Which Is a fine figure. you may have a mortgage, say, on your home or your household goods. These "plasters" are common. They represent needed loans and If well advised are helps to ownership. You bend your energies toward payment of principal and interest. But The mortgage that most distresses mortals Is the mortgage voluntarily assumed and without sufficient consideration of bad habits, the mortgage on character. That mortgage is A lien on body and soul! You may or may not be able to pay the mortgage on your property before you die. Nevertheless you will have been successful If you have kept your self free from the lien on yourself. The mortgage on self, together with the mortgage on property, makes n double mortgage double debt and double interest. There's the tobacco mortgage. The habit of chewing or smoking Indulged to excess and almost any use In excess is, as every well informed person knows, a draft on vitality, a Hhatterer of nerves, a deplcter of vital forces. And the liquor mortgage. The drinking habit is a mortgage that demands tremendous interest rates. It ruins the stomach linings, benumbs the brain cells, hardens the nerve fibers, paralyzes the power of mind and body. Other mortgages? Plenty of them. The mortgage of excess in eating, of sleep loss, of excesses, of lust, of dishonesty, of all unrighteousness. Tay them off! Else, principal and Interest, they will absorb you. soul and body. The sooner you pay the better, because the Interest on these mortgages is not merely compounded, as In a real estate loan, semiannually. It is compounded dally. By and by it will be impossible for you to pay the accumulations. Tsy the mortgages now. Stop the interest. A Des Moines man had an attack of muscular rheumatism in his shoulder. ,A friend advised him to go to Hot Springs. That meant an expense of $150.00 or more. He sought for a tquicker and cheaper way to cure it i and found it in Chamberlain's Llnljment Three days after the first application of this liniment he .was well. For Bale by all dealers.

Cleveland's Example.

The general success of the early shopping campaign is due to the fact that business men in any number of cities have followed the pace set in Cleveland. For half a decade now the merchants' association of that city has conducted a successful campaign for pushing back holiday shopping into November nd early December. It has been the practice to give the plan the widest publicity, newspapers joining in the effort which has the official sanction of the business men's associations. In Boston, Washington, Pittsburg, Philadelphia and New York has this tendency been most marked. It has also been quite as much in evidence in numerous smaller cities. All this evidence points to but one conclusion that the Christmas shopping rush will eventually become a thing of the past; that the time is not far distant when Christ'man shopping will be done rationally to the distinct advantage of purchaser, business man and clerk. South Bend Tribune.

PATAGONIAN INDIANS. Custom of the Remnants of a Once Powerful Tribe. Normally the Tehuelehes, as the Pntngonlan Indians are called, are n peaceable and kindly people, yet they are Impulsive, capable of strong prejudices, very revengeful and often with good reason suspicious of strangpts. They are not to be trifled with and when under the influence of drink i are brutal and dangerous. They showlove for their children nnd wives and kindness to their old people. They are divided Into numerous tribes or groups, eaoh having its chief or cacique, upon whom the burdens of government rest but lightly. They believe in n good and an evil spirit, whom they propitiate, nnd have many stories, myths and superstitions connected with the sun. moon and stars, while the slaying of horses and drinking of blood form a conspicuous part of their superstitions, birth, marriage nnd death ceremonies, many of which are most repulsive. When Magellan first passed through the strait thero were perhaps no fewer than 10,000 Patagonians roaming from the Rio Negro to the strait, while today, driven back from the littoral to tho high pampas and the foothills of the Andes, altogether they would probably not total over 500. Harper's Magazine. The Smallest Pension. Great Britain's pension system Is as liberal as may be considering the vast number of persons carried on both the military and the civil lists, but in one ense the record for smallness cf payment has undoubtedly been established. Various factors enter into determining the amount to be paid sailors, and these factors so combined against ono old salt that it was found that he could draw a pension of not any more than fourpence 8 cents a year. Promptly on each quarter day there comes an official communication transmitting the amount due In the form of postage stamps, and he is granted leave of absence in order that he may convert this into money at th postoffice. Then, after the proverbial manner of sailors, he promptly proceed, to "blow" the entire amount. New York Tribune. Wordsworth's Sense of Smell. Toets have not failed to do perfumes Justice, but one major poet Wordsworth went through life without a sense of smell and was not sorry for It. Nature, he told Aubrey de Vere. seemed to him all the more a vision. But once, and once only, did' Wordsworth smell, and the prosaic occasion Illustrates the unpolished household ways of his time. He sat down with his family to the midday dinner and began to carve a log of mutton. The leg of mutton was stuffed with onions, and for once, and once only, the sense of smell was revealed to him. The onions, suddenly laid bare, conquered. London Standard. Newfoundland. In spite of ease and swiftness of communication we break down over tho pronunciation of names that lie outside our front door. There is Newfoundland, our earliest speculation in American settlers. But you can't pronounce it so as to satisfy everybody. A visitor bus protested. The name has three solid syllables. One must win. In English mouths the accent is generally put on the second syllable, for tho dogs found their day. That is wrong, quite wrong. But do you know whether you should say "Newfnln" or "Nfnland?"

ROAD TO WEALTH.

Maxims to Which Rothschild Ascribed His Early Success. Rothschild commonly ascribed his early success in a great degree to the following rules: "I combined three profits. I made the manufacturer my customer, and the one I bought of my customer that is, I supplied the manufacturer with raw materials and dyes, on each of whioh j made a proflti and took bis manufactured goods, which I sold ut a profit, and thus combined three profits. "Make a bargain at once. Be an off hand man. "Never have anything to do with an unlucky man or place. I have seen many clever men who had not shoes to their feet. I never act with them. Their advice sounds very well, but fate is against them. They cannot get on themselves. How can they do me good ? "Be cautious and bold. It requires a great deal of boldness and a great deal of caution to make a great fortune, and when you have got it it requires ten times as much wit to keep it." The last idea was one which Rothschild frequently expressed, and there is no doubt he was thoroughly Impressed with its truth. Life. Giant and Dwarf Honeybees. In some of the East Indian islands and on the mainland of Hindustan are to be found the smallest species of honeybees in the world. These dwarf honey collectors are known to entomologists as Apis florea. Their honeycombs are no larger than a child's band, and the cells are about the size of a small pin head. This honey is excellent, as is the wax. The little creatures build the comb on the branch of a low tree, nnd as they have not to provide for winter they work all the year through, raising broods like themselves. In the same land there is a species of giant bees, Apis dorsata, as large as a field cricket. These monsters of the bee world build honeycombs that are from six to seven feet in length, four or more in width and which weigh from 300 to 400 pounds each. Harper's. Maeterlinck's First Play. Maurice Maeterlinck began his literary career with three apparent failures. His first literary endeavor was to found a review. La Pleiade. which soon ceased to appear. His second was the publication of a volume of poems, "Serres Chaudes," which fell stillborn from the press. Then came his play "La Princesse Malene." It was printed by hand by the author's own hands in fact and the edition consisted of exactly twenty-five copies, which were given away. For a year it attracted no attention. Then, however, one of the twenty-five copies fell into the hands of M. Octave Mirbeau. He wrote a resounding article about it in the Figaro, and the author, like Byron, woke up and found himself famous. Westminster Gazette. Origin of the Curfew. In the year (1001) after King Henry's death, in a synod, by the duke's authority and attended by bishops, abbots and barons, it was ordered that a bell should be rung every evening, at the hearing of which prayer should be offered and all the people should get within their houses and shut their doors. This odd mixture of piety and police seems to be the origin of the famous and misrepresented curfew. Whatever was its object, it was at least not ordained as any special hardship on William's English subjects. E. A. Freeman. "History of the Norman Conquer." JN HISTORY" Holly. cents.

WALTER MILLARD TO TALK ON SOCIALISM

On Thursday evening, Dec. 21, at the K. of P. temple, Walter Millard, of Cincinnati, will deliver an address on Socialism, his theme being "How Things Happen to Happen." The meeting is under the auspices of the local Socialist organization. Mr. Millard is an organizer and lecturer of the Socialist party and enjoys the reputation of being a forcible speaker on this question. A ticket entitles a purchaser both to admission and six months' subscription to the Wayne County Common People. On every Sunday afternoon at 2-30 public educational meetings are heid at headquarters, which are, we!! intended and afford considerable interest. SPANISH VENGEANCE. Fate of a Faithless Solon In the Reign of Emperor Charles. It was in the early days of the reign of the Kmperor Charles, when the Spanish people, ever jealous of their rights, became infuriated at a submissive cortes for voting imperial grants without obtaining redress for popular grievances. Tordeslllas, the representative of Segovia, being a bold and haughty man, returned to his native city to defend his conduct and, according to custom, summoned his fellow townsmen to the church that ke might give an account of his actions in the cortes. But the multitude, infuriated at his insolence in attempting to justify conduct they deemed inexcusable, burst open the doors of the church and, seizing Tordeslllas. dragged him through the streets with curses and insults toward the place of public execution. The dean and canons came forth with the holy sacrament to awe the mob; the monks in the monasteries, by which the luckless deputy was dragged, prayed on their knees that his life might be spared or. at least, that be be allowed time for absolution; but, without regard for humanity or religion, they banged their victim up head downward on the common gibbet. H. C. Chatfield Taylor, "The Band of the Castanets." Newbro's Herpicide Saves Worry, Saves Money, the Hair. Saves If you want to free your head of dandruff and stop falling hair, you must sooner or later resort to Newbro's Herpicide. By using Herpicide first you save yourself worry, which is desirable, you save money, which is a consideration, and you save your hair, which is the most important of all. Why not profit by the experience of Mrs. S. A. Lee, of 110 South 4th St.. Richmond, Va.. who writes: ' Four years' residence in India ruined my hair until it was but two inches long and very thin. I tried everything in Europe and America without benefit until I was induced to use j Herpicide. My hair is now long, soft and silky and natural color, while be-1 fore it was quite gray. My friends ; never tire of admiring my hair." j Mrs. Lee's story is a typical history ; of hair troubles. After everything else fails, Newbro's Herpicide brings relief. It would be just as effective if used first. Newbro's Herpicide kills the dan druff germ and prevents falling hair, j It stops itching of the scalp almost instantly. No matter what the claims of others, Herpicide is the only genuine original dandruff germ destroyer. One dollar size bottles guaranteed. Sold by all druggists. Applications at good barber shops.

How Roots Penetrate Hard Ground. The extreme tips of a delicate root

are protected by a sheath set with minute scales, which as it is worn away by friction against the soil is a constantly replaced, so that it acts as a wedge and the root thread is carried down uninjured. Another aid to penetration lies in the provision where by the root as it pushes downward in search of nourishment exercises a slightly spiral, screwlike motion which worms its tip into the ground. Another important agent is the acid ceil sap, which exudes on to and dissolves to some extent the rook or hard soil. This may be tested by placing a small piece of polished marble in a pot iu which a plant is set and covering it ' with earth. After some weeks the I marble will be found to have been cor- j roded by the continuous action of this j acid. ! Why the Spider Was There. When Mark Twain in his early days was editor of a Missouri paper a superstitious subscriber wrote to him saying that he had found a spider iu his paper ami asking him whether that was a sign of good luck or bad. The humorist wrote him this answer and printed it: "Old subscriber Finding a spider iu your paper was neither good luck nr bad luck for you. Tho spider was merely looking over our paper to see which merchant is not advertising, so that he can go to that store, spin his web across the door and lead a life of undisturbed peace ever afterward."
