went into committee of the whole on the
situation. If we should undertake to row
our craft further from the fire, we would
soon be overcome, and then be blown di-
rectly into it. The unanimous verdict was
that we would take our chances there. The
fire was around us, above us, everywhere.
The water was full of struggling people.
We held to the stick. Two of us would
stand on the rock at time and anchor the
rest, who floated like sea weeds from along
the sides of the timber When the hot air
swept down upon us, we put our faces close

"Wr saw it was useless for us to try to

TWELVE REASONS
Why the Trade give to the Excelsior Diary the
preference over all Others
1st. 1t is printed on fine rose tint paper.
I'd. The same quality OF paper is used through
the entire line, giving Just as good paper in
cheap book as In a high priced one.
sd. 1t is the best finished Diary in the
market.
4th. We give you 2s5 different styles to select
FROM
9th. Quite number OF the best selling pat
terms are made by no other house.
9Th. The pocket-book styles are all arranged
to suit the business man.
18th. Retailers want Diary that is neat, at
tractlve and saleable.
sth. You will find fewer of them among tiie.
old stock of dealers, as they sell better than
any other Diary.
9th. The sale Of the Excelsior has increased
more than 800 per cent in the last four years,
which fact shows that the retailer appreciates
them.
10th. We give attractive show cards and post
ers, and plenty OF them.
18th. They cost no more, and no less than
other Daries-all lists and discounts being
uniform.
10th. The Excelsior is the best retailing
Diary offered to the trade.
We intend to visit all dealers in Diaries early
In the season. II there are any, however, that
we do not reach, we shall be pleased to send
them, on application, line OF samples to eX-
anime in comparison with other goods.
Early orders are always filled complete, while
late orders are apt to find the assortment
broken, and frequently the best selling styles
used up. 1t is good plan to put In orders early
as payday comes no sooner than with late or
ders. We can deliver goods any time after LIST
of October.

AN EVERYDAY SCENE.

Did you ever see man fish around in
the bottom of tub of water for piece
of soap? At the first attempt he simply
reaches down upon it to pick it up, and
isvery much surprised to find that he
hasn't got it. Then he approaches it
more cautiously, puts his hand over it,
and then comes down noiselessly until
he gets every finger upon it, and then
squeezes it tight, and-misses it. He
looks at it for q moment before making
another effort, and fills up the interval
with few remarks. The third attempt
is sort of semi-circle, described with a
great deal of sagacity, but is a failure.
Other remarks follow. Then he makes
q succession of dives, and slops the
water over his clothes, and drenches the
carpet, and catches hold of the soap
several times, and let's go of it again,
and screams at the top of his voice, vnd
finally, IN perfect despair, sits down on
the floor and actually howls.-Danbury

FoR some time past the Catholic cler-
gy of Brazil have been waging a bitter
war upon the Masons, whom they have
prescribed and prosecuted to the extent
of their power. 1t appears from advices
lately received, that the controversy is
now dividing the cabinet, and that there
is likely to be crisis in consequence.
This will make the matter a political
question, and it may be expected that
the struggle which took place in this
country about thirty years ago, will be
repeated in the dominion of Don Pedro.

TIE LATE JUDGE CHASE.

Salmon Portland Chase was born In
Cornish, N. H., Jan. 13, 1903, and had
just entered his 66th year. In 1915 his
father removed to Keene, N. b. In
1890, when IL years old, his father being
dead. he went to Worthington, O., where
he was under the care of his uncle,
Philander Chase, Bishop Of Ohio. He
attended the Cincinnati College for one
year, and, returning to New Hampshire,
in 1924 entered Dartmouth College, and
graduated in 1926. The next winter he
opened private school in Washington
City. In 1929 was admitted to the bar,
having read law in the Office of At
torney- ey-General Writ. In 1880, he re-
turned to Cincinnati, and has ever since
made his home in Ohio. He became
early identified with the Anti Slavery
party, and was an earnest and steadfast
opponent of the slave power. He was
elected to the United States Senate from
Ohio in 1849. In that body he strongly
opposed the compromise measures
proposed by Mr.. Clay, and, by way
of amendments, sought to exclude
slavery from the Territories. In 1854,
he strenuously opposed the Kansas
Nebraska act; prepared an address to
the people demonstrating against it, and
he continued his opposition to it down
to the hour of its passage. In 1855, he
retired from the Senate, and that same
year was elected Governor of Ohio. In
1857, he YVES again elected, and closed
his second term in January, 1860. On
the 4th of March, 1861, he entered Mr..
Lincoln's Cabinet as Secretary of the
Treasury. This latter Office he resigned
on the Sd of June, 1854, and on the 9Th
of December, in the same year, he was
appointed by Mr.. Lincoln Chief Justice
of the United States, to succeed Judge
Taney.
