Remarkable Fish.
"I thought you said there were fish
around here," said the disappointed
sportsman.
"There are,” replied Farmer Corn
tossel. "But they are experienced
fish. Moreover, they’re kind and con
siderate.”
"I haven't had a nibble.’’
“Well, you don't think they’d bite at
that brnnd-new fancy tackle, do you?
They'd stand off and admire it, but
they’d never take a chance on gettin’
it mussed up."

The stomach is the trunk of our
body. The stomach contains the liver.
The stomach is south of the lungs,

Master Gregory Graham, aged three,
had been having an ocean bath, and
breaking away from his older sister
he ran all dripping wet to the door of
the living room, where Mrs. Graham
was entertaining a caller from the
fashionable hotel.
“Why. Greg," his mother greeted
him. “you mustn't come in here like
that, dear. Go straight upstairs and
take off your bathing suit first."
A few minutes later Mrs. Graham
turned toward the door in curiosity
as to what sight there had sent her
visitor’s eyebrows up so high, and in
the same moment her son's cheerful
voice rang out:
“1 tooked it ofT, mother, like you
told me to. I’m coming in now for

GET POWER.
The Supply Comes From Food.
If we get power from food why not
strive to get aJI the power we can.
That is only possible by use of skil
fully selected food that exactly fits
the requirements of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a
poor fire is not a good steam producer.
“From not knowing how to select
the right food to fit my needs, I suf
fered grievously for a long time from
stomach troubles," writes a lady from
a little town In Missouri.
"It seemed as If I would never be
able to find out the sort of food that
was best for me hardly anything that
I could eat would stay on my stomach.
Every attempt gave me heartburn and
filled my stomach with gas. I got
thinner and thinner until I literally
became a living skeleton, and in time
was compelled to keep to my bed.
A few months ago I was persuaded
to try Grape-Nuts food, and it had such
good effect from the very beginning
that I have kept up its use ever since.
I was surprised at the ease with which
1 digested it. It proved to be Just
what I needed.
“All my unpleasant symptoms, the
heartburn, the Inflated feeling which
gave me so much pain disappeared.
My weight gradually increased from
98 to 116 pounds, my figure rounded
out, my strength came back, and I am
now able to do my housework and en
joy it. Grape-Nuts food did it.” Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Creek,
Mich.
A ten days’ trial will show anyone
some facts about food.

LAUGHTER PLEASING TO GOD
NowherA In Biblical Lore Can There
Be Found Intimation of Any
Other Idea.
We misjudge and distort the nor
mally human nuture of the Saviour
when we picture him going through
life, as Dante did after he had writ
ten his ’’lnferno.” with the shadows
of perdition on his brow. We may
gravely question when it was that the
cross begun to darken our Lord’s
pathway; there Is no hint of such
a foreboding until we reach the mid
dle of his ministry. From that on
there are occasional tokens that he
saw Calvary ahead of him, and was
at times pressed down with u dread
ful sense of the Inevitable agony
which awaited him at the end. But
all this is very far from affording any
reasonable ground for the conclusion
that he smiled sometimes, but never
laughed.
If God did not Intend us to laugh,
on occasion, why did he endow us
with the capacity to laugh, with a
sense of the humorous, with tho fac
ulty to see and enjoy wit, fun and
the absurd side of life: and, further
more, why did he produce so many
things and people to laugh at? —

LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA
"While attending school at Lebanon,
Ohio, in 1882, I became afflicted with
boils, which lasted for about two
years, when the affliction assumed the
form of an eczema on my face, the
lower part of my face being inflamed
most of the time. There would be
water-blisters rise up and open, and
wherever the water would touch it
would burn, and cause another one to
rise. After the blister would open,
the place would scab over, and would
burn and itch so as to be almost un
bearable at times. In this way the
sores would spread from one place to
another, back and forth over the
whole of my upper lip and chin, and
at times the whole lower part of my
face would be a solid sore. This con
dition continued for four or five years,
without getting any better, and in fact
got worse all the time, so much so
that my wife became alarmed lest it
prove fatal.
“During all this time of boils and
eczema, I doctored with the best phy
sicians of this part of the country, but
to no avail. Finally I decided to Try
Cuticura Remedies, which I did, tak
ing the Cuticura Resolvent, applying
the Cuticura Ointment to the sores,
and using the Cuticura Soap for wash
ing. In a very short time I began to
notice Improvement, and continued to
use the Cuticura Remedies until I was
well again, and have not had a re
currence of the trouble since, which is
over twenty years. I have recom
mended Cuticura Remedies to others
ever since, and have great faith in
them as remedies for skin diseases.”
