A New York artist whose home
is in a village an hours ride from
the metropolis promised to do some
shopping for his wife. Upon arriv-
ing at his studio he found that he
had money enough in his pocket
for his lunch and no more. What
to do about the shopping? Suddenly
he bethought himself of an order
for an illustration that he had re-
ceived from magazine. He set to
work and in less than two hours
had finished the drawing, collected
$50 for it at the publishers office,
and had started on the more ex-
hausting labor Of shopping.
o6iaago. sstasdSy, Miss Ada
Rehan was reproduced in silver.
Sixteen hundred pounds of sterling
Montana silver were poured into a
mould made of French clay, which
had been hardened by slow drying
and baking. The statue is modelled
so as to reproduce exactly Miss Re-
hans form and features. 1t is 5
feet 10 inches high and costs $7C,-
900. AS it is to symbolize Justice,
a sword will be put in one hand
and the scales in the other. 1t will
stand on silver globe two feet in
diameter. The statue is said to be
as pretty as Miss Rehan and worth
IA good deal less.

Three days is q very short time
in which to cure bad case of rheu-
matism; but it can be done, if the
proper treatment is adopted, as will
be seen by the following from James
Lambert, of New Brunswick, Ills:
81 was badly afflicted with rheuma-
tism in the hips and legs, when /
bought bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. 1t cured me IN three
days. l am all right to-day; and
would insist on every one who is
afflicted with that terrible disease
to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and get well at once" SO cent bot

MIR. Simon Nicolaides kept a
bric-a-brac store on f street, Wash
ington. lie also kept fascinating

and the clerk is gone. Mrs. Nico-
ladies did not seem to like the way
Simon managed business and took
onwith the youthful fascinator, and
she went into the store on Friday
last and made d smash of things
generally. The proverbial bull
could not have made more com
plete wreck of Simon's bric-a- brac
than did the irate wife. The store
was then closed for repairs, and it
is supposed that the wrath Of Mrs.
Nicolaides is appeased.
What lawyers don't know about
law would frequently fill library.
Now there is the Washington county
school muddle, for instance. The
old board of school commissioners
refused to give up their places to
the new board, and the result was a
series of lawsuits to determine which
board was rightfully entitled to re-
cognition as the rightful board.
The case finally went to the Court
of Appeals, and after nearly six
months of legal quibbling the higher
court decides that it cannot decide
the vital question at issue because
the lawyers in the case did not know
enough to properly present the case
for the consideration of the court.
