Miss Miriam Michelson, the success- ful novelist, was a few years ago a re- porter. Of her life as a reporter she said recently: “I usually had good luck. I was as- signed to good stories, I covered them well, and therefore I liked the busi- ness. Once, though, a horrible misad- venture befell me. “I had interviewed a millionaire’s wife. and, as the lady had been very kind ‘and obliging, I wanted in my ar- ticle to say only such things as would please her. In one paragraph I put the sentence: “‘Immense diamonds sparkled in her ears.’ “The compositor and the proofread- ers must have been ill, or something, for the next morning the sentence ran: ““Diamonds sparkled in her im- mense ea PATENTS.

The report spread and it was not long until almost the whole pop- ulation of Ardmore, particularly the younger portion of it, went out to the old Saunders farm, where the treasure hati been found. Sure enough, it was there, and the Italian was so confounded that he could only mumble incoherently. The coins lay scattered about on the ground and many were picked up and stowed away in pockets. When they were examined tater, however, it was found that they were all counterfeit. The coins, which were good pieces of workmanship, bore the dates 1846 and 1851. Saunders, for whom the farm was named, was a counterfeiter. One day his place was surrounded by govern- ment officials. Saunders escaped them, however, only to be captured a few days afterward in a hotel in Philadek phia. At his home was found a wagon load of moulds and other ma terial for making bogus coins. He was sent to prison for twenty years, but managed to get away in an ingeniously contrived box of his own making. This, unfortunately, was turned wrong side up and Saunders, upon being discov- ered, had to go back to jail to finish his term. Soon afterward he died of paralysis and was buried near Grass- Jand. % The coins found yesterday were specimens of his work. Inspectors from Philadelphia have taken them in charge and are trying to recover those which were carried away by persons who arrived soon after the find was made.—Philadelphia Press The Mediators.

An official of the government print- ing office was talking the other even- ing of the personnel of the women employed in the big printery. He said the civil service rules went into effect. at the office just ten years ago. The result has been to give the Office a much better class of women workers than those who were appointed prior to that time. “The women in the folding rooms the bindery and the press room now,” Said the official, “are largely of the educated class. Some of them are former school teachers, stenographers. and the like, and I will add they are a credit to the government service.” The statement was added that it frequently happens that these workers in the printing office are transferred to important clerical positions in the other departments by reason of the high percentage they make in com- petitive examinations.—Washington Star. Naqgs—Two Kinds. A story is going the rounds about two oil operators who had trouble with their wives, and while the yarn may be a trifle old there are but few who have heard it. Smith and Jones, as they had best be known, were at Kane. Pa., last winter when a report reachea ihem that a wonderful well in a new field near Warren had been struck. They at’once hired a livery team and cutter. A few miles out'the horses hecame unmanageable and ran awa Both occupants of the sleigh were thrown out into the snow, where they sat watching the horses gallop down the road, one animal kicking the front out of the sleigh as it ran. Then the same thought seemed to strike both of them. “I wander if the liveryman will sel' ‘me that team?” questioned Jones. “My case is more serious. For heav- en’s sake let me buy the nigh horse ' want to present it to my wife,” was Smith’s reply. Amounts Received by Royalty. The kaiser receives $3,925,000 a year as king of Prussia, but nothing as em- peror of Germany. Besides this he has an enormous private income, derived from mines, fisheries and estates, of which he owns more than any other man in Prussia. The king of Bavaria receives $1,350,000 a year; the king of Saxony, $875,000; the grand duke of Baden, $400,000. The czar of Russia is paid $6,750,000 for his private use, while each grand duke receives $1,000,000 a year. In addition to these enormous salaries each of these has a large income from royalties and per- quisites of many kinds, of which few outsiders know anything. Aeronaut's Question. © Of Baldwin, the ill-fated aeronaut, a Cleveland man ‘said’ recently: “He once took me with him balloon- ing. The experience was odd ‘and frightening. A gale came up and I be- came airsick—a condition worse than seasickness. It was now necessary to descend, but Baldwin wanted to know in what part of the country we fioat- ed. “With our glasses we swept the land- scape, but in the failing light only one house was visible, and near by a man worked in a field. Baldwin, with great skill, brought down the balloon till it was only about a hundred feet above the man’s head. “ ‘Hil’ he shouted. ‘Hi!’ “The workmart looked up in amaze- ment. “Where are we?’ cried Baldwin, as we darted onward. “Where are ye?’ repeated the man, in his slow, dull way. “*¥es. Where are we?’ “Why, same the reply, almost in- audible, we were now so far pai ‘why, yer up in a balloon, ain't ye? The Wasteful Captain. She was a fair passenger in search of information and the captain was, naturally, only too willing to gratify her. He had explained that the ac- tion of the propeller forced the ship through the water, and added, as a fur- ‘| ther item of information: “We made twenty knots an hour last night, miss.” “Did you really?” said the sweet girl. “And whatever did you do with them all?” The captain went red and his eyes dilated. “Threw them overboard,” he shortly. “Fancy!” she said.—Tit-Bits. said, A Valuable Agent. ‘The glycerine employed in Dr, Pierce’s medicines greatly enhances the medi- cinal properties which it extracts and holds in solution much better than alco- hol would.

We have cured several children under five years of age who’ were addicted to morphine and opium, such addictions having been ac- uired through the mother’s own addiction or direct administration. No constitution is too delicate for the Keeley treatment, as the reme- dies are perfectly harmless. We have cured hundreds of soldiers in the regular army of the United States, and have letters from officers ‘of all rank, from Major- Generals to Lieutenants, commending the Keeley Cure in the highest terms. We have cured senators, congressmen, lawyers, clergymen, business men, merchants, laborers, men of all occupations, and of no oc- cupation, to the number of over 400,000. Among them are 17,000 physicians. ~ ONLY ONE GENUINE KEELEY INSTITUTE IN For Particulars Who Takes the Keeley Cure ? Mrs. T. B. Walker, National Vice President Non-Partisan Christian Temperance Union, says: I have paid great attention to the workings of the remedies-diseovered by Dr. Leslie E. Keeley, for the cure of alcohol, opium and tobaceo habits, ever sin¢’they began to attract attention and especially during the past twelve years. It gives me great pleasure to say that I consider them con- plete, thorough and harmless. I am personally acquainted with large num- bers who have taken the ‘‘Cure,” especially forjliquor, and have never known of one being injured thereby, while in nearly every case the cure has been perfect. I lave made thorough personal investigation in very many cases, who have claimed to be injured, and in every instance have found them the victims of other “Cures” than the Keeley. The Swedish Christian Mission Society of the Northwest. Minneapolis, Minn.. May 29, 1903.—It.is with great pleasure J state that the so- called “Keeley Gold Cure” for drunkards has been, as far as 1 have observed it, a blessing. I know especially a neighbor, who was a deep-down drunkard two years ago, but about that time he took the mentioned cure, and has since hot touehed a drop of liquor. His wife is now full of joy, and praises the Lord and@ the Keeley Cure. He. himself, says he has no thirst for liquor. Yours truly. (Signed) E. AUG. SKOGSBERGH, Pastor of Swedish Tabernacle.
