TIL G BEATER BEATEN.

A farmer came into grocery store
the other day and exhibited to the eyes
of an admiring crowd an enormous egg,
about six inches long, which he aVOwed
to have been laid by one of his own hens,
He had it packed in cotton, and wouldn't
allow any one to handle it for fear of
breaking the phenomenon. The grocery
man examined it with the rest, and, in
tending to chaff the .cOuntryman, said:
'Pshawl I've got something in the
egg line that will beat that"
'I'll bet you So you haven't" said the
cOuDtryman, getting excited.
take it up" replied the grOceryman
and going behind the counter he brought
out a wire egg beater.
"TheTe is something in the egg line
that will beat it, L guess" said he,
reaching out for the stakes.
"HOld on there" said the farmer, "let's
see you beat II" and he handed 1t to the
grocer. The latter held out his hand for
it. but dropped it in surprise on the
counter. where it broke two soup plates
and u platter. 1t was of solid iron,
painted white.
Some folks think they're darnatiOn
CUTE" murmured the farmer as he pOck-
eted the stakes and lit out, "but 'tain't
no use buckin' against the solid facts.'

"A NorARY,s STORY.
How "a Husband Euohered His wife on a
Divorce Case.

How Husband Euehered His wife on a
Divorce Case.
A prominent notary public, in a gen.
eral conversation about his busines this
morning, told an interesting story re-
garding his relations In divorce suit,
in the following language
About year and a half ago a gent
entered whom L recognized to be
prominent business man whose wife
was much admired in society. After
some roundabout talk he asked me sud
denly If would be willing to take an
oath" to keep secret the business he de-
sired me to transact. L was somewhat
suspicious, but finally assented, prOVid-
ed was not asked to involve myself IN
any questionable transaction. / gave
the required pledge and he then explain
ed briefly that his wife was about to sue
for a divorce, and, although he felt very
little reluctance to the separation from
personal motives, he was possessed of a
certain amount of property, and he de-
sired to prevent divorce until he could
have the opportunity of placing his af-
fairs in such shape that he would be
master of the situation, financially
speaking. He thought the chief insti-
gators of his wife were the members of
her family. He admitted the lady had
grounds" for obtaining the divorce,
but he likewise stated he was able to
prove questionable actions OH her part.
This he intended to do by certain wit
nesses, whose affidaVits he wanted me
to prepare. As this was in the line of
my business. | arranged matters so that
he could bring the parties to my office
quietly each day. He brought some
seven or eight witnesses. All were for
mer servants in the family but two; one
OF these was lady friend, a married
nfh 4
wrote the affidaVits in legal form, as
declared by the witnesses, and when
they finished he took them away after
paying me liberal fee. About a week
afterward he walked into my office
smiling very blsndly, and said: "ThOse
papers liked that thing and my wife has
changed her mind about that divorce.
She says divorces are so common now
that they are becoming positively Vul-
gar" and his eyes twinkled with sup
pressed humOr. But then continuing,
81 don't think so when things are even,
and they will be in month or so, then
l'm going to have something to say
about the divorce act myself"
A few weeks afterwaTd | noticed in
the society columns of the POst-Dis-
patch that Mrs. - would spend the
winter i'll the South for the benefit of
her health. That was over year
ago. OOme TWO months slnce divorce
was quietly granted on the score of de-
sertiOn, by default, as asked by the hus-
band. There was no sensation; the
gentleman has gone into business in
another city and the wife has never re-
turned. Those affidavits were very eff
fecJual evidently, and the matter coz
tanned in them was enough to make any
woman hesitate. He had played a |
shrewd game and won. The alimOny
allowed was only nOminal.-St. Louis

HE DrDN'rsEE ALEoK FOR rwo DAYS

A correspondent of one of the London
wspapers-evidently brother of Onr
own Eli Perkins-wTiting from Moscow
of the coronation ceremonies, says: 81
was not one of the favored correspond
ents admitted to the cathedral during
the sacred ceremonies, but | stood out
side in the magnificent assemblage of
guards and minor cOurtiers. At the
conclusion of the ceremonies the pro-
cession moved out of the cath. drai to
the sound of music and the waving of
banners. 1 caught sight of the Gear as
he came down the steps, and | thought
l had never seen on his face before such
an expression of sadness and WEAKNESS.
He was carrying his crown in his hand,
having replaced it with a neat plug hat
which set off with good effect his gOr
geOus robes. AS he passed by me there
was temporary halt in the procession.
He turned and recognized nue.. His eyes
lighted in moment. Che shadow left
his face. He winked in the drOliest
manner imaginable, and leaning over
towards me said in most excellent Eng
lish: I'm hard man on dusty road.
The procession Of glittering sorrow
moved on and l did not see Aleck again
for two days"

A Blessing.

The pain in all his joints became in
tense; fever, with its deteriOrating eff
fects, was now added, and he became
rapidly reduced to the semblance of a
skeleton, while vitality reached its low
est possible condition, and his suffer
ings were of such indescribable charae-
ter that those who loved him sometimes
thought it would be better if he were
called away. At this time, physicians,
well known in this city (Pittsburgh),
directly afterward they announced to
his sOrrowful mother they could give
no hopes of his recovery. At this juno
ture the use of PERUNA was commenced,
and in six weeks VIM. Lincoln Curtis was

Boats, bicycles, and Hay Fever.

Nature has resolved that all the peo-
pie shall not enjoy themselves at once.
With the opening of the season of out
door sports comes the time of trouble
for the poor victims of Hay Fever. For
them flowers have no OdOr, and the sum-
mer little or no beauty. To snuff,
sneeze and wipe their weeping eyes for
three OF four successive months; this Is
their pitiable portion. Whether this
form of catarrh Is called hay-fever, hay
cold, rOse-cOld or rOse-fever, makes no
difference; Ghey suffer just the same.
There is no help in sea-VOyages, there
is no help in high mountain air. These
only Tighten the pocket and leave the
disease unabated. But there is a posi-
tive cure in Ely's Cream Balm. We
could cram three columns with grateful
letters of the rescued. Try 1t and Join
them. IL you continue to suffer it is
because You neglect remedy as sure as
1t is cheap and pleasant.
