.PRESERVED THE OU) STYLE i On* Voung Brldt Brougnt At motphere of th* P*»t Into H«r N»w Hom*. A. young bnao who went to not** keeping in her husband's old hum* »«i v*ry much disappointed to And that hl* mother, with the very best Intention* in tb« world had bought a lot of modern furniture and put away I Some really antique pieces, because she thought they were too out of date to please her boy’B city wife. The wife, however, in a quiet way found out that the new furniture had been purchased with the understanding that the bill be settled within six months. She talked the matter over with her husband and bls mother and then with the proprietor of the store, and. In the end, all the “modern” fur. nlture was taken back and the same amount traded out for several beautiful rugs and the curtains for all ths rooms on the first floor of the eld house. Thru the bride went to work aa4 fixed up all the “old fashioned" furnk ture which had been stored in the attic. A dining table was found and four chairs to match. These she had scraped and sandpapered, then a fillet applied, and, lastly, a good quality varnish. This, when thoroughly dry was again rubbed down until the final finish was dull, and the effect was splendid. It suggested age, but good condition. The young wife also removed ths screens from the old fireplace and they laid down new hearth stones ot cream brick. And the most delighted Inmate of the home was the mother, ■who saw in it all a vision of bygons day*. LONG IMBEDDED IN AMBER Dragon Fly, Preserved for Centurie* I* a Most Remarkable Natural Curiosity. Files in amber are not uncommotk but a dragon fly, almost perfect, 1* unique. The piece ot amber with its large insect imperishably imprisoned was presented a few weeks ago to aa English statesman by a rich Russian merchant. The piece is remarkable for its slzs | and the purity of its transparent yel low, but more especially for this insect it contains. This particulai dragon fly flitted about over ths marshes of what geologists call ths tertiary period, tens or hundreds ol thousands of years ago, and was en gulfed by the resin that flowed from a pine tree. This resin, in the course of ages, turned to the stone that we now call amber. Several thousand species of fossil Insects have been found in amber but thia ia one of th< finest ever seen Life’* Healing*. Os all the amazing forces of natur* - •—her thunder and cataracts, oceans In ■wild storm and volcanoes In floods ol ' molten rock, and those hidden mon-ster-powers of electricity, gravitation ! ■nd chemlc affinities—the most wonderful of all is her healing power, het ■ ability to get over anything, her in .
finite resources of recovery. Haven’t you often wondered why the whole world did not die of the cholera? And those other plagues nc one seems able to stay, the typho, the smallpox, the bubonic plague, be sides the awful pests of history, the red death and the black death; why have any of them ceased at all? One reason of this is that the foui huge rooms In nature'e house are full of health supply. These rooms are sunshine, water, air and earth. For Natures other name is The Healer. She Is the original and only cure-all. And all this Is quite as true in the realm of mind and soul as it is in the realm of body.—Woman’s World Horse Up e Tree. Visitors to Ferry Bar were much •nrprised yesterday morning to see a horse up among the branches of a tree. The animal had got In its un comfortable position by falling ten feet from a bank that overtopped the tree. The tree probably saved the horse’s life. Blocks and fall were fastened to a i tree stump on top of the hill and , leather belts were wrapped about the horse. When the work of hitching ( the belts was completed it was found that the animal could not be rescued until several of the limbs of the tree were cut off. This took considerable time, during which the horse rested ' and watched the work of the score or more of men who were trying to re lease him. With the removal of the last limb the horse was slowly drawn to the top of the bank from which ho had fallen. A close examination revealed that outside of a few scratches he was unhurt.—Baltimore American. Spell Against Evil Eye. Southern India Is a land of omens and superstitions. These are remnants of the religion of the lost Dra, vidian races, engrafted upon the Hinduism of their conquerors. Edgar Thurston, in a book on the subject lust published in England, gives an exhaustive account of the strange bo llefs of these various races, where human sacrifice, though forbidden by law, persists. The author cites among other Sharma against the evil eye Impressions of the hand in red paint, which may be seen on the walls of moeques and other Mohammedan buildings and at Kadur on the houses of Brahmins, a photograph of one of which, tokva 41 Mr, Thurston, Is reproduced.

MASONRY WITHOUT MORTAR A mason would not attempt to erect a structure without stones, bricks or mortar—would he? And he makes a careful selection of tae material that is needed. He uses outside bricks for outsice wor- and in de bricks for ins de work. How many young mem and women are trying to-day right here in Dicatur tn erect the edifice of succe •.« without using a Bank Account? And do you realize that the selection if a Bank for YOU and YOUR need i to build YOUR cd’flee of success is just as important as the selection of bricks and mortar by a mnsan when he puts up a building?

JL V/ MJ XX. But although thousands of people go annually to Chautauqua, N. Y.. from all parts of the United Stnto«, the great mass of American people would never get to a Chautauipia if they bad to travel far from home The r. ■- ognltion of this fact brought about the decision to take Chautauquns to the people everywhere. The movement i few years ago began to spread rapidly. Today there are operated from the Redpath beadquarters in lowa. I sas City nnd Chicago nearly GOO Chautauquns. Only the best talent is engaged, as high as $15,000 having been p i ] by the Redpath for a single attraction for the Chautauqua season. Every year the number of Cbnutnuquis grov.a aud there are more requests annually from towns wishing to be Chautauqua centers th in can possibly be granted.
