Needed to Kill a Lon* Felt Want Which the Fat Man Refused to Recugnl... It was a late boat crossing the Erie ferry, and there were only three or four passengers in the men's cabin. One of them was a thin man with a long linen duster and a tall white hat. Although there were many vacant seats, this pas senger, after a deliberate inspection of the interior, went to the far comer of the cabin and sat down in a seat next to a fat man with a big valise. “John Chapman, of Ramapor ex claimed the spare man. “How are you tonight?” The fat man 6tared a moment at the speaker and then said: “1 am not John Chapman, of Ramapo, but I am quite well tonight.” "Not John Chapman, of Ramapo?' said the thin man. apparently much sur prised. “Why, are you sure?' “Well, I guess I ought to know who I am!” exclaimed the fat man “Certainly, sir, certainly; to he sure!' replied the thin man. “But, mercy! how .ould I be so much mistaken? Why, if l had gone on with what 1 Imd on my mind 1 would have been mortified bo. yond measure! 1 was so sure you were John Chapman, of Ramapo.” "Mistakes like that frequently Imp- .pen,” said the fat man. “Yes, I know," said the thin man. “It Is not the mistake I deplore so much. The thought of the mortification I would have suffered if I had gone on ami done what 1 had on my mind, and then found that you were not John Chapman, of Ramapo, is what annoys me. Mercy I” The fat iuan bowed. “Yes, indeed,"continued the thin man. “1 don’t know what made me pause on this occasion, for [always go right up to John and without ceremony say, ‘Loan me a dollar till tomorrow.' Now, if 1 had done that tonight, and, after you had loSned we the dollar, 1 Imd dis covered that you were not Johu Chap man, of Ramapo, just see how deadly my mortification would have been. Mercyl It makes rnecoid to think of itl” The fat man assured him, with a smile, that there would have been no occasion whatever for mortification on that score. ThanksI thanks!” exclaimed the thin man. “You are very kind. Bat I don’t know as 1 ought to accept it even until tomorrow. If you were only John Chap man, of Ramapo, nowl You are exceed ingly like him in looks and manner? The fat man bowed, but the smile was missing. The boat was now nearing her •lip. If, as you say. my fears of being mor tified beyoud measure if I Imd gone at yon as John Chapman, of Ramapo, are groundless,” said the thin man blandly, ‘I will put the thought aside and accept the loan—bnt only till tomorrow! Only till tomorrow!" The fat man grabbed hi* valise and harried on deck, looking back once or twice to see it the thin man was in pur suit. He wasn't He sat still and watched the fat man as he disappeared across the gangplank. Then hu arose and mopped his forehead with a red handkerchief. It’s singular, nowadays, how tight the money market is," said he.—New York Sun. Electricity in Agriculture. One of the first to recognise the great importance of utilixiug electricity for farming purposes in England was the Marquis of Salisbury, who not only nses the water power on bis estate for light ing by electricity, but also grinds bis corn, cuts bis horse fodder, pimqis his water and does a variety of other work by means of electric motors. On many manors which are adjacent to streams of water the farmers are beginuiug to real- ixe the great possibilities which are close at hand for the more .economical work ing of their farms and are installing electrical plants which can be worked at a cost unapproached by any other means. There aro tens of thousands of portable and other steam engines owned by agri culturists in this country which could be utilised in a variety of ways in con nection with electricity. The mere sav ing in insurance alone would in number less esses justify a fanner in driving bis thrashing, chaff entting and grinding machinery by an electric motor instead of being obliged to bring bis engine, m now, right into bis farm buildings,— New York Telegram. ■BI|t>R.tACKER'8 ENGLISH PILLS Are active, effective and pure.

Ifs strange how marriage changes a man. You recollect how Mlldy was al ways complaining of bis deafness before his marriage? Yes, I notice now that he never seems to think its an affliction at all. “ Woman's Soffss-age. was what a witty woman called that period of life which all middle-aged pass through, and during which so many seem to think they ftust suffer—that nature intended it so. The same lady added: “If you don’t believe in ‘wo man’s sufferago,' there Is one ballot which will effectually defeat It—Dr. Pierce's Favorite Proscription-” This is true, not only at the period of middle life, but at all ages when women suffer from uterine diseases, painful irregu larities, inflammation, ulceration or pro lapsus, the “Favorite Prescription” so strengthens the weak or diseased organs and enriches the blood, that years of lioalth and enjoymeut are added to life, Clara—Such a queer pair of eyes as that child has.
