A business man in an Oklahoma town got mad at the editor of a local paper about something which appeared in the paper, and notified the editor that he would in future have his printing done at a lob office where they didn't have a paper to roast everybody. He thought, of course, the paper would have to quit business, but it kept on going. In about two months the man's daughter was married and they had a big blow out, but not a line appeared In the paper. Later on his wife gave a big reception to some visitors, but not a line appeared in the paper. Later on the man's youngest child died, but not a line appeared in the paper. The next fall a mass meeting was held in town to see about some public improvements and this business man made a big speech. The meeting was written up in full except this man's speech. This was s skipped. Then the business man called and asked the editor what he had it in for him about. "You got mad last year, if you remember, and said you were going to have your work done at the job print ing office, so I thought I'd just let your job printer print the account of your daughter's wedding, your wife's recep tion, your child's obituary and your speech."—Enid, Kan., Events. r- Millionaires' Poor Stomach. The worn-out stomach of the over fed millionaire is often paraded in the public prints as a horrible example of the evils attendant on the possession of great wealth. But millionaires are not the only ones who are afflicted with bad stomachs. The proportion is far greater among the toilers. Dys pepsia and indigestion are rampant among these people,and they suffer far worse tortures than the millionaire un less they avail themselves of a stand ard medicine like Green's August Flower, which has been a favorite household remedy for all stomach troubles for over thirty Ave years.

Emporium, Pa., August Ist, 1903. 24-tf. Hew Guillen JuHtlce, A comical vindication of the rights of property among the savages of New Guinea was witnessed by a missionary, the Rev. James Chalmers. Service was Just beginning In the little church when a native boy came In dressed with what he considered great magnificence. In a shirt. As the savages were accus tomed togo nearly naked, this garment made the hoy very conspicuous. The shirt had once belonged to some white man, and tho Importance It gave the present wearer was tremendous. But when his glory was at Its height a bigger boy appeared, hot with rage and carrying a Jacket. He fell upon the first lad and began stripping off the shirt. The rest of the congregation, un derstanding at once that the rightful owner had arrived, gave him not only sympathy, but practical aid. They rose to their feet, and those who were near by took part In the stripping process. Presently the true owner was invested in shirt and Jacket, the congregation cooled, and the service went on. Her LMt Breath. I heard a story the other day which is probably as old as the hills, though I never had tho luck to hear It before. It was of a somewhat lengthy railway Journey In very warm weather. An elderly lady, seated In one corner of the carriage, was provided with an In dia rubber cushion for her greater com fort, but unfortunately, owing to the heat and continued pressure, the cush ion suddenly exploded. The old lady was In despair, even to tears, over the misfortune to the wind bng, and again and again reverted to her misfortune. "Tut, woman," said a commercial traveler In another corner of tho car riage, "it's not worth making a fuss about. You will get It repaired in town for about 18 pence." "It's no' that I'm vexed aboot—lt's no' the price. That's easy sorted. But the last time that bag was blawn up It wis by Aunty Jean, almaist wl' her very last breath, an' that canna bo restored Glasgow Times.
