Jim Reeves Drawing out the Mean Man. Robert Carrick, one of the rich est bankers of Scotland a few gen erations ago, was as mean as wealthy. Being one day visited by a deputation collecting sub scriptions toward anew hospital, lie signed lor t wo guineas, and one of the gentlemen expressing disap pointment at the smallness of the amount, he said: “Really, I can not afford more.” The deputation next visited Wilson, one of the largest manu facturers in the city, who, on see ing the list, cried: “What, Cur rick only two guineas?” When informed of what the banker had said, Wilson replied: “Wait, 1 will give him a les son.” Taking his check book, lie filled in a check for CU),(XX), the full amount of his deposit at Garrick’s bank, and sent it for immediate payment. Five minutes later the banker appeared, breathless, and asked, “What is the matter, Wilson?” “Nothing the matter with me,” replied Wilson ; “but these gentle men inform that you couldn't afford more than two guineas for the hospital. Halloa! thinks 1, if that's the case there must be something wrong, and I'll get my money out as soon as possible.” Garrick took the subscription list, erased the two guineas, and substituted fifty, ou which Wilson immediately tore up his check. NOT OTHER-WISE. There is an old allegorical picture of a girl scared at a grass-hopper, but in the act of heedlessly treading on a snake. This is paralleled by the man who spends a large sum of money building a cyclone cellar, but neglects to provide his family with a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a safeguard against bowels complaints, whose vic tims outnumber those of the cyclone a hundred to one. This remedy is every where recognized as the most prompt and reliable medicine in use for these diseases. For sale by Jno. H. Blackburn. Jlewartville Notes.

AH THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, AUGUST 7, 1902 Two Lucky Convicts. New York, July 20.—1n order that he may return to Germany and obtain a fortune of $50,000 to which he recently fell heir, and to which his right has been fully es tablished, Richard Bassler has been pardoned by the New York court of pardons. Bassler was sentenced to two years in state prison last fall on a charge of bur glary. The story of the crime, as he related it to the court of par dons, was that, while intoxicated, he fell through a store window with no intention of stealing. Another prisoner, sentenced for ten years in 189fi on a charge of breaking into a postoffice, was pa roled in order that he might take up the manufacture of a sewing machine invented by him while behind the bars. A company with an authorized capitalization of $1,000,000 has been chartered to manufacture the machine. § The pardoned prisoner is said to have received $50,000 cash and a block of stock in the new company. Brain Leaks. Black the heels of your shoes. There are sleeping on cars on the road to success. There is something lacking in the sermon that pleases everybody Wanting a stimulant and need ing one are two vastly different things. There are only two ways of do ing a thing, and only one of them is right. No man is wholly bad, but some men think it is smart to pretend to be. Some people never quote scrio ture until they want to give an excuse for their meanness. Just as soon as some men are married they imagine that it is time to quit playing the lover. We are prone to look at the faults of others through a micro scope and at our own through the small end of a telescope. The able man who drops a penny in the contribution box usually wears ten dollars worth of sanctimoniousness because of it. —Will M. Maupin. A traveling dime museum went to pieces in Sioux City two weeks ago. The manager and freaks boarded at the Park Hotel, and owed a bill of SB2. They had no money, but told the landlord that ho could keep the fat woman, a negro girl weighing (115 pounds, as a hostage, while they went out and hustled for the money. They must still be hustling, for the landlord has heard nothing from them. Meanwhile he is feeding the fat negro, who, he says, eats as much as two day laborers. lie is beginning to fear he has been tricked. SHATTERS ALL RECORDS. Twice in hospital, F. A.

CASTOR IA For Infanta and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of T&icJu/tf Fence 700 Miles Long. Helena, Mont., Aug. 24.—1 tis proposed to build a wire fence seven hundred miles long on the boundary line between Montana and Canada, the necessity for this huge undertaking arising from the fact that several weeks ago a large number of cattle that had strayed to Canada from this state were seized by the dominion officials on the ground that they had been smuggled. The fence will probably be built jointly by the Canadian and American govern ments and the cost will be several hundred thousand dollars. Falling In Love With Mother. Of all Hie love affairs in the world, none can surpass the true love of the big boy for his mother. It is pure and noble, honorable in the highest degree to both. We do not mean merely a dutiful af fection. We mean a love which makes a boy gallant and courteous to his mother, saying to every body plainly that he is fairly in love with her. Next to the love of a husband, nothing so crowns a woman’s life with honor as this second love, this devotion of a son to her. And we never knew a boy to “turn out” badly who began by falling in love with his mother. Any man may fall in love with a fresh faced girl, and the man who is gallant with the girl may cruel ly neglect the worn and weary wife. But the boy who is a lover of his mother in her middle age is a true knight who will love his wife as much in the sereleaved autumn as he did in the daisied springtime. What Children Should be Taught. The least part of children’s ed ucation is that which they get from books. They should be taught a thous and things at home in early life to make them good members of society. They should be taught to wipe their boots when they come in on wet days. They should be taught to speak softly and answer when spoken to and not contradict. They should be made to sit still on occasions when they are in the drawing-room with grow-up peo ple. They should be taught to use their forks and spoons judiciously not to spill their food or make un pleasant noise in eating. They should be taught not to expect to hear their own voices on every occasion, and not to inter rupt older people’s conversation. They should be taught to shake hands with people in meeting or parting, and to bow to people they know in the streets. They should be taught not to stare rudely or to make audible remarks upon persons and things about them.—Southwestern Pres byterian. Daniel Smith died the other day in Orville, Saginaw county, Mich igan at the age of lit years and 4 months. He “never touched li quor and did not smoke,” but this beautiful record is marred by the further statement that he “chewed tobacco day and night.” Per haps if he had followed the advice of all the reformers, denying him self liquor, tobacco in all forms, meat, sweet foods, etc., this tough old man might have lived to the age of 200—that is, if he could manage to keep from starving while his appetite was young and vigorous. DYSENTERY CUBED WITHOUT THE AID OF A DOCTOR. "I am just up from a hard spell of the flux” (dysentery) says Mr. T. A. Pinner, a well known merchant of Drummond. Tenn. "I used one small bottle of Chamberlains Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and was cured without having a doctor. I consider it the best cholera medicine in the world.” There is no need of employing a doctor when this remedy is used, for no doctor cat; prescribe a better medicine for bowel complaint in any form either for children or adults. It never fails and is pleasant to take. For sale by Jxo. H. Blackburn. "Fences ■ WHY are they GOOD and CHEAP? | ■ GOOD because made of best Bessemer steel, B B heavily galvanized —last a lifetime.
