The Human Heart.
Thu heart of man Is a book-nay, It
lit mi encyclopedia of everything lliut
lias ever come within thu range of Its
personal experience. It preserves an
eternal record of all the stories In
which It bus played a part. It Is
Ntniugu what nail things may bo hid
den In Its depth without giving any
token of their existence. Thu heart
limy bo gay and may bend thu Hindu
mantling to tho face, but all thu while
you hid only tho topmost stratum. If
thu graves beneath were to glvu up
their deail thu smiles would hcciii
strangely out of place. It Is Just lll.u
this great earth of ours that renews It
fcclf year after year and has not on Its
Hiirfnco any token to tell what Is thu
simple truth that It Iiiih given grave
to '.'(H) generations of human beings, -Farrell.

WHO OWNS THE AIR?
Anelent Legal Maxim Says Man Owne
Land "Up to the Sky."
It Is sllll n moot point whether or
not thu flying of airships over private
properly mny be opposed by duo proc
ess of law,
In Knglnnd (hero Is nn nnclrtit max
im embodied lu thu Kngllsli common
law which says, "lio who owns the
land owns It up to skies." This venera
ble rule, a legnl authority points out,
Is ns good today ns ever It was and Is
full of menacing significance to the
airship builder.
Thu effect of lids rule Is (o glvu (hu
owner of laud thu exclusive right to
the freu enjoyment of the air over and
alsivo tho four comers of his holding,
nnd any Interference with that enjoy'
ment, however apparently slight and
harmless, constitutes a trespass, for
which nn action mny bo brought.
Applications for Injunctions against
airship owners and actions for trespass
by aggrieved landowners are not un
likely proceedings In tho near future.

tried to bcnellt, or, at least, you were

"That Is ho," snld tho stranger.
"Then our society bus evidently not

Son of God, the Savior of the world
Ambition s zeal
He did not feci
Till slavery's wnr flag wns unfurled
Strong nnd fearless,
Never tearless,
Willie ins tioutlicrit friends toes Ins

Unbounded power,
Was his dower
Ne'er abused except on mercy's side
Kind nnd cheerful
Never fcnrftil
Of the finnl triumph of his cnuse;
A nnvy brave,
Crowned cv'ry wnvc
Men in arms who won the world'

Priceless treasure,
Is the measure
Of the nation's estimate of thee;
Great pcace-innkcr;
Shackle breaker
Of the tunny millions who went free
History's pages
Through the ages
With the theme of Lincoln's fame

And the story

OUR
BARGAIN COUNTER
We have rt muiibcr of articles on hand which we arc
desirous of disposing of. They were purchased by the
former management to be given out as premiums on
subscriptions, but as the solicitors invariably prefer
cash commission instead of premiums, they arc now
placed on sale at a bargain.
We have a limited number of shears that retail
in any store at not less than $1.00 per pair. They are
guaranteed for five years, and have a thumb screw on
the back which prevents them from becoming loose.
Drop in and examine a pair. Bargain price,
Per pair .... 50c
A sinAll number of nickel silver spoons, guaran
teed to be composed of the same metal throughout,
easily worth $1.25 anywhere. Bargain price,
Per set 75c
Two gold jewel cases, $3.50 value, bargain sale
Each .... $2.00
A handsome set of silver knives and forks, value
?37S bargain price, - - - $2.50
A $2.00 carving set goes at this sale for $1.25
A beautiful gilt alarm clock worth 2.00, bargain
price ..... $1.25
Gilt mantel clock worth $3.25, can be had for $3.
A very fine 26-piece set of Rogers' silverware,
worth from $10 to $12, will be placed on sale at $6.25
All of these are genuine bargains, and outside of
the shears and spoons weNhave only one set of each
variety, so if you arc looking for anything in this line
it would be wise to take advantage of this opportunity.
A careful inspection of each article is invited. When
these arc disposed of no more shall be ordered, as the
jewelry business is not in our line.
