A good book and a good woman are:
..xeellent things for those who know
iow to appreciate their value. There
ire men, however, who judge of both
om the beauty of their covering.
The quotation: “If you have flowers
r me, scatter them in my pathway
vhile I live, that T may enjoy their
ieauty and inhale their fragrance,”
.ontains a beautiful sentiment, and
rartain it is that we are apt to forget
he living, and keep our affections pent
1p to be poured out only after death.
for those that have gone we can do
sothing, but for the living we can do
auch.
Girls, don’t flirt and get acquainted
vith young men your parents know
iothing about. Do not sit in the par-
or making worsted dogs and all such
rash, while your dear mother goes
rotting around the house all day with
he help of one girl to do the work of
.ix, and going with a shabby old hat
.nd cloak that you girls may wear silk
{resses, etc. Oh, girls! When those
usy hands are folded quietly over that
oving heart that has ceased to beat,
your hearts will ache,and you will
think if mother would only come back
he would be loved and petted as never.
“sefore.
THAT BOY.
There are many things that he does
aot know. Remember that he is only
+ boy. You was a child once. Call to
aind what you thought, and bow you
elt. Give that boy a chance. Keep
ear to him in sympathy. Be his
-hum. Do not make too many cast
on laws. Rule with a velvet hand.
lelp him have a “good time.” Answer
iis foolish questions. Be patient with
vis pranks. Laugh at his jokes. Bweat
ver his conundrums. Limber up your
iignity with a game of ball or a half
iay’s fishing. You can win his heart
«tterly, and hold him steady in the path
hat leads higher up. That boy has a
oul, and a destiny reaching high above
he mountain peaks. He is worth a
aillion times his weight in gold, if you
lo right by him.
COURTESIES.
Much of the pleasure of social inter-
-ourse depends upon a strict observ-
nce of the little eourtesies and
.menities of life. Too many save their
weetest smiles and choicest words and
icest attentions for strangers, while
\eir friends are put off with the most
neager crumbs of consideration and
woliteness.
This is nothing but a miserable piece
t acting, and whoever assumes the
-»le is bound to be found out sooner or
iter. It is in the home that all that is
pst in life should be diffused. There
hould be kindness, forbearance, gentle
wnners and loving forethought. Not
nly to strangers, but to the near and
tear ones should the treasures of life
oe distributed. Then when one goes
at into the world he is hisown natural
sf. When he does a noble deed, or
ives to others an elevating thought, he
ut gives expression to a nature en-
<'ched by the cultivation of the pure
.nd good and true.
Depend upon it that there is habit in
anners as well as in tastes and mor-
ls. One cannot be a boor at his own
reside and a gentleman at his neigh- |
wor’s. One cannot be a tender, chari-
able, sympathetic woman abroad if
he is a snarling, querulous creature in
er own home.
KINDNESS UNSPOKEN.
Do you know that the world is full of
.indness that never wasspoken? That
3 not much better than no kindness at
Jl. The fuel in the stove makes the
room warm, but there are piles of
‘allen trees lying on rocks and on top
+f hills where nobody can get them;
‘hese do not make anybody warm.
You might freeze to death for want of
vood in plain sight of these fallen
vrees if you had no means of getting
he wood home and making a fire of it.
fust so in a family ; love is what makes
parents and children, the brothers and
sisters happy. But if they take care
never to say a word about it, if they
keep it a profound secret as if it were
a crime, they will not be much happier
than if there was not any love among
them ; the house will seem cold, even
in summer, and if you live there you
will envy the dog when you cali him
poor fellow.

E. H, MILLER SAYS HE HAS AT LAST DIS-
COVERED A POSITIVE CURE FOR
INDIGESTION,
“For years,” said the above druggist,
“I have been waiting for some one to
discover a remedy that really will cure
dys epsia.
recently learned that a new rem-
edy, Pepsikola Tablets, had been placed
on the market, and on investigation I
found that at last there is a remedy
that surely will cure.
“I laid in a big supply because I knew
that as soon as the pe Sple began to
know about this remarkable remedy
there would be a big demand for it, and
it is selling beyond my expectations. n
It is not often a druggist sells a new
remedy on a positive guarantee, but
unless cured of nervousness, dizzy
spells, sour stomach, coated ton go
palpitation and other sym ptoms of
pepsia, Mr. Miller will hand back hd
money cheerfully and without argu-
ment.
No one should hesitate on trying a
25-cent box of Pepsikola Tablets, as
they will not cost you a penny should
they fail to relieve and cure the very
Worst case of Indigen ion and dyspepsia.

THE JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION.
Buildings and Grounds Will Make
an Attractive Exposition City.
NorroLk, VaA.—On the southern
shores of historic Hampton Roads,
eight miles from the city of Norfolk,
the Jamestown Ter-Centennial Expo-
sition is rapidly nearing completion.
Every department of the work is being
carried on with marvelous speed, and
what was only a year ago an attractive-
ly layed out park, has become an Ex-
position beautiful, with immense ex-
hibit palaces, State and Government
buildings, all under roof, and for the
most part of permanent construction.
The Auditorium and Convention Hall,
one of the principal buildings of the
Exposition, is entirely complete, and is
being used temporarily for the offices
of the Governor of Works. of the Ex-
position, and his able corps of assist-
ants, who are carrying on the work
with such credit.
The State’s exhibit palace, the largest
and most imposing structure on the
grounds, containing more than 350,000
~quare feet of exhibit space, is also
complete, and will be turned over by
the contractors in a few days to the
Exposition Company, at which time
the installation of the various exhibits
of the resources of the different states
will begin.
The Commercial pier of the Expo-
sition, extending out into Hampton
Roads for a distance of some 2,000 feet,
was finished several weeks ago, and is
now being used to bring in the con-
struction material for the many build-
ings now in the course of erection.
The various State buildings, grouped
along the water front of the Expo-
sition, are going up with remarkable
rapidity, those of Rhode Island, New
Jersey and Connecticut being ready
for occupancy, and those of Virginia,
Maryland, Massachusetts and Ohio al-
most as far advanced. The many at-
tractions of the “War Path,” that will
correspond with the “Pike” or “Mid-
way” of former Expositions, presents a
lively picture of activity.
Push and progress are everywhere in
evidence, and the work on the grounds
and general landscape design, under |
the careful supervision of the archi-
tects in charge, together with the ad-
vanced state of construction of the |
buildings, gives every assurance that
the Jamestawn Ter-Centennial Expo-
sition will be completed in every détail
for the opening date, April 26th, 1807.
