"You see,' said the man who was
showing us round the grove. every
one of these trees is the product of
grating the bough Of sweet orange
onto the stock of sour one"
whats that? the Winter Guest ex-
claimed.
Our guide repeated his remark and
the clear blue eyes Of this interrogater
Widened.
The most of us only beheld the sur
face of the things we saw and heard
in life; but had discovered that he was
accustomed to look below.
" You seem surprised we said, to
draw him out.
Surprised! he exclaimed, "why
not? l never knew that fact before,
and anyway, can never hear that
word graft without feeling something
like goose flesh"
We thought that perhaps he was a
Reformer and had recalled some strug-
gle with THE Gang" in the city where
he lived.
But no, as usual, his reflections had
"a moral drift.
Just think of it," he went on.
what a marvellous transformation
must take place, when the sap that
flows through the veins of that sour
orange root (the instant that it passes
the junction Of the different plants) is
turned to sweetness! What makes
that change?

like schoolboys who had been sud
denly asked a question about lesson
we had not studied because we were
watching the clock and wishing its
hands would hurry round, so that We
could get out of doors and play that
rubber" game of baseball
"Of course you dout know, for no
body does" the Winter Guest continu-
ed. And that is what makes it so won
derful. Did you ever hear the story
of that college boy whom the pro-
fessor asked what electricity was"

piled. Good God, what pity" the
professor exclaimed. THE only man
in the world who ever knew what
electricity is, has forgotten. Nobody
ever forgot what makes the juice of
one kind of tree produce the fruit OF
another, for nobody ever knew! But
it stirs thoughtful spirit to its depth,
to run across such cases. A hooking
bird swallows a worm and turns it into
a song; the bulk of a water lily turns
the mud of a river bottom into
bloom of exquisite beauty; a word of
kindness changes burglar or muir
derer into hero or a saint; you graft
a little twig from a sweet tree onto
the root of a sour one and get fruit
that would make the teeth of an angel
water!"

interrupted; but a frown of disap-

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, an
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cur
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in it's curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for
any case that it fails to cure. Send for

CHILDREN HATE OIL,
CALOMEL AND PILLS
California Syrup of Figs"
best for tender stom-
ach, liver and
bowels.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How
you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it s different. Moth
ers who cling to the old form of physic
simply don't realize what they do. The
children's revolt is well-founded. Their
tender little 'insides" are injured by
them.
If your child's stomach, liver an d
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they. know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweeten
the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves sick child tomor-
row.
Ask your druggist for 50-cent bot
tie of California Syrup of Figs, which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown ups plainly
on each bottle. Beware Of counter
feits sold here. See that it is made by
California Fig Syrup Company" Re-
fuse any other kind with contempt.

The word "chattels' is Of French
origin and means goods of any kind.
Chattels were originally divided into
real and personal chattels.
Chattels real were property an
nexed to or concerning real estate,

sonal chattels were such things as
were movable, as animals, jewelry,
grain, machinery, goods and property
of like kind. Chattel mortgages
were not in u.s. as early a. real es-
tate mortgages, and the reason is
that at first all property Of value

The first ~ Of personal property

was by putting the property up as
