l.
When the rain and the lonely night
begin
There are ghosts at the door, and
call them in;
And one is the ghost of Love laid low
Under the lilies of Long Ago;
Too pure and sweet for a world like
this
Where the thorn's blood crimsons the
roses kiss
The love as deep as Heaven is high:
Memorys music and Memory's sigh.
This is the ghost Of Love that-stands
At the Door of Life when the lonely
lands
Are whelmed in the Night when
the dark descends
And even the Stars are like lost
friends
Spirits 20 whom no grace is given,
That cannot find their way in Heaven!
O ghost Of Love! O dream of, Light!
Come in, come in from the Homeless
Night.
Come in, from the Night and the
phantom-ways,
With the CLEANS and dreams of the
golden days!
The world is so weary, the Night is 50
long,
And the break O. the hearts in the soul
O. The song.
This is your haven, and this your own
place
With the tears Of the years falling
over Loves face
| shall hold you in peace, after part
ing and pain.
Till GODS Voice shall call you to
Heaven again.

MIRROR RoUTS A WILD HOG
Animal Is Scared by Reflection Of
Glass in West Virginia

fear of wild hogs for their own like

Wild hogs which exist in the noun
tains of Randolph county came down
into the foothills and charged into the
home of Sanford Phillips, upsetting
furniture and attacking Phillips two
year-old son.
The animals had torn nearly all the
clothing from the child when he ran
into a corner, where a big mirror
hung. The hogs followed, but soon
stopped when they beheld their like
ness in the big glass. Only a second
did they hesitate, however, then
turned, plunging from the house back
up the mountainside. The child was
only slightly injured.

If you will save the cork from every
empty bottle before it is thrown out

will soon have enough shapes and

what you will need at a drug store.
In addition to corks, you must have
some cardboard, some worsted, beads,

very sharp knife.

of two tapered corks. with the small

this in a slot cut across the end of

Leaps to Fire Escape, Gains Vacant

waiter and Is Nabbed in
Another House.

New York.-"Upstairs, downstairs
and in my lady's chamber" wasn't a
circumstance to the route taken by
William Watson, captured in a yell
ing, fighting, running, climbing, jump
ing chase, and charged with burglary
at the West One Hundred and Seven
ty-seventh street police station.
When Henry C. Sonnemann, saloon
keeper at Audubon avenue and One
Hundred and Seventy-eighth street,
returned to his apartment on the third
floor at No. SIG West One Hundred
and Seventy-eighth street he found
the outer door locked and strange
noises coming from within.
Leaps to Fire Escape.
Sonnemann broke in the door with
his shoulder and made for the bath
room. Watson, who had climbed out
on the window sill there, when the
outer door crashed inward, made a
wild leap for the fire escape, six feet
away and nearly thirty feet above the
ground.
Sonnemann dashed out of his apart
ment and went, yelling an. alarm, to
the roof. But the agile intruder had
entered an empty apartment on the
fifth floor and travelled by dumb
waiter down to the cellar. Neighbors
who had heard Sonnemann's cries
gathered in the cellar; among them
was Louis Warshavsky, a terror to
burglars.
IF you touch me I'll shoot" are
the words with which Watson is said
to have addressed the neighborhood
meeting when he arrived by dumb
waiter, at the same time pointing a
glistening instrument. Warshavsky
darted at Watson and received a cut
on his hand. The two then grappled.
Watson, a boilermaker's helper, was
able to struggle free, but not before
the rather dimunitive Warshavsky
had picked up a box and banged him
on the head with it.

Before putting her to sleep for the

They Say Internal Dosing Harms Delicate

Careful mothers everywhere realize
that internal medicines are injurious
to the delicate stomachs Of the little
folks. Still Group and cold troubles
must have some form Of treatment.
The answer to this problem is the
Southern external treatment Vap-O-
Rub. This was introduced in st.
10, Mo-, for the first time last winter,
and a number of ladies were presented
with complimentary jars by their
druggists on condition that they give
Vap-O-Rub a thorough test. Here are
the reports from several Of these Ia
dies
Mrs. Sam House, 1906 Prospect Ave.
writes-"My little daughter had Diph-
iberia last fall, and now every little
cold she takes settles in her throat.
We have thought twice she was going

n of her bad spells my druggist sent
me a jar of Vap-O-Rub. I used it for
four nights on her throat with such
good results that now I don't like to

If you Suffer from Backache, Lum-

Take Hot Water and "ANUREC"

American men and women must guard
constantly against kidney trouble, be-
cause we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, be-
come sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and the result is kidney trouble,
bladder weakness and a general decline
in health.
When your kidneys feel like humps of
lead. when your back hurts or the urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night, when you suffer with
sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells,
