Physicians and druggists have many
! laugh over the credulity and freshness oi
come of Us ordinary mortals, SO a good
j Ike on the leading druggists of Butler,
/ will probably be appreciated. A tonic
prescribed by one of Allegheny's doctor:
contained a certain quantity of "Aqus
| Bulliens" and the first drug store in But
/ Ter the prescription was taken to Ws'
1 utterly out of the drug. The clerk did moi
s,y that ha had never heard of 1t but such
WAS the fact. 4 trial at several oth-t
| druggists convinced the sick man thai
either his ph, sicisn WAS at fault or there
was some stupidity in the business IN But
Ter. Finally he took it to the last drug
gist in town and a young clerk who Ws'
sweeping out said "oh, that's nothing but
boiling water, ~e can pnt that up all right.
T
In the character of sn all sruund guide
couu seller and friend it might be IN order

Made Exiles by n Humorist.

MT. and Mrs. George ". Bowser left Wichita, Kan, recently for a visit to their old homo in Michigan. Mr. Bow ser has lived there for ten years, being driven into exile, as it were, by M Quad, they being the subjects of his humorous sketches on Mir and Mrs. Bowser. They were at 8 summer resort in Michigan and stopped at the same hotel with NJ. Quad when he conceived the Bowser stories. The notoriety given them drove them to Kansas, as MT. Bowser could not stand the jokes of his friends. For years Wichita did not rec ognize them as the original of M. Quad s stories, but reporter discovered it accidentally last year, and ever since MT.

A Beerometer.

There Is progress everywhere. In southern Germany, where incredible quantities of beer are drunk daily, and where the steady customers sit for hours at table, drinking glass after glass. mug after mug, filled by buxom maids, some genius has introduced the beerometer ' attached to the bottom of the drinking vessel-a numbered dial with one hand. With each glassful or mugful which the drinker receives the hand is advanced one number. As the hand cannot be moved backward, the "beerometer ex- ercises perfect control-to the saloon keeper satisfaction at least.

IsMlss HARRADEN's PROFITS.
She Says She Received Only @650 For 'sships That Pass In the Night"

 She Says She Received Only s650 For
 ''ships That Pass In the Night" To the Editor of the New York sun:
 SIR-My attention has just been called to paragraph quoted in the San Francisco Argonaut from all article pub lished in the New York Sun It runs thus:
 ''The Harpers are said to have sent a handsome honorarium to Du Maurier, and Beatrice Hrraden s American pub fisher sent her an honorarium of $500, after which she complained because more was not sent. ''
 This is a misstatement. l have never received $500 from an American pub fisher for Ships That Pass In the Night. '" One hundred and fifty dollars is all that I have had from beginning to end in America, and that was merely given me in order to secure my volume of short stories. It was not, therefore, an honorarium at all, but q business ar rangement
 In England I have received e100 for Ships That Pass Ill the Night. U So that the colossal sum of 9130 represents my share of the profits of this little book in Great Britain, the United States, the British colonies and the continent of Europe. 1 am sure that in justice to my self you will do me the favor of pnb- fishing these few lines Yours truly,

The Importance ef tho Great Corn Crop
 of 1895.

The Importance ef tho Great Corn trop
 of 1895.
 From a speculative standpoint the great corn crop of 1895 is full of sig nifcance. It tmeans, as nothing else does, prosperity for tho railroads, and more particularly for those roads which will have the initial haul of it and it's prod uets. The corn crop promises to be the largest on record.
 The estimated yield is 2,350, 600, 900 bushels. There has been no crop ap- preaching the present one in extent since 1891, when the production was 2, ,06O,- 154, GOO bushels The crops iii the inter vening years were 1928, 464, GOO bush els in 1899, 1,619, 496, GOO ill 1893 and 1,a12, ITO, 900 i'll 1894.
 Calculating that farmers will receive 30 cents a bushe1 for their corn, or an equivalent sum for the cattle and hogs which are fattened on it. the value to them of the crop of 1895 foots up the vast figure of $705, ,000, coo.
 Reckoning the population of the Unit ed States at TO, ,000, 900, the value of the corn crop before leaving the farmer s hands is equal to $10 for every inhabit- ant of the country. Allowing four per sons to a family, the value is equal to $40 for each family.
 The railroads will receive an average of about 20 cents Q busheI for trans porting the corn or the equivalent of that sum for carrying the products of corn, and their revenue from the crop of 1895 will therefore be $470, 1000, 900.
 Figuring the cost of handling the crop at TO per cent of the rates charged, the net income of the roads from it will be $14I ,000, GOO, which is equal to 5 per cent on stock and bonded indebt- edness of g, 820, 600, o00.-New York Journal.

Each Second Worth S62o.

It has been estimated that over the distance tie Defender and Valkyrie III will sail in the cup races the Defender could beat the Vigilant eight minutes. This is 480 seconds. The building and handling Of the Defender will represent when the season is over an outlay of about $500, ,000 Thus each second of time that Defender can beat Vigilant has been paid for at the rate of $620. Truly, time is getting to be exceedingly valuable. After the international race, if Defender were put upon the market, she might bring $20, 900. If she should lose the great race, she wouldn' t bring half that sum- But yachting is a glori- ous sport and the kings and princes of the universe have never yet been able to own yacht that could sail with those of Yankee construction.

TIE press of Arkansas, is appar- ently very unappreciatiye and dis courteous. Recently the editor of the Press Eagle, of this city, sent copies of his paper to the various publications throughout. the State with the slanderous, crafty and cowardly article about the editor of the GRAPHIC marked. For some req. son this courtesy was not appreci- ated by the State press, and where. ever any comment at all was made on this action, the Press E'agie was re- proved. It appears that the willy tricks and venomous nature of the -Press-Eogle editor are too wei known throughout Arkansas for his malignant writings to have any iniu rious effect.

Drowned at Grandfather.

Merrill News: Last Thursday morn
ing w. J. Burns, or Billy Burns as he
was Familiarity called, went with crew
of men up to Grandfather Falls to aid
in breaking a jam which had formed
there. Friday evening, about six
O'Clock, while the men were busily en-
gagged at work part of the jam went out.
Billy with an assistant was working at
the head of the jam when this occurred.
Each man, of course only looked out
for himself as he was obliged to do in
the case, and not until the men got out
of danger did they realize that one of
their number was behind. When they
looked back they saw their friend cling
ing to a couple of logs between which
he was being rapidly carried down
stream. Soon, as he came into stiller
water, he started to swim for the shore
| but soon sank to rise no more. His
brother, Edward Burns, had run to the
| tail of the jam and along the shore to
| help him but owing to the rough shore
could not get near him before he sank.
The drowned man was about sixty feet
or so from shore when he went down.
1t is thought that he must have been
injured in some way else he could have
got out, heavily dressed and tired as he
must have been, as be was very active
man and good swimmer.
The deceased was twenty-eight years
of age and had worked on the Wiscon-
sin river and in the woods ever since
he was a boy. He was young man of
many good qualities and favorite with
all who knew him. AS driver he was
one of the very best on the river.
| Those left to mourn his loss are his
mother and sisters Theresa, Ella and
Martha of Grand Rapids and Mrs. John
Corbett of Glydden and his two
| brothers Andrew of South Kaukauna
and Edward of this city.
The news of the young mans death
was a great shock to his friends here
and they have been willing to render
any assistance in helping to find the
body. The sympathy of all who knew
Mr.. Burns is with those who are left to
mourn his loss.

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending Monday, May
20, by 5. Z. Emery, Director Weather
Bureau, Milwaukee, Wis. Bulletin No.
Z.
The main features of the weather
conditions during the present week are
the remarkably low temperature and a
series Of frosts, which began at the
close of last week and reoccurred
almost nightly up to the present time.
Rainfall was fairly we'll distributed. and
the amount received sufficient for all
needs except in two or three of the
extreme southern counties. Owing to
the continuance of the cold weather all
vegetation is at standstill, and the full
amount of damage inflicted by the
frost is not vet ascertainable, but it is
certain that fruits Of all kinds are
greatly injured, and i'll some sections OF
the state entirely killed. Grapes are
very generally killed, the extensive
vineyards III the southwest portion
being practically ruined Garden truck
and early planted corn are cut to the
ground and will have to be replanted.
Potatoes in some sections are killed.
while III others they escaped injury.
In the northern portion of the state the
foliage on elm, butternut, oak and
maple trees is dead.

Consumption and Lung Difficulties

Always arise from particles of corrupt
matter deposited in the air-cells, by i'm
pure blood. Purify that stream of life
and it will very soon carry off and de-
stroy the poisonous matter and like a
crystal river flowing through desert,
will bring with it and leave throughout
the body the elements of health and
strength. As the river, leaving the
elements of fertility in its course,
causes the before barren waste to bloom
with flowers and fruit, SO. pure blood
causes the frame to rejoice in strength
and health, and bloom with unfading
beauty. All medicine Dealers sell Dr..
