The Fate Of Z 4Qaster.

I went to Leadville during the first
Wild hurrah and managed to pick up :
few shekels specnlatingin town lott" " satd
E. G. Fur, IS he passed around box Of
Mexican cigars to his companions in the
Lindell corridors. 1.-THE town was full
of grog shops, dance houses, bad men
and worse women. I was direct from
the east, and the big oaths and monstrous
guns kept mo for awhile in constant ex-
pectahon of . violeat death. ! soon
learned, however, that it is not always
the man who can swear the loudest and
carry the most pistols that is most to be
dreaded. There was one big fellow, with
long black hair and snapping eyes, whose
look might quell lion. He admitted
that he had killed seventeen men and was
not averse to making it an even score.
He carrind half-grown Calling gun on
his hip and wore nine inch knife with >
buckhorn handle in his boot. I used to
treat him with deferential courtesy l
would hardly show to the Russian Car
and buy him drinks at two bits shot
whenever he intimated that the water did
not agree with him.
"One day little dried-up miner from
Wisconsin was assiduously cultivating a
high lonesome, and the Leadville war god
concluded to ring in on it. He lounged
up to the bar, slapped the perambulating
skeleton between the shoulders and an
nounced his intention to drink with him.
The lean badger replied that he worked
for his money, and was not using it to fill
up buffers with bug juice at two bits a
drink. The bad man sized him up, con
cluded that he was very drunk and that
he would use him as a sponge to mop off
the counter. He turned to the crowd and
said apologetically: Gentlemen, it
would be shame to hit SIGH an ornerY
specimen o. humanity as this yere; it
would be murder to shoot SIGH tender
foot; but I cant swallow his CUFF. I'll
list hist him on the counter and But
he didn't. The 'ornery specimen o. hu-
manity' kicked him under the chin and
sent him clear through the side of the
board shanty. He did not return. l
spent no more money purchasing the
good will of bad men" st. Louis Globe

By Her Woman's Tact.

A young couple in Lancashire village
had been counting for a number Of
years without any signs of "poppin2" on
the part of the man. One day he said to
the young woman:
"Sal, Gamma marry thee"
Allows that2" said she.
rI've changed my mind" said he.
"Well, I'll tell you what we'll do, }" said
she. "If folk knows that It's thee as has
given me up | shsnna be able to get an
other chap, but if they think have
given thee up then / can easy get another
chap. So we'll have the banns published,
and when the wedding day comea the par
son will say to thee, wilt thou have this
woman to be thy welded wifei' and thou

The day came and when the minister
said, "Wilt thou have this woman to be

Then the parson said to the woman
"Wilt thou have this man to be thy

sease make a wreck Of her formei

most entirely destroyed, aud the
slightest noise would throw her into
a nervous spasm, which would last
for hours. Medical skill failed to
BRING any relief.
Through the recommendation oi
an eminent divine we were induced
TO try the Electropoise. After a per-
sistent use Of the instrument, the
effect has been wonderful. Her
nervous system has been restored "a
its almost, normal condition; her
digestion is wonderfully improved,
she Is rapidly gaining in flesh; and,
upon the whole, is making a rapid
recovery, which speaks volumes for
the wonderful curative powers Of
the Electropolse, as her case Wa

His Farewell Sermon.

It is related of a dissenting
minister that he started a church
in a rural district, but his con.
gregation being incerrigible
snorers, and, what he consider
ed worse, mean contributors to
the cause, he was soon obliged
to abandon it. His farewell ser
mon to the lukewarm brethren
was characterized by more heat
than elegance. He ended thus;
SAT the last day the Lord will
say to st. Peter, Where is your
fiock?' and st. Peter will an
swer, Here, Lord He will say
to Calvin, and where are your
sheep:' and Calvin will reply,
Here, Lord And so all the
shepherds can answer. But
when he asks me, Where are
your Sheep how will you feel
when l am compelled to reply,
Lord, | haven't any; mine were

Rambling Tlnnghts.

Beer, like vanity, puffeth up.
Patrimony is a desirable ad-
junct to matrimony.
Christian fortitude comes from
association with kindly acts.
Popularity is a phantom, pur-
sued by many and secured by
few.
Indifference to responsible
ties brings disappointment and
grief.
Modern honesty is the decep-
tion practiced by the strong to-
ward the weak.
The recollection of past dis
appointments serves to increase
the appreciation Of present sue
cesses.
Folly is the glass through
which we may see more clearly
the beauties of the path of strict
adherence to duty.
Greatness is the pad with
which many would Blot from
memory the history of the days
spent in menial emplOyments.
As time is an infinitesimal
part of eternity, so is the love
of man for others to the love Of
God for His created beings.
The rose that is desired most,
is the one that conceals q thorn:
the temptation that influences
most, is the one that stings its
victim.
Some people have private
boxes in which the gifts of God
may be placed and received at
will, without acquaintance with
the giver.
The warm, firm grasp Of a
christian hand binds together
once more the better elements
of a mans character, and causes
him to see a light that had been
obscured before.

EVIDENTLY, there is some re.
ciprocity wanted at Newfound.
land. One Of the papers there
accuses American fishermen
'of smuggling quantities Of
goods into the island Of fogs,
Ito the detrimsnt of our trad.
.ers." The American fishing
schooners touch at the island
Of st. Pierre, off the coast be.
tween Fortune and Placentia
bays. They go there to find
out where the herring catch is.
But somehow when they come
10 Newfoundland they have on
board q large quantity "of rum,
gin, tea and tobacco" They
did not carry these articles from
the United State with them
and the said goods never paid
duty at Sc. Pierre. The Amer
can fishermen must have fishdt
them up cut of the sea.

4 Boys Essay on Breath

A little boy in the North Side
Public School recently handed
in to the teacher this following
composition on "Our Breath -
"Our breath is made of air,
If it were not for our breath we
would die. The breath keeps
going through our liver, our
lights, and our lungs. Boys
shut up in a room all day should
not breathe, they should wait
until they get out doorz. Air
in a room has carbonocids in it,
and carbonocide is poisoner
than mad dogs. Once some
men was shut up in a black
hole in India, a carbonocide
got into that there hole, and
afore morning nearly every one
of them was dead. Girls wear
.corSets which squeeze their dia-
grams to much. Girls cannot
run and holler like boys cause
their diagrams are squeezed.
III was a girl | would just run
and holler sonny diagram would
grow. That's all on breath. ~
