No process is so fatal as that which
would cast all men in one mold. Every
human being is intended to have a
character of his own, to be what no
other is, to do what no other can do.
Our common nature is to be unfolded
in unbounded diyersities. 1t is rich
enough for infinite manifestations. 1t
is to wear innumerable forms of beau
ty and glory. Every human being has
a work to carry on within, duties to
perform abroad, influences to exert,
which are peculiarl his, and which no
conscience but his own can teach
Charming.

GOOD REASON FOR HIS HURRY
Government Employe Bound by Con-
siderations Apart From the
Ordinary Man.

It was on an occasion when a presl'
dent of the United States was making
a swing around the country. A man
who was carrying the mail on week
" route between a Missouri county
seat town and little postOfiice out at
a country store came dashing madly
down the road in the direction of the
town. A farmer who saw him coming
and wondered at his great haste, halt
ed him and said:
What's the matter, Jimson? What's
your great hurry this morning."
"Hurry?" Unison repeated, why,
don't you know The president is to be
in town today?"
ooh, l see" the farmer replied. you
want to get there in time to see him"
IT'S not that that makes me hurry"
st ANTE
mo. sir! You may not know it, but
this working for the government is
mighty ticklish business, and man
has got to be awful careful, or he'll
lose his job. Now suppose the presi.
dent gets off the train down there and
asks about me and I amt there, and
he finds out I'm late. Don't you see
there'd be trouble right off, and
might be asked to resign?"

chances. When the president steps
off the train and asks the crowd
Where is Jimson?' I'm going to be
there. so I can step right out and say;

What Susie Was,

The Mexican was showing his new
~ arrived New York guest to a room,
and after the usual courtesies he
paused on the threshold to say: "By
the way, We always turn Susie loose
for the night, and she will pass
through the hall on her way to the
top floor, where she catches rats.
You'd better be careful and not step
on her, as that is the only thing that
makes her cross"
1T wouldn't be very serious if I did

ing response. But the host shook his
head.
Il don't know much about CATS" he
said. Our Susie is a boa constructor.
She's as gentle as a baby, unless you
step on her. Sometimes she takes a
short cut through this room, so don't
be surprised if You see her. Good

AT special meeting of the Board of
Managers Of the Frederick City Hospital
Association, the contract for the installa-
ton Of a modern laundry equipment in
The laundry building Just erected by the

The contract was given TO the Colum
bia Laundry Company, Of Columbia, Pa

washer, and extractor, one 100 inch
nangle, soap and starch kettles. There
is also considerable of the equipment in
the present laundry which will be moved

her in others. If happiness is to be the
result of the union, the first business of
the husband is to manage himself so as
to keep himself always his wife's re-
spectfu friend, always her tender lover,
always her superior protector. This will
necessarily stimulate the wife to be
always an admiring friend, always an
atfeCtionate sweet heart, always thrifty
house wife. and always confiding ward.
And this will so react upon the husband
that his love for his wife will grow so as
to make it easy for the husband with all
of his faults, to bear with the infrmities
OF his one and only wife"
Old tunes are the sweetest and the old
friends are the best.
A sunny disposition is to be chosen

American wildcat skins the difference
in color and markings was very no
