Shenandoah. Fishermen are look
ing forward to one of (he best trout
seasons of many years. The advance
guard who made a special tour ol
many streams have returned and re
port this year has the earmark of
unprecedented conditions. They
claim the early disappearance of Ice
and snow has raised the temperature
of the water, which Is remarkably
clear. The mild weather caused the
thaw to be gradual, doing away wlih
Icy waters, cold and muddy, causing
much Joy In nimrod circles.
To add to the bright outlook thou
sands of trout fry from the State
hatcheries have 'been deposited In
the numerous streams hereabouts for
the last three seasons by the local
anglers, who now hope to be reward
ed for all their trouble In the past.

case of the actor and the canal boat

New York, at the New Wlllard.
"There was once upon a time an
actor, who, after an enforced idle
ness of two months, was lucky
enough to secure an engagement in
a town 25 miles away.
"The case was a hurry-up one.
The actor had to reach the distant
town that night. If he failed to ar
rive, then his part would be asslgnei
to some one else.
"Well the man patched his worn
boots with thread, pinned up his few
belongings In a newspaper, and set
out in the early morning on foot
along the towpath. He had only a
few coppers, hence the train was an
Impossibility.
"But after the poor fellow had cov
ered some six or seven miles his boots
gave out, blisters rose on his feet,
fat'.gue overcame him, and in despair
he threw himself on the grass be
neath a tree.
"A he lay there, in a bitter mood,

near slowly, and an idea seized the
actor.

I would have none of It.
i "One day my sister substituted a cop
I of piping hot Poitum for my morning
cup of coffee but did not tell me
what It was. I noticed the richness
of It and remarked that the coffee
tasted fine, but taj sister did not tell
me I was drinking Postum for fear 1
; might not take any more.
; "She kept the secret and kept glr
' ,rl me Postum Instead of coffee
until I grew stronger, more tireless,
I got a better color In my sallow cheek i
and a clearness to my eyes, then she
' told me of the health-giving, nerve
j strengthening life-saver she bad given
me In place of my mornlrg coffee.
Prom that time I became a disciple

A Painful K.xprfMilon.
William G. KotkefelleT Is the
president of the National Iieague
Club and an authority on dogs no
less than on fiootice.
Discussing tbe training of dogs at
a recent club meeting. Mr. Rocke
feller sa'd:
"Yes. tra'ning U an art. Tho
simplest appearing canine perform
ance Is, properly understood, a
difficult tiling. Jt looks easy, but
It Is hard: and thus" Mr. Rocke
feller Bmlled "thus It U like the
man at the photographer's.
"This man, sitting for his por
trait, sa'd Impatiently to the artist:
" 'Well, have 1 got Jiow tha pleas
ant expression you desire'
" 'Yei, thank you,' said tbe photo
grapher. 'That will do nicely.'
" 'Then hurry up." growled the
man. 'It hurta my fate." "
A Know leilgeous Person.
An English marvel has come to
this country to answer any question
as to quantity or date that may be
asked h.m. It is said that know
ledge i.i power, and according to tf.I,
that mtin must be a poweilul man.
but on the other hand, It is very
likely he It nothing of the kind. A
man may know so much that the
knowledge Is In his way and Inter
foro with his thinking and doing.
Knowledge Is power only when II
Is put lo work, and to reach this
point there must lie a dispo-lllon or
resolution 'n this person lo be some
thing. Always getting Knowledge,
but never assimilating It or putting
It to some good use, is apt to make
the Individual negative If not worth
loss. So our educational instil utioiix
should always weave purpose along
side of Instruction. The person
who cannot or will not make the
fact ho has learned v tal is r.ot edu
cated. Industrial training recognize,!
this doctrine, and ro dos every o ti
er true educiit xnal purpose.- O. l i

THE CRACKING OF PAINT.
Property Owners Cmi Save Money
by Learning the Cuuse.
Do you know what Is wrong when
paint peels, or cracks, or otherwise
necessitates premature re-pal:itlng?
Well, sometimes It hasn't been
properly applied the surface being
damp or there being too much tur
pentine or too much drier.
But, nine times out of ten, the
trouble Is caused by adulterated
white lead.
To avoid all such trouble, ever)
houseowner should know in a general
way, when a surface Is In proper con
dition to receive paint, whut kind of
primer and finishing coats different
surfaces require, and how to avoid
adulteration In materials.
A complete painting guide. Includ
ing a book of color schemes, specifi
cations for all kluds of pain lng work,
and an Instrument for detecting adul
teration in painting materials, with
directions for using It, can be had
free by writing National Lend Com
pany, 1902 Trinity Bldg., New York,
and asking for House-owner's Pain.
Ing Outfit No. 49.
This company, the largest makers
of pure white lead, Invite tests, by
means of the blowpipe (Included in
outfit), or In Bny other way, of the
purity of the white lead Bold under
their famous "Dutch Boy Painter"
trademark. That trademark on a keg
of white lead is In Itself an absolute
guarantee of purity and quality.
Mind Your PN And y's.
The most probable derlvnl on of
this phrase is that It comes from the
printing ollice. and ro e trom the fact
that the p's and q's In Roman type
very but si ghtly in form, nnd that
when re-.ersed, as they necessarily
are in type, they are easily confound
ed by young compositors. Another
derivation refers it to the "scot"
written up In the' ale-hou-e, where
P and Q were used to des guate
p'nts and quails. Still another de
rivation relets it to the toupees and
queues of olden tlmej.

fective Liniment I have ever known."
Mr. H. M. Gibbs, of Lawrence
Kans., R. V. D. No. 3, writes: "Your
Liniment is the best that I have ever
used. I had a mare with an abscess
on her neck and ene 5(ic. bottle of
Sloan's Liniment entirely cured her
I keep It around all the time for gallr.
