you fi!
vnu'll bo worried and fretted nnd
1 kept In a stow,
Par meddlesome tongues must liuvo
And people will talk.
H quiet and modest, you'll hnvo It
presumed
That your humble position Is only
assumed.
rour'o u wolf In sheep's clothing,
or else your a fool,
But don't got oxcltod, keep perfect
ly cool
For people will talk.
And then, If you show tho lenst
boldness of heart,
Or a slight Inclination to tnko your
own port.
Thoy will cnll you an upstart, con
ceited nnd vain;
Cut keep straight ahead, don't Btop
to explain
For peoplo will talk.
If thrcadbnro your drcBS, and old
fashioned your hat,
Someono will Buroly take notice of
that,
And hint rather strongly you can't
pny your way;
Dut don't got oxcltod, whatovor they
say '
For peoplo will talk.
If your dress Is In fashion, don't
think to escnpo,
For they crltlclso thon In n different
slinpo;
You're nhend of your means, or
your tnllor's unpnld;
Dut mind your own business, thoro's
naught to ho mndo
For people will talk.
Now, tho bcBt way to do Is to do as
you please,
For your mind, If you hnvo one,
will thon bo nt easo;
Of course, yon will moot with nil
sorts of abuso,
But don't think to stop them It's
tot any uso
For peoplo will talk.

tht "troublo man" Is a woman. "Ho"

A vory tired woman realized that
aim was about to die. The spring

was t"'o houso to clean, tho children's
clothes wcro In need of repair, and
so many other duties demanded her
attention t'n she felt It would bo

NKAlt RELATIONS.
Near relations is folks that you
ought to bo fond of, and nln'r.
Thoro nro two kinds of Near Iso
lations, your mamma'a Near Rela
tions and your pnpa'B Near Relations,
and when you aro very, very good,
ana you don't muss your dress, nor
lose your hair ribbon, nnd your teach
er gives you a good report, then you
nro like your tnnmnin'a 'n tinin.
tlons. Hut when you are naughty
and tear your dress, and behave llko
the old Scratch, then you nro llko
your papa's Near Relations. i
I know this Is truo because my
mamma, says so. ,
Thoro are more Near Relations in
tho world than anything; else ex
cept fleas, which are too numorous
to mention; also they aro llko fleas
becauso when you get them in Uio
house It Is hard to get rid of them, i
I do not know much nbout tho
iinuits of Near Relations except that
they spend tholr tlmo In visiting, nnd
i t,.,.1B l'c0l,e whnt thoy ought to
uo. when my mamma's Near Rola
t ons come to our houso they sav that'
It Is a Bhamo for him to Btnoko In
tho parlor, and drink boor with his
dinner, which wilt lend him to a
drunknrd's grave, and thoy wonder
whoro he goes when ho goes down
town nt night. And my fathor says
Damn.
When my fnthcr'B Near Rolntlons
como to, our houso thoy say that my
mother dresses too flno nnd stylish,
nnd that sho should stay nr homo
nnd cook dinner Instead of playing
bridge, nnd Mint sho should rnlsa hor
chlldren bettor. My mother Is a lady
nnd Bhe does not say Damn. She I
slants uio uoor when Bho loaves tho
room whoro my pnpa's Near Relations
arc.
Mv mother's Nonr Pnlntlnno nlwnvo
call hor "Poor Mary."
And mv fathnr'n N'nnr Dnlntlnna
alwnyB call him "Boor John."
i uo not Know why this Is so un
less lr is tho way Near Relations nro
built.
When peoplo nro your near Rela
tions thoy toll you tho things you do
not want to hoar, but a stranger
speaks to you pollto and ngrecablo.
When your Nenr Relations nro
rich, or havo been gonornls In tho
war, or something groat, you brag
about them, nnd call thorn Ancestors,
But when thoy nro poor nnd hnvo a
llttlo storo on tho bnck street, you
do not mention them nt nil.
Somotlmes a Nenr Relation gives
you a nickel to buy enndy with, but
most tlmeB thoy say, "My, how for
waid children nro now! Thoy didn't
bohnvo thnt way In my days!"
That Is all I know nt present about
Near Rolntlons. Dorothy Dlx.
THK PUIIR FOOD IjAUISIj.
Y ACTION of tho Department of
Agriculture nn offort Is bolng
mndo to correct nn erroneous
Impression many consumers got from
observing tho pure food labols on
manufactured goods.
Tho department Is sending Individ
ual notices to over 58,000 manufac
turers thnt on May 1, 191 G, tholr
guaranties filed undor tho food nnd
drug regulations will bo stricken from
tho files nnd thnt thereafter tho sor
ial number nsslgned to such guaran
ties must not bo used on tho label
or packago of any food or drug. This
action Is In nccordanco with tho reg
ulations adopted on May C, 1914, by
the secretaries of tho treasury, agri
culture and commcrco, which abolish
tho use of the guaranty legend nnd
serial numbers on foods nnd drugs.
Tho ground for this action was that
tho legend "Guaranteed by (nnmo of
guarantor) under tho food and drugs
act, Juno 30, 190C" was undorstood
by many consumers to mean thnt tho
fedornl government had passed upon
and certified tho oxcollonco of tho
article so laboled, whereas tho legond
and tho serial number wero mcroly a
guarantee on tho part of tho manufac
turer to his dealor that tho manu
facturer would nssumo full legal res
ponsibility tor his goods.
In tho menntlmo from tho records
It appears that 58,816 manufacturers
havo filed guaranties nnd obtained
sorlal numbors, tho last numbor Is
sued being 58,810.
Tho notice advises manufacturers
that after May 1, 1915, gunrantlca
Bhould not appear on tho label or
package but should bo Incorporated
In or attached to tho bill of sale, In
voice, bill of lading or other schedulo
giving tho names and quantities or
tho articles. Tho guaranty may bo
printed or Btampcd on tho Invoice
nnd if It Is signed in nccordanco with
the now regulations nnd refers speci
fically to tho goods listed In tho ln
volco nr document it covers, It need
not eontnln n dotnllcd description or
schedulo of tho articles.
Manufacturers who aro asking
pormtsslon to ftlo guaranties nnd ol
tnln serial numbors nro bolng advised
that thoy should attach tholr gunr
anty to tholr invoclcs nnd not seek to
uso the legond or Borlal numbor on
tholr lnbels, ns tho gunrnnty and sor
lal numbor will be withdrawn within
a year.

Jokn Was Right-
John had a friend. He told that friend about the
confidence he had in "The Owl" drug store, so
naturally the friend came to us, not with all his
doubts cleared away as to our ability to meet the
high standard over which John had enthused. We
wero willing to risk his opinion because we were
taking no chances. The friend afterward said to
us: j0hn was right There Is an atmosphere of
confidence about "The Owl." I've heard several
say they like to trade with you."
