Are You Willing to Listen to a
Suggestion?

THE NEw York TRIBuNR's broad columns and
large print make it the easiest paper in the country
to read, either on the cars or at home.
Henry Romeike, proprietor of the largest News
paper Clipping Agency in the world, testifes in a
published card, that his clippings for over 1900
clients show that THE TRIBUNE contains, sday by
day and week by week, far more original matter
than any daily newspaper in New York City," He
proves the fact by figures. THE WEEKLY ranks the
same,
Business men find the market reports of THR
TRIBUNE absolutely without an equal. THE TR1-
BUNE is the only newspaper in New York City
whose reporters actually visit all the different mar
ketS in person.
The TRIBUNE now prints the best and freshest
humorous pictures of the day from the comic press
OF two continents, and supplies plenty of other
entertainment.
able editorials and high literary character, THE
TRIBUNE maintains a splendid position in the re-
gard of Republicans and lovers OF music, art and
good books.
The .TRIBUNB's society news is known everv-
where for excellence. Its Fashions have always
been OF special value, and changes of the style are,
as a rule, foretold in The TRIBUNE sooner than in
other newspapers.
The NEW York TRIBUNE is recognized. officially,
as the leading, newspaper of the Republican party.
As for Farming and Labor, The TRIBUNE has for
so years demanded, and yet demands, that every
possible dollars worth of goods and commodities,
consumed by the American people, shall be produced
by the American people. For this cause, The
TRIBUNE labors in various editions 365 days in every
year.
A man is judged by the newspaper he takes. He
who reads The TRIBUNE is wide awake, progress
i've, respectable and capable, worthy of the conf
dence OF business and social friends. If you are a
young man, you will live in a rut all your life
Except by catering to that which is basel if you
feed your mind upon newspapers, full of scandal,
vulgarity, and inanity. Think for a moment of the
people who read newspapers of that class. On the

He Feared no Noise.

A little negro gamin passing along one
of the streets in a neighboring city the
other morning saw a stump of q cigar fall
on the pavement in front of a store. He
made a second base slide for it, and when
he had it safely corralled beneath him he
rolled his eyes around the points OF the
compass to see if any other gamin had
seen the stump fall.
"Dat war in Cuba is making Habaners
skace, and you can't take no chances"
he remarked as he brushed off the ash
and blew away the sand and dust from
the coveted ''snipe." Going into the
store he said to Charley Ellis:
"Boss, gimme a match, please, sab ?"
Matches are not here to give away,
but to SELL" said MIR. Ellis, assuming q
look of intense severity.
"Dey is, eh?"
"That's what they are."
"Well, how much is dey 'er box ?"
"One cent"
The gamin tilted the stump in one cor
ner of his mouth, held to the band Of his
p~antaloons with one hand, ran the Other
hand in his pocket and pulled forth
copper.
"Gimme q box," and he laid down
cent.
He got the box, struck a match, lit the
stump so we'll that it poured forth vol
umes of smoke, and then handing the DO,
back to Mr.. Ellis. assumed a look of in
tense severity and said /:
"Put dat box on de shes, an de mex

IT IS NEVER THE SAME AGAIN.
BY DR.. j. M. STEWART.


When the baby. GOD bless it, has shed Its
long clothes,
1t Ia never the same again;
While the older it gets the bigger 1t grows;
1t is never the same again,
Let the colt n the kitten in innocence
play,
n the puppy go gambol the hours away;
Tomorrow soon comes with regrets of to-
day:
1t is never the same again.
When the boy is arrayed in his first pair of
'pants,"
1t Is never the anne again;
He is bigger by far than his sisters or aunts,
1t is never the same again;
Let him revel in pockets he meier had before,
And fill them with all SOL is of rubbish
galore,
The future such moments can never restore;
1t is never the same again.
When the youth first count the prob.
lem of life, -
1t is never the same agaf
strife.
1t is never the same again;
Leu MIN Hlake OF the RpfIu WnaU IN fancy 1t
seems,
Be glad in its sunshine and bask in its
beams,
For soon he'll awake-let him dream out his
dreams:
1t is never the same again.
When the man has at list all ambition at
tanned, h.
- IT Ia never tho 10 mo aOain
And the pleasure of lib to the dregs he has
drained,
1t is never the same again;
Let him strive as hekgin, and strive but in
vain, "
To call back the joys,that the years have all
slain,
E'en memory becomes lot a pleasure but
pain:
1t never the Ame again.
When the old man isIleft on life's shore
alone,
1t is neverth the game again;
He watches the mists where his friends have
all gone,
1t is never the game again:
lie IS done with this void, let him patiently
bide
TIL his time comes to go on the ebb of the
tide,
And, haply. well heaTtrom the heavenly
side:
Is never thesame again."

A GOOD REASON.

In Henry County, Illinois, some years

"Yes. sir" was the reply, with a heroic
flush.

Women are not the only ones who are
sensitive about their ages. A man doesn't
like TO be told that he is getting old
Health keeps a man young. 1t doesn't
make any difference if he has lived eighty
years. If they have been healthy years
he will be hale and hearty and won't lool
within twenty years as old as he is. Good
digestion and rich, red blood make people
look youthful. DR.. Pierce's Golden

works according to the right theory, and
in 80 years of practice, it has proved thai
the theory is absolutely correct. 1t begins
at the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS by putting thu
stomach, liver and bowels into perfect
order, but it begins its good work on the
blood before it finishes with the digestive
system. 1t searches out disease germi
