Unity.

Unity.
Heart of my heart, the world is young;
Love lies hidden in every rose!
Every song that the skylark sung
Once, we thought, must come to d
close;
Now we know the spirit of song,
Song that is merged in the chant Of
the whole,
Hand in hand as we wander along,
What should we doubt of the years
that roll?
Heart of my heart, we cannot die!
Love triumphant in flower and tree,
Every life that laughs at the sky
Tells us nothing can cease to be;
One, we are one with a song today,
One with the clover that scents the
world,
One with the stars, when earth
grows old
Heart of my heart, we are one with
the wind,
One with the clouds that are whirled
DER the lea,
One in many, o broken and blind
One as the waves are at one with
the sea!
Ay! when life seems scattered apart,
Darkens, ends as a tale that is told,
One, we are one, o heart of my heart
One still one, while the world grows
old. Alfred Noyes.

Women Gamble For High Stakes.

Many women are gamblers for very
high stakes They stake their health
and good looks upon everything work
ing out all right when attacked by
those ailments which, their sex alone
are called upon to suffer.
The only excuse can be ignorance
of the dangerous consequences or an
aversion to undergo medical examin-
alton. This may often be avoided by
recourse to Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
ctar lie Compound, a perfectly safe
and harmless remedy, compounded
from roo!s and herbs, which for
nearly forty years has been curing
American women from the worst
forms of female ills.

How French Market Coffee
Became the
National Drink Of the South!

shipments are made to every store hand
ling it, so that while other coffees may
stay on the grocers' shelves for some con-
siderable period before being sold, you
can always rely on French Market Coffee
being fresh stock and but short time
on the grocers' shelves, because it sells so
much quicker than any other coffee that
has ever been sold in the South.
Think what it means to you to be able
to go to any grocery store in the South,
order can of French Market Coffee and
be sure of obtaining this identical, famous
old blend, absolutely fresh from the won
derful French Market Mills, which were
built expressly to roast and perpetuate
the genuine French Market Coffee.
Approaching the honor the Southern
people have paid them-in making French
Market Coffee the National Drink of the
South-the directors of the French Market
Mills will continue to rigidly maintain
the standard of this famous old blend
which in future, as in the past, they guar
antee shall in every way be worthy of
its reputation as the National Drink of
the South.

For over a hundred years this coffee has
been known throughout America, because
French coffee, with all it's original flavor,
for over hundred years has been served
at the old French Market in New Orleans.
Andrew Jackson refreshed his troops
with it after his famous victory. Henry
Clay was entertained in the old Hotel
Royal nearby, when coffee from the French
Market was served. The beaus and bellies
of the old time Mardi Gras seasons always
adjourned to the old French Market at
midnight for coffee, for the peculiar fea-
ture of the old French Market blend is that
while mildly stimulating, it is always con-
sidered a healthful beverage to be drank
even at midnight.
Naturally this old blend of coffee, which
could be had nowhere else but at the
French Market, became famous through
out America But it was not until the
invention of acknowledgement pack
age, a comparatively few years ago, and
the establishment of the French Market
Mills to roast this identical blend by
ecial machinery, that this coffee could
lie shipped all over the United States.
At once the demand for this coffee
spread throughout the South, for in most
houses in almost every town in the South
there is someone who has heard of this
famous old blend, through their parents
or grandparents. Today, in almost every
section of the South, you will find French
Market Coffee has a tremendous sale.
SO much so that the stores handling it
are always able to deliver it fresh to their
customers, becausethe demand for French
Market Coffee is SO great that frequent

LONDON. June 1S.-The same RI
valry of costume which marked the
opening day Of the fashionable Ascot
race meeting was apparent to-day on
even a grander scale. In spite of the
word which had gone forth from
Queen Mary that she would look with
disapproval upon freaksh costumes
in the royal pavilion, many of the
smart set inner court circles defied
the edict
Many women had their hair pow
dered white and wore big patches of
cOurtplasteT, after the fashion of the
days of Charles H. The Partisan cos
tunes included skirts slashed unusu-
ally high and brilliantly decorated
hosiery. Another new style is the
crazy quilt frOck, which consists
of as many COlors as Joseph's coat.
The Cubist sunshade also made its
appearance. 1t is a decided shock to
the eye. Ostrich plumes are coming
into their own again. according to
the fashionable, although ii is doubt
full if they will ever supplant flowers
as hat trimmings in Queen Mary's
estimation.
Following the fashion set at Chan
tilly, where women appeared with ca
naries in gold cages, women took pets
of all kinds to the race meeting. One
dOWager carried a parrot upon her
arm. To prevent its flight it was
IA stoned to her waist with a gold
chain. Angora cats and other pets
also were seen.

"A most pleasant surprise has been

wonderful thing, because it gives men

The costumes of the women were
exquisite and bore the Partisan

those thousands and thousands OF
people at a polo match. In England
the middle and lower classes take
little or no interest, as it is par eX-

Moreover none can enter any Of
the polo grounds without a voucher
