A Pretty Live Corpse.

The partisan press Of the country
are shouting over the idea that the
sub-treasury is dead, and as proof
of this fact they tell about McAllis-
ter kicking out. They don't men
ton the thousands who stand firm
to the demands of the order. They
shout themselves hoarss because
one Alliance in Alabama disbanded
because the demands were wrong !;
but they seem to forget that sixteen
hundred have not disbanded because
the demands are right. Now we
would modestly suggest to those
gentlemen that Josh Billings said
if he were going to preach a mules
funeral he would get at it's head.
So if you are going to preach the
funeral of the sub-treasury, be care
full lest you stand at the kicking
end, as you will find it about the
liveliest corpse you have ever
monkeyed with.-Alliance Vlndlca-
tor, Kosciusko, Miss.

ScOtt'S Sub-Treasury.

The new book of lecturers, Scott
on the sub-treasury plan as endorsed
in the platform of the Peoples party
at Cincinnati, is complete and
wonderfully clear and comprehen-
sive statement and argument 1t is
certain to become the standard
work on that subject. Henceforth
no speaker or editor can afford to
discuss this question without first
giving this book careful perusal.
Bro. Scott is the best qualified man
in the states to present this subject
He has studied it in all its phases,
and he writes honestly, calmly,
graphically and convincingly-
1t is a book for the multitude as
we'll as for the philosopher. 1t is a
book that every one should read.
No one can afford not to read it.
The fact that as it's pages went to
press they passed under the eagle
eve of J. G. Hubbard adds immense
ly to it's value and will place it's
utter reliability as to facts and
figures absolutely beyond ques-
ton. 1t is the most valuable book
of the decade.

Her First NCWS.

Among the uninjured passengers in
the Ravenna disaster was a young man,
a New Yorker. who had been on a visit
to a maiden aunt living in a western
city. She was a devout Christian, and
had been much concerned over certain
worldly tendencies in this her favorite
nephew. On the day Of his departure
she had especially pleaded with him to
renounce the mammon of unrighteous-
ness, alternating her prayers with ner-
vous fears over his coming journey.
When the young man got out of his
car after the collision, considerably
bruised and shaken up. he realized his
aunts anxiety if she should read of the
accident, and rushing tt the telegraph
office wired her the emotional message.
Thank God, I'm saved"
The dispatch was received before any
tidings came of the casualty, and the
gentle soul supposed that her nephew
had suddenly came to a realizing sense
of his spiritual condition, and much re-
joiced thereat she wrote a long letter of
grateful congratulation to him, and told
the happy news to her little coterie of
intimates before she discovered her seri-
ous mistake. Her Point of View in

A Talk About This Popular Clothing
House.

House.
Buying a suit of clothes is one of those
painful episodes in a mans life which
he dislikes to recall, and to which he
looks forward with feelings the reverse
of pleasant. The frequency with which
these deceptive garments fail to turn out
as represented and the disgust and dis
satisfaction consequent upon such pur-
chases auses the would-be customer to
be slow in choosing and to look with
distrust upon bargain counters and
goods usually recommended by the
clothier as cheap"
In buying a diamond you want to be
sure that the jeweler is an honest man.
SO in buying ready made clothing you
want to be certain you are dealing with
| gentlemen.
w. A. Slater & Co. come under this
head, and the man or boy who puts him.
self in their hands can rest satisfied that
he is not only well dressed, but that he
has not been robbed.
The gentlemen composing this firm
have long been identified with this city,
and since going into the clothing bust
ness six months ago have made things
huns. Mr.. Slater has been in the cloth
ing business for the past eighteen years,
and no man knows it more thoroughly
in all it's details. Five years on the road
as salesman for a leading Baltimore firm,
after a valuable experience in the retail
establishment of the same firm, have rem
dered him one of the best posted and
best equipped clothing men to be found
anywhere.
Former customers of the firm of
Lambe, Slater and German will recOg-
niZe him as a late partner in that popu-
lar clothing house, as was also Mr.. Cor
man, who is the company in the firm of
w. A. Slater & Co.
If you want anything in the clothing
line, don't fail to call on Slater & Co., at
their new store corner Main and Man
gum streets. They will fix you out.

Handy to Have Around.

Among the ~conveniences, almost ne
cessities, kept in the pantry by every
housewife, are pieces of blotting paper,
a bottle of iodide of potash and a solu,
ton of starch. This is most fortunate,
because | read in the paper tGIay that
after the passage of an electric storm a
good deal of ozone is left sneaking around
behind the stove, in the cellaSway, up in
the garnet and so on. With the articles
mentioned lying handy Oh the pantry
shelf, all n has to do to detect this
ozone is to make a compound of the
iodide of potash and the starch solution,
and then dip the blotting paper in the
compound. If it turns blue it is ozone.

AN ADVENTURE WITH WOLVES.
A Young Girl with the Aid OF Her Faith
full Pony Secures Four Bodies.

A. Young Girl with the Aid of Her Faith
full Pony Secures Four Bodies.
Once Nebraska had been to visit at
her neighbours and started for home
when it was nearly dark; but as it was
q moonlight night she did not feel lonely
and had just thought, "What a lovely
evening for a ride!" when she heard pat
ter1ng steps. Looking around, she saw
two wolves stealthily following. She
urged her pony to his greatest speed, and
tried to think out what she should do,
for she was by this time only half way
home, and seven miles from the nearest
house.
She kept perfectly still because she
knew that if she screamed before she was
attacked, although it would scare the
animals away for a time, they would
return and would soon get used to the
noise and not be frightened by it. She
felt certain go few of them would not
dare attack her, for wolves are very
cowardly, but she also knew that they
would summon the rest Of the pack
almost instantly.
The wolves were now in full pursuit,
and she, glancing back, saw there were
three. She was alarmed indeed now.
and as they were gaining on her every
minute she knew something must be
done if she was to reach home alive.
She knew the wolves would not long
hesitate to attack her, for there was quite
a large pack Of them gathering Her
pony, too, shifted danger, and the next
instant, before she cOmprehended what
he was going to do, he had turned and
sprung right into the midst of the snarl-
ing pack, paving and kicking right and
leftl
He had not forgotten his wild habits,
nor how he had many times saved him
self from the ferocious animals. And
nov his bravery stood his mistress in
good stead, for as his feet came down on
the wolves fierce yelps showed that he
was not dealing gentle taps. In a few
seconds there were four stretched dead
on the ground, and the others had fed.
The young rider had thought, as soon
as she knew what he was going to do,
that she was safe if she could keep on
his back, and this required all her
strength and skill. When the pack was
gone she looked down at the lead bodies
and shuddered rs she thought Of her mar
row escape With 10 injuries and only
a few anxious minutes she had secured
four dead wolves, worth more than fifty
dollars.
She ~dismounted and slung them over
Pawnee's back and then galloped home.
No need of saying that her father and
mother were surprised to see her come
up to the dOOr and exhibit triumphantly
four slain wolves!
After this glorious exploit the pony
was more petted than before. Did he not
deserve it:-Eate NJ. Putney in st.

Every Inch a Soldier.

a good story is told on one of the
officers connected with a local militia
company. For a number of days before
the inspection of the citizen soldiery the
officer in question would each afternoon
retire to the privacy Of his own bed
chamber, in the second story of his resi-
dence, and after dressing himself in full
regimentals would put an imaginary
company Of soldiers through a lively
course of drilling. He would clasp his
sword at the hilt with one hand and at
the point with the other, and her walk
backward as if viewing the alignment of
his troops.
1t SO happened that while going
through this maneuver one afternoon,
he walked backward into an open stair
way and tumbled into a heap on the
floor Of the room below, and presented
anything but a soldierly and dignifed
appearance as he lay there rubbing his
bruises. His good wife was in the room
attending to some household duty, and
she rushed to the side of the fallen hero,
and in anxious and tender voice asked
him-if he were hurt.
With a quick bound her husband re-
gained his feet, and coming to an Sat
tention," in q voice Of thunder roared
out: Hurt? No, woman; what do you
know about WARP and then ran back
up stairs and dismissed his soldiers
