The difference lies in the matter Of han.
ding. The one grower carefully studies
the markets, grades his fruits, rejects
all the culls or imperfect specimens. and
then packs the fruit in an attractive
manner, while the other simply dumpa
it into boxes, good, bad and indifferent,
all mixed together. 1t Is not surprising

HARD TIMES.

1t is not merely the fact that million
quent loss OF time place and money, that
makes the times seem 80 tough, but there
are other aggrayations superadded, grow
ing out of the wilful neglect of so many,
that make the times seem hard, indeed.
1t better times were at hand and good
places open to all that are now Idle, there
are thousands who would be totally unfit
to go TO work 10y reason of the neglect OF
some inhrmitv which totally units them
10 accept a prohered chance. What better
opportunity could there be to get their
physical condition in good shape than the
enforced ldIeness gives them. To do so IS
making profit out of misfortune; not to do
so is making hard times so much harder.
Ii Is poor logic to make anything bad grow
worse, and ii Is no economy at all to save
expense by sacrificing health. A man
wants Drawn, muscle and brain in as near
ly perfect condition as is possible to gam
victory in the battle of life. 1t Is mostly
from a beginning in little things that the
greater ones accumulate and finally over
whelm us. There is hardly one man who
labors with his muscles from the skilled
mechanic down to those who labor with
the pick and shovel but has some bodily
ailment neglected. What costly trihing it
Is, looked at from results. For example:
the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons and
muscles are all under constant strain from
the nature and demands of their work.
Aches and pains must ensue. These, neg
lected, soon reach the chronic stage of
stit1ened limbs from contracted muscles.
How many old mechanics have bent backs
and baCkaChes we know This is simply a
condition of neglected lumbago, which had
1t been treated in time could have been
cured in ten minutes by st. Jacobs on.
This is also true of all the minor aches and
pains. SO certain a cure ought certainly to
be in every workingman's house to make
hard times lighter.

"Please Wine Your Feet. "

Please wipe your feet! This is the leg
end that good health and manners re-
uuire should be written on the entrance
of public or private buildings Awful
is the condition of our streets, and more
awful in the eyes of good housekeepers
is the nastineSs brought into the dwell
ing, be it rich or poor, on the feet OF
those who walk them. How vile this
composite is can only be appreciated by
those who try to clean it from the car
pets and to keep the house free from its
impure consequences. Health demands
extra care in a matter that is regarded
as trivial in dry seasons. but the lnJunc-
ton to wipe the feet on door mat is one
to be inculcated early III life.
Careless children make careless adults,
and it is these bemuddied persons who
might practice that law of the Moham-
medan, which commands men to remove
their slippers on entering the mosque or
a house where there are lives to be re-
spected, with excellent results. In some
carpeted hotels the floors are covered
with CLOTH but in private houses this
protection is not possible, and the house

Senator Hill is seldom accused of ro-
mantle tendencies, but judged by the
story of mark he bears the New York
statesman has wide streak Of chiyalry
when it is once reached Mr.. Hill has
on the left side of his face, close under
his ear, a long, narrow scar. In some
lights it is quite plain, then again it is
hardly to be seen. When its owner was an
up country lawyer, he had to prosecute a
well known man in the same town who
dissipated the fortune of his ward and
had in addition inflicted other wrongs
upon the girl When the case reached
Mr.. Hills attention, it aroused his wrath
as we'll as his professional zeal. During
the trial he scored the offender most un-
mercifully and after an especially scath-
ing speech went to his Office. The en-
ragged offender followed him, entered the
Office and before the lawyer could even
turn had slashed him vigorously with a
knife, making the scar, which the sena-
tor will carry to his grave. Kate Fields

The Yellowstone Park Earthquakes.

A letter received from party of tour
lists who have winter camp in the Ma
tional park gives particulars of the earth
quakes which were reported week ago
from Livingston, Mon.
This letter is by way of Beaver can
Won, Ida, and says that for the last two
weeks the subterranean noises have been
distinct. and there have been nearly ev-
eryday eruptions in different parts of the
park near the Giant and Giantess gey-
sers. also near the Great Castle geyser
There have been openings in the earth
through which came clouds OF steam or
smoke. it was hard to tell which. When
these eruptions commenced, cattle ana
horses of the vicinity showed great I'M
easiness and would go wandering about
with the evident idea of escape from the
neighborhood.
The few people who were there were
at first badly scared, but finally made
uD their minds that it was nothing more
than an aggravated explosion from the
shooting geyser However. the openings
in the earth were something entirely
new and indicated that the shock expert
enced was of earthquake origin. Some
times there would be rumbling sounds
and Earring of the earth for fully ~ sec
onds before the explosion came, ana ina
exnlosiors were sufficiently strong to
percepdbly jar the cooking utensils
about the camp. Cor. Chicago Tribune.

Every man ought to have one, but long
step toward that is the possession of ALL
COCKS Porous PLAsTERs. 1t is certain that
they prolong life by relieving the strain
that comes from continued suffering.
Many man can endure . sharp disease
better than he can the wear and tear OF
pains, little in themselves, yet constant in
their strain upon the system.
A weak back stiffness OF the joints, sore
ness of the muscles seem to many I'M
worthy of special notice. Yet they do not
little to exhaust the powers of physical
endurance. ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs
relieve them at once, and no wise man will
