unable to make his escape; the ele-

him violently to the ground, and then

heard such an awful and terrific denun-
citation of the whisky traffic and the
evils of alcohol. 1t would take the most
eXtravagant praise of every man, wom-

the most sublime. or the saddest words
that ever fell from human lips. With
every flight he seemed to rise higher
and higher. and when he brought his
majestic, sweeping gestures into play he
was like the eagle parting the clouds
with u tireless wing; then nc would
lower his splendid voice, and, i'm tone
of unutterable tenderness. relate some
pathetic incident that caused tears to
rush unbidden to every eye; and then
suddenly, with tongue of flame, he
Numbered away in fierce attack
against the evil that has draped the
world in sorrow, while his great, sad
eyes seemed to look clear across the
plains of eternity. He finally closed
with reference to his God, and, raising
those lustrous eyes to heaven, he de-
livered IN apostrophe that is seldom
equaled. 1t was burst of solemn and
pathetic feeling; it was electric. 1t was
like the last beam of sunset, or the
gleam of summer lightning, radiating
from the brow of cliff and mountain. !"

ONLY HALF ALIVE.

There are hosts of men and women, who to
coin phrase, are only half alive. That is to
say they have seldom if ever any appetite, are
nervous, weak, fdgety and troubled by num-
berless small pains and aches, In the presence
Of vigorous, exuberent vitality they seem
mere pigmies. Such persons are usually fond
of frequently dosing themselves, swallowing
in the course of year enough drugs to stock
any apothecary's shop OF average dimensions.
This of course defeats instead of furthering
the end in view viz, the recovery ofhealth and
vigor. Were they to seek it from an unfailing
source of vitality Hostetters Stomach Bitters
how different would be the case. Then vigor
would return to their debiltated frames the
glow OF health to their wan cheeks, their
uncertain gait would grow firm and elastic,
appetite that grandest OF all sauces, would
give relish for the food, were it ever so
coarse, and refreshing sleep would crown the
tasks of the day,

Fools and Their Money.

1t is really singular what q craze some
people have to find some way in which
to get rid of their money. You see that
in New York more frequently than in
any other city in the country. This
throwing away of cash by the young
society people adds greatly to the sum
of unhappiness and frequently brings
,the young men into trouble. Berry
Wall, the kind of the dudes, is an eX-
ample. He has got away down in the
scale now, so that you frequently hear
of him in singular escapades. Fast
horses, the card table, and flippant wo-
men have eaten up large fortune for
him, and were it'not that he has some
good qualities about him that keep his
relatives, who are still rich. ready to
provide for his wants, he would soon be
beyond the pale OF the society in which
he has been so long curious and no
torious figure. Frequently he is heard
of being in trouble with his companions
A story is going the rounds now that re-

We wcip schoolfellows, Dolly and I,
At a little DANES school In the town ol0ee by;
i carried her books and she held my hand
Two innocent children of Gods own band.
We would marry when we grew up, we said,
Grave plans for the time to come we laid
A small boy and a wee girl she,
In those bygone days-ah mel ali me!
We grew-we were married-Dolly and q,
At the quaint old church In the town close by;
The farm was purchased the fees were paid
What blithe young coupled" the neishbors
said.
And so we were tin the winds blew bleak,
And chilled the roses on Dolay's cheek,
Like the waning tide of a waveless sea,
Her life ebbed gently-ah mel ali me!
II you want to know why ofttimes sigh,
You must come with me TO the town close by;
You must see the church where our vows
were said
And the mound thateovers the restful dead,
For my love is sleeping the quiet sleep
That the Shepherd gives TO his Nearied sheep
And the world is not what IL used to be,
Ere Its sunlight faded for her and me.

The actual northern boundary Of the
state of Massachusetts has been in dis
pute since 1910 and the controversy which
was settled by decree of George H. is
again revived by the clam that the sur
veyor who made the straight line due
west failed TO make sufficient allowances
for he variation of the needle, and con
scqUently as he proceeded westward the
line inclined to the north, and when he
reached the Connecticut river he was be
tween two and three miles further north
than when he started. The line coutiuu-
inc to the western boundary of Ma~Sa-
chu-etts DIVORCES still more, 80 that Yer
mont has It larger slice of territory in
Massachusetts than New Hampshire has
and il Is claimed that the line at New
