Peru Puts a Premium ON Crime.

Not long since one Albert McMul-
len, after filling up with tanglefoot
thought to make the social part of a
sociable being held in school house
hall in Dist. No. A more lively, put
in an appearance there and accord
ing to the evidence at the trial, made
himself obnoxious for which jury
found him guilty of intoxication and
he was fined a certain sum with costs
which he refused to pay. He was
committed TO Jail to serve out the
time fixed by statute in such cases
made and provided, but feeling he
was not sufficiently we'll clothed to
appear before the jailor he called up
on The overseer of the poor for an
overcoat and pair of gloves which
were bought for him. After serving
his time out in Jail he returns and
again calls upon the overseer and Sc
cures an order on G. l.. Richardson
for five dollars worth of goods and
proceeds to furnish himself with moe
casins, rubbers, ETC., to withstand
the climate out of doors. Now if
this is not fostering and putting pre-
MUM on rum, please name it.

DON'T DO THESE.

Don't steal another mans good name,
even il your own is worn out.
Don't raise your hand against your
Observation-Disclosures are plenty.
Don't pattern after the busy little
bee. It's the other fellow that cats the
honey.
Don't monopolize one color in your
make up. A ruby nose spols the eff
feet of ruby lips.
Don't bet with your wife, unless you
ere prepared to lose, whether you win

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Sell him for what you can get and let
the other fellow look.
Don't judge man by the clothes he
wears. Form your opinion from the
wearing apparel of his wife.
Don't be clam. If you must be any
thing of that kind, be a turtle. Then
you will have little snap about you.
DON'T take a bull by the horns. Take
him by the tail and then you can let
60 without getting some one to help
you.

ThOse Who Endure

The pains of rheumatism should be re.
minded that cure for this disease NAV
be found in Hoods Sarsaparilla. The ex-
perience of those who have taken Hoods
Sarsaparilla for rheumatism, and have
been completely and permanently cured,
prove the power CT this medicine to rout
and conquer this disease. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is the One True Blood Purifier and
1t neutralizes the acid which causes the
aches and pains of rheumatism. This is
why it absolutely cures when liniments
and other outward applications fail to
give permanent relief. Be sure to get
Hoods.

The Pulling Through OF Todium.

The crossest man in Glosterkonk,
Without no doubt, is DR.. Bronx.
OF DIR. Bronx hez got a jaw
That's tirmer than the morril law,
An DIR, Bronx hez got a frown
That purity nearly knocks We down.
Gee he is sot an stiff an tough
An made of linkum witty stuff.
Wen he comes in sick room he
Kicks up etarnal Robbery;
He jaws because the airs too het,
An cause he finds the winders shet,
He's jest ez like to scold ez not
Cause the cold water is too hot;
An then, mex minute, he will scold
Cause the hot water is too cold.
He scares the women from their wits
An gives the nurse conniption fits;
An wen he's there they want to die,
An wen he's gone they set an cry.
But we love DR.. Bronx, we do;
For DR.. Bronx pulled Todlum through
But there are few in Glosterkonk
Who waste much love on DR.. Bronx,
For even gentle Elder Priest
Says he is savage as beast;
An Abram Murch an Hiram Howe
Say they wouldn' hev him to cows
An that good soul, Amt Hester Pratt,
SEE she wouldn' hev him to cat,
Wouldn' hev the pesky critter nigh
Onless she wished the cat to die.
''Op vinegar is honeycomb
Compared to him." said Deacon Home.
"a bears gentleman" said jim,
"a gentleman compared to him."
Wall, maybe all these things are true,
But Bronx, hepulled our Todlum through
Young Todlum he was very sick,
An we got smilin' Dr. Dick;
He tot us twas no use to try;
A hopeless case; the child mus die.
"Git DR.. Brown!" my wife she cried.
He came; the child had almost died.

No use, good friends, to fight with fate. y
An then my wife she turned to me,
"Run quick an git Of Bronx !" said she.
An OF Bronx came. How he did swear
About the closeness of the air;
Threw off three quilts upon the floor,
An bellered out, "Don't shet that door !!
He sent US flynn here an there,
An everything we did he'd swear.
He kept us in tremblin' plight,
For everything we did warn't right.
But we held in--didn' make sound
An let the OF bear thunder round.
He kept us jumpin' a. night long,
An everything we did was wrong.
At daylight Todlum give a groan,
A still, faint, awful kind of moan
"He's going He's going ? my wife
she cried,
An fell down sobbin' at his side.
Don't bawl so, woman; can't yer see

Todlum looked up, the blessed child
Into his mothers face an smiled.
Don't make SIGH thunderin' huilabaloo"
Said Bronx, "Ive pulled the rascal
through"
"Don't make such thunderin' hullabaloo
Get up I've pulled yer rascal tn ough."
The sweetest words that ever rung
From any seraph angels tongue
Were not so sweet as these he said
While we were standiu roun' that bed.
Ny wife she threw her arms around
That or bears. neck with one glad
bound;
Her face was in his whiskers hid.
She Rugged an kissed him-yes, she
did !
The sweetest words We ever heard,
| guess it soun's absurd,
Were just them words that oil Bronx
While we We're standin' roun' that bed:
Don't make SIGH thunderin hullabaloo
Get up I've pulled yer rascal through.

San Francisco, June IA fire in the
southeastern part of the city at noon
Sunday cost three fremen their lives
and entailed property loss of 100000.
The following were killed: John Ma
honey, of chemical engine No. 6; Frank
Keller. steward of hose cart No. 2;
James Hallinan. driver of truck No. ].
The fire started mysteriously in the
four-story brick building owned by
Schroth & Westerfield and leased to the
Standard Biscuit company. After the
first alarm the fire chief turned in a
second and general alarm. A stiff
breeze famed the fire within the brick
walls, causing it to spread with extraor-
binary rapidity, and it was soon appar-
ent that the interior of the structure
would be entirely destroyed.
