When she came In from play she was taken to task, her mother saying severely: "Mary, haven't 1 told you (hat you must not hitch onto bobs? Ilosldes, you know, it Is against tho law."

Worse than this, you would speak more correctly should you say that doughnuts eaten at this peilod of the night give yon tho nightmare And to put an end to all doubts on the subject the goldon-orust"d confec tion was tried last year, the charitably disposed students ato generously be tween dances of the templing array of doughnuts offered for sale, and twit days following doctors In the neighbor hood of tho Midwaw did a rush busi ness.

With tho ad vertisement wns a caution concerning the ferocious royal Nubian lion, which was among the animals missing. The Instructions were to kill him on sight and take no chances.

TIMK, place und clrr-uniHtunccs the same b.h In our lust Ipbhom Suggestion and Practical Thought. Question How can wo live In this world without giving our tlmo nnd strength to gaining the things of the world? Answer-dod wants ns to have the best things of both vorlds, but we cannot havo tho best of this world without seeking first tho kingdom of Ood and Its righteousness. Two (Ireat Treasure-Ideals Placed Before Cs. 1. Earthly Treasures, v. 19. "Lay not up," use for needs, but not hoard up merely for the sake of holding possession. "For yourselves," selfishly, without thought oi what good can be done with this surplif. One test, of anjone Is what he does with his trnio and earnluus beyond what is necessary for bis own living and work. "Treasures upon earth." are the ma teilal things, connected with our phys ical needs ami desires, such as money, houses, clothing, food, pleasures. "Where moth and rust doth corrupt." The orientals had no savings banks, no bonds, in which to Invest their wealth: hence costly garments were a favorite way of hoarding wealth Hut these had one deadly euem. the moth Rust, the consumer, eon odor, refer ring not only to treasures hidden in the ground, but to houses, books, furni ture, etc. "Where ihleves break through" Lit., "dig through" the mud walls of a house. The Greek name for a burglar is a ' wall-digger." 2. Heavenly Treasures, v. liO. "Put lay up for yourselves treasures In Heaven." (lod wants us lo be rich, but with riches toward Cod, Heavenly treasures. This tefers Indeed to the blessedness of Heaven, all Its rewards, its glories, its joys; but chlelly to the kind of treasures which make Heaven what It Is, Heaven begun here on earth through tho heavenly life, treas ures of character, of enlarged being, of good deeds, of blessed work done, of souls made better, of faith, love, peace, godliness, brotherly kindness, lionesty, meekness, and all the fruits of the spirit. These Heavenly riches we may ucqulre and enjoy here Second. The Power of Heavenly Treasures Over Life. v. 21. "For where your treasure Is." That which you most prize and love and seek for. that Into which you put you life. 'There will your heart be also." Third. A Clear Vision of These Treasures Essential. Vs. 21!, 21!. "The light," of tho body, oiir earthly taber nacle, "Is the eye," as a lamp Is the light of a house. "If therefore thine eye bo single," etc., beolng things just as they nro, with no double vision. 23. "Thy whole body shall be full of darkness," groping in Ignorance, un certain as to truth and duty. 24. "No man can serve two mas ters," standing for opposite principles, belonging to hostile kingdoms, demand ing characters, feelings, lives and fruits that are In essential contradic tion of one another, as light and dark ness, god and evil. "Either he will hnte the one, nnd love the other." If one loves goodness ho must bate evil; If he loves evil, he will hate the good ness, which Interferes with it. "Ye cannot serve Ood and Mammon." Hut the question arises: How can wo live in this evil world without giv ing time and strength to tho gaining of worldly things, such as money, posses sions, houses, clothing, food, and the comforts of civilization? Tho answer Is: Cod wants us to havo the very best of both the heavenly and earthly, but we cannot havo the best of even this world without making (led and his righteousness first and chief Therefore, do right, seek first the kingdom or Ood, and do not bo anxious lest your Heavenly Father rail to keep his promises. Illustration. The physician author oi Why Worry? has a chapter on "The Doubting Folly," In which he shows tho evil or continually doubting whether we have done the right thing We havo all heard or the centipede with Its hundred feet "who could no longer proceed upon his Journey, when It occurred to him to question which foot ho should next advance" It Is tho worry of continually making nw decisions in minor things that ox hausts tho mind. One groat underly ing choice (settled once for all carry ing with It the whole being) to do right under all circumstances "tho single eye" both eyes seeing a single pur pose will solve most doubts nud questionings. Civic Virtue;. The happiness of tho republic de pends on the virtue of Its citizens. Po litical health Is as important as physi cal health. Religion Ih tho guiding stnr of nations as well as Individuals. If nlono can safeguard liberty. --Hlshop Comity, Worcester, Mass. Unveil a Goobel Monument. Frankfoit, Ky. The tenth anniver sary of the death of William (locliol. who was tho central llguro In one of the most stirring chapters in tho latter da.i of Kentucky's history, was ob served Thursday by the unveiling of a m.trblo and bronze monument above the grave In tho state cemetery hero. The body of his brother Arthur tloebol, who dovotod his llfo after tho assas sination to an effort to convict tho men he bellovcd guilty of tho mur der and died after his work had como to nnught, was laid to rest beside that of his brother. CHICAGO MERCHANT MAKES STATEMENT, After Spending Thousands of Dollars and Consulting tho Most Eminent Physicians, Ho Was Dcsperato. CHICAGO, ILLS.-Mr. J. Q. Becker, of 134 Van Durcn St., a well-known wholcsalo dry goods dealer, states as follows: "I havo had catarrh for moro than thirty years.
