jim
was maniac. We had not thought II
would be 20 bad for Bella. but Aunt

thought I was alone. After . while
I got a whin Of smoke, and then
saw Mr.. HARRISON far over in the cor
ner. one foot on the parapet, moodily
smoking a pipe. He was gazing Out
over the river, and paying no atten
ton to me. This was natural, con
sidering that I had hardly spoken tc
him all day. t
would not let him drive me away
SO sat still. and 1t grew darker and
colder. He filled his pipe now and
then, but he never looked in my di

and came toward me.

THE BOY AND THE DREAM.
80 He little BOY smiled in his sleep
that night
AS he wandered to Twilight
ID. Town,
And his face lit up with a heav-
emily light
Through the shadows that drifted down.
But he woke next morning with tear
stained eye
In the light of the gray dawn's gleam.
And out from the stiffness we heard him
cry,
Eve lost my dream-my dream!'
And he told us then in his childish way
OF the wonderful dream he'd known.
He had wandered away from the land of
play
To the distant Land of the Grown.
He had won his share of the fame and
fight
In the struggle and toll Of men,
And he sobbed and sighed in the breaking
light,
Il want my dream again"
AS the years passed by the little boy grew
Till he came to the Land Of the Grown,
And the dream of his early youth came
true, %.H
The dream that he thought had flown.
Yet once again he smiled in his sleep
When those near by might have heard
him weep.
Il want my dream-my dream!'
For he dreamed of the yesterdays OF.
youth
And the smile on mothers face.

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the Pure
rood and Drug law in its relation to
Prepared Medicines, does not refer to
such standard medicines as Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound aud Foley
Kidney Pills, both of which are true
medicines carefully compounded of
ingredients whose medicinal qualities
are recognized by the meaical profess
sion itself as the best known remedial
agents for the diseases they are in
tended to counterfeit. For over three
decades Foley Honey and Tar Com
pound has been a standard remedy for
coughs, colds and affections Of the
threat, chest and lungs for children
and for grown persons, and it retains
to day its -eminence above all other
preparations of its kind Foley Kidney
Pills are equally effective and meri-

last summers hat? Here I'm still

have the best of homes and the best
of clothes, and yet, when you buy the
very best things there are, you aren't
willing to wear them two seasons!
Why, my mother used to get hat and
pay only a couple of dollars fer it;
then she used to turn the ribbons on
it, or put the feathers on the other
side or trim it up with a few flowers,
and there she had hat as good as
new, year after year, with hardly any
expense.
"Those were the days when men
could save money! Now, woman, in
stead of wearing one hat until it's real
ly worn out, must have two or three
in one year! It's sinful extravaganza!

any such notions, to lead astray the
younger women and help them ruin
their husbands!
