Didn't Know HIM.

When an obscure man suddenly bObs
up as candidate for high office, by
reading the newspapers he can discover
how little he is known. The leading pa
pers of the State knew nothing of Judge
briggs, who was nominated for Supreme
Judge, and they butchered up his name
and location in a shocking manner One
of them called him John Drake, another
called him Drigg, and located him in
Morrow county, while another called
Briggs, and did not know where he was
from. However, it will not make much
difference about his name after the cleo
ton.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. %. Coroner
Marker has furnished the press with a
copy of his verdict in the case .Qf. the re-
cent Surgical institute fire. The verdict
is a complete whitewash. It is very
voluminous and fills two columns Of
nonpareil. It finds that the nine.
teen victims of the institute tnet:their
death by suffocation and not by burn
ing; that ali might have. escaped but
for their fright and excitement; that
adequate. means of protection and

that the management did not

notices of the location of the fire.

posted, but it was held that 1.-THE ac-
quaintance and familiarity of inmates
with the construction of the building
probably obviated the necessity OF
this The conclusion of the coroner
is that the management furnished all
reasonable appliances for protection
and it is therefore held blame1ess.

There's 7eOt/tsaeg lett
Of Catarrh, when you use DR.. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. With the poison
GUS. irritating snuffs and strong,
caustic solutions, a good deal IS
left. They may, perhaps, stop it
for a time, but there's danger of
driving it to the lungs. They work
on false. principles.
But; Pr. Sage's Remedy cures it,
no matter how bad the case, or of
how long standing. Not only Ca
tarrh itself, but Catarrhal Headache,
Cold in the Head every thing
catarrhal in it's nature. The worst
cases yield to its mild, soothing,
cleansing and healing properties.
So will yours. You may not be-
lieve it, but the proprietors of Dr..
.Sage's Remedy do.
And to prove it they make you
this offer:
If they can't cure you, they'll
pay you $500 in cash. It's a bust
ness proposition from a responsible
house.
But do you think they'd make
it if. they, and yo,s, couldn't depend
upon their medicine?

MENDINo STOCKINGS.

Pair Of baby's stockings!
They are small and black and plain,
But I find sweet satisfaction
In looking them over again
Imended these same stockings
1t must be two years ago
And then they were laid in the drawer;
There was no one to wear them, you know
For our own beautiful baby
Had gone to a fairer cline;
She had entered the golden city
Where we hope to meet her some time.
And though in the mending basket
There still were stockings small,
There were none for a tiny baby
With daintiest feet Of all.
Yet again from the open Heaven
A wonderful gift has come,
And the sound Of a baby's cooling
Is heard again in our home.
And tiny feet are moving
Along the nursery floor,
And dainty baby stockings
Are needed now once more.
Is it strange that find pleasure
In taking them in my hand?
They speak of our newest treasure,
And of one in the Fatherland.
Mary j. Porter, in Harper's Bazaar.
