who had called to see her. The youth

with friend to the girls house. He

armchair, and, as was his habit, on
began to nervousfy poke his fingers
into cracks aud holes of the ornamen-

his finger into a hole in this
manner, but found to his dismay that
his knuckle positively refused to come

finger the harder 1t was, as the finger
became swollen.
The youth was too bashful to men

which he had gotten himself, but
manfully bore the pain in silence He
suffered untold agony for fear his
friend would go before he released
his finger. Finally the hostess noticed
his apparent uneasiness- The youth
with many bushes then told the
cause. 1t was not until half an hour
later that the bashful youth and tho
chair parted company. The butler
finally succeeded in releasing the fln-

Let those who are haunted witA

short story told by the late Sir Andrew
Clark in the course of a clinical lecture
at the London hospital.

Of the necessity for caution in the
''prognosis," or forecast of the pro-
yressso of this disease, Sir Andrew went

him and said, You sec you have got
no money, sir; you must go and get
your life insured" At the end of the
medical examination the physicians
said to him: 1--WE cannot accept you"
"Why?" asked the astonished house
governor. ''Oh, we would rather not

physicians, "if you will have it you

He went home and the match was
broken off. He wrote to the commit
tee saying that as he had mortal dis
case of the heart. and could not live
for six months, he withdrew his appli-
cation for rooms wherein to dwell
with his wife. On the receipt of this
letter the committee deliberated, and
said: 1--WE must superannuate him,
poor fellow; and, as he has but six
months to live, we will let him have
his full pay" Accordingly he was SUI

upon this superannuity, said Sir An

tie governments pawnbroking venture
was to be obtained unless he intended
to imply 1t could be confiscated from
the rich. In this connection, he COM
mended the benign and progressive gov
ernment of enlightened Russia as an
example to be followed. He contended
that the effect Of the governments ap-
pearance in the role Of money lender
would naturally tend to depreciate the
rate Of interest, but he said nothing Of
the thrifty habit OF money borrowing,
and the extension of the hopeful and
inspiriting farm mortgage that might
be by that means also promoted. He
made the intensely patriotic and vera
cious statement that the census reports
show that 90 per cent of the people Of
this country are dependent upon the
public charity Of the remaining 10 per
cent, and then the governor wound up
this last installment of his agreeable
and attractive method Of advertising
himself and his state with the asserva-
ton that his frst-i e., his famous let
ter to Mr.. Cleveland-was one Of the
most conscientious acts OF his whole

Senator Sherman has written a let
ter to Hon. Il. G. Rathbone, the Repub-
lican candidate for congress in the Ohio
district formerly represented by the late
Hon. George w. Houk, saying:
II feel the deepest interest in your
success partly from my personal desire
for your election, but chiefly because
your election would be an indication Of
the public sentiment in your district
on the great question of protection of
American industries No reasonable
man can doubt that the passage of the
pending bill will deepen and intesify the
existing disturbance of domestic indus
tries in our country. The radical change
proposed will necessarily provoke a
struggle between capital and labor. II
will cause the reduction of wages and
the crlppling, and in some cases the de-
struction, of industries that have been
greatly advanced by the Mckinley tariff
act
"The pending bill is purely a sectional
measure, framed by three of four sena-
tors, all OF whom represent states that
have but little or no interest in manu-
factures. They have, to some extent
protected their local industries but are
absolutely Indifferent to all employ
ments but those of their respective
states.
Already, in fear OF the effects of this
measure, thousands of workingmen are
thrown out of employment and Ameri-
can productions enormously reduced
The measure as It now stands is revolu-
ticnary."
The senator adds:
ia is marvel that in u district SO
largely interested in varied employ
ments there should be any doubt as to
the result"
The district has always been Demo
cratic, until 1t was carried by Mckinley
last time by majority of 500.
