THE MORTGAGE.
Wo worked through spring and winter, through
summer and through fall,
But tho mortgage worked tho hardest and the
etcadicat of all.
It worked on nights and Sundays, It worked each
holidav;
It settled down among us and it nover wont away.
Whatever we kept from It aoemed moBt as bad as
theft;
It watched us every minute and It ruled us right
and loft.
Tho rust and blight were with us sometimes, and
sometimes not;
But the dark-browed, scowling mortgage wns for
ever on the Bpot.
The weevil and tho cut-worm they went na well
as came,
The mortgage stayed forever-eating hearty just
the same.
It nailed up evory window, Btood guard at every
door,
And happiness and sunshine oust lots with us no
more.
’Till with i’niling crops and sickness we got stalled
upon the crude,
And then enmou day among us when the interest
wasn’t paid,
And thero came a sharp foreclosure and I kind o’
lost my hold,
And grow weary and discouraged—and bo the
farm was sold.
And tho children left nnd scattered, when they
hardly yet wore grown;
My wifo she pined und perished, and I found my
self ulone.
What she died of was a "mystery,” and tho doctors
never knew,
But I knew Bhe died of mortgage—just as woll'a I
wanted to,
If to trace a hidden sorrow were within tho doc
tor's art
They’d found a mortgage lying on that poor wo
man’s heart.
Worm or beetle, drouth or tempest, on a far
mer’s land may fall,
But for flrst-clasB ruination trust a mortgage
’gainst them all.

Brown’s Partner.
H, Leo In American Magazine.
“Here’s the whole thing in a nut
shell, ” Baid Brown to me. “Iam now
twenty-eight years old, have my own
business, and have brought it to such a
state that I have decided to take a
partner.”
“Take one,” answered I.
“There’s the rub,” he gave back.
“My partner must be such an all-round
knowing one that I’m afraid I’ll have
hard work to fill the position.
"My partner must bo able to make
laws and to enforce them, must bo able
to carry out complicated chemical
work, must be a skilled mechanic, must
know something of economics, must be
able to buy wares of all kinds with due
consideration of my finances, and must
be able to do tailoring of a kind if nec
essary.”
“Hold on, Brown!” said I. “Are
you dippy, as the vulgarians say?”
“No, ” replied Jje. “I want a wife.
Look around among your friends and
see if any one man among them could
do all that a good housewife should be
able to do. She must make just laws
for the family and enforce them. She
must understand the complicated pro
cesses of cooking. Making, mending,
washing, ironing and otherwise caring
for tho clothing of a family require
mechanical skill. Bringing up a child
properly requires far more knowledge
and wisdom than selling dry goods of
standard makes and prices year after
year. Where is more science and skill
required than in the sick-room? And if
the wife does not know how to do all
of these things how can she direct tho
work of her paid help, especially if the
help knows less than she does?”
,"My dear boy,” said I, "do tho way
90 per cent, of us do—marry and trust
to luck.”

Says Auto Curses Country.
Syracuse, N. Y., June 5.—There are
so many men coursing about the coun
try in automobiles, and their pleasure
absorbs such a large share of the pro
ductive capital of the country, that
Chancellor James R. Day, of Syracuse ’
University, believes it is becoming a
question if the automobile is not a curse
to the country.
The chancellor was speaking to the
graduating class of the university to
day on self-sacrifice and self-denial,
and ha choso the automobile ns a
“broad nnd apparent illustration” of a
luxury that too often is not sacrificed.
"Young mechanics and clerks and
business men,” he said, “who need all
of their capital, are mortgaging their
homes by the thousands and losing
their positions often by their infatua
tion with this form of pleasure.
“It is said that above five hundred
million dollars are invested in the auto
mobile trade, and this enormous capi
tal is non-productive. That is, it adds
comparatively nothing to the wealth of
the people, but, on the contrary, ab
sorbs it. It means 90 per cent, of
wasted money and wasted time.
“I know the criticism that will be
Bure to come because of what will be
called an attack on a great industry,
but I address myself to the abuse of
self-indulgence in a good thing. I em
phasize self-denial.
“If you want to know,” he said,
“why men marry less than of old, per
haps the secret is in the false whim of
supporting a wife, He cannot aiford
to support a wife, the bachelor Bays.
No woman ought to consent to be such
a wife. She ought to say: ‘I am not
seeking or consenting to be supported.
There will bo two of us. If I cannot
earn as much as you, I can save more.
We will plan together.’
"The greatest womun is tho woman
who brings to a man a home. She is
greater than tho suffragette or the fe
male temperance lecturer.”

Numberless men, alleged to be hurt
by overwork, do not work half enough.
Their trouble comes from superabun
dance of leisure and activity. They
yawn through three or four hours in
the office or counting-room; are too in
dolent to walk up town; eat too heavy
and rich a dinner; go out afterwards to
see merchants, bankers and the like,
and join boon companions who walk
around billiard tables or sit at cards,
and keep very thirsty until the drowsy
steeples toll 2 and 3. This is overwork,
but overwork in the wrong direction, 1
and of a very different kind. Over
work covers a multitudes of bad habits;
it is made a scapegoat for countless
transgressions; it is very often a shal
low pretense, a miserable sham. While
there are far too many who overwork,
there are a great many that break
down and kill themselves by laziness,
self-indulgence and dissipation.
GO RIGHT AT IT.

Will Show You How;
Get at the root of the trouble.
Rubbing an aching back may relieve
it,
But it won’t cure it.
You must reach the root of it—the
kidneys.
Doan’s Kidney Pills f?o right at it;
Reach the cause; relieve the pain.
They cure, too, so Newnan people
say.
Mrs. Mary E. Phillips,26 Salbide ave.,
Newnan, Ga., siws: “I have boen using
Doan’s Kidney Pills off and on for sev
eral months and have received the best
of results. For three years my kidneys
were in a disordered condition and
caused my back to bo so weak that at
times I was helpless as a child. The
kidney secretions were also irregular in
action, and if allowed to stand con
tained much sediment. When I heard
about Doan’s Kidney Pills I immedi
ately bought a box at Lee Bros.’ drug
store, and can say that I never took a
remedy that brought more satisfactory
results. My kidney complaint disap
peared in a short time and my health
improved in every way. I know that
Doan’s Kidney Pills act up to all the
claims made for them.”
