FRIDAY JANUARY 14, 1911
THE WOODS
BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH
BROTHERS AND SONS.
O N n dirty door nt n slimy bar In
the anteroom of hell
I have seen them stand with a devil’s
leer, I have heard the tales they
tell—
I have heard them brag of the brutish
things, I have heard them boast
of shame,
Till I longed again for the Jewish
God, for the God who smote with
flame.
And I wondered much If there lingered
still not a dream of boyhood land.
Not n tender thought of a mother's
kiss or a touch of sister’s hand.
For we wander far, and the years go
by, and the boyhood vision fades.
Yet we are the sons of the mothers of
men and brother to all the maids.
And it Is not there in the wild alone
that the souls of men forget;
In the house of pride, on the polished
stair, where the gilded ones are
met,
I have heard the tale that is often
told on the dirty bar-room floor
While the idle smiled, and the lounger
laughed, and the bestial asked for
more.
N 1
For tho thing we nre is the thing we
tiro, not the tiling m garments
new;
•And the root that (Its is the tailor’s
coat, but the man Inside is you.
It is such as I. It is such as you, that
have made the jests and Jndo«—
Yet we are the sons of the mothers of
men and brother to nil the maids.
Yea. tin* sons we are of n motherhood,
of a mother-love, divine.
And T can n »t slander tills mother
yours—if l do 1 slander mine;
Yea. tin* brothers nl’e of a sisterhood
of the sisters loved or lone,
j And you <•1111 not slander tin* least and
say (liar the world shall spare

Help Yourself.
The Australian sense of humor Is
well developed in private life, but in
official circles it is often shut out by
red tupe harriers. For instance, it tvos
most unfortunate that the federal gov
ernment, which 1ms caused a storm by
raising legislators’ salary without
reference to taxpayers, should have
indorsed the following huge poster on
behalf of the second peace loan: “He’p
the Digger—Help Your Country—Help
Yourself." When the humor of this
announcement was recognized by
press and public, it lost Its popularity
with the government, which had no
wish to he reminded that it hr.d al
ready set a good example in the urt
of helping oneself.

days I will sho e horses for $1.75 j

Marchman’s Pharmacy, Druggists
—all in your favor
1 he new plan inaugurated in our store should interest
you particularly if you are interested in saving money
for the many things you would like to have, and at the
same time have the best for your table.
The saving is YOURS-not ours. If we took the risk
of unpaid acconnts, paid extra bookkeeping help, kept
a delivery track, etc., we would, necessarily, charge it
into pur prices which you would pay. This extra ex
pense would come out of your pocket but would add
nothing to our profit.
Now, that we have eliminated all that, our prices are
much lower. We do not make any more; it stays in
your pocket. You save it!
It’s all in your favor
