May hold that creeds, chameleon-like, must
take
Their color from the Age's circumstaucel
Yet,--you have founded faith no man can
shake.
You cast your lot with mine for ill or good,
And more of/l[ than good, God knows, has
been
You, faithful, patient, murmuring not, with-
stood,
Snow-pure and steadfast, patient and serene
The errors that within the blood will live,
The vows forgotten, anger, wrong and guUe--
You, angle-like were ready to forgive,
Through wifely tears there shone a wifely
smile.
At length I said: "the power who gave harms
And gave her, too, the spirit that endures--
Can He less loving than her dear self be,
Though theologic for His love obscures?
My soul and heart cried, 'nay!' and so were
naught
The teachings or" the moles who, blind cry,'Ood'
Is but blind teaching, and by blind men taught
And life begins and ends with Jnst--a sod."
--Herbert M. Lores, In Success.
Gee. W. Lane, Pewamo, Mich. writes:
"Your Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the best
remedy for indigestion and stomach
trouble that I ever used. For years I
suffered from dysl:epaia, at times com-
pelling me to stay in bed and causing
me untold agony. I am completely cured
by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. In recom-
mending it to my friends who suffer from
indigestion I always offer to pay for it if
it fails. Thus far I have never paid." Sa-

Our Fallen Chaef.
Our nation weeps today her fallen chief
The darksome wave from shore to shore has
spread
O'er hearts refusing to be comforted
Amid the depths of their unmeasured grief.
Our sorrow like the sea o'er granite reef
That ,'oars, wind-tossed, in all its anger dread
Ingulfs us in this hour when hope ha~ fled
When neither prayers nor tears can bring re-
lief.
Almighty God! he said "Thy will be done,"
When he was passing thro' the gates of death
Our chief, the man of glory and of strength,
Who wears the crown immortal he hath won
Almighty Godt may We with stifled breath
Have strength to say "Thy will be done," at
length.

"We know hint now, all n,lz'row jealousies
Are silent, and we see him as he moved,
How modest, klndly~ all accomplished, wise,
With what sublime repression of himself,
And In what limits, and how tenderly,
Not swaying to this faction or to ttlat,
Not making his blgh place the lawless perch
For winged ambitions, nor a vantage ground
For pleasure, but tilro"a[[ this tract oflears
Wearing the white flower of a blameless life,"

Many physicians are now prescribing
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure regularly having
found that it is the best prescription
they can write because it is the one prep-
aration which contains the elements nec-
essary to digest not only some kinds of
food but all kinds and it therefore cures
indigestion and dyspepsia no matter
what its cause. Saguache Pharmacy.

Whenever the American people find a
thing of merit, absolute genuine merit
they appreciate it and never hesitate lo
make liberal use of it. It is merit that
counts for the enormous sale of Caaca-
rete, over six million boxes last year. It
is the best bowel and liver regulator in
the world and sells at prios~ that suit
everybody, 10c, 25o and 50c a box, put up
in tablet form and every tablet stamped
"C C C." There is no waste. Cascarets
arc easy to take and are sold by the mak-
ers under an absolute guarantee to re-
fund the money if Cascarets do not prove
satisfactory. A 50c box is enough for a
whole month's treatment for the worst
case. We urge upon every sufferer to
give Casoarete an immediate trial.

A San Luis valley firm has a large
tract of rape on which to run a band eli
sheep this fall before putting them on
the finishing grain. Rape is no doubt a
great preparatory forage and ought to
adorn most of our idle grain fields at this
time of year. Sheep, rape, alfalfa and
grain will make every grain farmer rich
and our western people who are strug-
gling along on the one-crop theory ought
to stop and think about such proposi-
tions for bettering their condition.-

l~skimo Time Table.
"How do the Eskimos tell time?" wee
the inquiry made the other night of a
man who has had considerable eEper.
~ence in north Greenland i~ connection
with the Peary expeditions He had just
been telling something about the long
arctic "day," with the sun circling round
and round a short distance above the
horizon, and the question was a natural
ono.
"They ha~e two different method~"
he replied, "according to the iuterval of
;ime involvec]. For instance, if you are
about to start on a journey and ask au
Eskimo how long it will take he will tell
you 'three sleeps' or 'four sleeps,' corre-
sponding to the number of days the trip
will take, but he knows nothing about.a
day, only that every so often he hu to
stop to sleep. And fortunately, the Es-
kimo finds it convenient to sleep about
i
once in every 9.~t hours, so that his sleep
means practically a day,
"On the other hand I remember seeing
Peary dispatching an Eskimo one morn-
ing with a message to a nearby settle-
ment, and the explorer kept pointing to
the sun, which at the time stood immed-
iately above a rocky eminence across the
bay. I wondered what it waa all about
and asked Peary.
"'I want that fellow to be back here
tomorrow at this time,' he replied, 'and
the only way to tell him is to call hie at-
tention to the position of" the sun. He
knows that he is to return when tha sun
has got around to that point again.
"Sure enough, the next morning when
the sun had circled the horizon and was
again above the point of rock the Eaki.
me could be seen coming acro~ the bay
in his kayak.''
