There seemed to be a lump in my stomach and the Constipation was dreadful. I suffered from Pain in the Hack and Kidney Disease. I was treated by a physician for a year and a half and he did me no good at all. I tried " Fruit-a-tivcs " as a last resort. After using three boxes, I was greatly improved and twelve boxes made me well. Now I can work all day and there are no Headaches, no Palpitation, no Heart Trouble, no Constipation, no Pain or Kidney Trouble and I feel like a new being and it was "Fruit-a-tives" that gave me back my health".

Cultivate It Earnestly, but Do Not Carry It to Excess. Thrift is a composite quality. It em braces within itself nearly all of the great virtues. It involves industry, prudence, forethought, self denial. It certainly has no relation to nig gardliness or meanness. Some men would let their grand mothers starve for the sake of a few dollars. Such action cannot be called thrifty. A virtue carried to excess be comes a vice and is no longer a virtue. Thrift that does not take iuto part nership honesty of character develops into covetousness and avarice. Thrift is the opposite of thriftless ness, prodigality, improvidence and waste. Thrift means better homes and bet ter food, more comfort and enjoyment, less waste and less anxiety. It is possible that a large proportion of people have earnings so small that saving seems impossible. But this is no reason for their being unthrifty. On the contrary, it is reason for making the best and the most of the little they have for their health, comfort and true happiness. A few dollars in a home or a savings bank, or any safe invesment, Is as good seed as ever was sown. Out of it grow confidence, quickened energies, firmer courage, more stalwart thought and hope, more orderly citizen ship, education for the children and the independence and self respect that lift aimless, hopeless drudges up to the true manhood that aspires and achieves.

At a native wed ding in Bombay the wedding guests literally "paint the town red" by throwing on one another a kind of red powder until they are crimson from head to foot. Their disordered white draperies, the stains and splashes on 1 their faces and hair give them the ap pearance of victims of a massacre. In India halls which may be secured for a small rental are provided for these ceremonies. But weddings are also celebrated in the Hindu temples, with priests in attendance. In a Hindu temple a bride of twelve must seat herself on a stone and be drenched with water by her bridesmaids. Be hind her, her mother is subjected to a similar deluge, and at a short distance behind the bride's mother the grand mother undergoes the same treatment, while in front of the dripping trio two priests sit beside a briskly burning wood fire mumbling the prescribed words for the ceremony. One casts a few grains of rice into the fire and the other, with a ladle, throws into it a few drops of oil. During these performances the bride groom, seated in a carriage outside the temple, receives the congratula tions of his friends. In the far east the bridegroom would seem to be the member of the party most to he en-Tied.- People's Home Journal. T7mt averaged one war la every twenty mA twe-fteremtaa j CALEDONIA COUNTY.
