TRANSMITTING THE MENU.
How Erastus Gurley Threw n Waiter
Into Cataleptic Fit.

Erastus Gurley was in town yesterday,
and, as usual, proceeded to make his
presence felt, says the St. Paul Pioneer
Press. He arrived about ten a. m, and
for change dropped into a cafe for
dinner The obsequious waiter had Just
hicked bit of lint from Mr. Gurley's
coat collar when Mr.. Gurley opened out
on him.
Eyes," he said, glancing at the menu,
'you may bring me some eggs blushing
like Aurora"
beg pardon, SIR" explained the
waiter, ''it's not on the bill
"Isn't, Ell? What's this @ufs a
paurore?"
"0h, yes," replied the young man,
blushing and shifting somewhat un-
easily.
and l feel just like having some
breeches in the royal fashion, with vel
vet sauce"
The waiter turned red, white and
blue
"Got you again." chuckled Mr.. Sur
ley. "Well, suppose you call it eul-
ottes la royale, sauce velQute,"
ooh, thatl Yes, sir; yes, Sir" and
the waiter brisllly ratified the cutlery
around Mr.. Gurley's plate as though he
would fain drown Mr.. Gurley's voice.
''Be sure you bring stew OF good
Christians"
'Now you are joking" mildly ex-
postulated the waiter, with a sickly
smile.
''Not bit of it, man. See here on
your bill. Compete de bons chretiens."
"O-ah-ugh, gulped the waiter.
"And don't forget the fountains OF
love"
"The-ah--I beg pardon" Z
"Right here on your menu = puts
damour."
well, WE'LL" and the accompanying
grin was CHASTITY.
'And a mouthful of ladies'"
'Eh?"
'Bouche do danes quick, help-a
glass of water-dash it in his faceW
But Mr.. Gurley was too late. The
waiter was in a dead swoon, almost a
cataleptic fit, from which he never re-
covered until along in the afternoon.
AS Mr.. Gurley went out he inquired of
the cashier if the walters there under
stood French.
"Only by ear" answered the light
ning-change artistic, (which ear |
couldn't inform you.

A CLEVER WIFE'S RUSE.

Take Her to Europa.


Take Her to Europa.
"Women are smarter than men every
time, said the manager of a large tour
! ist excursion business in an argument
ever the respective qualities of the
sexes 70 New York Times reporter,
"and can tell you a little story to back
| my statement that think Is a clincher.
When | was in Chicago some years ago
an elderly lady came into nay office one
day and asked me to prepare a trip to
the continent for her husband and her
| self. l set to work on it the following
morning and had just about finished the
schedule when man came rushing in,
introduced himself as the husband of
my previous days caller, and told me to
stop my work. He said he did not want
TO go to Europe, and he wouldn't go,
and he would be blessed if his wife was
goingeither. He notified me also that
he held the family purse-strings, and
then departed.
81 threw the schedule away with q
mild objurgatory remark about female
ways and started in on something else.
"Half an hour later in came the lady
and said that / was not to bother with
what her husband said. She told me
that the trip was going to be made, and
that he was going with her, and that
when she made up her mind to do any
thing she genorally didit. She left aone-
hundred-dollar guarantee with me to
finish upthe itinerary, and | went ahead
"When The starting day came around
the husband walked in to see me, paid
up like little man, and went away
with his tickets, but he offered no ex-
PLANTATION as to his change of mind.
SIN the fall of that year | met the
couple on the steamer coming home,
and one night over our cigars the hus-
band told me the story Of how his wife
persuaded him to take the trip. (,
"'She didn't say a word to me on the
subject, said he, after the day ] called
on YOU to countermand her orders, and
Iswelled with pride to think how easily
l had knocked the idea out of her head.
On the Sunday morning before | called
on you again we went to church as
usual, and after the sermon and just as
was preparing my mind for dinner,
the pastor nearly stunned me by
announcing that my wife and We're to
start for Europe in few days, and
that we wished the prayers of the con-
gregation. All eyes were turned on
our pew at once, and every body joined
in the requested prayer. What could |
do but look thankful? | had a bad
fifteen minutes walking home, and /
didn't enjoy dinner bit; but the funny
side OF the affair struck mo in the after
noon, and before long was congratu

Fads in Medicine.

There are fads in medicine as in
every thing else and "new thing"
frequently sells for short time SIM
ply because it is new. But in med
icine, as in nothing else, the people
demand and will be satisfied only
with positive, absolute merit. The
fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla has
stood it's ground against all competi-
ton, and it's sales have never waver-
ed but have remained steadily at the
top, demonstrates, beyond any doubt,
the intrinsic virtues of this medicine.
The new things have come and gone
but Hoods Sarsaparilla rests upon
the solid foundation of absolute mer-
it and its power to cure, and its sales
continue to be the largest in the
world. 81

It is surprising to many that foot
bali players and other athletes re-
gard sprain or bruise of so little
consequence. One reason Of this is,
they know how to treat such injuries
so as to recover from them in a few
days, while others would be laid up
for two or three weeks, if not longer.

Game Birds.
Major Woodward's Experiments

Major Woodward's Experiments
With Stocking Fair
field County With Birds.
am frequently interrogated on
the subject of pbeasants, and finding
it :rksome to reply to all sipgly I
take this method OF doing so.
Three years ago I purchased Of F.
A. Stuhr, Portland, Oregan, trio
cock and two hens-Mongolian or
Chinese pheasants at a cost then of
SIS apiece and expressage on the lot,
$40. These arrived in May, the 25th,
the party having delayed shipments
in order to get the eggs. In conse-
quencc of the late shipmentI secued
only few eggs and did not raise
any that year. The next year the
two hens laid 1872 eggs, an average
of eighty one apiece; one of them, the
younger, laying 100. From these 1
matured thirty fine birds and turned
out fifteen of them, which are now
reported breeding and doing well,
nests and young broads having been
seen by responsible farmers around.
The next year I lost all my hens from
cholera caused by feeding shells laid
by chicken hens with the disease,
and secured only one setting OF eggs,
from which I succeeded in raising
eight pheasants from them this year.
After distributing about $50 eggs in
several counties, I have reared and
set free ~, which are daily seen in
the pea fields around, and if allowed
to breed next year with these hereto
fore freed will supply this section
bountifully in a few years.
The Mongolian pheasant is the
finest game bird on this continent,
gorgeous to look at, finer in flavor
than the quail, very hardy and
stands we'll the dog. It was sent
from China about 1892 to the Port
land gun and rod club by the United
States consul to Shanghai, and has
oyerrun the State Of Oregon and
Washington. With clubs in each
country to repeat the experiment
made here, and with good game laws,
such as no doubt will be passed by
the next legislature, it would be but
a few years until the State would
swarm with this grandest of birds.
They are not as large as the English
mixture, but 1 think are more hardy
and certainly more prolific. The
cocks weigh three pounds and the
hens two pounds, the common quail
weighs barely half pound. They
are not more difficult to rear than
young turkeys and command good
price if raised for profit.

Bryan Grows in Battle.

The Judgment of a Gold Bug News
paper on his Remarkable Cam
paign.
Washington Post.
st. Louis saw and heard Mr.. Bryan
barely month ago. Since he awak-
ened the admiration of friend and
foe in September, he has travelled to
the Atlantic and back, speaking each
day-and often several times a day
to ON audience peculiar to the place
where he stopped. He has delivered
his message of monetary reform 10
the Southerners of Kentucky and
Virginia. He has appeared before
the worldly wise Washinstonians, the
conservative Baltimoreans and the
commingling of business men, work
ing men and professional men that
make up Tammany.
Speaking at length and extcmpo.
raneously under all those rapid
changing conditions-s feat Of pbysi-
cal and mental endurance never at
tempted before by national candi-
date-be has displayed neither weak.
ness nor WEAKNESS. Though his
speeches have been reported for The
press exactly as he delivered them,
often without his having an opportu-
nifty to see line of the copy, he has
made not single mistake which the
enemy could use to advantage.
He has endured strain which
would break down most men called
robust and return to st. Louis, rip.
ened and developed by the exercise
of meeting great demands with
great powers, to deliver the most
powerful address of his marvellous
canvass and to arouse the enthusiasm
of a mighty audience to a higher
pitch than that of his first visit,
though the warmth of the Septem-
Der ovation has surpassed any expe-
rience of st. Louis in modern cam
paigns.
A man who can increase in power
under such extreme demand is the
man of a century, if not of all the
centuries. Nothing but extraordi-
nary strength, constantly recuperated
by perfect health, could carry on the
task for fortnight.
The Democracy has chosen cham
pion for whom no apologies are neces-
sary. No apprehension is excited.
He can take care of himself and his
party's interests wherever he goes.
AS a Western man in the East he
has inspired respect; as a Northern
man in the South he has won affec-
ton; as a young man among veterans
he has commanded obedience. 1t is
a far more wonderful achievement
than Alexander Hamilton's influence
in the organizing period of the ma
ton, or than Chatham's part in the
overthrow OF Walpole.
