A Lucky Clerk Draws SIS, 900.
san Diego. tCalN Zee. Feb. 8.

San Diego, (Cal) Bee, Feb. 3.
Charles A. Treanor. book keeper for
the Russ Lumber and Mill Company in
this city, is undoubtedly "a lucky man. "
Just before the drawing of the Louisiana
State Lottery in New Orleans on January
10. he bought half of ticket No 6,4l9,
which drew the fourth capital prize of
$4,000, so now Mr. Treanor is the happy
posscssor of IS 900, less Wells. Fargo 81
Co. commission for collecting the same.
He stated to Bee reporter yesterday that
The Louisiana State Lottery Company
had paid the amount promptly, and that
he now has it, but has not decided what
he will do with his fortune. He says that
the other half of the ticket was sold in
ffths throughout the United States and
he does not know the holders of them.
Mr. Treanor has been book-keeper for
the Russ Lumber Company for five years,
and when he drew this S., 1000 was worth
in real estate at least so, 900, so that, al

with his mother, his father being dead, and
supports her. He is an intelligent young
man of about 30 years. wears gold-rim'
med spectacles, and is slight of stature.
He has tried his luck often before, having
purchased over 100 tickets, and has been
uniformly successful in drawing small
amounts, ranging from s. to 800. These
winnings have kept him even with the
amount expended for tickets, and he acted
upon the adage, Nothing, venture moth
ing have" to quote his exact words.

asked Maiden lane jeweler of u re-
porter the other day. "well, here is

1T is a heavy gold band. perfectly
plain, and with seal in the shape of n

which can be seen a skeleton in gold.
On the inside of the ring is the in
scription. in black enamel. giving the
initials of tho deceased and the date of
death.
These designs were used over a
century ago. and now they are to be re-

Most assuredly. Widowers have nc

FRAG ENTS,
BY AUGUSTUS cURRFY.

Life is not lived without its cost,
Though well the wisest scheme and plan'
The most we gather seems but lost
In daily sustenance of the man.
The little that survives the years,
Is, but al best the broken bread,
The scanty fragments. wet with tears,
And dropped by us discounted.
And yet oh, sorrowing soul. the crumb
BY gra G of God is magnified
When we, grown weary, would succuMn
1t feeds and makes us satisfied.
GRAY rocks beside the gnawing sea,
And sterile hillsides bleak with sand;
In Gods hereafter, come to be
The daintiest pastures OF the land.
Move on, atomic fragments, move!
And man, your scattered Titles press
In mOlds where one whose hands in love
Shapes all to forms of loneliness.
And from the fragments of your lives,
In lines of beauty rich and wa IN,
Brings thai to being, which survives,
And from whose pattern men perfoCuo,
OF the old victor, crowned with leaves,
Held only fragments on his head
The same green laurel he receives
Who Sleepeth in his churchyard bed.
And we may learn how life is blessed
From one rejected fragment stone,
On whose foundation we, distressed,
Build into beauty not our own.
Not dust and fragments, after all;
When God with goodness touches them
Beheld their glory, as the stall
Tie touched for us at Bethlehem.

"Oh, papa never saws no to me; OF

And she closed her bright eyes and
the smile dcepened upon her lips, for
she was obeying him. In her dreams
they were together, her hand was in
his, her head resting upon his shoulder,
and his arm was about her; and in her
sleeu she murmered his name.

Nasal Voices, Catarrh and False Teeth. /"

A prominent English woman says the
American women all have high, shrll,
nasal voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant twit-
ting they get about this nasal twang. and
yet it is fact caused by our dry stimu.
lating atmosphere, and the universal pres
ence of catarral difficulties.
But why should so many Of our women
have false teeth?
That is more of poser to the Englis b.
II is quito impossible to account for it ex-
cept on the theory OF deranged stomach
action caused by imprudence in eating
and by want of regular exercise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption, which
are promoted by mal.nutrtion induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition
is n modern one, one unknown to our
ancestors who prevented the cat arrh. cold
cough and consumption by abu ndant and
regular use of what is now known as
Warmers Log Cabin Cough and Con
sumption Remedy and Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla, two old fashioned standard rene.
dies handed down from our ancestors
and now exclusively put forth under the
strongest guarantees of purity and efficacy
by the world famed makers of Warmers
safe cure These two remedies plcntifully
used as the spring and summer seasons
advance give positive assurance of free
dom. both from catarrh and those dread
full and il neglected, inevitable conse.
qucnces, pneumonia, lung troubles and
consumption, which so generally and
fatally prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher, of Salem, Henry
Co, Iowa, served four years in the late
war and contracted disease called con.
sumption by the doctors He had frequent
bemorrhages. After using Warmers Log
Cabin Cough and Consumption remedy,
he says. under date of Jan. 10Th 1888: Il
do not bleed at the lungs any more, my
cough does not bother me, and | do not
have any more smothering spells" War
ner's Log CABIN Rose Cream cured his
wife of catarrh and she is sound and
we'll"
OF course we do not like to have our
women called nose takers and false teeth
owners, but these conditions can be readi-
ly overcome in the manner indicated

Pork Replaced by Beet.

1t Is noted as Il curious fact that the
lumbermen in the New England forests
who consumed little other meat than
salt pork while in camp. now demand an
almost exclusive beef diet. This is dl .
partly to the d minished cost of beef
and partly TO gradual change in the
tastes and wants of these hardy toilers
But little pork is now used, except in
connection with the popular dish of
baked beans. Immense quantities Of
corncd beef and also of western dress
ed fresh beef, are now consumed in this
industry. -Aroostooh (Ne;) Pioneer.
