NEWS = =s OF INTEREST IN THE BEAUTIFUL HANDS Such beautiful, beautiful hands? They’re neither white nor small; And you, I know, would scarcely think That they were fair at all. I’ve looked on hands whose form and hue A sculptor’s dream might be; Yet are these aged, wrinkled hands Most beautiful tome. Such beautiful, beautiful hands! Though heart were weary or sad, These patient hands kept toiling on That children might be glad. But oh! beyond the shadow-land, Where all is bright and fair, I know full well these dear old hands Will palms of victory bear. Where crystal streams, through end less time, Flow over golden sands, And where the old grow young again, I’ll clasp my mother’s hand. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Give us to awake with smiles, give us to labor, smiling. As the sun light ens the world so let our loving kind ness make bright this house of our habitation.—Stevenson.

CALOMEL MIKES YOU OEATALY SIGK Stop Using Dangerous Drug Before It Salivates You! It’s Horrible! You’re bilious, sluggish, consti pated and believe you need vile, dangerous calomel to start your liver and clean your bowels. Here’s my guarantee! Ask your druggist for aSO cent bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone and take a spoonful tonight. If it doesn’t start your liver and straighten you right up better than calomel and without griping or making you sick I want you to go back to the store and get your money. Take calomel today and tomor row you will feel weak and sick and nauseated. Don’t lose a day’s work. Take a spoonful of harm less, vegetable Dodson’s Liver Tone tonight and wake up feeling great.
