ttt A GONDOLA. The moth's kiss, first! Kiss me as If you made believe You were not sure, this eve, How my face, your flower, had pursed Its petals up; so, here and there You brush it, till I grow aware Who wants me, and wide ope I hurst. The bee's kiss, now! Kiss me as If you enter'd gay My heart at some noonday, A bud that dares not disallow The claim, so all is render'd up, And passively its shatered cup Over your head to sleep I bow. .

Try Olive Tablets the Substitute for Calomel. Anyone who takes Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the moment he suspects his liver or bowels, will never have headache. There is no necessity when you take Olive Tablets, of following them up with nasty, sickening, griping salts or castor oil, as you should after taking calomel. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel or any other metallic drugs; they are a purely vegetable compound mixed with olive oil, sugar-coated, easy to take, and never grippe or cause weakness. Thousands or people take one every night at bedtime just to prevent disorder of the liver, constipation, bad breath, pimples, headache, etc. Dr. Edwards, calomel's old enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets after seventen years of practice among patients afflicted with liver and bowel troubles. Try them for a week. Take one on retiring nightly. "Every Httle 01lTe Tablet has a movement all its own." 10c and 25c per box. The Olive Tablet Company, Columbus. Ohio.

Herbert Kaufman has written a beautiful little story for the Ladies' World which is worth copying. It begins: Once upon a time how the years do fly when you were a mere mite of a girlie, and believed in fairy spells and pots of gold under April rainbows when every attic " held a goblin and four-leaf clovers were shrines of fortune, and lady bugs were harbingers of luck you dreamed a wonderful dream of the day-to-be when Prince Goldenlocks would come riding by. But why waste time on such toniyrot. You are a woman. You've lost the road to the Castles of Spain (no grown up ever did find the path) and all the

whimsies and phantasies of long ago have blown away into the Never-Nev-er-Land. The prince rode North and met Gwendolyn Snuggs, the banker's snubnosed daughter and. If you keep on reading, the soup will be boiling all over the stove, and your boy will be home from school before lunch-table Is set. "Why, bless us, this brings us back again to the dream, and now you must finish, because it was he that your imagination fondled this son that would be brought to you straight and strong-thewed, proud of soul a manchild, with splendid gifts of mind and person. But since you are not a banker's snubnosed daughter and your son was born with a bawl in his mouth instead of a Bilver spoon which latter must be an extremely uncomfortable experience somehow you've lost the habit of gilding tomorrows with futile longings. You've become a very matter-of-fact, person, in whose calculations washtubs and cake-tins and dust -cloths play such ar. important part that you haven't time to go enooping through the garrets of memory. You sniff with bitter incredulity when you hear of wishing-rings, and such like bofh, and even if you won't acknowledge it you've lost a mighty lot of faith, simply because things didn't happen the way you had planned. "And you won't look up and see how much more wonderful the world has become since the Grimms and Hans Christian Anderson went out of style and Edison and Tesla and Marconi have come into fashion. If truth be told the first real fairy spells are just beginning to glorify the world. There never was an era of magte before. But now all things can be your dreams can still come true the maddest, farthest, fairest dreams ever flung to the stars. Any son of woman can achieve the ultimate in this century of far-hurled dares. Manger or mansion cradle of gold, or trundle of husk, predestine nothing. We hav begun to look the truth straight in the eye and to measure humans by the standard of fitness, not by the moss-grown, moth-eaten tradition of creed and breed. The meanest lie that ever blighted the universe the lie of caste, of superiority by birth is gasping under the throttling heel of Progress. East and West the thrones are toppling. The kingdom of brain has begun, the sovereignty of ignorance is ending. The Golden Age has dawned. This is the mighty moment. This is the most brilliant hour among all the illustrious sands of time. The Genii have returned, but they no longet' serve the lamp of Alladin instead they are slaves of the lamp' of learning. The Titans reincarnated, flail with arms of steel, swing the triphammer, spin the turbine in the waterfall, shovel mountains off the map, and bore pathways through a hundred miles of granite. Sons of laborers, farmers and clerks grandsons of peasants, serfs and foundlings, are sawing continents in half, building tongues to talk across the seas, changing water into light, making corn out of desert sand. Your old dream was not big enough. If the seed of deed is in your son, if he is dogged and patient and self respecting and courageous wholesome of mind, stalwart and bold he bearB keys that unlock every gate.

ENTERTAINED CLUB. Mrs. S. E. Swayne was hostess Thursday afternoon for a meeting of the Thursday Bridge club at her home in North Eleventh street. Mrs. !ti:y Shiveley, Mrs. John Shirk of Tir-tci Indiana, and Mrs. Earnest Findlay of Buffalo, New York, were guests for the afternoon. Bridge was played at several tables. Mrs. John Shirk and Mrs. Frank Lackey received the favors. Luncheon was served after the game. Airs. Frank McCurdy will entertain the club next Thursday afternoon.

JUDGE BARHORST DOES HIS DUTY TO RHEUMATIC SUFFERERS If you suffer from Rheumatism and don't read this advice, then the terrible disease must have robbed you of your power to be fair to yourself. Read it: "I, John Barhorst, Justice of the Peace of McLean Township, Ft. Loramie, Ohio, do certify that after treatment by three doctors without result, I have been cured of a very bad ca3e of Rheumatism by using two bottles of RHEUMA. It is now two years since I used the remedy, and I am still as well as ever. Previous to using RHEUMA I was a cripple, walking with crutches, and I feel it my duty to let other sufferers from Rheumatism know what it will do. The result seems almost miraculous to me. I have advised RHEUMA to at least a dozen persons, and each one speaks as highly of it as I. I will answer any one suffering from the disease if a two-cent stamp Is enclosed." May 31, 1912. You can secure a bottle of RHEUMA for only SO cents at Leo H. Fihe's and he says if not as advertised, money back. It's just as good for Gout, Arthritis, Lumbago and Sciatica. (Advertisement!

RICHMOND

MEN

EXPERIENCES Mayor V. W. Zimmerman, Lewis Iliff and Clarence Jessup of this city, went to Dayton yesterday in an automobile and succeeded, after abandoning their machine on the Dayton Viewbridge, in getting to the Algonquin hotel, in the center of town, by rowboat and by wading. At Monument street and the Dayton View bridge we got a rowboat and rowed to Ludlow street," Jessup stated last night.. "From Ludlow street we waded to the Algouquin hotel and we inquired of the manager of some Richmond people but they were not registered. The water was too deep for us to wade any further so we went back to Ludlow street, where we had left our boat, but it was not there and I had visions of being stranded there for three or four days and there were some men talking of the Lewistown dam having broken, which did not brighten us up any. "A little later a canvas canoe with three men in it came along and we hailed them. Fortunately one of the men in the boat was a traveling man, acquainted with Mayor Zimmerman, and he made room for us in the boat, although I thought it would sink any moment. When we finally landed at the bridge we all shook hands with ourselves." WHAT THE MAYOR SAYS. "The chief trouble at Dayton now is the lack of organization in the relief work which is being carried on," stated Mayor Zimmerman on his return from Dayton last evening. "No one seem a to have any say-so about anything. There are only a few boats available for use and these are not being worked with any attempt at system. They come and go at will and anyone uses them who wishes to. There are a few militiamen there, but they are not doing much. Everyone seems dazed. They seem to need someone to take charge and direct the work. "On the west side of the river they are nt suffering greatly except for lack of light and drinking water. They are crying for drinking water and for candles, all of which have been used up. "I procured a rowboat and went across the river to the Algouquin hotel. It is still standing. There seemed to be about three feet of water around it. "I attempted to get .in touch with the maycr of Dayton, tut all attempts to locate him were unavailing. I do not knew, but 1 think the people were all taken from the Steele High School building. I watched portions of its walls crumble aad fall. It 'cannot last lng. "I saw no evidences of looting, but heard that several had been shot. There are only about cue-half dozen militiamen cn the vst side of the rivtr. A block just south of the Deckel house was burning when I was there. 1 did mn see any other fires." McGU'RE'S STATEEMENT. Charles McGuire, who made the trip to Dayton yesterday in an automobile in company with Fred Gennett, returned with a graphic tale of the stricken city. "It would be impossible to exaggerate and description of the conditions which exist in Dayton at present," he stated to a Palladium reporter last evening. "Conditions over there ore simply indescribable. There is no system to the' work of rescuing those marooned on the housetops and in trees. The rescuers are greatly handicapped by lack of boats. Only a few little canoes, probably pleasure craft from the hemes of some of the rich people near the river, are available for use. They are putting these to the

RELATE

IN FLOOD CITY beet use possible, but as their capacity is limited and they are unstable, they can be used only in still water, while it is out in the current that most of the unfortunates are." The bitter cold of last night swelled the death list greatly in the opinion of McGuire, who stated that there were hundreds of unfrtunatea still on the housetops and in trees who had been there without food or warmth since the first great deluge last Monday, and so weakened from the continued exposure that he thought they would perish in great numbers tonight, especially the women and small children, who are in the majority. Loss of Property. "To attempt to even guess at the property loss would be impossible. However, as far as I could see, the larger and most substantial buildings of the business district are only slightly damaged. It is the dwelling houses out in Riverdale and directly across the river that have suffered most. It is there also that the great loss of life has been. When the dykes broke the people had no time to flee. "I saw no evidences of looting. Everything seemed to be quiet. No disorder of any kind. It seems to be the citizens themselves that are taking hold of things. As far as I could see there were no militiamen or police in evidence. I heard that soldiers had been sent from Columbus to Tippecanoe City and were marching towards Dayton. That is what it needed, someone with executive ability who can take hold and direct the rescue work. The real work of rescue has not started yet and will not start until the river has receded and boats are brought in. "Dayton people appreciate very much the aid that had been given them by Richmond. I was told that it was the first assistance of any importance that had been received so far. Over there they want boats and drinking water more than anything else. They have plenty of food. The number of persons rescued so far has not been great enough to even burden the people of West Dayton who are caring for them. "As to the number of deaths, it will not be known for certain until the waters go down. Only in a few cases which I saw was any attempt made to recover dead bodies. Everything is for the living. more delicious, more THE
