think that if I ever got to be worth
500, 900 I should be the happiest man
alive. Now I am worth that and more,
but feel that I am no happier than in
my poorer days
George W. Pullman said: II am
certainly no happier than when I had
not dollar that I could call my own
save that for which I worked from
morn till night. [ can wear but one
suit of clothes. | ate three square
meals day then and can eat no more
now. Then I had no responsibilities
and could go to sleep when my head
touched the pillow. Now that have
vast interests and business cares rest
ing upon me, cannot sleep like | did
then. I was happier then than [ am
now.
And many others answered on the
same line. Now the question comes
up why don't they tighten the load?
If the surplus brings care and trouble,
why don't they stop trying to make
it bigger? Why not divide out the
responsibility ? [ know lots of men
who would help to carry the load. In
fact, I would volunteer my own servi-
ces. I don't understand why these
men all write one way and do another
way. But maybe it is the force of
habit-like the poor fellow who had
staid in Jail so long he wouldent come
out when his time had expired. We
all like to see a man succeed in his
business, but we like him still more if
he becomes his own executor and does
not hold on to his riches until grim
death has to prize his hand open to
make him let so. 1t seems to me
there would be great reward in help
ing the unfortunate. Some men say
that poverty and misfortune come
from bad conduct and bad manage
ment. Well, it does as general rule,
but there are so many exceptions that
it can hardly be called rule. Good
luck has made many man rich, but
he thinks it was his smartness. And
bad luck has made many a one poor.
The Germans have a word for an un-
lucky man that we have no equivalent
for. They call him a schlemiel-that
is person who never prospers, with
whom everything goes wrong, misfor-
tune has marked him-bad luck fol-
lows him. Yet, as though providence
had pity on him, the schlemiel is al
wovs good natured and light hearted.
A smile illuminates his face, just such
smile as our wood hauler wears. |
reckon he is a schlemiel. But the
good Lord shapes the back to the bur-
den. The German schlemiel is con-
scious of his misfortune and will say
with a merry twinkle of the eye: Il
ain t no goot. I got no sense. l ish
schlemiel."
I know some such people-good
people they are, too, but bad luck has
followed them ever since [ knew them
bad luck in money way, mean,
but I like to meet them they are so
cheerful and amiable and they laugh
so merrily at joke, BILL ARP.

Since 1878 there have been nine ep-
idcmics of dysentcry in different parts
of the country in which Chamberlain S
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
was used with perfect success. Dys-
cntcry, when epidemic, is almost as
severe and dangerous as Asiatic chol-
era. Heretofore the best efforts Of the
most skillful physicians have failed to
check it's ravages; this remedy, how
ever, has cured the most malignant
cases, both of children and adults, and
under the most trying conditions,
which proves it to be the best medi-
cine in the world for bowel complaint.

Gen. Lees Last Years.

"Gen. Lee never left Lexington
after he assumed the presidency Of
the college," said S. d. Mccormick
recently. s'He had distinguished Wis
itors from North and South, and from
Europe, and they still come to visit
his tomb. Hundreds of invitations
came to him to attend army reunions
and the like, but he always courteous
ly declined them. But every evening
he would mount his horse and take an
hours ride. I have often met him at
these times. He would always give
the military salute. Sometimes he
would rein in his horse and talk.
ellis demeanor was always digni-
fed and serious indeed, sad new
er saw him smile. One could feel the
very personality Of Lee pervading the
atmosphere around old Washington
and Lee University. Every student
was on his honor. Not one of them
would lie. You have some idea OF
what college boys are and what many
of them will do They will stop at
nothing in their pranks. Yet stu
dents in that university have convict.
ed themselves of pranks that caused
their expulsion because they could
not lie when brought face to face with
Gen. Lee. He was absolutely pure
man, if ever one lived. He neither
drank, chewed nor smoked, nor ever
used vulgar language. He was clean
man.
"Washington was his idol. He
patterned his life after that illustri-
Gus patriot. In his very bearing and
personality he reminded one Of Wash
ington. You know how closely he
was allied to the family Of Washing
ton. The name of Washington Uni
versity was changed by the Virginia
Legislature to that of Washington
and Lee University. Gen. Lee S wife,
Mary Curtis, sleeps by his side in the
tomb under the chapel platform Of the
university.
Directly opposite the crypt where
Lee lies, and on the same floor, is his
private office, with everything just as
he left this chair, his pen, every
thing just as he had it in life. Above
the crypt rises the monument, and
upon it the reclining figure of the
General in military trappings, executed
in the finest marble by Valentine.
Custis Lee, his son, is now president
of the university. ."-Cincinnati Times

the buying and a weaker opening

be denied, and after December went to

puts" that held the prices, and finally
worked up to 6024, where it struck an
other snap The report that the govern
ment would issue a document telling
of an improvent in spring wheat
of fifteen points resulted in some
heavy selling and another smash,

Against Her VIII.
ATCHToN, Sept 6-There is still a
good deal of talk in West Atchison re-
garding the marriage and courtship of
Harrison DOwney and Mrs. Charles Ay-
lor, who were quietly married before
Judge Snyder late last Wednesday even
ing.
Downey is one of the most worthless
fellows that AtchisOn county ever pro-
duced, while Mrs AyIor is very promi-
nent in West Atchison, and has host of
friends
1t seems that Downey was hired by her
to do some work about the place and
boarded with her during the time He
had only worked about two DAYS when a
vigorous courtship sprang up between
the couple, and about o'clock Wednes-
day evening they hunted up Judge Suy-
der and they we're made man and wife in
3 few minutes
They lived together two days, but at
the end of that time Downey was proba-
bly, willing to admit that the woes of
wedlock were too much, for Mrs. Dow
ney gave him the congo.
She claims that Downey hypnotized
her into marrying him, and she will now
sue him for a divorce, but whether she
will allege hypnotism in her plea is not
known.
