If they mistake, Or tread upon some flower that we would take Upon our heart, or bruise some reed, Or crush some poor hope until it bleed, We must be mute, Not turning- quickly to impute Grave fault; for they and we Have such a little way to go-can be Together such a little while along the way; We will be patient while we may. So many little faults we find ! We see them, for not blind Is love. We see them, but if you and I Pehaps remember them, some by-and by They will not be Faults then-grave faults to you and me, But just odd ways, mistakes or even less, Remembrances to bless. Days change so many things-yea hours; We see so differently in sun and showers. Mistaken words tonight May be cherished by tomorrow's light. We must be patient, for we know ''There's such a little way to go." STAND ALONE Terrible Suffering From Headache, Sideache, Backache, and Weak ness, Relieved bj Cardin, Says This Texas Lady. Gonzales, Tex.- Mrs. Minnie Phil pot, of this place, writes: "Five years ago I was taken with a pain In my left side. It was right under my left rib. It would commence with an aching and extend up into my left shoulder and on down Into my back. By that time the pain would be BO severe I would have to take to bed, and suffered usually about three days .. .1 suffered this way for three years, and got to be a mere skeleton and was so weak I could hardly Btand alone Was not able to go anywhere and had to let my house work go...I suffered awful with a pain in my back and I had the headache all the time. I just was unable to do a thing. My life was a misery, my 6tomach got in an awful condition, caused from taking BO much medicine. I suffered BO much pain. I had just about given up all hopes of our getting anything to help me. One day a Birthday Almanac was thrown in my yard. After reading its testimonials I decided to try Car dui, and am so thankful that I did, for I began to improve when on the second bottle...I am now a well woman and feeling fine and the cure has been permanent for it has been two years since my awful bad health.

Upon These Arguments We Rest YOU, the buyers, are the real builders of wagons. You put the final Okay upon the use of certain materials and con struction when you buy a wagon containing them-and refuse to buy a wagon that does not. We want to show you how the Thornhill Wagon is built. Upon a plain statement of facts we are willing to rest our case. We believe the Thornhill way would be your way if you should build a wagon. For spokes and axles tough second growth highland hickory is used For hubs and felloes the sturdy white oak is preferred. This wood grows upon the mountain side. The ground is hard the climate severe. It has to fight for life. It has nearly twice the strength of oak and hickory that grows under softer conditions. Outdoors under shelter it remains for three to five years. Th? sap dries in it, giving it a strength that's kin to steel. Full Circle Iron Malleable Front Houn Plate Trussed Bolsters and Gears Long Wear Beds ?elston Can't Wang tn Turning In turning and backingup, with the ordi nary circle iron, which is only a half circle, olsters run off the end of the track and Hang. It is difficult to make short tums and back up. The Thornhill full circle iron gives a continuous track on which thc bol sters can turn. The gears of Thornhill wagons stay in line for life. Instead of the usual front hound plate, a hound plate of malleable hon is used. It is a metal jacket braced at eight points that keeps gears from ever getting out of linc. On the front bolsters of Thornhill wagons are heavy iron plates running along top and bottom-connected by rivets that run clear through the bolster. Strength and lightness are combined. Rear gears are strongly ironed. There are braces on both top and bottom that extend the full lesgth of thc . hounds. Solid trust bars extend the full length of thc axles giving them double strength. If you examine the beds of Thornhill Wagons closely you will see at once the superiority of the construction. The bottoms are re-inforccd over front and rear bolsters. Come in and examine this wagon for yourself. We will take pleasure and pride in showing you a Thornhill-rThe wagon made of tough highland .oak and hickory-with features all others lack.
