Railroad Engineer
Testifies to Benefits Received From
D?. B Yes' Remedies.
ORIGIN OF SLANG-
James "Whitcomb Riley’s
“The First Peach.”
T here is no more responsible position
on eartb than that of a railroad engin
eer. On his steady nerves, clear brain,
bright eye and perfect self command, de
pend the safety of the train and the live3
of its passengers. Dr. Miles* Nervine and
other remedies are especially adapted to
keeping the nerves steady, the brain clear
and the mental faculties unimpaired.
Engineer F. W. McCoy, formerly of 1323
Broafiv.v.y, Council Bluffs, but now residing
-at 3111 Humboldt St., Denver, writes that he
“suffered for years from constipation, caus
ing sink, nervous and bilious headaches and
was fully restored to health by Dr. Mile&*
Nerve & .iver? 11s. I heartily recommend
Dr. Miles’ Remedies.”

Hon Hector D. "Lane.
The death of Hon. Hector D.
Lane removed one of the farmer’s
best and ablest friends and one of
the South's most distinguished
citizens.
He left the practice of law to
devote all his time and energies to
agricultural interests and to the
subject of farming in every possi
ble direction. He became com-
misicner of agriculture in 1891,
and wt? also a prominent member
of the Farmers’ Alliance. At the
time cf his death he was the pres
ident of Jie Southern Cotton
Growers’ Association, and it is be
lieved the work he did in connec
tion with that association led to
the stroke of paralysis that result
ed in his untimely death.
• Mr. Lane was not 50 years*old
at the time of his death, but he
had giyvo twenty years of his life
to the uplifting of agriculture and

Dr. Tockerman, editor of The
Poem Workman, Cleveland, has taken
some pains to collect and compile

Some ladies were discussing the i Court on this subject, and gives to
origin of certain slang phrases, | the Washsngton Post as the result
and one of the group who never J 0 f his ’investigations, the follow-
used any but the most perfect jing:
English, said that she had become j 1. Subscribers "who do not give

these. She said that with the aid considered as wishing to renew
of some adepts in slauology she their subscription,
had succeeded in finding some sim- 9. If subscribers order the dis-
ple or remote reason for the exis
tence of some of these current ex
pressions, but said that no ques
tioning had ever found any origin
for “You’re talking through your
hat!” It is said that the slang
of to-day becomes the language of
to-morrow, and if this is true, (let
us hope it is not,) time is not
wasted in keeping in hearing—not
speaking—distance of some strong
phrases. Apropos of this we won-
*der if Mr. Riley’s poem has any
responsibility for that pet compli
ment of the up-to-date youth—
“She’s a peach!”
Certainly if such is the case, the
expression has at least a beautiful
origin, as the following dainty
verses prove:
the first peach.
The ripest peach is the highest on the
tree;
And so her love beyond the reach of me
Is dearest in my sight. Sweet breeze,
bow ,
Her heart down to me, where I worship
now.

We often hear of the wonderful
imaginary power of the poet'a
mind, and we are prepared to be
lieve in it to any degree when we
remember that the author of
“Home, Sweet Home,” never had

continuance of their periodical,
the publisher may continue to
send them until all arrearages are
paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or re
fuse to take their periodicals from
the postoffice to which they are
directed, they are responsible un
til they have settled their bills,
and ordered them discontinued.
4. If the subscribers move to
other places without informing the
publisher, and the papers are sent
to the former address, they are
held responsible.
5. The courts have decided that
refusing to take periodicals from
the office, or removing and leaving
them uncalled for, is prima facie
evidence of intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at
the end of the time, if they don't
wish to continue taking it, other
wise the publisher is authorized to
send it, and the subscriber will be
held responsible until an express
notice, with payment of all arrear
age is sent to the publisher.
The latest postal laws are such
that newspaper publishers can
arrest anyone for fraud who takes
a paper and refuses to pay for it.
Under this law the man who al
lows his subscription to run along
for some time unpaid and then
orders it discontinued or orders
the postmaster to mark it “Re
fused,” and have a postal card
sent notifying the publisher, leaves
himself liable to arrest and fine,
the same as for theft.
