The dissolute French count who lias made the life of Anna Gould one pro longed misery, was too ill to appear iu court last Saturday, so that the hear- j iug iu an effort to briug about a re couciliatiou was postponed for two weeks.

The grand jury of Blair county has mado a departure by recommend ing that the county commissioners compel the Pennsylvania Railroad Compauy to pay the couuty at least $1.50 a day for each person maintain ed at the almshouse who is taken there after having met with au accident along the railroad.

Running about Bninbridge street between Fourth aud Fifth every day of the week is a freak in the shape of a three-legged yellow dog. Three limbs are perfectly developed, while the fourth, the "lucky" left hind leg, is only a rudiment, a tiny paw, with well-develojied claws, grown fast to the body. The animal ap pears not the least bit concerned over the absent member, but gets about in a style that would bo the envy of any man with a wooden leg. Sort of a hop, step and a jump it is. His own er, an Italian boy, says "Triplets," as he calls him, was born that way. A man who has been gathering statistics ou the subject asserts that profanity is becoming more and more common among women and extends even to women of good social station and apparent refinement. This earn est statistican has gathered some figures worthy of a Carroll I). Wright. "Only today, while crossing the slushy streets," he said, "I heard four different women say 'D—n, and they said it loudly and firmly, too. One woman said it when her foot slipped and weut into a puddle to the top of her shoe. Another said it when a car she had signated to stop did so directly iu front of the dee|x:st pool of slush and water ou the street. Couldn't hardly blame her for that, though." That embryonic merchants nre to be found among the newsboys of Philadelphia was revealed in the fol lowing dialogue with one of the craft, who is particularly bright aud alert, while, as has been found by several men who are his patrons, is also scru pulously honest: "Give me a paper, son." "Yes, sir; here you are, sir. Never mind the money, sir; you can give me that at another time." "Why, how can you do business in that way? You don't know me. How do you know you'll ever get your money?" "Oh, I know you; I see you every day and have been waiting to get you to buy a paper." "Well, I've bought one. What now?" "Now I want you to buy one every day; won't you, sir ? You need not pay me wheu you buy it, I'd rather you paid me every Satur day, will you, please, sir'" "Of course, 1 will, my little mau," "Thank you, sir. Goodbye." "Good by." Here was enacted an incident that showed the true commercial in stinct, and tbe man was not slow to see it aud eucourage it. He insists that he will follow up that boy's career and do whatever he can to promote his interests. t Cupid, MedicaJ | I Assistant I > By LA TOUCHE HANCOCK < r Copyrltfbt, lUOG, by E. C. P&rcclls S ttWWWVWVWVWWWVWWg Dick Fremont was in an unromantic state of mind. A little Cupid, wlilch was holding a linger to its Hps und gazing at him from the top of an Ink itand ou a table by his side, seemed to -fl" 1 nUy.u-aIW, exhalisting filmself lately. He had been working too bard. At present be bad pains all over bis body. His tongue I was distinctly discolored, and bis pulse I was weak. His head was throbbing, ! and there was scarcely a portion of bis : body which did not ache. Loss of time ; meant loss of money to him. for he wrote for a living. If he did not work l he was perfectly aware that some one else would get ahead of him. Not that he had easily given up, but the task ! of putting words together had proved [ In his present condition as bard as | carving blocks of stone. In his extremity he thought of a doctor. Of all medical men he had a ! horror. At the moment, however, there seemed to be no excuse for not con "WHY, MAY—MISS MONTOOMEMY—'YOU?" quering his aversion, so he dispatched a bellboy with orders to bring the near est medical practitioner In a hurry. He had made a heroic effort to fore stall any aid from such a source. On the table near by were bottles of all sizes and shapes, containing nearly ev ery advertised patent medicino which he thought suited to his peculiar com plaint. He bad partaken of them ull with much the same result as if be "had drunk a "hazing" concoction. At last he had given up all hope of suc cessful self treatment and resigned himself to a dubitatlve trial of "kill or cure" at the hands of a doctor. The little Cupid attracted bis eyes to n photograph lying close at his hand. He took it up, looked at it earnestly and meditated. Just as he was about to press it to his Hps a knock came at the door. He said wearily, "Come in!" and a woman's voice responded: '•Pardon me, but are you the gentle man who sent for a doctor? The boy who called me said you lived on the third floor, but I did not quite catch the name he mentioned." The tones of the voice seemed fa miliar to Dick. He hastily hid the photograph be had in his hand behind tlie pillow ou his chair and looked up at his visitor. "Why, May Miss Montgomery you?" With a blush the woman he address ed turned as if togo away. "It must hove been a mistake," she began, when he interrupted her. "No, no! Please come In!" She hesitated and then, closing the door, looked at him. There was a pause, and neither spoke. Then Dick said, in a half whis per, "Are you a—a doctor?" "I am," she replied, with a smile, "but I don't think you meant to send for me." "Well"—he hesitated. "I'm glad to see any doctor." "Thank you!" She almost laughed at the doubtful compliment. "No! I don't mean that. I—l really had no idea of seeing you. I told the h°llboy togo for the nearest doctor, and I never "thought"— "To see me? No; I suppose not. You didn't know 1 had taken my degree. Of course not. I don't suppose my af fairs interested you after"— "After our quarrel? Oh, yes, they did, I assure you"— She stopped him with a glance. "You do look sick," said she, "really sick, and"—advancing to the table— "what on earth have you been dosing yourself with?" "A little medicine." "A little mediclue? A little poison!" she exclaimed, with a laugh, as she took up the several bottles, one after the other, and examined them. "Toothache drops! Paregoric! Dear me, you must have a complication of ailments!" "1 suppose I have,"he wearily as sented. ••I've tried them all, and I'm not a bit better!" Slit? burst out laughing. Then she came n little nearer to liliu nuil said, hesitating, "Let ine feel your pulse." He put bis hand In hern. Ills puis* was beating at fever beat. She count ed menially, then touching him on til* shoulder gently pressed his body for ward and placed her car to his back. As she did so the pillow fell down, re leasing the hidden picture. |she started as she suw her own photograph. Then, with a quite smile, she said, "Are you In pain?" "Awful!" he replied, pressing his heart. She winced and turned toward the mantelpiece. There, staring her In the face, was another photograph of her self. She turned and looked at him. "Why," she exclaimed, "I really be lieve you still"— "Yes," he replied, looking straight into her eyes, "I do still care for yon. Won't you forgive me for my share In that silly quarrel we had two year* ago? 1" She made no reply as he hesitated. "Ah, say 'yes,'" and he tried to rile, but sank back with an expression of pain. "Don't get up," she said gently. "You are too sick 1" "Can't you help me?" She sullied. "I think I can." She took out her prescription book and wrote on a leaf. "Here Is a prescription which"— "Oh. bless the medicine! I don't want that. If you only"— "Will you take It? See what It l»!" "Oh, I can't read doctors' hieroglyph ics. I mean I don't understand Latin." She handed him the slip of paper. He took it and carelessly scanned what she had written, which was merely her name—"May Montgomery." "Will I take It?" he almost shouted. "Will you give It to me?" She nodded her head. The cure wus complete. H« Asked Par It. "Do you know that the coin you lent me was a counterfeit?" said the habitu al borrower. "Oh, sure I do. Yuu said that yos. needed It l»ad." $13."]5~16.50 and iS.oo C VZAL I UES.

Norfolk, Va., Maivli 14 —A pretty young woman with blonde, wavy hair last night stepped up to Ilie ticket office of the Norfolk & Western depot to purchase a ticket for Richmond. She then discovered she had lost htr purse and became much perplexed. She was well dressed, lniviig amo: g her other wearing apparel a beautiful red .-ilk underskirt, the lower ruffle of which showed as she sat in the waiting room. Finally she struck a bargain with another woman in the room. She would sell the red silk petticoat for enoiig'i money to pur chase a ticket to Richmond. The pair retired to the inner wait ing room and soon emerged together, but the silk petticoat had changed owners. The purchaser carried the beautiful garment over her arm, while she who had worn it but a mom ent before walked up to the ticket office and bought her ticket. CASTOntA. Bears the The Kind You Have Always Bought "SUCH STUFF f.S DREAMS" There is « Theory That "Nl{|h 112 marks'* Itie Buck to Past Generu'.lons. Now a theory is being advanced that when we dream something which seems wholly impossible, such as that we are falling through space, lighting a wild beast, committing a murder, or availing execution, we are really not the victims, as we fancy, of indiges tion, but are sufferers from "heredi tary memory,'' V hieli certainly sounds much more interesting. We are given t) understand that remote ancestors may have done any of these things, and that the remembrance of them has been passed 011 from generation to generation until it shapes itselfinto what the prosaic call a nightmare, and we, the children, suffer for the sins of our remote forefathers.— Lady's Pictorial.

The wrigiu of coffee is lost In the mists of antiquity, but the plant is be lieved to bo a native o£ Abyssinia and 10 have beeu carried thence into Arabia early in the iifteeutli century, whence the Jlcccan pilgrims soon carried it to all parts of the Mohammedan world. A bureau of commerce and labor pub lication notes that Burton in his "Anat omy of Melancholy" (1021) imkes this reference to it: "Turks have a drlnli called coffee, so named from a berry black as soot and as bitter, which they eip up hot, because they find by experi ence that that kind of drink so used helpetli digestion and promotetli alac rity." Although brought to Venice by a phy sician in 1591, it was only In 1052 that tiie first coffeehouse was established In Loudon, and it only became fashion able iu Paris iu 1000, says the same authority. England gradually forsook coffee for tea, but the progress of the beverage, though slower, was steadier In France. Until 100G, when the Dutch began to successfully grow coffee trees in Java from the Malibar (India) bean, all cof fee came from Arabia. The coffee cul ture of the West Indies aud Central anil South America had its beginnings, It is said, in a slip taken from a tree iu flie botanic gardens at Paris, which had obtained a vigorous growth from a cutting said to have been stolen from the botanic gardens at Amsterdam. All the plantations of the old and new world are practically derived from the , specimens taken from Arabia, first to India, thence to Java and elsewhere. Tlie Britlnli Anthem. The whirligig of time has brought changes of its own into the British na tional anthem. In 1745 It began: God save great George, our king! The king's name was again Inserted in that second verse, which lias been used ns an argument to prove that the words were written by Ben Jonson as early as , 1607 to celebrate Klug James I.'s es cape from the gunpowder plot: Confound thftlr politics. Frustrate their knavish tricks; On George our hopes we fix- God save the king! The change to tiio present form Is: On thee our hopes wc fix, where deity has been substituted for majesty. There is another rendering, which the exigencies of the times 110 longer demand; Ci, grant that Marshal Wade May by thy mighty aid Victory bring! May he sedition hush And like a torrent rush Rebellious Scots to crush; God save the king! —London Queen. Postponed. A bashful young couple who were cv Idently very much In love entered u crowded street car In Boston tho other day.

Tin' term "entire," so often seen over Inns and taverns in England and not always understood by the passersby, Is said to have first been used about 1722. Prior to that date the malt liq uors in general use were ale, beer ami "twopenny." It was usual for tavern customers to call for a piut or tankard of half and half—that is, half ale and half beer, half ale and half twopenny or half beer and half twopenny. In course of time It became customary to call for a tankard of"three threads," meaning a third of ale, beer and two penny. To save publicans the trouble and waste of turning three taps for one piut of liquor a brewer named Har wood conceived the idea of making a | beverage which should unite the 11a- j vors of all three drinks.

I turn to him as I do to the English common law as the world's most copious foun tain of human jurisprudence."

"It does not Interfere with my work." said Mr. Mill. Miss Cobbe remarked that Herbert Spencer was jnueli annoyed by such disturbance. "All, yes, of course!" rejoined the modest man. "Writing Spencer's works one must have quiet!" lie was so unconscious of the free dom from disturbance required to write his own "System of Logic" and "Po litical Economy" that he would allow, while writing.
