filvos Advice.
When President Lincoln Issued the
emancipation proclamation it excited
at onee a great deal of discussion in
the army. <»n one occasion, Ilenry
Clay Trumbull, says his biographer,
Wits going through the camp of the
regiment of which he was chaplain,
when he was hailed by a sergeant and
some men who were arguing the sub
ject.
"Chaplain," asked the sergeant, "do
you think President Lincoln had any
right to issue that proclamation?"
"I suppose he thought he had," re
plied Mr. Trumbull.
"Well, I suppose a soldier's got a
right to hold his own opinion, hasn't
he?"
"Oh, yes, certainly he has," an
swered the chaplain—"that Is, if he'll
take care and hold 'em, and not al
ways be slinging them 'round careless
ly befo-e others."—Rochester Herald.
Canadian ffmiiU of Snake*.
A curious. thing about Canadian
forests is (hat there are no snakes,
and even from a description the Indian
guides did not seem to understand
what a snake would be like.
Fishing all through Canada is as
good as the hunting, and should one
fail to bag :i moose he is fully recom
pensed for the trip by the abundance
of other gauie, Including bear and deer.
There is a weird melancholy about
Canadian forests, with their hundreds
of small lakes and livers scattered here
and there, and although the scenery
never rises to the magnificent, there is
something haunting, aside fvom the
sport in it, that draws the hunter back
season after season. Canada is filled
with legends mostly of Indian origin,
and all of them interesting to a de
gree, especially when related by one
of the Indian guides who can be in
duced to talk.—Leslie's Weekly.
Alabama Politics Cheap.
Alabama is represented In the upper
house of congress by two of the old
est' members of that body, Senator
Morgan is 82, Senator Pcttus 85, but
both are still wide-awake and active
men.
Not long ago Mr. Morgan was
chosen by the Democratic primary con
volitions of his state to the senate for
another term. In compliance with the
law the senator made an affidavit, de
claring that this re-election had cost
him only SOO, which sum he had paid
to tho Democratic state committee.
When asked if that was the regular
expense of an election as senator from
Alabama, Mr. Morgan replied: "Not
always so cheap. My colleague Fct
tus's election cost him S7O. The old
fox! I wish it had cost him 8100."
Tills is almost convincing evidence
that Alabama is just the state for the
poor man who lias a taste for politics.
Always Shows I'olitciier.ri.
The most polite man has been found
in Ilobcrt Wilder of Clarksburg, W.
Vn. He has never been known to say
a cross word to anybody, and he is re
spected highly by his relatives, which
is saying a great deal.
When Wilder was held up by a high
wayman near Dugau'.s dam. Mr. Wilder
handed hover $13.25 and apologized for
not having more with him.
Wilder smiles when a person tramps
on his corn, and congratulates his wife
on her discernment when she calls him
names.
Taken ill one day, he insisted upon
telephoning the undertaker, expressing
regret at the trouble he might cause
hhn.—Philadelphia North America.
Uluke* Fun for Neighbors.
Virgil P. Kline, lawyer of Cleveland,
in an address upon "Ambition," said:
"Ambition is on excellent thing.
Without it the world would not
progress. Hut there are worthy and
unworthy ambitions, silly and wise
ones.
"Then there are the peculiar, the dis
tinctive ambitions, such as we see in
chilhood.
"Thus t once knew a little boy who
had an ambition to bo a letter carrier,
and, finding in a cedar chest in the
attic a great bundle of love letters that
his mother had been preserving since
tho days of her courtship, ho packed
them in a leather school satchel and
distributed them from house to house
throughout tho neighborhood.

Origin of Word Ilurricans.
"Typhoon" is by no means tho only
Word for n storm that has come to
the English language through Portu
guese and Spanish. Others are" tor
nado" and "hurricane," which .Shakes
peare could still write "hurricano."
Old-time Englishmen, at any rate,
spelled the last word in at least as
many ways as Shakespeare and otliei
people spelled his name, an some of
the spellings indicate frantic attempts
to make the word suggest a derivation
intelligible to the English mind. Of
such are "furieanc," "hurlccan," "Hero
cane" and "Harry-Cain." Even "hur
ricane" was finally adopted, no doubt,
as suggesting "hurry." The original
was the Carib "hurncan," or "flira
can." the navigators of Portugal and
Spain having been instrumental only
In bringing it to England from the
west, as they brought "typhoon" from
the east.

SALES ARE ENORMOUS
Cooper Preparations Leading Topic in Cin
cinnati—Callers at Young Man's Head
quarters Interviewed.
CINCINNATI, ()., Jr.n. 30. The most j
interesting feature of the enormous
sale ot the of Stooper preparations, now
going on in this city, is what tho medi- j
cines are Retually accomplishing
among the people of Cincinnati.
At the commencement of his visit
here Mr. Cooper prophesied that dur- j
ing the later part of his stay he would !
receive hundreds of callers daily who !
come simply to thank him for what j
tho preparations had done. Ho also
stated that stomach trouble is the
foundation for H great many diseases
and that his New Discovery, as it is
called, would prove very effective in
all cases of rheumatism simply by
getting the stomach in working order, j
That this prophecy has been fulfilled j
cannot be doubted after a half hour ■
spent at the young man's headquarters
listening to what his callers have to
say.
A reporter, who watched to ascer
tain, if possible, some light on the
reasons for the immensity of Cooper's
success interviewed about twenty of
his callers yesterday afternoon. The
statements made by those seen indi
cate that physicians who claim that
Cooper is merely a passing fad, have
not looked into the facts.
Some of these statements were as
follows: Miss Sallie Middleton living
at 1057 Central Ave , upon being ques
tioned, said:
•'I have been troubled with general j
weakness, dizziness, headache, sleep- j
lessness and stomach disorders for a j
number of years, suffering all the time 1
with my kidneys and back. 1 had tried ;
a number of medicines and visited sev- !
era! doctors but none helped me. I
heard on all sides of these Cooper
remedies and decided to try them, i
Any one who says that they are not
wonderful medicines does 110 c know
what t'ney are talking about. After
I used tho first bottle, I noticed a de
cided improvement. I have taken three
bottles of the New Discovery »and I
now feel as well as I ever have in my

What la Socialism?
A debating society in Manayunk of
fered last week a prize of $5 for the
fcest definition of socialism.
Among the definitions submitted
were the following:
"Socialism means that no man has
a right to starve to death where mil
lions are suffering from indigestion."
"Socialism is other people's money."
"Socialism is the selfishness under
neath trying to annihilate the selfish
ness on top."
' socialism is the revolution of the
stomach."
"Socialism is envy legitimatized."
The following definition is the cue
that gained the $5 prize:
"Socialism is a combination of ef
forts and theories tending to establish
legally among all mankind the great
est possible equality of wealth or mis
ery."—Philadelphia Bulletin.
Chilling Thought.
"Yes," said the high Russian oflical,
"I keep very good hours sit all times."
"Indeed," replied the interviewer.
"I suppose you believe In that old
maxim. 'lSarly to bed, early to rise?'"
"Yes. but—er—please don't put it
that way."
"Why not?"
"Well, it sounds too suggestive of
some fine putting a bomb under the
bed."

done for years, and I am happier than
1 have been for a long time. I have
come here to thank Mr. Cooper for
what he has done for mo."
Tho statement of Mrs. M. E. Emer
son living 011 630 West Court street,
was as follows:
"I have suffered with stomach trou
ble and constipation for a year or so
When I ate I would have bloated
spells, sour stomach, fermentation,
bad taste in my mouth. In the morn
ing, I was as tired as when I Avent to
bed. I had a dull pain in the lower
part of my back. I liavo taken almost
one bottle of the New Discovery and
I am so wonderfully improved that I
have come down here to thank Mr.
Cooper in person and obtain more of
the medicine."
Another statement was made by Mr
E. Luken living at 1006 Gest street,
who said: "I have been a sufferer with
rheumatism for several years I could
not walk or stand on my feet when
Mr. Cooperr came to Cincinnati.
Nothing helped me in any way and I
despaired of finding relief. I was in a
goneral rundown condition, also, and
had some stomach trouble. Hearing
of his wonderful work my father con
sulted him regarding my case and pur
chasd a bottle of his New Discovery,
After I had finished that one bottle I
was able to walk down town and see
him myself."
"I have continued to take this won
derful medicine and I am now with
out a sign of rheumatism. My gen
eral health is also greatly improved
and I have not felt so well for years
I would not have believed that there
was a medicine on earth that would
do what this has done for me. I am
so much happier that I am very grate
ful to the man that has made it pos
sible for me to regain my health. He
| has tho most wonderful medicine that
: I know anything about."
Other statements taken from those
who had previously used the medi
cines seem to prove that Cooper's
j success throughout the country is gen
uine.

The prodigal son stood in the door
way after liis long absence. "I have
come, dad," ho said, "with a reformed
conscience and reformed disposition."
Tiie old gentleman shouted himself
