The Worlds Fair!

Take it all in all the world is fair. That
is, its judgments are pretty generally just,
No doubt it has formed many incorrect con-
illusions from the time the caravels of Co.
lumbus appeared off the shores of San Sal
vador to the present year of celebration. but
there are instances of its fairness which can
be cited unquestioned. 1t has, after COM
parative tests, given it's award to Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters for efficacy in cases of ma
larial, rheumatic and kidney disorder dys-
pepsia, liver complaint, stipation, nerv-
BUSINESS and debility. Among positive
facts without any doubt this verdict de-
serves a prominent place. The experience
of generation justifes, and the concurrent
testimony of hosts of eminent physicians,
bear out its truth. Give the Bitters fair
trial and verify it.

An Opera Managers Troubles.


A few years ago Sydney Resented,
the opera manager, became entangled
in Milwaukee in what then seemed to
be an endless litigation over 'The Black
Hussar" which he attempted to pro-
duce at the old Opera House. Since
that time he has had more or less
trouble in everything he has attempted
to produce. His last venture, "The
Rainmaker of SYRIA" has proven fail
ure financially in New York, and he is
involved with his company, his cos
tuners and his various other creditors.
The company is Oh a strike for wages.
The chorus girls attempted to chastise
him in the dressing rooms under the
stage. He fled, and in the theater lobby
met Charles Hopper, the comedian, who
used the manager for a punChing-bag.
Resented fled to the dressing rooms.
There he found that even another mis-
fortune was awaiting him. Nine. Clara

ODD FREAK OF A MILLIONAIRE.

Disguised in Old Clothes He Played
Hand Organ for His Neighbors.
David IL. Llchtensteln, a millionaire
dry goods man Of New York, owns q
summer cottage at Wave Crest, Long
Island, and while stopping there last
season happened to see an Italian organ
grinder one day. An idea occurred to
Mr.. Lichtenstein. He hunted up the
Italian and paid him $40 for the loan of
his organ. He then went to his room
and donned a suit of old clothes and q
iilapidated hat. He sailed forth with
his organ and began playing in front Of
the residences of his friends, one after
another. At the first place he went
through the whole repertoire, but
without receiving any contribution.
Then he started CATER the
Ball." and played it three
out the servant girl in hurry. She
threw a penny in the box and begged
him to go away. Mr.. Lichtenstein
stopped in front of the next house, but
they had heard all they wanted and
gave him cent before he could grind
out the first selection. At his next
stop he played until he thought his arm
would fall off, but he got nothing. He
skipped a whole block and had just got
ready to turn the crank at another
corner when a party of four ladies came
along, with each of whom Mr.. Iichten-
stein was intimately acquainted. His
heart sank into his silk stockings and
he was fearful of being recognized. 1t
was too late to run, SO he put on bold
front, and after rendering "Ma1guer
ite, ;" he held his hat out so prominently
as to almost obstruct their progress.
Gracious, how persistent exclaimed
one of the ladies. Poor fellow, l sup
pose he's hungry" and she dropped
five cents in the tin cup.
Mr.. Lichtenstein was about to con-
graduate himself on his escape when, to
his horror, a fat dog which belonged to
the party, and which he had fed with
many lump of sugar, rushed up TO him
and wagged bis tail in joyful recognition,
showing that dogs are wiser than man
kind in that they do not judge people
by the clothes they wear. Mr.. Lichten
stein scowled and the dog looked sur
prised and ran away. Mr.. Lichtenstein
played in front of four other houses
without getting cent and was twice in
suited. He was now getting bolder.
He planted himself in front of his own
house. Seated in front of the cottage
were two ladies of the house and several
little children. The children were
delighted to see him and enjoyed his
selections more than the old folks did.
When he played con the BoWery" one
of the little girls clapped her hands
with delight and rushing into the house
cried Uncle Dave, Uncle Pave, the
mans playing con the Bowery."'
This is one of Mr.. Lichtenstein's favor
lite airs, and the child was disappointed
on not finding him in the house. That
was glory enough, and Mr.. Lichten-
stein shouldered his organ and stole
away to a photograph gallery, where he
had his picture taken. He said nothing
dinner with him that evening, and at
the table he let the cat out of the bag.
At first they refused to believe him, but
he produced his photograph and the
clSe WAS cNmnlete.

WHY HE WEARS THE RING.
Comedian Charles Evans Has q Tails
man That Insuras luck.


man That Insures Luck.
Charlie Evans, who plays l. Nc Corker
in GA Parlor Match" wears a narrow
band ring on his left thumb. The in
trinsic value of the little thread of gold
is probably not over So or So, but it is
doubtful if the owner would part with
the trife for twenty times that sum.
Mr.. Evans is not SuperstitiOus, but like
a great many other people who are not
at all given to superstitiors he will not
take any chances on losing his luck; and
if the ring has not brought good luck to
the comedian it has certainly witnessed
a remarkable streak of good fortune
since the day it was placed on his hand.
1t seems that dozen years ago Evans
was III a little town IN Colorado, and
while there rescued an aged woman
from the brutal attack of a drunken
ruffian who called himself her husband.
Evans learned that the woman was pen
niless and hungry. He saw that she
had comfortable clothing and an
abundance of food and left her with
money to provide for her wants
he left the town the old
woman forced him to accept
q worn gold ring, not because of it's
value but as testimonial Of her graft
tude. The ring was too large for his
fingers and he slipped it on his thumb.
Within an hour he had position OF
fered to him with company at double
the salary he had been getting. A
Thort time after that he met other good
fortunes. Then came his own good
company; he was successful IN that.
CA Parlor Match" came next; it was a
winner. He took the ring off, and BUSH
ness was poor; he put the ring back on
his thumb, and the standing room
only" sign was out. And SO he came
to believe that the little gold ring was
SYNONYMOUS with good luck. 4 month
ago he lost the ring, and two days
later he was attacked by sciatica. So
severe became the attack that he
planned to abandon the stage for year
or two. In the meantime he had of
fered $50 and finally 500 for the return
of the ring, and an item in a Mime
apolis paper says the talisman has been
res tored to him, and he is again happy.

He Had Heard 1t Before.

"Where am | at" is question which
f1ourishes at the fair, for however we'll
acquainted the visitor may think he is
from his studies of pictures of the
buildings, he is unequal to their COM
prehension when he mingles with them,
and he gets lost as easily as a country
couple in town for the circus.
The Columbian Guard is everywhere,
though, and the Columbian Guard, next
after the fair itself, is the king bee of
the combination. He is present help
position is divine. You can't ask him a
question he will not answer, and you
can't ruff1e his temper any more than
YOU can the bosom of a hard-boiled
shirt That's what he is there for, and
he fills the bill from margin to margin.
He is the angel of the White City, and
if he hasn't wings, it is only because
that sword he wears might get tangled
up in the feathers thereof.
Said | one day in a reflective mood to
a guard:
on earth is equal to it, but it seems such
a pity that it is all temporary and must
so soon be destroyed"
He took out book and made brief
note.
''I beg your pardon" he said, putting
the book back in his pocket; ~ was
merely noting your remark. That
makes the two millioneth time I have
heard that said, and each of the guards
can show a record equal or better than
mine. Yet, as you say, it is pity that
it must so soon be destroyed"
He sighed and sighed.
THAT makes it the two million and
oneth time that has been said" [ re-
marked: why don't you put it down in
your book ?"
Excuse me- he said politely, and
made a note of it-Det"0it Free Press.
