They loved each other when they
met, Jane Doe and Richard Roe;
"A wedding is the safest bet" he
said, in accents low; Il never met

pleased me So" you are my
peacherino boy" the lovely maid
replied; "such honeyed language
you employ, you cannot be denied.
and it will fill my heart with joy,
to be your blooming bride" They
came to me for seven bones, to
pay the pastors fee, for wedding
rings with plate glass stones, and
yelling fair to see, and ! exclaimed,
in ringing tones, What fools you
mortalS be! Go, court each other
for a year, and take long moonlight
walks; let Richard whisper in
lanes car the gushing tosh that
knocks; let Jane be sure he is a
dear, let Richard save the rocks.
This marriage graft should be ap-
preached by slow and sure degrees,
the young man should be wisely
coached, the girl should strive to
please; the subject never should be
broached as one would speak of
cheese. And marriage is a house
of groans unless true love is there.

No. Il.
pOISONS

Last April the daily papers
carried a sad story of a baby
boy, seventeen months old. who
found a bottle cf carbolic acid
which had been left on the floor
near where he was playing.
Children usually like to taste
whatever they can. so the little
fellow drank SO much of the
poisonous acid that 1t caused
his death.
No mother. would deliberately
give her child a known deadly
poison, but every one In the
home should be very careful not
to leave any poisonous article
where a child could possibly OBJ
tain it. All medicines. especial
ly poisons. should be securely
locked in medicine cabinets
out of the reach of the younger
members of the family.
Lye, diSinfectants. roach and
ant powders, and similar arti-
cles containing poison should
be kept in safe places. when
1T is necessary 20 spread such
articles around for sanitary
purposes. use extra care to pre-
vent the children from coming
into contact with them. Some
powders Of this nature resen-
bic sugar and quickly tempt
child to taste.
The adults, too. should obey a
few simple rules to prevent ac-
cidental poisoning.
keep poisonous medicines
in properly marked bottles
bearing a label with a skull
and crossbones, or the word
Poison"
2-Never put medicines in
wrong bottles; many deaths
have been due to this cause.
3-Never take medicine in

cine.
