Based upon a prescription which cured people considered incurable, HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA Unites the best-known vegetable reme- dies, by such a combination, proportion and process as to have curative power pe- culiar to itself. Its cures of scrofula, eczema, psoriasis, and every kind of humor, as well as ca- tarrh and rheumatism—prove HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA the best blood purifier ever produced. Its cures of dyspepsia, loss of appetite and that tired teeling make it the greatest stomach tonic and strength-restorer the world has ever known, HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA is a thoroughly good medicire.

Now, re- member the old saying that ‘‘A fool and his money are easily parted.”” Nephew—I don’t know about that. I’ve had to coax you for more than a week for this ! 5 (LLLA STO Deuograt Bellefonte, Pa., Dec. 22, 1905. ( Concluded from page 6.) “to be in spirit with the season,” he had apologized to Miley. These he placed in Bessie's hands and watched the expression of delight that illumi- nated the child's face. She had hardly done thanking him when the door opened and Faith entered. Her eyes met Desmond's in one long, searching glance, then she turned white and leaned against the wall. Rob let his hat fall to the floor as he hastened to- ward the agitated girl. “Faith! Faith Haskins!” “Is it you—and here?” “Oh, Rob, I never expected to see you again!” she sobbed, burying her face in the folds of her shawl. The sight of an old friend had thrown her off her guard ar ° brought back to her sharply and keenly ail her trouble and loneliness and made her strangely weak. When Clint came in a few minutes later he found his sister in the arms of what appeared to him to be a big buf- falo. Never having heard that buffa- loes were in the habit of coming into cabins and hugging people, he ap- proached Bessie, whose teeth had just decapitated a candy rabbit, and asked in an awed whisper: “What's got Ifaith? her?” “I dess not,” Bessie whispered back as well as she could with her mouth full. “He’s awful nice, an’ I dess he’s a relation to Santa Claus. See what he dibbed me!” holding up her pres- ents. Returning from the Dblacksmith’s shop, Ike and Jim left the repaired wheel by the wagon and stole quietly up to the shack. As they passed one of the windows they looked in to see if their victim were there. With sur- prise they beheld him sitting by Faith’s side, holding both her hands in his. The firelight revealed to their aston- ished sight the two happy faces, while two equally happy children were sit- ting on the floor at their feet. The fellows, realizing that their joke bad “missed fire,” started to walk away, but Rob, catching sight of them, went to the door and insisted on their coming in. After they had partially he cried. Is it hurtin’ recovered from their embarrassment— | and thc genial atmosphere did much toward restoring them to their natural selves—they distributed their gifts and received the young lady’s blushing thanks for all their kindness to her. Desmond said: “Pretty good joke you tried to play on me tonight, boys,” with a slap on their shoulders, at the same time laugh- ing heartily. “But you see how it has turned out. Only I'll have to explain. This little woman, Faith Haskins, and I used to go to school together away back near the old Tippecanoe in In- diana. “We grew up as lovers, but her father thought I wasn’t of much ac- count except to pick an old guitar or play the fiddle, so when he had taken his family off to Nebraska he wouldn’t allow Faith to write to me, and of course I lost track of her. But I loved her just the same, and that I might become more worthy gave up my idle habits, taught school for a few terms and earned the money to give me a start here in Kansas on this timber claim and am in a pretty fair way to make my living, as you know. I find my little school friend has not forgot- ten me, and since she had the audacity to ‘jump my claim’ in my absence I think I may as well keep her here. Now, as you fellows have already had a ‘finger in the pie,” I want you to go with us tomorrow to visit the judge over at the courthouse. Something’s going to take place there that will cel- ebrate Christmas in proper style. It was kind of you to see to repairing the wagon, but there won't be any use for it going to Uncle Ethan's ranch, for Clint and Bessie will have to stay and help us be happy. You'll go, won't you, boys?” ! “Go? In course we willl We'll see you and her through, if the earth slips a cog. We will, you bet! By ginger, but you're a lucky galoot! I wish ole Christmus ’d drop a jewel like that inter my stockin’s.” BAKED HAM. New Feature of Holiday Feast Bor- rowed From the South. It goes without saying that his maj- esty the turkey will grace the Christ- mas dinner table, but for variety and to give a new note to this feast it is an excellent idea to follow the southern fashion of introducing ham to share honors ith tho maicmimes faced The ham’ may be either hot or cold and should be baked to a crisp brown. Few there are who understand the art of preparing ham in this way. First it should be partly baked with the thick outside skin left on, and then this should be removed and the fat stuck full of cloves and left to brown in a slow oven. The spice imparts a deliciously delicate flavor and should not be taken out, but left in the ham just as it comes from the oven. No sauce is needed with ham cooked after this rule—New York Herald. Christmas a Lucky Birthday. There is an old superstition that to be born on Christmas day is to be lucky all one’s life, and in Silesia there is a belief that a boy born on Christmas day must be brought up a lawyer or he will become a thief. The Origin of Christmas Greens. At the Saturnalia, the heathen proto- type of Christmas, it was the Roman custom to decorate the house with ev- ergreens. This was done to give the woodland spirits a refuge from the cold. Christmas Island. Christmas island, in the Pacific ocean, and Christmas mountain, on the Antarctic continent, were so named because discovered on the 25th of De- cember. A Large Christmas Pie. One of the largest Christmas gifts and altogether the largest pie on record was one sent by the Earl of Lonsdale to King George III. of England. The pie weighed 576 pounds, and it contain- ed 9 geese, 2 ducks, 4 fowls (the kind not stated in the records), 6 pigeons, 6 wild ducks, 3 teal, 2 starlings, 12 par- tridges, 15 woodcock, 2 guinea fowls, 3 snipe, 6 plover, 3 water hens, 1 wild goose, 1 curlew, 40 yellow hammers, 15 sparrows, 15 chaffinches, 2 larks, 4 thrushes, 12 fieldfares, 6 blackbirds, 20 rabbits, 1 leg of veal, 1 ham, 3 bushels of flour and 28 pounds of butter. In the language of the nursery rhyme concerning the four and twenty black- birds baked in a pie, “wasn’t that a pretty dish to set before the king?” Christmas Gifts of Radium. Last Christmas in London it was quite the thing to give Christmas gifts of radium. Of course only an infinitesi- mal particle of the precious substance was included in the present, and even then the gifts cost all the way from $10 to $50. An instrument called the spinthariscope, which consists of a small case about the size of that con- taining a finger ring, contained the ra- dium particle, which was placed under a small lens like a microscope. By taking the contrivance into a darkened room and looking through the eyepiece ene could see varying lights flashing.
