SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS.

IIV "NT.Mfl."
t-1
To YOUNO MKN IN LOVK (.'ltd Alti
clo): Somo day, when you have tolled
for her awhile longer, and gathered a
reasonable amount of worldly goods
for her protection and comfort, she
will plaeo her hand confidingly in
yours in the prcsenee of witnesses.
With her "I will!" alio will forswear
liberty. Her wistful eyes will he raised
in tender love- toward yours as sho
makes the greatest sacrifice of he'r life;
for that is what it is, as you will ap
preciate if you stop to think. What
will those eyes see in you? A hero.
Sho thinks you are one, if she is loving
you for yourself alone; and I am pre
suming she is. You are to her a
knight, a cavalier, a hero bold; she
glories in your strength or your kind
ness, or somo quality that makes her
esteem you abovo all others. Though
a hundred men pass before her in te-
view, they are wavtd aside to their
own disparagement, when sho com
pares them with you. Just as ardently
as you admire her docs she admire you!
But sbo is only dreaming of your hero
ism and goodness I The dream is one
so beautiful (or you to consider, that
to awaken her to a different reality
will be cruel pain. If you are shroud
ing your real character aud deceiving
her as to your motives, try now to
opes your aoul wide to the qualities
the Jotee. Leathern, rush in uatil you
re poMoteod bytWm, so that he may
never bare before ber eyes the sorrow
aBd distress of ,an illusion. Be wbat
she thinks you are; and while she will
still remain ibe more powerful to
mould and the greater in heart (how
true!) she will nevertheless look up to
you as though she were the lesser.
What a sweet offering of incense to
your proud and happy spirit that will
be! Deception as to goodness and
nobility until both become habits of
the soul, is worth the effort of carry
ing on, and when fully attained will
make the life together a growth in the
sweetest graces of humanity.
MV KNIGHT.
Why do I love him, my noblu Knight?
It It because of his iha.no bright
Or hid strong tight hand and his bounding
health.
Or his costly garb and Ills worldly wealth?
In It became of his wooing sweet
Or the gifts he tllnga at my favored feet?
Is It becauso of the noble race,
Wbenco be boasts bis lineage, proud, to trace?
Ab nol 'Us because, for the love of tne
Ue bai cheerfully donned bis imnoply
Stalwart and bravo beyond compare. r
But genUe and kind to bis lady fair.
Clad to an armor of truth Is be,
Wilh the stainless shield of purity,
And aaword unsheathed to uphold Uie right,
That's why I love him, my Knight, my Knight II

You smile at the old fable about the
greedy dog that dropped a bono in
order to snateb at its reflection in the
Water below. Beware of simillar
foolishness! In the present statu of
your feeling you admire the beauty,
the good sense, the inodrsty, the at
tractive ways of the woman of your
choice. You look up to ber aud sho
can raise you in all that is worthy.
The progress of 1000 years is being en
joyed by you; the ages during which
woman has grown, under the iullucnce
of a vlrgon's son, from a creature of
utility to the Jew and a creature of
pleasure to the Gentllo, into u radiant
help-mate that draws out of man moro
fully the divine possibilities of bis
nature; these ages aro epitomised in
your love. The gain to you from her
devotion is, in a measure, like the gaiu
of the world from her dear sex since
the Christian Era. Just as we expect
ber influenco to keep tho world con
tinuously progressing, so may your
gain keep on growing as you como to a
fuller knowledge of her. O, groidy
one! Is this not enough? You are a
bettor man bacause she loves you be
fore marriage, This Is tho substance
now in your possession. Will you for
get it all and rush through tho gates
of love as though the Creator had from
Or. Price' Gnmi Baking Powder
A Prlas Craw Tarter tVwttor-
till time planned to form this particu
lar woman lor your particular pietism o ?
If you do, tho shadow alone will be
yours. I ho substance of love Is her
entire nature and its effects on joti;
the shadow is physical pleasure in
dulged in for your own sake. Hero is
tho wrecking point of many a fair whip
of marriage that has started joyously
over tho sea of life. The polar star of
united helpfulness is forgotten in the
presence of passion's llicket lug light.
The joyousness comes to an end, tho
act of lovo now lowered to meto in
stinct rounds out tho full deslte, In
creased indulgence call for further in
dulgence, sense becomes all-in-all, and
then last aud worst stage of all tho
heart goes wandering any whet e and
everywhere seeking physical pleasure,
and it becomes almost a matter of in
difference whether it bo one woman or
another that furnishes tho pleasure.
Tho fruits of Paradise will then have
changed in your grasp to the ashiuess
of Dead Sea apples. Evil within you
will have triumphed over good and tho
corpso ot love be gibed at by the demon
of lust.
See the young life as n stately ship riding
Over the sea like a water bird gliding,
Will she wait till the levin of passion Is shed,
Or follow love's polo star so pure overhead?
Carelessly trimmed, a light baud on the tiller,
The billows and surges of evil days fill her,
She drifts to the depths that are dulled by the
dead;
Though the pole star of love shines so pure
overhead.
The helmsman, half blinded, his fears ever
tightening, '
la waiting the flash of tho futcatadyghloliif, .
Vainly he trusts by Us fire to tisM, j
When the pole star of love shines so pure over
head. Shattered and scorched by the guide he awaited
The hilmsaian lies dead on the vessel Ill-fated,
Ala's for the victim by passion misled,
Who trusts not love's pole star so puis overhead.

Next week's letter will be the last in
this line of thought for tho preiont, al
though the subject is not by any means
exhausted, I need to oinphnsizo that
these articles are direct appeals from
my young heart to yours. A saner,
better idea of marriage so fateful in
its influence on the generations of tho
twentieth century, is what wo nil need.
So hear with mo in what I have yet to
say concerning our relation to the wo
men wo love.
According to a celebrated anatomist,
there aro upwards of 5,000,000 little
glands In tho luunnn stomach. These
glands pour out tho digestive juices
which dissolve or digest the food, In
digestion is want of juice, weakness of
glands, need- of help to restore the
health of thoso organs. Tho best and
most natural help Is that given by
Shaker Digestive Cordial. Natural be
cause it supplies tho materials needed
by the glands topreparotho digestive
juices. Because it strengthens and in
vigorates tho glands ami tho stomach,
until thoy aro ablo to do their work
alone. Shaker DigtstivoCordial cures
indigestion certainly and permanently.
It does so by natural means, and there
in lies tho secret of its wonderful mid
unvaried success.

A BRILLIANT PAGEANT.
Ringllng Uros ' the Grandest Display
Ever Seen in America.
Athirty-sectlonfteo street parade!
this is tho startling novelity which
Klngling Brothers, the noted circus
managers, offer the public this year as
tho latest ovlpenco of their originality
and munllicont expenditure. Tho idea
of dividing a circus procession into di
visions is in itself a novelty, while the
way In which tho original jchcmu has
been worked out not only reflects
great credit upon these always pro
gressive managers, but makes the
street parades of other institutions
look small and tawdry in comparsion
with it. In tho city of Chicago, where
Mingling Bros, famous circus has ex
hibited over one hundred times to the
largest audiences .ever seen in tho
World's fair eity, tho leading newspa
pers unhesitatingly declare that Ming
ling Bros.' streot parade Is tho most
novel, tho most unique, tho most gor
geous and tho most royally resplendent
street display over inaugurated by a
circus management. And even this
does not tell tho full story of its won
ders. Each section represents somo
distinct national characteristic, either
in this or other countries, ot some
noted historic era, whilethecostuming,
the tableaux, ornamentation and the
vari-colors of the huge dens and cars
of sta to aro so arranged as to blend in
harmony or to create striking and ef
fective contrasts to the artistic eye.
Among the notable features in the
thirty sections into which the parade is
divided, are characteristic representa
tions of all the most noted military or
ganizations in the world, all in their
national uniform; properly accoutred
ana mountea on magnincent war
horses; a military convoy in the Pun
jaub, with its ponderous elephants,
drawing great lumbering cannon and
bearing East Indian sharpshooters in
their oscilliatlve howdahs, together
with guides, native soldiers and all the
impedimenta of au Indo-British army
on tho march; a blood-quickening re
production of tho Derby day meet,
with huge tally-hos, slender spiders,
pretty 7-carts, blooded racing stock,
Londou's society leaders, jockeys,
touts aud other characteristic features
of English racing life; a brilliant
picture of Roman aud Grecian splendor
as pictured in the great spectacles of
Homo anil Athens, together wilh tho
Olympian games and charioteering of
tho historic days of Agustus; a caravan
crossing tho desert; a complete
children's parade, with pony chariots,
tiny tableaux, miniature cages aud
other novel effects delightful to tho
childish sense; 10 bands of music, over
a hundred deus, cages and tableaux
cars, aud many other unique represen
tations, each presented complete in its
individual section, and comprising in
their entirety tho most bewildering
beautiful and effective street display
ever coiiccivcu or successfully or
ganized. It is this wondet fully new
and novel procession that will inau
gurate circus day in Red Cloud next
Thursday, September 2nd, and thoso
who fail to see it will miss the greatest
event, outside of tho performance it
self, that has been presented to the
publlo during the present century.
Reserved seats and admissions will bo

I do not know just why it is: I can-
not understand, but somehow things
dou't seem to go the way that they wore
plauned. There was Willie Wllkins

natural fool to be, has been ten j cuts

Thi'i'o was Little Loggias, just as
modest as could he, sho is wearing
knickerbockers and sho Is a sight to

she Is now addressed as "Mi's." and is
ma of seven kids; and the boy who
said he'd write his name with fames
eternal etew, you will hud It largely
written, "Old Bill Bog j;ins, debtor to"
For tho things wo mostly llguro on aro
tho tilings wo do not. get, and tho
castlo we havo bullded Is the one that
Is marked, "To let." Tho parson says
the heavenly land Is bright aud full of
bliss. I hope he's better posted than
he Is concerning this, for ho said, "the
righteous hunger not, nor do their
seed bug bread" Pcrhans thov don't.
but, if thoy don't, they sometimes
starve iustead. And I often almost
wondor if tho next world wont sur
prise, by being just about tho thing we
never did surmise, but I trust that this
is error, for I would not think mayhap
that the ono who goes to hades is tho
one who strikes the suap. Minne

"Does Farming Pay?"
An insufferable guy, we have mislaid
bis name, is sending out circulars to
the farmers of Nebraska asking, "Does
Farming Pay!" What's tho matter
with that sucker, anyway? Of course
it pays. It pays to live just to live
in Nebraska, even if you don't do any
thing. We sco this demonstrated by
the number of men who roost on dry
goods boxes in tbo summer and sit
around the stove iu tho winter and ab
sorb tho heat that costs somebody else
tS per ton iu its crude state, and who
eat, unnK and bo merry ou tho results
of the toil of others; who are so mis
talucd and soothed by tho delightful
climate and entrancing scenery that
they aro too infernal lazy to do any
thing but talk of things thoy know
nothing about, chew tobacco and
smoke pipes and cigars, nnd then go to
the meals that, their wives or somepno
