THE GIRL OF THE PEEIOD.
The Texas Anvil, in speaking of
the girls and* their many lovely
traits, has this to say:
•‘If tlieie is anything we know less
about than we think we do it is the
girl; and of this the girl is glad, for
there is nothing she hates to be
known about her so bad as the truth.
We have been acquainted with her
for a long time and watched her
pranks from afar, seen her cut the
“piueon wing” and knock the “back
step” in the back yard, when she
thought she had no spectator; but
still we don’t know her
From the time she is big enough
io swing on the gate and tie a ribbon
in a double bowknnt she begins to
locate a sweetheart, and she keeps
this up until lie is located in the
back yard exercising his talents dis
seeling stove wood.
She may lie a little dull on math¬
ematics, but invariably solves the
problem of putting a No. 5 foot in a
No. 3 shoo.
She will wear out twofold dresses
running around to find out how to
make a new one in Hie latest style.
Slit: will break the point off .her
brother's knife making a crack to
peep at the strangers „wltenl they
come visiting.
She will walk three blocks out of
the wav t<* get a peep at her beau,
and then pass by without looking at
him.
She will talk with yon two hunt's
without being aide to iepeat'a word
you have said, but will know how
long vou have worn your duds and
how many buttons have lost their
grip. with
Mie will attend church, listen
absorbed interest to eloquent and
pit belie sermons, then return home
and expatiate upon the horrible lit
ot .Miss Snow’s new basque.
She will go'the table, mince over
d iier.cies with t lie most fastidious
laMe, tli* n s’ip back in the kitchen
lid then eat a raw potato.
She will wear out her best shoes
aneing all day, and then attend
a bail at night and complain ol be
ing out of practice.
She will spend all night wiitmg a
carefulIv worded letter, ill the mo t
precise hand, to her Simon Suggs,
then scratch off a page to her sister
that Old Harry couldn't read.
She will be the most devout creat¬
ure on earth, and bale the earth that
Saliie Grimes walks on.
She will be industrious and eco¬
nomical for a month, then spend her
savings for a red ribbon.
She will slouch around the house
fora week making preparation to
look neat on Sunday,
She will flirt with the best young
men in the ne’ghb..rhood, and finally
marry some knotty headed Inn
Crow.
“Why do the hcatlien rage?” said
the minister to his congregation A
Montana man who was dozing in his
seat waked up enough to snort out:
•‘Probably that durned agent has
been putting too much water in the
reservation whisky.”
She didn't mean ! 1 'h•> , w.-v. of
course but young DeQuiHe, haring
succeeded, after r ears of effort, i’
getting a “poem” acc-epttd by Puck,
felt quite hurt by his wife’s glcelVl
cry: ••Wiiat! Ten do'bir« for that!
'J’iiey do pay well, don’t they?”
Now doth the old folks hug the fire,
Their shivering to smother,
While safe within the parlor, snug,
Tiie young folks hug each other.
“Why do the heathen rage?” said
the minister to his congregation. A

out: “Pobabh’ that darned agent

Mr. D I. Wilcoxon, of Horse Cave,
Ky., says he was lew many years,
badly' afflicted with Phthisic, also
Diabetes; the pains were almost un
endurable nad would , sometimes al ,

He tried Electric Blitters and got re
lief from the first bottle and after
taking six bottles, was entirely cured
and had gained in flesh eighteen
pounds. Says be positively believes

BILL NYE’S BOYHOOD
Why EeDoas Not Particularly Year* To
/' he a Boy Again.
If I /ere ahoy wilH again, endowed
with the same passion for
77 ons in the dark
i lie moon, I would no don lit fall a
victim to that overmastering passion
as I did before, but looking at it as
I do now, I would be wiser. Boys,
cannot however, have the mature
judgment of manhood without the
experience and the rheumatism that
go with it. So it . . is better that . in
our childhood we may be able to eat
a l^w turnip with safety, and know
something later on in life. I notice
a great, change in myself while com
paring my present condition with
that ol joyous boyhood. Then I had
no sense, but I bad a good digestion.
The hurrying years have cavorted
over m 3 ’ sunny head till the}’ have
worn it smooth, but they have left a
good deal yet for me to learn. I am
stiil engaged in learning during the
day and putting arnica on my expe¬
rience at night.
Childhood is said to be the most
gladsome period in our lives, and in
some respects this statement may be
regarded as reliable, but it is not all
joy. I have had just as much fun in
later years as I did in boyhood,
though the people with whom I have
been thrown in contact claim that
their experience has been different.
I hope they do not mean anything
personal by that.
I do sometimes wish that I could
lie a boy again, but I smother that
wish on account of my parents.
What they need is rest and change
of scene. They still enjoy children,
but they would like a chance to se
lect the children witli whom they as
sac i ate.
My parents were blessed with five
bright-eyed and beautiful little hoys,
three qf whom grew up. and by flint
in -niis became adults. I am in I bat
condition myself. I am the oldest
of the family with the exception ol’
mv parents. I nm still that way.
My early life was rather tempestu
ms in places, occasionally flecked
with sunshine, but more frequently
with retribution. I was m>t a very
good roadster when young, and so
retribution was ’most always just in
the act of over taking me. While
outraged justice was getting in its
work on me, the other boys escaped
1 I 1 rough a very small aperture in the
fence.
This is another reason why I do
not yearn to be a a boy again.
When we ran away from school to
catch chillis, and when we built a
fire to cook them anil the fire got in
to the tall, dry grass and binned
four miles of fence, and sixteen tons
of hay fora gentleman for whom to
imped put out the fire, the other boys es
and have so remained ever
since.
A just retribution has never had
auy difficulty in overtaking me
and walking up and down tny r wish
bone.
When a party of us had been en
gaged in gathering caster eggs in the
barn of a gentleman who and was he away
from home at the time, re
turned just as we had filled our
pockets with tiie choicest vintage
of his sunkissed liens, the other boys
escaped while I was occupying the
attention of the dog, and I had tc
slide out of the second story of the
barn. It is still in my mind as I
write. I wore my father’s vest at
that time, and it was longer than
was necessary. M 3 ' father was
larger than I at that time, for I was
only nine Real's of age and had not
arrived at my full stature. In slid
ing down the batten I discovered
that the upper end of it was loose,
and that my flowing vest had slipped
over it, so that when I got down
about foui feet I hung with the
board buttoned inside my bosom and
lbe scram bled egg oozing out of my
knicker-bockers.
II,e batten had sprung back
against the barn in such a w®y as
to prevent ,ny unbuttoning my vest
and while! hung there on the sue
of the barn like a coon skin the pro
prietorcame around and accused me
of prematurely gathering his eggs.
I had heard truth very highly
spoken oi by my people, who dab
bled in it more or less, and aa \ re
solved to try it in this instance. So
I admitted that such was tiie case,
and it was tiie best thing I could
have done, for the man said as 1 had
been so frank witli him lie would
take me down as soon as he got his
other work done, and he was as good
ns his word.
After lie had milked nine cows an,d
fed nine calves lie came around with
a ladder and took me down. He al
so spanked me and set the dog on
me, but I did not mind that, for I
was accustomed to it. To hang on
the side of a barn, however, like an
autumn leaf, trying to kick large
holes in the atmosphere, is disagree
able.
The incident . cast ± a gloom o'er mj
whole life. It has also reconciled
me to the awful decree that I can
never be a boy again. Bull Nye.
I waa troubled with chronic ca¬
tarrh and gatherings in the head;
was deaf at times, had discharges
