You've bothered me about this bill fifty times in ten days.” “You wrong me, Jarley. I'm not grasping. I've bothered you about the bill, I admit, but I haven't been able to grasp anything yet.” Found Him Guilty. Counsel (to the jury)—The principal fault of the prisoner has been his un- fortunate characteristic of putting faith in thieves and scoundrels of the basest description. I have done, The A Division of Purpos: Some years ago the Yankee schooner Sally Ann, under command of Captain Spooner, was beating up the Connecti- cut river. Mr. Comstock, the mate, ‘was at his station forward. According to his notion of things the schooner was getting a “leetle” too near certain mud flats which lay along the larboard shore. So aft he went to the captain and, with his bat cocked on one side, said: “Cap’n Spooner, you're getting a lee- tle too close to them flats. Hadn’t you better go abeout?” A, The captain glared at him. “Mr. Comstock, jest you go for'ard and tend to your part of the skuner. I'll tend to mine.” Mr. Comstock went for'ard in high dudgeon. “Boys,” he bellowed out, “see that that er mud hook’s all clear for lettin’ go “Aye, aye, sir!” % “Let go, then!” he roared. Down went the anchor, out rattled the chains, and like a flash the Sally Ann came lufing into the wind and then brought up all standing. Mr. Comstock walked aft and touched his hat. “Well, cap’n, my part of the skuner is to anchor.”—Everybody's. Men Should Brush Their Hair More. “Very few men brush their hair enough,” said a downtown barber, “Fact. Most ills of the scalp can be traced to-that fault. You see it's this way: A man is generally in a hurry when he dresses, and he never takes time to brush his hair—simply smooths it down, generally only with a comb— and as a result dandruff is allowed to accumulate and trouble begins. Now, with a woman it's different. A woman has to carefully brush her hair at least once a day. If she didn’t it would be a pretty mess. It's very length saves her, for in brushing it each day she gets out all sorts of impurities, dan- druff and the like, all of which is for her own good. Now, that is the chief reason why fewer women suffer from dandruff than the unfortunate mem- bers of the opposite sex, and it is also the reason why the hair is a woman’s crowning glory even if she is fair, fat and forty. So brush your hair every morning thoroughly if you want to keep In the swim.”—Philadelphia Record. So Bad as That! A young medical student who was calling upon a girl volunteered to sing and help entertain the company which arrived unespectedly. At the end of his second solo he turned to the young lady and remarked: “I am thinking of taking vocal lessons. Do you know of a good teacher?” “Yes, indeed,” was the quick reply, “I know the very one for you. Here is his. address,” and she scribbled the name on a card, giving it to the stu- dent. Next day he called up the teacher by telephone: “Is this the instructor of vocal music?” “The what?” was the answer. “The vocal teacher?” was repeated. “Naw,” came the reply, “I don’t teach nothing. I file saws!”—Ladles’ Home Journal. Most Northern Canada. Of the possibilities of extreme north- ern Canada a traveler writes: “The country that one passes through from Athabasca Landing down to the Arctic Red river is full of vegetation and will, in my opinion, one day be settled. In all the mission gardens at the different posts that I passed I saw wheat and barley growing, potatoes, lettuces, tur- nips, carrots and every kind of vegeta- ble that one grows in one’s own garden at home. The country is thickly tim- bered near the banks of the river, and there are few places in which you do not find large patches of prairie. You pass by a great outrush of natural gas, and oil is oozing out for miles along the river bank.” A Sense of Propriety. “So you stole this man’s ax?’ sald the judge. “Yessah. I reckons dar ain’ no use tryin’ ter spute de facts.” “What did you do that for? He said he would have been perfectly willing to lend you the ax.” “Yes; but you see, jedge, dat man’s on’y jes’ moved in de neighborhood. 1 doesn’ know him wel enough ter go ‘roun’ ter his house borryin’.”—Wash- ington Star. Hard to Say. “If your mother bought four baskets of grapes, the dealer’s price being a quarter a basket, how much money would the purchase cost her?’ asked the new teacher. “You never can tell,” answered Tom- my, who was at the head of his class. “Ma’s great at bargaining!”—Ladies’ Home Journal. Accepted. “Quills has had a story accepted at last,” remarked a journalist to a col- league. “Surely not,” was the rejoinder. “Yes. He went home at 2 o’clock this morning with an awful yarn, and his wife believed it.” A Big Door. The following is a copy of a bili posted on the wall of a country vil- lage in England: “A lecture on total abstinence will be delivered in the open air, and a collection will be made at the door to fletrsy expenses.” Surface Transit. p lively, please,” sald the con- ductor. “If 1 was young enough to do that,” responded the aged passenger, climb- Ing aboard, “I'd walk and beat your car.”—Philadelphia Ledger. A Phonetic Purchase. The late Henry Miller, who was guide, philosopher and friend to many book lovers within a thousand miles of New York, was a most successful salesman. One day he called on Collis P. Huntington and showed him a rare copy of a book. - “There are two volumes of this” said Mr. Miller. “The other volume is in perfect order, as you see this one is. You cannot possibly let them escape you, for you know you have anhapy man in the dock puts implicit Zaith in you, gentlemen of the jury! nothing lke this in your library.” “What is the price?” asked the rail- road kin=. SR ' | Drug Store. “Seven hundred dollars,” said the bookman. “Those are too valuable volumes for my lbrary,” Mr. Huntington ex- claimed. 4 Mr. Miller went back to his place and sent the books to Mr. Hunting- ton’s house with a bill for $700. Next day the railroad king sent for him. “Why did you send me those books?” he demanded sharply. “Because you bought them,” was the bookman’s calm reply. “I certainly did not!” crled the mil- llonaire, “Oh, yes, you did!” answered Mr. Miller. “You'll remember perfectly well when I tell you what you said. You told me distinctly, ‘Those are two valuable volumes for my libra- 1y’ ”—Harper'’s Weekly. Books of Reference. Newspaper editors like to answer questions addressed to them by their readers—If they are not too hard— and they deem themselves as arbiters rather than as accessorles to a mis- demeanor when they are appealed to for information “to decide a bet.” But they wonder sometimes why certain questions are put to them for arbitra- ment when the answers are to be found in one of three very accessible books—an almanac, a grammar and & small dictionary. 3 These are books of reference that ought to be in every home library, however small. We guess that they are, but that they are sometimes dusty with misuse or out of easy reach on a top shelf. It is well to have an al- manac, a dictionary or an atlas handy when you are reading your newspaper. By consulting them frequently the reader will find his daily paper relates his early historical studies to present events and makes his touch with the world closer and more significant. Get the habit!—New York Mall. A Sporting Parson. The inhibition of a hunting rector by his bishop reminds a correspondent that the Rev. Jack Russell, the fa- mous west country sporting parson, was once cited to appear before the bishop of Exeter to answer charges of neglecting his spiritual and parochial duties, and he was also remonstrated with for keeping and following a pack of hounds. The charges were proved unfounded, and Russell - refused te glve up the sport, which he continued to pursue almoest to the day of hi death In 1883, at the age of cizhty eight. Besides being an insatiable hunter, he was, as his biographer pithily remarks, “a stanch supporter of Devonshire wrestlers, an admirable sparrer and an enthusiastic uphoider of the virtues of Devonshire cider ang cream.” And In the pulpit he tried t: reform conduct rather than to cx pound doctrine and ‘was a stern de nouncer of bad language, strong drink and “the filthy habit of smok- Ing.”—St. James' Gazette. Sarcasm In the Ccmmons. The reluctance of the house of com- mons to adjourn over Derby day re calls a story related of ome of the Ro man Catholic peers who took their seats some four cr five years beforc the passage of the first reform bill aft- er an exclusicn of a century and a half. He gave notice that on a certain day he would make a certain motion, whereupon there arose from his nol colleagues a general cry of “Derby!” The astonished novice named another day, only to be greeted with an equal- Iy unanimous expostulation of “Oaks!" At this he explained that he would have to ask the forgiveness of their lordships; but, having been educated abroad, he was forced to acknowledgsq that he was not familiar with the list of saints’ days in the Anglican calen- dar. 8he Had to Mend Them.

Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body—Make You ll, Languid and Depressed. Sick kidneys.

These organs did not seem to act properly and caused me much discomfort. I decided to try a kidney remedy and procured Doan’s Kidney Pills at the Owl In a short time I was feeling a great deal” better, and am now much stronger.
