THE MAN WHO WINS.

The man who jumps in the game
each day
With a cheerful and happy smile.
Who tackles his work in the proper
way,
All. He is the chap worth while.
He is the chap who Will win. the
game.
At the close Of the day you'll find
He's nearing the coveted hall OF
Fame
And the laggards are left behind.
The man who works with his heart
and soul
And laughs at the cares that pile
All. he is the lad who will win the
goal,
He is the lad worth while
For the world pins faith 10 a chap
who works
With courage and vim and pluck
And the world ignores every man
that shirks.
Depending on fortune and luck.

We see the truth of this statement
in the varicolored flowers, the vivid
sunsets, the birds of brilliant plum
age. But we never see it exemplihed
more attractively than in the person
of a splendidly healthy woman. How
does nature paint this health? why,
in the rosy cheeks, the transparent
skin, the smooth red lips of such a
woman. And she molds it in firm
flesh and rounded contours. The
ailing woman is deficient in natural
coloring. and she does not even APP

DRESS.

Sometimes ! wear my dinner clothes.
sometimes I don the evening
coat,
Again I'll wear my very best to
meet and talk with men Of note;
Then when the Spring returns once
more and for my care the gar
den calls,
don my oldest pair Of shoes and
robe myself in overalls;
But whether I be richly dressed or
shabby garb adOrns my frame,
The man I am is altered not-that
which is I remains the same.
Last night my friend wore evening
dress. this morning should we
chance TO meet
And were he CARRIED in dirty rags
with shabby shoes upon his feet,
I still should hail him as my friend.

MED today by Chief Justice Smyth'
of the Court of Appeals.
Judge Mattingly had directed that
a quantity Of liquor which had been
seized at Halls place at 1lO2

tober, by police and revenue officers
be returned to Hall. The police
court Judge also denied the use of
the liquor "a evidence. Attorney
Daniel Thew Wright, of counsel for
Hall. opposed the mandamus on
the ground that the order was not
n final one, and was not subject to
appeal.
Chief Justice Smyth. OF the ap.
pelate tribunal held that Judge Mat
tingly erred in declining to sign the
bill of exceptions. and declared that
the question of the finality Of ar
order was for the appellate court
to decide. It was, however, held
that the error was not prejudicia'
because the order was not final.
The court said that as soon as
the liquor is returned to Hall the

Saturday half-holidays all the
year around for city postoffice
employees who can be spared with
out curtailing the service were
ordered today by Postmaster Cen
eral Work, effective beginning
January 13. The employees Of the
Postoffice Department proper,
however, are not included in the

The order is said to be without
precedent in Government circles.
Order Extends to Country.
The Postmaster Generals orde'

The new order is an extension o;

with all departmental workers H.
Washington, were excused on Satui
day afternoon during the summe
season at the discretion of post
masters.

day half-holidays during all the
months Of the year instead of con.

The order. in part. follows:
"Postmasters are authorized to
excuse earlier than their usual hour
on Saturdays such employees as may
be properly so excused without in.
jury or added expense to the service
and to equalize their benefit as far
as 1t can be done among the diff
