The renders of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall s Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous
Surfaces of the System thereby de
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting na
ture in doing its work. The proprie
tors have so much faith in the curative
powers of Hall’s Catarrh Cure that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

Lumbermen Pledge Support.
Resources of the South’s great
lumber industry were pledged to
thei ti >n in resolutions adopted
at the closing sessiorf of the annual,
meeting of the Southern Pine as
sociation held at New Orleans re
recently. A message was sent to
President Wilson, expressing to
him the great sympathy of lumber
men in troubles occasioned by the
crisis with Germany, and stating
that mills and manufacturing
plants throughout the South stood
ready to mobolize immediately in
any manner that would best con
serve the nation's interest.
This meeting was the largest
gathering of yellow pine manufac
turers ever held, being more than
350 mill men present, and all the
papers read and sentiment ex
pressed indicated a hopefulness for
yellow pine distribution during
1917.

GOOD AND EVIL IN JEALOUSY
All Right When It Spurs to Greater
Efforts; Wrong When It Be
comes Unreasoning.
Jealousy develops very early in onr
lives. Ip fuel, even as children, we
felt jealous of other children—of their
pretty clothes, their toys and play
things.
In onr schooldays, because of jeal
ousy over the rapid advancement of
other pupils, we have worked harder
perhaps, so that we. too, might reach
higher marks In our studies; tints we
have gone ahead of our schoolmates.
Because we have beeh jealous of
our neighbor’s prosperity, we have de
veloped ambition; because we have
been jealous of wife or husband, we
have tried more strenuously to please
them; because we have jealously
guarded our country’s honor, we have
secured a place second to none among
the nations of the world.
Jealousy Is a subtle passion, and
must he carefully analyzed. AVe must
never lose sight of the fact that It is
a devastating monster, which if al
lowed to fasten.itself upon our imagi
nation too strongly, will grow to ter
rific proportions.
Tho force that is expressed in jeul
ousy may if wisely governed and
guided into helpful channels, become
the source of achievement that shall
uplift and aid in the world’s work,
while if left to take its destructive
course it may bring down the walls
of the temple .bout the cars of a:, em
bryonic Sam. in.
Unreasoning jealousy is a blighting
curse.
Traveling Insects.
Ship cargoes are often responsible
for the introduction of new species of
insects in different lands. Banana
bunches often hide poisonous reptiles
and insects which travel long dis
tances. only to bite or sting the hand
of some receiver of fruit. Often they
escape alive and breed their kind.
Many venomous snakes have tints been
introduced into lands where none ex
isted before. Strange creatures have
been imported on the blooms of or
chids, and West Indian insects have
traveled in easter lily blossoms. I>e- j
s’truetive moths migrate in fruit 'ships.
Flying insects often follow ships. ’One
curious case was that of a vessel from
tlie tropics followed by a swarm of
butterflies. Out of sight of the shore,
they hid in the cabins and holds, em
erging 40 days later when the ship
reached England. Thus originated
quite a new species of butterfly in the
Brliish isles.
Where He Drew the Line.
Mr. Giltstook hud made money.
11 erefore, lie must have a bigger
house and it must be built for him by i
tin* best architect in the town.
In due course the architect arrived
with elaborate plans, which lie ex
plained to the puzzled merchant
prince.
“Now, the only thing remaining, Mr.
Glltsock,” he concluded, "is the draw
ing room. Where shall we put the
drawing room?”
But Mr. Giltstock laid a firm hand
on the desk.
“Look here, my boy, I draw the line
somewhere. You've made plans for a
smoking room, when I don't smoke; a
music room, when I can’t even play a
mouth organ; a nursery, when I ain't
got in nurse, and a pantry, when 1 don’t
pant. But I'm blamed if I’m going to
let you put up a drawing room, when 1
can't even draw a straight line!”—

f PELL CAST BY WILDERNESS
Veteran Prospector Tells of Weird Ef
fect Long Sojourn in the Wilds
Had on Him.
The hours we spent with unotlier
prospector, the “Old Man of the Moun
tains,” as we called him, were ones
that held us with a charm. There was
something about the deeply-set, pene
trating eyes, the square chin, and tlie
benevolent expression of the fuee that
reminded us of the quiet lakes and
the strength of the distant mountain
peaks.
“Many is the time.” said the old
man, “that I have been prospecting so
i_ar back in the wilderness qf British
Colombia Mart men have said 1 would
never see civilisation again, that I
would either die or g.> insane. *
“Once I had been in ihe wilderness
of British Columbia for it ye: r." be
continued. “Winter was breaking; u;>,
and with the signs of spring; coming;
mi T began to make my way back to
the wertd attain. I traveled long; and
hard, and when T walked down the
street of the first village to which I
came, the children gathered arnmd
me and the women came to their
doors. One woman asked me into her
house. \
“‘Why do the children gill behave
so toward me?' I asked. 'Because you
look so strange,’ she replied. And
then she let me take a looking glass,
and I was startled at the sight of my
self. I bad in vy notieed that my
hair was growing long; but there it
was. and my board, very long and
will to. There was a. strange look in
my eyes and i knew that I had .hist
left the wilderness in time.”—Blanche
K. Herbert, in World Outlook.
SECRET, OF MUSCULAR POWER
Principle Can Be Understood by
Knowledge of Conditions That
Govern Horse's Kick.
We have finally found the secret to
muscular power, which is entirely dif
ferent from what is generally sup
posed /
My son, Newton C. Grover, likes
technical physiology. lie explains that
thoughts are material things and that
different kinds of thoughts can be pro
duced by different kinds of chemical
foods. After falling out several times
over our arguments on physiology, the
secret to the muscular power of the
human machine finally resulted.
Briefly stated, the principle is this:
The horse does not raise his leg; it is
the repelling force of the entire uni
verse that performs the act, ns soon
: as the horse has lined up the oiyuli
' lions that make the movement possi
ble. The horse’s part of the Work is
1 to line up the conditions and to keep.
up the supply of the conditions. Jl
i would he Impossible for a innsele to
! contain enough force to perform what
: a muscle appears to perform.
Another important effect! of universal
force Is produced hv the moon and
planets, the moon being the principal
cause of the difference in the sex of
animals, fowls and fishes; and* the j
planets being secondary causes. ‘la!
a long cycle of years the cause of one
sex is exactly equal to the cause of the
other; but the results can he changed.

Wonderful Harbor of Rio.
The harbor of Itio is one of the
most interesting to enter in the west
ern hemisphere, comparable to that of
New York. But the wonders qf New
York harbor are man made, while
those at Bio are placed there by ma
ture. Sugarloaf peak is the first of
them—a needle of rock rising 1.200
feet sheer from tile water line. The
people of Bio say that Sugarloaf is
an exclamation point set there as an
appropriate punctuation to the sur
rounding scenery. The resemblance is
not striking enough, however, to argue
anything but a lively imagination on
the part of the Brazilians.
There are two other sharply tower
ing peaks, range brothers to the Sugar
loaf but twice as high, just across the
hay from him, which makes an out
line that, seen from the proper angle,
is not utterly unlike a human profile.
The apparition is sometimes known
as "Lord Hotel’s nose,” but who Lord
Hood was. to have his nose tlius hon
ored, is not a matter of record.
About Good Manners.
A rough-nutureil person could never
achieve good manners by mere hon
esty. To cite the savage is a great
mistake; primitive people are always
conventional and ceremonial.
So one takes refuge in saying that
manners, like so many other things
which we know and appreciate as
facts, are felt, but cannot be explained.
That good manners are tile manners
of a good man is very nearly what
Aristotle would have sni^. It sounds
a truism; it is not always true; yet
you will not get much further than
that, once you begin analyzing and ar
guing.
Diplomacy Always Wins.
Mrs. Newcomb-—Oood morning; Is
this Miss Wise's private academy?
Mrs. Binks (hotly)—No. it is not!
This is a private house, and these are
my own children.
Mrs. Nedvcomb (hastily)—Why, I
thought it must lie a school, because
tl»e children looked so educated and
scholarly and—nnd refined, you know.
Mrs. Binks (genially)—Oh. yes. of
course. Come in and sit down. Lucy,
call your six brothers and five sisters,
and Introduce them to the lady, while
I Just put on my hat to show her
where Miss Wise’s school is.”

— Getting Results.
Are you getting results for the hard work and close
attention you are giving to your business? Have you any
thing to show for your last year’s work except a mere living?
Too oft^n we give all our time and thought to work
we are undertaking and do not stop to figure out the results.
If have made a good salary year after year, you should
have something laid up to show for it. If you have a farm
and have made good crops for many years, you should have
a bank account to show for vour net profits. If you have
been in habit of spending all you make, whether it be much
or little, resolve now to figure on the results of your work
and have something to show for it.
Deposit everything you can possibly save above your
living expenses, and at the end of the year you will have
results to show for your year's labor. We'll help you save.
