His porkers had been driven so full
of splinters as to be scarcely rec

A man sitting in a back window of
his residence just out of the path of

grazing in a neighboring field, go
sailing skyward. They landed on an
adjoining farm and began grazing
again. He has not yet recovered
from his astonishment.

The Drummer.
A drummer who applied fora
loan of m >ney Mas put through
the following examination by a
member of the Drummers’ associa
tion, says The Business World:
“Where did you come from?”
“From the town of St. John,
Michigan.”
“What came you here to do?”
“To take a few orders and col
lect a bill of Billson.”
“Then you are a drummer?”
“I am so taken and accepted by
the boys.”
“How may I know you to be a
drummer?”
“By my cheek and my forty
pound sample case. Try me.”
“How will you be tried?”
“By the square.”
“Why by the square?”
“Because the square is a magis
trate ami an emblem of stupidity.”
“Where were you first led to be
a drummer?”
“In my mind.”
“Where next?,’
“In a printing office adjoining a
post of drummers.”
“How were you prepared?”
“By being divested of my last
cent, my cheek rubbed down witli
a brick, a bunion plaster over each
eye and a heavy sample case in
each hand. In this fix I was con
ducted to the door of the post.”
“How did you know it was a
door being blind?”
“By first stepping in coal scut
tle and afterwards bumping my
head against the door knob.”
“How gained you admission?”
“By benefit of my cheek.”
“Had you the required cheek?”
“I had it not, but Charlie
Elchelberger 1 ad it for me,”
“How were you received?”
“On the toe of a boot, applied
to my natural trousers.”
“What did this teach you?”
“Not to fool around too much.”
“What happened next?”
“I was sot down on a cako of
ice and asked if I put my trust in
mercantile reports.”
“Your answer?”
“Nowifl knowmyselfJ don’t.”
“How were you next handled?”
“J was put straddle of a 2x4
and trotted nine times around the
room, and then directed to the
Left Bower for further instruc
tions.”
“How di<l he instruct you?”
“To approach a customer in
three upright, regular steps, my
business card extended, my arm
forming a perfect square.”
“How were you then disposed
of?”
“I was seated on a cake of ice
in front of a dry goods box and
here made to take the following
horrible and binding oath:
“T. John Moyer, do hereon
and herein most everlastingly and
diabolically swear, that I will
never reveal and always steal ali
the trade secrets I can for the ben

further swear by the baldheaded

Rheumatism Q
The liniment bottle and flannel strip are
familiar objects in nearly every household. y
They are the weapons that have been used for wL .' 4j
generations to fight old Rheumatism, and are -
about as effective in the battle with this giant t JF
disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers • *
would be in modern warfare. ' Wjp-
Rheumatism is caused by an acid, sour ™
condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settle*
in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing
else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They
were deposited there by the blood and can be reached only through the blood.
Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and
pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every
change of the weather; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system
arc infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured
until the blood bps been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly
and promptly as 8 S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream
*— _ of rich, strong blood to the affected parts, which
fQq LpN dissolves and washes out all foreign materials, and the
sufferer obtains happy relief from the torturing pains.
gjjj kj) S. S. S. contains no potash or other mineral, but
is a perfect vegetable blood purifier*and most
exhilarating tonic. Our physicians will advise, without charge, all who
write about their case, and we will send free our special book on Rheumatism
and its treatment. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, 6a.
Living a Selfish Life.

Sentinel, when he says:

is truly free from obligations to
the world. There is no such thing
as independence. Our duties to
our neighbors are ever present.
They may devolve upon the rich

In fact, on the former devolves a
more urgent duty. People who
live for themselves alone dry up
in cynicism and selfishness. They

them in their lives, they frequent

“B. L. Byer, a well known cooper of

Remedy saved his life last summer.

Kiss is a noun, it is a name,
proper noun because it’s the pro
per thing to do when they are
ready and the heart is willing;
plural number because two per
form it; common gender, because
it is performed by one of each sex;
possessive case, because it pos
sesses a delicate infatuation for
the human race and agrees with
the parties performing the act.
Kissing is closely connected with
“bus” which is a good old back
woods expression, meaning a kiss
that is highly enjoyed by two
greenhorns who have powerful
lungs to perform the act with.
I u tliis case bus means kiss again ;
pluribus means a number of kisses;
horn i Inis means to be caught by
the old folks; merribus means to
steal a kiss; symblibus means to
kiss the hand instead of the lips;
blunderbus means to kiss an old
maid by mistake; and ominibus
means to kiss all parents, includ
ing the mother-in-law. —Ex.
