A CREED. Let me be a little kinder, Let me be a little blinder To the faults of those about me, Let me praise a little more; Let me be when I am weary. Just a little bit more cheery. Let me serve a little better Those that I am striving for. Let me be a little braver When temptation bids we waver, Let me strive a little harder To be all that 1 should be Let me be a little meeker With the brother that is weaker, Let me think more of my neighbor And a little less of me. Let me be a little sweeter. Make my life a bit completer, By doing what I should do Every minute of the day; Let me toil without complaining, Not a humble task disdaining, Let me face the summons calmly When death beckons me away.

Constipation Is a Menace in Summer Regularity of Bowels Very ImportX nt to Health at This T Time.

At no time should people more close

ly watch the condition of their bowels than during hot weather. Summer conditions contribute in various ways to cause constipation, but whatever the cause, the trouble should be quickly corrected; constipation, if neglected, leads directly to serious, and often fatal disease. Some people find that certain fruits have laxative effect, but this cannot be depended upon; a mild laxative tonic that will act gently and positively, without griping or shock to the system, is far preferable. The compound of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is highly recommended as being easy and natural In action, pleasant to the taste, and certain in its effect. A dose of Syrup Pepsin at night will restore normal action in the morning, tarrying off the heaviness and bloat. Salts, purgative waters and cathartics should be avoided, as they upset. the entire system and afford at best but temporary relief. By cleansing the bowels and removing the foreign matter that irritates and Inflames the tissues, a spoonful of Syrup Pepsin will quickly check the summer diarrhoea that is so weakening. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists for fifty cents a bottle, the larger family p'2e costing one dollar. A free trial 1 i tie can be obtained, postpaid, by vritlng to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 406 Washington St., MontlceDo, Illinois.

TO VISIT HERE. Miss Grace McKee of Connersville,

Indiana, will be the guest of friends In this city over Sunday.

A Highland, N. Y., woman writes: Since 1901 I suffered from eczema and my skin was very tender, red and scaly, and I could find no relief until I used Saxo Salve. The first application worked like magic, in less than a week the scales were gone and now the skin Is healed and smooth, thanks to Saxo Salve. In all forms of eczema, and all other crusted or scaly humors and eruptions, Saxo Salve' has given astonishingly good results. The great improve

ment that it makes in the first few

days shows plainly that you can place j

full trust in it3 curative power. We have so much confidence in it

that we give back your money if you

are not satisfied with Saxo Salve. Leo H. Fine, Druggist, Richmond, Ind.

gay old Fashions. Dandies of Past Csnturies Would Maks Solomon Look Sad.

Compared with the gay apparel worn by the dandies of the past ages toe youths of our time in the gayest of gay raiment make, but a poor show. The bishop of Ely in the fourteenth century had a change of raiment for every day in the year. The Earl of Northumberland boasted no less than sixty cloth of gold snits at this time. In the time of Chaucer the men wore clothes as many colored as Joseph's coat, so that while one leg would be a blaze of crimson, the other would be tricked out in green, blue or yellow without any regard for harmony or contrast Even as late as the middle of the eighteenth century, a dandy would dress himself in a vivid green coat, a waistcoat of scarlet, yellow breeches and blue stockings. And the gentleman of a few years later wore, among other vagaries, a coat of light green, with sleeves too small for the arms and buttons too big for the sleeves; a pair of fine Manchester breeches; clocked silk stockings; a club of hair behind larger than the head which carried it; a hat not larger than a sixpence.

It was a common thing In the early part of the eighteenth century for a man of fashion to spend several hours daily in the bands of his valet Amon the many operations which took up this time was "the starching of the beard and the proper perfuming of the garments, the painting of the face and anointing with oils, tinctures, essences and pomatums. London Standard.

(National News Association) CHICAGO, Aug. 2. A change of

plans for the Progressive National convention has been announced by the committee on arrangements. The Monday evening session at which Col. Theodore Roosevelt was to have addressed the gathering has been abandoned. Instead the Colonel will deliver his speech at Tuesday's session. According to the new arrangements the convention will be called to order at

noon next Monday. Ralph Otis, chairman of the arrangements committee and of the Illinois Progressive committee will call the convention to order. Prayer will be offered and then the gavel will be presented to Joseph M. Dixon, chairman of the provisional national committee. Dixon In turn will present Albert J. Beveridge as temporary chairman and the former senator will deliver his keynote speech. Reading of the temporary roll and the appointment of committees will complete Monday's work. Tuesday the permanent organization of the convention will be completed and then Roosevelt will be formally invited to come before the convention. He will be brought to the Coliseum by a specially appointed commits tee and will deliver the address he has prepared as a statement of his beliefs and the objects of the new party. If the organization is completed rapidly and the address of the former president is over early enough the resolutions committee will probably make its report and the platform be adopted Tuesday night, leaving Wednesday clear for the nominations of president and vice president If the speech is not completed until late in the afternoon the platform will go ov

er until Wednesday and It will be adopted and the nominations made byfore adjournment on that day.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH. Dseeendsnts of the Germane Who Cam

The first Germane came to this conn try la 1682 and settled at Germantown It Is estimated that the Germans am! their descendants in Pennsylvania numbered 100.000 at the time of on; revolution. The descendants of thes are called the Pennsylvania Germans or Dutch. The word Dutch is a cor ruption of Deutscb, meaning German The early Germans were followers of Menao Simons, known as Mennon ltes. They were persecuted in thfii own country on account of their re Hglous belief and when Penn offered religious liberty It was gladly accept ed by them. The persecuted German came largely from the Rhenish pnlati nate. Wurtemberg. from the lower Rhine. Alsace. Saxony and Switzer land. The southeastern counties of Penn sylvania. such as Lancaster. York Berks and Lebanon, were chosen for settlement These settlers spose a variety of dialects, and. owing to seg relation in religious communities, they clung to their mother tongue. English words have since crept in and us a re suit we have the somewhat pictur esque language known as the "Penn tylvanla Dutch." Their religious be lief and their common Interest have preserved this class with singular purity. Philadelphia Ledger.

Children love the whole-wheat taste and the maple flavor of Mapl-Flake just as much as you do. Mapl-Flake is mighty good for children. It helps to give them rosy cheeks and sturdy bodies, and it relieves you of the need of dosing them with pills or oil. Mapl-Flake the food that keeps you well Is the whole wheat flakes and baked until each flake is really a miniature piece of toast.

Their Work In Developing the Oceaa Carrying Trade. There are land tramps and sea tramps, but whereas the former lives by the labor of others, the worldV business would be in great straits were the latter to be swept from fie face of the ocean. While there have practically always been tramp ships since men have sailed the sea. it remained for the Yankee skippers to develop this phase of ocean carrying to its highest degree. Tramping on th ocean is only another name 'for trading, and many are the stories extant of Yankee skippers swapping beads, mirrors, calico, knives and other trifles for Ivory in Africa, and for commodities equally as valuable In other lands. The tramp steamship came Into ex-

Jean istence during the war between the

states, and it is to this type of vessel that England primarily owes her supremacy on the sea, she having encouraged the building of tramps more than any other nation. In times of peace they add to her prosperity, ana where they enjoy a subsidy, as they do In some Instances, they are used ai transports and other auxiliaries ia times of war. Next to England comes Norway as a nation which encourages sea tramps.

and as her maritime laws are more

elastic than those of Great Britain, many British tramps are sold to Norwegian owners, who make them pay after they have outlived their usefulness under the British flag. Marine Journal.
