A littlo bit of cheek is like a littlo drop of wafer or a little grain of sand. It will prove a mighty driving force if you only know how to make- use' of it. An American millionaire, during an illness in London, had been amusing himself reading the numerous begging letters that, arrive by each post. The other day tho nurse heard him laughing heartily. He called her in and showed her one of the letters. It was from a West End shop girl. It set forth that the writer was one of thirty girls in a workroom, and that all the others had black silk skirts, but that she bad not. The poor girl could not afford one. The price was twenty shillings. Would Dives oblige? The man of millions was so tickled at the idea that he instructed tho nurse to sent the money, and by the roturn post came a grateful letter with the writer’s happy assurance, “And now I can rustle it with the best.” Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure for Cough and Cokls never fails. Is 6d and 2s 6d.
