Paper Pillows.

The latest fad in England is paper
pillows. The paper is torn into very
small pieces, not bigger than the fin
ger nail, and then put into a pillow
sack Of drilling or light ticking. They
are very cool for hot climates, and
much superior to feather pillows.
The newspapers are printing appeals
for them for hospitals. Newspapers
are not nice to use, as they have a
disagreeable odor OF printers ink;
but brown or white paper and old let
tiers and envelopes are the best. The
finer the paper is cut or torn, the
lighter it makes the pillow.

THE DRUMMER,s LAST TRIP.

drummer sat down at a table one day.
And asked for something TO eat
he was tired and weary and hungry too
As he languidly dropped in q seat
he had travelled that day over many mile
Good orders ne had by the score,
And many a time he feared that the man
He sold would class him a bore
But what cared he what Others thought,
SO long as he got in his work.
He'd tackle preacher. a lawyer. a crank.
Methodist, Jew or Turk
Yes, he'd side with an infdel or heather Chi
nese
If he could but wire, at night.
I've scooped the town. filed it chock full,
Smith and Jones are nowhere in sight,
For sensitive feelings, drummers have none
such tribes as these they leave home
When they hastily start, grip in hand,
Their oft-trodden district 10 roam
Landlord ~ Waiter" he hungrily cried,
As he neryously grasped his mail,
FRAY, give me dinner, and quickly, too,
For on the next steamer sail
Then over his letters he eagerly scanned,
AS one by one he laid down:
The little. square bulky one was not there,
And over his face swept a frown.
Alas | thought would hear from her
Whom left six long weeks ago.
lis here told her to write me- sure,
As often she had done before
AND how happy I've been, as the train sped on
More swift than the winter wind,
Ny soul so engrossed in the fond CHEEKY words
That here expected to find
That hunger nor thirst nor business cares
Souiu uepress my ilSntsOme heart.
Oh, how remember her last embrace
II almost killed us to part
No letter from her Oh God upon high.
Let no harm befall my wife,
It my last time to go out on the road
Next week change my life.
No, landlord; your right, I've no appetite.
Thought had when came;
But we drummers, you know, queer fellows,
they say.
Tho all pretty nearly the same.
When the hearts satisfied and all fears are at
rest,
How jolly, how gay and how free.
Good eating and drinking We enjoy with the
best
Not thought OF duh care have we.
But when many long weeks creep slowly by,
And from home we get ne er line
No food nor drink can quench tile fire
That consumes this breast of nine"
The drummer went out with sorrowfll mien
To fight the battles of trade;
His heart had sank in his bosom deep
AS goodbye to his friends he babe.
In little white cottage, so cosy and clean.
A woman Law moaning In pain:
"Oh, husbandf T. she cried my life nv love
Oh, let me but see you again,
TO show you our Robby. our sweet faced boy,
SO like YOU. It's all she said
But the drummer heard not; when home he
was called
His darling, his wife, was dead

PROFITABLE READING.
Food for the Mind Within the Reach of
Everybody.


Everybody.
From the Baltimore SUM-
OF the making of books there is no end,
and recent Improvements in the photo
graphic arts of reproduction and in other
industries have produced great develop
ment in the publication of books. The
general result is change of conditions
that has not yet been recognized in the or
ganization and equipment of public libra
ries. The aim is still to get great collec-
tions OF books open to the public, just as
it was when books were scarce and could
be obtained in no other way for general
use. But to-day the reading public is sup
piled with newspapers that are magazines
Of information, reviews and magazines that
are equivalent to books, and republications
of standard works that may be obtained at
such low prices that even poor men NAV
secure for their own use respectable libra
ries. There are, of course, many works of
reference, valuable books on various sub
jects, that cannot be cheaply printed, rare
volumes and current. publications which
are still removed from the reach of the
general buyer Of limited means. and these
must be sought for in public libraries.
There is abundant need for the libraries.
therefore, although the reading public has
without these collections large supply of
literature.
What is now most needed is guide to the
vast collections of books. No man can
hope to keep up with current literature
while at the same time reading all the ac-
cumulated stories to be found in the pub
lie libraries. The volume of material
presented to him forces him to become
specialist, though general reading is also
desirable. He lacks, however, any practi-
cal guides. The uncultured man with
little knowledge of books, but desire to
learn, enters great library as child
might enter wilderness. He is bewild-
cred at the great mass of literature pre-
sented for his use and generally wastes
time in hap-hazard reading, sometimes
wandering far from his purpose. By the
time he has developed a method and
learned how to economic his time he has
sacrificed some years in reading, which,
though not wholly useless, is not as useful
as it might have been made. 1t is not too
much to affirm that the value of public
library might be quadrupled at little cost
by the preparation of brief guides to the
use Of the books it contains. 1t is neces-

II Your Liver Remind. You

OF its existence by dull pain or sharp
twinges in the right side, or beneath the
dexter shoulder blade, accept the reminder
as warning and regulate the organ with
out loss of time, by the use of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. The above symptoms
are usually accompanied by yellowness of
the skin, constipation, furred tongue, dis
order of the stomach, sick headache and
morning nausea. But reform is promptly
instituted by the Bitters, the best possible
substitute for calomel, blue pill, and other
super-potent and hurtful drugs enormously
designated as remedies for billiousness.
Appetite and digestion areressored, and the
bowels resume activity, when the impetus
is given to the functions of health by this
sterling anti-biliious medicine, which also
has the effect of enriching and purifying
the circulation and terrifying the system
against malarial infection in air or water.
lis also highly beneficial Tor rheumatism,
kidney and bladder troubles.

The original flag Of England was the
banner of St. George, i. e., white with a
red cross, which, on April u, 1906, three
years after james I. assembled the throne,
was incorporated with the banner of Scot
land-a blue flag with diagonal white
cross. This combination was named the
"Union jack" in allusion to the union
with Scotland, and the word Jack is prob
ably corruption OF Jacobus, Jacques or
James.

One often reads pathetic stories of pet
birds that die simultaneously with. or
shortly after, their child owners. Itsounds
pretty, but the simple prose of the matter
often is that the owners infected the birds.
Canaries and other songsters Will catch
scarlet tever, measles, diphtheria or almost
any other human disease, and if left in the
sick-room are almost sure to be infected.
Pet cats and small dogs, too, are often sac
rificed in the same way, and in their cases
there is also the risk that they will go out
and become the unwilling instruments of
disseminating disease.

Wise Old Cat.

A rather reckless phrase sometimes &C.
cuses forward children of being "too
smart to live." Our Dumb animals relates
story of q humane housekeeper who con-
cluded that her pet cat was too smart to
die.
There were three cats in a William
street family in Norwich, Conn, and as
the lady of the house concluded that one
was sufficient, an edict of death was
passed on the old cat and her kitten. The
question of the manner of death was set
tied and chloroform purchased.
Some days passed before the execu-
toner could muster courage to execute the
sentence, and finally the lady put some
laudanum into the ats milk, thinking to
produce stupor that would make the
chlorforming more easy.
The old cat tasted the milk, cast her
eyes suspiciously about her, and refused
to eat. The kitten rushed to the dish, but
was violently knocked away by the old
cat. who took corner of a mat and COW
cred over the dish to hide it from the kit
ten and prevent her from taking the "med-
icine."
The lady could not believe it possible
that the act was Intentional, and uncovered
the dish. The cat again knocked the
kitten from it, and covered it more care
fully than before. The repetition of the
protective act was too much for the lady,
and the cat and her two kittens were al
lowed to live.

A Remarkable Coincidence.

At the residence of Dr.. E. It. Angel, in
the little town of Corrigan, Polk county,
Tex, at IL M, Jan. 30, 1890, Mr.. Jno. 4.
Simmons, who is we'll and favorably
known by many of the citizens of Calca-
sieu parish, but who is now resident of
the little town Of Asia, Tex, was united
in the bonds of holy wedlock to the charm
ing Miss Louise Angel, of Corrigan, by
the Rev. ]. M. Porter, of Livingston, Tex.
There were but few particular friends
of the family present to witness the cere-
mony. which took place in the parlor of
the brides father. This, you say, does
not seem strange; but when the marriage
ceremony had been performed, and the
congratulate ms of the friends present had
been extended to the happy couple, and
the company had resumed their seats ard
everything had become quiet, the clock,
sitting upon the mantel piece, and which
was not nor bad been running for about
six months, without being moved or
touched, began and struck five successive
peals, then stopped. 1t was said by the
family that the clock was never known to
do such thing before since it had been
stopped from running. Under such cir
cumstances and at such time, this does
seem remarkably strange. These are facts
that can be substantiated.

Pres. Harrison's Stenographer.

Miss Nellie Sanger, who is stenographer
to President Harrison and private secretary
to his wife. was one of the young ladies
asked to assist at the New Years recep-
ton at the White House. On the same
day Miss Hunt, who is the daughter of 8
former cabinet officer and minister to
Russia, but who, through reverses, has
become wholly derendent upon herself,
and is serving as private secretary to Vice
President Morton's wife. was one of the
most honored assistants at the reception
in her employers house. Both of these
young ladies are clever, accomplished and
personally attractive, fitted to grace any
drawing room, but they are working wo-
men on salaries, and their formal appear
ance in official society is an innovation
which is said to be without precedent. It
is the pleasure of Mrs. Harrison and Mrs.
Morton that the young ladies should rank.
socially with invited guests, and this de-
cision is emminently sensible. It may be
said to work an era in social progress when
the "better half" Of an administration tao
lily declares that lady does not lose caste
because she earns her living. - WomGn's

Fashions for Tramns.

Trousers ere worn in almost any style,
generally with one suspender; but some
prefer two yards of rope.
The latest hat has the brim turned down
and the band removed. The color is an
off-gray tinge, but that is merely matter
of taste. Ventilation is provided for by
perforstions on the top.
The hair is worn la Oscar Wilde. It
is allowed to drop on the shoulders Some
affect bang, but this is hardly good style.
It is quite chic to hide the ears.
Shoes, where any are worn, have thin
soles, and are without strings. This i'm
parts Byronic appearance to the uppers,
which is very effective.
Many gentlemen who like to go a = er-
IRENE wear one boot and one shoe; but
this depends entirely on their opportuni-
ties.
Stockings have been entirely discarded
by the creme de la chsfonniere, and the
feet are Kept GU matureL. This is very
convenient, as it saves much time.
Shirts are made almost entirely of fam
mel material. 1t is immaterial whether
they will wash or not. Undershirts some
times are worn instead. but are too close
fitting for cold weather. The flannel shirt
gives greater freedom to the arm in rails
ing re arosoler."
Coats are of almost any color, and cord
is used in place Of buttons. Ventilation is
the main object aimed at and this is gen
orally secured It is quite fashionable to
have the garment torn In places, as it gives
negligee appearance which is greatly to
be desired. Puck
