We call special attention to the ad- vertisement of the Swanson Rheumatic Cure Company, which appears else- where in this issue. This company manufactures the celebrated “Five Drops” remedies, which are’ indeed very valuable preparations, as we know by experience, having tried several of them with the best of results. Fur- thermore, we know by experience that the company is composed of excep- tionally nice people to deal with. Their goods are sold by Druggist E. H. Mil- Miller. The “Five Drops” salve is an exceptionally meritorious article. Try it if you want something superlatively good in the salve line. The Limit. A Scotch - minister instructed clerk, who sat among the congregation his during service. to give a low whistle if | _ anything in his sermon appeared ex- aggerated. On hearing his minister say, “In those days there were snakes fifty feet long,” the clerk gave a sub- dued whistle. “T should have said thirty feet,” ad- ded the minister. Another whistle from the clerk. “On consulting Thompson’s Concor- dance,” said the minister in confusion, “I see the length is twenty feet.” Still another whistle; whereon the preacher leaned over and said in a stage whisper: “Ye can whistle as much as ye like, MacPherson, but I'll not take anither foot of for anybody.” —Ex What Was The Text?

A small yoke trimming of the velvet covered the upper part of the and was outlined with a mixed tinsel braid. A narrow braid- ing girdled the waist, and the cuffs were ornamented in the same way. It had a cape attachment plaited on the shoulders, and attached by other plaits at waist line, giving a dolman appear- ance to the back.”—Ex. lt A Dream Within a Dream. chest, If all who hate would love And The stars'that swing above us Would brighten in the blue. If cruel words were kisses, us, all our loves were true, And every scowl a smile, A better world than thisis Would hardly be worth while. If purses would untighten To meet a brother's need, The load we bear would lighten Above the grade of greed. If those who whine would whistle, And those who languish, laugh, The rose would rout the thistle, The grain outrun the chaff. If hearts were only jolly, If grieving were forgot, And tears and melancholy Were things that now are not, Then love would kneel to duty, And all the world would seem A bridal bower of beauty— A dream within a dream. —Ex. TO LAND OWNERS:—We have printed and keep in stock a supply of trespass notices containing extracts from the far-reaching trespass law pass- ed at the 1905 session of the Pennsyl- vania Legislature. The notices are printed on good cardboard with blank line for signature, and they will last for years in all kinds of weather. Every and owner should buy some of them, as the law requires land owners to post their lands if they want the protection of the latest and best trespass law ever passed.

Edgar took off his beautiful light overcoat and set to work helping Nellie repair the damage. And I tell you his big strong hands and arms made things fly.
