The business man with q hobby that he

or later. The man without q hobby will
be found in the club room,t the billiard

Hypocrisy Of q Love Token.

II have become a hopeless cynic from
my thirteen years experience az q
jeweler," said the foreman Of a leading
firm. ST have learned that so much is
tinsel that shines as gold that I can only
look on the worlds splendor as clinquant,
hollow sham. Even when the genuine
gl1ttering gold, plucked from tho bowels
ct rich Potosi and set with gems of puress
ray serene, adorns fair throat, or rounded
arm, or tapering finger, 1t only producesa
sentiment Of ecorn for the hypocrisy OF
human nature.
"Let me illustrate: 1t has been for some
time a favorite fad with young men In
society when one becomes engaged to pre-
sent his 1ancee with q jewelcd bracelet,
which the jeweler rivets On the wrist so
that it cannot be slipped of. This is sup
posed to be a token OF the eternal bondage
Of the wearer to the donor and perpetual
reminder Of fidelity. But in a day or two
the young Lady receives a note from the
jeweler requesting her to call. When she
does so she is shown . secret spring,
whereby she can put aside the bond ut

the jeweler, shat although the fair lady
protests against making uso of the spring

In q corner with the most terrible feeling

came before me wildly, and my mother
and the home I had SO recently left With
out cause rose up before me and caused
me more bitter anguish than 1t seemed I
could endure. My companions, hardened
by a desperate life and perhaps by former
hair breadth escapes, conversed in whis-
Pers for some time, and seemed to take 1t
very cooly. After come time the leader
said:
Young Teller, I reckon ye got TO dance

Whether I replied or not I do not re-
member, but he continued:
"I'm mighty sorry we got ye into it, but
we lowed we'd get way oil right. Ef

An Invention Of Great Value to
Newspaper Publishers.

H. E. Parker has bought the sole
right to manufacture and sell the Ken
dali newspaper folder of G.. w. Ken
dali of St. Adams, and will soon place
the device on the market and will show
what they are to the manager of every
country newspaper Office in the United
States. This folder comes in to fill a
breach which has always been a sore
trial in the issue of papers with cir
culation of from 500 to 5000 copies.
AS is well known among newspaper
men, to secure folders for edition af-
ter edition has involved more labor
and bother than the employment Of
about all the rest of the corps OF en-
ployes. While on the other hand no
folder has been manufactured before
which could be sold for price within
the reach of ordinary country publish
ers, and even then the machines have
been cumbersome, complicated affairs,
requiring skilled presence to keep them
in order and a great outlay to keep in
repair. To meet this demand the Ken
dali folder was designed, and it meets
it we'll. Where ever the machine has
been shown it has met unanimous ia
vor, and is destined to prolong the
lives of publishers by saving them
much care.
The Kendall folder consists of
light, but substantial, wooden frame,
series of rollers, tapes and knives, a
light shaft and time bar, which makes
the machine run in perfect unison with
the press to which it is attached. The
whole continuance is light enough to
be easily moved, but substantial enough
to stand any amount of running. 1t
can be rugged to run with any cylinder
press in less than half hour and can
be attached in two minutes. The ca
pacity is fully equal to any plassf seds
in country Office, and the work is
more perfect than is ever done by
hand. The price of the machiEs is
about one-third Of the folder now in
use and is SO low that the amount is
soon replaced in the saving of labor.
The frame is the same heighth as the
delivery tapes of the press, and the
sheet instead of passing to the fly runs
on to the row of tapes and enters the
folder. This first series of tapes pass
es the sheet directly across the top of
the machine. When it is exactly in
the center, the time bar which has been
to the bed of the press, comes
back to the first latch and depresses
the upper knife bar. This doubles the
sheet between two rollers which carry
a second series of tapes running hori-
with the top rail of the ma
chine. The doubled sheet passes down
through these tapes just half as far as
before, when the time bar hits the sec
ond latch, folding the sheet again. 1t
then passes between another pair of
rollers with tapes at right angles with
the last set, to another latch and knife,
thence through q fourth set of tapes
parallel with the first, to the last knife
which makes the fourth fold, and drops
the paper into the packing box. The
folder is run with small connecting
belt and the machine requires no more
power to drive it than the fly cam.

pound boy to get ashore first, upset
the mental equilibrium of the party and

about six ladies found themselves, as

in eighteen inches of water. Wet feet
