A boy in Wichita, Kas., school has been suspended for reading ths follow ing essay on ''pants:" Pants art made for men and not men for pants. Women are made for men and not for pants. When man pants for $ woman or woman pants for man they are 9 pair of pants. Such pants don't last, Pants are like molasses, thinner in hot weather and thicker in cold. The man in the moon changes his pants during an eclipse. Meu are often mistaken in pants. Such mis- takes are brooches 0f promise. There has been much discussion as to whet'i- CT pants is singular or plural. Seems to us when men wear pants they arc plural and when they don't wear any 1t is singular. Men get on a tear in their pants and 1t is all right, but when the pants get on tear 1t is all wrong. -l louisville Times.

Death having entered the house
h 'ld of Comrade II. j. Minthorn
aud bereaved lis family of a daugh-
ter just biOssoming into woman
hood, therefore be It
Resolved, that Post Sedgwick,
No. 10, G.. A. II. offers its sincere
coincidence with our comrade In this
hour of severe afiiiction and pray
that the Almighty who giveth and
taketh away viii sustain him under
this painful bereavement.
In the shock Of battle Death, the
reaper, mows down entire ranks,
and the feelings of the survivors are
too much absorbed to attend to the
destroyer's ravages; but in the hush
of the sick chamber the touch of his
ice finger impresses with benumb-
ing grief the senses of the sorrowing
friends.
Resolved, that the above resolu-
tions be inscribed on the minutes of
this post, and that copies of the same
be furnished by the aujutant to the
family aud to the city journals for
publication.

Toe tendency Of this disease to-
ward pneumonia is what makes Il
dangerous, La Grippe requires pre-
cisely the same treatment az a severe
cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
Is famous for its cures Of severe colds.
This remedy efiectually counter
acts the tendency Of the disease TO
result In pneumonia, provided that
proper care be taken to avoid ex-
posure when recovering from the At
tack. Careful inquiry among the
many thousands who have used this
remedy during the epidemIcs Of the
past two years has failed to discover
a single case that has not recovered
or that has resulted in pneumonia.
