A wideawake proprietor of a soda
fountain in one of the downtown dis
tricts has invented drink which he
calls Bull Moose Hickey Mixed with
the Big Stick" No one has been
found who is able to tell just what tho
drink is composed of, but everyone
who has tasted agrees that it harmo
nizes with every tickling of the palate
and supplies perfect safety on thirst
producing day. 1t sells just a little
higher than some of the popular mixed
drinks and has color that is not easy
to describe.
The drink has made hit and even
Taft and Wilson sympathizers indulge
in 1t freely 1t is the only Bull Moose"
thing that they recommend, but they
do it most heartily.

WRINKLES.

| clipped the following from the
beauty page of d Sunday newspaper:
Wrinkles are caused by tired muscles
They are more easily prevented than
cured To remain wrinkleless woman must
have placid existence, free from emotion
Why, certainly. but
should like to see a picture of the
woman-except she be harem beauty
who is able to live placid existence,
free from emotion.
Emotion is woman's life
If it does not come to her she will
seek it. Woman lives in her heart
For that is the woman. And she can
not really live and escape her lot.
Only in childhood may one live
more or less placid life.
As young bride woman must face
the severe trials of a young house
keeper The process Of adjustment to
accompaniment of many tears. Woman
cannot quit her wifely task because Of
the muscle tire that causes wrinkles.
Free from emotion?
AS wife she must share the griefs
and divide the sorrows with her hus-
band. She cannot live the placid life
and let him tread the winepress alone.
She, too. must sometimes wrinkle her
brow.
The placid life?
AS mother she must suffer all the
pangs of motherhood. How can she
push away emotion when her heart
clutches in an agony Of anxiety
through the watches of the night for
her children's sake? And what cares
she for the coming of the wrinkles in
such time?
Moreover
What sort of woman would she be
did she escape the shocks of emotion:
She must be afmless. because tixed
purpose requires struggle. She must
be loveless. because love means self
sacrifice. ~
Do not misunderstood
Woman may escape needless worry
and useless striving. Modern woman
is learning how to rest her tired mus,
cles by reasonable relaxation.
But her world at best is hard one
And sooner or later the tired face will
show the wrinkles. ii
Let her not be ashamed.
The noblest faces you know are wrin-
kled faces. And every wrinkle tells its
story Of sacrifice and helpfulness
The sweetest face ever knew was a
wrinkled face The last time ] saw
that face it was in a coffin on which
were piled many flowers.
It was the face of mother.

physician says, Fun is food and as
necessary to wholesomeness as bread, :
Therefore laugh.
We take life too seriously. We do
not laugh enough. Or we indulge in
stingy sort of mirth. Some of US
laugh so seldom we lose the habit of it
A laugh is a massage.
Figures of speech aside. good laugh
is real massage treatment. When you
laugh heartily your diaphragm gets
busy. In moving rapidly up and down
it messages the liver, stirring that or
gan up to its duty. 1t affects other or

Laugh and grow fat" Is the shrewd
observation of many generations.
The old kings were wise. They hir-
ed testers to make them laugh. And
Lycurgus, able lawmaker. set up the
god of laughter In the public dining
rooms of Sparta.
Laughter is good buffer.
1t Is like the shock absorbers folks
put in the springs Of their automo-
biles. It helps to carry one easily
over the knobs and hank-you-ma'ms'
OF life's rugged road. And 1t reduces
friction everywhere.
Laughter Is normal.

propensities should be released. Laugh

TWO PICTURES.

In New York gallery recently, there
hung two pictures by the famous
Spanish painter Sprolla Y Bastida..
One was d picture of sunshine.
Valencian sea and shore are flooded
with the midday splendor of June
The sunburst falls In its brilliancy on
the bronzed faces Of fishermen arrayed
In their gorgeously colored plaid skirts.
The luminous brightness is reflected
from the shiny coats of oxen and
touches with gliding the white foamed
waves as they break ashore. 1t trans
forms the sails OF the fishermen's boats
into cloth OF gold The waters beneath
are illumined. The golden air holds
up purely azure sky.
You see at glance.
It is picture of sunshine and Of
peace and joy. But the companion pic
ture is different Beneath it is writ
ten:
"A Sad Inheritance"
There il no sunshine In this picture
Its prevailing color Is gray. It Is the
same sen and strand. but they stretch
cut to forbidding horizon. Grew
( some shadows Turk In the depths of the
dark waters. and over all the scene
bowers threatening sky.
That IL the background.
In the foreground are the nude fig
ures OF dozen afflicted boys come
down to take the sea air boys who
have inherited the curse of a sinful
parenthood Some Of the poor fellows
are hideously deformed; some are Grip
pies with pitifulIv enlarged joints. A
black ROBBED priest is helping dis
eased youth who Is on crutches. The
boys are inmates of refuge home for
waits innocent sufferers, the sins of
whose parents have brought them pain
and early DOOM
An awful picture!
You look and then you look away.
There is no need TO say to you. Look
upon this picture and then upon that. !"
The teaching is plain
Where righteousness and purity abide
there Is the earth filed with the sun
shine of peace ard happiness. Where
sin and unfaith and the sowing of wild
oats find place there the bright colors
turn to dun. the clouds lower. and the
horizon is dark and omsnous
This is the way the old book puts Il
IN plain. homely truism:
THE fathers have eaten sour grapes
and the children's teeth are set on
edge

Bedity. Somewhere back in the line Of
Darentage somebody has eaten SOU
