AS is often the case. Mrs. GaSkelPs'
serious literary work was the result
of sorrow. Her only son died in his
youth and she turned in this bereave-
ment to her husband for his advice.
He knew she enjoyed writing and
that she had succeeded in finding
publisher for several short articles
and sketches. SO he advised her to
take up writing as a means of for
getting her personal sorrow. The re-
suit was MARY Barton" which she
sent to a publisher. and then. in the
duties of her household. forgot all
about" What was her surprise and
10y little later when she received a
notice from her publisher that he
would give her $500 for the copyright
"a sum which seemed to Mrs Gaskell
to be large fortune. AS it turned
out, the good fortune was all with the
publisher. for the book met with i'm
mediate and spectacular success, and
it went through many editions.

When my opinion was asked could
only reply that the motions were
both inartistic and imbecile- This
opinion was not understood by my

translated 1t like this:
This here knockheimer says that

the baseball or football grounds with
broken limbs or SCARED face? When
none of these things happen, what
had you to compensate for the hours
of mental anguish, with consequent
lowering of vitality and physical
tone? Such useless imaglnings of
evil make many women old and hag-
gard before their time.
With fearsome and anxious mothers
surrounding children with an atmos-
phere of dread and suggesting to
them new and unthought-of objects
of fear II is not astonishing that the
whole world seems burdened and
bowed down under a fearful weight
Of fear and anxiety. Go into almost
any gathering, no matter how gay
and happy the crowds seem to be,
you will find, If you question any one
Of even the gayest, that the canker-
worm of fear gnaws at the heart IN
some form. The fear of accident, OF
sickness. of poverty, OF death, OF
some terrible misfortune still fingers
during the greatest apparent gaiety.
Thousands of people thus pass their
lives under the shadow of fear,
haunted by the dread of some vague,
impending evil.
How pitiful are the anxious,
wrinkled faces, the gray hairs, the
unhappy expression OF those who
worry about possible misfortunes!
Not one wrinkle in a thousand,
not one gray hair in a million,
has been produced by actual ills. The
things which turn hair gray and
plough fair faces with cruel burrows.
which rob the step of elasticity and
take buoyancy from life are bridges
that never were crossed, misfortunes
that never came. The sorrows and
trials which actually come to us are,
except In rare instances, trif1ing,
compared with the things about which
we worry, but which never come to
pass.
What a waste of energy and human
| life is involved in this pernicious
habit of anticipating evil. Think Of
the amount of work you could have
accomplished by the mental and phys
ical force you have expended IN fear
ing what might happen-but which
did not Think of the wasted hours
in which you planned what you would
do if misfortune should come!
If we could only rid ourselves of
| imaginary troubles, our lives would
| be infinitely happier and healthier.
| Thus one of the greatest tasks In
| character building is to eliminate. to
uproot, to wipe out completely the
| baleful effects of fear in all its va
rieties of manifestation. No one can
lead a naturally healthy, sunny, help
| full, harmonious life while living in q
| fear environment. No one can hope
to be entirely happy and successful
without the destruction, the eradica-
| ton, of the fear germs.

The socialist party at Deming is
busted wide open, and the head social
ist has been ex communicated and fired
from the order. The lodge wasgnot so
very large hut as mighty select. Jim
Tracy was the chief mogul of the com
bination and Roy Bedecheck was the
rest Of it. For years S. Lindauer has
wanted to be member but every time
his application was voted on he
was blackballed, the other mem
bers knowing that if he once got
inside the line he would soon be in COM
plete control, and they would have to
work for him. 1t was the custom of
the order at the monthly meeting for
each member to show how much he had
earned the previous month, and then
social settlement would be made, so
that all hands would be on an equality
Tracy lived in the country, on his al.
falfa farm, while ''Bedecheck lived in
town in his bungalow. Tracy did not
spend as much as Bedecheck, and 80 in
course Of time he accumulated stake,
or surplus, or some unearned incre-
ment, whatever the proper term may
be, and recently he turned this into a
motor car He had II sent out to the
farm and told no one,about it. He
practised with the machine down in the
back lots till he could catch and run
over chicken three times out of four.
At the last monthly meeting he drove
up to the front door of the lodge in
great style. About half a block be-
fore he got there he spied Bedecheck's
yellow dog in the street, he gave the
machine little more gas and run the
mutt down. When Bedeckecx found
that Tracy had motor car there was
a row. He accused him of holding out
on the rest Of the order. When Tracy
explained that he had b9ught the car
with the money saved after the regu-
lar division Bededeck was hotter than
ever, as it is against both the consti.
tutson and bylaws to save anything.
Bedecheck offered to forgive him if he
could have the use of the car every
other week, and Tracy told him to 20
where 1t was hotter than II ever gets in
Deming, except during the summer
months. This was too much. Bede-
check issued recall, referendumed
him, and publicly disfranchised poor
old Tracy, just because he could not
ride in Tracy's machine. 1t is sad to
see political career thus ended. S,

Shark Oil Is Used

1t is a known fact that some cod liver
oil from the warmer fishing banks is
adulterated with oil from the shark and
haddock, and sold in many places for
medicinal purposes. Unfortunately this
fact is not known by small producers
who procure it in good faith from a
jobber who in turn purchased it from a
dealer, etc, ETC., with the ultimate re-
suit that the consumer is the real suf-
ferer.
There is one way, however, to be alb
solutely sure that this popular medicinal
oil is of superior undefiled quality and
that is by following physicians example
and insisting on the pure, genuine
Scott's Emulsion, the makers of which
import their oil direct from the northern
coast of Norway in sealed metal con-
tainers, and the oil is then tested to
insure its purity.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease and prescribed local rem
edies, ana by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment Halls
