PREACHER AND THE POET. Writer Speculate on Shakespeare at a Churchgoer. Probably . Shakespeare did his own thinking on questions of religion, said little, and conformed strictly tothe ex isting order. Still we question if he was a good churchgoer. The town aDd church of Stratford had a decided bent toward Presbyterlanlsm, and there Is reason to think that he did not get on well with it in this respect. Him self the wisest of preachers; he does not seem to have been fond of preach ing. That which sounds most like ft and very wise it is comes from Polonlus, whom he calls "a prating old Tool." We fear that when he walked to church with his wife he went no farther than the porch, but strolled along the Avon, where he was found by Susanna and Judith on "a grassy bank" in close converse with "daisies pied and violets blue," and "herb-o'-grace" as became Sunday. And in winter he was not sorry "wien cough ing drowned the parson's saw." The preacher and the poet have never got on well together, and will not until they are identically the same person, as Cardinal Newman says; and they must not divide and antagonize what Sod have joined together.

"Last year, after having my little girl treated by a very prominent phy sician for an obstinate case of ec zema, I resorted to the Cuticura Rem edies, and was so well pleased with the almost Instantaneous relief afford ed that wo discarded the physician's prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Reme dies her feet and limbs were covered with running sores. In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble. "In July of this year a little boy in our family poisoned his hands and arms with poison oak, and In twenty four hours his hands and arms were a mass of torturing sores. We used only the Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and anointing them with the Cuticura Ointment, and then gave him the Cuticura Resolvent. In about three weeks his hands and arms healed up. So we have lots of cause for feeling grateful for the Cu ticura Remedies. We find that the Cuticura Remedies are a valuable household standby, living as we do twelve miles from a doctor. Mrs. Liz zie Vincent Thomas, Fairmont, Wal den's Ridge, Tenn., Oct 13, 1905." At a Disadvantage. "The court fortune teller la going to resign," said one Russian official. "Yes," answered the other; "he Is at a disadvantage. If he predicts bad news, he comes into royal disfavor, and if he predicts good news, it doesn't come true." Washington Star. The foundation of pride Is the wish to respect one's self, whatever others may think; the mainspring of vanity is the craving for the admiration of others, no matter at what cost to one's self-respect.

A Scot has written for the London Journals an argument in favor ol wearing kilts, especially in. cold , weather. A fashionable physician of London supports his argument, and the Tailor and Cutter admits that the streets would be made more pic turesque, furthermore the kilt would put an end to "baggy -kneed trousers." A pair of trousers that bag at the knees is Indeed a loathsome object. The question of wearing kilts is not one of leg exposure to the cold of winter, nor is it one of compara tive durability and economy in ma terial. It is chiefly a question of legs, remarks' Boston Herald. The Psalmist said of the Lord: "He taketh not pleasure In the legs of a man." Nevertheless, civilized man, a vain thing, vainer than the average woman, is conscious of his legs. They must be sculptured if the kilt is to be donned. Thackeray's marquis of Flarintosh appeared at Parisian court balls in his uniform of the Scotch archers or in his native Glenlivat tartan, and he thought there was no handsomer young nobleman; but look at Doyle's picture of him, and lo, he was a sight. We may all be deceived in this respect. The most bow-legged may fondly imagine that his left at least is a poem. There are eminent statesmen, judges, phil anthropists who, kilted, would appear as inconsiderable beings, , things of naught, yet they may rise superior to baggy trousers or even to those worn at half-mast. Aged African Explorer. While many of the great 'explorer of Africa among them Barth, Speek, Livingstone, Burton, Rohlfs, Nachtl gal, Stanley have passed away, one of the pioneers, George Schweinfurth, celebrated his seventieth birthday a few weeks ago in perfect health, and as eager for work as ever. When he first visited Africa, in 1863, even the Nile regions were largely terra in cognita. He explored the Delta, the deserts, the region between the Nile and the Red sea; he leaded Arabic, and soon became so acclimated that Africa seemed his real home a para dise compared to Europe, with its "wretched, insufferable civilization." Thus it was that he felt himself drawn deeper and deeper, into the Dark con tinent. His "Heart of Africa" appear ed in 1874, and was promptly trans lated into all the European languages. His later works attracted less atten tion, as they were addressed chiefly to savants. In recent years he has devoted much time to the preparation of charts of the Eastern desert of Egypt. Many of his papers have ap peared in the periodical of the Berlin Geographical society and the Zeit schift fur Ethnologie. Although his specialty has ',een botany, he has made many important contributions to an thropology, among the more recent ones being an attempt to throw a light on Egyptian antiquity and or igins by the aid of the botanical con tents of old tombs. Tier liners .are congratulating them selves on the gradual disappearance of their second-class cabs and the multiplication of auto-cabs. The latest count showed that of the cabs of all kinds, 7,713 altogether, 503 were au tomobiles. All of these are in such great demand that their receipts often rise to $ 15 a day, and never fall below five dollars. They are allowed to charge seven cents more than ordi nary cabs. The number of auto-om nibuses was 947, as against 3,343 street cars. These ominbuses make almost as good time as the auto-cabs. Accidents rarely happen, largely ow ing to the abundant supply of police men. At the Potsdamer Platz alone there arc 14 of them, and they have very little to do, their mere presence making the drivers and chauffeurs careful to observe the ordinances. A Chicago woman says that it is "inhuman cruelty" to tax bachelors, because bachelors cannot help being bachelors. She holds that many men try in vain to win a wife and give up in despair. This leads the Baltimore Sun to say the Chicago women have almost as peculiar views, it seems, as the Chicago men. Somebody wants to know whether there is any difference in the weight of water when in liquid form and when that same quantity is turned to ice. Offhand we should say not, but there's a big difference in the price. The waiting maids in Ottawa, Can., belong to the Servant Girls' union, and refuse to serve dinner after six o'clock. They expect the aid of the cook-ladies and the dish-washing dam sels, who will undoubtedly encourage them with a sympathetic strike. The glove-cutters in France earn big wages, some of them getting as much as $75 a week. So difficult is the art of cutting kid gloves that most of the principal cutters are known to the trade by name and fame. A Big Bargain for 12 Cents Postpaid.

There are a great many very com petent treatises telling you how to build your fire, pitch your tent and all the rest of it. I have never seen des cribed the woodman's method of using a blanket, however. Lie flat on your back. Spread the blanket over you. Now raise your legs. rigid from the hips, the blanket, of course, draping over them. In two swift motions tuck first one edge under your legs from right to left, then the second edge un der from left to right, and over the first edge. Lower your legs, wrap up your shoulders and go to sleep. If you roll over one edge will unwind but the other will tighten. Stewart Edward White in Outing. ' Crisis Averted. The two men met, stopped and glared at each other. Then one of them spoke. "Rivers," he said, "you are wrong! It's a lie! I haven't the grip!" "Brooks," impulsively exclaimed the other, "it's an infamous falsehood! It's a base slander! I don't know of any cure for the grip, and I wouldn't tell you of it if 1 did!" Then they solemnly shook hands and passed on. Inducement to Undertakers. The following advertisement ap peared in a paper of a small town in Colorado: ."For Sale An old established, well paying undertaker's establishment. The city is in a very unhealthy loca tion, where the mortality is very great. There is only one doctor in the whole town. The deaths from fever alone pay the expenses, and the rest Is clear profit. There is no competi tion." Judge. Keep Your Face tt the Sunlight. I know an old man who has had a good deal of trouble and many lossea and misfortunes, but he started out in life with a firm determination to ex tract just as much real enjoyment from it, as he wenf along, as possible not in dissipation, but in wholesome recreation and fun. He has always tried to see the humorous side and the duty of happiness. O. S. Warden In Success Magazine. RIGHT SORT OF CORN BREAD. Found Only in Tennessee, According to Nashville American. The best cornmeal in the world Is made in Tennessee though the out put is limi'pd and not much of it reaches the market where urbanites dwell The steam buhrstone has driven the water mill almost into desuetude, only to be in turn crowded out by the modern roller mill. The ancient .water mill still lingers in re mote sections and "mountain fast nesses where clear waters flow through pebbly channels in sylvan shades. More than one of these ideal mills may be found on Fighting creek in Sevier county, under the shadows of the Big Smoky, and near unto Sugarlaad region, where the untaxed juice of the corn flows from modest aud retiring stills. There are many such mills in the Unaka region, and in various sections of middle Tennes sae, where the withering blight of modern civilization, with its canned foods and packing house meats, has not yet penetrated, and where one nay Listen to the water mill Through the Uveloni? day, "While the clicking of its wheel Wears the weary hours away. But they don't bring the meal to town. The town-raised person's taste is too vitiated to appreciate it, says the Nashville American. WThen he eats corn bread at all with his oleo margarine or canned soup, he wants the roller mill product, which sug gested he idea of sawdust breakfast food to a Battle Creek Yankee. The right sort of corn bread is made lrom meal ground on a slow-running water mill from sorn that has been well dried, the little end of the ear shelled oft for the chickens or pigs, the rot ten grain; carefully eliminated, and the corn run through a fan mill. Be fore being made into bread the meal is sifted through a wire sieve or sift er, the meshes of which are not too fine. Then if good bread Is not pro duced it is the fault of the cook. The use of sugar in making any form of corn bread should be made a felony. There is as much difference between bread from properly ground meal and the common meal of commerce as there is between a Smithfield ham and a packing house ham. Cement for Brftken Glass. Plaster of paris, mixed into a paste with white of egg, makes a strong cement for mending broken glass or cbina; and another excellent cement is made as follows: Into a small bot tle press as much isinglass as will fill it, then pour in by degrees un sweetened gin, which will gradually dissolve the Isinglass if the bottle is kept in a warm place. j WHAT WESTERN CANADA DOES. Satisfactory Yields of Wheat and Good Prices. Dundurn, Sask., Sept. 30, 1906. Mr. W. H. Rogers, Canadian Govern ment Agent, Indianapolis, Ind. My Dear Sir: When you were at our place In July I promised to write, you what Ay north quarter made per acre. You will remember it was all sown to wheat. Well, I finished threshing yesterday and received from, it an average of 43, bushels per acre testing 64 pounds per stroked bushel. The wheat is the best sample I have ever raised so uniform and even in size. You may know it was a good sample when I tell you that I have already sold 2,000 bushels of it for seed to my neighbors. This year has been my best effort in farming during my life. My wheat totaled 9,280 bushels and my oats nearly 5,000. If you remember I pointed out to you a half section lying just west of our house and joining my upper quar ter on the south, which I said I should have in order to make one of the best farms in western Canada. I am very glad to be able to tell you that I now own that half section. My ambition now is to be able to market 20,000 bushels of wheat next year. If some of those good, honest Hoosiers could have been with me during, the last two weeks and could have seen the golden grain rushing down the spout into my wagon and then could have seen it in great piles in my granaries, I feel sure they would have been forced to acknowledge there is no better farm ing country in the world than this. I may just say that I have done all my farming with eight head of horses and one hired man except during harvest and threshing.' This year I proved to my neighbor that the Hoosiers, when once "woke up," can raise grain equal to the best Minnesota farmers. His best yield was 42 bushels per acre, so you see "old Indiana" is holding the ribbon this year. Yours very truly, N. E. BAUMINK. 80ME WIVES ARE DIFFERENT. Quiet Cynicism, or Good Honest Row Which Is the Better? "Most men," said the man of experi ence, "think it must be awfully nice to have a wife who takes things as coolly as Dave Potter's wife takes them; but others, more discriminat ing, prefer a good honest row to. her style of quiet cynicism. The way she behaved the other day when she found a letter in Dave's pocket from a girl is an example of her method. " T don't see,' wrote this girl, -'how on earth I can ever live without you.' "Dave's wife read that gush, and a lot more just like it, without ever turn ing a hair. " 'Well,' she said, quietly, 'that girl is a fool. If she knew you as well as I do she would be wondering how on earth she could ever live with you.' "And that, in the opinion of the dis criminating few, cuts , a whole lot deeper than a common, everyday rum pus." PREPARE THIS YOURSELF. Tells How to Make the Best Blood Tonic at Home. For those who have any form of blood disorders; who want new, rich blood and plenty of it, try this: - - Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. Any good pharmacy can supply the ingredients at small cost. This is the prescription which, when made up, is called "The Vegetable Treatment;" by others, the "Cyclone Blood Purifier." It acts gently and certainly does wonders for some peo ple who are sickly, weak and out of sorts, and Is known to relieve serious, long-standing cases of rheumatism and chronic backache quickly. Make some up and try it. Long Sermons. Mark Twain tells- this story, the moral of which you may supply your self: "I went to church one time and was so impressed by what the preach er told me about the poor heathen that I was ready to give up a hundred dollars of my own money and even go out and borrow more to send to the heathen. But the minister preached too long, and my enthusiasm began to drop about $25 a drop till there was nothing left for the poor heathen, and by the time he was through and the collection was taken up I stole ten cents off the plate."

Senators Much Alike. Senator Simmons, of North Carolina, and Senator Taliaferro, of Florida, look' enough alike to be twin brothers. They are about' the same size and build; each has a heavy crop of hair, which is kept closely trimmed, and their short,- stubby mustaches are much alike. Both have dark eyes and there is probably not two pounds difference in their respective weights. If .it were not for the fact that tho Florida senator has a few more gray hairs in his head than his North Caro lina colleague it would be almost im possible for the senate employes to tell them apart.

Mrs. Jocie Robbing, of 1121 Clar SJ., Decatur, 111., says: "I was weak, thin and troubled with neadacues. My appetite failed so that I did not rel ish my food. I was unable to do my work because my limbs pained me so and my feet were swollen. I got numb and dizzy, my tongue seemed at times to be paralyzed so that I couldn't speak distinctly. My extrem ities, when in this numb state, felt as if some one was sticking needles into me all over their surface. Through my shoulders at times I had such pain that I couldn't sleep. Many -times I awoke with a smothering sensation. "When the physician's remedies failed to benefit me I began to look for something that would.
