A Playful Kis,

Fritz Strauss is n roundish, red-cheek-
ed German youth, and Miss Emma
Kline is described as a very comely lass,
just from the shores of the Baltic. They
live in the same neighborhood in New
ished Fritz by knocking off his cap with
a SNOWFALL cleverly cast. Fritz had seen
Miss Emma several times before, but
not until the snowballing episode did he
consider himself sufficiently acquainted
to express his admiration. On Friday
Miss Emma passed by where Fritz was
chatting with four men. Fritz says that
the girl pinched his arm and drew down
a corner of her mouth as she brushed
past At any rate he remarked that
he was of half q mind to kiss her, when
straightway his companions began to
urge him on, offering wicked wagers
that he didn't dare do such a thing.
Fritz accepted the wagers, stepped bold
ly after Miss Emma, saying: Sag NAL,
du, whilst NIGHT mein schats sein?"
essay, will you be my valentine?'0
and roguishly snatched kiss. An hour
afterward Fritz was summoned before
Justice McKennan on a charge of assault
and battery. Fritz told the magistrate
about the SNOWFALL and then mentioned
the pinch. "Oh! oh! I never. never,
never did such q thing in my life as
pinch q mans arm," exclaimed Miss
Emma. "You snowballed me all in fun,"
interrupted Fritz, "and kissed you all
in fun; you needn't make such a time
about it, for I can get lots of girls to
kiss, II I want to-"

Give Your Heart to It.

The following is from an address to
young men, by the Rev. Robert Collyer,
as given in BdldUin's Monthly:
Remember this-that, with health
and strength to back you, life means
hard work; and hard work on long
lines, with native ability and good con-
duct, means success. will venture to
say that this-as rule, we can trust
is always the story of the young man
who begins life with no advantage of
position or patronage, and makes his
way to a good place. He gives his heart
to what he has to do-not half the time,
but all the time; not grudgingly, but
gladly; and not merely for the sake of q
salary, but because he loves to be at it,
and makes the work in good measure its
own reward. 1t shall come to pass, il
you take hold like this, that men will
say you have genius for what you take
in hand; but you will know that one of
the fine qualities in genius for any
thing is an absorbing love for it, and the
power of intense application by which
every other power is set to its finest
edge, and is directed to the one great
purpose the man holds in his heart and
brain. You may set this truth in what
ever light You will-of business, or work
on the common levels, or work on the
loftiest height-to give your heart to it is
one of the grandest secrets of success. 1t
might seem to you that great many
men go from the bottom to the top Of
the ladder at one jump. 1t is not true.
And allthe men know, who have made
real success of their lives, were hard
climbers"

How the Gay Young Man Took in the
IiYarvman.


They are telling this story about town
man while apparently heavy with tangle-
foot, presented himself to a certain liv-
eryman and asked for a team to take q
ride. '.Never let teams to intoxicated
parties" was the stiff reply. This blunt
rebuff almost sobered the young man.
1t also provoked him to anger, and he
went off into profane whirlwind in the
Bombastes Furioso style, ending with
shaking plethoric wad of greenbacks
in the face of the astonished stable-keep-
er, and offering to buy the best single
team in the barns. Hitch up quick,
and I'll pay you now" he said. 'All
right" was the reply. and $500 team
was prepared, the money paid over, and
as the man drove away the generous
liveryman, who was elated over . good
bargain, said to the purchaser, 'if you
bring the team back all right you can
have the money again" This ended
the first act in the play. Three days
after this, however, there came a climax.
For then it happened that the man re-
turned with the team and demanded
that the stable-keepcr look it over care
fully and see if it was all right. He did
so and pronounced everything in perfect
order. "Well, give me my money and
take your team back them" said the
man.. The stablcman, who never goes
back on his word, counted out the $500
promptly and returned it, and the man
started to go. .Hold on" shouted the
other, '.you owe me Sl2 for the use of
the team" II never pay other people
for using my own team" was the reply
of the gay young man as he sauntered
away and never returned. Waterbury

SAMARITAN NERVINE

Cures Alcoholism, Drunkenness and the habit
of Opium Eating These degrading habits
are 10y far the worst evils that have ever be-
fallen suffering humanity Thousands die
annually from these noXious drugs. The
drunkard drinks liquor not because he likes
it, but for the pleasure of drinking and treat
ing his friends, little thinking that he is on
his road to ruin. Like the Opium Eater, he
first uses the drug in small quantities as n
harmless antidote. The soothing influence
of the drug takes strong hold upon its victim,
leading him on IL his own destruction. The
habits of Opium Eating and Liquor Drinking
are precisely what eating Is to alimentive-
ness, as over-eating first infiames the stom-
ach, which redoubles Its cravings until II
paralyzcs both the stomach and appetite.
So every drink of liquor or dose of opium,
instead of satisfying. only adds to its fierce
fires until 1t consumes the vital force and
then itself. Like the gluttonous tape worm,
IL cries" Give, give, give J" but never
enough until its own capacity devours itclf.
Samaritan Nervine gives instant relief In all
such cases. Ii produces sleep, quitcs the
nerves, builds up the nervous system, aud re-
stores body and mind to u healthy condition.

The Outcome Of Connecticut Mans Ven
ture in Florida,

ture in Florida.
Decidedly the most notable figure in
the history of Florida development is
General Sanford, Connecticut man.
His life has been q brilliant one. He in
herited large fortune, married another,
and by the luckiest ventures added
largely to both. He always lived lavish
" and had loose business methods, but
an irrepressible luck attended all his in
vestments. He made considerable mon
ey in the Wheeler d Wilson Company.
The most of his life has been spent in
diplomatic service. When quite young
he went rs Secretary of Legation to st.
Petersburg, and was for some time act
ing Minister to France in the absence of
Mr.. Rivers, whose chief clerk he was.
For several years he was Minister to
Belgium, and was reappointed by MIR.
Hayes, but the Senate failed to confirm
him.
His investments in Florida began with
the purchase of 10000 acres-a Spanish
grant, afterward known as the Sanford
grant. He paid $500 for this, and at
once began a series of improvements.
He built two hotels at an expense of
about $50, 900, and laid out the town of
Sanford, which now has over 1000 in
habitants. He established grove on
the edge of Lake Monwe at cost Of
$50. 900. and then finding the ground
and exposure unsuitable, transplanted
it and established the now famous Be-
lair grove. lie intended to make this a
nursery of all fruits adapted to Florida,
and therefore imported the best orange,
lemon, lime, fig. citron and guava trees
ut great cost, until he had spent $780,
600 on the grove. 1t is estimated that
he expended over $500, 900 on his grant,
| making the total cost about $3.50, 900.
He sold probably about 100000 worth
of lands and lots to settlers, and short
time since sold the bulk of the rest to al
English company for 100000. He re-
served however, his Belair grove, worth
| $4,000. Some say that he also reserv-
| ed the two hotels, and others that he re-
served also One-third of what he sold,
and in the meantime 5000 acres have
been added by later purchase. He clear.
ed very handsome fortune by his
