Lucky Man.
The optimist is a man that does not
believe:
There Is sand in sugar.
That policemen are in league with
burglars.
That the milkman waters the milk.
That his grocer gives short weight.
That the world needs fixing.
That hard times are just ahead.
That there are no times like the
old times.
That every man is dishonest until
proven honest.
That virtue is a lost quality.
That life is not worth living.
Are you an optimist?

The Proof.
‘‘John, I have positive proof that that
new janitor is a'burglar in disguise!”
“Now, my dear, what put that silly
notion into your head?”
“It is no silly notion, I thank you.
I know he is! I am just as positive of
it as I would be if I didn’t have the
proof! So now!”
“Well, what is the proof, Jennie?”
“Why, er—because! That’s why!”

A noted cat. Tools Willard, onto j
owned iiy Miss Francos Willard, llio
temperance leader, is dead. Tools con-
tributed to the furthering of the cause
which commanded his mistress’ life
by posing for his photograph. The
sale of Toots’ pictures netted $2,000 j
for temperance work, lie was a big j
Persian cat. which had originally boon
named Gladstone, but when the Grand
Old Man repudiated eertain temper-
ance principles, Miss Willard prompt
ly reebristened the cat Toots. Twits
was very fond of violets, and his dot-
ing mistress, it is said, used to carry
him bunches of the fragrant flowers,
when on her return from abroad after
her mother’s death she went to see
him at the home of a friend to whose
care she had intrusted him. He was
a magnificent animal, weighing twen
ty-tliree pounds, with eyes like jewels,
a splendid, plump brush, and long,
silky coat.—Boston Transcript.

This is a great theorem! How can
strong men of great Intellects afford
to hold down dry goods boxes at the
corner grocery and save the country
gratis, when they cannot personally
f nance a mortgage on a family mnle?
Often Comes From Lack of Right
Food.
Napoleon said that the best fed
soldiers were his best soldiers, for
fear and nervousness come quickly
when the stomach is not nourished.
Nervous fear is a sure sign that the
body is not supplied with the right
food.
A Connecticut lady says: “For
many years I had been a sufferer from
indigestion and. heart trouble and in
almost constant fear of sudden death,
the most acute suffering possible.
Dieting brought on weakness, emacia-
tion and nervous exhaustion and I
was a complete wreck physically and
almost a wreck mentally.
“I tried many foods, but could not
avoid the terrible nausea followed by
vomiting that came after eating until
I tried Grape-Nuts. This food agreed
with my palate and stomach from the
start. This was about a year ago.
Steadily and surely a change from
sickness to health came until now I
have no symptoms of dyspepsia and
can walk 10 miies a day without being
greatly fatigued. I have not taken a
drop of medicine since I began the
use of Grape-Nuts and people say I
look many years younger than I
really am.
“My poor old sick body has been
made over and I feel as though my
head had been too. Life is worth liv-
ing now and 1 expect to enjoy it for
many years to come if I can keep
away from bad foods and have Grape-
Nuts.” Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
There’s a reason.
Look in each package for a copy of
the famous little book, “The Road to
Wellvtlle.”

■right's Disease Cured.
Whitehall, III., Dec. 7.—A case hat
been rcrordod iu litis place recently,
which iip.'.cts the theory of many phy-
efrianx that Biiehi’s IMo-ane is Incur-
able. It Ia the enno of Mr. Lon Manley,
whom the doctor!* told that ho could
never recover. Mr. Munley tells the
story of his cane and how he was
cured in this way:
“I began using Dodd's Kidney Pills
after the doctors hud given me up.
For four or five years I bad Kidney.
4ioiuach and Liver Troubles; I was a
general wrack and at times I would
»tet down with my back so bad that I
• •ould not turn myself in lied for three
or four days at a time.
“1 had several doctors and at last
they told me I had Bright’s Disease,
nod that 1 could never get well. I
commenced to use Dodd’s Kidney Pills
j.nd I ant now able to do all my work
and am all right. I most heartily
recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills and
am very thankful for tho cure they
worked in my case. They saved my
life after the doctors had given me
up.”
The man who squanders the money
that belongs to bis family is a mean
thief.
INSIST O NGETTING IT.
Some grocers say they don’t keep
Defiance Starch. This is because they
have a stock on hand of other brands
containing only 12 oz. in a package,
which they won’t be able to sell first,
because Defiance contains 16 oz. for the
same money.
In ancient times the Egyptians con-
sidered red a symbol of fidelity.
