AN AvENeER OF WRONGS.

How the Solicitor General Is Looked
Upon by Many of the Ignorant Glass.
The lot of a solicitor general of the state
court in large city is not altogether as
easy and pleasant as many suppose it to
be. Compared with some things with
which he has to deal, the prosecution of
criminal case before court or jury is a
very simple and easy task.
But it is in the numerous petty annoy
ances to which the solicitor is constantly
subjected that are the bane of his life
and they would cause an ordinary man to
forget the Sabbath day. The solicitor is
never free from these worrysome annoy
ances until he is beyond the limits OF his
own circuit, safe in the bounds of some
other state. But even while surrounded
by the Injuries of some summer resort
TO which solicitor general occasionally
goes TO think over the past aud forget
there is a future, he is not
entirely free from danger A stream Of
letters and communications about crimi-
nal business Of all kinds pours in upon
him from one source and another until no

dies in service to continue his pay TO his

whatever in the mind of the jury, and a

HE WANTED KICKING.
At Last He Set Off to Get Run Owe

At Last He Set Off to Get Run Over.
 It was evident that something had gone wrong with an oldish man who came in on Lake Shore train from Toledo yesterday. He looked all around the depot until he found po- liceman and then began to unburden himself by saying:
 q want you to look at this Canadian ten dollar bill."
 "Yes, sir" replied the officer as he reached for it. T don't see much Ca nadian money, but shouldn't care to take this bill for good one. Have you asked any one about it?"
 "The conductor said it was bad"
 "Lets see the ticket agent.",
 They walked over to the window, to be told that it was not even a good counterfeit, and the officer asked of the stranger
 Did you take it for good money?"
 Say! How easy it is for man to make a fool of himselfw exclaimed the other. "I thought I knew enough to fall off fence when the top rail broke, but I don't! I haven't got the sense of a barn door. I ought to be sent to an idiot asylum for term of five yearsw
 "How did it happen?' queried the officer.
 "A chap came into my car and asked me if I could give him change for a five dollar bill. That Is the bill.
 "He had on goggles and seemed to h,,vo sora AS,oS and foolr r. $Iot ho thought the ten was g. five"
 "Chance to make five dollarsw laughed the officer.
 "Of course. I am an honest man, but I couldn't let that chance slip. I counted him out five ones in greenbacks and put this in my pocket. After he got off at Wyandotte began to be sus- picious and showed the bill to the con- ductor. Ever hear of the trick before?"
 About a hundred times"
 "And I've been takin' a daily newspa- per for fifteen years and am accounted the sharpest man on freaks in our town! Went right at 1t and beat my self with my eyes wide open. Say have you got machine around here?"
 "What sort of a machine?"
 "A kicking machine-one that runs by steam-two thousand horse power kicks thousand times a minute-lifts a blamed fool twenty feet high at every ,kick!''

Ooethe's Visit to Carlsbad. '

There is no doubt that the life of the great poet was greatly prolonged by drinking the waters of the Sprudel Spring. In our day we have the Sprudel Spring brought to us in the form of Salt, which is obtained by evap. oration from the waters of Carls- bad.
 The Carlsbad Sprude1 Salt (powder form) is in no sense a mere purgative, but is an altera- tive and eliminative remedy which dissolves tenacious bile, allays irritation and removes ob. struction by aiding nature. It scts soothingiy and without pain. Beware of limitations. The gen. uine article has the signature of "EIsNER & HENDERSON Co.,, Sole Agents, New York;" on every bottle.
