were tiny booklets, decorated on the

Up in Manchester. n. H., where To-
comotives and cotton prints are made

Cy. says the Washington Post. He is
feet inches tall and probably Will be
the tallest man in congress. His heart
is as big as the rest of his body and a
thousand men whom he has befriended
would rise in all their might TO save
him from all harm. For twenty years
the Manchester people have been say
ing that some day Cy should go 10 cor
gress. So here he is.
Well, in his younger days Cy rather
wandered from the path that led TO the
church in which the rest Of the family
worshiped. He had wild cats TO SOW
and he sowed them. While engaged in
this occupation the salvation-arm
people came to town. They held their
meetings upon the street corners and OF
course they gathered crowds. Thus it
happened that one day the police came
along and arrested them-carried off
lads and lasses to the station house.
The news of the arrest came TO Cy as
he sat up in his barn of an office, and il
made his big heart feel sad. He wasn't
religious, you know, but he had enough
sympathy to take in all the world.

A decision lately rendered by Judge
Hastings should be read by every one
who has property insured. 1t is to
the effect that policy on a building
which remains unoccupied for 10 days
without the knowledge or consent of
the insurance company, becomes abso-
lutely void Should tie building be
subsequently occupied and destroyed
by fire during the time for which the
policy was to run, the insurance can
not be collected This, it is said, APP
plies to dwelling houses which may
remain unoccupied by reason of the
family's absence. There can be no
doubt that many houses in this city are
for the reasons above given, uninsured
though the owners may be under a
different impression.
