JOHN FOUND THE BRAND

DOUGLAS, Aug 1S-All Biblical students will readily recognize the quOtation:
 "Of the making of books there is no end"
 The same would apply if various brands of oil of joy was substi- tuted for books"
 Of the latter there are fighting brands, singing brands, sleeping brands, smiling brands, quiet brands, talking brands, brands that make the poor feel rich and the rich feel poor brands that have uncrowned kings and overthrown empires But it remained for John Davidson, who resides on the famous Douglas beach to discover the brand that is wont to make plain, ordinary, common reconstructed man that has no more resemblance to Apollo than a totem pole, try to initiate September Morn
 Yet that is just what John done last night-and it was raining too

FROM WARM SPRINGS BAY

DOUGLAS, Aug. 1S.-K. Lawrence with his wife, daughter and son re- turned yesterday afternoon from two months spent at Warm Springs Bay for the benefit of the children, both of whom had been suffering from rheumatism for more than a year, so much so that neither of them were able to attend school during the last term. They were both greatly benefited while away. Mir. Lawrence made expenses on the trip by fishing but will reopen his metal works and repair shop here at once

of sympathy and affection, which they intend to break over my dead bring them out in my weary and troubled hours and open them, that II may be refreshed and cheered by them while l need them. I would rather have plain coffin without a flower and funeral without an eulogy than a life without the sweet ness of love and sympathy. Let Us learn to annoint my friends before hand for their burial; post mortem kindness does not cheer the hard ened spirit. Flowers upon the cof- fin shed no fragrance backward ov- CT the weary way by which loved ones have travelled.
