SUNDAY. MARCH 30.
Society
THE FOOL'S PRAYER.
The royal feast was done; the king
Sought ' some new sport to banish
care.
Lnd to his jester cried: "Sir Fool,
Kneel now and make for us a
prayer!"
The jester doffed his cap and bells
And stood the mocking court be
fore;
They could not see the bitter smile-
Behind the painted grin he wore.
He bowed his head and bent his
knee
Upon the monarch’s silken stool;
His pleading voice arose: “O, Lord,
Be merciful to me, a fool!
“No pity, Lord, could change the
heart
From red with wrong to white as
wool;
The rea must heal the sin; but,
Lord,
Pe merciful to me, a fool!
“’Tis not by guilt the onward sweep
Of truth and right, O Lord, we
stay;
Tis by our follies that so long
We hold the earth from heaven
away.
‘These clumsy feet, still in the mire,
Go crushing blossoms without end;
Iheoe hard, well-meaning hands we
th rust
Among the heartstrings of a friend.
‘The ill-timed truth we might have
kept—
Who knows how sharp it pierced
and stung?
The word we had not sense to say—
Who knows how grandly it had
rung.
"Our faults no tenderness should ask,
The chastening stripes must cleanse
them all;
But tor our blunders —oh, in shame
Before the eyes of heaven we fall.
Barth bears no balsam for mis
takes;
Men crown the knave and scourge
the tool
That did His will; but Thou, O Lord,
Be merciful to me, a fool!”
The room was hushed. In silence
rose
The king, and sought his gardens
cool.
And walked apart and murmured low:
"Be merciful to me, a fool!”

from the Netherlands, sang.
The bride is very popular here,
where she haß been known since in
fancy, and is one of the cleverest and
most attractive young ladies of the
winter colony.

nuptials were: William Corcoran
Eustis* Mrs. Benjamin Hellen and
Mis* Louise Hellen, of Washington;

“Mnrie” writes. “I would like a
remedy for a pimply, oily skin. I suffer
from constipation, headache and indi
gestion.”
Answer: Get from your druggist three
grain sulpherb tablet- nnd take accord
ing to directions. These table's are
packed in sealed tubes and contain full
directions for using. I have found them
to be the most reliable in such ail
ments as arise from constipation. They
are made of sulphur, cream of tartar nno
herb medicine- and if taken regularly
will cure your consUpation and purify
the blood, thus causing your skin to be
come clear. These are fine for children,
as they do not sicken.

“Sadie” says: “T misplaced the pre
scription you sent me for dandruff and

at any well stocked drug store. Use this
according to directions and you will soon
be cured of all diseases of the hair and
scalp.

Answer: Many ladies would he much
more beautiful if they were somewhat
fleshier and as increased weight is pos
sible it is. the duty of every woman to
be always at her best. Begin talking
kind, and make you a most liberal allowance
on it—no matter how old or worn it may be.

me?”
Answer: The best scientific and sat
isfactory treniment for you Is tablets
’iripeptine, which you can get at any
well-storked drug store. They are
packed in sealed cartons with full direc

appendicitis could be prevented if trlo
peptine was used regularly.
