A Family Umbrella ]!

Come in out of the wat,' as the shark said when he swallowed the little boy.
 Some people are born fools and can't be blamed for some of the idiotic things they do. Men and women, who. while not having lungs actually dis eased still have inherited tendency to lung dis eases will carelessly expose themselves in all sorts of weather to make dollar, see friend, or do a little shopping.
 Thege inherited tendencies they are called, are dangerous things Take three peeple-ene with a tendency to kidney disease, one with tendency to lung trouble, and the third with a tendency to bowel trouble. If these three are exposed to in- element weat her unduly the chances are 100 to 1 that each will have the cold he catches settle on his especially weak organ-giying the first pneu- monia or consumption, the second Brights disease, and the third inflammation of the bowels.
 To such people the old saw of "an ounce of pre- ventfon is worth pound of cure' is especially ap- plicable. It is wisdom for them to fortify their systems, strengthen their bowels have their diges- tion perfect and kidneys working healthy and free ly by the use of natures remedy, Scotch Oats Els. sence.
 Because Scotch Oats Essence will cure these dread diseases is no reason why person should be fool enough to wait and tch the disease in order to test the fact. It builds up, tones rejuvenates, places such as disease is hunting for.
 And who has not inherited some weakness or evil tendency?

 WASHINGTON, April 22.-Senstor Cullcm has authorized @ reporter of the Associated Press to say that he is not a candidate for the presidential nomination. ''I feel," he said, "very hopeful of the success of the Repubi

RothschiId,s Revenge.

An amusing adventure is related as having happened to the Bank of England, which had committed the unpardenable sin of re- tusing to discount a large bill drawn by Anslem Rothschild, of London. The bank had haughtily replied that they discounted only their own bills; not those of pri- vate persons. But they had to do with one who was stronger than the bank. "Pri- vate personsl' exclaimed Baron Rethschild, when the fact was reported to him. "Ill make tb'1se gentlemen understand what kind of priv ate persons we are." Three weeks later the baron-who had employed the intlrval in gathering all the fve-pound otes he could procure in England and on the continent-presented himself at the bank.
 He drew from his pocketbook a ive-pound note, and they naturally counted out five sovereigns, at the same time looking quite astonished that the baron should have per sonally troubled himself for such a tride. The great banker examined the coins one by one, and put them in 8 little canvas bag; then drawing out another note-a third-a tenth-a hundrsdth-he never put the pieces of gold into the bag without scrupulously examining them, and in some instances try ing them in the balance The first pocket DOOh A0AAf LID HeeocA tAcAA sO HIS CAo1k Auu received second, and thus continued till the bank closed. The baron had employed seven hours to change s21 1000, but as he had some also nine employees of his house engaged in the same manner, it resulted that the house of Rothschild had drawn 9210, 1000 in gold from the bank, and that he had go occupied the Iellers that no other person could exchange single note.
 On the first day the bank people were somewhat amused at this exhibitor of Baron Rothschild's pique; but they laughed less when they saw him return next morning, at opening of the bank, fanked by his nine clerks and followed this time by vehicles to carry away the specie. And they laughed not at all when the king of bankers said, with ironic simplicity, ''these gentlemen have refused to pay my bills. I have sworn not to keep theirs. Only I notify them that have enough to employ them for two mOnths-" 'fFor two monthsi" The bank took alarm. There was some thing to be done. Next morning notice appeared in the journals that the bank would pay Rothschild's bills the same as their

To Parade Wednesday With a Band of

 A large union meeting of Knights of Coz lumbus was held yesterday afternoon in their council chamber at which final arrangements were completed for their participation in the Founders day parade. The committee which had in charge the details of the Knights dis play were authorized to secure the best band to be had in the State, and negotiations were immediately initiated with Weeds band of Hartford, and it is probable that the Knights will be headed by that band on Wednesday. The sentiment was very strong and enthusi- astic for large representation of the order on the occasion, and from all indications no feature of the parade will be more ereditable than that presented by the Knights of Columbus.

SMALLPOX.

mrs. Davis, Who Has Been Suffering
 From That Disease, Dead - Her
 Daughter Taken In.
 Mrs. Davis. who has been suffering from that dreaded disease, smallpox, died at her home on Kimberly avenue about 2 o'clock yesterday morning. She gradually grew worse on Saturday. The disease had de- veloped into the violent type.
 The deceased was the wife of Burr S. Davis, a stenographe- in the employ of the Consoli- dated railroad company. When she was first taken ill she was treated for measles. She was 8 most estimable woman, and she had many friends who will mourn her sad death.
 Her little daughter Flossie, who is five years old, is new down with the smallpox. She has the continent type of the disease. Health Officer Williston says he does not know yet how severe the case is. She had not been vaccinated up to the time her mother was taken ill, since when she was vaccinated five times but it did no good. The health officer has secured a hospital nurse to take care of the patient.
 Health Officer Williston says there is no cause for alarm as everything is being done to prevent the spreading of the disease. He does not think it necessary for people in the V1cln1ty to leave. he further says that every one should use chloride of lime about their houses and be vaccinated, and then there will be no harm.
 Yesterday, at the request of the health of fcer, police officer was sent out to Kimber ly avenue to patrol across the street from where the house is. The officer is to be at the disposal of the health officer. He will keep people away from the house.
 The burial of Mrs. Davis took place at five o'clock p. m. The a1mshouse hearse drove up with five men in it, and metallic coffin was carried to the piazza of the house and soon the remains were borne out and placed in the coffin. The men wore rubber coats. They were hired by Lewis & Maycock, who had charge. The interment was in Seymour.
