A SUM AND A SIN.
Itow Bessie Jones hated arithmetic!
And site couldn't seers to learn it, either.
The very simplest sum in the book was
e puzzle to her. 1f Big Brother in juke
would say. "How much are twoad two,
Bess?" poor Bessie would be guile as
likely to say "live" or "Mx" as four.
Then Big Brother would patiently take
two pieces of something which was
handy ',Besio preferred Gundy from Big
Brother's pocket', (Ind put it with two
other pieces, and show stupid little Bessie
how they all together made fon•.
"Oh, yes," Bessie would cheerfully
say, "of course it is four, Brother; I'll
be sure to know the next time." Then
when the next time Canto it would bo
the sante old wrong answer.
Bessie wasn't stupid over her other
lessons. Site could spell as well as any
one; indeed, she was the star speller in
the school, and sometimes when com-
pany came, at home, the fancily were
tempted to "show oft' Bessio's powers
along that line, and it wits very funny to
hear her spell readily quite long and
sometimes difficult words.
Also she was 'fond of her geography,
and sometimes could tell where places
were which she had studied about and
which her another had forgotten.
This only proves that, just because she
couldn't add and multiply
and subtract.
l
Bessio was not so stupid. after all. Bu
i
it made her feel kindly to be dull and
slow at figures, while her chum, DaLsy,
as
was quick quick could be.
"Never mind," said Daisy, soothingly,
"you know 1 didn't know where Den-
mark was, nor even what was Iho capital
of Ohio. One Mlle girl can't know every-
thing, and if you know all about g'og-
rophy, you can't know 'rithmetic, too.'
Still Bessie mourned, because arith-
metic appeared on the blackboard and
the other studies didn't.
\\ hen the other little girls were called
to the blackboard to "do their sums,"
Resin was always left behind, and for
that very reason it seemed the nicest
thing in the world to be able to stand
up at the board with the others.
One day Bessio carpo in at recess to
get something from her desk, and (hero
do Daisy's desk, next to hers, was a
scrap of paper with some figures on 11.
Bessie looked at it, and there in neat
little squares were the next day's sums
a'1 (lgured out, in Daisy's best figures.
" \fy 1 ain't Daisy smart?" sighed
Bessie to herself. "1 wish I was smart,
too."
Then something seemed to whisper in
her ear : "If you copy Daisy's figures
the teacher will think you aro smart,
ton."
As swift as the thought was the art.
Sho snatched the paper, and, silting
down at her desk, hastily copied a few
of the sums on to a piece of paper in tier
own book.
When the time camp for arithmetic,
and the teacher called for some one to
do the first sum on the board, up went
Bessie's hand with the others.
Out of surprise at seeing her hand the
leacher asked her to work it out on the
board.
Carried away in her heart with the
honor which she long had wanted but
never before received, Bessie forgot the
way in which she bad gained what. she
knew. Bessie started for the board ; the
very switch of her short skirls and toss
of the big bow of ribbon on icer hair
spoke of her pride and joy.
Once at the board she spread open her
book as she had seen the others do, and
copied oft the figures from her slip of
paper in as neat a way as she could.
\\•hen the teacher stcod to examine
the sum, she saw that it was wrong.
"Why, Bessie, dear, this isn't right,"
she said.
"Its the right answer," replied Bessie
stoutly.
"The answer is right. but the way yell
have figured It would never give that
answer; how did you ever get it so?"
"I del -don't care; It was the way
D -D -Doisy had it," (stuttered Bessie, be-
ginning to be frightened.,
"'The way Daisy had It? 1 don't un-
derstand you," said the 'ear ler, looking
rkeely at the trembling iiessie. "1 think
yon had better siny atter school and tell
inc all about i1."
Poor Bessie 1 Where. was Iho glory
now of Mewing off how much she knew
1n arithmetic?
\Wlien tine teacher faced the little cub
pril after school. 1t was a very tearful,
very humble, little Bessie, and it was n
very pathetic little story of longing,
temptntinn and yielding.
"fear had better learn the lesson now,
lillle Iles+ie," said the teacher. "Than
wait until you are older and do some-
thing more evil than this frnn the seine
mice, Noosing which we gain dlstion-
•stty ever, ever makes up for the sin of
t.n getting It, and It is better to be
know n ns saes' and dull in arithmetic all
your life Than pass off some one else's
work DS ynllrs."
Anil Bessie remembered, and, although
Fin is sown up now, and is sllll slow
ut arithnhetie, she has never tried to
"Meow off' in something of which she
knows nothing.
T111: SCOTCH JUROR.
In Scotland In a civil case jurymen
get 10 shillings ($2.50 a day for their
services, anti the litigants roust in nddt-
lion provide them with lunch. If Iwo
rases ate tried ccn'eeutitely on one day.
and the same jurymen officiate. they get
1) shillings for each case. But the most
important difference hetween n an Eng-
lish and a Scottish jury is this : :1n Eng-
lish jury when returning their verdict
nut..% be unanimous, and if they fail to
sense after n certain length of lime they
r.te dismissed) and the whole proceedings
ate begun again "de novo' bef"re n
fresh juy. This is a niost expensive
node of administering justice. In civil
rases, in order to avoid this result, the
litigants sometimes ngreo to accept the
serdiet of a majority. In Scotland the
jury can always give a verdlet by a
majority in civil (•ns(.+ after the lapse of
three hours.—Clituuben' Journal.

PALE AS A CORPSE.
Dr. Williams' Pink /ills Brought Bark
the Ruddy Glow of Health.
Thousands of yssing 6tea ng girls
have pale, pasty couip.exxms; dtstiess-

St ii etimes they are unable to sleep:
their nerves are unstrung; they aro lan-
guid, breathless and the heart palpi-
tates violently at the least exertion —
that's antrncia—and it may develop into
ocnsumption unless promptly attended
to. Antenna means bloodlessness. Dr.
Williams' Ink Pills sake pure, redbrood—that's the secret of their success.
Miss Winnie Allen, \tontreul, Que.,
,says:—"1 was so weak and run down
that my friends thought 1 was going
into consumption. 1 was as pale as a
corpse, had no appetite and did not
sleep well. The least exertion tired

vised loo to lake Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills and after using them for a few
weeks 1 am again enjoying good health

weak, sickly girl should take Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make new.

"Dr. Williams' pink Pills for Pale Peo-

WITCHCRAFT KITE.
Girl's Body Stolen From Grave, Bones
Puh•erited.
The Naples (Italy) Municipal Council is
being prosecuted for a ghastly crime
committed by unknown ghouls in a cem-
etery.
A little girl was buried there in July,
1905, and twelve months later it was
arranged to transfer the remains to a
niche in the little mortuary chapel. At
lite exhumation suspicion was aroused
I v the extraordinary light weight of the
c ilia, which, on being opened, was
f :and to contain only the child's skull
wrupped in straw, with the customary
b Atte, contaiing particular.; of the de-
ceased. Professors Antonelli end Fimt-
ani, who examined the head, declared
that it had been ruthlessly torn from the
trunk soon after death.
The police investigations have resulted
in ttie discovery that the girls body was
disinterred and the bones pulverized to
servo for the rites of necromancy and
witchcraft which are still so much in
vogue among superstitious peasantry of
that region.
As the actual malefactors have not
been brought to justice, the parents are
prosecuting the Town Council.

DOWNFALL OF SOUR.LAKE

Once- Used Again for Growing
Colton.
The glories of the oil boom days of
Sour Lake, 'texas, are passing away.
Now the big frame buile1ing known as
Miller's Hotel is being removed, says a
writer in the New York Sun,
It was erected at the height of the
boom, when fabulous prices were being
charged for everything. In those days
much of the business of the town was
carried on in tents.
Tenses where the price of a night's bed
ranged from $1 to $5 were ut.nnerous.
Even Then the best bed was an uncom-
fortable cot. But when the weather was
had the lents were better than lite open
air, and the taverns made small fortunes
for their keepers.
Then carne the period when the boom-
ers thought that Sour Lake was destine.(
to become a great city. It had already
grown from a village of perhaps fifty
inhabitants to a town of probably six
thousand people. The erection of more
substantial structures had begun, and
one of the list of these was Miller's
Ilotel.

some of the laud in the Spindle Top field,
near Beaumont, reached in the heyday
of Is 011c
t excitement, hal it was a pretty
stiff price to be paid for land which only
a sew months before could have been
bought for *5 an acre.
THEN THE COLLAPSE.
The town grew to such imporinnee
that the Southern Nellie Runnier! built
a branch line here from Nonce, and an-
other railroad, lite Beaumont, Sour Lake
and Western, was built here from Reau-
mont. The traffic in oil atm general
supplies was heavy, and all the people of
the town felt that it was secure in the
commercial position which it had at-
tained as if by magic.
Then cane the salt water. Gar Lake
was exulting over her prosperity when
lite news carne that salt wirier had ap-
peared in one of the wells which had
been giving many Thousands of barrels
of oil regularly each day. The well was
ruined.
From well to well the salt water
spread, and many of the best producers
went out of cornncission. One 611 con-
cern after another had to quit business.
\Nell after well was abandoned. Der-
ricks were removed.
Land and. town property values col-
lapsed. The tented city disappeared al-
most in n night. Business buildings
were vacated and ttie town dwindled in
population.
Land that. was once dotted with oil
derricks is now devoted again to grow-
ing cotton and other produce.
The history of the Butson and Humble
ell fields is n repetition of that of Spindle
Top and Sour Lake. The Sour I.n ce field
is still producing oil, but lire qua lily is
small compared with the output in the
boom days.

Latest London contrivance for Securing
Pure Milk Supply.
For years London's milk supply has
been blanked by medical men and health
officers for a great deal of the infant
mentality.
Now the dairy companies are to deliv-
er milk at the doors of houses in paper
pails or pitchers, which are said to a,,,

The paper pails are being made al a
new factory at the rate of 50.000 daily,
but they will require to be turned out
at the rate of some millions daily if
the demand is to he tnel.
These milk pails, made (min woad
pulp, can, of course, he used only

GIVE ME STRENGTH
This is the cry in these strenuous days, when business makes such de-
mands upon us.
Exeriese and fresh air are neretssay 1f we would bo strong, but the ten-
dency of life to -day is towards conveniences and modes of living that deprive
us of the very means of keeping our strength and health unimPelred.
We sit more, we sleep less, we eat richer and more artificial foods than
formerly.
The natural remedy --the practical means of withstanding these inroads
upon our safety—
Take the fresh air and sunshine when possible, that Is—when going to and
from work—
