Evil Com IS of a Good Thing.

The lemon, generally speaking, is I'M
doubleday promoter of health harmony
and good fellowship. A dash of lemon in
the right place invariably adds zest to
social intercourse, and the number of
friendships that have been formed, re-
newed and cemeuted during the chewing
of diamond of lemon peel absolutely de-
fies computation. The lemon is a marker
of civilization-savages do not squeeze
lemon juice on their oysters-and a pro-
mo.er of digestion. Yet, like a great
many other things that are good for man,
and are irreproachable in character, the
lemon is capable of being perverted in
manner to arouse all there is warlike in a
fellow who was out with the boys last
night"
A case in point occurred at Williams
burg, n. Y, few days ago A brass
band was playing DAISY Bell" in a most
sentimental strain, Notwithstanding the
leader had been on previous toot of a
different character, the effect of which in
a most prosaic manner was at that mo-
ment parching his throat Just as vari-
Gus horns were about to elevate Daisy to
the seat Of the bicycle built for two a
man sucking lemon came and stopped
directly in front of the leader. He pulled
at his lemon with such vigor, and with
such visible and intense acid enjoyment.
that it paralyzed the band leader, and
Daisy Bell was left, like an improved
Mohammed's coffin, suspended between
the earth and the front seat of the bike.
In short, the leaders, salivary glands in
sympathy with those of the lemon sucker.
flooded his mouth and he had to quit
playing.
The disturbing man with the fascinat-
ing lemon was requested to move on
And he did So and Daisy Bell was once
more fundamentally importuned to take
arfront seat. But before she got there
the man with the lemon again appeared
again took a stand whore the leader coald
not help seeing him, and again went
through series of acid-induced grimaces
that upset the hornblower worse than
the Senate ever upset a Hornblower.
This time the man with the horn got mad
The sight of that fellow sucking that
lemon, when his own palate was craving
lemon juice above all things else
was more than he could stand. So
he ''lit in on his tormentor and
wore him to a frazzle, without
even serving notice that he was coming or
setting forth his grievances. Wnen the
police came upon the scene they arrested
the mar with the lemon, and let the other
so, and when the police justice heard the
story he imposed a fine upon the dis
turber of Daisy Bell, Notwithstanding his
| assurance upon honor that he was suck
ing the lemon for a cold and not will
malice prepense.

A Populist Plank Knocked Out.

That plank in the populist platform
which calls for government ownership of
railroads is not quite as popular as it
was year or sol ago In view of
the fact that railroad employees are in
clined to the belief that they wouldn't
have very much of picnic if the gov
ernment'owned the railroads the populists
are rather disposed if reports are to be
credited, to quietly drop the ra ilroad
plank from their platform.
The recent orders of the federal courts,
relative to the right of employees of the
Northern Pacific and Union Pacific rail-
roads to strike because of a reduction of
wages, have had the effect of making
railroad employees hesitate to give their
support to the populist scheme Of govern
ment ownership of railroads. These roads
are in the hands Of receivers
and are therefore virtually controlled by
the government, and the control that h as
been exercised thus far has not been of
such a character as to make railroad en-
ployes think their material condition
would be better if the populist doctrine
as to railroads should prevail
IL Is QuIJe certain JuuL railroad emplOVe
would not be any more tenderly cared for
if the roads were owned and operated by
the government than they are at present.
Indeed, it is doubtful if they would be
| dealt with as literally. Wages would be
no better, if as good. Government EN-.
ployes are not now paid as literally as
the employees of corporations aud individ-
uals. 1t is true they may not hive SC
much to do, but what railroad employees
want is better pay and not less work.
One by one the populist doctrines disap-
pear. The alliance, which preceded the
populist party, was bent on having gov
| eminent warehouses for crops of all kinds,
! and it was proposed that the government
should loan money upon tine crops to the
! extent of so per cent. of their value.
Nothing is heard of the warehouse scheme
nowadays. Then it was proposed that
! the government should loan money to
whoever wanted it at the rate of ? per
| cent. per annum. Nobody talks about
that now, and it is doubtful if anything
/ will be said about government ownership
! of railroads in the next national platform
! Of the populist party. But it is not
| certain that there will be another ma.
| tional populist platform. Populist doc.
| trines are losing ground so steadily that
/ there is likely to be no populist party in
| lSg6

At the Popcorn stand.

A brisk little man walked up to the stand
OF street popcorn vender and looked over
his stock carefully. says the Buffalo Express.

The brisk little man took up big handful
and began eating it. DO you know, he said,
that popcorn is an almost invaluable medl'
clnal agent IN many cases Now, for instance,
II when man has fooHshly been out and
caroused around. drinking all manner OF
liquors and doing things which he should not,
ne Will eat ag Of popcorn, he will be sur
prised to ind how much good 1t will do him,
Then, again, in cases Of dyspepsia and like
ailments, popcorn acts with remarkable and
soothing efect on the tortured stomach, It is
good in cases Of blood disease, cooling the
oVerheated blood. There are numerous other
malacies for which popcorn is almost a
Speclhc. 1t has many virtues. No person
who hasn't made study OF the matter has
any Idea OF what popcorn viii do
All this time the risk little man had teen
eating voraciously OF the popcorn. Then he
took two great handfGls and slowed them
away In his overcoat pocket, picked up a
couple Of bags ans started to walk away
Here shouted the popcorn man, where
do l come in:''

tie man.
Il mean want my pay for that there pop

The brisk little man looked astonished. He
stopped snort and turned hercely on the pop
corn man.
DO you mean to say that you have the
assurance to ask me for money for this pop
corn -
that's what do" replied the popcorn
man d)Fgedly.
But think Of the valuable information
gave you for nothing. Why, my dear sir,

insisted; Il can support my family with in
