what Tommy Did"

John Haberton author of "Helen's
Babies" says: "What Tommy Did"
would be worthy of the serious con-
sideration of parents if it were posi-
BILE for any one to be other than Wild
ly mirthful over the saintliness and
dreadfulness of the little hero.
Tommy is an ideal boy-one of the
kind which are by turns uncomfortable
and angelic, which changes parents
from young to old, and old to young
again many times day. We pity
parents who fail to read this book;
there is no time in the day, nor any
day in the week, in which its pages
will not dispel care" 1t has just

Roman Cure Lemons.

A new use lemons are being put to
deserves notice. 1t is said to be late
discovery by a Roman physician. He
was led to its trial by its general
healthy effects, and its use has spread
to all the world, and the medical
journals are full of instances of its
wonderful effects. The Pontine
Marshes, near Rome, Italy, have been
the fruitful source of miasmatic dis
eases from so far back the men,
DRY of man goeth not so far, but it has
at last found its master in the lemon.
Quinine is to be used no more by the
votaries of the "ROman cure" 1t is
certainly far more pleasant to the
stomach and head than quinine. :,
The way it is prepared is as follows;
Cut the lemon very fine, rind and all /,
put in a pint of water, and boil to a
half-pint, then strain and bottle for
use. Does for a man, tablespoon
full Just before each meal; to woman
or child, less in proportion. 1t has
never failed when fairly tried, and it
has been used where quinine and
arsenic have failed. A prominent
New York physician says he has been
using it exclusively in place of qui-
nine year, and has never failed in a
single instance. 1t must be taken on
an empty stomach at least an hour
before eating. If the stomach will
bear it, more than a tablespoonful
may be taken. One lemon, general
ly, will effect a cure, though some
times more will have to be taken
1t is SO simple any one can prepare
it. 1t will turn a mans mouth
wrong side out unless he is a marble
bust.

Possibilities in a Word.

A gentleman who was away from
home was writing to his wife from
the Office of a hotel, when he paused
a moment in his occupation and look
ed perplexed; then he touched the
arm of another gentleman sitting
near him in timid, deprecating way.
Excuse me, sir, "he said courte-
ously, "but l am puzzled how to spell
word l desire to WRITE" and he
pronounced it carefully.
"Don't mention it," responded the
other with the heartiness of good
fellowship. 81 rather flatter myself
that spelling is my strong point.
E-X-t-a-see-there! Glad to accom-
modate you"
"Thank YOU" said the gentleman
who was writing the letter. "My
wife is so particular that lam ashamed
of my poor spelling, as it constantly
annoys her. can tackle ordinary
words easy enough, but those duplex
STANDARDIZATION, double and twist
throwers are Goo much for me-" and
he resumed his letter with relieved
look.
"Pardon me-" remarked a gentle
man who had been DOING in his
chair, "but l think there is a slight
mistake in photography here. Ihave
always spelled the word e-x-t-a-c-y."
"Gentlemen," said a clerical look
ing man, coming forward, 81 am a
professor inacollege, and positive that
the letter x is not in the word at all,
1t is spelled 'e-c-s-t-a-c-y."
"Say! ain'tyoufellows all wrong?''
inquired long-legged traveller, who
had been listening earnestly to the
discussion. 81 teach spellin' schulz
winters, out in Arkansaw, and I've
allus spelt that there word 'eggstazy.
Eff that don't spell it, what do it spell
them"
The bewildered traveller concluded
that it would be as well to spell the
word in his own way, and so wrote
to his wife that no pen could describe
his e-k-s-t-a-c-e on receiving a lettel
from her.
All of which methods of spelling
the word differ from Mr.. Noah Web
ster's.

A Valuable Book.

We have just received from the
enterprising publishers, A. HI. An
drews & Co. a most useful little vol
ume, suggestively called "Look
Within for Five Thousand Facts that
Everybody Wants to Know" 1t
contains 70 pages Of condensed infor-
nation on Mechanics, Statistics,
History, Medicine, Astronomy,
Finance, Mythology, Education,
Mathematics, The Bible, Politics,
Agriculture, Religion, Science, Tenn
perance, Trade, ETC., etc, in fact there
seems to be something for everybody
and nothing that some one will not
be glad to know. 1t is embellished
with a number of colored diagrams,
and is by far the most valuable and
complete Pocket Cyclop@dia we have
yet seen. 1t is offered for sale at the
exceedingly low price of % cents, for
which sum in stamps it will be sent
postpaid by the publishers, A. H.
Andrews & Co., Chicago.

purpose of opposing the movement.
1t is also announced that the organi-
zation intends to prevent a series of
Sunday night concerts, which were
to have been given in the theatres,
and to suppress the sale ofnewspapers
upon the streets on Sundays.
The alarming increase of crime
which has developed here of late is a
general theme of comment. There
were no less than three murders, sew
eral assaults and a series Of robberies
last week, while during the present
week there has been one murder, and
a number of robberies and cases of
house-breaking.
Gen. John Eaton, who has held the
Office of Commissioner of Education
since the organization of the Bureau,
has rendered his resignation, stating
as his reason that on account Of fail
ing health he finds it desirable that
he should withdraw from arduous
duties imposed by the Office. He
will accept a college presidency,
which has been rendered him.

Lafagan's Logic.

Chicago Ledger.
| have read Of men who were con-
tent if beaten in wrong because they
could not win in the right, but | have
never yet met such a one. 1t isn't
human nature, but anything to beat
the other fellow is.
If San eye for an eye and a tooth
for tOOth' law of Bible days was
enforced now we would have more
disfgured people than anything else.
In all human wisdom there is an
occasional grain of folly.
My young friend, remember this:
You may repent of severity, but
never of humanity.
Envy is the sharp grit which ag-
gravates existence and mars the hap
piness of a whole life.
Ministers preach upon charity more
than any other one of the virtues,
and yet believe it is practiced less
than any two others of the Bibles
Advertisements.
Life cannot be composed of strug-
giles only. Some have theirs in
youth, Others in middle age, and
many in old age, but give me my
medicine while young and buoyant.
By working naturally and steadily
man can accomplish what the Crea-
tor meant him to, and it will be his
best achievement, too.
You can shut the door in the face
of enemies, but evil will squeeze
through the key-hole.
Cultivate the lesser virtues and the
larger ones will become second ma
ture.
Rely upon hard work, not smart
ness, young man, and give industry
a chance to get its graft in.
The majority of men begin at the
bottom of the ladder, and many of
them eventually end there.
| don't care if you are honorable.
The world expects you to prove it,
and will give you chance, too.
l believe in the "make or break"
theory, and have great confidence in
those who persist in hope of winning,
even if the bottom of the enterprise
falls plumb through as the ultima
tum.
Policy makes all men honest for
the time being.
There is no person but what has at
some time or other, or does now, hope
to better his or her condition. Hope
is given us to piece out an existence
which otherwise would be unendur-
able.
Many are now working because
pride is the incentive, and not because
they want to. Hence pride is, after
all, a virtue with many.

Value of Bran.

Spirit of the Farm.
We have heard much complaint
among farmers of the poor character
of the bran obtained from mills grind
ing by the new process. They say
the bran is cleared of every particle
of starch, leaving a substance like
sawdust, and they express their belief
that it is, of little more value than
sawdust. The new process simply
brushes the grains of wheat, and the
bran comes off almost entire, making
rough-looking substance. Some
millers, to put better appearance on
it, grind it over to make it have the
appearance of the old bran obtained
by grinding, adding little shorts to
it to give it a better color, and hence
a better sale. Of course, when this
is done, the farmer must pay little
more for it. The grinding, by reduc-
ing the size of the particles, makes it
more digestible; but the addition of
the starch is no advantage, as the
nearer the bran in pure, freer from
all other ingredients, the better it is
as cattle food. Bran contains a larger
per cent. of proteine than any other
food, which is the base of albumen
and fibrine; in other words, is almost
pure gluten, and is therefore the
very best of food, supplying muscle
and enriching the blood. We would
therefore advise feeders to buy the
coarser article, and thus save the adj
ditional expense put on it for regrind-
ing. Bran has another marked value
to farmers-itadds greatly to the value
of manure. Those cattle fed on bran
are worth their keep for the manure
they drop.

Dear Mrs. Jones, Pm glad you called
hoped you'd come today
Now have you beard what awful things
They tell Of Elder Gray?
You haven't? Why, heard last night,
That some one heard in town,
He went to see the Black Crook show,
Along with Deacon Brown.
But don't you tell-Pm sure you won't
Perhaps it isn't so;
But, really, that is what they say
don't pretend to know.
Now, Mrs. Jones, do you suppose
That Mr., Smith will cheat?
Pm told by those who ought to know
He swindles on his meat.
Two ounces short pound they say,
And Just the same on tea,
And he a member in the church.
AAlOng with you and me
But don't you tell-Im sure you won't!
Perhaps it isn't So
But really, that is what they say
don't pretend to know.
They say that Thompson and his wife
Just quarrel night and day.
He's jealous. Well, perhaps there's cause
That's not for me to say.
The way that woman puts on air
New hat a0d diamond ring,
And CAD, CAD, gadding all the time,
With beaux upon her string.
But don't you tell-Im sure you won't!
Perhapsit isn't So.
But, really, that is what they say
don't pretend to know.
They say that Mrs Johnson's got
A new silk dress, and she
Don't pay her washing bill Pm told
1t came quite straight to me.
It's limited that her husband drinks
And CANDLES on the sly;
And he a member of the church,
Along with you and |.
But don't you tell-Im sure you won't!
Perhaps it isn't so;
But, really, that is what they say
don't pretend to know.
