Pretty Glove Case.

To make pretty glove case take
long, narrow box and pad it care
fully inside and out. Arrange the
Madding so that it is quite fiat round
the upper part Of the outside Of the
box in order that the lid can be
slipped on easily.
Then pad the lid on the outside
only. The cotton wool that is placed
on the inside of the box should be
sprinkled with sachet powder.
Next covdr the box tightly with
nauslig1, and ,.er tbs fx the outer
cover of white satin.
Before placing the latter over the
i'd, however, embroider a large
lovers knot in the center Of the ma
terial. Then work an initial in the
middle of each bow.
A knot in pale pink or old rose
color, with the initials in a deeper
shade, would be very effective.
Another idea would be to have the
knot in pale blue silk with silver
thread initials. This would look ex-
ceedingly handsome when finished

STREET IMPROVEMENTS ALSO.

The first step toward municipal
improvements for the town of Scot
land Neck in the way of waterworks
and paved streets was initiated
Wednesday morning when the town
commissioners met and listened to
the proposition set forth for these
improvements by the representative
Of the J. B. McCrary Company, Mr..
H. w. Lovine, the company's pro-
moter.
After listening to the promoters

the company's headquarters to make
a plat Of the proposed waterworks
district, estimate the cost of sewer
ing the same, and compile informa-
ton relative to such improvements
for the enlightenment of the citizen
ry of the town, to justify their vote
one way or the other, the commits
sioners unanimously voted in favor
of the proposition as set forth by
Mr.. Lovine.
An engineer will be hurried here
| at once who will make the survey
| and estimate the cost of installing a
! modern water system. An estimate
| will also be furnished for paving the
streets and thoroughfares of the
town.
Mr.. LOvine agreed to send an en-

Of this service were the recitatlons

The Irish Newspaper Man.

Whatever is in the Irish mind is
available on the instant, so that the
Irish rarely fail to do themselves
justice. They keep their best foot
forward, ard if they fall, they light
on their feet. They succeed as law
yers, not only because they can play
upon the jury, but because they are
quick in thrust and parry. They
abound in newspaper Offices. because
their imagination enables them to
keep in touch with the public
mind. The 1rishman rarely attains
the thorough knowledge of the Ger
man physician; but he makes his
mark as surgeon because he is quick
to perceive and to decide when the
knife discloses a grave, unsuspected
condition.
The 1rishman accepts the Erse
proverb: Contention is better
than loneliness His nature goes
out to the other fellow all the time,'
declares a wise priest. The lodge
meeting Of Hibernian benevolent
association is revelation of kind
ness and delicacy Of feeling in rough,
toil-worn men. A great criminal
lawyer tells me that if he has a des-
perate case to defend, he keeps the
cold-b!ooded Swede off the jury and
gets an lrishman on, especially one
who has been ''in trouble ''If
you want money to advance a prin-
ciple," says an observer, go among
the Scandinavians; if you want mon
ey to relieve suffering, go among the
Irish. PROF. E. A. Ross, in April

HEALTH PAST Fifty

Careful diet is of utmost Importance to
men and women past fifty years of age;
it keeps up their strength, and the oil
food in Scott's Emulsion is nour1sh1ng
food, curative medicine and a sustaining
tonic to regulate the functions.
It contains the medicinal fats OF pure
cod liver oil and science proves that they
furnish twice as much energy as other
foods-then too, it creates pure blood,
sharpens the appetite, relieves rheun1a-
tism, strengthens the body and allev1ates
the ailments due to declining years.
Scott's is free from wines, alcohol or
harmful drugs. Beware of substitutes.

A group Of men alone are
rogues.
There is nothing more divine
than the comradship of a man
and a woman mentally mated.
They double their joys and
halve their sorrows by sharing
them.
Moving at like pace, they
move forward hand in hand.
Under these conditions eve
rything is beautiful to them.
Even hardships take on a new
view, and become opportuni-
ties for heroic endurance.
Only lovers laugh. Others
grin and bear it, and some
there be who bear it, but are
unable to grin.
Joyous and jaunty labor is
beautiful. but labor sullen and
sour eats out the heart, slants
the brow, and puts lime in the
bones. More than that, mel
ancholia is contagious. | have
seen fear pollute a factory and
put business to the bad.
A little love and laughter
would have saved it.
When you relax and laugh
YOU eliminate dead tissue.
When you clutch and hold you
harbor toxins.
Yes, men need women and
women need men.
To mate and be loyal to your
mate is divine-also it is natur-
al.
For that which is natural is
divine. The divine manifests
itself through man.
Promiscuity is perversion,
and it's end is dissolution. dis
ease, death and the grave.
That which God has joined
together no man can put asun-
der.
That which God has not join
ed man should not try to rivet
together.
