1t is worth while for any one who
wears clothes to refrain from purchas.
ing until he has taken a good look at
the fine stock of the Gabert Bros,
116 South Fourth street. They are
the leading tailors with the largest
and finest stock of goods ever brought
to Waco. They carry all the new and
nobby styles of the spring of '92
with such diversity that no one can
tail in finding goods to suit his own
particular fancy. When it comes to
cutting and fitting the Gabert Broth
ers are artists in every sense of the
word with the most skillful workmen
that can be procured. They give per
feet fits and somehow their clothes
have a look about them that only the
work of artists can produce. Give
them call and look over their big
fine stock before ordering a suit and
you will have no reason to regret any
order you may favor them with.

Birds Gathered His Almond Crop.

An almond grower of this locality hit
upon neat device for gathering his crop
last fall. His trees bore largely, aud
this early became known to the yellow
hammers, species of the woodpecker
tribe of birds, and they had regularly
stored away large quantities of ripe nuts
taken from the orchard in the limb of an
oak tree near by. The astute orchardist
watched operations, and at last hit upon
a novel nut and labor saving plan, and
he lost no time in putting it into execu-
ton.
The limb was sawed from the tree and
replaced by a square shaped funnel long
enough to nearly reach the ground; a
bucket was then set underneath. A
genuine robbing game then went merrily
on. The birds gathered the nuts, which
they dropped into the tunnel and down
into the bucket below, and as regularly
as night came the almond grower would
in his turn empty 1t of its contents and
set it back for new supply. This was
kept up until the entire crop had been
gathered, and the yellowhammers had
departed broken hearted at the hesrtless
deception practised upon them.-Sutter

The gross receipts of the Philadelphia
and Reading system will hereafter be
$50, 900, 600 annually, and the number
of its employees will approximate 100,-
900, being more than are employed by
any. single corporation on this planet.
The requirement of the Poughkeepsie
Bridge and the lines tributary thereto
throws the Reading and its entire aug
mented system into the very heart of
New England, giving it the only all.rail
route from the Middle and Southern
States to the East, with connections
with all important New England roads,
and enabling it to virtually control the
coal traffic of that entire region.

Bass and Butterfly.

was fishing for bass one day in quiet
pool on E!khorn Creek, near Frankfort,
KY, on the outer rim of what is known
as Gault's Bend, writes a correspondent.
A few yards above where was standing,
knee. deep in the water, was a broad shal.
low, where the current rippled over
sunken and about exposed rocks--before
subsiding in the deeper waters of the
pool. As drew my bait temptingly
across the pool in search of a hungry
bass, noticed yellow butterfly wing
ing its zig gag flight across the shallow
mentioned, and close 10 the surface Of
the water. When half way across, a
bass, probably not over quarter pound
weight, suddenly leaped from the water,
struck the butterfly with unerring aim,
and fell back with a splash in the shall
lows. The butterfly was hit hard, as it
fell dead or stunned in the stream about
three feet from where the bass had in
tercepted its flight, but unfortunately
the little gladiator, failed to recover his
prize, as it aoated undisturbed down
into the pool below.--Forest aud Stream.

Effects of Regular Marching.

DR.. Colin, regimental physician in the
French army, has published the results
of his Investigations into the effects of
regular marching In disciplined bodies
upon soldiers. The regularity of the
step causes the indefinite repitition of a
shock of the bones and brain, infinitely
more deleterious than an irregular walk,
and to this regular repetition of the
shock to the same parts of the body is
due the peculiar aches, pains and ILL
nesses of the troops. In a one days
march, he says, this shock is repeated
40, 900 times, and often the strongest
men, who can walk the same distance
without difficulty when not in line, sue
cumb to the strain in two or three days.
Or. Collins preventive is rubber heel in
all military boots. This heel has been
tried at his instance in the French in
fantry, he says, and the result has been
found to be great relief to the soldiers.
The experiments with the rubber heel
are still in progress.-Boston Tran
script.

A Nest in q Queer PIace.

In the picture gallery of Charlton
Park, near Malmesbury, England, is
glass case containing the skin aud feath-
ers of a big crow. The creature had
been caught and nailed to a tree with
other vermin, a fate which so many
thousands of crows share yearly that
there is nothing odd in it. The extraor-
dinary part of the matter is that in the
shelter OF his wings, where his body was
before it decayed, little wren had built
itself an exceedingly little nest. With
wonderful dexterity the tiny bird had
contrived to fasten together the wings of
his dead enemy, whose body he proposed
to utilize. The entrance to the nest was
where the crows breast had been, and
here the family of little wrens was
reared. The nest was observed, and
when its occupants had flown away it
was carefully removed, and placed in the
owners picture gallery.-New York Re-
corder.

The Boston Transcript says: The
decision of the Supreme Court that the
''habitual criminal" act is constitutional
is gratifying one. The act provides
that on conviction of third felony a
person may be sentenced to the State
Prison for twenty FIVE years. The prin-
cipal which underlies this legislation is
q sound one. The man who proposes to
live by preylng upon the community has
no right to live. in the community.
This is one of the propositions which
prison reformers long ago laid down,
and in securing the passage of the law,
which the court now sustains, they have
done the community a great service.

Asafetida as cure for "grp" has
been ridiculed by a great many physi-
clans, but most of them admit, adds the
New York Post, that they have never
prescribed it. In the West asafetida in
pills of four grains has been tried with
gratifying results. Quick recoveries are
reported in nearly every instance, with
out the usual sequel of debility. In
Louisville alone 20, 900 of the pills were
sold in one day recently. No bad effects
can follow the use of asaf@tida, for of
all things it is sedative. In Asiatic
countries it is employed as condiment,
but this is a use to which few persons
will cire to put it. Many old people in
the West who were far gone with the
disease have, it is asserted, been cured
by the asafetida pills. They should be
taken, according to their admirers, three
times day with glass of water, and
taken in this way are warranted not to
taint the breath.

EVERY DAY.

And the tumult OF the street
And ceaseless tread Of restless feet;
What varied human forms we meet,
Every day.
Some burdened with unwhispered woe;
Sad secrets God alone can know;
We see them wandering TO and fro,
Every day.
Some scared by times decay or blight;
With furrowed brow and fading sight,
Who haunt our feet from morn till night
Every day.
Some swayed by passion deep and strong,
Enkindled by some burning wrong,
Unheeded by the listless throng,
Every day.
The lust of power, the greed for gain,
Twin tyrants of the heart and brain;
We see the ruin of their reign,
Every day.
The crafty ghouls that throng the street,
Wearing the garments of deceit;
Who breathe TO lie and live to cheat
Every day.
And some aspiring to be great,
With beaming eye and heart elate,
Scorning the thorny thrusts of fate,
Every day.
The youth enthralled by some fond dream,
Or borne along on fancy's stream,
Believing all things what they seem,
Every day.
The aged tottering toward the tomb,
No light to lift their rayless gloom,
Nor hope their weary way illume,
Every day.
The rich and poor, the old and young,
With silent lip or fluent tongue,
And griefs untold or joys unsung,
Every day.
Thus In the drama of the town,
Some bear a cross or wear crown
Until death rings the curtain down.
Every day.

THE OLD sPINET.

Within an upper room IL stands,
A garret corner grim and gray
Where spiders spin their silken strands
Molested by no sunlight ray.
Yet danes and damsels, dare say,
Have loved its music; to and fro
Their lily hands were wont to stray
On that old spinet, years ago.
/ often fancy ghostly bands
A stately minuet essay
At dead of night, while unseen hands
Their long-forgotten skill display.
The little children-where are theyP
For many must have danced, ! know,
To measures fanciful and gay
From that old spinet, years ago. a
Some cavalier of other lands
To It once sang his roundelay,
Regardless of the reprimands
OF her whose heart he longed TO sway
Or some despairing genius may
Have made it sharer of his woe,
And bowed his weary head to pray
Ger that oldspinet, years ago.
Behold it still resists decay;
There's music in it still, although
The hands are dust that used to play
On that old spinet, years ago.

Occasionally, something turns up to
prove, remarks the Boston Transcript,
that some of our homelier methods in
therapeutics, sold women's remedies, !"
as the doctors sneeringly call them, are
found to be reasonably scientific after
all. Lately, for instance, an expert, who
has been experimenting in NJ. Pasteur's
laboratory, has discovered that no living
disease germ can resist for more than a
few hours the antiseptic power of essence
of cinnamon, which seems to be no less
effective in destroying microbes than is
corrosive sublimate. Its scent will kill
them. A decoction of cinnamon is rec
omended for influenza cases, typhoid
fever aud cholera. Perhaps some Of us
can remember when elderly ladies used
to carry in their wonderful pockets, the
capacity of which was enormous, bits of
cinnamon or other pungent and fragrant
spice, the odor of which would betray
their coming many feet away. Whether
it was carried as a preventive or merely
for the satisfaction of having something
to nibble was not revealed to us youngs.
sters of those days. Peppermint candy
was always recognized stimulant
against attacks of somnolence at sermon

Feeding Vanilla Beans 10 Hens.

A man on Long Island has discovered
way of feeding vanilla beans to his
hens so that the eggs are distinctly
favored with vanilla. The hens, more
over, are so fertile under this diet that
he sends up daily to town twenty-five
dozen eggs. These are engaged to the
full laying capacity of the hens. A
vanilla favored egg at breakfast is the
latest caprice of luxury.-New York

''If it were only over with--or needn t
be at all, /" she reflected. But there was
no way to avoid the unpleasant task
ahead of her, and accordingly Sarah
passed down the stairs and into the
square parlor overlooking the garden.
In about half an hour old Mrs. Thorpe
in her room upstairs heard the front door
close, and quick step go down the
garden pathway. Presently Sarah came
back.
The old lady was popped up in bed
and turned a pair of very bright, clear
eyes upon her niece as she entered the
room.
"Well," Mrs. Thorpe exclaimed with
impatience. "Sit right down and tell
me all about it. And don't oblige me
to ask tco many questions. You know
how hate to have to wiring anything

"Humph, what'd he sayl"
"Said that he would not think of dis
turbing you while you were ill but that
it was very important for him to know
when he could take possession of the
house. He intends putting up the fac
tory at once, he says. He observed that
Mr.. Beecham had explained how fond we
were of the old house and all that, but
of course we could hardly expect him to
be sentimental in business matter"
"Did he talk like that right to your
face, Sarah Molyneux2"
"Yes, Aunt can't say-well it didn't
sound quite so bold; but those were his
words"
"Who does he favor in looks-the
Turner's, guess" Mrs. Thorpe leaned
back and closed her eyes a moment, Wis
ions of the high cheek bones and promi-
nent noses of the Turner's floating before
her. Sarah thought of them too, sharply
in contrast with the looks of her recent
guest.
''He's not a bit like the Turner'S, ~
she said, presently. ~ don't know the
Morisons much" she added. ''Let me
see-he is not very tall-rather slight
but looks strong and has clean-shaVen
