ago he began feeling bad, and as
time went on he did not improve,
until finally he gave up his work
in his barber shop and gave his

condition. He gradually grew
worse, and at last he went to the
Weitimer Institute, at Nevada,
Mo., but he recieved no relief or

Charles G. Dawea’ Good Advlca to
Young Men in Business.
Thi6 Is a hard world in business. It
always has been and always will be.
There are many good and generous
men in it. There are many who will
lend a helping hand to you In your ad-
versity, but in the time of need you
will not find them among the men
who tried to get you to embark In
speculation with your little surplus,
and to sell you something which
would help you to “easy money." Be
self-reliant. Make your own investi-
gation into investments. When you
cannot, put your money in a good
savings bank. Distrust the financial
demagogues as you distrust the po-
litical demagogue. Keep your hand
on your pocketbook as you travel life
—first, to give always in proportion
to your means to those who are poor-
er; second, to hold from those who
would take through force or fraud
what you need for yourself and yours.
You will then, writes Mr. Dawes In
the Saturday Evening Post, have your
hand where most of the other fellows
have only their eyes. In this alone
you will have the advantage of them.

Ingenuity in Stealing.
"What’s all the row about?” the
hungry man queried as the manager
of the city restaurant was seen to
rush excitedly to the cashier’s desk
and detain a departing individual.
The waiter explained. For a month
past some of the numbered checks
had been missing, and It had been dis-
covered that certain patrons were
economizing at the expense of the
management. A man would order 15
cents’ worth and receive a check for
the amount. Then he would secrete
the check when the waiter wasn't
looking and order a quarter’s worth
more of eatables. The waiter would
then give a check for 40 cents, but
when it came time to pay the cus-
tomer would use the 15-cent ticket to
get by the door. ‘‘H’m,’’ muttered the
hungry man; “fine scheme," and In
the excitement he passed a Canadian
dime on the cashier.
A Dog's Opinion of Boston Dialect.
"An intelligent looking dog," said
the visitor from Boston. “Oh, he Is,”
exclaimed Fido's owner. "He knows
every word you say.” Then said the
visitor from Boston: "My canine
friend, I am exceedingly interested in
the hypothesis that has been present-
ed to me to the effect that your under-
standing of human speech is perfect,
and in order to test this matter I
wish that you would be good enough
to bark three times in rapid succes-
sion as an indication that your com
prehension of my request is in all
ways clear and lucid." “And did he
bark?” said I to Teagarden, who was
telling me the story. "No,” said Tea-
garden, “but he growled like —.”
Citron Tree and the Bible.
Was the citron tree the tree of
knowledge of good and evil in the
garden of Eden? Some persons think
it was. In any event, it appears that
‘‘citron’’ would often be the right
rendering In passages where the au-
thorized version of the Bible gives
"apple." For instance, in the Prov-
erbs, “A word fitly spoken Is like ap-
ples of gold in pictures of silver.
And in the Song of Solomon, “As the
apple tree among the trees of the
wood, so is my beloved among the
sons." And again, “Stay me with
flagons, comfort me with apples, for
I am sick of love.”
