"A Coward Seeks q Pension.

At a club dinner in New York recent
ly an examining surgeon related the fol-
lowing incident. During the war he
was surgeon of an infantry regiment.
When the regiment first went into bat
tie he observed, sitting behind n big
tree, at a safe distance from the fighting
line, the Captain of one of the compan-
les. "What + you doing here, Cap
tain?' asked the doctor. ''I'mnot feel

voice. The surgeon was too busy look.

later the regiment again got under fire,

fact is, doctor, Tn not exactly sick.

doing the country a service whei, a few
days afterward, he recommended that
the man be discharged on the ground
Of general disability. He heard nothing
of the Captain until l6 years later,
when he received aletter from the Pen

A Stranger in Arixona

ooh, we amt entirely without amuse-
ments and sports in Arizona" said a
bearded passenger from the southwest.
"Of course, theaytres aud circuses
IRE pretty sca'ce, and there hain't 'nough
level ground in the territory to play a
game of baseball on. But we has our
fun all the same. In the town where /
live-mind you, we are gettin' civilized
out there, and have towns now in
stead of mere camps-in my town our
best sport is with a colored man named
Sam. Hess big, strong jack-that is,
he was. Poor fellow, he tempted fate
too often and got took in finally. Sam
made his livin' furnishing fun for the
boys. He would draw a chalk line on
the floor, get down in front Of it on all
tours, and for ten cents let any man
take a big bag of sand and crack him
one from behind. If the striker
knocked Sam over the line he got his
money back. Well, this sport went
along several months, until one day a
wicked-looking stranger comes to town.
He saw Sam taking in the dimes in the
hotel bar-room, where the stranger was
a pretty good customer himself already.
Will We let me have a lick at
ye for a dine?" he inquired of Sam.
'Sartinly, sab; three for q quarter.
Take a quarters wuth?' The stranger
said he guessed one would be enough.
Sam got down on all tours. The strang-
or then picked up the sandbag. Sam
Topped his head down and grinned be-
tween his legs at the striker. The
sandbag is raised high in the air, the
wicked looking stranger looks wickeder
out of his eyes, and we get on to his
powerful frame and arms all of a sudden.
Like q stroke O. lightning down comes
the bag-poor Sam" "Did it hurt the
niger much?" Hurt him? Nobody
knows. The fact is, when he got down
on the floor his head was pointed toward
the wide-open door of the bar-room, out
of which we could look down the noun
tain side. Sam catapulted out O. that
door and hain't been seen since. One

Ex-MayorP owderly of Scranton, Pa,
says he never believed such degradation
possible as he has just witnessed in the
Connellsville coke region of Pennsyl-
vania among the Hungarians. At one
of the ovens he saw woman half naked
drawing the hot coke from the chamber.
She had no covering on her head and
very little on her person. Her appear
nee was that of one whose spirit had
been broken by hardship and hard work
Her attire consisted of a coarse chemise
and apair o cowhide boots. In a freight
car close by stood another woman stow
ing the coke as it came to the car. She
stood in the doorway and was dressed
in a rough, loose fitting outer garment
and an apron. Her person from the
waist up was exposed. Her feet were
encased IN q pair of heavy shoes, and
her legs We're exposed from the knee
down. Other scenes were worse than
these. These women are not employed
by the corporations, but assist their
husbands and fathers in their labor.

The effect that the disappearance

The effect that the disappearance Of
forests has upon climate receives fresh
illustration almost every day. In Italy
the clearing of the Apennines is be-
lieved to have seriously changed the
climate of the Pc valley, and now the
African s%irocco, never known to the
armies of ancient Rome, breathes its
hot, blithing breath oyer the right bank
Of the river in the territory of Parma.
The removal Ct the pine forests near
Ravenna inIHced the same desolating
wind; and the same destruction Of the
old forests of Vosges and of the Ce-
vennes has had like deteriorating in
fuences upon the climate. In Egypt,
where, during the French occupation in
1898, not a drop of rain fell for sixteen
months. and where from time immem-
orial the country has been o rainless bed
of sand. Mohammed Ali, by planting
his millions of fig and orange trees, has
seen his country blessed with an annual
:ainfall of several inches.

even if you have chronic nasal catarrh in its

ward has for many years been offered by the
proprietors Of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, for
any case of catarrh they cannot cure, yet not
withstanding that thousands use the Remedy
they are seldom called upon to pay the reward,
and when they have been SO called upon they
have universally found that the failure to cure
was wholly due to some overlooked complica-
ton, usually easily removed by a slight modi-
fication of the treatment. Therefore, if this
should meet the eye of anybody who has made
faithful trial of this great and world-famed

A Yale Student Who Doesn't Relish Visits
From Home.

- from A0m0. TIr.
George W. Peck of Peck's sun was in
New Haven recently, and wrote 10 his
paper concerning Yale students: Many
of them are bright, smart young fellows,
but plenty of them have that sickly,
cigarette-smoking, dude, darn-fool look
that makes you feel like knocking them
down with a stocking full of soft-soap,
or blowing their brains out with u cork
from a soda water bottle. There was
one at dinner at the hotel with his faith
er, and I never felt so sorry for an old
man in my life. He came up on the train
with us, and he talked to several about
his coming from the west, where he is
a lumberman, to see his boy who is at
college. The old man was quite fresh,
but he was evidently q good father to
his boy. The boy met him at the depot,
and it wa plainly a case where the 20
had rather the father had not come.
He was ashamed Of the old man. That
is the plain English of it, and he was
cross when the father put his arms
around his neck and kissed him. Poo,
fool. That father was proud that he
was able, by a life of hard work and
hardships, to educate the boy; and he
was proud to see him looking SO we'll.
though he did look a little edge-wise at
these bicycle clothes the boy
had on, and the cigarette. The
boy asked about mother, and he
seemed ashamed when the father said,
loud enough for the passengers in the
depot to hear: "Your ma was coming
on with me, but last Sunday she went
out with the hired girl to pick some COW
slips for greens, and she got her feet
wet, and has been laid up with rheuma-
tiz. You know your ma always
would have the first mess of cowsiip
green's" The boy steered mis- father
out of the depot and down a back street,
and we did not see them again until
dinner time at the best hotel, and they
sat at the same table. Poor old man,
he couldn't do anything right at the
table, and the boy looked at his father
as though it was the last hair that broke
his back when the old man shoveled
some corned beef and cabbage into his
mouth with his knife, and said as he
held up his knife to make gestures with:
They don't know how to corn beef in
this tavern. If they would put a little
saltpetre in that brine it would
take the braklsh taste out of the beef"
Poor fool boy, his fathers country ways
took away his appetite and he looked
crushed. He tried to talk about things
at home, but the old man would talk
about "Your Aunt Samantha's cancer, -
or "Your Uncle Alexis bronchitis" I'M
til the boy thought he would sink. He
tried to talk about work in the pinery,
but the old man wanted to talk about
work at college, and the boy would
twirl his little mustache, feel of the
bangs on his forehead, and paralyze the
father about Greek roots till the old
man looked tired. The boy gotthrough
dinner alive and got his father out of
the dining room, and several times as
we drove around we saw them walking
on back streets, and when we all took
the train the old maj was on board, but
ne hadn't much to say.

Hebert Spencer in his mind. In

meals. If a unch-basket is taken, a
bottle of cold tea with milk and sugar,
or coffee ditto, provided that the coffee
is good, will be found most refreshing.

For more than five years past a member of
