A coLoRED preacher in Kentucky
called on tobacco dealer for sub
scription in aid of the church over
which he presided, and when the dealer
said he ought to go to work and earn
something for the church instead of
begging, offered to work if the dealer
would employ him. Tho dealer agreed ;
the negro preacher laid aside his clerical
coat and labored assiduously in the fac
tory all day, and at sunset received
$50 check in payment.

Now THAT the President of the
French republic is q civilian, the black
dress coat reigns supreme. The height
Of courtesy and delicacy consists in
avoiding military uniform. There is,
too, a great and grave question as to
whether the white cravat ought not to
give way to the black cravat. The old
men prefer the latter and the young
men the former. There are, therefore,
two camps. In many of the crack
clubs, however, the black cravat has
been adopted exclusively for dinners.

For some years about 1912 our British
brethren made several vain attempts to
capture "Old Ironsides," our famous
frigate Constitution. Now they have
recently been at it again with the like
result. The OLE vessel-concerning the
identity of which, however, there may
be properly as much doubt as that of
the boys jack-knife, which had had new
blades and new handles-beiDg in use as
school ship, ran ashore off Dorset, and
some British citizens helped her of.
subsequently they applied to Sir r.
Phillimore to arrest her for those salvage
services, but he held that, it being war
frigate of the United States navy, and
having on board cargo for national
purposes, it was not amenable to the
civil jurisdiction of that country. He
had previously doubted the same point,
and Lord Stowell had declined to pro-
nounce an opinion. The doctrine was
laid down by Chief Justice Marshall.

Why New Workers Wear Out Early

Burleighs Letter to Boston Journal
Several of our leading doctors give il
as their opinion that 40 man who takes
his own life is in his right mind. It is
also agreed that the style of living in
New York, and the style of doing bust
ness, predisposes man to that morbid
condition that induces him to take his
life. The rush, the drive and excltment
are almost continuous. Men who are
good for anything have their hands full
and their heads full. The brain is like a
hot-box on railroad train--only men
hold up ON the train, and they don't on
the street. There's hardly prominent
man doing business in the Stock Elk
change who has not work enough on
hand for half q dozen men. Asan illus
tration: The President at one of our
leading banks has been under the doc.
tors care for over a year. He comes
down to the bank every morning at 20
o'clock, and remains till O'Clock D. m.
Besides the immense business ct his own
institution, at II o'clock he goes down
to Wall street, where he is silent part,
ner in stock house. At O'Clock he Is
back again at the bank. His private Of
fee is crowded with the prominent bust
ness men of New York. He has at least
six institutions in which he is manager,
a director or president. These institu-
tons represent every variety of invest
ments. Besides this, he is at the head of
an immense denomination, financially.
and gave last year $4,000 to help the
educational interests Of his chtIon out OF
a hard place. The different societies
that he represents keep him without a
moments leisure through the 6s5, LAD
his evenings are all consumed in business.
I heard him say last week that he never
slept until after o'clock in the morn
ing. How such man lives with such a
pressure upon him is marvellous. He, OF
course, won't live out half his days. He's

TheFTrue way to Invigorate.

The true way to invigorate feeble system
is to infuse activity into the operations of the
stomach, that wondrous alembic in which the
foo is transmitted into the constituents
of blood, the chief element of our vitality.
HostetteI's Stomach Bitters, because it &C
complishes this end, is greatly to be preferred
to many so called tonics, useful indeed as ap-
petiZers, but imperative as aids to digestion
and assimilation. This sterling cordial while
it lnvigorates the stomach, BEAUTIFULLY slim
ulates the liver, bowels, and kidneys, ensuring
the escape through the regular channels of
effete and useless matter thrown off by the
system, which is thus purified as well as in
vigorated by it, Its tonic influence is soon
made manifest by an increase of vital energy
and a more active and regular discharge Of
every physical function, and it has the further
effect of rendering the system unassailable by
malarial epidemics.
