My friend, the owl, with his big round eyes,
Says never word

But boots at our foliies In mild surprise.
The things he can't tell (here his secret lies)
He doesn't disclse,
And every one knows
That thousands of men aren't half so wise.

The WOuld-be Politician.
Dayton World.

Dayton World.
He thought he had mission
To be = politician
And show the boys some tricks they never knew
He had y little money.
This may indeed sound funny,
For In politics It's ''boolle, - ''tn' and 'gue
He was very good fellow.
10 good, 20 kind, 10 mellow.
The gang all grew to love him more and more.
They pushed him and they groomed him,
They pulled him and they doomed him.
They swelled his head fourteen by twenty -four
He kept the Doodle flowing.
The gang kept loudly blowing.
They had cinch on everything In sight.
They kept him swiftly moving,
They said he was improving;
lie never slept wink by day or night.
He never kicked or grumbled,
He never even tumbled;
lie thought he soon get ONCE, honor, fame.
But, alas, In the convention
His name they didn't mention,
And he didn't have dollar to his name!

Spring Fever.

At this season Of theyear the most vigorous
and hearty people often have a feeling Of
WEAKNESS, tired and worn out, without amb-
ton to do anything, and many break out in
pimples and boils. What you require is a
Mill tonic medicine that will act gently on
the liver and blood, and for this, nothing
equals DIR. Gums improved liver pills.
They give an activity to the liver, purify the
blood and by their mild tonic action, new
vitality and strength to the entire system.

One of the most important
scientific explorations into the
depths of the earth ever under
taken will be carried out near
Wheeling, West Virginia, under
the joint auspices of the United
States government and the city Of
Wheeling. Some months ago the
Wheeling Development company
began drilling we'll near the city
in search of oil or gas. 1t was
determined to bore as far as posi-
BILE. The hole has already reached
the depth of 1890 feet, within 200
feet of the deepest we'll in the world.
In this distance a dozen of thick.
veins of coal have been passed; oil
and gas both struck, but not in
paying quantities, and gold quartz,
iron, and many other minerals
found. The hole is eight inches in
diameter and the largest in
diameter of any deep we'll in the
world. The government will take
up the work under the direction Of
two expert officers of the Geological
survey aad drill into tho earth AS
far as human skill can penetrate.
The idea is to take the temperature
and magnetic conditions as far as
possible, and by means of an in
strument constructed for the pur-
pose complete record of the pro-
gress and all discoveries will be
kept.
