Ida asked, "What is the feeling OF
lover" Answer: Love is a very COM
pick and complicated combination OF
sensations There are more frost and
fever, more bliss and agony, more smiles
and tears and more exhilaration and des
peration to the square inch in love thar
in all the other experiences of the hu-
man family. Philosophers and sages
have tried in vain, ever since the world
began, to find out just exactly what il
is. 1t is altogether likely that Ida could
answer the question quite as well as the
prophets of old. New York Ledger.

Yyhat,s In a Name?

The custom of naming flats after
their builders or owners is a growing
one and sometimes results in a curious
combination. Just below me are two
new flathouses, built last summer. One
was named ALBERT, !" and on the plate
glass front door of the adjoining one
was the word Madeira, F" it having
been built by a patriotic gentleman
who names his fiathouses after various
wines. But the latter was sold to man
named Hawkins, who forthwith put his
own name up So now the combination
is complimentary to the old time and
widely known White House coachman,
ALBERT Hawkins. New FORK Herald.

an effect which, when he recovered his

Haematobia Serrata Has Begun Its Bloody
Ravages Again.
Both the department at Washington
and Professor Smith of the New Jersey
station have made a searching investi-
cation of the horn fly pest.
The name horn fly is given this species
because of the habit Of settling on the
base of the horns when resting When
very numerous, the flies will cover the
base of the horns for several inches sc
completely that they cannot be seen.
This habit is especially noticeable in
the early part of the season. But little
if any injury is done by the fly while

couragement is drawn from the tirmer
market Tor the cheaper grades of
shoes, for drugs at leading centers,
Tor hogs at western markets and for
fruits on the arrival of colder weather.
Another favorable report is the
October bank clcarings. which reflect
enlarged fall trade in a total larger
than tor any month since June. 1893.
The aggregate reported for October,
this year, is $4,22S.2e7.5 go. an increase
over september, 1894. Of II per cent,
AMI over October, last year, of more
than 6.3 per cent. At Chicago excess
slve competition has resulted in fur
ther cuts in lumber prices. Sugar is
. cent lower and Bessemer pig iron
and steel billets are Is to % cents low
er respectively. Cotton has gone Off
another Lie cent. This results in the
restriction in the volume of trade
there. Exports of wheat and flour,
both coasts. amount to 2,934, 900 bush
els, compared with 2,Si0, 900 bushels Il
year ago. SHE total stocks of wheat,

within four months. the heaviest like
increase except in 1872. il being three
times larger than from July ] to
