Ellwi the om of Divorce Evil. wad of sou a re. pink paper about an inch The Lesson of History. We take the following extract the oration of Judge Jann the Confederate Veteran New Orleans: “The history of our ra that often the vanquishe tract from B. Gannt at reunion in teaches us are, in the i Dclinealo n th year tile million divorces country during the last twenty had been granted for trivial cau outlook would lie bad enough, but the j situation becomes all the more serious when the separations take place lor grave moral reasons. It is generally recognize d that such causes as adultery, desertion, cruelty, imprisonment fori crime, habitual drunkenness and neg lect to provide are grave reasons for divorce, and while some of our States have omnibus clauses in their divorce law, these principal grounds are the ones recognized by the majority oi States. Moreover, the statistics of divorces gr mted show that S7 per cent, of all divorces are granted on these six prin cipal grounds. Only an insignificant fraction of the divorces in the United States are granted for trivial reasons, such as “incompatibility of temper.” Again, over 00 per cent, of the di vorces in the United States are grant ed for the two most serious grounds of all adultery and desertion. In other words, in two-thirds of the cases di vorce was granted after husband and wife were already practically separa ted. We must conclude, therefore, that di vorce is prevalent not because of the laxity of our laws, but rather because of the decay of our family life. The real evil is not divorce, but the decay of the very virtues upon which the home rests. The problem in American family life is whether we are able to build up the virtues upon which a new and higher type of family may be founded higher, that is, than the des potic, semi-patriarchal type of family of our fathers, which is now passing away, or is, rather, already extinct. It must be remembered, however, that the first essential element in the home life of a people is stability. GROWS HAIR ON BALD HEADS. Bald Headed People May Get a New Chance in Life. In these days when youth is the moving factor in business; when a man makes his mark at thirty-live and is ready to retire at forty-live; when business houses pension the man >ve call "middle age” rather than allow his lag ging influence to intrude upon the com mercial rush, a bald head is almost fa tal to any man’s hopes. The following must therefore bo interesting to people who are losing their hair or who are bald. Resorcin is one of the latest and most effective germ killers discovered by science, and in connection with Beta Napthol, which is both germicidal and antiseptic, a combination is formed which destroys the germs which rob the hair of its uutriment, and also creates a clean and healthy condition of the scalp, which prevents the devel opment of new germs. Pilocarpin is a well-known agent for restoring the hair to its natural color, wheie the loss of color has been due to a disease of the scalp. Yet it is not a coloring matter or dye. This combination of curatives mixed with alcohol as a stimulant perfects the most effective remedy for hair and scalp troubles. The famous Rexnll “93“ Hair Tonic is chiefly composed of Resorcin, Beta Napthol and Pilocarpin. It makes the scalp healthy, nourishes the hair, stim ulates the follicles. Where the head is already bare, it enters the follicles, re vitalizes the roots, supplies nourish ment and stimulates a new growth. We want you to try a few bottles of ReXall “93“ Hair Tonic, on our per sonal guarantee that the trial will not cost you a penny if it does not give you absolute satisfaction. That’s proof of our faith in this remedy, and it should indisputably demonstrate that we know what we are talking about when we say that Rexall “93” Hair Tonic will grow hair on bald heads, except, of course, where baldness has been of such long duration that the roots of the hair are entirely dead, the follicles closed and grown over, and the scalp is glazed. Remember, we are basing our state ments upon what has already been ac complished by the use of Rexnll “93“ Hair Tonic, and we have the right to assume that what it lias done to hun dreds of others it will do for you.

"But the draft only calls for three and a half,” protested the cashier. “I know that is what it says,” said the madam, “but you see down there at the bottom it says ‘not over five dollars,’ and my husband wrote me if I needed more than the three-fifty, I could get the five.” And there it was stamped indelibly by a protectograph- not over five dol- ars. ($5.) We have often wondered if ‘hubby’ really wrote her as she said, fora joke, or if her conscience was on a vacation that day, and she stretched the truth just a trifle. Why George Got Red. Tit-Bits. A business man has a daughter and also a confidential clerk, and the confi dential clerk has for some time been attentive to the daughter, but he has not—or had not a month ago—sufficient courage to come to the point, though the young woman, goodness knows, has never done anything to scare him off, for he is a first-class fellow in every respect. The other evening he was making a call, and about 9 o’clock her father came in. “Ah. George,” he said, “how about that deal we were talking of this after noon Did you see the party?” “Yes, sir,” replied George, “and I expected to see you this evening and tell you about it.” “My dear,” asid the father, turning to his daughter, "will you retire for a few minutes? George wants to speak business for awhile.” The daughter rose up, but hesitated. "Why do I have to go?” she aked doubtfully. “Because, dear,” smiled the father, “you are not interested. Why do you want to stay?” She blushed and fidgeted. “Because, papa,” she twittered, “I’d rather like to hear George talk business just once.” Then George got red, and the father looked at them both significantly, and tlu* girl fled. William had just returned from col lege to spend his spring vacation. One of the things most noticed by the young man was Fanny, the daughter of Si Perkins, a near neighbor, who had during his absence changed from a tomboyish schoolgirl into a very beau tiful young woman. It seems his fath er had also noticed the change, and re marked to his son : "William, have you noticed how old Si Perkins’ daughter, Fanny, has shot up? Seems to me she's gettin’ to be a jolly, handsome young critter!” “She certainly is, father,” said Wil liam, enthusiastically. “Fanny is as beautiful as Hebe!” “Where’s your eyes, boy?’ objected the father. “She’s a durn sight pur- tier than he be! Old Si is as homely as Bill Jones’ bull pup.” The late Gen. Joseph Wheeler told this story as illustrating the firm be lief that in war times prevailed in Tennessee as to the efficacy of prayer : “There had been a summer religious meeting in one of the rural districts. No rain, it seems, had fallen in a long time; everything was about burned up. Consequently, the preacher at the meeting referred to concluded his prayer with this appeal for rain; “ ‘Oh, Lord, we need a refreshing shower. Be pleased to send us the blessed rain, so that the drooping veg- nny event you cannot lose anything by I etation may be revived. Oh. Lord, not giving it a trial on our liberal guaran- i one of those light, drizzly rains, but a tee. The Holt & Cutes Drug Co. Two ( regular ground-soaker. A heavy rain, sizes, 50c. and $1. men of the South that they should be i tried in the fiery ordeal of war and the j still more grievous experience of our reconstruction period, to produce a race of men and women who should once | more lead our beloved country to the most exalted place among the nations of the earth. Who cannot even at this day recognize that the war of 1861 to 1865 taught not only the South, but the North and the world, that through suf fering and privation all that is strong and noble in a people muse be developed and exemplified. What Southern man is so blind as not to realize that only a war could produce a Robert E. Lee. a Stonewall Jackson, a Thomas R. R. Cobb, as perpetual examples of duty, self-sacrifice and manly purity; a war which caused the whole South to suf fer the loss of all its material wealth and its life of ease and comfort for principle alone, will in the end fur nish to the generations yet to come their greatest incentive for a higher life and to the maintenance of those virtues of self-denial and civil purity which alone can exalt a people and make them great in the true sense.” Right Amount of Sleep. Nothing is more important than sleep, because it is at the foundation of all waking activity. Yet few men and few er women get either the proper quantity or the proper quality of sleep. The main cause of sleeplessness, or failure to sleep long enough and well, is indigestion. And as the woman, in broad, use their bodies and their brains less than men, they lie awake more hours that should be spent in conscious ness. This indigestion is usually not of the painful kind, but is, on the con trary, accompanied by no other symp tom than restless slumber or wakeful ness. Worry or care rarely causes sleepless ness, or even grief. People eat when they are laboring under these emotions, and what they eat does not digest, and of course they do not sleep. The stupor produced by beer, wine, whiskey, sufanol and other sleeping potions is not sleep, any more than it is sleep to butt one’s head against the bedpost until one is unconscious. Ev eryone must study the problem of sleep for himself or herself. And everyone should do it—the women especially, if they wish to fool the men and other women about their age after they are thirty. ___ Is she not the very sparkle and sun shine of life?—the woman who is happy because she can’t help it, whose smiles even the coldest sprinkle of misfortune cannot dampen? Men make a terrible mistake when they marry for beauty, for talents, or for style. The sweetest wives are those who possess the magic secret of being content under any cir cumstances. Rich or poor, high or low, makes no difference; the bright little fountain of joy bubbles up just as mu sically in their hearts. Do they live in a log cabin, the fire that leaps upon its humble hearth becomes brighter than the gilded chandeliers in an Aladdin palace. Where is the stream of life so dark and unpropitious that the sun shine of a happy face falling on the turbid tide will not awaken an answer ing gleam? These joyful, good-tem pered people don’t know half the good they do. A youth in Trenton, whose devotion to the young woman of his choice has encountered many obstacles during his long courtship, recently sought her out with this apparently encouraging state ment : ”1 think it’s all right now, Alice. I managed to get access to your father the other day. and while he wouldn’t exactly give his consent I rather im agine I’ve made some headway. He borrowed $40 of me. Surely he can't stand me off much longer after that.” The young woman sighed. “Yes, I’ve heard about it," she said, “and I think you’ve made an awful mess of it. Fath er mentioned the $40 and remarked that I’d better give you up—you were too easy.” Uncle Billy had taken ids niece to see the races. She had never been to Reform’s Thorny Pathway. New Yor! Tribune. “Reforms are always difficult to ■tart with,’” said Gov. Folk, of Mis-! souri. “New Year’s resolutions are no I exception to the rule. “I known young man who decided | on New Year’s Day that he was giving I too many of his evenings to the club. Accordingly, he resolved that through out 1908 he would go to the club only twice a month. And then he proceeded to put the resolution in force. “ ‘Amy,’ he said to his wife at din ner, ‘1 know that since our marriage I have been too constant a frequenter of the club, and I am aware that this has caused you a deal of silent wretched ness. My dear. I am sorry. I am going to turn over a new leaf. And I will begin to-night.’ “The young woman’s eyes shone. Her face lighted with joy. “ ‘Oh. Harold.’ she cried ‘how happy you have made me ! Uncle Jim wants me to go to the theater with him to night and you can stay home and mind the baby.’ ” “Peter,” said Mrs. Pneuritch, ”1 want you to have that roof taken off our garage and one of a different kind put on.” “What for?” demanded Mr. Pneu ritch. “What's the matter with it?” “I heard an architect say the other day that it’s a hip roof. Everybody knows that hips are out of style now.” Education makes a difference between the cannibal and the gentleman.

Rheumatism is caused by an excess 0 f uri< acid and other corrosive, irritating poisons in the blood, which are carried through the circulation to every part of the system. Every muscle, nerve, membrane, tissue and joint becomes saturated with these acrid, irritating impurities, or coated with fine, insoluble caustic matter, and tlie sharp, piercing pains or the dull, constant aches are felt with every physical movement. When the blood is filled with uric acid poison, perma nent relief cannot be expected from liniments, plasters, or other external treatment. Such measures give temporary relief, but in order to conquer Rheumatism and bring about a u -—■ complete cure, the uric acid and other inflammatory matter must be expelled, and this cannot tie done with external treatment. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism because it is a perfect and entirely vegetable blood purifier. It goes down into the circulation, neutralizes the acids, and dissolves the irritating depos its which are pressing on the sensi tive nerves and tissues and produc ing pain, enriches the weak, sour blood, and removes every atom of impurity from the circulation. So instead of being a weak, sour stream, distributing uric acid to the different parts of the system, the blood is strong and healthy and therefore able to supply every mus- cle, nerve, bone and tissue with nourishment and strength. Then the inflam mation and swelling subside, the pains and aches cease, and not only is Rheumatism permanently cured, but under the fine tonic effects of S. S. S. the entire general health is benefitted and built up. In all forms of Rheuma tism, whether acute or chronic, S. S. S. will be found a safe and reliable treat ment.
