"Charlie, dear," said young Mrs. Torkins, "I want you to stop at the market and get some egg plants." "But I don't like it." "No. But you like eggs. I want to feed it to the hens." Impractical Advice. ."Never make a fuss about what you can't help," said the homely philosopher. "Nonsense!" replied the fan. "That idea would take half the excitement out of a base ball game." The Servant Problem. We utilize the cheaper cut ' According to the book; For us 'twas quite sufficient, but It didn't suit the cook. Sufficient Responsibility. "So you don't want a vote!" said the suffrasette. "Gracious, no!" replied Mrs. Mo Gudley. "It's bad enough to have your husband blaming you for everything that goes wrong about the house without being held responsible for politics." .

Studies in Gratitude. "All I got for my trouble was a . 'thank you,'" said the man who begrudges friendly effort. "You're lucky," replied the billionj aire philanthropist. "I'm expected to say 'thank you' to people who find me : a suitable method of giving my money away."

Significant Utterance. If you some simple fact should state That was self-evident No one would pause to contemplalte The energy you'd spent In framing up a pungent phrase Eternal truth to show. Men would remark, and go their ways: "We knew that long ago." But if some man whose name is heard Throughout this land immense Iets fall some ordinary word Of plain and homely sense, With admiration uncontrolled The public far and near Salutes him and exclaims: "Behold! An epigram is here!" And so once more a mighty truth Is vividly impressed. 'Tis not enough to think, forsooth, And have your thought expressed. The maxim once to trade confined To wisdom now applies; Whate'er you do bear this in mnid: It pays to advertise. Items Gathered in From Far and Near Insuring Valuable Employes. From the Boston Globe. Insuring valuable men in corporations and manufacturing concerns is the latest form of insurance. In the textile industry for example, this plan is being tried in the case of officials and employes whose technical knowledge is of a high order. In a New York state mill the life of a man recently engaged under contract for a term of years to take charge of manufacturing departments has been insured by the proprietors for $50,000, running the length of time the contract is In force. Several insurance companies are engaged in this line of business, and it is probable that before long the custom will be as common to Insure the lives of competent men as It is to insure property against loss by fire. It is said the system encourages contract positions for men of value and that the idea is as feasible as that In insuring the honesty of officials by surety companies. Fresh-Air Schools. From the St. Paul Dispatch. Fresh-air schools, started and still conducted to care for tuberculosis children, promise to have an important influence upon the entire public school system. They are still new in 'America, having been in use in Providence two years, in Boston something i more than a year and for shorter per-

FISH DIVIDENDS. Men are' beginning to look over their rubber boots and their rods and reels. For the sucker is lying close to the surface in' the sun and the bass is getting up his nerve for the battles that are' to come later. Over at Feeder's Dam the goggle eyes have been scented by the true intuition of the fisherman who knows the fish afar off. And yet it is only a matter of months since the Doddridge Chapel men were fined a few hundred for dynamiting.'

Those highly practical persons who see no reason why they should not go out and murder all the fish In the streams belong to the same type as those who kill dogs; beat horses tired to death; and that is a type which in another development of land grabbing and pillage ot the public domain, has almost imperiled a nation. Yet it is not on that account that the fish and game of this county will be preserved. It is because an association has been formed hereabouts of men who love the country and its fruits who are going to protect the fish because they are men who have in them the true sporting blood which harms not when it has its pleasnre.

The Wayne County Fish and Game Protective Society is doing a valuable service to the community in starting a broodery for fish raising. The streams barren thanks to the dynamiter will have again the best of their silent and graceful citizens. Again will the bass, the game fighter, play on the line in some pool with all the fire and lust of life.

Nor will the men of sour countenance think it important that this should be so. It does not add a jot to the world's business nor a penny to the bank account. So they say. But if the world's business is to acquire happiness to get the best out of the air and stream and the sunshine If it is our business to live and do it joyfully in the .full hearted manner of happy children and not old curmudgeons Then there will be those who will see a dividend a thousand times over proceed from the paltry sum invested in restocking the fish.

TUBERCULOSIS SUNDA Y. It is recorded that various communities in the ancient time have had days of famine and sudden death by plague. Every day in America we are holding a festival of the White Death, in which the skeleton dances with all the gusto of Holbein's woodcuts.

April 24th is a day set apart for the contemplation of Tuberculosis, and with the fresh airs of the young year and the sunshine, there should be preached In big city and small town and In the tenement and the farmhouse the story of the closed window. With It should be the words of hope "the NEEDED LESSON THAT TUBERCULOSIS IS A CURABLE DISEASE.

A LITTLE MAGAZINE. Right now when you walk down Main Street, the most pessimistic old knocker can only shake his head. He has nothing to say his mouth is stopped. There is activity simply sprouting. Even the optimists have not enough time to say more than a few cheering words they are too busy. This week young "Panic Proof" a magazine of Push will break the crust and start in without apology. A year ago, or so, a few mossy croakers, frigid from standing in their, own light, might have found some fault with the little magazine. But is it a part of the history of progress and business in Richmond. That will be recognized. , Those who think it might be better will help by getting in the game and putting a few more bubbles of optimism in it.

In the meantime, those who are good enough citizens to be counted and not too lazy to stand up during the process will be glad of a chance to let other people know that there are some radiations of life in Richmond.

That is, we take it, the object of that will do Richmond a lot of good. iods in Chicago, Pittsburg, Rochester and Hartford. They have been fully tried out in Germany, where they have been varied into open-air summer schools and forest schools. In no place where they have been tried have they been abandoned. In most places they are being extended. Thus far the schools have included only the physically weak and the mentally backward. With plenty of fresh air and sanitary surroundings, these weak and defective children have been able to accomplish more than normal children in the ordinary schools. In some cases progress has been exceptionally rapid. While the minds develop as they never developed before, the bodies grow strong and children are given a chance in life. April Fool's Day Nuisance. From the Rochester Democrat. The village cut-up. is one of the most familiar "rube" types of the comic paper, and an important 'part of its stock in trade. It is a little surprising, therefore, to learn that this uncouth jester has near relatives in the great city, even in New York, where humor is supposed to reach its highest stage of refinement. The April fool joker has become such a nuisance there that the authorities of the Aquarium have already made arrangements for dealing with him when the first day of April arrives. In past years many calls have been received on that day from men who have been told that a message has been received requesting them to call 3732, Rector, and ask for Mr. Fish. The joke has been overworked to such an extent that the telephone at the Aquarium will be disconnected all day. The practical joker will have to find a new outlet for his humor. Big Stick Beats. From the San Francisco Chronicle. The President's bills are still lagging. So far, the big smile hasn't proved up as well in Congress as the big stick. He Would Do It. From the Minneapolis Journal. If the Sudan desires a Sirdar that can make the camels hump themselves to keep up with the procession, now is its time to hold an election. The Country Is Calm. From the New York Sun. It is symptomatic of the decline of jingoism in this country that the cry of "On to Bogota" is not raised. Tree Tops Budding. From the Baltimore American. By standing on tip-toes it is now possible ' to see spring advancing beyond the hills.

a little magazine DOMESTIC ECONOMY. Feeding a Family of Five on A a Week. "My husband," said the woman with the optimistic face, "gives me f 4 a week for keeping up the table for our family, and it is simply wonderful how we do it." "I should think so," observes the woman with the grim smile. "How big a family have you?" "My husband, myself, three boys and one girl." "And you keep up your table with $4 a week? What do you have?" "For breakfast we have a cereal, fruit, coffee and sometimes bacon and eggs; for luncheon cold meats or croquettes or something made of the leftovers from dinner the night before and a simple dessert; for dinner we have a soup, chicken or roast meat, two vegetables, a salad, coffee and a dessert." "My goodness! What prices do you pay for groceries and meats?" "Mercy me! I never ask. I just telephone to the grocer and meat man and tell them what I want, and my husband gets the bills the first of the month." "But I thought you said he allowed you only $4 a week?" "So he does, and by charging nearly everything, do you know, I actually save $S or $10 a month from that allowance!" Judge's Library. Playful Monkeys. Apes and gorillas are usually vicious and resentful and less addicted to playful tricks than the common monkey. Indeed, the monkey, as we all know, is a trickster both in his wild and domestic state. In their native for ests monkeys spend hours in swinging from the branches of trees, suspended by their tails, and chattering and grimacing with evident signs of delight. Humboldt mentions seeing over a hundred so employed In a South American forest. Nothing Miraculous. "You had rheumatism in your right leg for years and were cured of it In an Instant? How?" "By being accidentally mixed up in a train wreck. My right leg 1 cork leg now." Chicago Tribune Making Ministers. "One of the results of the Christian Endeavor meetings at Sagamore Beach, Mass., 1909," writes William M. Leach, president of the Progressive Christian Endeavor union. Massachusetts, "is that I am going to study for the ministry." Excellent! In these days, when the bitter cry of the church is the dearth of men entering the ministry, it is pleasing to note that Christian Endeavor Is one of the Influences that tend to direct the thought of men to that field of usefura

"Panic Proof,'!

MANY METHODISTS Hi DIXIELAND NOW

Coming Quadrennial Conference Will Report a Very Large Increase. CHURCH UNION PROBABLE QUESTION OF UNITING THE SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN BRANCHES OF METHODISM NEW HYMNAL NOW ISSUED. Montgomery City, Mo., March 2S. Bishop B. R. Hendricks, of Kansas City, Mo., who is writing the address of the College of Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, which is to be read at the coming sixteenth quadrennial General Conference of this Church in Asheville, N. C, next May, states that his figures show that the Church has increased Its membership since the last meeting of this body, This will be bright and encouraging news to all the 1. 700.01 it) adherants of this Church throughout the United States. It has been stated by some that the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was not holding its own, but these figures given by Bishop Hendricks shows this is a mistake. It is estimated by some that the membership before these 200.0O0 were added was between 1,700,000 and 1,800,000. Are 19,000 Churches. The next report shows there were about 19,900 churches and 5,000 local preachers, and of the twelve bishops living at the last meeting of this Quad rennial Conference four have died; namely, Bishops, Tagart. Smith, Callaway and Ward. It is also stated that this conference probably will not only elect four bishops to take the places of these deceased members, but may increase the bishops to fifteen or eighteen. Probably the most interesting and overshadowing issues that will come before this Conference, will be the question of uniting the south and north branches of Methodism, the proposal to abolish the presiding elder's office, the extension of the pastoral limit and' the question of worldly amusements. Some of the Missouri preachers are in favor of the extension of the successive years a pastor may serve one church from one to six years. Others are in favor of the abolition of the time limit altogether. It is very probable that the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the Methodist Episcopal Church will decide at this Conference to adopt a policy, especially in foreign missionary fields, of absolute harmony and co-operation. This is being done in China, and there is now only one great Methodist Church in this great empire, operated through the Methodist Federation. The New Hymnal. The new hymnal, issued by a joint commission of twenty-two ministers and laymen appointed in equal numbers from the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is having a great deal to do with bringing about union. The object of this new song book is to provide a worthy manual of songs for use in both churches and for private worship of the followers of Methodism. The hymns of the Wesleys are given prominence. It contains the most choice work of the writers of the eigh teenth century Doddridge, Newman, Montgomery and a very considerable number of the new hymns selected after wide examination of the body of the religious verses produced during the last seventy-five years. Some of the hymns have alternate tunes, with a view to please both branches of the Church and to obtain a better musical expression for the words than is given by the old familiar tunes. This book is now being largely adopted by both churches throughout the United States. History of Anatomy. The way in which we are so "fearfully and wonderfully made" was largely a mystery to the ancients. It may be said that anatomical science was practically unknown prior to Aristotle. 3S4 B. C. Before that date nearly all that was known of anatomy was derived from the dissection of .the lower animals. Aristotle did something in the way of science, but It was not until the time of the famous Alexandrian school, a century before and a century after the birth of Christ, that the anatomy of man began to be fairly understood. The Ftolemles were great patrons of the science and were the first who enabled physicians freely to dissect the human body, thus frustrating the Ignorant superstition which had been so long compromising the welfare of humanity. Exchange. The Holland Primrose. There is a plant In Holland known as the evening primrose, which grows to a height of five or six feet and bears a profusion of large yellow flowers so brilliant that they attract immediate attention, even at a great distance, but the chief peculiarity about the plant Is the fact that the flowers, which open just before sunset burst into bloom so suddenly that they give one the Impression of some magical agency. A man who has seen this sudden blooming says It Is Just as If some one had touched the land with a wand and thus covered it all at once with a golden sheet. A Terrible Threat.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE ! Copy.ht. 1908, by Edwin A. Nye

EAST TREASURES. In the windows of a church hangs a beautiful painting of the Madonna and the Child. The picture cost $1,000 and was donated by a member of the church. The donor, you conclude, was some wealthy member of the congregation. No. The picture was presented by one of the humblest members. Sirs. Anna Kuehn, a widow and a washerwoman. The story that goes with the picture is greater than the picture and more beautiful. The gift was a memorial of the poor woman's dead boy. her only child, who died at the age of eight years, several years ago. By patient toll at the wasntub. by the most pinching economy. Mrs. Kuehn saved the thousand dollars. When the reporters visited her humble home this woman, who bad given much more than the "widow's mite," who had given grinding years of toll and anxious hours of close savings, asked that her name should not be used. -It was for my little boy who died." she said. "It makes no difference to other people." A waste of good money," says the utilitarian. Let's see. Do you remember the immortal stoy of the woman who poured her costly ointments at the feet of the Christ 2.000 years ago? And do you remember what the disciples said? They said it was a waste of money the foolish woman should have sold the precious spices and given the money to the poor. The Master saw it differently. He knew better than bis poor fishermen followers the tremendous value of a genuine sentiment. He rightly estimated the priceless rarity of a real heart tribute. And so exalted a place did he find for the fine act of that woman that he declared her story should be told to the ends of the earth. And It has been so told. Why does the world still bug to its heart that Bethany story? Why Is the world touched by the tale of the poor woman who hid in her heart a great picture in honor of her baby boy? Why? Because, my friend, there are things of mora value in this world than money or success or fame or pleasure. Kill in the heart of a woman her love for her child and nothing remains. The ilfht of the whole world dies When love is done. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine Tablets. Druggists refund money if it fails to cure. E. W.

The Same Story From Four Directions Many People Getting on the Right Track. From the Fort Wayne Journal Ga zette: "Four people came to Fort Wayne, yesterday, from different di rections, met at the same point, and told practically the same story regarding the great medicine. Root Juice. The gentleman from Van Wert, Ohio said: 'Root Juice has been do ing lots of good in Van Wert, the last six months, and the people of my town, think there never was a medi cine like it. Frank Boroff, the druggist, who has the agency, said it Is a pleasure to sell Root Juice, as we never have to listen to complaints, on the contrary, many who buy one bot tle, soon return for more, and per suade their friends to try it. It is certainly a great tonic, and has done wonders for many who have suffered years with chronic stomach and kid ney troubles. The man from Colum bia City said: 'It don't make much difference where you go, you are sure to hear some one talking about Root Juice. Hundreds of people of my town have tried the remedy and I havn't heard a single complaint. It certainly must be a great medicine, or so many people wouldn't be praising It so hishly. An old lady from Bluffton said: "If you want to hear talk about Root Juice, go to Bluffton. I tell you our people are crazy about It I heard Mr. Gutellus, our local druggist say he never saw anything like it in his whole life. He said he had sold nearly 2.000 bottles of Root Juice within the past four months, and the people still coming for It, in crowds, and none were complaining, but nearly every one praised it, and told of some remarkable good it was doing. The gentleman from Kendallville said: "Don't tell me anything about Root Juice. If jrou want to hear about the wonderful cures this medicine is making, go to my town, and call on O. P. Raber. He has sold the remedy to hundreds of people, and has heard them praising it, for several months." Such talk is very common these days, at this point, as many local people who have tried the remedy, are praising It, to their friends and neighbors, and seem to have unlimited confidence in its merits. Much can be learned, regarding the remedy, at A. G. Luken & Co.s Drug Store. "
