Ito III n g— If there 'is one thing more than another which gratifies us, it is the ‘ great velume of hearty thanks which ”come from grateful parents for the canes Hood’s Sarsapaiilla has effected upon thei1 childien. The agony of despair turns to unspeakable joy as mothers and fathers see dreadful sores and eruptions gradually yield to the - potent purifying. power of this great medicine, and bright boys and girls given perfect health. Read this: “When my baby was four weeks old, scrofulous eczema broke out on his body. He became literally covered with 3.0 r e s When six months old the breaking out healed on his body, but his head, face and arms were» a terrible sight. I passed many sleepless nights holding his little hands to keep him from scratching his face. I cannot tell what hesuflered with the sores. One doctor attended him a year without avail. No one thought he would ever get Well. He was almost a year old when I commenced to give him Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla. He soon grew 'so much better that ured )- I-was able to rest at night. Gradually the sores on his head and arms healed, the burning and itching ceased, and he slept better. In 2 months he looked like an- other child, gained strength, was cured. I recommend all persons afflicted with eczema or any skin disease to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I feel assured that it will do wonders for others.

M’ARTBUR. «1...... ,. May was tvaiting for her aflianced lover to call. As might be expected, she was looking her best and her best was very good indeed. She was wear- ing the dress she knew he liked, and her hair was made up as she knew he loved to see it—in soft folds on the sides and gathered into a loose knot at the back. Though there was much about her petite figure and bright face that sug- gested sauciness, it was quite evident there was at least one person in the world for whose sake she was willing to subdue her teasing disposition. Fred was really not late; but as she happened to be ready to greet him be- fore the appointed hour she was just as impatient as if it were long past. As she could not spend all her time look- ing in the mirror over the mantel to see if her hair was just right and all her ribbons in place, or in. admiring her diamond engagement ring, she finally picked up the morning paper and began to read. After scanning the millinery advertisements she searched till she found the “Wit and Wisdom” column. She then curled herself in a capacious easy chair and prepared to pass the time as pleasantly as possible. Now it sometimes happens that news- paper humorists are exceedingly wise young menwho frequently ‘give utter~ ance to marvelous maxims. As May read down the column, laughing at the jokes and from time to time exclaim- ing against her lover’s tardiness, her eye was arrested bya notable bit of It read as follows: “No girl buta fool would marry a man whom she has never seen en- raged 1| ,,..~_..‘._x—._, “How absurd. "she exclaimed. “What good would it do to see him enraged? It would only make him say disagree- able things.” ‘ Then she mused awhile. "Well," she thought, “perhaps it would be bet- ter to know before one is married than after what disagreeable things a man can say. I am not going to en- rage Fred for any such foolish reason; but, perhaps, it would be good fun to tease him a little. What can I do? I couldn‘t enrage him very well without flirting, and I am not going to do that lknowl He always says a girl with beautiful hair can make herself look more hideous by doing it up untaste- fully than in any other way——and he hates to see mine made up in a. knot on top of my head. I‘ll just make it up that way and see how he will act. It will annoy him, so that I can tease him just a little and then make up friends. He deserves a little punish- ment. anyway. for it is almost five minutes past eight o'clock." She hurried away to her room to make the change just as Fred rang the doorbell. He was admitted by the servant and was surprised not to find May prepared to greet him. but went into the parlor to wait. In his hand he had a box of bon-bons he had brought in payment of a. wager he had‘ lost. To make wagers with his fiancee and lose them is the duty and delight of every true lover. While waiting he untied the ribbon of the box, so that she might get at the sweets without delay. But still she did not come. To pass the time he was at last forced to take up the paper May had left in the easy chair. Finding It folded so as to show the “Wit and Wis- dom” column, he began to read the paragraphs. As became a man of the world, he sniffed contemptuously at the old jokes and smiled patronizing-1y at those that were new to him. Sud- denly he came to a. dead halt at the companion paragraph to the one that was inspiring May‘s conduct at that moment. It read: ”No man but a fool would marry a girl whom he had never seen cry.” “What nonsensel" . he said. as he he didn’t read much before he found himself turning back to that piece of wisdom. , “By Jove!” he thought, “I have never seen May cry. Well, I hope I never shall. I wonder what is keep- ing her? Probably she is preparing- some little surprise for me;” and he smiled to himself with that blissful egotism peculiar”, to men who are en- gaged. After awhile he reflected:~ “I wonder if it would really be very hard to make her cry? I guess not. She is such a dear, tender-hearted little creat- ure it would be cruel .to try. Still I and then We could make up friends. She really deserves some punishment for keeping me waiting. I believe I‘ll pretend to be offended and make my- self disagreeable to her. ’ I know that will bring the tears to her eyes in an instant and then I’ll explain. To be- brought the candies. " He went out in- to the hallway to hide the box. The first place that suggested itself was his hat. and he dropped the box into its ample depth. He had no sooner re- turned to the parlor than May ap- peared. Each had the same .end in view—to offend the other slightly. Of course, neither began the plan of cam- , paign until after the kiss.of greeting. Then he noticed that her. hair‘ was made up in the way he detested. There was his excuse for being disagreeable and he jumped at It. I passed on to the next paragraph. But . could easily explain everything away gin with, I’ll pretend not to have_ “Have you any idea how homely‘ you look when you have your hair made up in that way?” he asked. . The cruel candor of the question made her gasp, for he had always vowed that she looked beautiful in every way. “W 11y. " she answered, saucily, “there are other people who like it very much in this way.’ "Who. for instance?” “Reggie Burnett.” A detestable fellow. whom Fred would not honor by considering as a. rival. “I am proud to find you value his opinion more than mine,” he answered, hotly. “He, at least. does not neglect to pay when he loses a wager,” she re- sponded, looking about for the expect- ed box of candies. "Then he' is just the man for you to make wagers with." . “Thanks for the advice. I shall ar- range one with him the next time he calls.” “And you can make up your hair in exactly the way he likes it.” “It is that way now.” "Perhaps you are expecting him to- night.” he remarked, suspiciously. The suspicion hurt her more than his anger and she began to lose her tem- per too. “I didn't say I was not!” "That is why you are so disagrees able to me! You wish to drive me away, so that you can have the even- ing free to spend it with him.” “How clever of you to guess it all.” They had both forgotten their original purpose by this time and were really angry with each other. "And this,” he said, with aligthe calmness he cquld command, "is the girl _who has promised to marry me!” “She hasn't married you yet, and she never will." “Very well! latel” "I am glad it 1sn ’t!” “Indeedl Then, Miss Bond, I shall bid you good night, and leave you to enjoy the company of those whosead- miration you prize so highly.” He rushed into the hallway and picked up his hat. As he raised'it to his head a shower of assorted candies rattled about him and scattered over the carpet. By distracting his mind from his anger: for a moment this little accident brought him to his senses. He felt that he could not leave her so, and returned to, the parlor to ask if he might ring for a. servant to sweep up: the candies. As he stepped back to the parlor door he saw that May had thrown her- self on the sofa. and was sobbing vio- lently. With one hand she was taking the pins out of her hair and pulling it- down about he1 shoulders. It 15 almost always true of lovers’ q uarrels that repentance comes swiftly, though reconciliation may be slow. He no sooner saw that she was crying than he remembered he had set to work to make her cry. Everything else—her exasperating conduct and all—was for- gotten in an instant. He rushed to her side, and putting his arm about her. pleaded. "I‘org1ve me. won’t you, dear? I had no right to act so disagreeably, and I am very sorry.” She instantly showed him a. very tearful face. “Nol No! It is I who should ask for forgiveness. I made up my hair in that horrid way on purpose to anger you. Will you forgive me?” It is good it is not too way. A moment later she laughed through the tears that were still fall— ing, as she reached up and took a. cream drop out of his hair. ' “Why. how did that get there?” ' "O! I brought that box- of candies and left it in my hat in the hallway. When I was putting on my hat I spilled the boxful of candies over my- self. The floor is covered with them.” “Then you brought them after all?" ”Yes! Ihid them out there just to tease you." “Why?" she asked. Then she re- membered that she had done up her hair to provoke him. They both looked instinctively at the paper and then at each other. “Were you reading those jokes. too?” he asked. She nodded, shamefacedly. "And you thought you would not be fool enough to marry me with- out having seen me enraged?” “Well, I suppose you feel the better of having seen me cry.” she answered, saucily. At this point there occurred alack of matter, such as Rosalind says should be supplied with a kiss. Presently she whispered: “Fred, dear, I have thought of another maxim that should be added to the- two horrid ones in that paper. " "What is it?" “Only a pair of fools would ever try to be as wise as a. newspaper humorist.”-—N. Y. Truth. Land Titles In Indian Territory. There are now about three hundred thousand white people in the Indian territory. ’lhey have built up towns, but are mere tenants at suifrance with- out a particle of title to the lands on which they built. The Indian courts are closed against them, as are the In- dian schools to their children, thirty thousand of whom have no other op- portunity for schooling, excepting those whose parents are able to hire private teachers. They have no voice in the governments of these five na- tions nor a. police officer to protect 'them or their property against vio- lence. It will be the object of the com- mission, first, to. obtain such a. solu- tion of the town-site question that these who have built up these towns and invested large sums in costly buildings and expensive stores and trading places may have some title to the ground upon which the structures stand and some voice in'their govern- ment, and secondly, to see that the vast and valuable territory shall be held either according to the original title, for all Indians equally, or shall be allotted in severalty to them, so that each may hold his own share' in fee. —Chicago Chronicle.
