A Brave Little 1,.autx

Mayor Cushing's little 5-year-old
daughter Blanche fell from q hammock
and broke her shoulder. After the fall
she ran into the house, her lips clenched
tightly, and calmly told her mother that
sho had hurt herself. Although not a
tear was visible, yet the deathly pallor
which had spread over her face told tho
mother that her little ono was hurt
"Now, mamma, don't you cry. Twill
stand tho pain. It won't last so very
long," said the little one.
Hastily examining his child, Mr.. Cush-
ing found that tho shoulder blade was
broken. Surgeons were Immediately
brought, and the fracture, which proved
to be serious one, was quickly set.
At no time during tho fearfully pain
full operation did the little one utter so
much as a moan. She simply clenched
her dainty little fists, bit her lips, and
without a tear bore it all in manner
which tho attending physician afterward
remarked they had mover seen equalcd.

Owed Him an Arm.

In the summer of 1877 Gen. Jubal A.
EARLY was q guest at the Arlington hotel,
Hot Springs, Ark. Among tho other
notables stopping there was the then
somewhat famous Ex-Governor Stearns,
of Florida, who had been recently ap-
pointed by President Hayes a commits

Hot Springs who had improved real
estate afterward decided to belong to
the national government. One day the
two gentlemen, who had no personal &c
quaintance, met in the hotel Office.
"Gen. Early" said Stearns politely,
'you ought to be willing to shake hands
with me. You owe me an arm," and he
indicated his empty sleeve.
''How is that, governor queried
EARLY, at the same time extending his
hand.

Parrots md I,nrclnrs.

We can easily believe that some par
rots are as good as policemen. Notiong
ago two young men sold parrot to the
wifo of u night watchman in New York.
A few days afterward they visited the
house, with dishonest intention, about
$3.50 o'clock in hcmorning; but the bird
shrieked out, Papa! papaI' until it
woke its mistress and frightened the
robbers away. Papa" was the watch
man, who was absent from tho house on
duty.
A Chicago parrot also once scared a
burglar. He was trying to gain an en-
trance into the house by the dining room
window, when he was startled bya voice
that asked him to 'come off the perch. -
Long silence ensued, and the burglar
began work again. Once more he was
ordered in sepulchral tones to "come of
the perch" This strange voice at dead
Of night bidding him to cease his evil
doing was moro than the man could
stand, and he hastily left the scene.

Senators and Flowers.

Senator Teller has one of tho prettiest
gardens in the northwest. And oh!
what stories tho roses could tell there,
The senator's favorite relaxation all sum-
mer Is to pay diligent attention to his
flower beds.
Constituents, caucus managers and
other gentlemen who want to whisper
little suggestions in the senator's chr
find him every evening armed with a
hose sprinkler going around among the
flowers, and rs they talk they follow
him around from bush to bush. They
might not get I'll they want, but the
senator has pleasure and relaxation
from his garden work, and boasts the
prcttiest kept lawn and flower beds in
his neighborhood.
Senator Evarts has q nice garden, but
he does not deserve any special mention
for it. It. is Mrs. Evarts' particular caro-
and pride to spend her mornings weed
ing the beds, and when tho senator and
herself sit down for their after dinner
talk they get a great deal of pleasure
from viewing tho bright blossoms all
around tho windows. .-Wasllington Let

American na.ors I'm Demand.

The best razors no longer como from
Sheffield, and even Englishmen are alive
to the fact. The best customers for ra-
zors are of English and Scotch descent,
as very few Germans or Irishmen act as
their own BARRIERS. Formerly nothing
without a genuine or fraudulent Shelf
field trade mark cut into the blade would
be looked at by an cx-subject of Queen
Victoria, but now American goods are
generally preferred, and some eastern
makes arc very popular. The greatest
run tho last two years has been on a
razor with distinctly military name,
and although 1 have sold great many
of the kind 1 don't know where they are
made. But tho fact is immatcrial, for

thing connected with one in any respect
save price, and even that is not serious.

"MOncy Coos"

The old saying that ''money goc." !"
was illustrated recently. A customer
rendered a SEQ bill. The tradesman had
it changed by neighbor, who, being
in u hurry, gavc pocket piece of $40 in
gold of tho issue of 1861, which he priced
highly and did not want to part with.
He went to the tr;stlcsman as soon rs he
had given tho valued coin, and the lat
ter went out and hunted up the custo-
mer to whom he had given it. He had
bought some cigars at q neighboring
store and had given tho gold piece in
payment.
Upon going to tho cigar store it was
found that the proprietor had trans
ferred the coin to q saloon keeper near
by, and at that place it was found that
the saloon keeper had used it in liquida-
ting his brewery bill. The next day a
neighbor went to the brewery and found
that tho cashier of that institution had
just parted with tho coveted piece of
money to dissatisfied employe. The
individual was at last located and the
coin recovered.-Chicago Times.

Speaking Ho.d of Brass.

eASSsA
Upon the authority Of several passages
in history we are led to believe that ia
nous wizards, magicians and astrologers
have constructed not less than six brazen
heads which possessed all the faculties
of speech.
The first Of these was constructed by
Monk Gerbert, who afterward became
pope, with the title of Sylvester II. Tho
head is said to have predicted that Ger
bert would be pope, and that he would
not die until he had said mass in Jeru-
salem. After the first part of the proph-
ecy had been fulfilled and he had placed
the papal tiara upon his head he resolved
to live forever by steering clear Of Jeru-
salem.
While saying mass one day in small
church in IL suburb of Rome Sylvester
was taken with sudden rigor. Know
ing that his end was near he asked the
rector if the church had any special
name. Being informed that it was pop
ularly called Jerusalem" he closed his
eyes and died within IN hour.
The second "brazen speaking head
was made by Robert Grosseteste, an
Italian bishop residing in London. be-
tween the years 1175-1259.
The third is said to have been tho re-
suit of thirty years labor on the part of
Albertus Magnus. who was born in the
year 1905 A. D.
Friar Bacon, who died in 1904, is given
the credit of having made brazen head
which constantly repeats the words,
Time comes, time is, times past" The
Marquis Of Vilena Q3s4-143I also made
speaking head of sheet brass.
A Polish disciple of Escotello made
the sixth and last of the famous "speak-
ing heads Of brass. st. Louis Repub-

Headache is also sometimes due to
troubles within tho nose and cars Every
one knows that pain in the forehead is
very constant symptom of a common
cold. in which the nasal passages are in-
volved. There are other affections Of
these parts, some to which little or no
importance is attached by the victim,
which may give rise to the same symp-
toms. DR.. Brunton says: LAS far as
my experience goes, headache depending
upon disease Of tho nose is at the top Of

Talking about making people laugh
Lew Dockstader says:
remember l once sat up two nights
to prepare a batch of new Jokes and
then sprung them on my audience. The
house was packed with people. Not a
smile, not a ripple. Finally began to
weaken. The cold chills wera playing
peek-a-boo up and down my spinal col.

ia desperation I walked to the middle Of
the stage and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, / merely tell
these things; don't explain them"
The remark caused a kind of con-
sumptive grin. Since that time have
told so,no of those jokes in every large
city in the United States, and they have
proved to be the best things have ever
had. Fhe secret of how to raise a laugh
is always in the kindergarten stage. No
matter how hard man tries he never
seems to get beyond the A BIC of it

hundreds of operatives, arc now at work
preparing feathers for market Tho
feathers como in great quantities from
different sections of Europe, and from
China and other parts of Asia. Tho
bales are opened near kind of gin or
breaker, which shakes out the feathers
and throws them around in chamber
through which a strong air current is
passing. From this machine they pass
to others, in which the long and heavy
feathers are separated by pentilators

Some Business sucucs,;o,s

Does your business pay? Could you

Some business mon are always Oh the

of old ones. Tho best and chcapcst
method to get new customers is by nd
vertising in an cnterprising newspaper.
Advertising doesn't sell any mans
goods, it only lets the people, the pur-
chascls, know where to find thcm The
newspaper that is read by the most pco-
pie is tho one in which to advertise.
There is II great deal in writing ;,n at

your ads. your best attention?
If you expect to do u large business on

you will get left. Tho ones You don't

Instances have been cited where large
advertisers have gone under. This was
not the fault of tho advertising, but of

specializing in advertising the same as

Tho newspaper that takes advertising

1t is rarely ever proper to strike met

clearly foolish, and no fear associated
with it in tho creatures mind, such as
nipping his mate, or reaching round the
head to SEQ if you are about ready, or
backing when you have no room, and
must be obeyed with bound; then
gentle reminder with tho whip is we'll
enough. On raro occasions authority
may be maintained by enforcing fear.
Yet if you terrorize the creature he will
hate you. 1t seems hard for horse or

forgive in the sense that men do This
fact is often lost sight of by thoughtless
people in their intercourse with dumb
animals.-New York Weekly.
