BAPTIST MINISTER GIVES
TANLAC FULL CREDIT

Mo greater praise can be accorded
a medicine than the voluntary testi-
mony of a minister Of the gospel. The
preachers high calling puts grave
responsibility on his every word, and
he will not jeopardize his reputation
by commencing thing without first
assuring himself 1t is all right.
Tanlac has been endorsed by num-
bers of prominent ministers. They
have put Tanlac to the test of per-
sonal service and their words carry
conviction because they say what they
know to be the truth.
One of the latest to speak out in
behalf of Tanlac is Rev. B. E. Bell, a
retired Baptist minister, 207 Elm St.,
San Antonio, Texas, who says:
Before taking Tanlac had suf-
fered from stomach and nerve trou-
bles for over 80 years and there were
times when my condition was such
that it required almost superhuman
effort for me to prepare my sermons
and go through with my Sunday serv-

Exhibition Stamp

Great Britain has once again broken
away from tradition by issuing spe-
cia1 imperial exhibition postage stamp.
Most other countries make frequent
changes in design, and some Of the
smaller republics in South America
have derived a comparatively large
revenue by issuing new stamps on the
slightest pretext and selling them to
stamp collectors all over the world.
Greece cannot be suspected of this
financial jugglery, and she is quite
justified in printing a series of stamps
in commemoration of the Byron CEN
tenary. One represents the landing of
Byron at Missolonghi, and another
bears the portrait of the poet in his
youth.

Something to Think About
Blu F. A. UALKER

We may become accustomed to the
vagaries of our friends and acquaint-
ances, and overlook their follies, but
we can never accustom ourselves to the
niggardly and those who give scant
measure, even If we happen to be
misery ourselves.
In spite of his contemplate prac-
tees, the skinfint likes liberality from
others.
He may sometimes look forward to
the day when he shall be open
handed and smiling, but the day never
arrives, as there are in his nature too
many contrarieties blocking the way.
All that Is good, noble and beauti-
full comes from the beneffcent hand
that heaps the measure, and, in the
future, the soul that prompts the
hand shall reap a bountiful reward
which no earth-made coin can buy
Heap your measure with love and
kindness, top 1t off with smiles Of
cheer, then in the hour when the
mean shall grovel in the darkness,
you shall be glorified at peace with
yourself and with all the sons of men.

Auto Falls so Feet;
Occupants Unhurt

Hornell, N. 1.-TWO smashed head
light bulbs constituted the only dam
age when a closed automobile oc-
cupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Bump
crashed through the guard railing on
an overhead bridge late at night and
dropped 60 feet to the railroad tracks
below. Bump was hurrying to the
bedside of his mother, who was re-
ported to be near death.
The automobile landed right side up
and neither of the occupants was even
bruised.

HEAPING MEASURES

TN OUR dealings with others, In our
4 social contacts and communication,
IL we give heaping measure, whether
1t be good or evil, it will return some
day before the ending of our career,
to cheer or depress us.
A kindly word spoken to a boy or
girl, as he or she steps upon the
threshold of life to do battle is never
forgotten, nor is the frown or the ex-
pletive that condemns and finds fault
without reason.
The human heart keeps an accurate
diary. 1t records events which In
later life, as the yellowed pages are
fingered, startle men and women out
of their senses. The blots and tear
stains, the UNDERSIGNED sentences
written so hastily, and sometimes bold
ly and defiantly, tell the tale of the
years that are gone.
Mother anG father, who chided US
for our waywardness, never discon-
tinued giving us heaping measures OF
love, which often in our irresponsible
moments we rejected.
Thinking Of them in the morning
when we shave our stubby beard, or
apply the lip-stick and powder puff, we
resolve to do good; and make everybody
we meet brighter and happier. And
usually we make pitiful job of 1t.

Essays Role of Ton, Cat
Then Ronsacks the House

Rockford, Ill.-Among Rockford's
four burglaries in one night, follow
ing six the night before, was one In
which the robber substituted himself
for the family cat.
At the home of the R. Krebs family
the large black tom cat has night
privileges. So solicitous has the
family been for Toms rights in the
home that the members have followed
the practice of determining whether
the cat is out. If he is the rear door
is left open for his return.
It was during such a period that
the burglar entered the house and
ransacked 1t.
When the family awoke in the morn
ing, the door was still ajar and the
cat was home.

THE
AFTERWHILES
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH

MY DAD was queer about some
4NA things;
/ never heard him worry much
That other people lived like kings
While we had little such and such.
l used to think our lot was hard
Because there wasn't much in sight:
He said l wouldn't afterward-
And he was right.
For, looking backward down the years,
/ seldom think of what we had.
1 just remember smiles and tears
And things like that-and mostly
dad.
don't remember who were poor,
/ don't remember who were richS
1 can't remember now for sure
Just which was which.
You just remember joys and pains
You had together, that is all;
Some simple memory remains
That makes mere money mighty
small.
/ just remember tears and smiles,
The rest is lost to sense and sight.
Dad said these made the afterwhiles-
And dad was right

LION BECAME HUNTER Lord Of The Jungle Sought Out And
 Killed His Prosecutor. 3

The most striking example of the oc. cssional pertinacity of lions whenever their minds. are made up was the case of Superintendent of Police Ryall, writes Eteward' Edward White in the Saturday Evening Post.
 This lion was a. terror of baboos (East Indian railroad telesraphers) :. The Uganda railway was then--and still is, fog ali know-mestly strat- egic line connecting the coast with the interior, At least, for, the first part of its span station was really nothing more than a water tank flanked' by a small corrugated iron structure in which dwelt East Indian baboos, alone with their telegraph instruments and their religious thoughts. Only a baboo with religious thoughts could ever have stuck it out.
 l Near one such station, named Kimaa. dwelt very mean and exploratory lion He had pretty good luck. from his point of. view, for he had bagged sev- eral natives, some of them employees of the railroad. Finally he took chance at the baboo. The latter, like a mud turtle, crawied into his corrugated iron shell and locked the doors.
 The lion tried earnestly at all points. even climbing topside and endeayorinE to tear off the roof. while the baboo sat below and sent, to. the traffic man. ager the following wire:
 "Lion fighting with station. Send ur- gent succor."
 Whether Rtall was the urgent suc- cor or not do not remember; but at any rate he and two friends, in his pri- yate car shortly, after sidetracked at kimaa and went forth to abate Mir. Lion. They did not succeed but Ryall got on the animals trail and followed 1t so persistently as to become a nuis- ance to the jungle autocrat..
 In the end compartment of the car occupied by the white men were only two berths. The other end of the car, shut off by a sliding door, was as usual set aside for native servants. One of RyalPs friends was assigned the upper berth, Ryall himself took the lower berth and the other friends spread out on the floor.
 Soon after thsy had settled down for the night the lion appeared. He mounted the three steps 50 quietly that no one was disturbed: he managed to thrust back the sliding door at the end, which must have been partly ajar. Anen, ignpriug the two other men, he seized Ryall.N To do so he actually planted his feet on the man who was sleeping on the floor.
 It really seemed that he had deliber- ately marked, down the one who had pursued him. \ In the meantime the sliding door had sprung shut The lion, carrying his victim, smashed through the windows, breaking and splintering surrounding woodwork, and disap- peared. Ryall's remains were found next morning more than a quarter of a mile away from the car.

HAVING ORGY IN
 GEWGAW BUYING.
Europe And Asia In Race To
 Supply The American

Europe and Asia arc engaged in a race for control of the biSyest bead and bangle market of the world. No Costa Rican butterfly wing, no Braxil- ian bird feather, no old boneyard in China and no Pacific Island beach is safe from raiders who search the earth for bits of sbrilliance to hang around the Iecks of women of the New World, says the New York Sun and Globe.
 There is a certain comic clement in this hunt for stuff to decorate the educated, emancipated North American woman. She is, buying her baubles by the ton. By degrees she seems to have come under the domination of an in- satiable desire to possess an unlimited store, of glittering gewgaws. A.-
 The seeds of island grasses, scales of little fish, properly processed chunks of cheese and the plain, Irish potato are some of the raw materials used in getting together. a season's supply of still moro beads and bangles.A
 Nfnrket Slump Arrived NJ
 For mAny months masculine croakers in the trade have predicted an ineyitaz ble break in the market. Calamity howlers have hinted it was due for a crash. They reasoned in . fortnight masculine manner They applied the rules of. logic.
 Starting with a product far from fragile, with most of the styles all but static, slump seemed bound to come. But it didn't. The great American gew- gaw market has not yet reached point of saturation..
 For instance, so consistent has been the demand for old bone ivory that all the obsolete cats and dogs and an- tique camels in Asia haven't been able to furnish bone for both necklace and for inah-jongg tiles. Indeed, there was a crisis, Quayering question as to which industry was going to get them, until this country came to, the rescue with few tons of nice shiny soup homes we could very we'll do without. So we are supplied with bone ivory beads and mah-jongg tiles as well.
