THE PARABLE OF THE
MAN AND THE ELEVATOR
There was a man who lived in a
certain town, and he thought himself
a Great Man. And in Size he was
Great, and if in anything he was less
than that, I am not here to- speak ill
concerning him. And he made a
Visit to a Great City. And he did
some business in an Office upon the
Top Floor of an High Office Building.
And when he had done his Business,
he went out into the Corridor, and
pushed the' Button for the Elevator.
And he looked at the Indicator, and
saw that a Car started up Immediate
ly. And he watched the Indicator as
is t showed that the Car was rising
floor by floor.
And the Car came up and made no
stops, for it was the Middle of the
Forenoon, when every one was at
work save the Elevator Man.
And there came to him a feeling
of Elation. And he said, Behold how
the Car cometh up when I push the
Button. It is ascending all this way
for Me.
And the Car came straight unto
the Top Floor wherie the man awaited
it. And it stopped, and the Elevator
Man opened the Door, and there
emerged a little Shrimp of a man.
And the man who had been wait
ing for the Car got in and went down,
and his pride went down with *ke
Car. For he said, Verily I thought
that this Car was coming up f° r m y
sake alone, and Behold, it no more
came up to take Me down, than it
came to carry the other man up; and
he was not much of a man.
Now I considered this, and I said
within myself that it' is not well for
[a man to think of himself more high-
You can easily tell a GOOD article
by the number of substitutes, and,
like other GOOD drinks, there is a
SUBSTITUTE now for “NU
GRAPE.”
This substitute is artificially col
ored and flavored, and states so
on the cap and when you call for
GRAPE the substitute is furnished
by some.
NU-GRAPE is the genuine, origi
nal drink and has the GENUINE
GRAPE FLAVOR AND COLOR,
not the artificial, so call for “NU
GRAPE” when ordering and look
at the cap to see that it is NU
GRAPE.

ly than he ought to think; for even
the good things and conveniences
which are supposed to be the monop
oly of the great are largely the
things that belong to Humanity in
Common. For the rain descendeth
upon the just and the unjust, and the
sun shineth upon tly: evil and the
good; and a Newsboy can push the
Button of an Elevator as effectually
as the President of a Bank.
Wherefore be not too proud, for as
thou art, so are other men; and thou
art not the greatest of them, but only
about the Average.—Watchman-Ex

Biliousness and Constipation.

biliousness and constipation, which
made life miserable for me. My ap
