SAXON HAS 6IH0LED EARTH
Where the Thin Red Line Has Net
Qone Man Has Not
Found.
The Saxon has marked around
this earth, as no other race before
him, the scarlet circle of his power.
This thin, red Savon line, so thid
? "with his numlxTH, so red with his
blood, was made possible only by hia
heroism and his racial fealty.
Where this line has not pone man

sea; it has travers: I cvcrv desert; it
has sought every soli Utile-; it lias
passed through swamps when* only
the sacred ibis fishes; over sands that
have never been moistened; over
snows that have never melted. There
has been no storm it lias not encountered
; no pain it has not endured;
no race it has not fought and no disease
it has not contended with.
This Saxon line has been to the
earth a girdle heroic and tragic,
binding within itself all the old and
ancient places of the world. It has ,
been silent in i's duty, ignored in !
its aehicvement and scorned in its
devotion. Yet it has given down to
this now neglectful race a world such
as mankind has never known before;
an empire over which the sun and !
stars shine together and where night I
never falls nor (by dawns.?From 1

NO GIFTS ON EXHIBITION.
Jimmie had Iwen a naughty hoy,
we presume, so that there is a note
of pathos with the humor of the
conversation he conducted with the
little girl next door on the day aftei
his sixth birtlujuy, ??va the Cleve
land Plain Dealer.
"Show 1110 what you got for youi
birthday, Jimaiie," begged the littk
girl"I
won't do it," said Jimmie.
"Oh, please. Ain't 1 nice to you?"
"Yep. You're alt right."
"Then show me what you got."
"I diiresn't?honest. Marg'ret, I
dare not!"
Investigation revealed that the
poor kid had received nothing but a
spanking.
DISLIKES TITLE "PROFESSOR."
Here is a story of Wood row Wilson
that should have come to light
earlier. It is well known that Mr.
Wilson always objected to being
called "professor." Once while visiting
in Washington while still head
of Princeton, he met one of his trustees
on the street.
"Good morning, professor," culled
out the trustee heartily.
"If you must call me professor/
replied Mr. Wilson, "speak low, foi
every one around here will think thai
I am a bootblack."

TAKE CARE OF YOUR EYES
First Symptom* of Discomfort Should
Bo ths Signal for Prompt Remedial
Measures.
Nothing will more quickly interfere
with the general filing of wellbeing
than some abnormal condition
of the eyes. Working steadily du\
after day at some very absorbing occupation,
trouble with the eves may
come on almost imperceptibly. You
mnv have headache and lassitude be- !
fo'o locating the real diTieultv, so t
'hat the eve affection has gained
headway before it is detected. Yon
will feel as if there were a thickness
all about tlie eves, and between
I hem. Bon't go to the optician before
trying to core yourself. Tie
might put glasses on you which you
lo not. need. Ball ing the eves with
hot water, and a little borneic acid
or salt, will help them. However,
llie hot water loosens the skin about
the eves. Cold water solution may
not net as quickly, hut it will eventually
allay the difficulty. lee compresses
in the morning and at night
also bring relief. Wear an eyshade
while working, to keep the light from
striking downward on the eyes. In
a very irritated ease smoked glasses
may be worn in the street. But they
should be rather light, and dispensed
with as soon -as possible. Treat the j
eyes with the very first symptom of
discomfort.
EXTREME CASE.
"Is Spilks very susceptible to mal !
de mor?"
"It used to make him seasick j
to look at,a marcel wave."
GORY MOMENT.
"What's the mattej with Brigg3?"
"He was getting shaved bv a lady
harbor when a mouse ran across the
door." T :fe.
VERY CONSIDERATE.
"Is your present cook satisfactory

JUST THINK OF IT!
A Four Hundred Dollar Piano
Absolutely Given Away!
That advertising is now a science is
again demonstrated practically to the
buying public of this section by the
wonderful advertising system now employed
by the enterprising business
house of McElhaney & Co., who are
going to give away ABSOLUTELY
FREE to some one of their customers
on August 1 the beautiful CLAXTON
PARLOR GRAND PIANO which is
now on exhibition at their store. The
Claxton sells for FOUR HUNDRED
DOLLARS and is a HIGH CLASS instrument
in every respect, GUARANTEED
by the makers for TEN YEARS.
JUST THINK OF IT1 A Four hundred
Dollar Piano to be GIVEN AWAY!
A few years ago, if a merchant, was to
do such a thing he would be considered
a fit subject for an asylum, but conditions
have changed, yet in the face ol'
the enormous sum spent in advertising
the fact of McElhaney & Co. giving
away a $400 Piano is a stupendous un
dertaking and it clearly demonstrates
their desire to be "always up to and a
little ahead" of the spirit of the times.
Every purchaser of $1.00 worth of
Roods from any department of their
store will receive a coupon Rood for
100 votes on the Piano. The person
presenting the largest number of votes
to them on August 1 will receive the
Eiano absolutely free. No favors will
e shown and every person will be
given an equal chance. The reputation
enjoyed by McElhaney & Co. for
"square dealing" insures this fact.
We think the buying people will appreciate
this extremely liberal offer on the
part of McElhaney & Co. and we predict
a lively scramble for votes.-?Adv.
