PLEASANTLY REPORTED FOR
SUNDAY’S CALL.
THE ANGEL OF PATIENCE.
To weary hearts, to mourning homes,
God’s meekest angel gently comes ;
No power has he to banish pain,
Or give us back our lost again ;
And yet, in tenderest love our dear
And heavenly Father sends him here.
There’s quiet in that angel’s glance,
There’s rest in his still countenance !
He mocks no grief with idle cheer,
Nor wounds with words the mourner’s
ear;
But ills and woes he may not cure
He kindly trains us to endure.
Angel of Patience 1 sent to calm
Our feverish brows with cooling balm,
To lay the storms of hope and fear,
And reconcile life’s smile and tear ;
The throbs of wounded grief to still,
And make our own our Father’s will!
O thou who mournest on thy way,
With longings for the close of day,
He walks with thee, that angel kind,
And gently -whispers, “Be resigned;
Bear up, bear on, the end shall tell
The dear Lord ordereth all things well! ”

The average man would laugh to
■corn the assertion that the tailor
made girl has quite as many tantaliz
ing things to contend with in dressing
herself for that “simple smartness”
characterizing her as be himself has
in arranging his own faultless linen.
He doesn’t dream how well groomed
femininity has many times a week to
suppress wrath akin to that which so
freely bubbles between his own lips
because of the same aggravating ca«
prices of an inoffensive looking collar
button. It never enters his mind that
the (etching Ascot has perhaps caused
her to storm up and down before her
mirrors, calling on the gods to come
down and help her tie the thing. He
knows well enough the myriad of
fenses of his own neckgear and the
wrath with which he has pounced
upon his laundiy king, but the stay
little thing at his side—why, of course,
she does not know what trouble is.
The tailor made girl has to avoid the
least suggestion of “flufliness.” Her
hair should not look fluffy, nor the
feathers on her hat. Her shirt waist
is hopeless if not thoroughly severe,
and her tie must receive just the right
twist. I have known a girl to spend a
solid hour wrestling with stiff collars
that simply refused to button, first
one, then another. Her arms ached
and her neck was scratched with the
tying. When at last a tractable but
tonhole was discovered the tiny gold
button disappeared and she thought
it had rolled under the rug or behind
the cosy corner. Then a search for
that began,for it happened that she
had no other button. It was simply
that or none. I shall not dwell upon
the detail of that eeach, but the but
ton was discovered at last in a hat
box. What tailor made girl has not
stood before her mirror hopelessly en
tangled in the meshes of an Ascot tie
—that simple little string that persists
in twisting itself into an “old maid’s
knot,” or wiggling the wrong side out?
The tailor made girl’s boot string take«
advantage of her dependence upon it
and breaks just as she is making a
hurried toilet. Not another pair to
her name, and just twenty minutes to
keep her engagement! He. hair pos
itively refuses sometimes to part
straight, and one persistent tress
makes her a half hour late at the
play. A button deliberately flies off
her coat as she starts for the door, or
No Right to Ugliness.
The woman who is lovely in face,
form and temper will a’ways have
friends, but one who would be attrac
tive must keep her health If she is
weak, sickly and all run down, she will
be nervous and irritable. If she has
constipation or kidney trouble, her
impure blood will cause pimples,
blotches, skin eruptions and a wretched
complexion. Electric Bitters is the

It is the exceptional man, and the
exceptional man alone, who has any
knowledge of the art of decoration-
Given a fortune, any man can call in
the services of a professional decorator.
But the man who cannot afford this
frequently finds himself at a standstill.
It ends by his having rooms that are
ordinary and show little taste. There
is a suggestion in the bedroom of a
certain New Yorker, who achieved
charming results at very little expense-
His room is a symphony in green.
Very dark green chintz covers the
walls. His bed is green, his dressing
table green, his carpet matches these.
Down to the smallest de.ail this color
scheme is carried out. Even the
brushes and combs are green.

Conduct of Negro Troops
The conduct of the negro troops
mustered out of service in firing their
pistols from the trains and commit*
ting other disorders i« highly discredi
table to the race We think the negro
has demonstrated hie unfitne-e for ser
vice in the army, and especially a*
volunteer troops under colored offi
cers. The comparativelj fi
volunteers have given the country
more trouble than all the while troops
combined
The negro was given a fair chance
to demonstrate hie fitness for the du
ties of a soldier, it being thought es
pecially desirable to have negro troops
for duty in Cuba, as it was believed
they would stand the climate there
better than the white troops. The dis
graceful conduct of the few negroes
■ent to Cuba after the war with Spain
had ended on the Eland so discour
aged the war department that it ap
parently abandoned its original inten
tion of sending a large number of ne
gro troops there for police duty This
action was wise, and doubtless pre
vented a great deal of trouble. The
Cubans do not seem to like the
American negroes realizing that ne
gro troopa would be a constant source
of trouble and Hanger on the island.
The conduct of lhe negro troops on
8) many occa«ious in thia country has
been so disgraceful that the war de
partment will hardly accept many
negroes as.troops in future —Columbua

Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and, beneficial
effects of the well known remedy.
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plant- known to lie
medicinally laxative and pr< ‘eiiting
them in the form most refreshing , the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality aud sub
stanie, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant, to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fig bYRUp
Co. only. In order to get it s beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please

Is Your Blood Diseased
Thousands of Sufferers From Bad Blood
Permanently Cured by B. B. B.
To Prove the Wonderful Merits ot Botanic Blood
Balm—B. B. B,—or Three B’s, Every Reader
of the Morning Call may Have a Sam
ple Bottle Sent Free by Mail.
Cures Deadly Cancer, Scrofula, Boils, Blood Poison, Bumps,
Pimples, Bone Pains, Ulcers, Eczema, Sores on Face,
Catarrh, Rheumatism and Broken-down
Constitutions.
Everyone who is a sufferer from bad
blood in any form should write Blood
Balm Company fora sample bottle of
their famous B. B. B.—Botanic Blocd
Balm.
B. B. B. cures because it literally drives
the poison ot Humor (which produexs
blood diseases) out of the blood, tones and
tody, leaving the flesh as pure as a new
born babe’s, and leaves no bad after effects.
No one can afford to think lightly of
Blood Diseases. The blood is the life
thin, bad blood won’t cure itself. You
must get the blood out of your tones and
tody and strengthen the system by new,
fresh blood, and in this way the sores and
ulcers cancers, rheumatism, eczema, ca
tarrh, etc., are cured. B. B. B. does all
this lor you thoroughly and finally. B H.
B. is a powerful Blood Remedy (and not a
mere tonic that stimulates but don’t cure)
and for this reason cures when all else
fails.
No one can tell how bad blood in the
system will show itself. In one person it
will break out in form of scrofula, in
another person, repulsive sores face
or ulcers on the leg, started by a slight
blow. Many persons show bad blood by
a breaking out of pimples, sores on tongue
or lips. Many persons’ blood is so bad
that it breakes out in terrible cancer on
the face, nose stomach or womb. Cancer
is the worst form of bad blood, and hence
cannot be cured by cutting, because you
can t cut out the bad blood; but cancer
and all or any form of bad blood is easily
and quickly removed by B. B. B. Rheu
matism and catarrh are both caused by
bad blood, although many doctors treat
them as local diseases. But that is the
reason catarrh and rheumatism are never
cured, while B. B. B. has made many
lasting cures of catarrh and rheumatism.
I’itnples and sores on the face can never

the trouble is deep down below the sur-

the disease is strongest, and that is done
by taking B. B. B. and driving the baa
blood out of the body; in this way your
pimples and unsightly blemishes are
cured.
People who are predisposed to blood
disorders may experience any one or all
of the following symptoms: Thin blood,
the vital functions are enfeebled, constitu
tion shattered, shaky nerves, falling of the
hair,disturbed elumlrers, general thinness,
and lack of vitality. The appetite is bad
and breath foul. The blood seems hot in
the fingers and there are hot flushes all
over the body. If you have any of these
symptoms your blood is more or less dis
eased and is liable to show itself in some
form of sore or blemish. Take B. B. B.
at once and get rid of the inward humor
Ixjfore it grows worse, as it is bound to do
unless the blood is strengthened and
sweetened.
