The War Spirit.
The war spirit is particularly strong
In and around the interesting old town
of Bristol, Pa. There was a sale near
the town on Saturday and the auction
rer uroused the lighting blood of those
present by dragging into the light of
day a great arra3* of old army muskets,
shotguns, cutlasses and other warlike
paraphernalia. He put these up for
sale, and the bidding nt once became i
very lively. The auctioneer was not I
slow to take advantage of the ciTer- \
vescent patriotism of the crowd and
plunged into a fiery philippic against
the treachery of Spain. The old guns
went off like hot cakes and the lot was
soon cleaned up. One of the most en
thusiastic bidders, a wortli3* gentleman
named John Baits, bought all his purse
could pa 3* for and immediately organ
ized an impromptu demonstration, lie
rigged himself up with a belt, an old
army canteen, an old powder flask, sev
eral ba3*onets and the biggest of his
muskets over his shoulder. The other
bu3*ers lined up behind him and by
common impulse joined in singing
"Rally 'Round the Flag, 803*5," while
the 3* marched around the room. Their
singing drowned the voice of the auc
tioneer and practically put an end to
the sale.
It is said that the good people of Niles,
Mich., have a great passion for sliding
down hill. That young and old, rich
and poor, engage in it, to the detri
ment of business, social demands or
spiritual welfare. Especially is this
true Sunda3*B, as the following will
prove; Wending his way to church a
few Sundays ago, a minister noticed
that nearly the whole village was coast
ing. He entered his pulpit and was
pleased to see that his pews were full,
find he congratulated all upon their
piety and ability to resist the tempta
tion to elide down hill, especially us
the ice was just right. No sooner had
he mentioned the fact that the hills
wore in good condition than those near
est the door quietly slipped out, to be
followed by the rest at short in tervals,
until within ten minutes not a soul re
mained. Later the good pastor could
have been seen sitting 011 a near-by
fence, delightedly watching his congre
gation while they pursued their favor
ite amusement.
An entomologist says he has known
n common garden wasp to kill 1,000
flies a day. If we have ever said any
thing in derogation of the wasp and
his heated terminal facilities, we trust
lhat it will be considered as never hav
ing been spoken. Anybody or anything
ihafc will kill 1,000 flies in a single day
is worthy of all praise, and the wasp
will henceforth be persona grata among
the ball-headed fraternity.
A con temporal* points proudly to the
fact that Massachusetts governors do
not interfere and pardon criminals who
are sentenced to death. Their pardon
record in cases of other criminals is
equally in accord with the popular feel
ing, that executive clemency should not
often overrule the sentences of the
courts.
Down in Maine "tliank-you-ina'anis"
fire called "yes-ma'ams," and one stage
driver says he counted 700 of thorn in
the 25-mile drive between Augusta and
Washington Mills. His breakfast was
well settled long before dinner time.
At a recent church fair in a small city
the receipts aggregated over $4,000,
which were mostly gained in unfair
competition with the town merchants.
A dealer who succumbed to solicita
tions to give five pairs of shoes saw
them marked at less than cost, and
affirms that he was afterward twitted
aver his own counter because he charged
more than the bazaar saleswoman.

The "Middle State."
It is sufficient for the people who arc
obliged to "skimp" and manage to mak<
both ends meet to realize that the 3* ge;
more pleasure out of life than thost
who can afford to gratif3' their whim:
and who need not think before deciding
upon any purchase that strikes thcii
fancy, says a writer in the New York
Tribune. As Bridget says in "Elsie,"
there is a "middle state," in which peo
ple are far happier—if they would only
believe it—than those who are well en
dowed with this world's goods. "A pur
chase is 01113* a purchase, now that we
have money," continues Bridget, regret
fully. "Formerly it was a triumph!
When wc coveted a luxury in those good
old times we used to have a debate for
days before, and weigh the for and
against, und think what we might spare
it out of, and what saving we could hit
upon that could be an equivalent. A
thing was worth biding then, when we
felt the money we paid for it!" A
book, an ornament, a plant, a bit of
china, a piece of silver—all had their
value in those days of our simplicity.
Shall we ever learn that there are better
things in the world than money can
buy? Simple pleasures and happy
hours, that are unattainable by the
rich! What are the 3*oung people made
of nowadays that the\* dread poverty 1
so much? Are not youth and health and I
a suflicienc3* for absolute needs riches 1
enough? Does romance count for noth
ing in these days of Mammon? Riches :
take to themselves wings and flee away, |
and, as a matter of fact and of statis
tics, those marriages which, from a
! worldly point of view, seem most de
sirable, often turn out disappointing,
I while the young couple who begin life
with modest wishes and simple require
ments are apt in their middle life to
; bask in the sunshine of prosperit3.
| Some author has said that a comfortable
I fortune is the supplementary youth of
I middle age. A poor supplement, indeed,
and one which those who possess the
real thing need not envy, even although
comparative poverty may be its accom
paniment.
The possibilities of Alaska still con
stitute a subject for speculation, but
that the bleak territory is to be per
manently peopled, just as California
and Oregon were peopled, so far as the
I rigors of climate will allow, is not to be
I doubted. Thousands are already there,
! and it is believed that 250,000 will go
|in with the advent of spring. Of
course many will return, but thousands
will flock thither in the following
spring, and so 011 until the inevitable
result must be a fixed quota of inhab
itants, to whom and to whose descend
ants Alaska will be a home. It seems
that no spot except tlie north pole is
impervious to the conquest of man, and
that in time must yield its secrets to
human daring.
A Wabash (Ind.) pli3*sician reports a
well-defined ease of a homesick cow.
The doctor a few weeks ago bought a
line milker from a Wabash county farm
er. She was brought in und placed in
his stable, but from the first day re
fused to eat, and spent the days and
nights in melancholy lowing. She the
first day or two gave an abundance of
milk, but soon afterward became "dr\\"
and the doctor became fearful she
would die. The other day he returned
her to the farmer. She appeared over
jo3*ed to get back to the old homo, be
gan to eat voraciously and is again giv
j ing milk. The doctor attributes it all
I to homesickness.
A certain Milwaukee steamboat cap
tain became impatient the other day,as
lake captains are liable to do, because
of the slow and poor work done I) 3* some
of the handlers of freight who were
loading the vessel. With round, well
measured swear words, tlie captain in
formed some of the men what he
thought of their work and of them.
One good-natured man, with some na
tural humor as well as physical ability,
turned to the commander and delivered
himself of the following: "Well, cap

TALES OF THE SANCTUM
Stories of editorial experience were float
ing around the room at the meeting of the
editorial association at the Palmer house a
few evenings ago. A type-foundry man had
just related an anecdote and some irrever
ent person had asked him why he did not
build his jokes like his type—on the point
system. During a lull J. M. Page, who is
corresponding secretary of the association,
told a story of his experience in Jerseyville,
111., where he publishes the Democrat.
The conversation had taken a turn toward
libel suits. "Speaking about these adjuncts
to the newspaper business," said Mr. Page,
"1 had an experience last fall for the happy
ending of which I may perhaps thank the
bears on the Chicago board of trade.
"A correspondent in a neighboring town
sent down with a batch of items one to the
effect that a certain grain dealer was going
out of the business and had ceased to buy
wheat. At the station jn question there
were but two dealers. That would have
given the other man a monopoly of the
business. That fact was commented on and
printed with the item.
"About two weeks later the grain man
who was supposed to have gone out of busi
ness drifted into the office. There was blood
in his eye. He had been slandered, and
hinted at a suit for heavy damages. He said
in a voice made fierce for the occasion that
he had not gone out of the grain business,
and that the publication of the item had
done him a great wrong. Farmers would
read it, he asserted, and drive past his place
of business when they, came to town with
grain without stopping to ask the price. lie
feared that his business had been immeas
urably damaged. His looks and actions
were such that I began to fear that cither
my pocketbook or my fare would suffer the
same misfortune that had befallen his busi
ness, and I realized at once that I must do
something to calm his fears, and settle the
I case out of court. A lil>el suit would have
been expensive even though I didn't lose
i it. Lawyers cost money in our part of the
[ state.
"i told him to be seated and we would talk
it overhand that if 1 had done him an in
jury it was unintentional, and that I would
square everything if it lay in my power to do
so. He was still unsatisfied, and said it was
a shame the way newspapers jumped on men
and hurt their business.
"When he became calm I asked him how
many bushels of wheat, in his opinion, the
publication of the item had diverted from
his business. He could not tell, but
guessed it might he all the way from 50,000
to 100,000. I took a pencil and began to fig
ure. 'Suppose we say 50,000 bushels,' I said.
I 'Let us look at the market prices to see how
j much you have lost..'
"I took the files of the paper and found
(hat wheat had gone down ten cents during
the time under discussion. It was in the
days of reaction from the September bulge.
I showed him the quotations. 'Now,' I said,
'suppose you had bought 50,000 bushels at
that time. It would be worth ten"cents loss
to-day and your losses would have been $5,-
000. You can figure that out for yourself.
Suppose you sue me for damages and we go
to law. I have a right to bring proof that
you were saved that amount of money by
reason of buying no wheat during this
period. The judge would then instruct the
jury to offset any damages with benefits
that might have occurred from the same
cause. Then the jury would he forced to
bring in a verdict in my favor of $5,000.'
"The man studied. He said he could not
see it that way. But his voice had lost its
fierceness and he did not bring suit."
An admirer of Mr. Page across the table
remarked after the story was over that the
grain dealer was in luck to escape without
first giving Mr. Page a niortguge on his ele
vator.
Another story relates to a shrewd man
who published an agricn'iural weekly not
fur from Chicago. The paper was supposed
to interest farmers, stock raisers and dairy
men in particular, and the publisher wanted
the advertisers to believe that he reached
every rural household in the Mississippi val
ley. He had some difficulty in convincing
them on this point, but lie certainly suc
ceeded in getting advertising, and he did
it by methods which will he appreciated by
anyone who has had any experience as an
advertiser.
Every tarcful and judicious advertiser
keeps accurate account of all inquiries and
sales which can be traced to any particular
medium. It lie puts an advertisement into
two newspapers and within a month re
ceives 100 letters mentioning the first news
paper and only 50 letters mentioning the
second newspaper he is very apt to conclude
that the first paper is twice as valuable as
the second—-that is, as an advertising medium
for his p.u lii ular kind of goods.
The publisher of the agricultural weekly
kno;. Hint advertisers kept this careful ac
count of returns, and he made arrangements
to have returns come in from every adver
tisement appearing in his sheet. Accord
ingly he made up hona-fide list of farmers
living within the territory which was sup
posed to be covered by his family paper, and
ho made arrangements to have these farmers
write for infoimation, price list or cata
logue every time a new advertisement came
mt in the paper. Of course these farmers
did not have to do any clerical labor them
selves, and in some instances they did not
know what w.us happening, except that they
continued to receive illustrated catalogues
and circulars addressed to prospective
agents.
Let us suppose tluit the publisher had in
duced a manufacturer of barbed wire or n
patent-churn man or a wholesale seed and
bulb house to put in a trial advertisement
3t a very cheap rate. Within two weeks
after the advertisement appeared the ad
vertiser receiw d some 50 or more letters
after the style of the following:
"Milkweed, Id., May 10, IS-J7. —Gentleman:
Having sen your adv. rti.cment of the Du
plex bcc-hive in the Weekly Cornshuck, I
write to ask that you send me a price list,
as I expect to buy about 50 hives this fall.
Yours very truly,
"ULYSSES G. SWAN."
This letter and the others had been writ
ten and mailed by various employes and
•igrnts under the direction of tlie publisher.
Such a system necessitated considerable
labor ami expense, but the reward was ade
quate. A month or so after the trial adver
tisement had appeared the publisher wrote
to the manufacturer, saying that he hoped
ho (the manufacturer) had realized some re
turns from the trial insertion in the Weekly
Cornshuck and would consider favorably a
proposition regarding an annua) contract.
The manager probably made a note and
sent to the advertising department to learn
what if any returns had come in from the
trial advertisement in the Cornshuck. The
answer was made that some 45 letters of in
quirv had been received.
The manager then said: "Why, that's as
many as I received from the Universal llus-
I handtnen, which is supposed to circulate
everywhere, and this fellow's rate isn't half
us high. I believe I'll try him for a year."
The consequence was that he signed a con
tract and paid the publisher a good price for
space in the paper. Perhaps the returns for
tiie year did not bear out the early promises,
but then, in any business, it often happens
that letters of inquiry do not lead to sales.—

IN HONOR OF EASTER.
Curious Customs Relative to the
Celebration of the Day.
In France, during the middle ages, then
were many curious customs, relative ti
Easter egg 9. Before Eastertide began tin
priests paid a round of visits, blessing and
receiving eggs. The largest eggs wen
picked out and sent to the king as tribute
After high muss in the chapel of the Louvre
on Easter day huge gavly decorated baskets
of gilded eggs were carried in to the roya
presence; the attendant chaplain blessed
and distributed them to those present. Then
came the substitution of the artificial egg
of sugar, pasteboard, ivory, and so forth, the
cover or case for some daintier gift.
It is a little curious that as far as the custom
of egg-rolling is practiced in the United
States it has u national reputation only in
Washington. llow or where it started
there no one now living in Washington can
tell; but that the enchanting slopes of the
white house grounds give it inviting encour
agement no one will dispute. With every
year the crowd of children engaged in the
sport has increased, and the egg-rolling has
finally grown to the importance of a festival.
The public schools are closed on Easter |
Monday, and thousands of children swarm I
about the white house. The grounds arc ]
prettily diversified with little hills and in !
termediate valleys, and on the knoll übove j
the steepest of these grassy slopes the chil ;
dren gather. Baskets and boxes are quickly
emptied, and the sport of rolling the colored
eggs begins. It has no apparent object,
unless it is to test the strength of the egg
shell and see how many times it will go
bumping over rough places without break
iHB- Some of the little ones try to roll their
eggs against others, to see which will break:
others run after their eggs as they roll down,
to catch them before they reach the bottom,
so that they may not break. But they are not
long-lived. Even the hard-boiled egg has a
limit of endurance. Before long the first
coiners have seen the last of their colored
treasures broken and scattered over the
grass. But the newcomers constantly ar
living bring a fresh supply. The children
come and go from nine o'clock till sundown.

Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy frequently cures several
members of a family. While it is considered by many to be a Kidney and
Bladder Medicine, it is just as certain to cure Dyspepsia, Constipation, Rheu
matism, Scrofula and Eczema. This is because it first puts the Kidneys in a
healthy condition, so they can sift all impurities from the blood.
Healthy blood practically means a completely healthy body.
