Suggests*! by • Lady.
“Let me have five two-cent stamps,
please," said u lady to the polite young
man behind the counter In the post
office.
“Yesaum." he said, handing them
out.
“Can’t you let me have them In one
piece?” she added.
•“Certainly, ma'am.” said the young
man. “Can 1 send them home foi
youf’
“Oh, no; 1 don’t live far away, and
1 am going straight home. I wouldn’t
put you to the trouble.”
“No trouble at all,” said the polite
official. "1 haven’t very much to do
today, and I could easily spare an
hour.”
“Very much obliged,” said the lady,
entitling sweetly. “Dear me,” she add¬
ed. putting on a stamp, "what a bother
it ts to stamp tetters! Why can’t we
scud letters and let the postotfiee send
in their bill ouee a month?"
“They might Just as well," said the
obliging young man sympathizing!}-,
“i’ll men!ton the fact in my uext re¬
port to Washington.”
“Will yon? How nice! But you
mustn’t mention my name. Say the
Idea was suggested by a lady.”
Catching a Bride,
Among certain Siberians the bride¬
groom la not permitted to have a wife
until he can catch her. But they do
not give him a fair race In the open.
The’ bride, surrounded by her female
friends, awaits him In a big tent. As
soon na sbe sees him sbe runs off.
He follows like flippomenes after At¬
lanta. But instead of obstacles being
thrown In the way of the bride they
are thrown across the path of the
bridegroom. The pursuing groom falls
over old wamen, chairs, tables, stones
and Ashing rods or is tripped up by
ropes. Only when it Is feared he
might give up and sulk and go away
without the fleeting lady is he permit¬
ted to overtake her. Then as she falls
into his outstretched arms it may be
imagined she utters some equivalent
of “This is so sudden!”
A Live Steak.
“It is a mistake,” said the president
of the New York Walters’ club, ‘‘to
think that nn Englishman always
wants his beef excessively ram As a
matter of fact, the English like their
beef better done than we do. I once
saw a waiter,” he continued, “serve an
English duke with u cut of very, very
rare sirloin. The duke looked closely
at the slice of bright red meat Then
he said:
"‘Walter, just send for the butcher,
will you?’
" ‘The butcher, sir?’ the waiter stam¬
mered.
“ *Yes,’ said the duke. ‘This beef
doesn’t seem to he quite dead yet’ ’’
Chariotts Bronte’s Last Tribute.
“He will not separate us—we have
been so buppyl” These were the last
words of Charlotte Bronte when, hav¬
ing become Mrs. Nicholis and having
lived with her husband only nine
months, death came to snatch the cup
of domestic felicity from the lips of
the happy pair, A low, wandering de
llrlum came on. Wakening for an in
staut from this stupor, she saw her
husband's woe worn face und caught
the Kouud of some murmured words
of prayer that God would spare her.
“Ob,” she whispered, “I am not going
to die, am 1? He will not separate us
—we have been so happy!”
Ths Words That Won.
In Lomlou one of the weekly papers
offered a prize for the best list of
strong words to number teu. The an
iMHincement specified that but ten
words would be considered from any
one person and a committee of literary
men would select from the numbers
offered the ten strongest words in the
English language.
These are the words that won: Hate,
blood, hungry, dawn, coming, gone,
love, dead, alone, forever.

A Paying Investment.
Mr. John White, of 88 High¬
land Ave.,Houiton, Maine, says:
“Have been troubled with a
cough every winter and spring.
Last winter I tried many adver¬
tised remedies, but the cough
continued until I bought a 50c.
bottle of Dr. King’s New Discov¬
ery ; before that was half gone,
the cough was all gone. This
winter the same happy result has
followed ; a few doses once more
banished the annual cough. Iam
now convinced that Dr. King’s
New Discovery is the best of all
cough and lung remedies.” Sold
under guarautee at Arrowood &
Rouse’s store. 50c. and $1.00.

Jefferson Davis’ Ambition.
Jefferson Davis was a man of moat
sincere conviction and courageous ac¬
tion, and when the Southern Confeder¬
acy was about to be organized his sin¬
gle ambition was the command of the
Confederate army. This 1 bad from
his own lips ut his residence at Beau¬
voir, Miss., some lifleen years after
the war. He lohl me that when he
started for Montgomery. Aia.. when
the movement began for the organi¬
zation of the Confederacy he hoped to
be called to the command of the army,
but before he reached Montgomery he
was advised of his election as pro
vlsiouitry president. When he reached
the new capital of the Confederacy
be found it impossible to change condi¬
tions, and he was compelled to accept
the presidency, and he entered upon
that duty as conscientiously as any
public man ever entered upon an of¬
ficial career.—Colonel A. K. McClure

J)nss received from the priests of the

that ill order to ohftilu the rank of

ends of Ids lingers under the eyes of

Low Necked Dresses,
hi the early days of Pennsylvania
there was a law. as we learn from
documents in the state department,
which stated as follows: “That If any
while female of ten years or upward
should npi»ear in any public street,
lane, highway, church, courthouse, tav¬
ern. bail, theater or any other place
of public resort with naked shoulders
—e.. low necked dresses—being able
to purchase necessary clothing, she
shall forfeit and pay a fine of not less
than $100 nor more than $200.”
