SACRED TO TENDER MEMORY
Sunday Night Sparkling a Time Of
Joy That Leaves Its impression
on the Heart.

The Sunday night sparkling is a
sacred institution, the Manchester
Mirror and American remarks.
But for it, life would be at a GER
tain age not worth living, and race sui
eide would become indeed a matter
Of serious apprehension.
The man who has not tender mem
cries of taking his girl home from SUM-
day evening service and going in for
"a little while" is apt to be a crusty
bachelor, hating women because he
never knew n in her most charming
attitude.
The man whose youth was never
mellowed by a Sunday night kiss.
stolen from not too unwilling lips, has
missed half his life.
Half? Yes, nine-tenths!
The Sunday nights when the fire
burned low-and the lamp, too-hold
a hallowed place in the memories Of
every normal life. The low fire and
the low light have cast a softened
glow that reaches all the way to the
grave.
They who are grown old and heart
hardened may e at it now and
think that young hearts should be
calloused as old ones are; but time
was with all of US when we looked
forward through the seven days Of the
week to Sunday night as the golden
time of the week.
And our fathers did it. And our
grandfathers. And our great-grand-
fathers. 1t is an ancient human GUS
tom that did not originate with our
W youth or fail with it. The chill
dren do it in spite Of our frowns.
And our grandchildren will. And our
great-grandchildren. Generations come
and go, but Sunday night sparkling
remains.

all kinds of green things that one
should have a salad at least once a
day upon the table.
The reason for the cause of indi-

often due to the combination as the
manner in which 1t is masticated.
Sour cream with a bit Of sugar,

An exceedingly chic little coat and

Raby's Bonnet.

To fasten baby's bonnet get a yard
OF satin or taffeta ribbon about three
inches wide and make a small bow
on each end. There should be about
five inches of ribbon between the
bows. Fasten one bow securely to
the bonnet and sew a hook on the
under side of the other bow. Then
sew an eye on the bonnet and be sure
it is sewed ever with the opposite
bow.

For the seamstress.

II you want to run a sewing ma
chine all day and not tire, try putting
one foot forward and the other back
of the pedal. AS this is a more natu-
raj motion than we have when both
feet move side by side, as they so
often do, or when the work is done
by one foot alone, it is well worth try
ing. Use a comfortable chair and low
enough to bring your work fairly near
your eyes and make STOPPING unneces-
sary. This may seem awkward at first,
but you will find that your sewing will
be much easier.

She Looked Worn and Haggard.

gone out into the garden, Leasing
lingering behind to settle Mrs. Bren-
ner in her chair and put the knitting
needles in her lap. Then he hurried
out.
Madge was waiting for him! That
was a blunt way of putting it, and
yet he knew that the same instinct
of understanding which had always
bound them together had sen her
alone to that arbor beneath the chest
nuts. The night was dark; he could
only see her white dress shining. He
went softly toward her.
Dearest" he whispered, taking her
by the hands, 81 love you. viii you
be my wife?"
Eyes," she whispered, and pressed
her lips to his. And then he found
himself looking into Edith's dark eyes.
1t was well for his training that
he had been schooled in a difficult
world. He did not start or betray
himself. He linked her arm through
his and they started back toward the
house together.
And, at the door, stood Madge and
Carter.
Aren't you coming OUT" Carter
began; and then the sight Of Less
ing's face checked him.
II want to tell you ALL" said Less
ing, that Edith has promised to be
my wife,"
He kissed her again at the foot of
the stairs and went up to his room.
He sat for hours In his chair,
thinking. All the rules of his breed
ing told him that the mistake must
never be acknowledged. To ask a
woman to be ones wife and then to
tilt her was an objectionable offense
In his code. He knew Edith had al.
ways cared a little for him; in the
old days there had been a little jeal-
ousy between the girls on that &C.
count. But the thought of Madge and
what he had lost, the look of sur
prise upon her face at the announce
ment-these things made life seem
intolerable. And Edith loved him.
There was no possibility of misunder
standing what that expression haG
meant when she kissed him.

skeleton Solves old Mystery.

Ukiah, Cal.-The recent finding of
the body of Samuel Watt, a pioneer,
trapper, guide and soldier, who was
killed by a jealous Indian near here
in 1870, solves the mystery of its dis
position. Instead Of being thrown
into the river, as was thought. the
Indian pitched the body down a 200
foot crevasse, where the skeleton was
discovered by a boy hunter a few days
ago. The skeleton dropped into a
natural cave where it was preserved.

Methodist Episcopal church in ses-

not have pleased the people of La

Rev. Mendenhall is one of the

on this charge and under his lead
ership the church has prospered in
every way and the whole com
munity has been benefited by his
work. The people of the town and
community, as well as the church
membership, are to be congratulated
on having Rev. Mendenhall and
his estimable wife and daughter
remain with us another year.

ness firms there will be no credit
business done in Laclede after Nov
emher l, in dry goods, groceries,
hardware and furniture or any
thing else these firms handle. We
do not assume to speak for other
citizens of the town or surrounding
country but this arrangement suits
The BLADE exactly. In the future
when these merchants submit copy
for advertisement or job printing
they will simply pin a check cover
ing the amount of the order to the
copy and relieve this Office of any
bookkeeping connected with the
transaction and also give us ready
money to turn back to them for
household supplies. We do be-
lieve, however, that if this arrange
ment could be carried out between
all citizens it would benefit all
concerned and would make savers
out of many who now spend more
than their income through the
credit system. The habitual credit
customer is never a profitable Gus
toner as every man who has been
in the retail business will testify.
If these six business men succeed
in putting this community on a
cash basis and eliminating the
credit system from their houses
they will certainly in time be look
ed upon as public benefactors.
Their announcement will be watch
ed with interest.
