And upon this the colonel put on his

Just the language Frosty had before
used to him, and just what sealed his
lips. Frosty was tioorcd completely.
But that was not the worst of it The
colonel insisted on going home with him

in such pleasant, yet persistent way,

But Frosty was thoroughly cured of
his jealousy, for he admitted that it was
quite possible for respectable man to
mistake even the number of his own

THE CHAMPION SITTER.
An Editor Who viii Not Wear Himself
Out Walking.

We are averse to betraying secrets of
the editorial floor, but we feel compelled
to put before the public the curious
language" and the more curious doing
of Mr.. Wallace P. Reed, an esteemed
member of the Constitution staff.
Mr.. Reed says: "If you will sit down
and stay down you will live forever. 1t
is exercise that wears a man out. The
man who sits is the man who lasts"
Mr.. Reed has long practised his newly
declared philosophy. He has never been
in the Kimball House. Only once in
five years has he been in the Union
Depot. 1t is six years since be saw
Whitehall street and fifteen since he saw
McDonough. He has been to the thea
ter once in four years and never to base
ball.
His home, by the airline he takes, is
800 yards from the office. Twice day
he walks this. For five years he has not
averaged fifty yards day extra walk
ing One pair of shoes has lasted him
three years. He carries an umbrella
always and never looks beyond its bend
ing rim. One day his umbrella was
pushed aside rudely, and looking out
he saw half dozen elephants and some
camels crossing his path. He carefully
picked his way through the unexpected
caravan and on reaching the Office re-
marked that there must be circus in
town.
Here, then, is the man who sits. For
twelve hours every day he sits at his
desk; four hours he sits at home. 1t
takes twelve minutes to walk 800 yards
four times each day. He sleeps seven
and half hours. His health is perfect
His appetite is keen, his brain clear and
his capacity for work remarkable. He
is never sick day or an hour or min
ute. He is genial, fresh, bright and
does not age shade. His knowledge
of men and things is unusual. The
only character in books that perplexes
him is "The Wandering jew" 81 can
not understand" he says, chow he lived
SO long when he was continually NOV
Park or Peters Park, and says he will
probably never see Whitehall street
again or ever look upon the new Capitol.
"l do not care to wear myself out"
he says, therefore l sit down. Col.
Thompson, who wrote Major Jones's
Courtship,' was man who sat. For
years and years he never left his Office
except to go, air line, to his home. He
saw whole generations of fellows who
walk and perish of gradual exhaustion,
and at something above eighty years.
in full possession of his faculties, he
smiled placidly at the numbering, young
Observation-Disclosures, who were at
forty running uneven and worn on
their joints. The best prescription a
doctor can give in nine cases out of ten
is Sit DOWN. The men who sit are the
men who stay; the men who fit are
gone in day. You see that poetry
even is not impossible to him who sits!'

Metal-workers are using the standard
silver dollars as materials for lockets.
They split them in two on the edge, hol-
low them out on the inside until mere
shell remains, and then thread them so
that they screw together. This is done
so skillfully that the alteration is not
readily detected, and can be discovered
only by the lightness of the coin.

A WONDERFUL OFFER.

For many years the manufacturers of
DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy have offered
in good faith $500 reward for a case of
Nasal Catarrh which they cannot cure.
The remedy is sold by druggists at only
80 cents. 1t has fairly attained wide
reputation. Ifyou have duh, heavy head
ache, obstruction of the nasal passages,
discharges falling from the head into the
throat, sometimes prOfuse, watery, and
acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody and putrid; if the eyes
are weak, watery and inhamed; if there
is ringing in the ears, deafness, hacking
or coughing to clear the throat, expector-
alton of offensive matter, together with
scabs from ulcers, the voice being changed
and has a nasal twang; the breath often
siye; smell and taste impaired; sensation
of dizziness, with mental depression, a
hacking cough and general debility, you
are suffering from nasal catarrh. The
more complicated your disease, the great
er the number and diversity of symp-
toms. Thousands of cases annually, with
out manifestlng half of the above sym
toms, result in consumption, and end in
grave. No disease is so common, more
deceptive and dangerous, less understood,
or more unsuccessfuliy treated by ply
sici2ns.

DEATH OF WIN. HAZLEWOOD.

Mr.. William Hazlewood, mention of
whose serious illness was made in these
columns last week, died on Thursday, the
18th inst, at his home, near LeavenwOrth,
Kansas, aged about a years.
Deceased was a native of Cambridge
shire, England, and came to America in
1884, settling in the neighborhood of Schu-
mscher's, east of town. About 1888 he
was married, and removed to st. Clairs-
vile, living here and in the vicinity until
about 1850, when he removed to the Berry
farm, near Louisville. In the spring of
1853 he removed with his family to Allie
gheny, and resided there and at East Lib
erty until 1875, when he went to Kansas.
Deceased was engaged for many years
as dealer in stock, and during the war
had extensive contracts for the govern
ment. In East Liberty he entered into a
partnership with William Blackstock, and
the firm was considered only second in the
stock commission business at that point
Mr.. Hazlewood was well and favorably
known by the older residents of st. Glars
vile, and enjoyed the confidence and re-
spect of all his acquaintance. His widow,
two sons and five daughters survive him.
