Our representative has made a careful In.
vestigation of the H. f. Spaulding case at
Longview, which is here published for the
first time, and which will be read with
great interest by medical men everywhere.
In reply to the Christian AdU0cGte's ques-
tons Mr.. Spaulding said. About eight years
ago while running locomotive | contracted
sciatic rheumatism in my left side from my
hip down. 1t came on slow but sure and in
a few months | lost control entirely OF that
member, it was Just the same as if 1t was
paralyzed, | was totally unable to move out
of my room for year and half, SIX
months of which time | was bed-ridden. /

lar physicians in constant attendance on
me. / was bundled up and sent to Hot
Springs where ] spent three months under
the treatment of the most eminent special

condition than when | went. came nome
and laid fat on my back and suffered
the most excruciating agonies, screaming IN
pain every time anybody walked across the
room. the only ease | obtained being from
the constant use of opiates. After three
months of this kind of agony, during
which time my entire left leg persisted away
to the very bone, nv attention was called to

He said: 81 know that Mr.. Spaulding had

The STORY OE A JOKE.
Two Men Made 1t, but Another Fellow
Got Paid For Ii.


The managing editor of now dead
and forgotten newspaper was an admirer
of hUn0r. Without spark Of it III his
own composition, he had learned in bis
long newspaper experience that ju-
die, Jus injection of wit and fancy made
a paper popular. He learned the lesson
earlier than the other editors III the
town, and his was the first paper to en-
liveu its pages with bits Of humor. The
"old man" recognized his own incapac-
ity in the matter of jokes He knew that
thousands laughed at things that seem
ed foolish and fiat to him. When he
started using humorous matter, he hired
young man to supervise the prepara-
ton and publication of the stuff, Know
ing absolutely nothing about jokes and
jokers, he employed a man who had
made a reputation among other people
by his work ON an eastern funny paper.
The young man had a brilliant idea.
He offered reward of So. so for every
original joke brought in by members of
the staff. The cold man. backed him
up-nothing was too expensive if it sold
papers. The result Of the prize offer was
a remarkable outpouring of alleged wit.
One man caught the fever the first day.
Timidly he went to the professional
humOrist.
do you buy jokes here:" he asked.
The humorist took the proffered pa
per from the new mans hand and read
it. Eyes, - he said, and handed back the
paper.
The newcomer retired crestfallen.
Immediately following this passage at
arms Frank Walsh, the best hearted fell
low in the office, scrubbed few lines ON
a sheet of paper and handed it to the
professional humorist Without a word
the latter wrote out an order on the
cashier for So. so. The other members
of the staff wondered at the occurrence,
and watched the paper for the appear
ance of the joke 1t was not published,
and after few days the boys began to
ask about the witticiSm the editor had
paid for and did not use. Finally Walsh
told them what it was Here it is:
"Young Man (handing paper to edi-
tor)--Do you buy jokes here?
Editor {returning paper)-We do. -

Senator Sherman's EuIOgy of Lincoln Dur.
Ing His Campaign For Reelection.
Senator Sherman of Ohio in speech
at Sandusky, DUNG the campaign for
Lincoln S reelection, in the fall Of 1864,
drew this rough but accurate outline Of
the lamented Presidents character:
Il know Old Abe, and I tell you
there is not, at this hour, a more patri.
otto or truer man living than that
man, Abraham Lincoln. Some say he is
an lmhecile, but he not only held his
own IN his debates with Douglas, whose
power is admitted, and whom | consid-
er the ablest intellect i'll the United
States senate, but got little the better
Of him. He has been deliberate and
slow, bat when he puts his foot down
1t Is with the determination and GER
tainty with which our generals take
their steps and, like them, when he
takes a city he never gives up, This
firm old man is noble and kind hearted.
He is a child of the people. Go to him
with a story Of woe, and he will weep
ike child. This man, SO condemned,
works more hours than any other presi-
dent that ever occupied the chair. His
solioitude for the public welfare is new
er ceasing | differed from him at first
myself. but at last felt and believed
that ne was right, and shall vote for
this brave, true, patriotic, kind hearted
man. All his faults ard mistakes you
have seen. All his virtues you can new
er know. His patience in labor is won
derfuI. He works far harder than any
man in Erie county. At the head OF this
great nation-look at it He has all the
bills to sign passed by congress. No one
can be appointed to any office without
his approval. No one can be punished
without the judgment receives his sig
nature, and no one pardoned without
his hand. This man-always right, al
ways 5ust-we propose to re-elect now
