Fears Not Realized.

Archbishop French was at 4 dinner
party, when it was noticed that he was
quite silent for awhile and looked
grave. AT the same time it was OBJ
served that the lady at his rlght-hand
side was blushing deeply. AT last his
Grace said in IA lamentable voice:
My worst fears are realized; there
can be no longer any doubt of it."
"Of what." asked the pathetic
hostess.
I" That paralysis has really taken
hold of me" answered the Archbishop
I" l am sure Of it. have been pinch
ing nay right knee for several minutes
and | cannot feel the least sensation"
The lady on his right was able 10
comfort him.
Il hope it is net so bad as you
think" she said " it was my knee you
were pinching."

The Family Recorder

That" said tbs quite little woman,
as she was showing her guest over he
house, " is my hall photograph and
family record taker. My husband and
my sons all talk into it when they
came home at night. and each has TO
give the hour at which he came in
Bat mightn't they give the wrong
hour?" asked the visitor.
"ob, yes; but don't care about that
particularly said the little woman
carelessly. I'll shows me their cohdi-
ton, and that's what want, you
know. Now you stick those liltle
things in your ears and I'll turn the
switch aud we'll see what the report is
this morning
The visitor followed Instructions,
and then the little woman asked her if
she saw the value of it? Then the
little woman took the report herself
and she grew red in the face as the
machine began:
"Il'sh 2 z. m. n I'm glad Of it
Whoopeepel Fullef'n a goat and had
more fun than a box OF monkeys |
Whoopla, Maria. vow-wl I'll burstr'
Then she shut the machine of and
said faintly:
George must be playing joke on
me-"
There was more of sarcasm than
sympathy in the tone of the visitor as
she replied coldly:
Il presume So" Then she added,
But | wouldn't put the family re-
corder on exhibition. = Chicago Tri-

The Barn Yard.

Set out a number Of plum trees in
your POULTRY yards this Fall, if you
have not already done so. Besides fur
nishing the much needed shade in
Summer, they will bear much more
and better fruit when planted in the
poultry yard than they do when planted
in the orchard.
When selecting the male TO head
your breeding yard, never select long,
gangling, over-grown one. 1t is al
most impossible to fill him up aud fat
ten him, and then he never makes a
good table fowl. Select one of the
blocky form, and il even under
standard weight the chicks will be of
better shape and make more desirable
fowls for market.

A Mystery

How the human system ever re-
covers from the bad effects of the
nauseous medicines often literally
poured into it for the suppostive relief
of dyspepsia, liver complaint, consti-
patton, rheumatism aud other ailments,
is mystery. The mischief done by
bad medicines is scarcely less than
that caused by disease. If they who
are weak, bilious, dyspeptic, consti-
pated or rheumatic, would ottener be
guided by the experience of invalds
who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's
Stomach B,tters, they would IN every
instance obtain the speediest aid de-
rivable from rational medication. This
medicine is searching ana at the
same time a thoroughly safe remedy,
derived from vegetable sources, and
possessing, in consequence of its basis
of pure spirits, properties as a medi-
cinal stmulant n OF to be found in the
fiery local bitters and stimulants often
resorted to by the debilitated, dyspep-
tic and languid.

THE time Of the year has come
around again when schools open, and
when the boys and girls give benedc-
tion To the streets as they 60 to aud
come from school swinging their
satchels, and filing the streets with
voices nsrrier than the lark. A great
thing is the modern school, but the
greater thing still is the boy behind
the satchel. He is full of basel ball aud
marbles, he Is given to robbing birds
nests and melon patches, chm ins
trees, tearing his clothes, having his
nose barked, and having infinite trou-
BILE making clear explanations To his
mother why he is what he is. But
they are great chaps after all, and a
person wants to live in country
where they do not exist TO understand
what blank and fool old world this
would be without children.
The school Is an institution which,
n n ihioi hiSi. puis lt5 gently tDFCk On
the bits of the boys enthusiasm, and
turns it in another channel which
leads It up to make what was the
crown and glory OF the boy, the crown
and glory Of the man. The ancient
world did many splendid things: ils
manhood developed in many exalted
FERNS. All the nights and depths of
erstory were explored and its full
power brought out; in many OF the
arts there was grace attained which
modern men dare not hope 10 emulate.
Poetry had its birth and grew to full
perfection; there were soldiers as great
a. the modern world can boast, but
there was nothing like our mission
schools, and in no other way Is the
superior grace or modern civilization
any better illustrated than in that one
thing-our schools compared with The
ancient schools.

He Had a Dream,

A negro had gone to sleep in the sun
on the platform of railway station in
South Carolina, and some of the boys
put up job to have some fun with him.
A bag of shelled corn was laid across his
knees, second on his stomach and a
third ON his head. AS the weight didn't
waken him, another bag was placed on
his stomach, making about $40 pounds
resting there He snored away for three
minutes, grew uneasy, began to mutter,
and at the end of five threw the sacks
off and sat up and looked around in a
dazed way.

of the jokers.
