day. A distinguished place is kept at
The table for his son-in-law, celebrat-
ID warrior, David by name. The guests,
jeweled and plumed, come in and take
their places.
When people are invited to q king
banquet, they are very apt to go. But
before the covers are lifted from the
feast, Saul looks around and finds a
vacant seat at the table. He says within
himself, perhaps audibly: "What does
this mean? Where is my son-in-law?
Where is David, the great warrior? l
invited him. expected him. What! a
vacant chair at the kings banquet?''
The fact was that David, the warrior,
.ad been seated for the last time at his
father-in-law's table. The day before
Jonathan had coaxed David to 60 and
occupy that place at the table, saying
TO David in the. words OF my text:
''Thou shalt be missed, because thy seat
will be empty" The prediction was
fulfilled. David was missed His seat
was empty. That one vacant chair
spoke louder than all the occupied
chairs at the banquet.

one Dyspepsia Cure.

Eugene Field in Chicago News.
The cure of dyspepsia is surely to
be effected only by the adoption of
negative means; commission will do
nothing, omission everything.
Mr.. Al. Cox, the binder, thinks
differently. He believes heartily in
the sins of commission. For years
he bad dyspepsia in all its
forms and phases; he be-
came reduced to the attenuated
condition of skeleton; folks used TO
stop in the street to look at him; life
became veritable burden to him
This sort of thing went along" says
Mr.. Cox, "until finally / grew very
tired. One evening l sat down and
made al estimate of the drugs / had
taken, the doctors bills L had paid,
etc. AS figured it, the medicine 1
had consumed in six years cost more
and weighed more than the victuals
had eaten. L had spent on doc
tors enough money to fill a dozen

Yes, we'll, when it comes says l.,

I'm going to tackle some of those
sausages.'
"Wife protested, but in vain; just
filled myself full of hot, juicy sau-
sages-yes, and of buckwheat cakes,
too.

Some Tobacco Statistics.

Philadelphia Times.
The census statistics of the produc-
ton of tobacco are complete. They
are of gread Importance, as showing
the shifting that has taken place. The
northwest it is predicted, will eVentu-
ally become 3 great tobacco-growlng
region. The tobacco grown there now is
wholly for home consumption, and
cuts no figure even in the primary
markets of the United States. But
the special agents of the census Office
report that there are large areas IN
that region which could be probably
utilized in the culture of tobacco for
export.
4 remarkable decrease is shown in
the New England states, which were
once large producers of tobacco. This
is accounted for by the fact that the
importation of Sumatra wrappers has
practically driven the seed-leaf grow
ers out of the business and compelled
the abandonment of 30 many farms
as to cause general alarm. Supt. Por-
ter saws that the high duty on Suma-
ira leaf imposed by the Mckinley bill
has greatly encouraged the growers
of that section, and predicts that the
crop this year will be phenomenal
one.
The increase in New York and Wis
consin, both of which States were
formerly heavy producers of seed
leaf, is due to the fact that the plan
tiers were driven into growing the ex'
port variety, the Sumatra having
compelled them to abandon seed
leaf. The most remarkable increase
during the past ten years has occurred
in Florida, where the number OF
pounds produced has increased from
q 900 to 100000 pounds. Northern
capital has poured into the State,
syndicates have purchased large
tracts of what was supposed to be
worthless land, factories have been
erected and a general era of prosperity
has set in. The tobacco grown is OF
the finest variety, bringing SOC to 75c
per pound in the leaf.

Erelu.lvenes. of English sparrow..

What a pity that even our English sparrows have caught the spirit of un- charitab bleness toward their kind! On one of the cold days, when even with their heavy feather coats these little Outcasts found it difficult to keep com fortable, one of the flock who live down on the Back bay. found a cozy, sunny nook in the sheltered corner of q fence, and called his friends tO share the comfort with him. Many respond cd to the invitation, until nearly all the space was occupied; tLen along flew another bird and took one of the remaining empty spaces, but he was i'm mediately rebuffed in a way that was more emphatic than polite. Again he tried his luck beside another bird, and again he received the same rude treat ment, heinz literally pushed of the rail. The third time he tried the end ro0sJ, but JO no purpose: there was not a bird in that select coterie who would tolerate him for a moment, and in de- spair he winged his way, it is to be hoped, into more polite company. He was not in ''our set" Boston Post
