At a recent dinner given in honor of a certain man 0 f letters, Hamil- certain man ton Wright Mable, who was one of the speakers of the evening, said, in the course of his remarks, that a pes simist might be defined as a person wpo has the choice between two evils and selects both, says the New York Evening Sun. A Columbia student who happened to attend the dinner sat the next morning under Brof. Brander Matthews, who deliv ered a characteristic lecture, with statistics, on everything in general. During the lecture Mr. Matthews remarked with the air of a man con scious of tossing off an original jew el of epigramatic wisdom: “You know, gentlemen, we may define a pessimist as a man who has the choice between two evils and takes both.” The student, who was certain that Mr. Matthews had not been present the evening before, looked the pro fessor up at the Conclusion of the lecture, saying: “Your definition of a pessimist struck me forcibly, but I heard Mr. Mable give the same one last night.” ‘Is that so?” replied Mr. Mat thews suavely. “He forestalled me by half a day then. We both heard it from Mark Twain two evenings ago.” One Term for The President.

Formerly most opals came from Hungary, and more recently from Mexico. In 1889 an Australian hunt er, while pursuing a wounded kan garoo, found an opal. Since that time Australia has yielded nearly two million dollars’ worth of opals. There are some six million Protes tants in Russia who enjoy religious liberty with the stipulation that they must be born of Protestant parents and must not proselyte. Preaching in nine languages is heard every Sunday in St. Petersburg in the Protestant churches. To make the cans for a year’s out put of Maine canned corn will re-; quire sixty thousand boxes of tin plate, weighing over six and a half, million pounds. Tinplate is usually purchased or contracted for in ad vance, and few factories have been caught napping this year. In less than twenty years England has fallen from first place in the pro duction of iron and steel to third, America and Germany now leading in the order named. America’s in crease in production from 1889 to 1899 was six times greater than that of England’s, while Germany’s was four times, greater. Eighteen hundred and seventy- four Sunday schools were organized in destitute places by the American Sunday School Union last year. Be sides these, 594 were reorganized and 9,138 old schools were visited and otherwise aided. About $146,- 101 was received for missionary work and 222 men were employed. avenge truth betrayed and pledges broken, and when the suffrage shall be altogether free and uricorrupted, the full realization of. a government by the people will be at hand. And of all the means to this end, not one would, in my judgment, be more ef fective than an amendment to the constitution disqualifying the presi dent from re-election. “When we consider the patronage of this great office, the allurements of power, the temptation' to retain public office once gained, and, more than all, the availability a party finds in hn incumbent whom a horde office-holders, with a zeal bom benefits received and fostered by the hope of favors yet to come, stand ready to aid with money and trained political service, we recognize in the eligibility of a president for re-elec tion a most serious danger to that calm, deliberate and intelligent polit ical action which must characterize a government by the people DOMESTIC SEWiMI MACHINES, To Drop Wealthy Pensioners.

The Williams Buggy Company, A Physician Testifies. “I have taken Koaol Dyspep sia Cure and have, never used any thing in my life that did me the good that did,” says County Phy sician Geo. W- Scroggs of Hall County, Ga. “Being a physician I have precribed it and found it to give the best results.” If ‘the food you eat | remains undigested in your stomach it decays there and poisons the system. You can prevent this by dieting but that means starvation. Kodol Dys pepsia Cure digests what you eat. You need suffer from neither dys pepsia nor starvation.

The House of Representatives has announced itself on the pension ques tion in no unmistakable terms by passing, by a vofe of 89 to 53, the bill by Mr. Harvard of Dooly, which provides that no person who owns more ihan $1,000 worth of property or has an annual income of more than $300 shall receive a pension from the state. This action was taken in spite of the adverse report from the commit tee on pensions, and is, perhaps, the most important matter acted on so far at this session. While the bill does not in terms put pensions on the indigent basis, its effect is prac tically the same, since if it becomes a law it will cut off from the pension rolls almost all of those who do not need the money. There was an attempt made to fil ibuster against the measure, but it was prom ptly cut off by Speaker Pro Tern Morris, who was in the chair when the measure went through.— Ha wkinsville* Dispatch. A Southern medicine concern has just sent outj through the United States mail, thirty-two car loads of almanacs for next year. - And yet some people have the nerve to con tend that advertising is a waste of money. This same concern has an appropriation of $75,000,000 for their newspaper advertising for next year. Reliable And Gentle. “A pill’s a pill,” says the saw. But there are pills and pills.
