Nervousness.

One form Of nervousness leads man
to suppose himself seriously i'll, when,
in reality, he is only more nervous thar
usual. He flies to physician for relief,
and often ends by persuading himself
into severe illness. The fact is, merry.
GUS people waste great deal Of money
confidence, and worry on their nervous
ness. It is perhaps disagreeable to very
uncomely people that they are not
beautiful; adult intelligent people of
defective education lament the disad-
vantages of their youth persons who
desire to be religious, and yet are intel
lectually skeptical, are frequently made
miserable by the conviction that they
are incapable Of acquiring piety. A
man with Roman nose may as well be-
vail his incapacity to change the organ
into Grecian outline as for nervous peo-
pie to lament that they cannot discharge
nervousness from their physical organ
izaton. It cannot be expelled. It is
there to stay. But self control and self
restraint will do much toward obviating
the evil, and are more efficacious than
the attendance of any physician.

A Fighting EDITORS Work.

A Western editor, whose style of writ
ing was calculated to rouse people to
deeds of gore, being himself not much
on the muscle, found it necessary to
keep fighting editor, and he had a
speaking tube connected with the heel
er's room to call him when danger re-
quired. One day gentleman, whom
the editor had referred to as cross-eyed
dromedary, came in to request correc-
ton, and as the fighting editor was out he
didn't respond to the signal of distress,
and while the editor and the visitor
were on the floor under the desk the
former agreed to correct the mistake
and the irate man left. Pretty soon a
gentleman from the rural districts came
in to give the editor a big squash and
get notice, and about that time the
fighting editor returned and a boy in his
room told him his boss wanted help.
The man of war was quick to respond, and
dashing into the chiefs room, and
seeing the latter in a somewhat dam
aged condition, the result of his previous
visit, he thought the countryman was
the cause of it and clutched him, and after
staving up some furniture ran the victim
across the street to where ON empty
hearse was standing in front of an I'M
dertaker's shop. Into the vehicle he
jammed the farmer and slammed the
door. The commotion he had created
scared the horses and they started off on
dead run. People soon noticed the
runaway and ran after it and were
shocked at beholding the hearse col
Tide with a post and become complete
wreck; and their horror at seeing hui
man body precipitated to the sidewalk
was only equaled by their amazement
at seeing it spring nimbly to it's feet and
take off across the country yelling muir
der. They thought it was an attempt
to bury man alive, and part Of them
went to get the undertaken to lynch him,
while the rest pursued the farmer, who
was found hidden in swamp. And,
after he was brought in, it took over
three hours to get matters explained,
and then the farmer went before a
Justice Of the Peace and made afida-
Wit that he hoped to be struck by
lightning if he ever entered a newspa-
per office again.

Almost q Defeat.

Il on a train that had special car with
Grant, the then President, on board,

q cigar he had bought at way station.
He noticed the President occasionally
looking that way, and finally railroad
official came out and said the General

some time, and had at last begged him

lhappy-first, to accommodate the Presi-
adent Of the United States, and, second,
to get rid Of one Of the worst cigars he
lever smoked. With this warning he sent
Din his remaining weed. The General ac-
acknowledged the courtesy by removing
ohis hat, and bit the end off Of the cigar,
lighted it and looked happy. He had
Vtaken but one OF two putfs, however,

Imam on the platform watched him with
