A FROWN AND A SMILE.
Once upou a time, so. the story goes
a man had a vicious thought in bib
heart, and It showed in his face. HIb
face was dark with hatred and a low
desire.
Other men looked on the forbidding
face and passed on. Some there were
who answered to the frown and passed
It on to others. And the way was
weary and dark for some that day.
On the same day .a little child, wak
ing from a pleasant dream, looked up
Into Its mother's face and Biniled. On
the mother's face came an answering
smile.
The smile on the mother's face was
of the kind that would not come off.
And when she said goodby to the
father of the child on the morning of
that day the smile passed on to the
father s face. And the man wore the
smile to his work. Like a lighted
candle Inside a vase, it lightened the
face of the mail.
On the same day ia the heart of a
man lay a desperate deed. He saw
the father's shining face. The man
wavered 'twlxt the good and evil,
thought nnd was saved from his des
peration. Another, weary of the strug
gle and on the verge of falling, looked
at the illumined face, and hope grew
again in his soul.
A child crying in the streets looked
up through Its tears to tho radiant face
of the mail and ceased to weep. "
& young girl, friendless nnd torn by
a pitiful strife between degradation
and starvation, looked on the face of
the strong man with the smiling face
and somehow found in her Inmost soul
the strength to resist temptation and
despair.
And each of these the desperate
ninn, the weary soul, the crying child,
the despairing girl knew somehow
the power of that smile.
Others, more prosperous, less tempt
ed, saw the father's smile nnd passed
It on, aud on that day men and wo
men and children were saved from
sadness and from the snare of the
tempter.
So the story runs.
And It is told that on that day the
little child who In the morning smiled
into the mother's face met pain and
sorrow, and the smile was replaced
with many tears. And the light on
the mother's face faded Into fear. And
the father had many cares that day.
But the smile traveled on.1
The frown, having done its worst,
died out. ,
The smile traveled on.

An Unprofitable Monopoly.
During the past two years the oper
ating costs of the municipal electric
light plant of Verndale, Minn., ex
teeded the receipts ry"53 per cent. If
Interest and depreciation were added
the excess would be 50 per cent. The
plant has ft monopoly of the lighting
business.

will dwell on the subject of futme
punishment Miesa liot Sundays.
If we could but had the ground the

H-ipes Unfounded.
All that liitiiih-lpal ownership can
hope to save a community In a mone
tary sense are the "profits" which are
thought to be making the stockholders
of prrvlce corporations rich. It Is a
matter of common knowledge that
thee profits are lielng and have been
reduced to slender margins and with
many companies wiped out altogether.
The Inability of municipal plants to
buy supplies, materials, brains or labor
as cheaply as private Industries mora
than overcomes this margin, H. J.

THE DOG DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.
The woman's name was Maggie
Ryan.
Sullen eyed and defiant, she swept
Into the police court. Her hair was
awry and her clothes were rumpled
from a night spent at the police sta
tion. You see, they don't provide very
good toilet requisites at the police sta
tion. A little brown spaniel trotted at tho
woman's heels.
Magglp Ryau had slept or tried to
sleep on the hard, bare confines of the
matron's room. Usually dogs real, for
sure dogs are not admitted to the sta
tion, but something In the woman's
wistful face caused the matron to let
this little dog In. He curled up con
tentedly at the foot of the hard cot
where the woman lay. And when she
got up In the night and paced the room
he walked at her side.
In the morning the woman divided
her rough breakfast with the spaniel,
lie was a hungry little dog.
With reckless bravado and scorning
.the audience of curious loafers Mag
gie Ryan answered the Judge's ques
tions. The dog stayed close. Maggie
had been arrested on the chnrge of dis
orderly.' "D. aud D." drunk and disorderly.
Her eyes were hard and cynical. Her
mouth was set In a severe, straight
line. Traces of a one time beauty lin
gered. Dabs of face powder showed
too thick In some spots. The toilet
facilities at the Btation, we have al
ready explained, are not good.
The spaniel crouched close to the wo
man's skirts.
"I will give you until tonight to
leave town," said the judge, The judge
was kind hearted, aud he had looked
often at the little spaniel. The wo
man made a mocking bow, taking in
the spectators at court.
She started toward the door. From
there she would probably "hit the
rails" out of town, out somewhere,
anywhere out of town. ,
The little dog started too. Briskly
he sprang to her side. Once he jumped
up aud licked her hand.
For the first time that day the wo
man's Up quivered. Her eyes softened.
They were almost beautiful eyes
when there were tears In them.
The woman's head drooped for an
Instant, and with one hand she furtive
ly gave the dog's head a rough caress.
The station door swung behind them,
and they started down the street. The
little dog capered and then trotted
proudly along at the woman's side. As
he lifted his brown eyes there was In
them a wonderful, worshipful look of
love and devotion.
Because ho was only a dog.
He loved this woman, his mistress
a mistress from whom other women
drew aside their skirts in disdain.
He was only a dog, aud he didn't un
jerstand. How should he know the mstoin of
humans who punish the woman slnMi
and let the mau go free?
Diarrhoea lured.
THEY KILLED THE GIRL.
Kathleen Sheehur1, aged twenty
three, of New York city killed hersell
because her mates mimicked liei
speech.
Kathleen was a slip of a lass whe
came from the old- sod recently and
brought her mellifluous tongue wltt
her. She broadened "meat" intc
"mate" and rolled her "r's" with a
rich bur. Only ignorance would havf
failed to catch and admire the delight
ful accent. .
The girl had a tender heart, the mo
bile temperament of her people and
was timid and sensitive.
She first found employment at a
dressmaker's. She chanced to say
something about "woruck." The girls
tittered, and one of them said, "You
mean 'woyck,' don't you?" When
Kathleen understood she was having
fun poked nt her she took it much tc
heart and left the place.
She engaged herself at a department
store. Laughter greeted her utter
ances. The teasing wounded her spir
it. She worked hard to learn the cor
rect pronunciation of English, but net
labor was mostly in vain. She could
not easily twist her Limerick tongue.
Kathleen went to another shop only
to endure similar torment. She brood
ed. Her once smiling face grew sad.
One day she told her relatives she had
insured her life.
"WhyV' .thcy asked.
"I might die," she said, with a far
away look. "The money would be foi
you."
The last Sunday the poor lass dressed
herself in her best clothes and went to
a park. Ilere she stayed all day and
all that night. She was debating the
old, old query, "TO BE OR NOT TO
BE?" What torture to the distraught
brain and tender, sensitive soul! She
was passing through her Gethsemane,
poor child!
Monday morning at dawn she went
to a clump of bushes and swallowed
carbolic acid. A policeman found her
writhing on the ground. In the am
bulance on the way to the hospital she
gasped:
"They'll niver make fun nv me
again." Then she died.
No, no, lassie; they'll never make
fun of you again. And if they only
know how they had hounded your
poor HtHe body into the grave most
bitterly sorry would they be.
YOU SEE, THERE'S MORE THAN
ONE WAY TO KPLL A IOOR GIRL.
And your lisping brogue, Kathleen,
will not trouble you in the kinder
land where you have gone. They
speak neither English nor dialects
there. There is only one language in
heaven a language used too little on
the earth.
It Is the language of tenderness and
love.
"My father hag for yenrg been trou
bled with diarrhoea, and tried every
means possible to effect a cure, with
out avail," writes John H. Zirkle of
Philippi. V. Va. "He saw Chamber
lain's Colic, Choi ra and Diarrhoea
Remedy advertised in the Philippi
Republican and decided to try it.
Hie result is one bottle cured him and
he lias not suffered with the disease
for eighteen ruontha. Before taking
(this remedy he wa a corptsnt suffer

years old can do as rrttich work as a

WE DON'T KNOW MUCH.
It behooves the scientist to sing low
these days. Heretofore he has been
rather too dogmatic. If, for instance
Radium may be. changed Into he! ion
then some of the "well settled princi
ples of science" are knocked into
smithereens. The discovery of radium
itself was a hard blow.
Truth is a powerful wedge. It splits
theory logs smack open. The prating
of the sure enough who is certain of
his conclusions is often made to sound
like the puerile prattling of a child
talking in the dark. .
A learned professor Haeckel in his
book "Riddle of the Universe" takes
several kinds of kluks out of the
boastful know-all.
He says we don't' know much.
And comes mighty near proving it.
He says we play at putting up big
things high buildings, great bridges,
huge engines nnd such. But he says
we do not know even a little bit about
how to prevent murder, suicide, theft
and poverty.
He hits us hard there.
We boast of our civilization and
point to Us indices railroads, ma
chines, news transmitters, etc.
Why, Diogenes made fun of that
sort of "progress" 2,000 years ago.
lie got out his tub and rolled it through
the streets of Athens and said, "That
Is all there Is to your boasted prog
ress" simply making the wheels go
round.
Haeckel says we don't know much
about a man. We don't know where
he got either his mind or his body. We
don't know very much about how be
can best use either body or mind.
We don't know very much about the
proper relation of meu to government
Our political economy stops short of
the problem of distribution.
Haeckel says we know scarcely any
thing about the prevention of crime.
Sin nnd suffering are problems as se
rious as In David's time.
He tells us it is the fault of our
educational system that we do not
know more. lie says our education
skips the really important things.
Maybe.
Anyway, we don't know much.
OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE.
So you are twenty-one!
And you stand up clear eyed to look
the world In the face a man.
Did you ever think, son, how much it
cost to make a man of you? It cost a
lot of money, but that isn't all.
You have cost father a lot of hard
knocks and short dinners and gray
streaks In his hair. And your mother
boy, you will never know. You have
cost her anxious days and nights, and
wrinkles In the dear face, nnd heart
aches. Sure, It has been expensive to grow
you. But '
If you are what we think you are,
you nre worth nil you cost us, and
more.

Granulated Sore Eyes Cured.
"For twenty years I suffered from a
had case of granulated sore eyes, says
Martin Bofd, of Henrietta, Ky. "In
February, 1903, a gentleman asked me
to try Chamberlain's Salve. I bought
one box and osed about two-thirds of
it and my eyes liavo not given me any
trouble since." This salve is for sale

Sonny, if you were to do anything low

You are a man now.
Some time you must step in youi
father's shoes. Don't call him "old
man." He doesn't like to know you

not as young as he used to be. You
see, he has been working pretty hard
for twenty-one years to help you up
And your mother begins already tr

the world, but he expects you to dc
better. And so do you expect you will
do better. He has given you a bettel
chance than he had. You begin nl
most where he leaves off. All the
same, young man, if you do even as
well as your sire and keep your soul
clean you will have done pretty well.
Don't flinch, boy.
The world will try you out. It will
strain every fiber that is In you. But
you are made of good stuff. Hold to
