AT HOME Froth Without Fury. From Saturday Evening Post The late Augustus H. Garland, of Arkansas, was a senator from that state before he resigned to become attorney-general under President Cleveland. . | He and Senators Matt Butler, of South Carolina, and Dan Voorhees, ot | Indiana, were cronies and played ^ many Jokes on one another. Garland, was very fond of candy and ate great quantties of It One day a constituent of Senator Butler's, sent him a dozen cakes of real tar soap—black, shiny and pure. Butler saw a chance for a joke, so he summoned Senator Voor hees and told him that he intended to place a chunk of the soap on Voorhees’ desk. If Garland asked for it Voorhees was to give ft to him as candy. Garland came along, saw the tar soap and reached for it, saying: "Candy, eh? Well, I guess Ill eat this piece.” v He bit off a liberal mouthful and be gan to chew it. They watched him until the lather began to form on Gar land’s Ups, and then fled to the rear of the senate chamber, waiting for the explosion. The two conspirators expected to see Garland rlBe up and shout about the deception. Instead, he , calmly chewed his mouthful of soap,' swal lowed it, took another mouthful and chewed and swallowed that. They went Into the cloakroom to talk over Garland’s amazing act. As they were wondering what would hap pen to him, Garland came In. “Hi, Butler,” hi) said, that’s mighty fine candy you gaire me. Where can I get some of It?” "Did you like it?” gasped Butler. "Oh, yes! It was great,” Garland replied. "The only criticism I would make Is that the chocolate flavor Is rather subdued." H. H. DBNNI80N—Dentist 'Phone J. W. DORSETT, Dentist, now in Davls-Bx.

The Saturday Evening Post records a little Incident which happened In the senate some time ngo. Senator Bev eridge, of Indiana, wns Instructing his fellow-members on an important sub ject. In the midst of an impassioned speech lie wns interrupted by Senator Pettus, who arose deliberately and addressed the chair; “Docs the senator from Indiana yield to the senator from Alabama?” asked the presiding officer. “Certainly,” said Senator Beveridge. “1 always am glad to yield to the sen ator from Alabama, who never inter rupts without shedding knowledge on the subject which Is under discussion, and who always adorns every speech into which he may come with his rare and graceful humor. What does the senator from Alabama desire to ask me?" “Nothing,” said Senator Pettus sol emnly. “1 move that we adjourn. His Little All. From Saturday Evening Post. Colonel William Zeveley, the leading lawyer of the Indian Territory, once defended a boy named Wolf for some Infraction of the law. The boy was convicted — although Colonel Zeveley made a most eloquent plea In his be half—and fined-(500. Zeveley then made another plea for a reduction of the fine. He explained that the boy’s father was a market- gardener, who worked very hard for his money, and that a fine of (250 would be all he could possibly pay out of his savings. The judge was obdurate and Zeve ley asked for twenty-four hours In which to get the money. He sum moned the market-gardener and told him to get (500 and change Into silver dollars, halves and quarters and bring It to the court-room next morning. When court opened the market- gardener was there with n basket on his arm. The Judge naked for the fine and the gardener handed up the bas ket. "There it Is, Judge," he said. "There It Is; the money I have been saving fifty cents at a time for years. It is all I have.” The Judge' glared at Zeveley. “Con found you, Zeveley,” he said; “you know I can’t take this!" Zeveley shrugged his shoulders and the judge reduced the fine to (250, which the father counted out labor iously to the clerk of the court. After court adjourned the judge said to Zeveley; “Did you put up that Job on me?” , “Why, Judge,” Zeveley replied, "I am surprised that you should suggest such' a thing.” But there was a twinkle In his north east eye.'

Ward, of Dyersburg, Tenn., writes: “This is to certify that I have used Orlno Laxative Fruit Syrup for chronic constipation, and it has prov- cu, without a doubt, to be a thorough, practical remedy for this trouble, and it Is with pleasure I offer my con scientious reference.” Continued In Both Cases. From Boston Herald. Many years ago there lived In Cam den, Me., two neighbors, Dr. Huse and Judge Thayer. The doctor had occa sion to sue a man, and of course em ployed his neighbor, the judge, as his counsel. After a session of court he met the judge and asked about his case. The judge said It was contin ued. Meeting him again, after another session, and asking again about his case, the same answer was given. As it cost (2 or (3 each time it was continued, the doctor thought by the time it was settled after paying the judge, he would get nothing. Some time afterward the judge wns 'afflicted with a felon, and of course employed his neighbor, the doctor. After suffering awhile, he met the doc tor, and said; “Doctor, this thing is getting along very slowly. I, have walked the floor nights for a week. What are you doing to It?" The doctor, who stammered badly, replied: Con-con-coniinuing It,. by George.” FOR THE NEXT 1:0 » We will offer Unusual Inducements in Price on 100 Rolls Japs an d.. ma These goods are all this season s im portations, and m variety of pattern and quality are unequaled.
