HCW DO THE FLOWERS CROW?
•'Oh. Sasre, in wondrous wLdom old,
Tell me how the flowers do ttrow—
Whence como the colors, purple, gold,
In which they rise, and bloom and glow?"
“My child, the flowers are words of God i
8own in seeds of silent good.
They draw their strength from 'nealh the
sod
But Heaven sends them daily food.
“The sun, the moon, the stare conspire
To make them live and bud and blow,
The breezes help them to aspire,
And dews perfume them as they grow.
“But 'tis the rainbow from the skies,
Broken by the Uain King s blow,
That sprinkles them with Heavenly dyes
And mokes them with such splendor
glow."
—Rev. 8. W. Small,in How to Grow Flowers.

Attracts such intellectual men? Maud
. Qhj no; she told me she always
Jilanned her gowna when they talk to
her, and that gives her face that in

' J t ru8 t> she said, patronizingly,
that you are a true artist—that you
confine your efforts to an elevated
plane. Assuredly, I do, madam,”
^as the reply. “I am a frescoer and

“Well, darling?” said the indulgent
mother. “Mamma, don’t yon think

Let’s move round to the front porch.”
Ethel—Why didn’t you attend Pro

“My friends,” said the minister,

Kfffect of Water.
There are two interesting instances
of the effect of water upon the human
system. In the Alps and the Pyrenees
there is a race of people who are old
men at fifteen years of age, and who
die at thirty; this being entirely dna
to their drinking lime water. The
Chinese, on the other hand, drink
nothing but rain water, and, as a
nation, their longevity is proverbial.

that official authorities could bestow

“I am willing to be arrested. I have
no place to go but the streets, and it
Is better to be in prison,” points a
moral—if it does not adorn the tale of
nineteenth century philanthropy. A
woman about thirty years old went In
to a large dry-goods store, and openly
laid hold of what she could get her
hands on. When remonstrated with,
she averred that she preferred being
locked up to spending the night on the
streets.

Gained 31 Pounds in 5 Weeks.
From the By-Slander, Macomb, IB.
Alderman Lonis W. Camp, of our city, has
guile astonished his friends, by a remark
able gain in weight. He has gained 22 pounds
*n five weeks. Those of his friends
who do not know the facts of his sick,
ness will read with interest the following:
“I was broken down in health and utter
ly miserable," said Mr. Camp to our re
porter. “I was unable to work much of the
time and so badly afflicted with a form of
stomach trouble that life was a veritable
nightmare. .
“I tried various remedies, but during the
six months of my sickness l obtained no re
lief. I had always been a robust, healthy
man and sickness boro heavily upon me.
“About two years ago 1 was advised to
try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Tale Peo
ple. I purchased one box and received so
much benefit that I used five more and was
entirely cured. I gained twenty-two pounds
in jive weeks. Since I stopped taking the
pills I have scarcely had an ache or pain.
Interviewing the Alderman.
“Dr. Williams’ rink Pills restored me to
health and I most heartily recommend
them.”
L. W. Camp on oath says that the forego
ing statement Is true.
