artistic arrangement of old-fashioned

was held with a tiny spray of orange
blossoms, the ensemble of tulle and
silver making a cloud-like and ethereal
effect.

and sister of the bride, and her uncle
and aunt. Mr. and Mrs. Julius C. Lang,

accented social entertainments, and
also limited the wedding to families.

take a
month's trip through California, and
upon their return, the end of this
month, will visit the Lang family until
they select their own home.

to about 30 Campfire Girif. on Tuesday
afternoon by Mrs. W. J. Hawkins, at
the residence of Mrs. A. F. Flegel. The

The Golden Gnome.
f EORCTE'S father was a truck gar
VI dener near a big city. Every day
after school the boy had to help pre
uare the vegetables for market and fill
the big wagon with barrels of potatoes
and crates of eggs. Then on Satur
day at dawn he and his father were up
to a breaKrast Dy lampngni ana a
long drive into town.
One April night when George went
to bed he decided to wake very early
and run away to the city. As he lay
with the moonlight making the room
bright as day he planned out his fu
ture. "I will make money when I get
in town." he said. "Money is all that
makes life worth living. If I had
enough money I would be perfectly
happy and care for nothing else in the
world."
Then he noticed that his room looked
strange. In the moonlight it had
seemed to be silvry wh'ite. but now
it appeared as if filled with a golden
mist that grew thicker and thicker.
Then this mist took on a solid shape
and he could see it was the figure of
a small, crooked man all of gold. His
skin, his hair, his clothing all were
of shining metal.
"I am the Golden Gnome, boy," said
"the little man; "I was floating by your
window and heard your remark. Do
for me a favor and you shall receive
the gift of the golden touch. Bring
me the tiny baby slipper that your
mother treasures so the one that be
longed to your little sister who died
and I will give you this reward. It
will mean that all you touch will turn
to gold."
George was amazed. He knew his
mother valued this tiny baby slipper

Laclede. Idaho. " My trouble began
on my face, neck and head with email red
pimples. They told me it was eczema. It
Itched terribly throughout
the day and prevented me
from sleeping at night. It
burned terribly when I
scratched it. My hair fell
out and was very thin and
lifeless.
' I took treatments but
with no good results. I read
about Cuticura Soap and
Ointment and thought I would try them.
So I bought a box of Cuticura Soap and
Ointment and began to use them imme
diately. After using them two weeks I was
relieved from the Itching and a month later
I was entirely freed from the eczema.

more than all the wealth of the world,
but what matter? If the gnome wanted
it and he could get all the gold he
wished in return, why, he would do it.
So he sneaked down and soon re
turned with the baby shoe, which he
placed in the gnome's hands.
"I have all the gold I wish," grunted
the gnome. "What I desired was
something treasured by a human heart.
You have given me what your mother
holds dearest in the world. In return
everything your right hand touches
shall turn to gold," and the Golden
Gnome floated away out of the window
in his shimmering mist of yellow.
George sprang up and grabbed a
chair. It grew heavy, hard and gold
en in his hands. So with his left hand
he put on his clothing. Then he ran
down to the kitchen. Without thinking
he grabbed hold of the door with his
right hand, and it swung back a door
of shining yellow metal.
"Gracious," cried George, "this Is
fine, but I must be careful how I act
my right hand will get me in trouble."
So with his left hand he fed the stock,
then his mother called him to break
fast So hungry was he that he took
his bread in his right hand and bit
into a lump of gold.
Once again he -forgot and took his
cup up with hid right hand and it be
came a cup of gold, and the coffe
hard metal. He took his handkerchief
out of his pocket it dropped heavily
to the earth of gold. So did his knife
and even the egg tie tried to eat.
Things began to look unpleasant.
With the gold he bought a fine home,
great stables and rich clothing, but
life was a burden for fear of using his
right hand. At night at supper his
mother tripped and he threw out his
right hand to catch her she turned
at once into a statue of gold in his
arms. Then the boy realized the gift
he had craved was a curse. He ran to
his room and threw himself sobbing on
the bed.i His father came in and gath
ered the boy into his arms, but as he
did so he touched George s right hand
and he also became a statue of cold,
yellow metal.
In an agony of grief George cried
aloud for the gnome to come and take
the fatal gift away. He heard a knock
ing at his door and opened his eyes
to find it morning and the sunshine
making a golden light in his room. A
happy boy it was that sprang up to
dress and eat a hearty breakfast with
both hands and a merry, contented lad
it was that went singing about the
farm work. For in his dream he had
learned that money can be a curse as
well as a blessing, and that a happy
heart Is better than the gift of a golden
gnome.

undesirable trait or habit in ourselves.

with much joy, do we? And this is not,
I think, because of any moral coward

not win out. but because of a sneak

we wish to overcome, irrespective oi
the fact that in cool-headed moments
we know the trait we wish to root out
is undesirable, that it brings sorrow
or suffering or ill results of some kind
in its train, there is a secret regard for
it. a belief perhaps in its power to give
pleasure, a desire to still possess It.
There is a traitor right in the camp
of the one who must fight. This makes
victory doubly difficult.
But perhaps there is a way of look

the enemy. We may get such an out
look that this view no longer has any
hold over us.
There was In very, very old days
belief that the soul and courage of an
antagonist slain went into the slayer.
This may account for the fights some
of the old heroes made. They were
righting not merely to win the Imme

for a reward more precious than the
mere conquest of the foe.
These old stories are very apt to
have a double meaning. And I think
this has' one that will put a joy into
a moral fight, a motive for it, that will
give keen pleasure all the while the
warfare rages. For the gain to be se
cured is more to be desired than Is the

retaining hold of the habit or vice we
feel we must fight against- And with
such a viewpoint of the matter, such
a motive, we' enter upon the fight with
joy and with no secret longing to hold
back.

WHEN YOU WASH YOUR
HAIR DON'T USE SOAP
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless.. It's
very cheap, and beats soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store, and a
few ounces will last the whole fam
ily for months.
Simply moisten the hair with wa
ter and rub it in, about a teaspoon
ful is all that is required. It makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
dle. Besides, it loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff.

FINANCIAL DEPRESSION
-CAUSES BUSINESS SACRIFICE
I need $40,000 and need it quick.
Stockholders whose stock is now due
to retire want their money. Under
ordinary conditions, it would be easy
to finance this through the regular
channels, but under present condi
tions I have been unable to do this.
There is only one thing left to do
and that is to sacrifice the stock un
til enough pianos have been sold to
bring in the money.
For feeveral years I have worked
hard to build up good will and busi
ness friendship. This cannot be
bought for money and this business
standing I am going to keep. The
fact that I will sell during the next
few days many splendid pianos at
much less than their actual value will
not weaken my business standing. But
those who secure a piano at this time,
while I am raising this money will
enjoy a most unusual saving.
This is not an ordinary bargain
sale. This is a life-and-death strug
gle and actual cash is the llrst con
sideration. While it seems a pity to lose the
legitimate profit which is due any
worthy business transaction, the fact
that it will increase the good will
and friendship which my business en
joys makes the deal profitable in fu
ture standing if not in immediate re
muneration. Even though I will not make a
cent on these sales, and actually lose
money on many transactions during
the time it takes me to raise $40,000,
it will enable me to maintain my busi
ness through this present crisis.
Whether you intend to buy or not,
do not miss this opportunity. Use it
