ONLY IN FuN.--Mr.. W. r. Muller
called on us last Saturday and said that
the remarks made by him 1T the Agri-
cultural Society meeting the Saturday
before, to the eject that Mr.. Bennet
was disgrace TO the English nation,
was only intended in q jocular way,
and not is a serious remark at all. So
far as Mr., Bennett is concerned, this
correction is unnecessary, as every one
knows him to be an honest, upright
gentleman, and Il credit to the English
or any other nation, and it is only
made to set Mr. Muller right on the
record.

A CoRRECTION.--In the report Of the
Agricultural Society published last
week DR.. J. W. Summers was reported
as saying that the State Agricultural
Department WAS, supported by the
phosphate royalty. This was u mis-
take. What DR.. Summers did say was
that the State Agricultural Depart
ment was supported by the privilege
tax which is something altogether
different from the phosphate royalty.
We checrfullv make the correction: ;s
it places DR.. Summers in false position
before the people Of the State.

great vices, one of which was drunken

then committed the other two.-ReU..

AT the conclusion of the recent auc-
ton sale of the fixtures of his saloon in
New York, Paul Boynton, the famous
swimmer, said: Gentlemen, / thank

tivate bricks than touch the gin trade

form would certainly have TO be made
as to the saloons of the city. Out Of

Guided in the present assizes, no less
than thirteen or fourteen of them had
taken place in saloons; the proportion
showing plainly the connection OF
crime with liquor.
The Legislature of Iowa is consid-

right to make himself over into

a fowl winch crowed at the beginning OF
each watch, day and night, and dog that

that he would lose no time in seeing with
his own eyes these maryels. The man did
not expect this, as his house was some

wife that he had got caught at last, and
that tomorrow the man would arrive and
he would be disgraced. Never mind, !" said
his spouse, sleave that to me; it will be all

Imaginary Diseases of Unoccupied Women
and Morbid Men.
A well-known physician several years
ago was spending his summer vacation
at the country-seat of leader in pub
lie affairs, man noted for his moral
courage and powerful intellect. He was
shocked on the evening of his arrival
to see his host turn pale, stagger to a
sofa, and gasp loudly for breath. The
wife of the fainting man, a worn, wan
little woman, quietly brought a glass
of water, and stood by him until he re-
covered.
He rose presently. cit is my heart,
doctor. Agonizing pains! / am conf
dent that it is angina pectoris. Ny end
will be a sudden one.''
"Does your physicianP' -began his
guest, shocked and sympathetic.
"N-no. But | know. The pain is
simply intolerable.n
Professional etiquette kept the visitor
silent, though he shrewdly suspected
the pain was referable to flatulency.
His host speedily recovered his spirits,
and the evening passed pleasantly The
next morning, however, the great
statesman appeared at the breakfast
table, in gloomy, irritable mood. The
doors and windows were all shut, the
temperature of the house was kept at
feyer-heat, and servants were scolded
because, knowing the condition of his
lungs, they permitted draughts to en-
ter.
81 am convinced that l have all the
premonitory symptoms of pneumonia,
he insisted. His wife appeared, pale
and heavy-eyed, having been up all
night in attendance on him. AS he
really had only an ordinary slight cold,
he forgot it before noon. Almost every
day brought some new symptom of
pneumonia, heart trouble or Bright's
disease, which were his favorite all
ments. When his guest left him, he
babe him a solemn farewell, saying:
II shall make a sudden end, doctor.
You Il see my death in the paper some
morning, and | suppose you'll say:

ing the story lately, lis living yet, and
promises to reach hale, hearty old

not strong, and neither body nor mind
could stand the wear and tear of his in
cessant complaints.
This is not so extreme case as may
at first appear. 1t is SO common one
that an eminent physician, who makes
a specially of nervous complaints,
wrote a book descriptive of the patient

tins. = or nurses and family. Unoccu-
pied women, and men whose large in
terests in the world make them es-
pecially dread death, are most apt to
exaggerate slight symptoms into dan
gerous diseases. One of the bravest of
American soldiers would make his fam
lily wretehed If he tore his finger with a
pin or suffered from tooth-ache.
