vItuous Patience Is Not "parn'' Lazlns.s.

blackbird once had heard 1t said
That patience is a virtue"
or YOU have oft the same thing read,
Don't let this moral hurt you.)
That ''all things come to those who walt
The blackbird tho't most truly.
And then bemoaned his sad, sad fate
Because 1t worked so cruelty.
He sat him down upon lump,
Full patiently to wait
For worms to come so fine and plump,
HIS appetite to safe.
A hungry crow that worked by,
Oft found a fine fat worm,
And then he "winked the other eye"
To see the blackbird squirm.
For he In patience long did wait
From sunrise till the cleaning,
And now from hunger sick and faint
He was his fate bemoaning.
The wise old crow. while joshing him,
Did let the secret out,
And told him that his vision dim
Had spoiled his luck no doubt.
You failed, my friend, to this discern,
Twas stupid hazness
Vlrtuous patience. you must learn,
Is not darn laziness.

Mr.. Isaac Horner, proprietor Of the

the mos widely known men in the state
was cured IF rheumatism after three
years of suffering. He says: II have
not sufficient command of language to
convey any idea of what l suffered, my
physicians told me that nothing could
be done for me and my friends were
fully convinced that nothing but death
would relieve me of my suffering. In
June, 1894. Mr.. Evens, then salesman
for the Wheeling Drug Co., recommen-
ded Chamberlain's Pain Balm. At this
time my foot and limb we're swollen to
more than double their normal size and
it seemed to me my leg would burst, but
soon after began using the Pain Balm
the swelling began to decrease, the pain
to leave, and now consider that l am
entirely cured. For sale by w. F. Pine,

"Our locomotives may 60 into the
scrap heap, as the old stage coaches
had to go" says President Clark of
the New Haven railroad. The rea-
son Is to be found in the success of
the new third rail system. In brief.
electricity has been adopted 70 the
long distance track by means of this
rail. Electricity is sent into the third
rail by various power houses along
the route. The motor apparatus of
the car takes the current from the
rail by means of two shoes 80 feet
apart. These slide along above the
rail. An experiment train driven
thus was able to make over a mile a
minute. Railway officials are more
than pleased. If the system is as
successful as it promises to be, we
have at hand revolution in railway
travel. The electricity can be fur
nished more cheaply than steam.
There will be no stoppage for fuel
and water along the route, no smoke
or cinders. Passengers may have
windows open with impunity and will
not wake in the morning to find their
berths in the sleeping car pepperel
over with SCOT. Travel will become
a Joy, as one is whirled to his desti-
nation at the rate of a mile q minute
It will be possible to journey from
San Francisco cross the continent to
New York or Boston in less than four
days.

.Tornado Drills in Kansas"

Some one has said, as q means of
protection, a person should always 60
armed with an umbrella and a club
the umbrella to protect your person
from rain, and the club, we suspect.
to soften the head of the liar and
character assassin. Poor old ''bleed-
ing Kansas" is still subject to mis-
representation by her Eastern friends.
When the drouth and hard times no
longer allow a subterfuge for vitu-
peration, the tornado or something
else takes the place. But the tornado,
though few and far between, is an
invisible number this year; and yet
the Scientific American. an ordinar-
lily very truthful journal, has been
caught unawares in the publication
of the following article:
GIN the East we have fire drills in
our public schools, and on more than
one occasion they have proved to be
very effective in an emergency, but in
Kansas they have drill of another
kind, for their tornades are more to
be dreaded than fire, and school chill
dren are now being trained in tor
nado drills. When the tornado
strikes Kansas town the inhabitants
at once make for the paririe. It is
almost the only way to escape death
from the flying debris of houses, fall
ing trees and topping buildings.
The school children are trained to
know this, and on these occasions
rush pell nell for the nearest bit of
clear prairie but many children
have been manned and some killed in
these terrible storms. There has
been a movement throughout the
State to have tornado caves built
under the school houses, large
enough to accommodate all the chill
dren while the blow lasts. The tor
nado drill is very much like a fire
drill. The teacher sounds the alarm
on q piano and the children stand up;
then a march is played and out they
go in good order, down the stairs
and into the tornado cave. If the
entire building falls into ruins, the
children are safe in the tornado proof
cave"

President Mckinley is his special
message to Congress said ]: "In rails
ing revenue duties should be so levied
upon foreign products as to preserve
the home market so far as possible to
our own producers, to revive and in
crease manufactures, to relieve and
encourage agriculture, to increase our
domestic and foreign commerce, to
aid and develop mining and building.
and to render to labor in every field
of useful occupation the liberal wages
and adequate rewards to which skill
and industry are justly entitled"
That is the republican doctrine, and
if the republicans were in full con-
troll of the government those doc
trines and policies would be enacted
into law. If the senate would pass
the Dingley bill just as it was passed
by the house prosperity would speed
lily come, and it would come to stay.

About High Enough.

People seem to be going wild over
cattle, or at least it looks that way to us.
We know of q number of last spring
calves selling recently for as high as SIS
per head, and we believe the man who
sells at that figure is about the only one
who is going to realize much of profit
on the deal. A great many people here
are altogether too apt to change their
notion Of doing business at the wrong
time. About three times since we have
been in this country, majority Of the
people have either gone wild over cattle
and quit farming, or gone wild over
farming and sold their cattle. When
stock goes up everybody wants to 60 into
the stock business, and about the time
they get into it. stock goes down and
they want to sell and 60 to farming again.
We do not remember time when stock
of all classes has been much if any high
er, than now, and we won Id ADVISE the
boys to look ont. 1t has been the history
Of this country that when cattle get as
high IS they are now, there Is a tumble
in price, and it will no doubt come
again, probably not right OF. but it
would be mighty good plan to figure
on it coming.-Jetmore Herald.

When a man begins to 60 down
hill he finds everything creased for
the occasion, says phil osopher, who
might have added that when he tries
to climb up he finds everything
CREASED for the occasion, too. The
business of this country vent down
hill with whiz when Grover Cleve-
land became president the second
time. and to climb up the hill, CREASED
by the democracy, is slow process.
But business is climbing upward
every day, and before McKinley's
term expires we will be on the bill Of
prosperity once more.

"What becomes of the dyspeptic?'
inquiries contemporary. Well, the
dyspeptic usually lives to green and
miserable old age, to the great dis
gust of those about him. Then he
dies and goes to the place of endless
torment, but he doesn't realize it.
He knows that slight change for
the better has taken place in his con-
dition, but he doesn't understand just
what it is. Then he begins to COM
plain that the molten lead and other
table delicacies don't agree with him,
and tbenceforward conducts himself
in pretty much the same way he did
