There is no occasion which presents
such terrible advantage to the practical
jokera us that of n sea voyage, and there
is non on which his jocosities become
more unbearablc. The following in
cident cmbodies one of his most am
bilious efforts:
When wo were in the middle of the
Gulf of st, Lawrence, and the nearest
coast vas two hundred miles away,
a Yankee quietly remarked:
wal, l guess we are quite close to
land now. 1t amt more'n %three-quar-
ters of n mile away, nohow."
Personally we took no interest in
facts of this nature, and were content
to sit and believe, but many excited
travellers dashed out of tho smoking
room to have n look at the long hoped
for continent. They presently came
back, in the worst OF tempers, saying
that the charts and all other authorf-
ties declared tho land to be at least
two hundred miles away, and that
there was certainly none in sight.

Jefferson Davis. Home.

Beauvoir, with its cool yerandas, its
wido lawns and its virgin groves, its
wharf, its boats and its bath house, is
a typical gulf coast home, and in the
occasional absence of the curious and
sight seeing it looks tho very abode of
peace and rest, by the placid sound
that never whispers of rocks and
breakers where a nation stranded.
The stranger here enjoys the true hos
pitality which TO tho born southron is
scarcely distinctive, although many of
its recipients are but so many mys-
tcries to those who cannot conceive of
Mr.. and Mrs. jefferson Davis as show
people, but prize them for his simple
greatness and her simple goodness;

Veteran Government Clerks.

The career of n government clerk is
fnirly typiiied in the case of James
Evclcth, the veteran of the war de
partment. He began working for the
United States in 1929 at $500 a year.
In 1886 he was given 81, 900 a year; in
1850, 81, $50 a year; from 1851 TO 1853
he was paid 81, 500 and the next year
was promoted TO 81, GOO. In 1864 he
was given 81, 500 and in 1886, on &c
count of advancing age, was reduced
TO 81, 600. There he is now at about
so years of ago, and there he will die,
unless, perhaps, he lives long enough
TO suffer further reductions. Appoint
ment Clerk Smith, of tho treasury,
tells me he has on his rolls nine men
over 20, the oldest being Hiram Pitts,
born in 1902. Richard White, aged
rs, has spent flfty-two years of his life
in the department. John Lovejoy
worked forty years in tho treasury,
with but forty-one days lost time. a
few of the old employees in the vari-
GUS departments are virtually ON the
retired list, by consent drawing full
pay. Two or three of them have their
salaries sent TO them and do not visit
their desks once a year. There is no
warrant in law for this, but who caresl

"A novel incident resulting from a
habit of very common prevalence
among nervous people was brought
TO my notice recently" said n leading
physician, Of Philadelphia, TO n re
porter. "a young lady presented
herself at my office and complained Of
n constant irritation In her throat,
Two weeks previously she had been
taken with n very severe attack of sore
throat, which was treated by the fam
lily physician. Under his care, sho
said, the inflammation quickly sub
sided, but there still remained a sensa-
ton of irritation. Examination re-
about the size of n kernel of wheat
ndherent 10 the tissues posterior to the
left tonsil by the one end. Tho other
parts of tho throat were normal. Tho
little mass could not be detached by a
cotton covered probe, but by the use
of forccps it was easily removed and
on examination proved TO be n piece
Of finger nail which had become i'm
bedded in n chccsy deposit. A broken
piece of tho nail was also removed
from under tho mucous membrane at
the same spot by n sharp pointed
probe.
The lady then confessed to the
habit of biting her finger nails, and
moreover could remember that n day
or two previous TO her throat trouble
n piece of nail she had bitten off had
become lost in her mouth, but after 1t
had caused n fit of coughing she had
forgotten all about it until reminded
by the discovery"

To strengthen tho Lungs.

Since Mrs. Shaw, the whistling lady,
has told Of the good effects OF whistling
in expanding her chest, l have had a
number of infirm folks call on me,
most of them ladies, to ask my opinion
as to the possibilities of chest develop
ment by whistling. 1 am safe in say
ing that the practice tends to a healthy
expansion Of the lung power, and I
believe that it a be made to work
much good TO delicate people. 1 know
of n number Of young ladies in the
north end of town who practice on the
cornet solely for the good that 1t does

1t has been often charged that

That Cantnnkerous ola Woman

Described in the nursery ballad, who
lived pom nothing but %victuals and
drink" and yet would never be quiet"
was undoubtedly troubled with chronic
indigestion. Her ~victuals, like those of
many other elderly persons whose diges-
tive powers have become impaired, didn't
agree with her. This was before the era
of Hostetter's Stomach BItters, or some
one of her numerous friends and relatives
would undoubtedly have persuaded her to
try the great specific for dyspepsia, con
stipation and billiousness. This would
have been a measure of self protection on
their part, for she would soon have been
cured and ceased to disturb them with
her clamor. The most obstinate cases of
indigestion, with its attendant heartburn,
tiatulence, constant uneasiness of the
stomach and of the nerves, are complete
overcome by this sovereign remedy. Chills
and fever and bilious remittent, rheumat-
ism and kidney troubles are also relieved
by it.
