Now it setMiiN tliht those
who live in glass houses
should not cast pcMiles, or
words to tluit effect. The
editor wan accosted by Judge
Ward the past week with,
"Well i see y on are giving the
out of town trader fits in your
paper, and 1 want to aav right
now that I heartily endorse
yo'ir sentiments, and strictly
believe in patronizing home
people. Milt when the wives
of the merchants thenisel vesare
out of town traders and Mai!
order customers, I think you
ought to condemn tlieni before
you do the private citizens,
Why there are no ladles in

However devout you may lie,
dear madam, do not toll your
child that each personal desire of
the h ii ma ii heart ami mind shall
receive a literal, immediate ans-
wer from God. And do not de-
ceive your child to establish its
faith.
Do not hid your little girl to
pray to liod for a doll, and then
leave her to imagine the gift sent
from (iod when it arrives.
The day will come when the
knowledge that you purchased the
doll at s department store will
cause her to question your vorac-
ity, ami God's goodness, perhaps.
Far wiser will it be to say to
her, "God works through the law
of love, and your mother tries to
lie like 111in noil to give her child
what it will lie best for her*',
J list as He sometimes vends
rain when we desire biiii, and
storm when we desire calm, so
the parent must sometime disap-
point the child for some good and
sufficient reason, not always easy
for the undeveloped mind to un-
derstand. Hut just so far as God
deems best will He grant the
prayers of His children.
The child who has never been
taught to pray has been deprived
of a priceless boon and privilege.

John sal on the doorstep and opened
Ihe letter. It was a brief note,
brusquely Informing him that his only
brother, Abner, had died suddenly, aa
the result of an accident
The Intelligence caused Bachelor
John's hand to tremble, and a small
slip of paper dropped from the envel
'ipe On this was a message written
in pencil in Abner's hand, which ran:
Dear John: You have been a good
brother to me, and I want you to have
Baby firac I have signed the paprn
ii nd lawyer Mackey, here, will give tbem
to you. Oood-by, Brother John.
ABNER.
Bachelor John's eyes grew misty, it
was the first time Abner had shown
any affection for him. Abner had
been the baby. He was ten years
younger than John, and throughout
Ihe years of their boyhood John had
been compelled lo give up to him In
everything. In after years, their par-
'■nts dead, John had endeavored to
be a father to Abner. He had provid
"d for his every need, and when Abner
won the heart of the girl John had
loved In secret, he had closed his
teeth upon his anguish, and had im-
poverished himself to help Abner gel
a start in life.
After Abner went to the gold fields,
lohn had nol heard from him often.
He knew she had died, and that there
had been a baby girl. Hut somehow,
'ie could nol remember how. he had
tot the Impression that the child had
lied also. It would be about three-
no, It must be fully four years old
now
Bachelor John glanced around his
two barren rooms. He had been un-
able to profit by opportunities. Until
middle age, he had worked unceasing
ly and uncomplainingly for Abner and
Her. This was his home—a dreary
place for a baby girl. And how could
lie leave her alone while he was at
work?
"It was Abner's wish." he said. "I
will fix it somehow.".
That night the clock struck 12 while
Bachelor John was leaning over the
table gazing at a faded photograph of
a young woman.
"If the baby looks like her," he
said, as he lay on Ihe bed staring at
the darkness. "I will love—love it!"
To the gold fields was a far journey
for Bachelor John, hut at last he
stood iti I-awyer Mackey's office.
"Your brother," said Ihe attorney,
"left neither wife nor child. He was
killed by the caving in of a tunnel In
his mine, the 'Baby Grace.' This cave-
In uncovered one of the richest veins
in Cripple Creek, and this he has deed

Bachelor John made no reply. In
silence he took Ihe papers and passed
slowly out into the Colorado sunshine,
and upon his face was the ahadow of

For Years
"I keep Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain
Pills on hand all the time, and
would not think of taking a
journey without them, no mat-
ter how short a distance I am
jroing. I have a sister that has
had terrible hcadaches for years,
and I coaxed her to try them
and they helped her so. much,
she now keeps them by her all
the time. From my own exper-
ience 1 cannot praise them
enough."

Many persons have headache
after any little excitement or ex-
ertion. 'lhey cannot attend
church, lectures, entertainments,
or ride nn trains without suffer-
ing. Those who suffer in this
way should try Dr. Miles' Anti-
Pain Tills. They give almost
instant relief without leaving'
any disagreeable after-effects, as
they flo not derange the stonnch
or bowels; just a pleasurable
sense of relief follows their tisc.
