of flesh, but after using Zopesa claims
that he is sound man, and now weighs

and readily consented to allow us to use
his name for reference.

liver and health to the urine. This

Stealinr b peage,


The American baggage system, adj
mirable as it is, in comparison with the
no system of some European countries,
is not wholly proof against fraud. Some
years ago there was much complaint
among passengers bound for Saratoga,
that checks were transferred from valu-
able to worthless trunks while they were
being moved from the main line of the
New York Central railroad to the side
track. Watchfulness on the part of the
officials soon put an end to the fraud.
Something of the same kind is now be-
ing practiced in the White Mountain
regions. where trunks lie around loose
on platforms. The Dayton Journal says
q Daytonian in the mountains lately
heard the baggage people call out All.
assigning it to Boston. As this was the
number he held, and did not want his
trunk to go there, he protested. His
next discovery was that All was not at
tached to his trunk. but to one of which
he knew nothing. After much fuss he
proved property in the large trunk by
unlocking it, after previously describing
its contents, and thus showed that some
rascal had planned to get a better stored
trunk than his own Cincinnati Ga

Whipped and Cleawa,

In the early days of Missouri, man
was tried and convicted for stealing a
horse. The court sentenced him to re-
ceive thirty-nine lashes on his bare back.
An acquaintance, meeting him shortly
after he had been punished and dis
charged, asked him how he came out of
it.
"Oh, first rate" was the prompt re-
ply; whipped and cleared"
A thief in a California miners camp
once had similar experience. In the
early days of mining every one was too
well off to steal, and the miners kept
their sacks of gold dust in their tents
But as gold became more difficult to find,
lazy fellows began to think it easier to
steal than to dig. One day well
dressed fellow stole some gold from a
miner, and mounted on swift horse,
fled from the camp. He was followed
arrested, and tried before magistrate
appointed by the miners, and promptly
convicted. The grim humor of min
ing community shone in the sentence:
The court Thinks said the magis-
the stolen gold to its owner"
The thief thinking that he was about
to be let off easily, handed it over. Then
the court pleasantly suggested that it
would be right for the thief to pay the
costs of the trial He made no objec-
ton to this Judgment, and promptly
handed out two ounces-thirty-tw dol
lars-of gold dust, the amount of the
costs.
Now" said the magistrate, with the
utmost blandness, ''there is another part
of the sentence of this court, which has
not yet been mentioned; and that is that
you receive thirty-nine lashes ON your
bare back, well laid on"
The thief was whipped and cleared. !"

What a Gentleman Is!

THE essential characteristics of a
gentleman" says Mr.. Mathews, ''are
not an outward varnish or veneer, but
inward qualities, developed in the
heart'
The drover was gentleman at heart,
and in speech also, of whom this anec-
dote is told. He was driving cattle to
market one day when the snow was
deep, save on the highway. The drove
compelled lady to turn out of the road
and tread in the deep snow.
Madam" said the drover, taking off
his hat, IF the cattle knew as well as l
what they should do, you would not

These anecdotes show what genuine
politeness is. 1t is kindly spirit which
expresses itself kindly to all. OF one
who possesses it the remark is never
made, He can be a gentleman when be
pleases." As MIR. Matthews says-and
we wish boys to memorize the saying
'.He who can be a gentleman when be
pleases, never pleases to be anything
else.n

A Suieide With One Eve Omen.

A teacher at San Francisco college
who was given TO drink, became so NOR
titled at the failure of benefit given
him by a literary society of his pupils
that he took dose of laudanum. He
was found before death rescued him
from teaching and taken TO the city
prison, where he was dosed with coffee,
walked up and down the asphaltum
floor of the jail, and subjected to other
strong restorative measures. Presently
Police Surgeon Stiyers, for whom mes
senger had been dispatched, arrived
The suicidal educator had been taken
into the kitchen and seated on the dough
trough to make it all the more conYe-
nient for the attendants to administer
reviving kicks to his shins When DIR.
Stiyers came out the reporters surround
ed him for information. The doctor re-
piled:
Gentlemen, it's the most extraordi-
nary case / ever saw. The medical
books have no record of it's parallel.
The left eye shows every sign Of opium
poisoning. The pupil is contracted to a
pins point. But the right eye is what
gets me. The pupil is sull-dilated; in
deed, it has clear and intelligent ex-
preston, while, as you can see, the man
is in state almost of coma"
The doctor paused moment thought
fully, and then continued:
you've no doubt heard of the case
of O'Glovanni, who in Ballyforence in
1858 pushed pikestaff into his right
ear?''
The reporters at once declared that
they knew all about it.
WELL" said the doctor, Sin that case
the right eye fell out and was discovered
in the vest pocket of the patient, while
the left retained look of intelligence
until the tibla was severed and the
metatarsus extracted. Then the CLASSY
expression of death supervened. This
case is still more remarkable"
Here small and thin reporter STEP
ped up. He had a very large cigar be-
tween his teeth, and his manner was ex-
ceedingly assured and familiar.
"Doc," he said, ''you say that the stiff
inside has one pupil contracted, as it
ought to be when a man has flooded
himself with laudanumP"
Eyes, sir.'
''And the other pupil is wide open, as
if on the qui yive for point on the
stock r,arket?"
Eyes, sir.''
''P'raps then" said the small reporter,
'the phenomenon may be explained
when you catch onto the fact that the
rooster in the kitchen has got one glass
eye"
The doctor stood for moment, glared
around, and shout of combined laugh
ter smote him in the back as he fled
through lobby into the prison hospital.

A tif-Necked Farmer.

A California farmer, who had his neck
broken by driving into his barn door,
which was too low for him, was told by
a doctor that there were 999 chances in
1000 against his recovery. He took the
one chance and was strapped to board
with kind of fence supporting his neck,
where he was forced to lie, without
moving, for two months. The slightest
motion would have crushed the spinal
column and put an end to him. At the
end of five weeks an attendant happen
ed to say that aman who could live with
broken neck like that never could be
hung. This made him laugh, in conse-
quence of which the fastenings were
loosened. and the whole work of heal
ing came very near having to be done
all over AGAIN.
