OME into the garden, Maud, In your ancient Grecian garb; But be very wary, Mary, For the rose has still a barb, And your footfall airy, Mary, Might perchance pick up a thorn; Then you'll feel so sweary, Mary, That your shoes you have forsworn.

It is difficult to make people believe that coffee is a poison to at least one person out of every three, but people are slowly finding it out, although thou- sands of them suffer terribly before they discover the fact. A New York hotel man says: ‘‘Each time after drinking coffee I became restless, nervous and excited, so that I was unable to sit five minutes in one place, was also inclined to vomit and suffered from loss of sleep, which got worse and wi “A lady said that perhaps coffee was the cause of my trouble, and suggested that I try Postum. I laughed at the thought that coffee hurt me, but she in- sisi so hard that I finally had some Postum made. I have been using it in place of coffee ever since, for I noticed that all my former nervous and ir- ritation disappeared. n to sleep perfectly, and the Postum t 1 as good or better than the old coffee, so what was the use of sticking to a beverage that was injuring me? “One day on an excursion up the coun- try | remarked to a young. lady friend on her greatly improved appearance.

Roscoe had been thoroughly drilled in the prayer, 89 that no trouble was anticipated on that score. On the particular Sunday of Roscoe's first and only visit, the prayer had reached the clause, ‘‘Give us this day our daily bread,’? when, during the pause which followed, little Roscoe, to the distress of Richard and the con- sternation of the class, added in a shrill treble, ‘‘And a little gravy !"’ Mind Over Matter. ‘*Mamma, I just now fell downstairs and hit every step all the way down!” exclaimed little Mary, who attends the Christian Science Sunday school. Did you hurt yourself, dear?” “‘No, mamma. I kept saying, ‘Truth, truth, truth!’ every step I hit, and I didn’t hurt myself a bit. But I had Fido in my arms when I fell and I think he is pretty badly hurt.’’ “*What makes you think so, dear? “Why, every step we hit he yelled, ‘Error, error, error!’’’ Practical Application. A Sunday-school teacher, after a talk to her small boys on the cruelty of cut- ting dogs’ ears and tails, asked, “‘What does the Bible say about it? Who can tell me?”’ “‘Tcan,"’ said a small boy, holding up bis hand. “Well, what is it, John?” **What God hath joined together, let no man put asunder. ”’ Little boy of East Side (to visitor)— “Lady, did 3 I was in de country this summer, and I asked a country lady fora drink.
