Says.
"I wouldn't take five hundred dol

a well-known farmer of Slonewull,
tleorgln, u short time ago.
"For forty-live year I suffered al
most every day," he continued, "and
was so crippled up with rheumatism
that I had to hobble around on
crutches. My knees were so stiff I
ould hardly bend them and often I
kave heen so weak that I have had to
take to my bed for weeks at u time.
More than hull' the time I couldn't do
any work. I had Indigestion and stom
lidi trouble, too, and my hack hurt so
had that I couldn't lay ou my left side
at all. I tried every medicine I saw
advertised and many prescriptions te
ades, hut kept getting worse.
"My brother living in Atlanta told
rue what Tunlac had done for him and
begged me to try It. Well, sir, I have

ADAM SPRUNG FIRST JOKE
Asked Eve if She Expected an Ich
thyosaurus, When She Objected
to Spider on Rose.
We believe that in the Oarden of
Kden, Adam gave live a rose In ex
change for n kiss. And she shuddered
nnd suld, "Ugh! There's a spider on
the rosel" and he answered, "Well,
what do jou expect for one stingy lit
tle kls.s un Ichthyosaurus?"
We believe that to he the oldest Joke
in the world older than the goat, the
nioilier-ln law, or any that ure sui-post-d
to be Included In the Original
Seven. In varying forms one finds It
in the Talmud, In I'hiutus, in Ar-iop,
(n Ihibeluis, In Joe Miller, In all the
almanacs and comic papers.
When we were a boy, it whs told In
minstrel' show, thus: A man buys :
Miit of clothes at u second-hand store,
lie comes back and complains that the
coat Is Inhabited by unpleasant .nsects.
And the dealei says, "Well, what do
you expect for $ humming birds?'
Vaudeville knows It In this form:
Tenant "Look here, you'll have to
make some repairs In this house. The
cellar Is full of water" Landlord
"Well, what do you expect for $15 n
month champagne?'
And Just last week we ran across
ur old friend again In a weekly comic
paper. This time a passenger on a
street car calls down the conductor for
not calling the names of the streets
distinctly. And the conductor replies,
"Well, what do you expect for $14 a
week a tenor solo?"
Lastly a few days ngo, we ran a
version of the old thing In this column.
We cut Its hair, trimmed Its whiskers.
and fitted it with n new suit, but we j
could not disguise It completely. When
you run across It In any. of Its cos- j
tumes, send us a clipping, will you? '

man has clothed It with personality,
glorifying what would otherwise be
mere geographical locality, and the
spirits of humans of oil later times are
drawn to It as the dividing point be
tween paganism and Christianity to
the English-speaking world.
But If we of today were to walk
upon the historic highway In the far
West, called El Camlno Heal, we could
not dreatn ourselves back Into the day
when the brown-robed Franciscans
went forth nnd back upon It, treading
the tender grass of winter or raising
the golden dust-clouds of summer, be
cause that way Is hard-paved today,
and the pilgrim's dream would be sad
ly broken by the dodging of the auto
mobiles which have claimed the way
ns a personal possession, writes Neeta
Marquis In the Los Angeles Times.
Cut to the nutomobilist who has a
mind for the past as well as nu eye for
the present, there Is n wealth of charm
to be found on the road marked by
the mile-post be'. Is, particularly in
traveling from Los Angeles to San
Diego, at the road's very beginning.
It was cool nnd dellclously foggy
when we left Los Angeles, soon after
eight o'clock, and one of the first sur
prises, when we reached the real coun
try, was to find the nlr sweet with
the fragrance of orange blossoms and
roses. I had fancied the orange trees
not yet In flower, and the roses very
largely gone for a while, but acres of
both were there to confound me. Dahl
ias almost as big as cabbages
nodded their gorgeous crimson and
magenta heads from country door
yards, and In a bowerllke river bed
we saw a company of tourists out of
their machines gathering green castor
beans, perhaps under the impression
that they were horse chestnuts.
In the open stretches, the blue dis
tance of fog were artistically set off
by golden hedges of wild mustard and
sunflowers. At Intervals all along the
road the rose racks set up by an en
terprising public spirit were often full
of bloom, mostly with the warm-scented
"Ragged Itobins," of velvety crim
son. We even met a country girl driv
ing, who, having the prettiest of pink
faces and being dressed in pink, look
ed like a Duchesse rose herself.
To San Juan Capistrano.
We crossed the great San Joaquin
ranch through miles of small, golden
bean stalks, which shaded Into dis
tances of amber against the blue-veiled
hills. It looked as If It had taken as
many Mexicans as are enlisted with
Villa to rake those stacks Into such
geometrically spaced order.
In the hill country beyond, the rich
brown of tarweed, whose sweet pun
gency filled the air with healing, whole
some balm, covered all the landscape,
and exquisitely subtle colors were
brought out under the cloud-mottled
sky. Ever and again the black-green
of eucalyptus clumps made picture
like effects against the tawny fields.
Faith, this was a long road, and less
varied, when the padres trod It In the
olden time I
It was down a canyon dotted with
great sycamores that we finally came
upon the artist-haunted ruins of Mis
sion San Juan Capistrano.
This spot Is crassly modern com
pared with really ancient things, yet
It has Its own atmosphere of relative
antiquity. I never have gazed on the
pyramids or the Sphinx. St. Teter's
at Home, Notre Dame and St. Mar
tin's at Canterbury are, so far, only
names nnd pictures to me. Even Ply
mouth Hock Is very remote In personal
association as well as distance. But
rny latent reverence for the finger
marks of time and the monuments to
human Ideals came up at sight of these
singularly quaint and beautiful re
mains of a period rich In romance
and devout dreams on this golden
western slope.
Beauties of the Ruins.
Pomegranate trees and dusty red
geraniums grew In front of the ruined
walls rising n-ralnt the pale blue of
n noonday sky Where the whitewash
wns gone, the ruins were a rich golden
Mission.
brown In tone. The front of the build
ing wns disappointing at first glimpse.
The. yard was bare and bleak looking,
the monument raised to Junipero
Serra, and a luxuriant green pepper
tree being the only outstanding re
liefs. Uut It was when we wandered
ungulded through the long arcades on
the Inner court, penetrating Into musty
rooms within the three-foot walls and
swinging the massive wooden doors to
behind us. treading upon the worn old
flagging curved to fit the feet of priest
and neophyte of long ngo, that the
real atmosphere of the place comes
over us.
I tried to forget the hnlf-dozen au
tomobiles standing outside on the
road, and the groups of tourist-folk,
who, curious-eyed, were making per
functory pilgrimage there nt that same
hour, and Instead of taking a cursory
glance and motoring on again, I asked
permission for our small party to eat
our lunch in the long shady arcade
overlooking the Inner court, where the
kindly green of Ivy was clinging to
the bared bricks of the arches.
It was not hard to rebuild in mem
ory those broken arches encircling the
patio, even across there where a small
laundry was dangling In pathetic In
congruity, nnd Imagine the place
rich with green growing things lus
cious figa and grapes and oranges, and
other transplantlngs from Catalonia,
Castile nnd Old Mexico. Then, upon
Just such a quiet, peaceful noonday
ns this, Padre Anselmo and Padre
Miguel might have been Pitting on this
selfsame old bench, looking across the
luxuriant greenness to where the
brown arches merged Into the summer
brown of that selfsame hill beyond,
ngalnst the same soft blue sky. The
hill nnd the sky remain unchanged
now, but the nrches are crumbling and
the padres are dust.
We bade farewell to San Juan Capi
strano nnd took the curving road
ngaln. A great brown hill sloped down
to meet nn unbelievable blue ocean,
and from here on the sea was scarce
ly once out of sight.
"Truly," I said, drinking deep of
that beauty of color and contour, "this
Is a picture country, If there ever was
one I"
Those stretches- along the water,
down close to the sand where the Ice
plant grew, were a delight. After long
miles marked off by the picturesque
bells, we passed San Onofre canyon
and Snn Onofre creek opening Into the
sea, the canyon widening to hold as
magnificent a grove of sycamores us
there Is In southern California.
We climbed the scarred and pictur
esque heights where the Torrey pines
crouch In the wind like giant bodies
with craven spirits. From this com
manding vantage point we looked
across the valley away from the sea.
where colors of vegetation and colors
of soli mingled In singularly rich va
riety. And at last we saw the city of our
destination shining ahead In the after
noon light, a white city, like Cadiz,
overlooking the sea.
Mint and Rue.
In the eleventh chapter of St Luke,
verse 42 It states: "Woe unto you,
Pharisees I 'for ye tithe mint and rue,
and all manner of herbs. Mint is
mentioned no other place In the Bible.
In this day and age, or nt least In this
country, both mint and rue have run
wild until In some places they are a
menace to better plants. Both seek
only damp soils yet both are quite re
sistant to drought as the root system
still lives long after tops nre de
stroyed nnd will put forth again and
again. It Is evident thnt In olden
times these plants were of great eco
nomic Importance In both culinary nnd
medicinal departments. Today, while
mint Is widely used, largely In manu
fncture of perfumes, the use of rue
has practically ceased.
No Longer Quiet
Bill Do you remember my brother?
Gill Oh, yes, very well.
"Remember how quiet he used to be

"Yes, Indeed."
"Well, look at him now.
"What's the matter with him now?"

LESSON FOR OCTOBER 14.
RETURNING FROM CAPTIVITY.
LESSON TEXT Ezra 1.
GOLDEN TEXT The Lord hath done
great thlnirs for us; whereof we are glad.
l'aalrns 10:3.
Israel went Into captivity because of
her sins. The time of her disciplinary
process was about to end, ns Its pur
pose was now accomplished: namely,
the cure of Israel's idolatry. Ever
since the Babylonian captivity the He
brew people have been worshipers of
the one Cod. Monotheism has stood
forth ns a vital characteristic. The
main reason for the Jews' maintenance
of racial Identity In spite of their na
tional dislocation and the breaking up
of their social ties. Is the nnlty of their
faith, around the one God. '
I. The Proclamation of Cyrus (vv.
1-4).
(1) The Time of (v. 1). The first
year of Cyrus; that Is the first year
after his conquest of Babylol.
(2) How It Was Brought About (v.
1). The Lord stirred up his spirit
The Lord often uses very unlikely
agents In the accomplishment of his
purposes. There Is nothing too hard
for him. He can readily use a heathen
king to accomplish his purpose. He
can find a way of approach to any
heart. Likely Daniel was the agent
used to bring the maxter to the king's
attention. Daniel vas still the influ
ential prime lulnUter of Babylon.
From his study of the prophecies of
Jeremiah (Jer. 25:12; Isa. 43:1; com
pare Daniel 0:2), he knew that the
time wns near for the return of the
people to their own land, so he likely
brought the matter to the attention of
the king and persuaded him to thus
favor his people.
(3) Its Contents (vv. 2-4).
(a) A confession of the truo God
(vv. 2. 3). .
He acknowledges, him to be the God
of heaven, the Most High, the Supreme
Gnd, a God of goodness. He declared,
"He has given me all the kingdoms of
the earth," and that God had with au
thority laid upon him the charge of
buMdlng him a house at Jerusalem.
(b) A Generous Permission to Israel
(v. 3). All who desired to go up to
Jerusalem and build the Lord's house
were permitted to go. He even com
manded the blessing of the Lord to be
upon them.
(c) A Positive Co-Operatlon (v. 4).
Xone were obliged to go up, but a pos
itive obligation was laid upon those
who did not go up. to render assistance
to those who did. They were to nld
In the building of the house of God by
giving money, beasts and goods. It
wns more than a free-will offering, an
obligation In addition thereto. The ob
ligation was even wider than the peo
ple of Israel. The heather were asked
to render aid.
II. Response to the Proclamation of
Cyrus (vv. 5, 6).
(1) By Israel (v. B). Strange to sny
the 'decree of Cyrus wns not met with
great enthusiasm. Only a small num
ber, chiefly from Jndah and Benjamin,
returned (v. 5). For most of them It
meant glvkig up business Interests, for
they had settled down to the regular
callings of life. Besides the sacri
fice of business interests It involved
great risks as to the future. The en
tire company. Including servants, wos
nhout fifty thousand (2:Gl). Of this
company we note the following divi
sions; first, chiefs of the fathers of
Judah and Benjamin, thnt Is magis
trates; second, priests and Levites,
lenders In religion; third, skillful ar
tificers, head workmen.
(2) By Their Neighbors (v. 6). This
response was apparently more hearty
than thnt of the Jews themselves.
Their neighbors gave freely of gold, sil
ver, beasts and goods. God had nol
only graciously disposed the heart of
Cyrus toward his people, but they
found peculiar favor from their neigh
bors, so that their wants were abund
antly supplied.
III. Restoration of the Sacred Ves
sels (vv. 7-11). Tbjse vessels had been
carried uwny to Babylon many years
before. Little did Nebuchadnezzar re
alize thot he would put Into safe keep
ing the vessels which would be needed
nt this time. They were carefully num
bered and turned over to the proper
officers. Except for their desecration
In Belshnzzar's feast, they were none
the worst for having been carried away.
These were brought up to Jerusalem
from Babylon.

The schoolgirl's coat Is on Important

now, although the outfitting of the

Breakfast Coats
And now a new luster Is to be added
to the wardrobe of women, for the
"breakfast coat" has made Its debut.
The holidays are always preceded by
pretty, gay conceits In breakfast Jack
ets and this year the breokfast coat
will present another allurement for
the Christmas shopper. It Is an en
ticing garment made of light colored
taffeta; a more or less straight coat,
open down the front nnd reaching al
most to the bottom of the petticoat
The breakfast coat is an unpreten
tious but very pretty affair, easy to
make and simply trimmed. Ruffles nnd
ruchlngs of silk, like the coat take
the placa of lace for finishing collar
and sleeves. Narrow girdles are also
made of the silk. By keeping to sim
plicity In trimming and In design this
new claimant for favor may be mnde

railed a coat.
