FRIENDSHIP.

Editor Social Corner: After all that
has been written in this corner about
friendship, am impressed that all any
of US need is a friend. Do you not
remember the little story about the
Christ-likeness of Charles Kingsley S
manner which, so charmed Mrs.
Browning that she inquired how he
acquired it that she might also take
ON his Christian graces; and he mod
estly replied: Il had friend With
such a friend and with His attributes,
should we not all become true friends
to one another? We poor mortals Oft
en- get misdirected when we are look
ing for friendship which might be
called heart cheer This one Friend
honored, would make true friends of
every one of us, so that we need not
seek friends that are without. but just
take counsel of the Friend who is
within. RUTH.

AN INQUIRY.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: ]
wonder if any of you have had an ex-
perience like mine.
In our back yard we had large ap-
pie tree that had outlived its useful
ness We had it cut down to within
five feet of the ground. Around it
planted Il Crimson Rambler rose bush,
which thrived beautifully. Last fall
noticed that the tree was completely
covered with large black ants. Can
anyone tell me how to get rid of them.

Not Salts, Oil or
Pills But 'Cascarets :
No Odds How Sick Your Stomach; How
Hard Your Head Aches or How
BiIious-Cascarets Make You
Feel Great.

Cascarets act as bowel tonic, not
rs an irritant. They are vegetable.
Their action is natural. Their effect is
the same as the effect of some foods.
They are gentle; no gripping. They are
pleasant; no dreading. They are con-
venient; no waiting.
The old way was castor OIL The
effect was to grease the bowels, and
for a single day Oil never causes the
bowel muscles to act. Other ways We're
pills, salts and cathartics. The effect
was the same as pepper in the nostrils.
They flooded the bowels with fluid.
Those fluids were digestive juices. And
the waste today means lack tomor-
row.
We knew that the method was
wrong. That the AFTER effects only
weakened the bowels. But we had no
gentle laxative in the old days. So we
waited as long as we could. then took
big dose Of physic. The method to-
DAY is to take one cascaret at time
just as soon as you need 1t. Then
the bowels are always clean. They
cost only 10 cents per box at any drug
store.

South Second avenue, at about s
o'clock Wednesday evening, badly dam
eyed the upper story OF the house and
destroyed part of the contents Of the
tenant Walter B. Ferries, an Iowa
Central engineer. The damage to the
building. which is insured may reach
$500. Probably about 500 worth Of
furniture and clothing belonging to the
tenants was burned. and on the con-
tents no insurance was carried. A part
Of one of the gables OF the house was
badly burned and the interior OF the
upper story caught on fire. Water did
some damage on the lower floor. The
furnishings damaged were in the sec
ond story, as the furniture in the lower
part of the house was got out. In help
ing to take out q mattress Mrs. Fer
ries, who was alone when the fire was
discovered, sprained her wrist and had
to call a physician. Owing to the high
wind from the south the flames spread
rapidly. The owner believes that the
fire was set by sparks from the cupola
of the foundry of the A. e. Shorthill
Company across the street Work of
molding was in progress at the time Of
the fire. Shorthill employees We're the
first to discover the blaze. and when
first noticeable it was very small.
Workmen with buckets of water. tried
to get into the house, but the front and
side doors were locked. Mrs. Ferries
was in the back part Of the house at
the time doing some baking and knew
nothing Of the fire until informed by
neighbors.
The Ferries came to this city last
September from Lafayette. Ind. They
had not yet got around to take out any
insurance, altho Mrs. Ferries had an
engagement with an insurance man for
Wednesday night. when she expected to
take out policy. Mrs. Ferries said
that there was no fire in the house ex-
cepting the gas range in the kitchen.
AS far as Chief Kirby could discover
there was nothing wrong with the cleo
