NOT so BRIGHT AFTER ALL.

The fat man entered a Broadway
car on rainy day, beaming as usual.
The seats were nearly filled, and when
he sat down he spread discomfort on
both sides of him, but he still beamed.
Suddenly an idea struck him.
"Ah, a good trick" he said, beaming
at the young man beside him and
arising. He placed his dripping UNI
brella behind his seat in the space in
to which the widow is lowered.
you see it's out the way and does
not get you wet" he went on, half
soliloquizing and half addressing the
young man.
When Twenty-seventh street was
reached the fat man got out, forget
ting his umbrella. The rain had
stopped and he was not reminded of
his loss. When he got home his wife
greeted him with: ''Of course you
have lost your umbrella again 1 told
you you would this morning"
The man studied awhile, and then
it occurred to him that his idea of
slowing the umbrella in the car wasn't
SO brilliant after all.

LOVE IN COTTAGE.

Love in cottage. How sweet that
sounds! When we think of it we see
cosy little dining table, seated before
which are the young compile. She
engineers the tea and coffee pot, while
he in a manly way yields the carving
knife. Have they ever quarreled?
No, for they have only been home
from their wedding tour a few short
blissful days.
Will they quarrel?
S-h! Yes in few moments A
fresh clean spread has been placed
upon the table, and in moment she
will discover the gravy that he has
carelessly spilled upon it. Then the
music will begin and the quarrel will
be just as warm as if they resided in a
great big house.
And will she go home to her ma?
Oh, no, they have not been married
long enough for that They will soon
get over their quarrel, kiss and make
up, and then live in bliss till another
fresh cloth has been likewise soiled.-

Listener in the Boston Transcript:
The true philosophy, the best wisdom
of the whole America discovering bust
ness, was never better expressed than
it was by an old Irishman whom the
Listener once heard talking to another
and younger Irishman The younger
man was pretending that it was really
the Irish who first discovered America
and was about to prove it with many
learned illusions when the old man
broke in:
Il don't know, Pat if the Oirish
first dishkivered; but begorra, they
dishkivered itr'
1t isn't of SO much consequence to
us who first discovered itas that some
body subsequently discovered it who
had the sense to make some use of it.

Il have seen a great MANY killed. .

Il have seen great many killed"
said an old soldier the other day. Il
have seen commanding officers torn
to pieces with shell, and beardless
boys dead ON the battlefield with their
mothers picture pressed to their cold
lips, but / never had anything to
affect me like the death of a couple
of young railroad men In Texas seven
or eight years ago. l was riding on
the engine of fast passenger train,
and at Waco the engineer got orders
to look out for brakeman who was
missing from the freight we were
following. He was supposed to have
fallen between the cars of his train.
my brother is breaking on that train;
I wonder if it can be him7 said the
fireman. Ell keep up steam while
you stand on the pilot and watch out.
replied the engineer.
THE fireman took his post In front
and we pulled out We had just got
ten well under way when the fireman
gave the signal TO stop. The engineer
applied the air-brakes. They failed
to respond as we were on the down
grade and could not stop. The miss
ing breakman was lying on the track,
badly mangled, but conscious. He
raised his hands and frantically sig
nailed the train, bat the great iron
machine went plunging down upon
him at the rate of twenty miles an
hour. The fireman cast one desperate
look at the engineer, than sprang in
front of the pilot and hurled his
wounded brother off the track. But
he was not quick enough to save him
self The engine caught him and
crushed both legs off at the hips. AS
we picked him up he said, with a
quiet smile. It's no use, boys; I'm
done for. But I saved Ned
"We laid them down in the baggage
car side by side. Ned put out a
feeble hand and clasped that of his
brother I've got my time, old fell
low he said Here, too, Ned; we'll
make the run to the next world to-
gether,' was the response, and hold
ing each other by the hand they died
together without another word"

BEATEN ON A TEoHNIcAL1TY.- wo
man sat on bench in Madison square
the other afternoon holding a small
dog in her lap. A policeman passed
that way and said:
Madame, dogs are not allowed in
here"
"Since when?" she asked.
''Since that sign was put up, and
that's years ago"
"What does that sign read?"
dogs not allowed at large in this
park"
''But my dog is not at large"
But he is, ma'am. He has no

But he is tied," she replied as she
twisted her handkerchief and looped
it over his neck.
The usual sad expression on the
officers face was visibly increased as
he resumed his walk.

A man with box on his shoulder
was making his way along Chambers
street the other day, when it fell to the
walk. After two or three efforts to re-
place it, he appealed to man in a
doorway with:
Give me lift please?"
Cant do i" was the prompt reply.
'And why not?"
Because | never mix business. I
am a plumber and the man next door
IS in the elevator business. Its for

The man with the box thought for
a moment, grinned in a good natured
way. and by an extra grunt re should
cred the box and passed on.

Have you humors causing blotches?
Does your blood run thick and sluggish?
Are you drowsy, dull and languid?

Is your tongue all furred and coated?
Is your sleep with bad dreams broken?
Do you feel downhearted, dismal,
Dreading something, what you know not?
Then be very sure you're bilious
That you have torpid liver.
and what you need is something to
rouse it and make it active enough to
throw off the impurities that clog it;
something to invigorate the debil-
itated system, and help all the organs
to perform the duties expected of
them, promptly and theoretically.
