 On their return a short time ago, Mrs. Barnaby found package postmark ked Boston, which had arrived during her absence. It contained a small flask oi whisky, with the inscription: Accept this fine old whisky from your friends in the woods"
 few days later, returning from a drive, both ladies being thoroughly chilled, they drank some of the liquid. They were taken ill immediately after, and Mrs. Barnaby has died and Mrs. Warrel is in critical condition. A chemical analysis showed there was a large amount of arsenic in the whisky. There is no clew whatever to the perpe- tratOr,

His Undue Sign.

A striking signboard may sometimes
be the means of making its owners
fortune There are plenty of places in
New York where old umbrellas are
mended, but the west side member who
put up the sign Umbrella Hospitap'
struck an idea that none Of his rivels had
thought of. People laughed at it, took
a second glance at it, looked at the
place, and told their acquaintance about
it, thus advertising the umbrella hospital
and sending customers to it. Unless the
signs fail, that signboard will yet enrich
its inventor. Detroit Free Press.

The National Bird.

'sSome of our national emblems show
poor taste on the part of the people who
adopted them" said a stout little COM
mercial traveller in the Kimball House
corridor to a group Of acquaintance the
other day. "Bill Nye calls the eagle the
Il ald-headed EN- 5lem of American free
DOM He is not only bald headed, but
gluttonous, selfish and absolutely with
out a noble trait. He is king of birds,
simply on account Of his great strength
and ferceness. The cap of liberty, so
commonly seen in pictures on the head
of a fag-pole, is borrowed from the red
handed French communists. I never see
it but my mind reverts to the history of
those desperate times, when the cutters
of Paris ran deep with innocent blood.
l have no use for either the eagle or the
liberty cap. "-Atlanta Constitution.
