Do you know wlmt it was that caused you to fret, Only a year ago? Can you tell me the source of your inmost regret, Only a year ago?

Do you know why you frowned us you journeyed your, way, Only a month ago 0 Can you tell now what made your blue skies look gray, Only a month ago? What trouble was it that your happiness marred. That caused you to say that your heart had grown hard, And from all future joys in this world you were barred, Only a month ago?

Ah, few are the troubles, my brother, that last; They seem big at first, but the moment they’re past They slip from the mind, for they never stick fast.

The Kiri who wants to make a sucess of marriage must not neglect the edu cation of the husband. Many husbands are lamentable failures without realiz ing the fact. They fail out of thought lessness in 90 per cent, of cases, and the wife is very much to blame for the fact. In my own case, in the early days of matrimony, I quite acknowl edge, John was spoiled. Too much adoration is not good for any man; too much “running after’' would spoil the most angelic husband in existence. While man has a right to kindly atten tions, while no wife ought to grudge working hard to make her home pretty and comfortable, it is never wise to overdo things. Husbands are a little apt to take the wife’s hard work and trouble anti self- sacrifice for granted. After the novelty of having a devoted little wife to fuss around them and attend to their com forts every minute of the day has worn off, the great majority of married men fail in appreciation. Now, appreciation is the breath of life to the average woman. The girl who gets a judicious amount of praise and appreciation from the man she mar ries will cheerfully work her fingers to the bone for him. Married life means hard work for the wife as well as the husband; and if both are blessed with the tact that will enable them to see when the other requires sympathy and appreciation it will go far to make them “happy, though married.” Particularly is it so of the woman. Man is less sensitive, less highly strung; he is the strongest vessel, physically at least, and is not so likely to be subjecc to “nerves.” That is why sympathy and appreciation are qualities inseparable from the “model husband.” When a woman is tired and irritable, or worried, the model hus hand gives .that little word of encour agement and appreciation which acts like magic on a depressed mind and tired body. Of course, a man can’t be continually praising and admiring his wife all day. Also, often the most re served men, who find it difficult to ex press their sympathy and appreciation, really admire their wives tremend ously. Put it is wonderful how a husband’s bump of appreciation is cul tivated by a clever woman. She can tell him how much his praise means to her, how she feels encour aged and uplifted when she sees that he appreciates her efforts which is true enough. The next point in managing a hus band, girls, is to get him into punctual ways. The ordinary bachelor is often a sadly unpunctual person. He has always suited himself as regards meals and appointments generally, especially if he has lived in lodgings or gone in for club life. Marriage necessarily changes all that. No house can run smoothly on the happy-go-lucky system of everybody doing what he likes. When the young wife has done her bo3t to have a tasty hot dinner ready at a specified hour, which has had to be kept waiting till it spoils, she is naturally disappointed. When this happens three or four times a week, there are two courses she gen erally takes. She either cries or gets cross, and upbraids John in conse quence. Now, don’t do anything so foolish, girls. Useless tears and tempers are useless weapons in married life. It took me two years to realize the fact, and I must have wept barrels of tears before I learned wisdom. Man is a reasonable being; and if you quietly and sensibly make him see how much better it would be if both are punctual in every detail, it will have far more effect than tears. Tell him that if you are to have a fair chance to manage your house ca pably you must be able to depend upon him to keep to time. Of course, some men’s business is irregular, and they cannot help the fact. In such cases it is the wife’s duty to arrange matters to the best of her ability, and to accept unpunctuality occasionally with philos ophy and cheerfulness. Hut in the or dinary household punctuality can easily be insisted upon. Many wives allow their husbands to drift into unpunctual ways and to get slipshod themselves. In such houses there is no method, no order, and ultimately no comfort. So begin the education of the hus band early, but do it unostentatiously, tactfully, No husband likes it to he apparent that he is being “managed” at all. And yet all clever women man age their husbands. Do not forget that sympathy is at the root of all husbands’ management. Don’t try to manage a man by bullying or nagging Don’t forget that when he is some times obstinate and “difficult” a little judicious coaxing will go further than insisting on your rights. Men like to he appealed to. Don’t give them cause for grumbling. II a girl takes care to make home happy and comfortable, to cook nice meals and serve them daintily, a man is far less likely to grumble than under a daily menu of singed bacon and salt less potatoes. Above all, don’t he stir- gy in kind words. It is wonderful how husbands and children will improve un der kindness, tempered with firmness. Puts Crimp in Liquor Traffic. Washington, Nov. 26.- Thirty States are hit by the new United States crim inal code which limits C. O. I). whis key shipments. No more John Doe trade after the last day of this year. Jan. 1, 1910, there goes into effect the new criminal code. It was passed upon by Congress during a stolen moment from the tariff consideration of the ex tra session, and legislators who have not before had time to read it are like ly to have their attention called to its provisions in a demand for an explana tion which will make the Nicaraguan crisis sound like a fairy tale. The pro hibition people hope it will put a crimp in the practice of shipping liquor C. O. D. into prohibition States, and cut off that last source of supply which had been regarded as inviolable. “No railroad company or carrier,” says the code, “shall ship liquor into a prohibition State to other than the bona fide consignee. Violation of this section is punishable by a fine of $5,- 000 and two years’ imprisonment, or both. Not content with this restriction of the supply, the makers of the code have set down that every package which does not hear the name of the person to whom it is shipped, the kind of liquor it contains and the quantity, upon the outside, it may be seized and condemned. Here is the climax which has made the thirsty in the prohibition States wonder if the code committee could have been packed against them. It says that it will be forbidden to collect the purchase price of liquor shipped as interstate commerce “either before, on or after delivery.” If this latter pro vision has not killed the C. O. D. pack age, the framers of the code would like to have another opportunity to further amend it. |?In the South, where the prohibition wave {has submerged "several States bordering upon others less afflicted in this regard, the express business has been enormous. In some cities it is represented that quantities of packages of liquor would be shipped to the agent, and the man who wanted a quart for Saturday night need not even exercise the forethought which on Wednesday foretells a Saturday thirst. With al most the convenience of the wholesale liquor depot he could upon ten minutes’ warning run over to the express office, ask for a package for John Doe, pay the C. O D. charges, and go on his way rejoicing. Church and School. “When the late Aulri Harrison Brown, rector of St. John’s chapel, was a young man, he used to go to Maine for the summer,” said a Trinity trustee in New York. “Dr. Brown of ten told of an unforgettable incident connected with one of his first Maine sermons. “Two children had come to a church alone, and the minister noticed them from the start of his discourse. They sat in a great, high-backed pew side by side, very solemn. “After awhile they got tired. Evi dently they thought that church eti quette was the same as of the village school. They climbed down from their pew and the hoy took his tiny sister by the hand arid led her up the aisle, stopping in front of the preacher. “ ‘Please, sir,’ he said, ‘may we go home’/’ “ ‘Yes,’ paid Mr. Brown. “And they turned arid soberly de parted, hand in hand.” Heavy Buyers. Griffin Nows and Sun. “ In our town these days we see faces that are strangers to us, faces that are not familiar in our town. People from different parts of the county, from other towns, and other lo calities, some near, some far, drive in toji nspect and ascertain personally the worth and reliability of the pledges that are made from time to time to the public, by means of extensive advertis ing, by poster notices, and in the local papers. Generally these strangers are heavy buyers, and return homeward well sat- isfied with the results of their long trip. This is the finest and highest recom mendation that can be given to our business men and should be the source of their keenest pride and gratification. 1L proves that they have backed up their promises, and redeemed their pledges, and that they were able to, as they hoped, meet the expectations of those who responded to their invita tions and took them at their word. It proves further that these mes sages to the public, in one form or an other -newspaper “ads” and poster no tices—are bringing them the hoped-for results in the form of increased popu larity, increased number of customers and increased business. If it were not no, why then those many strange faces in our town these days? Why then the rush of business these days? Why then do people travel so far, from distant localities, to do business here? Here and there, in localities, are still to be found little miserly business men who have not yet learned the great les son of business progression but gener ally they lean against deserted coun ters and sooner or later go to the wall. Business progression these days is activity expansion. The business man must speak to tne people or they will not speak to him. lie owes it to the people, and the people are entitled to know what he has to offer them ; if he will not keep in touch with them, and keep them en lightened regarding his business, they will reciprocate his slight. They will not keep in touch with him, and he does not deserve it. The new and just demand of the peo ple to be recognized by the business man, and to be informed from time to time regarding his activities, consti tutes the most desirable, the most le gitimate kind of advertising. It is directly in opposition to trick and wild-cat. advertising, has the use fulness and brawn of sincerity, and finds stability in sound reason, in jus tice, and in good business principle. Wanted Further Orders. Milwaukee Sentinel. Senator Tillman was accusing a po litical leader of overhearing, arbitrary methods. “He goes too far,” said the Senator. "Hu is like the militia captain they used to have in Concord. “This man came to Concord with war record, and got a captain’s ap pointment in the militia. “He was a martinet. The first day he reviewed his company he examined every hair on their heads, every button on their caps. It was an ordeal for them. “On the whole the captain was pleased with his inspection. One thing dissatisfied him, though. His men all had clean-shaven upper lips. Some hod side whiskers, some had mutton chops, some hud goatees, some had patriotic chiri beards. There was not one who had a mustache. “The captain complimented his com pany in a short speech, and concluded by saving ; “ ‘Only one thing is lacking to make a crack, martial-looking company of you—mustaches. I want every man Jack of you to raise a mustache.’ “At this order the men looked at one another, arid a young farmer, stepping out from the ranks, saluted and said: “ ‘What color will you have them, sir?’ ” The New Orleans Picayune calls at tention to the somewhat curious fact that the English-speaking nations own nearly all the world’s productive gold mines. Thus England, with its Cana dian, Australian and South African mines, is credited with fil per cent, and the etiquette : the United States with 22 per cent., making an aggregate of S3 percent., while all the rest of the world gets the remainder of 17 per cent. According to the statistics for 1907 the amount of gold mined in the whole world was 10,- 764.078 ounces, valued at nearly $4,2UU,- 000,000, of which $3,348,000,000 worth was produced on soil held by two En glish speaking nations. This is an enormous source of power. A Fine Thought. J. G. Alden, of Aurora, Neb., wrote for a local newspaper this fine thought: “My 3-year-old son stood enraptured watching the setting of the sun. It was a glorious sunset. The great orb hung low in the western sky, and all the west was bathed in a flame of gold en light. “It was a sunset such as artists at tempt to convey to their canvas. I was busy with some trivial matter at hand when a little voice interrupted me: ‘Papa, is that our sun?’ The lad’s face was aglow with the pleasure of the sight. 1 hesitated a moment and then replied: ‘Yes, my son, that is our sun. ’ ‘And no one can take it away from us?’ he rejoined. ‘No, son, no one can take it away.’ He was satisfied and turned to his play. “But this question brought to my mind a train of thought that would not leave. How many of us go blindly through life, groping our way among the things of earth, straining oureyes to pierce the darkness rather than to en joy the light, and taking a meagre portion of our share of the pleasures of life, when it is ours to know and possess a thousand blessings of Nature put here for us by a loving Creator. Ours is the golden sunset, but we do not see it. “Ours is the sight of waving green and the bloom of the flowers, hut we heed them not. Our minds are full of sordid things of life and business, so crowded with daily cares that we miss the glories of Nature and the blessed inspiration which they bring. “We need the voice of the child to awaken us to an interest in the beau ties of God’s wonderful creation, and need to feel, as did the little lad, that the beautiful sunset was made for our enjoyment, and none can deny the sight to us. ” ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP? It Has Been Proved that Microbes Cause Baldness. Professor IJnna of Hamburg, Ger many, and Dr. Sabourand, the leading French dermatologist, discovered tliat a microbe causes baldness. The theory has time and again been amply verified through research experiments carried on under the observation of eminent scientists. This microbe lodges in the Sebur, which is the natural hair oil, and when permitted to flourish it de stroys the hair follicles and in time the pores entirely close, and the scalp grad ually takes on a shiny appearance. When this happens there is no hope of the growth of hair being revived. Dandruff is u contagious disease, which is largely duo to a destructive microbe, which when left to pursue its course causes itching scalp, falling hair and baldness. Dandruff is caused by the microbe affecting the glands which produce the sebaceous matter, which latter then unnaturally dries up and scales off. We have a remedy which will, we honestly believe, remove dandruff, ex terminate the microbe, promote good circulation in the scalp and around the hair roots and overcome baldness, so long uh there is any life left in the hair roots. We hack up this statement with our own personal guarantee that this rem edy called Rexall "93” Hair Tonic will be supplied free of all cost to the user if it fails to do as we state.
