A Few from the Arizona Kicker. The Arizona Kicker employs no trav- eling agents to take subscriptions, and whenever a man is found at work col- | lecting money, it won’t do any harm to pull him up a limb three or four times and then whisper in his ear. In case | of accident we will pay all expénses and send on a tombstone. Last week the Blue Hill Record plaintively inquired of the winds, “How long is this czar of Arizona (meaning us) to remain unhung to stalk among us?” Our answer is that we propose to stalk for many years yet, and whenever any little hanging comes off we shall be on deck to help make things lively. During our temporary absence from the sanctum, the other day, Major Rid- dle called and fired three bullets into our cuckoo clock. in the most heroic manner. If the major continues on the giddy career he has mapped out, he will feel a pain some day. A New York advertising agency wants to know if we will make affida- vit that our circulation is 1,000,000,000 copies per week, as advertised. Of coursge we will. An editor who won’t lie about his circulation and swear to it would be locked up as a dead failure these days. And while we are swear- ing we had just as soon swear to 2,000, 000,000. as 1,000,000,000. A party named White from Ohio was in town yesterday to see about estab- lishing a private bank, but upon learn- ing that five different bankers had been hung here because their books and their cash didn’t balance, he decided to go over to Lone Jack and start a res- taurant. DISASTROUS WRECKS. Carelessness is responsible for many a railway wreck and the same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from Throat and Lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and colds, even the worst cases can be cured, and hopeless resignation is no longer necessary. Mrs. Lois Cragg of Dorchester, Mass.. is one of many whose life was saved dy Dr. King’s New Dis- covery. This great remedy is guaran. teed for all Throat and Lung diseases by E. II. Miller, Druggist. Price 50c, and $1.00. Trial bottles free. 12-1 German Baptist Home. Dr. Peter Fahrney, the millionaire patent medicine manufacturer of Chi- cago, formerly of Washington county, this state, has given to the German Baptist Church (Dunkard) the valuable property, San-Mar, lying along South Mountain, near Mapleville, in Wash- ington county, to be used as a home for the nged and homeless of the Dunkard church. The property several years ago was fitted up as a sanitarium, and, including the land, is valued at $20,000. The announcement of the gift was made by Rev. A. 8 Barnhart, a Dunkard min- ister of Hagerstown, who has returned from a trip to Chicago on church busi- ness.—QOakland Journal. WHEN YOU HAVE A BADCOLD You want a remedy that will not only give quick relief,but effect a permanent cure. You want a remedy that will relieve the lungs and keep expectoration easy. You want a remedy that will coun- tenet any tendency toward pneu- monia. You want a remedy that is pleasant and safe to take. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy meets all of these requirements, and for the -peedy and permanent cure of bad colds -tands without a peer. For sale by kK. H. Miller. 12-1 Who They Were. “Who are all these men marching afoot?” asks the stranger. “They are the members of the Team- sters’ union, which is out on strike,” answers the native. “And who is that man at the head of the parade?” “You mean the one in the open top carriage drawn by four horses?” “Yes.” ‘‘He’s the walking delegate.”—Chicsa- go Tribune. Go Home. When tired out, go home; when you want consolation, go home; when you want fun, go home; when you want to show to others that you have reformed, go home and let your family get ac- quainted with the fact; when you want to show yourself at your best, go home and do the act there; when you feel like being extra liberal, go home and practice on your wife and children first ; when you want to shine with more brilliancy than usual, go home and light up the whole household. How to Walk. There is no virtue in a dawdling saunter. The slow and languid drag- ging one foot after the other, which some people call walking, would tire an athlete; it utterly exhausts a weak person, and that is the reason why many delicate persons think they can- not walk. To derive any benefit from the exercise it is necessary to walk with a light, elastic step, which swings the weight of the body so easily from one leg to the other that its weight is not felt, and which produces a healthy glow, showing that the sluggish blood ig stirred to action in the most remote veins.—Family Doctor. 1 The Newer Arithmetic. James has a tin horse which cost 15 cents, and his sister Betty has a &tring of beads which cost 50. When James had made her believe that a tin horse could get scared and rum away, and that beads were only for freckled girls, how much was he ahead of the game? It is half a mile from the plusiber’s shop to the house where he has sent a workman to repair a leak in a water pipe, and the workman is two hours and a half in reaching the house, one hour in walking around the leak, and 15 minutes In fixing it when he finally gets a move on. How much time in all is charged up to the owner of the house? About 40 cents an hour, waat would be the cash value? If Henry, who has seven marbles in his pocket, has 40 rods to go, and William, who has a broken top, has 55 rods to go, how much faster must William run than Henry to make an exchange? A village has a well 22 fzet deep, and a son four feet long. The son falls into the well while looking for his ball and only a foot of him sticks up above the water. What difference remained? Milton is sent to the grocery after two dozen eggs at 17 cents a dozen. On the way home he sucks two, throws three at a dog and falls down and breaks four others. How many were left and how much would they come to at the price named? Brief Blographies of the Ancients. Carnegie, Andrew, stone cutter and builder; flourishing A. D., 1840 (?)— about the time of the Second Pun'e War. He was active, especially along the coasts of North America, where his name is to be found carved on the ruins of numerous buildings, believed by some scientists, to have been libraries. He also manufactured ar- mor plate, which, such was hiz abhur- rence of wealth and his determination to die poor, he sold to the government at greatly reduced rates. Dowie, or Dewey, George John Alex- ander, a leader of the Crusaders. He won a great victory over the Spaa- fards, at Manila. Afterward, with an army of recruits from Zion City, he invaded the ancient metropolis of Nuyork, but was easily put to flight. He thereupon married a widow and his subsequent history become lost im oblivion. They Knew Him. A well-known literary man who has been spending several weeks at his old home in Vermont, tells of a con- versation which he overheard between two visitors on the porch of the vil- lage store. An acquaintance of theirs had just passed in the street, and the following comment was heard by the visitor: “Thar goes Si Perkin.” Then a meditative pause. “Si ain't the man he used to be.” “Naw—an’ he per's Weekly. never was.”—Har- CERTAINLY OVERWORKED. “Doctor, 1 have that tired feeling.” “Let me see your tongue.” Don’t Give It Up. Mrs. Johnson has a canary in a cage, and Mrs. O'Regan has a wall eyed cat. It is 40 feet from bird to cat with a window up. If the cat made five feet at a jump. how many jumps in all? If Mrs. Johnson called Mrs. O'Regan 50 names in one hour ? In one day ? There are 16 sparrows in the road, and David collects 50 stones to throw at them. When he has thrown his last stone, how many sparrows are still living? After the pupil hag figured for an hour or so he can be told that no boy ever yet succeeded in killing a sparrow with a stene. ————————— What the Dreamer Dreihes. * Patience—You say he {éves im dreams?” = Patrice—Yes, indeed.

Sergeant of the Guard—I hab to re- port three prisoners, Captain. Captain—What is dey, pullets or ole hens? Some Stunning Calculations. Every blow that a mother strikes with the bootjack she exercises a pressure of seven pounds to the square inch. Supposing that Tommy had 44 square {nches to cover, what would the total pressure be? Suppose he was covered twice a day for a week, what total would you have? Mrs. O'Grady weighs 210 pounds. and little Charlie Davis weighs oniy 72 pounds. What is the difference between their weight, and shouil Charlie strike her with hie bike while going at the rate of 30 miles an hour. how many .handsprings would Mrs. O'Grady turn before stopping to in- quire what was up? Mistaken Identity. Residents of a certain part of Spruce street have often seen two charming old ladies, twin sisters who look so much alike that no one ever bothers to distinguish between them, coming out from one of the houses. The fact that they both dress almost alike makes it still harder to tell them apart. Someone who knows the old ladies very well relates that Ann, while mak- ing @ hurried departure.for one of the big department stories last week, put on Susan's bonnet by mistake. In walking through the store she came suddenly in front of a full length mir- ror, and stepped back in astonish- ment, saying: “Why, -Sue, I didn't know you were coming down town this morning.” — Philadelphia Tele- graph. COULDN'T SMUGGLE. Two gentlemen on an ocean liner coming into New York harbor, after having made declarations, met on deek, “Well, did you make a clean breast of it?” said one. “0, yes,” was the response. “I can't smuggle; you know. I'm a pro- tectionist. But how about you? Did you declare everything?” “To be sure,” said the other. “It won't do for me to smuggle; I'm a free trader.”—Century. Children of the Alley. “Jimmy Twyman’s gittin’® to be quite a sport,” sald Tuggy Brin to Mikey Shay as he whacked a brickbat in the middle of the alley with a piece of lath. “How you know?” asked Mikey. “'Cause, he kin chew tobacker and drink water at the same time.”— Cleveland Leader. s8eats for 48 from Utah.
