Talc of a Stamp. I'm a stamp A postage stamp A two-center; Don't want to brag. But I was never licked, Except once; By a gentleman, too; He put me on To a good thing; It was an envelope Perfumed, pink, square: I've been stuck on That envelope Ever since; He dropped us The envelope and me Through a slot In a dark box; But we were rescued By a mail clerk, More's the pity; He hit me an awful Smash with a hammer; It left my face Black and blue; Then I went on a long Journey Of two days; And when we arrived The pink envelope and me We were presented. To a perfect love Of a girl, With the stunnlngest pair Of blue eyes That ever blisked: Say, she's a dream! Well, she mutilated The pink envelope And tore one corner Of me off With a hairpin; Then she read what Was inside The pink envelope; I never saw a girl blush So beautifully! I would be stuck On her if I could. Well, she placed The writing back In the pink envelope; Then she kissed me. Oh, you little godlets! Her lips were ripe As cherries, And warm As the summer sun. We The pink envelope and me Are now Nestling snugly In her bosom; We can hear Her heart throb; When it goes fastest She takes us out And kissed me. Oh, say, This Is great! I'm glad I'm a stamp A two-center. Ohio State Journal, Man that is married to woman a oi many uays auu is iuu or trouble. In the morning ho draws his salary, and in the even ing, behold, it is all gone;it goeth, but he knows not where. He spendeth shekels in the purchase of tine linen to cover the bosom of his family, yet he is seen at the gates of the city with but one suspender. He goeth forth as an ox or ass and draweth the chariot of his offspring. He rises, clad in the chilly garments of the night, and seeketh the somnam-bugent paregoric which healeth the colicky stomach of his offspring. Yea, he is altogether wretched and full of misery. Wide is the road and broad is the way that loadeth to the gate of matrimony, and many there bo that gocth in thereat. High Lights. What a Bachelor Thinks. She Had Saved Too. When a man has to hurry too much it is because somewhere in his past he didn't hurry enough. Art is man's homage to nature. Body and brain may know- fatigue, but no man ever tired of life until his heart is weary. The most dignified and intel lectual man on earth is liable to marry a girl who will call him 'honey." If you refuse to tell some per sons how much money you earn in a week thev will go away and pronounce you "inscrutable. Unless you keep it a secret, don't cherish too good an opin ion of yourself. , They also serve who sit down and wait. Wealth is a pleasing conditon of always having street car fares. For active and prolonged exer cise set out to run down a rumor. Unreciprocated love can't kill a man who has a healthy liver. The world has two kinds of people to be afraid of, the clever and the stupid. Men who have been in office always seem to have so much more wisdom than they had while in office. When a girl is sent away to break off aloveaffair she generally meets another attractive man on the train. When the lady of the house breaks a piece of china herself, she always says she never did like it very well anyway. For Those who Smoke. Krom The New York World They had been married ten years and during that time he had prospered. Each mouth lie had divided what was left over from their daily expenses, giving half to her for pocket money and stowinir the other half in the Steonth National Bank. "The Steenth National Bauk," he used to tell her, "is the safest institution on earth. While our funds are there the door can give the wolf the jovial ha, ha!" And as that was absolutely all ho would tell her about business affairs she grew to cling to it as an article of faith. One day he came home, pale gray and clamoring for his revol ver. For, lo, the Steonth Nation al Bank had closed its doors. "What is it, dear?" sho cooed. "What ails you?" "We're ruined," ho gasped. "Every cent we had in the world is swept away and the wolf is forcing the door into a clinch at last." "Nay, not so," she cried hero ically. "I will save you. For teu years you have given me ten times as much money as I could spend. Every cent of it has been carefully laid by for just this par ticular rainy day. Take it. It is yours." And it came to pass that the man did a step dance all over the room and saw roseate visions of Fate, the referee, ordering the Wolf and the Door to 'break away!' Suddenly he paused and asked her tenderly: "But you little heroine, where is all this fortune you have laid by?" "Why, where should it be, "she cried triumphantly, "but in the dear old Steenth National Bank, the safest institution on earth?' " COOO0OOO0OOCK'OOOOOOOOO0 PHILIP F.

Re cently they established their res idence with some of the people there, and inculcated their doc trines. They have baptized Mrs. Jeremiah Daley and Misses Mol lie Kindley and Elsie McFerren. The rite was performed at Geo. G. Rock's pool before a large as semblage, and more are to be im mersed soon. There may be some appropriateness in the sec , tion of this county for missionary work by the Mormons. After Brigham Young had driven Sid ney Rigdon out of the church, in 1844, Rigdon and 150 of his fol lowers came to Antrim township and purchased 400 acres of land not far from the scene of the present missionary field. They maintained their settlement there less than two years. They were improvident, and could not meet the payments on the farm, and the original owner foreclosed in 1847. Some of the members of the colony went to Utah, and oth ers became Gentiles. Valley Spirit. "Our little girl was unconscious from strangulation during a sud den and terrible attack of croup. I quickly secured a bottle of One Minute Cough Cure, giving her three doses. The croup waa mastered and our little darling speedily recovered" So writes A. L. Spaftord, Chester, Michigan. The great point in pipe smok ing is to learn to smoke slowly. When this habit is acquired, the fullflavor of the tobacco will always be enjoyed, every smoke will be a cool one, and tongue burning will be unknown. It is, however, very hard for nervous people to smoke slowly. We know of cases wnere smokers have tried for a score or years to check their smoking speed without success. 1 hey probably did not begin to make the effort early enough in their smoking careers. With good tobacco and a root pipe the slow smoker attains a degree of pleasurable enjoyment in smok ing of which the rapid smoker has not an inkling. Ferhaps all smokers do not know that it makes no difference in the flavor of pipe tobacco how many times a pipe goes out. A cigar which is allowed to go out once has its flavor ruined and is most appreciably termed a butt A pipe, however, tastes, if any thing, better for going out. Fastidious smokers always have at least two pipes at hand and never till one until it has entirely cooled off. This is a help toward cool smoking and reasonable life in a pijKj. A good test by which to tell if you are smoking too fast is to hold the bowl in your hand. If it is too hot to do so. then you may know your speed is too great.

A bill amending the state game laws was passed by the House recently. The bill limits the number of deer killed in one sea son to one without distinction as to sex; prohibits at all times the sale of deer, wild turkeys, pheas ants quail and allows all foreign game to bo sold in Pennsylvania during the open season and ten thereafter. The bill also extends the season for the killing of rab bits from Oct. 16th to Dec. 15th and also allows persons whose fruit, trees or grain is being de stroyed by rabits to kill same at any season of the year. It allows the killing of four wild turkeys during the season and the killing of but 7 pheasants in any one day.

At the department of agricul ture some thorough tests have been made of samples of coffee to determine the extent and nature of coffee adulterations. The re sults are entirely reassuring to coffee lovers. The expert in charge finds that while very little pure Java or Mocha berries find their way into the American mar ket, almost if not quite as good flavored beans are had from other tropical places, Porto Rico and Hawaii being mentioned as fur nishing good coffee. The adul terants, when used, are for the most part harmless. The testing chemist further declares that the use of coffee in moderation should not do any in jury to adults even if continued a full lifetime, but mentions in de tail what moderation means. This is a cupful only half of it coffee, the rest hot milk at breakfast, none at noon, and a small cup of black coffee after dinner. On some systems un doubtedly coffee may act as a poison, and such persons, of course, snoum uoi arinK it. i ne average grown person in normal health may use it moderately without harm.

This German adventurer is having built at Wilhelmshaven a subma rine boat in the form of an elip soid 70 by 26 feet. It will be capable of descending 126 feet below the surface and with its capacity of 8500 cubic feet main taining the life of five men for 15 hours. It is proposed to start the voyage at the edge of the pack ice north of Spitzbergen and con tinue north under the ice, which is never over 80 feet thick and usually only from 16 to 20 feet. The course will be continued for six hours and then if open water is encountered an ascent to the surface will be made. Provided no open water can be found, a hole will be blasted in the ice. This, it is expected, will be nec essary, as the areas of pack ice rarely extend more than three miles, and the boat can travel 50 miles in 15 hours. Power for thi' propulsion of the craft will be ob tained from a petroleum motor of 40-horse power, and will bo used thr ough the. medium of a storage battery. A five-horse power mo tor will drive a vortieal propeller screw which will keep the boat submerged, and when this is stopped the vessel will rise. One hundred and fifty tons of petro leum will be takeu, or more than j ton times enough for the 000-mile voyage. NEW GOODS VT J. K. JOHNSTON'S.

But they are exceedingly disgraceful in the educated persons,", writes Mar garet E. Sangster, in the May Ladies' Home Journal "Beyond mere correctness of expression there is such a thing as a beauti ful choice of culture which the rich vocabulary shows, while the meagre one convicts of ignorance and poverty of resource. Collo quialisms and provincialisms are caught by those who live constant ly among the unlearned, but the influence of this contact may be modified by a daily study of words, as in a lexicon or thesau rus, and by the habitual reading of good books.

Here is the arerm of that terri of tvDhoid feveri and here is the still mors dreadful bacillus of tubercle which causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh." v " I wish, Doctor," said the traveling man, " that you would tell us about catarrh. I have had it for years, and 1 am thoroughly discouraged." The Doctor answered. "Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it is rare to meet one who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. How often is he or she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves of many intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient beoomes loathsome both to himself and his friends. " I believe," continued this great physician, "that the true way to heal ca tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done pnly by powerful alteratives which act as blood purifiers." Itetsy A. Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes; Dear Sirs: For ten years I was a sufferer from general4ebility and chronio catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could hardly walk, I was so dizzy and had a ringing in my head all the time. My hands and feet were always Cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again. I had awful pains in the small ot my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness. My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and I couldn't go half a dozen steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have a paiu in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get ting well. I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief. My husband got me a bottle of Johnston's Sarsaparilla. I took it. and then I bought another. When these had been used, I was somewhat Improved in health. I continued its nse. and felt I was growing stronger) my sleep .was re freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. I work all the time, and am happy. I ant positive that the HarsaparfUa saved my life. The sick headaches I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca tarrh has almost entirely left me. I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston's Sarsaparilla has done for me. I .recommend all women who have sick head aches to use your Sarsaparilla. MiOMiUAif snvo ooiacv.ja.arv, dntkoxv, xxcrax. Fur Sale si Trout's lUu Stur.
