PEACE

How beautiful is night the balmest sigh.
Which vernal zephyrs breathe in evenings ear,
We're diScord TO the speaking quietude
That wraps the moveless Heavens ebon vault
Studded with stars Hnuttery bright,
Through which the moons uncouded grandeur rolls,
Seems like canopy which Love had spread,
To curtain her sleeping world.
Yon gentle hills,
Robed in garment of untrodden snow;
GoR darksome rocks whence icicles depend.
So stainless. that their white and glitterng spires
Tinge not the moons pure beam: yon casted steep,
Whose banner hangeth DER the time-worn tower
So idly. that rapt fancy deemeth it
\ metaphor of peace; all form a scene, g..
Where musing solitude might love to lift
Her soul above this sphere of earthliness:
Where silence, undisturbed, might watch alone
So cold, so bright, so still.

GOOD SUGGESTION FOR EMMY
Some May Insist, However, That 1t Is
Possible She Didn't Need the
Exercise.

Emmy brought in an armful Of wood
for the fire.
my DEAR" said her husband, you
shouldn't do that"
She lifted the heavy case OF berries
to the table and sat down to look them
over.
I'D help you If l wasn't waiting for
Bates to come over and look at the
new filly."
The grocer's boy deposited dollars
worth Of sugar on the floor and Emmy
took it up and put it in the sugar pail
on the lower pantry shelf.
You really shouldn't" said her hus-
band.
Finally she logged the iron preserve
kettle to the sink Tor the last time and
went out for another pail Of water.
Il hate to see you lift so, Emmy.
My, how many glasses have you got?
It's my favorite jam. I'll get you a
case of cherries tomorrow"
Emmy went on getting up a hearty
supper.
Seems as il you didn't eat much, "
commented her husband. Don't you
want to walk down with me tonight
while l finish that rubber with Stet-
son? The exercise will do you good"

TWO WAYS OF KEEPING LENT
Billy Sunday Tells Of One Of Them
In an Anecdote That Is
Worth While.

Billy Sunday, the evangelist, to
whom all Philadelphia has been hit
ting the sawdust TRAIL" was talking
about Lent
"Lent?" he said, throwing up his
arm as if about to pitch ball. well,
boys, there's lots of humbug about
Lent Sincere Lent keeping is a good
thing, mighty good thing; but the
other kind"
With a light leap he landed in a
sitting posture on his reading desk
Seated there, his legs swinging com
fortably, he went on:
We'll, the other kind reminds me
of . fat old party who said:
" yonsarn this war! Turtles gone
up, oysters have gone up, trout's gone
up. wines gone up, canvas-back ducks
gone up and beers gone up. With
things in such a condition | hardly
see where a mans to get the money
to cele-er-I mean to keep Lent
on"

WONDERFUL HOW RESINOL
STOPS ITCHING At ONCE

To those who have endured for years
the itching torments of eczema or other
such skin-eruption. the relief that the
first use Of resinol ointment and res
mol soap gives is perfectly incredible.
After all the suffering they have
endured and all the useless treatments
they spent good money for, they can.
not believe anything so simple, mild
and inexpensive can stop the itching
and burning INSTANTLY! And they
find it still more wonderful that the
improvement is permanent and that
resinol really drives away the erup-
ton completely in a very short time
Perhaps there is a pleasant surprise
like this in store for you. Resinol oint-
ment and resinol soap are sold by all
druggists.-Adv.

Old Dick was a plantation darby.
He was rarely sick, and he always
claimed it was due to the way he had
lived. One day as he was walking
down the street a local merchant,
taking advantage of his ignorance, &C.
costed him thus:
''Dick, one of your best friends has
just told me that you have ancestors
of the worst Sort"
"Now, look heah, Cap'in Gawg, l
doan want to hurt nobody, but jes'
want to know who dat man was wot

ONLY THE LITERAL TRUTH
Stories Sounded Like Those Of Baron
munehausen, But They Were
Actual Happenings.

Some men, dressed in civilian
clothes, gathered together in the smok-
ing room Of the hotel, discussing the
joys and sorrows of life at the front.
We'll, I've been with the army and
had very interesting time," said one.
Ever get really alone with the en-
emy?" asked another.
Rather! l once took two of their
officers"
"Unaided?"
"Of course! And the very next day
took eight men!"
"All wounded, / expect" sneered a
listener. You didn't get hurt, did
you?"
Just slight scratch, that's all. And
two days after took transport wag-
on, and followed up that by taking a
big gun"
Sir" said a disagreeable auditor,
Il have seen some of the finest speci-
mems of anything you can call to
mind, but / wish to state that you are
the biggest romancer that ever trod
this earth"
"Oh, no, am not that" replied the
hero; but l am a photographer"

injured by automobiles or street cars
on their way to church or to the parks

NICE SUNDAYS TO WALK.-Poor
Chicago, church doors thrown open
as bars shut down!
The only pleasure workingman
has is to take his family for a walk.
Maybe he will bring them home again
alive and maybe not. The rich, of
course, should worry. They have
machines and can knock down few
of those common people. Of course,
our police are too busy clubbing the
strikers who are fighting for their
rights to watch for speeders.
Mayor Thompson, once you bum
coed the people, but if the people are
wise they will not pay any attention
to the bunk printed on paper around
election time. If the saloons are
closed on the Sabbath why not stop
the street cars? Give the conductor,
motorman, printer, cook, maid,
chauffeur, butcher, fireman, tele-
phone operator and every living NOR
tai rest. l suppose this will seem
impossible, but why only think of
the saloons? Why not give every one
a chance to go to church if the Sab
bath is to be recognized in Chicago.
There is no sympathy for working
man. He can slave all week. Come
home evenings, have supper and then
go to bed and rest his weary bones
so he is able to work the next day.
Then on Sunday, if he does not want
to sit with his family in some Stuffy
church he must either stay at home
and look at four walls or walk the
streets and dodge autos.
Give our Chicago policemen a
chance to go to church, too. They
know that there is a Sabbath, but at
present they must protect the mil
ionaire's home and his sweatshops
