A '"no account" man is one who has no balance in bank. In a political campaign it's telling the truth that hurts. Absence makes the heart grow fond er of a bill collector. Many a man owns a house coat who doesn't own a house. A man with a fud is all right so long as he keeps it to himself. The buz., saw won't hurt you if you don't monkey with it. Mnny a divorce has grown out of spring house-cleaning. There is quite a difference between a due bill and a billet doux. Good Intentions are alright if they iiuve sullicient backbone. If every man prollted by his own mis takes we should all be rich. There's one good tiling about eggs; they never get too fresh. It is much better to scatter seeds of kindness than to sow wild oats.

Cleaning up time is here. The re fuse of winter should be cleaned up 'and carted away or burned. This should not only be done for neatness und tidiness, but for the protection of public health. Your premises should undurgo a thorough cleaning and do not foi-tret the alleys. Plenty of lime should be sprinkled around. A Juvenii.k Opinion. Since ma's got Christian Science us boys are dead in luck No hot old mustard plasters upon our chchta are stuck; She never puts the ginger upon the stove to boil, Nor doses up us children with that old castor oil. She just says: "Look hero, children no need for you to squall, You think your stomach's aching? There's no such thing at all.' Since ma's got Christian science she doesn't use a whip To punish us, but simply takes puckers in her lip, And thinks und thinks right at us, un til she near goes blind, Aud then she says she whipped us by whipping in hur inind. That is the absent treatment, but any one can see That it doesn't make connections with such a boy as me. , But na-now he is different. When he's at home he'll say, "You children best be careful and not be bad to-day." You iust believe we're careful, 'cause pa, he says that he Will give us switching science hot from the willow tree. And, as for absent treatment, why, he says with a wink, "I'll tend to all the swltchin' ma can stand by and -think." Baltimore American. account of tho Illness of her mother, Mrs. Harriet Mcllolt.

Most people are all right in theory. The pessimist never orders spring lamb. Yon can't make a horse fast by starving him. The drinking song should be sung in liquid tones. Things are seldom what they seem to the seamstress. Many a pocketbook is filled with un receipted bills. t any rate the married woman's life is not miss spent. The natural gravitation of mankind s toward the grave. It sometimes happens that he who hesitates is found out. Spring is the glad time when the year turns over a new leaf.

From a feminine point or view a bird on the hat is worth two on toast. A woman sometimes jumps at a con clusion, only to Hod it isn't there. The man who feels that he is above criticism is generally up In tho air. The dentist is one man who believes that it pays to hurt people's feelings. The bigger the man is tne harder It is for him to squeeze out of a tight place. It Is just as disastrous to live be yond your reputation as beyond your means.

That a frog should travel a mile iu order to return to its accustomed home shows more intelligence than frogs are generally credited with. The Philadelphia Record Is responsible for the following: Three years ago a farmer named Anderson found a large frog in front During the Boer war one heard a good deal of dogs as scouts, but they have now actually been en rolled in Denmark and Belgium as part of the police force.
