LUCK AND FATE.

The literatures of all lands are rich
in proverbs telling us how large a
part luck and fate play in human lives.
That there is much truth in them can
not be doubted. But it is a truth that
is easily capable of exaggeration. 1t
is doctrine that, if implicitly believ,
ed, might make idlers of us all or
mere automatons.
1t is a dangerous doctrine for the
young, who should be made to know
instead that whatever may be the fate
or luck in store for them, their real
success and their true happiness can
come only from and through their own
worth and efforts. Fate or luck may
make a man rich or put him in high
place, but the character, the develop
ment, the self-respect and the love
and trust of others, which constitute
within himself.
Fate is treacherous and soon betrays
those who depend upon it. 1t helps
only those determined to help them
selves.
Luck, too, is faithless and laughs al
the man who too strongly puts his
trust in it. 1t generously spreads &
golden glow upon the accomplishment
of the man who does for himself, bu
for the man who does not strive it has
mockery.
There is no worse belief than thai
in fate and luck to make you failure
in life.
1t puts one in wholly wrong atti
tude toward life.
1t paralyzes your energies.
Don't believe there is any fate fol
you except that which you make foI
yourself.
Hope for no luck that you are no
worthy of and have not earned.

THE DREAM-SHIP.

A sweet little ship stole up from
the South
With a cargo of baby dreams;
OF dolls and kittens and warm
little mittens,
And rose-colored peppermint
creams;
A wee wind waited it on its way,
And 1t sailed along, at the end of
a day.
Down the sleep streets where the
lights were lit,
To leave each child some wonder
full bit
"Oh, hush, little child, if you want
a dream,
You must close your eyes-ah,
yes!
For the dream-ship carries a gift
for you
More lovely than you could
guess;
Perhaps a moon will shine all day,
Perhaps a gown of color gay.
Or a queer little fish
In a silver dish
Sail away, little boat, and away"
Miriam S. Clark, in July st.
Nicholas.

was spent socially and with games.
The hostesses had provided many in
teresting contests. Each guest was
presented with an April fool cap orna-
mented with bells. Inside was fas-
tened little note telling the member
of some act which they must do before
the afternoon came to a close. Favors
were given for the contests. They
went to Mrs. Hasty, Mrs. Richards,
and Mrs. Chrisman. The order of Civ
ing fayors was reversed. The one
getting the lowest number was given
the Grst prize, while the one getting
the highest was given the BOBBY
favor. An imitation plum pudding
also featured the afternoon. There
were ribbons for each guest. At a
given signal they were pulled and
each guest got a stone on which was
written sold" A delicious luncheon
was served in the dining room. The
favors were sticks of red candy fas
tened with bells and ribbons. The
next meeting of the club will be in a
| fortnight with Mrs. Bert Schirmeyer
at her home in East Main street and
will be thimble party.

QUIT CALOMEL!
Thousands Are Turning from This
Dangerous Drug.
A Safe Vegetable Substitute Is Olive
Tablets for the Liver.

DIR. F. NJ. Edwards, a prominent
physician of Ohio, has discovered a
new laxative and liver toner in a COM
bination of vegetable materials, mix
ed with olive oil, which is in effect al
most exactly like the old and untrust-
worthy calomel, except that there
are none of the bad after effects of
calomel
DR.. Edwards has long been foe of
calomel, though he recognized its value
along with its dangers.
His distrust of the uncertain drug
eventually started him years ago to-
wards experiments with the view Of
discovering a substitute, and he is to.
day in possession of the long-sought-
for combination, which is in the shape
of little sugar-coated, olive-oil color
ed tablet.
The results of II years experience
and practice are embodied in these
marvellous little tablets.
They are called DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets. They oil the bowels. and their
effect on the liver has been the means
of relief to many of DR.. Edwards regu
lar patients as well as to thousands
of others who have suffered and were
afraid of calomel
They are gentle in their action, yet
always effective. They bring about
that exuberance of spirit, that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of harmful i'm
purities. Ice and 25c per box

WASH SILK,

The soft wash silk shirt waist is
made more or less plain, according to
the figure that it's wearer possesses.
For those who are plump the plainest
models are chosen. But shoulders are
long and so are the sleeves.
The neck of these waists is finished
with a turnover collar and tie. The
collar is soft and rather high at the
back Cuffs are turned back, and link
buttons are worn with some of them
BY way of little frivolity, jabots
of net or lace provide a finishing
touch which seems superfuous with
the four-ir<hand tie, but is neverthe-
less in evidence.
When made up for a slender figure
these waists are set to yoke in the
back and fulled into the shoulder
seam in front. The collars are widen
ed.
Soft waists of crepe cloth are made
plain with long sleeves and wide sail
or collars as we'll as in the regulation
designs just described. Turn-back
cuffs are often finished with crystal
buttons These waists are opened at
the throat.
