Life is like a book in which we
every day read page. We ought to
note down every instructive incident
that passes. A crowd of useful
thoughts cannot but flow from self
converse. Hold every day solitary
conversation with yourself. This is
the way in which to attain the high
est relish OF existence; and, if we may
say so, to cast an anchor in the river
of life.

A contemporary tells the following
story: can elderly gentleman ac-
customed to indulge entered the
room of certain inn, where sat a
sedate old Quaker by the fire. Lift

his forehead, rubbing his infamed
eyes, and calling for hot brandy and

that his eyes were getting weaker and

seem to do them any good. 'In tell

the spectacles over thy mouth for a

THY NAME is LEGION.

The policeman was standing dream
lily on the dock looking out over the
silently moving river when man ev-
identity from the rural districts, came
up to him excitedly.
"Say, Mr.. Officer" he exclaimed:
''is the water here deep enough to
drown man of my size?'
"Well, I should smile," grinned the
officer.
"You suppose I'd drown if I jump
into it?''
Likely enough, if I didn't fish you
out'
"You wouldn't do that if l didn't
want you to, would you?' he asked in
a hurt tone.
''I'm afraid I'd have to-"
All the good it would do me, then,
would be a victim and a suit of store
clothes all drawed out of shape?"
"That's all about it."
''I guess [ might as we'll hadn't,

"Just as well, I guess" conceded
the officer.
'But 1 wouldn't be Responsible
said the man looking wild again.
"Of course you would be-" replied
the officer.
81 guess not.n
"Why?"
"Idiots amt responsible, are they?"
"No but you are no idiot"
"Ain't [? Well 1 guess you don't
know me.''
E'You don't talk like one"
"And [ don't look like one, [ hope"
he said more nationally, but a snoozer
up town here took me for one awhile
ago, and he didn't miss it millionth
part of an inch"
"What do you mean?"
''Just what [ say. [ came to this
town this morning from up coun-
try with S27 in my pocket. L got to
talking with a Teller in the depot, and
after bit he asked me over and paid
for the drinks. Then he walked with

and said he had bill to pay
in there, and would l loan him few
dollars on his check, and then we
could go over the way and getit cash

said he thought the bill was $25, but
it was all the same, he would take the

SURPRISED GIRLS.

Up in one of the northern suburbs
of Philadelphia an itinerant photo
grapher recently set up his booth
upon a vacant lot. Five merry maid
ems were out for walk the other day
when their attention was caught by
the display of portraits on the outer
walls of the gallery. ooh, girls, do
let's have our pictures taken - cried
a chubby blonde with fluffy hair. The
suggestion was adopted, and noisy
consultation with the artist terminal
ed in a decision to be taken after the
manner of those fam iliar cherubs who
gaze out through a hole in a cloud.
The artistic accessories of the estab-
lishment were limited and the camera
manipulation was shy of clouds. But
he was a man of infinite resource and
he promptly impro vised the required
ethereal background by cutting slit
in a large newspaper. Through the
hole in the paper each of the five
pretty heads was successfully thrust
to be snapped at by the camera. When
the developing process was completed
a horrible discovery was made. The
newspaper page had contained
mammoth advertisement of pa
tent medicine, and there, beneath
each cherubic countenance, was the
line in big display type: "Hood's
Sarsaparilla!''

FARMER J. B. Lone of Rusk

FARMER j. B. Lone of Rusk,
master of the Texas State
Grange, rather took the wind
oat of Farmer" Shaw's sails
at the late meeting Of the
Grange, when he differed from
the latter gentleman on the IL
nancial question. declaring
himself opposed to free silver
and urging his fellow farmers
TO think for themselves. Said
he: Now they charge me with
being gold bug. Why l have
not seen a gold dollar in years

Of them know what a gold bug

charges against them are IN

have gold and silver and paper
currency based or it, and this
Is not gold buggism" Mr..
Long then argued against
all this howl about finances.
and declared that if a silver
basis should be inaugurated
tomorrow, il would not hurt the
banks, it would be the farmers
themselves and the working
classes who would suffer from
the disorganization and depre-
citation of the currency. Mr..
Long is sure enough farmer,
and one Of those who think for
themselves, and his opinion
will doubtless have more
weight with the great mass of
agriculturists than that Of Mr..
Shaw, who. is a "farmer" in

WANTED TO FIT IN HIS COFFIN

There is not in Europe a more
magnificent burial place than the
mausoleum in the park of Hamilton
Palace where the late Duke of Ham
ilton was recently buried. This
mausoleum was built about 90 years
by the late Dukes grandfather Duke
Alexander, the son-in-law of Beck
ford at cost of fI50,000. Italian
artists and workmen were principal
" employed. 1t is a square building
surrounded by a round tower and a
stone cupola, with bronze gates,
which are copied from those of the
Baptistery at Florence.
Duke Alexander. who died in
1854, is himself buried here in the
alabaster sarcophagus of an Egyp-
tan queen, which he purchased dur
ing his life, when travelling in Up
per Egypt. This he always intend
ed to be his own coffin, and it was
kept in Hamilton Palace many years.
The Duke frequently lay down in
the sarcophagus, and, finding it to
be too small for his body, he left an
other direction, that, if necessary, his
breastbone should be sawed through
so tibet it might be doubled up and
the corpse laid in the coffin which
he had so carefully preserved for its
reception. The sarcOphagus was an
exquisite piece of work and covered
with Observation-Disclosures Ga
