Dinnis Russell, a dwarf who was brought here from Sharon and placed in the County Home as a poor charge, is apparently the happiest man in the place. For hours at a time he will sing and amuse himself by talking to a water spigot, chair or any piece of furniture. The upper portion of his body is of normal size, but his legs are only about twelve inches in length, and his feetare small. Hecannot walk, and has to be tied in a chair to keep him from falling off. Although Russell is but thirty years of age, his hair is gray and he bears the appearance of a man of fifty.—Potter Enterprise. Figure it out. Michigan Patron: "A banker saunt ering home for his dinner saw a §lO bill on the curbstone. Of course he picked it up and took the number in order to find the owner. While at home his wife remarked that the butcher had sent in a bill amounting to $lO. The only money he had with him was the bill he had found, which he gave to her and she paid the butcher. The butcher paid it to a farmer for a calf, and the farmer paid it to a merchant, who in turn paid to a clerk, who in turn paid to a washer women, and she owing the banker a note of $lO went to the bank er and paid the note. The banker re cognized the note as the one he had found, and which, up to date, had paid §SO of debt. On careful examination he discovered the bill was counterfeit. Now will some of our financial friends tell us what has been lost by the trans action, and by whom?". Railroad News. Tue Western Pennsylvania railroad was chartered at Harrisburg last Mon day for a new lino from Red Bank, Pa., to Enon, Pa. The link will con nect the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago railway, one of the lines west of Pittsburg, with the Philadelphia and Erie route, now a part of the Pennsylvania system at Driftwood. The estimated cost is $6,000,000, in cluding several bridges and tunnels. Preliminary surveys have been made and acquirement of rights will follow. By means of the cut-off, through freight for the west will be deflected around the congested Pittsburg dis trict. Double tracking of the low grade division and the Philadelphia and Erie as far as Harrisburg, may follow. The lieautifal Snow. It takes three cloudy days to bring a j heavy fall of snow. If snowflakes increase in size a thaw ( will follow. If there is no snow in January there will be more snow in March and April. The more snow, the more healty the | season. A snow year, a rich year.

The best record in attendance was made by the High School, 98 per cent. Miss Cleary again leads the grides below with 65 per cent and Miss Bair is sacond with 91 per cent.

Kodol supplies the natural juices of diges tion and does the work ot the stomach, re laxing the nervous tension, while the in flamed museles of that organ are allowed to rest and heal. Kodol digests what you eat and enables the stomach and digestive organs to transform all food into rich, red blood. It. C. Dodson. One Hundred Dollars a Box. Is the value H. A.

It is not always the brightest boy in school that makes t)ie greatest success in the world. He is generally the favorite of the teachers, and gets along the fastest, j but his very brilliancy often proves a great drawback to his future career. ; Much is expected of him, and when put to the test he is very likely to ! prove a disappointment. "Give the ; | dull boy a chance" is the advice of I Prof. A. E. Winship, one of the leading educators of the Buckeye State, i "Watch him closely. Don't think be cause he is dull he is unworthy of your { time and consideration, for in your ! dull boy may lurk the possibilities ofj the brilliant and successful business , man." This is good advice, but above j all the dull boy should never be dis couraged. Let him recognize the fact that the teacher is interested in him ■ and let his parents encourage him all j they can. It is a mistake to ridicule him or make his backwardness promi- | nent. Give him a fair show and lot | him plod along. The highest goals j are conquered by simply sticking straight to one thing with the end always in view, and in this respect the I I dull boy often proves a wonder and a ' surprise to every one.
