He Was Exempt.

One of the most popular men that ever
lived in the state of Nevada was Bishop
Whitaker of the Episcopalian church, who
is now located in Pennsylvania and many
stories are told at his expense. One of the
best that l have ever heard is the incident
that Mike Tarpey, the politician, relates
whenever the good bishops name is men
toned.
Although I'm a Catholic" said he,
'and the bishop is an Episcopalian, we al
ways thought great deal of each other
There was nothing that l would not do for
the bishop, so that accounts for the fact
that | was driving with him from Phoebe
to Dry valley to help him raise money with
which to build a new Episcopalian church
in Phoebe.
"One of the most peculiar characters in
that neighborhood was a man who was
generally known by tho sobriquot of Billy
be-Damn. He earned it by reason of the
surprising eloquenco of his profanity. He
could outswear any man in Nevada, and
in those days it took better than raw
hand at cussing to do that. Billy was
baldheaded, and he was firmly convinced
that the custom of imprisoning the hair in
hat was responsible for its loss. For
that reason he usually wore hat with the
crown cut out of it or no hat at ALL
"As the bishop and were driving along
he suddenly seized me by the arm, ex-
claiming:
e" Stop! Hold ON minute.
II pulled up the horse and saw Billy
be-Damn turning a windlass Just below
the road. AS usual, he had no crown in
his hat, and the hot July sun was beating
down on his shiny pate in way that
threatened sunstroke at least.
" My good man, said the bishop, don't
you know that this hot sun beating down
on your unprotected head will bake your
brain?'
BILLY glanced up in surprise and then,
with an expression of disgust on his face,
replied:
"'You id fool, do you suppose if ]
had any brain I'd be turning this wind
lass" San Francisco Post.

Her Dinner Order.

A young man who had lived quietly and
simply in the country came into little
money, and, like IA fool, rushed off to town
to throw it away. Knowing nobody, the
process was at first slow and even difficult.
But he heard in restaurants he froquented

or breeding, Boosting of the money they
had spent at dinners. He heard one say,
II had great dinner last night, and 1t

restaurant, and, callinga waiter, explain
ed pompously: See here! want an ex-

For your Protection. Catarrh "Cures" O,

For your Protection Catarrh "Cures" or
TONES for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather, 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catalrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, q roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
inflammation and heal the membrane. Elys
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

THE SMILE ON OUR BABY'S FACE.

Gods angel was hidden to make her fair,
So he wove the sunshine into her hair.
He took of the midnoon's cloudless skies
And fashioned therefrom her two blue eyes.
He washed her white with the sinless SHOWS
And painted her cheeks with the dawns faint
rose.
He dimpled her tiny hands and feet
He made her sunny and soft and sweet,
He nodded her round white limbs with art,
He got her from heaven pure child heart;
Then he kissed her lips and her brow and eyes
And brought her, sleeping, from paradise.
Such virtue lies in those kisses three
That how so weary at heart are we,
The look and the smile on our babys face
Bring rest and comfort and endless grace.
Bessie Gray in Good Housekeeping.
