Charity begins at home and generally likes the place so well that it settles down to stay, Girls may be dead anxious to get married, but the average old bachelor has generally met one who wasn't. After ..a small boy has feasted on green apples lie is apt to lead a double life for n few hours. There is seldom a man who will not gladly miss a meal In order to get a chance to talk ahout himself. It ^ easy enough to withstand temptation when n man has had enough. Rome men lack just one Ihlug to make their happiness complete, and that Is some one to pay their debts. A man should be careful about proposing over the telephone, for the girl at central may accept him before the message gets down to the one for whom it wn? Intonrto.l Some wouien regard the marriage certificate as equivalent to a sight draft for a new bonnet. Her Boys. She simply couldn't do her hair According to the stylo Nor wear a gown with queenly air Nor like a cherub smile; Her figure wasn't "Just divine" Nor like a fawn's her eye; 'Twas more like yours or, mayhap, mine; I cannot tell you why. She sung not like a seraph sweetShe didn't sing at nil? But when her boys lire on the street Then you should hear her call! And at her summons sharp her boys Came trooping In to her; They left their playmates, play and noise Without the least demur. When It was lime to go to l>ed They slipped in for the night. And not a single word was said? Oh. they obeyed all right! Nor, though the woman couldn't sing Nor of the style take heed. Of raising hoys she knew a thing Or two; she did Indeed. For she who wouldn't do her hair In qnlte the latest kink Could guide her hoys with patient care, Their hearts to hers could link; Could find a smile for boisterous plays. For boyish hurts a kiss. Where's further need to sing her praise? What's greater praise than this? Strange. "There Is something uncanny about that l?oy ami his mother." "I see nothing unusual." "But there is though.

But every season, Ar regular as the old sassafras man And, no doubt, according to an all wise plan. You'll find It at Its post Giving up the ghost. Where Will you find heroism so rare? I Bald once, but It may be twice? It's all the same priceIt may be more; A score Of times Only primes It for a bumper crop. You can't stop It by a little thing like that. It stands pat And Is more than willing To take a good killing Every day In March. That doesn't take the starch Out of it Or cause It to quit; Oh, no! Though It dies to slow Music three times a day. It's Just as gay Next morning As though It hadn't died a-bornlng. That's Just Its roguish way. The peach crop must have its play. But when the harvest season Is at har.d You will find It Jauntily doing business at the old stand. His Great Sorrow. The old man buried his face In his bnnds and wept. All his life he had worked hard and had tried to do right and to hold the respect of his fellow uien. He had been a good husband and a kind father, but it availed him not in the hour of his extremity. That very morning his wife had cut over a pair of his son's castoff trousers and had insisted tlmf he must wear them. Talk not of grief until you have seen a case of this sort. Couldn't See the Joke. "He evidently has no sense of humor." "None whatever. I have seen him mad enough to fight just because a small hoy knocked his best hut ofT with a snowball and sent It flying Into a pool of muddy water." Coming events are quite apt to send their bills before. A fumlly Jar is sometimes a spice Jar. To the good nil things arc Rood that bnve the ball mark of a first clans denier upon them.

We wish this store to l>e known as one where the best of everything that drug stores handle can l>e had. Quality is the test we apply in buying all goods. If quality is so important to us as dealers, it should lx) even more important to you as consumers. The fact that quality of goods is high does not mean that prices arc high, the contrary is true. Our prices, quality considered, are valways low; this is quite apt to be the case with any store that insists of giving you good goodp. _ ! ? on us??#? Agents for Huylcr's Candies. DUKE DRUG CO.
