SETTING A HIGH STANDARD
ChiId's Idea OF Goodness Set Forth
In Perfect Faith, Without
lrreverence.

All things are relative and to the
child, gazing at life and its wonders
with eyes as yet undimmed by So
phistication or sorrow, nothing is i'm
possible, nothing unspeakable, moth
ing too sacred to be discussed or too
difficult to be attempted Not irrev-
erence nor impertinence, but limo
cence prompts such speeches as that
recorded of the child of a popular
journalist by his devoted paternal
grandmother.
Grandma" said the little boy, de-
lightedly addressing her, do you
know what's going to happen? Papa
says that II we're real, real good he'll
take us to the Crcus!"
That's nice, smiled the young
hearted adult between whom and the
eager youngling no hint of age sepa-
ration mars perfect comradship. How
good do we have to bel"
The embryo man. after moment OF
silent consideration: s'Oh, as good as
God, I guess!"

Some Antique MUGS.

The college collector of antiques
stopped off at Bacon Ridge
Good day, sir, he said, addressing
the postmaster. Il am collecting old
fashioned articles and would like to
know If | could find anything like that
in his hamlet. Say antique mugs, for
instance"
Uncle Jason stroked his chin wills
kers.
Antique mugs! BY HEX, | know the
very place where thar be two of them
now"
You do? Here's a good cigar. Now
where can find these antique mugs"
why, down on Main street, In Hi

Socially Launched.

In his native town Jimmy had al
ways been most popular with young
and old, but when he was sent away
to boarding school, he was for time
too homesick to make friends. His
first letter was little more than a
wall
I'm way behind the other boys in
everything he wrote, dolefully.
"'Tisn't only studies, but it's gymna-
SUM and banjos and everything.
don't believe they'll ever have much
use for me-"
But the second letter, written after
a week In the new school, was quite
different In tone.
I'm all right" he wrote to his
mother, The boys say they'll teach
me all they know, for they're proud
to have me here. | can stretch my
mouth half an inch wider than any
other boy in school, and my feet are
the longest by a full inch So you
needn't worry about me any more" -

Is it possible to nourish, strengthen and Re-
build the Brain by Food?
Every man who thinks uses up part of the
brain each day Why don't 1t all disappear
and leave an empty skull in say month Of
brain work? Because the man rebuds each
day
If he builds little less than he destroys
brain flag and nervous prostration result sure
If he builds back little more each day the
brain grows stronger and more capable That
also is sure. Where does man get the material
to rebuild his brain? Is it from air. sky or the
ice of the Arctic sea? When you come to
think about 1t, the rebuilding material must
be in the food and drink
That also Is sure.
Are the brain rebuilding materials found IN
all food? In good variety but not in suitable
proportion in all.
To illustrate: we know bones are made large
iy of lime and magnesia taken from food;
therefore to make healthy bone structure we
must have food containing these things. We
would hardly feed only sugar and fat to make
healthy bone structure In growing child
Likewise If we would feed in skillful man
ner to insure getting what the brain requires
for strength and rebuilding. we must first know
what the brain is composed of and then select
some article or articles lthere are more than
one) that contain these elements.

authority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phosphorc Acid and Potash combined tPhos-

Ace Of Oysters.

Oysters grow only during the sum-
mer and especially during the long.
warm summers at that and are scarce
ly big enough for the mouth before
the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over bunch of shells to tell how
old an oyster is. summer hump and
the winter sink come across the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then, by
looking at the sinks between the
humps it is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oysters age. Oysters
live to be 20 years old.

Additional immigration Agents Ap.
pointed by the Southern Railway.

Washington, D. c., March 1S.-In-
creased ACTIVITY on part OF the South
ern Railway Company in the work OF
attracting settlers to the South il in
Dictated by the announcement that two
additional travelling immfgratiom agent
have been appointed i'm the Land and
Industrial Department. IT H. Jones,
with headquarters at st. Louis, will
travel the Central West, and J. B.
Finster will have headquarters at
Washington, I'd. G. These new appoin-
tees are well equipped with expert
ence and training in immigration
work and their duties will be to solic-
1T desirable classes to locate inathe
South.
With these additional agents in the
field, the work of the Southern Rail-
way for the upbuilding and develop
ment Of the South should be even more
effective than in the past. For years
the Southern Railway Company has
devoted its energies and employed it's
means for development of the terri
tory it serves as well as for the bet
terment and expansion of its lines and
| equipment. Through its Land and5I In
dustria1 Department a carefully pre-
pared plan for the promotion of i'm
migration and industrial enterprises
was devised when the Company was
organized in 1894 and this has been
steadily followed. It has drawn the
attention of capital and enterprise
from all parts of United States and
from Europe to the South, its oppor-
tunities and and has thus
Unidentified itself with the progress OF
the South.
That the Company is convinced of
the efficacy of its past efforts. and the
wisdom of the expenditures thus en-
tailed is manifest in the announce
ment that this work is to be contin-
ed ON a larger scale.
