Dislike

l never liked ]. Jimpson Jones,
| never liked his curves; his voice
had harsh and grating tones that
seemed to jar my nerves. i didn t
like the way he walked-he had
no manly grace; l didn't like the
way he talked, the way he wore
his face. His joints were loose
and swayed his back, his teeth ad-
justed wrong; his feet were large
and wouldn't track, his whiskers
were too long. | used to wish
he'd move away to some far for
eign shore, so when | Journeyed
day by day, I'd see him never
more. Then I fell sick and went
to bed, and called in DR.. Guy; he
felt my pulse and soaked my head,
and said I'd likely die. For weary
weeks | suffered there, with rheu-
matiz and gout, and made such
noise, in my despair, | wore my
windpipe out. And impson
Jones came there each day to see
what he could do; he fed the COWS
their shredded hay and milked the
critters, too. AS kind and tender
as a frau, my pain he'd try to
ease; for hours he'd fan my few
cred brow and help me cuss dis
ease. Again I'm we'll; my heart
felt groans no more the neighbors
hear; | now am busy boosting
Tones-I praise him far and near.

AVOID PREJUDICE.

ment and Breeds Inius+io.

~'S DTGcUS InluStICe,
Prejudice Is an insidious thing. II
creeps into the soul unaware. 1t leads
US to say and do wrong things: II
warps our judgment and leads to in
justice. unkindness and even cruelty.
1t paves the way for hatred and mall
Ice. In proportion as we learn to clear
our minds of prejudice we become bet
ter men and women; we win friends
and dissolve enmities; we are more
worthy Of respect and confidence.
No one wants to be judged by false
standards that prejudice sets up. Be.
ware of judging others in such a light.
Prejudice cramps the mind and the
heart; it stands III the way. Of rightful
growth of character. 1t is wise TO
search your heart and if you find pref
udice there to set about to root il out
wholly.
Do not be sure you Of all men are
unprejudiced. That is the Danger, for
prejudice is guarded by vaEity. Seek
to be just In all things, small as well
as great. In all the relations Of life be
sure you are not judging another, not
for his error, but from your prejudice.
For the worst thing about this weak
ness is that 1t breeds injustice and un-
kindness and malice. 1t hurts innocent
folk and makes no one happier.-Mil-

Mothers Doll Story
The Bean Bag

Once upon a time there was a jolly
little boy who loved to play ball. He
was almost as fat as butter, as broad
as he was long. But he could throw
a ball quite straight, although he was
only three years old.
His name was Tommy.
Well, one afternoon Tommy, just for
fun. got all his new balls together in
pile. He had good many, because
everybody who loved Tommy always
gave him ball.
There was big brick red, soft one
that he used to keep in his cradle when
he was a baby. There was a harder
one Of gray rubber that was fine to
throw into tub of water. And there
was a leather football almost as round
as Tommy was. Besides, there were
two baseballs that he used to throw
over the fence, and there was a red,
white and blue ball that came from
Paris.
But best Of all was his bean ball
This really was baby doll stuffed
with beans. So Tommy could use it
as ball or as bean bag, just as he
pleased.
One day it rained hard, and Tommy
left his bean bag doll outdoors in the
wet. And what happened? Why, the
beans all swelled up, split open the
bag and before Tommy found them
started to grow right there in the door
yard. Wasn't that funny?

the show was very good one and
that it was given at the Baird theater
to a large and well satisfied audience.
The Sun comments: "There was
wealth of wonderful view, plenty OF
enhancing music and troup of
beautiful girls The costumes of the
chorus and principals are full of har-
monies of line and color. Particu-
larly beautiful were the scenes laid IN
Honolulu-the ocean ultamarine, the
beaches and the coral islands. the
green palms-all were pleasant and
restful to the eye. There were also
fetching gowns on graceful dancers"
The performance at the Temple
this evening will probably draw a
good audience, and if the show is, as
it is claimed, better than last year,
all who see. it will be well pleased:
