What ia a Dollar?

The Rev. George Wood Anderson, of St.
Louis, himself chaplain OF an advertising
club, recently made few remarks before
the Pilgrim Publicity association Of Boston
on the almighty dollar. "a dollar is not
an insignificant thing. 1t is Of great
value. Here is dolIar-what is it? Legal
tender, says one.
sit is more than that; this dollar liz part
OF my life. 1t is one Of my yesterdays. l
worked hard the other day and earned a
dollar. In the evening could have thrown
it away, saying that money is nothing, but
l looked at it and said: This is all have
in tangible form of one day Of my life; l will
save it as would guard my life; to-mor-
row / need not work, for my yesterday will
secure the ser ices OF someone else who
can peform my task.
"But prefer to keep the dollar and earn
another, and thus, as guard my health in
order to take care of the future, 1 guard
my dollars which are my past. My dollars
are my yesterdays, and shall save them
until have sufficient OF them to work
while sleep. Only the product OF their
effort makes sure a well-cared- for old age,
free from worry"

SAID that they might either Be- saved
OF all taken together; but God knew best,
Some were already struggling in the angry
sea, to 20 down and never rise to this
world again.
Inc little row boat was beside the fast
sinking craft, and eli that were left were
the captaih, his mother, wife and little
son. He put them in the little boat ten
deriy, and with kiss to each and prayer
that they mightbe saved, he vas gone.
The Daisy sank beneath the waves: 40
many noble souls gone out Of our SUNNY
world foreveri
The little boat drifted to the island, and
and as it struck, the occupants got out,
little caring what became OF them, now
that all they held dear was gone.
As the sun came up next morning it
looked down on the remains Of the wreck,
and the mother, wife and son sitting to-
gether, all too heart broken to heed or
notice the small boat which put OF from
the side Of steamer laying but short
distance from the island.
The little dog Jip had called the atten-
ton OF the sailors on board the steamer by
his loud barking as he caught sight Of
her.
They are on their way back to their
home now, and the friends they left, with
hearts sadder than they were when they
sailed away in the gay little Daisy.
We will leave them as they are speeding
on their way, and give thanks with them
that the three were left to comfort each
other

For Sleeplessness :.

Lack of proper ventilation often causes
sleeplessness. Many ills of mankind
have been blamed on the ''draught", and
while, to mothers, it seems bad policy
to bring up child with the draught- Of
air fear always present in mind, it is
not advisable to sleep with the air blow
ing directly over the body.
There should be plenty OF air in the room.
Wear q nightcap il you are afraid of q
cold in the head and place screen in
front OF the window. That will protect
the body and yet allow free current OF
cir through the room. II you are sleepless,
fill the the lungs with fresh air, breathe
deeply and rhythmically and soon you
will fall asleep. A cup OF hot milk and
long, deep breaths Of fresh air are better
sleep-inducers than drugs.

Roman Ship Unearthed In London.
On the south bank of the Thames, in
London, while digging the foundations for
new building recently, some timbers
we're unearthed "sodden into the con-
sistency OF black cheese. They lay
twenty feet below the modern surface and
at the bottom Of seven feet OF solid mud,
the deposit Of ages, and below them,
wonderful to relate, was bed OF silver
sand.
The timbers clearly formed part OF
wooden vessel, which the experts declare
was q genuine Roman boat = the only
carved, built Roman boat ever found in
Britain. Only dugouts have been found
before.
About one half of the barge is left. It
must have been something like sixty
or seventy feet long. 1t is OF oak and it
lies on the ground like slightly curved
black floor. The main part of it is the
bottom Of the boat, some forty feet by
fourteen.
You can see clearly the great beam that
formed the keel and the strong ribs Of the
INC OOtLuLu hu0 tuC DcAt AAUo "a tAo oAoOps
this most perfect Of which come up over
the gunwale and curves over il with Q
curious rectangular undercut in the curve
as if for the play of q rope along the side.
The oak pegs are still in place and several
OF the long nails.
The vessel looks as il it had been run
ashore on dropping tide when it made
its last journey about 1,6O0 years ago. In
1t was found coin OF the year 202 Of the
Emperor Carausius, who rebelled against
Rome and held his own in Britain for
several years. Gibbon tells us that
Carausius built feet to maintain his
power and mayhap this Thames barge
formed part Of that earliest British feet.
In the oarge were found also coin Of
the year 80, some scraps Of leather shoes
and fragments of black pottery with the
plain network pattern.

The appalling death-rate from kidney
disease is due in most cases to the fact
that the little kidney troubles are usually
neglected until they become serious. The
slight symptoms give place to chronic dis
orders and the sufferer goes gradually into
the grasp OF diabetes, dropsy, Bright's dis
ease, gravel or some other serious form of
kidney complaint.
II you suffer from backache, headaches,
dizzy spells; if the kidney secretions are
irregular OF passage and unnatural in ap-
pearance, do not delay. Help the kidneys
at once.

kidney disorders-they cure where others
