ARE YOU
ONE OF THEM ?
KRK we in iMilur n <lry fronds,
11' notion or gcnt'i'iil stoiv and
a.<k the proprietor to give us gratui
tously of articles stocked upon the
counters or shelves, because we were
both of one political parlv, we would
subject o.urself to ridicule. At first it
might be taken as a joke. To be ac
cepted and considered entertaining a
joker nuist find the idle to aiuiisi.
Busy people have no time for Mich
dilly-dallying during business hours.
AVere we to insist that we meant what
we said we would at once be declared
"crazy," and despatched from the
place by a gentle hand upon our neck
and a foot alive to its duty south of
our trouser buckle.
Of course newspaper men are more
mild aud gentle than others of the
business world, and such actions are
met with kindly greeting and many
times conceeded to. We have our ail -
vertising space for sale just as the
store keepers have their merchandise,
but many—oh, so many times, petty
politicians would impose upon their
best friend by asking for some of that
s,iace. They must be advertised, as
wcmust have victuals and clothing,
to be presentable and victorious, yet
they refuse to pay for their uecessai
i while we are obliged to pay for
all we get, if we do deal with one of
our own political faith.
liven after a political paper has
cared for and advertised one of its
p irty to success, tne effort goes un
appreciated and what printing the
p (litician has invariably is asked to
be done at starvation w ages, or a rake
off is expected. Just here it may be
asked why it is that the Intelligencer,
Ihe hading and best paper, nevei
has any of certain Democratic poli
ticians' patronage. You can surmise.
What ungrateful men are politic
ians, as a rule. If it were, as in years
past and gone, that the office sought the
man, it would be vastly different from
the present, when most any disrepu
table corrupter is supported by the
people.
Are you a petty politician, or are
you a free, open-hearted, appreciative
man, which the office you hold sought
and the newspaper of your party
helped you to get '! And do you re
member the obligations you are under
to the newspaper man when you have
advertising to let, through which
medium you can help repav him for
the many great favors you received '!
IS IT
REALLY FAIR ?
jjf- AST week one dav five poor
vu fishermen, of MclCees Half
Falls, Snyder county, were taken bv
a fish warden and heavily lined for
catching fish in the wide Susquehan
na. Ihe means they employed were
claimed to be illegal, but they were
only capturing the fish to appease the
appetites of themselves aud their
hungry families, which, in all proba
bility, would have soon sueciib tl and
died from a more comleinuable cause,
considered all right by the govern
ment.
L Coal barons and other rich corpo
ration leaders are granted the privi
lege to pollute and depopulate our
State streams of their fishes, but when
a poor fisherman goes forth to catch
a mess of fish for his family with il
legal fishing tackle, he is seized, aud
if unable to pay the heavy fine, is
caused to sutler the ignominy and his
family to bow their heads in shame.
If the Fish Department was as
exact with the avariciously rich cor
porations, which are allowed to freely
aud fully ] oisou even such a large
1) dy of water a* the Susquehanna lo
such an ex en! as to finally kill a 1
on- fishes, us it is with the poor fish
erman, the violation of the fish laws
would be a thing of the past.

An old blasted tree without leaf,

too shrewd to become their prey. If
he desires re-election, it is his, and

The usually cheery face of Mine.
Fontaine, "palmist und card reader,"
was overcast. Even the Invitingly
clean litile room where madaiiie re- '
celved the anr-.ious seekers after wis
dom shared in the pervading gloom.
A crudely drawu hand covered with
cabalistic uiy;u* had become detached
from Uiv wall and lay unheeded in one
corner; the cards by whose aid cotniuy
events were evoked were pushed care
lessly aside. It was evident that mis
fortune had fallen upon this faithful
priceless of tli# future.
Nora McCabe had always been a
wonder at "cnttin' the cards," and It
was when i'at McCabe died (an event
which the cards neglected to mention I,
leaving her with live little children,
that Mine. Fontaine had Sprung Into
existi nee. Having an average amount
of quick Irish wit and more than an
averag.- understanding of human na
ture, Nora had prospered and as Muie.
Foutaine she avoided tragedy and
dealt mostly In romantic and glowing
generalities.
Hut of late the fatej had not shown
inadume the consideration due so faith
ful a follower. There haul been a fall
ing off in tiie number of people who
came to explore the misty paths of the
future under her export guidance.
Four of the children were too young to
do much besides consume unlimited
supplies of bread and butter, und the
day before Jimmy, the eldest, had been
brought home with a broken leg. In
short, the outlook was serious.
"Though It isn't always ye can ex
pect to be bavin' the luck." sighed
Nora, stooping to pick up the hand that
pointed a mutely protesting linger at
her from the corner.
Quite unconscious of tho radiant pic
ture she made against her dull sur
rounding, a girl, tall, graceful, tailor
made, came swiftly along the shabby
street. If her courage almost failed
her, she mode no sign as she walked
steadily on. Ail the girls had been to
Mine. Fontaine. Had she not told Mar
garet Donne that she would be married
within a year, and was not Margaret
even now on her wedding Journey? To
be sure, she had told Louise Henderson
the same thing, and there was not even
an admirer in Lou's horizon; but, then,
every one makes mistakes sometimes,
and Louise always was hopeless. She
did not really believe In it. Oh, dear,
no! But she did so want to know If
John really were very angry. lie might
have known she did not care for that
stupid Captain Carstalrs.
With flushed face and trembling but
determined fingers she pressed the but
ton under the card bearing the legend
"Mine. Fontaine" and soon stowl quak
ing Inwardly, but outwardly serene,
before the door of the modest little flat.
EUyinor ItoMnson was called the
prettiest girl In the Westchester set,
and more critical eyes than madame's
would have brightened at the radiant
vision she made as she entered the lit
tle room and with shlnlug eyes bent
eagerly forward over the well known
table upon which madame's experi
enced Angers bad already placed the
queen of diamonds.
"That's yersclf," explained the wo
man as she deftly shutllcd the cards,
"and this," laying a heart above It, "is
good luck to yerself au' yer wish, an'
here's an offer, an' a foiue offer It Is,
with money too. It looks like a mar
riage offer, an' 'tis from"— Hut whom
It was from must forever remain a
mystery, for a shrill voice from the
next room called niadame, and In her
anxious huste Nora overturned the Ut
ile table, and the fortunes of the queen
of diamonds came to au Ignominious
ending ou the floor.
"I'm that worried I don't know what
I'm doin'," said madame as she came
back, and, half crying, stooped to pick
up the cards. "My Jimmy has his leg
broke, an' him gettin' along so nice an'
Mr. Chetwooil say In* his wagos should
be raised this Saturday comln'."
"Mr. diet wood!" Interrupted the girl
In a sTrained voice. And madame's keen
eyes noted the warm wave of color
that flooded her face.
"Yes, miss," she returned, "Mr. Clict
wood, the lawyer, it was a folne place
for Jimmy, an' him llklu' It an' gettin'
into Mr. Chetwood's ways. An' now
Ids leg's broke, an' no kuowln' when
he'll git another place," she added de
jectedly, and In spite of herself a tear
splashed on the recovered quoen.
The girl rose. "I don't believe 1 care
to have my fortune told today," she
said nervously. "I—l've changed my
mind, but I shall come to see you
again," she said, her blue eyci sweet
with sympathy. She took a bill from
her bag und laid It ou the table.
"Take these, too, for Jimmy," she
said, loosening the violets from her
furs. And with a smile and a qniek lit
tle nod she was gone.
I It was hours later that a tall, broad
( shouldered man knocked at madame's
door and inquired for Jimmy McCabe.
J A few minutes later John diet wood
j was holding Jimmy's grimy little hand
and smiling down on tlie little freckled
face that grinned back at him sheep
ishly.
"We cannot do without Jimmy, Mrs.
McCabe," he sahl pleasantly, "so I shall
depend on you to send him back as
soon as possible." He took some bills
from his pocket and continued: "I want
you to take good care of him. No! No!
That's all right!" as she tried to thank
, him. "You may pay It back when i
Jimmy wins his first or you might *
tell my fortune." He laughed good '
humoredly, looking quizzically rt the 112
' weird hands decorating the little room 1
beyond. t
Madame gasped. Her warm Irish i
heart was full of gratitude to the two <
who had been so good to her. If only
■ she could Co something for tticm!
He watched her with amused Inter- '
est as she slowly spread out the cards (
on the little table. t
"Ye have success to yerself an' yer \
wish," she began In Jhe J hue worn |
formula, "an* (here's a light woman,
the queen of diamonds," she added, her
eyes fastened on the cards.
John Chetwood threw back his head
and laughed delightedly. "I thought It
was always a dark woman," he s;dd.
"She's tall almost as yerself," Nora
went on, "an' It's like one of the saluts
she is, with her sweet face an' eyes as
blue as -as the violets," she continued.
Tho quick start of surprise John Chet
-1 wood gave did not escape madame's
shrewd eyes, and she went on rapidly:
I "She loves ye there's somethln' come
between ye—but she loves ye. Never
mind what's been, say I—go to her;
she's waltln' for ye. I see the weddln'
card."
John Chetwood rose abruptly. "That's
a great fortune. We'll have to look
Into that, Mr. Jimmy,"he said, but his
laughter was forced, and tli«> lines on
his face deepened as ho ran lightly
down the stairs.
He hesitated outside the shabby lit
tle flat. She lived to the north. A few
blocks to the west his friends were
waiting for him. He had tried to keep
away from her. It was evident she
cared for Carstalrs, and he would keep
his disappointment to himself and let
J no knowledge of it shadow her. What
! could that woman know about It?
Nothing! Queer, though, about the vio
lets. No; of course he didn't believe It,
but he squared his shoulders and turn
ed to the north.
MISSOURI RIVER BOATS.
IVli»m of the 01.l g|«|* Wheel em In
(lit* i:«rl> Dn>«.
In the early days there was a regti
lar line of packets between St. Louis
and St. Joseph, all side wheelers, and
the average round trip occupied eight
days. A boat left St. Louis every day
for the Missouri rfver, and as there
were fourteen boats in the line each
boat made a round trip once every two
yeeks during the season. During the
winter the boats ran between St. Louis
and New Orleans.
Coming up the river the boats run
all night, but ingoing down they al
ways laid up as soon as darkness set
In.in going down the river the boats
usually left ot. Joseph early in the
afternoon and laid tip for the night at
Weston, where there was always a lot
of freight to load. The next day they
went to Lexington, the next to Booii
vllle and the next to St. Louis. Occa
sionally during high water a boat
would leave Lexington at daylight and
reach St. Louis In time for breakfast
the next morning.
The boats carried from 200 to 400
passengers on the trip up the river,
counting the immigrants on the deck,
but going back they only had cabin
passengers. The cabin fare from St.
Louis to St. Joseph ranged from $lO
to sls, which Included meals and state
room. The boats were all supplied
with tine rooks, ami the passengers
lived on the best that money could
buy.
Tho average boat carried 500 to COO
tons of freight in iidditiou to pussen
gers. During low wuter freight thut
now costs i! 0 cents u hundred cost S*J.SO
u hundred. The expense of u round
trip from St. Louis to St. Joseph, In
cluding loading and unloading, was es
timated at SI,OOO, and the Income from
cost to $7,000. Each boat carried a
crew of from HO to 100 men. The aver
age value of tin? boats in the line was
probably $45,000 each.
The boats were often on sand bars,
where they sometimes remained for a
day and night, but altogether the time
was made surprisingly well. A pilot
who hud u reputation for keeping his
boat off the bars commanded as high
as ssoo a month. Kacli boat was pro
vided with two pilots, and this expense
usually amounted to from $!>00 to sl,-
000 a month. All a river pilot saved
he put In his watch chaiu. You could
tell a high priced pilot by the size of
the links In his gold watch chain. A
rattling good flrst mute who know how
to handle a boat after It struck a bur
received $250 a month.
Poker was a favorite river amuse
ment, and it was uot au uucommou
sight to see eight or ten games going
at the same time in the uiuln cabin of
a steamboat. And the playing was for
actual money, which was displayed in
staeks on the tables.
Among the famous boats on the river
nt that time were the Kate Kinney, F.
(J. Aubry, Morning Star, John L>. Fer
ry, Sioux City, Omaha, Carrier und the
James 11. Lucas. The last named made
the fastest run In the history of the
river—s9 hours and 22 minutes from St.
Louis to St. Joseph.
How Win en Are Colored.
"Most people think white grapes make
white wine and dark grapes make red
wine," said a visitor. "That is a popu
lar error.
"Red wine is made by fermenting
grape Juice and grape skins together
the skins giving the color, and white
wine is made by fermenting grape
Juice alone.
"The Juice of white and of dark
grapes doesn't dlfTer In hue. In each
sort of grape the juice Is almost color
less, like the weakest lemonade.
"Chumpugnc, one of the dearest of
the white wines, Is made of a grape so
dark as to be nearly black. Hut the
Juice of that nearly black grape Is
quite as pale as the Juice of the blond

Your Life
Currento
The power that gives you j
life and motion is the nerve I
force, or nerve fluid, located in j
the nerve cells of the brain, I
and sent out through the '
nerves to the various organs.
If you are tired, nervous,
irritable, cannot sleep; have
headache, feel study, dull and
melancholy, or have neuralgia,
rheumatism, backache, peri- I
odical pains, indigestion, dys
pepsia, stomach trouble, or the
kidneys and liver are inactive, '
your life-current is weak. \
Power-producing fuel is need- '
ed ; something to increase nerve t
energy—strengthen the nerves.
Dr. Miles' Restorative Ner
vine is the fuel you need. It
feeds the nerves,produces nerve
force, and restores vitality.
"When I beffnn liitlnc r>r. Miles'

pradually grew so w. ale that 1 wis
unable to sit up. The spells would t<
commence with coM chills, and I n
