One of the first duties OF the Leg

One of the first duties OF the Leg
islature, when it meets in January,
will be the repeal of the act providing
for the payment of fees to the Register
of Wills for collecting the Inheritance
tax. That is piece of vicious legis-
lation directly opposed to the mandate
of the Constitution. If the Register
Of Wills is to do this work and receive
extra pay therefor, 1t should take the
form of fixed salary.
An 1S-year-old negro boy of Mari
anna, Ark, shot his mother because
8 was baking sweet potato for his
brother instead of for HIM.
Happy is he who has learned to dy
the plain duty Of the moment quicklo
and cheerfully, wherever and whatever
it may be.
Who keeps his tongue doth keep his
soul.
No simpler teaching can be found
than that which our Lord himself has
given us. If we err at all in preaching
to adults, it is in the direction of OBJ
scurlng the simple teaching OF our
Lord with our profound verbositles and
subtle PHILOSOPHERS.
Women often make light OF ruin.
Give them but the beloved objects, and
poverty is trihing sorrow TO bear.

What a Copyright Protects.

A title may be hntered, but the copy
right covers the book and not the title.
A title alone cannot be copyrighted; 1t
can be protected solely as trademark.
What is copyrighted manuscript
Copyright pertains to published book
only. So long as book is In manu-
scrirt it is protected by common law
Of property; no one can print it with
without authority unless he steals it.
1t Is when a book is published that the
copyright law steps in to protect it.
Every day we have evidence that all-
thOrs have wrong notions of copyright;
they make point Of having obtained
copyright as If it were something diff
cult-like a patent-and think they
haue In some wac secured their book
and their title by entering the latter.
They have secured nothing. Nothing
whatever is gained by entering a title
except preliminary step to be followed
by filing copies Of the book.

BULLY, THE WIZARD
A Very Remarkable Indian Who
Makes a Living Telling Fortunes.

In the north end Of Delaware county,
Illinois, is now to be found one Of the
most eccentric and mysterious chara
ters In America. He is known as
Bully, the Wizard" Nobody knows
him by any other name. He claims to
be "a years old. and has been in these
parts at intervals during the last thirty
five years. Bully has no relatives In
the world. The most diligent inquiries
have failed to discover anything about
his history. as he declines to gives any
information himself. The wizard
makes his living by fortune telling, and
many people implicitly believe that he
has occult powers. Stories are related
about hisi wonderful predictions, This
strange man at present stopping with
Mr.. Shannon, ten miles from Muncie.
Bully has travelled all over the world,
but he has never rode on horse. in
wagon or on the cars. The only con-
veyance he has ever used was the
steamship which carried him across the
ocean. Sometimes he will disappear
from this locality for two or three
years at time. but always turns up
again when least expected.
'Bully, the Wizard" has remark
able ''charm string" 1t is 203 feet
long and ia composed Of shells. old
coins, snske rattles and buttons in end
less variety. The string when coiled
has diameter Of six feet. The charm
weighs 300 pounds. Bully has his
whole life cectred in this charm etring,
which he treasures above everything on
earth. Some time ago he was offered
81 900 for the curiosity, but refused it.
When he realized that his string had
pecuniary value the wizard buried it In
a box in deserted gravel pit and then
departed on one of his excursions.
About three months ago the County
commissioners authorized the con-
struction Of free gravel road. and a
committee was appointed to inspect the
gravel. In examining the old pit the
charm string was found and placed in
the care OF Mr.. Shannon, the friend of
the Wizard. Bully is now engaged In
making another charm, which he claims
will be more marvellous than the other
one, which he was forty-six years in
constructing.
In telling fortunes he uses wire
filled with beads, which he places over
the head Of the subject. and after the
measurement places the wire on his
own head. The strange man lived four
years among Shoshone Indians in Wy.
oming, and is familiar with the customs
and languages Of all the tribes. His
personal appearance is striking. A
skull cap. with long tassel behind,
covers his head. He has mustache
and beard. Everybody considers Bully
non c0mpos mentis. 1t is said that he
has been in every town of 5000 inhab-
itants and over in the United States
and Canada, always travelling on foot.

Forging Ahead.

The merchants of the South have
rolled up their sleeves. What with
their iron mines, cotton and rice crops,
their factories and the general good
time that Is coming. they live on the
edge of good cheer, and are forging
ahead with tremendous vim. The cot
ton crop, by the way, will this year run
up to siven million bales, as against less
than five millions in the days Of slav-

WHAT AM l TO DO ,

The symptoms of BilioGsness are un-
happily but too well known. They differ
IN different individuals to some extent.
A Bilious man is seldom a break fast
eater. Too frequently, alas, he has an
excellent appetite for liquids nut none
for solids of a morning. His tongue will
hardly hear inspection at at any time !;
if it is not white and furred. ii is rough, ,
at all events.
The digestive system is wholly ont OF
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate
There are often Hemorrhoils or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acility or fiatul
ence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effecl
a cure try Green's August Flower, it cos
but trihe and thousands attest iti
efficacy.

Among other things this lady truthfully

U. are leading many ladies to commit
themselves to ths support ofthe Prohibi-

consideration than any other party
seemingly without stopping to think that
it has nothing hut promises to give, with
no prospect Of ever being able 70 fulAM

theory as to the third party beins the
religious, the moral, the Temperance
party, yet the stubborn fact Of majorities
remains. and a careful diagnosis Of the
political case by the best political doc
tors gives no indication Of any great
change.
We are compelled 70 look at this mat.
ter in a practical way, and considering
the immense maiorities that Democrats
and Republicans have over Prohibition
lists, and the majorities, especially among
voters, that the unconverted have over
the religious. and considering the fac,
that the Gol-in-the Constitution battle
was fought and settled years ago, and
