There is only one mistake that
cai be made in making coffee, and

it is a drink for the gods, but if
it is kept at a high degree of heat
for thirty mraut 's its character
is entirely chu iged, and it be
come almost jMjisonous. Of the
people who ov.jrcook coffee in tins
way some d it through ignor

through grood in order to make
it go further and produce a larg

The Value of Example.
To have your child truthful, be
truthful.
To have him temperate, be tem
perate in all things.
To have him kind to others, be
yourself kind to others.
Prescribe healthful amuse
ments and so far as you can take
part in them.
Prove to him by your life that
a good name is to be chosen be
fore great riches.
Teach him that riches are not
to be despised, but should never
be got by doing harm to others;
that when acquired should be
treated as a trust, not as a hoard.
To have him honest, present to
him in 3'ourself a living example
of honesty. The chief part of a
child's knowledge comes through
observation. Acts mean more to
him than speech. Philadelphia
Inquirer.

Vour Watch U a Compata.
"Most men who own a good
watch," said a jeweler, "think
they know all about it. They
have the number fixed in their
memory in case it is Htolen. They
could probably pick it out from
fifty other watches with their
eyes shut. But how many men
know that their watch is a com
pass ana will tell north from south
as accurately as it will tell the
timeofdavr Stanley, the explor
er, did not know it until he hud
groped his way through the dark
continent and met a Belgian sail
or on the coast. Every watch is
a compass. If you point the hour
hand to the sun, the south is ex
actly halfway between the hour
and the figure XII on the dial.
Suppose, for iDtance, it is 4 o'
clock. Point the hand indicating
4 to the sun and II on the watch
is exactly south. If it is 8 o'clock
point the hand indicating 8 to the
sua and the figure X on the dial
is due south. No man need get
lost if he carries a watch."

Important Law.
Below are the provisions of a
law in Pennsylvania that are of
general interest, but with which
persons in many sections do not
seem to be familiar:
"Every person who shall will
fully or maliciously kill, maim or
disfigure any horses, cattle dogs
or other domestic animals of an
other person, or shall maliciously
administer poisonous substance,
with the intent that the same
should be taken or swallowed by
them, shall be found guilty of a
misdemeanor and being thereof
convicted, shall be sentenced to
pay a fine not exceeding $500 and
to undergo an imprisonment by
separate or solitary confinement
at labor, not exceeding three
years, or both. Provided, that
the provisions of this act shall
not apply to the killing of any an
imal taken or found in the act of
actually destroying any other an
imal." Pleasant aid Harmless.

We have decided to solve this problem by putting a price on every article in our store, which will
show the public that C. B. Crum is not the only man who will give bargains. We were
able to buy this stock at a very low figure and mean to give you the
benefit ot our lucky deal.
We must make room for Spring Goods and positively will not carry these goods over until next season,
if a low rock bottom price will move them.
