"Did all your boys turn out well, slint?" asked one of them. "Yes, indeed they did."' "What's Albert doing?" "He's trying to discover a new germ," replied the father. "And Bob?" "Oh, Bob is tryin' his hand at a newe- paper an' belts' editor," was the old gentleman's reply. "And Charlie -what's he at?" He's an actor, All the time talkin' about elevatin' the stage." "And what are you doing. Jim, now all your bop are away?" asked the old friend. "Well," answered the old man, "I'm a -supporting of Albert, an' Bob an' Charlie."

The very fact that he is there likely to be d;eiliterksted than the average men is a reasee in favor of his intervention -not against it. Some tell us that he eitereises too nmeh influence when he speaks. If he exercises any more influence than is properly '.is, that is not his fault -that ss the fault of the pe,v we should. dis- enfranChise an unintelligent pew. Others say that this intervention will 'hurt religion.' If it hurts religion to bring in into contact with life and em- ploy it as a guide to hurnatiity in the selection of the rightcourse at moments of erisis, then the sooner we fatally hurt religion of that useless.descriptinm. ale better will it be for the people who are being 'gold -bricked' into paying for it.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS. Most men reckon time by paydays. Brides with sour dispositicins are apt to spoil honeymoons. Most married women are a trifle en- vious of a rich widow. Many a man who ig good has a sad look. The tastes of a millionaire may be imprisoned in a pauper's purse. A man who can dispose of his troubles for a consideration is a genius. Pride inakes some people ridiculous and prevents others from becoming so. A spinster has no love for a widow who has had three husbands.

C. M. l3ARNITZ. LAMENESS AMONG FOWLS. In the brooding season many young chickens and other poultry die of leg troubles. They. stagger, • tremble in legs, spread around and • in the last stages sit only and waste away. This is caused by too much forcing food to rush growth, the weigfit of flesh b'eing too great for legs to sup- port, orefeeding pepper, or too muck fattener instead of building food. Examination will sometimes reveal rickets, the leg bones bending, an evi- dence of lack of phosphate of lime in the ration. Lack of exercise, over- crowding and hot, bard brooder floors often bring same conditions. Unnat- ural usIder heat, instead of top heat, in Photo by C. M. 'Barnitz.

Pure water and fresh greens, phos. phate of lime and balanced rations, natural brooding and less forcing food and exercise on green runs, save young stock from such troubles. Rheumatism is rather different. It may be hereditary or complicated with congested liver or heart disease. It is often caused by damp, cold, lack of greens or feeding too much protein. The joints generally swell, enlarge, are inflamed, muscles contract, toes draw' up, shanks are hot and dry and the viclam sits. Such birds need cooling food, plenty of greens and a bed of dry sand or straw. Rubbing inflamed joints with witch hazel and placing iodide of mg. tassium in the drinking water, fifteen grains to the quart, afford relief if dis- ease has not gone too far. DON'TS.

Lady and the Baker and a Little Bit of a Surprise. It was after dark, and the French baker was nbout to close his shop when the telephone bell rang, "Mr, Ovens?" "Yes, ma'am." "This is Mrs. alniley or HickorynUt street." "Yes, Mrs. ;Holley." "I am giving a supper tonight, and I discover that I need half a dozen more rolls. Could I trouble you to send. them over?" "I'm sorry, ma'am, but 1 haven't a roll left in the store nor even a loaf of bread. We are sou clear out tonight." "This is very provoking," said Mrs. Jimley. "Are you sure you haven't anything that would do?" "There isn't a thing le the place that I would care to sell you, ma'am. Hold on, though. There's a half dozen fresh rolls on my own supper table right now. I could let you have those if you think they would do. My kids can eat crackers instead. They'd rather, any- way." "Those will do very nicely, Mr. Ovens. Will you send them over soon, please?" "Right away, ma'am. The boy has gone for the night, but I'll take them to you myself," In a minute or two he stood on her front steps ringing the bell and feeling well pleased with himself that he could do some one a kindness. Mrs. Jimley opened the door and took the packages from his hands. Then she said in icy tones: "The next time you bring any goods here, Mr. Ovens, '1 wish you would re- member to ring the basement bell. can't have tradesmen coming to the front door." -Newark News. He Knew. "If I were you," bis veg said, "I'd go to that man and telt in exactly what I thought of him. Hbed to you, and you ought to tell him that you know it. If I were you I'd let him know just how I despised him. I'd have the satisfaction of making him feel ashamed of himself." "No, my dear," he replied, "you wouldn't do anything of the kind. If you were me you'd dojust as I'm do- ing. This fellow weighs fifty pounds more than I do, and they tell me he's one of the best boxers in this town." -- Chicago Record -Herald. Her Library.

"Where were yon last night?" asked one girl of another. "I was out riding with father in his car." "But I did not know your father has an automobile."

Any irregularity of the bowels is always dangerous, and should be attended to at once, for if the bowels cease to work properly, all the other organs become deranged. Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills work on the bowels gently and naturally, and will cure the worst eases of Constipation. Mrs, A. Cumming, Manchester, Ont., writes: -"I have been troubled with Constipation for over five years, aryl reel it my duty to let you know thAt your Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills have aired me.
