A Mighty Tough Witness.
The lawyer for the defendant
was trying to cross-examine a
Swede who had been subpoenaed
by the other side as a witness in
an accident case.
“Now, Anderson, what do you
do?” asked the luwyer.
“Sank you, but Aw an not vera
well.”
“I didn’t ask you how is your
health, but what do you do?”
“Oh, yas. Aw vewrk.”
“We know that but what kind
of work do you do?”
“Ruddy hard vewrk: it ees pud
dy hard vewrk.”
“Oh, yas; Aw vewrk in the fac
tory.”
“Very good. What kind of a
factory?”
“It ees wery big factory.”
“Your honor,” said the lawyer,
addressing the court, “if this
keeps on 1 think we’ll have to
have an interpreter.” Then he
returned to the witness.
“Look here, Anderson, what do
you do in that factory—what do
you do in that fact’ry, eh?”
“Exactly. Now tell us what vou
make.”
“Von dollar an’ a half a day.”
And the interpreter was called

Senator “Joe” Hawley has a
collection of dog stories, any one
of which wins friends and votes.
He was taking a constitutional
in a Western New York village
on a pleasant summer’s day.
While passing a cott age he was ap
proached by its tenant, who look
ed like a panhandler.
“Can’t you help me, sir!” said
the man.
“Why! You can’t need any
thing,” returned tin* Senator.
“You have four or five dogs around
the plane, my man.”
“That’s true, sir, was the reply,
“but 1 can’t compel my family to
eat dogs."
SOME SEE THROUGH A ULASS

I have been benefitted so many
times by Cheney’s Expectorant that it
eeenis useless to offer a testimonial.

coughs and colds it is pre-eminent.

“When a Man’s Married
His Troubles Begin.”
While waiting for the train the
June bride and bridegroom walk
ed slowly up and down the plat
form.
“I don’t know what this joking
and guying may have been to vou,”
lie remarked, “but it’s death to
me. I never experienced such an
ordeal.”
“It’s perfectly dreadful,” she
answered. “1 shall be so glad
when we get a.vay from everybody
we know.”
“They’re actually impertinent,”
he went on. “Why, the very na
tives ”
At this unpropitious moment
the wheezy old station master
walked up to them.
“He you goin’ to take this
train?” he asked.
“It’s none of your business,”
retorted the bridegroom indig
nantly, as he guided the bride up
the platform, where they condol
ed with each other over the imper
tinence of the natives.
Onward came the train, its
vapor curling from afar. It was
the last to their destination that
day; an express. Nearer it came,
at full speed, then in a moment
it whizzed past and was gone.
“Why hi the thunder didn’t
that train Stop?” yelled the
bridegroom.
“’CoS yez said ’twarnt none
of my bisnesß. * 1 has to signal if
that train's to stop.
And as the old station master
softly stroked his beard there was
a wicked twinkle in his eye.

VERY REMARKABLE CURE OF
DIARRHOEA.
"About six years ago for the tirst
lime in my life 1 had a sudden and se
vere attack of diarrhoea.’’ says Mrs.
Alice Miller, of Morgan. Texas "I
got temporary relief, but it came back
again, and for six long years I have
suffered more misery and agony than
1 can tell. It was worse than death.
My husband spent hundreds of dollars
for physicians prescriptions and treat -
ment without avail. Finally \ve moved
to Bosque county, our present home,
and one day 1 happened to see an ad
vertisement of Chamberlain’s Cblic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Rentedy with
a testimonial of a man who had been
cured by it. The case was so similar
to my own that I concluded to try the
remedy. The result was wonderful.
Icould hardly realize that 1 was well
again, or believe it could be 'so after
having suffered so long, but that one
bottle of medicine, costing but a few
cents, cured me.” For sale by J. H.
Blackburn, druggist.

How old are You?
Here is a unique and clever
way to learn the age of your friend.
Learn it by heart, and try it
when you can. It will amuse
your friends and afford a good
mathematical exercice for your
selves. We found the story in an
exchange:
One day there came to the court
of a king a gray-haired professor,
who amused the king greatly. He
told the monarch a number of
tilings he never knew before, and
the king was delighted. But finally
it came to a point where the ruler
wanted to know the age of the
professor so he thought of a math
ematical problem.
“Ahem!” said the king, “I
have an interesting sum for you;
it is a trial in mental arithmetic,
*
Think of the month of your birth.”
Now, the professor was sixty
years old, and had been born two
days before Christmas, so he
thought cf 12, December being the
twelfth month.
“Yes,” said the professor.
“Multiply it by two,,’continued
the king.
“Yes.”
“Add five ”
“Yes,” answered the professor
doing so.
“Now multiply by 50.”
“Yes.”
“Add your age.”
“Yes.”
“Subtract 365.”
“Yes.”
“Add 115.”
“Yes.”
“And now,” said the king,
“might I ask what the result is?”
“Twelve hundred and sixty,”
replied the professor wondering*
ly.
“Thank you,” was the king's
response: “So you were born in
December, 00 years ago, eh? ’
“Why, how in the world do you
know?” cried the professor.
“Why,” retorted the king,
from your answer—l26o. The
month of your birth was the
twelfth, and the last two figures
give your age.”
“Ha, ha, ha!” laughed the
professor. “Capital idea. I’ll
try it on the next person. It’s
a polite way of finding out peo
ple’s ages.”

I wisht I was an elephant,
With nothin' else to do
Except to join in the parade
An' walk an hour or two,
Then take it easy in a tent
While people come and go
An’ crowd around to feed me.
It's the easiest life I know !
I wisht I was an elephant,
To travel round the track
With silk embroidered blankets
To decorate my back,

And his manners ain't so fine,
But lie's naturally lucky,

The readers of this paper will be
pleased t > learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Half’s Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby des
troying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
cdrative powers, that they offer one
