Words OF Wisdom.

No man loses his keyhole at home.
Vulgar ostentation defaces many
grave.
Crime makes fools of its smartest
friends.
Action has little time to use its
tongue.
He that takes no holiday hastens \
long rest.
Ambitions ladder is always a runs
too short.
Hopeless poverty often appears in
a dress suit.
a man may mortiiy all, but can lie-
grace but one.
The snake may change its skin, but
keeps its teeth
The deepest grief does not peel MS
onions in public
You can't Judge the size of the hint
by that Of the howl.
Even death cannot repeal the laws
Of supply and demand.
Ii is easier TO hold an anaconda )
tail than a fools tongue,
Many fortunes have been lost in
hunting for an easy job.
Age never looks so wrinkled as when
it tries to appear young.
1t is a mighty sight harder to save
one dollar than to earn two.
God has created a hunger which
only Immortality can appease.
There is a great deal of self lmpot-
tance in a small bank account.
There are times when the fog HON
sounds swcet,r than the flute.
The small worries fill the most ears.
Everybody listens when the mosquito
sings
Some folks insist that miracles must
be counted among the few things that
improve with age.
Charity never mistakes superstition
for religion, bigotry for faith, or vcn-
geance for love.
Don't pride yourself on discovering
faults in Others. The hog soonc,t
finds the hole in the fence.
Slander has buzzards eye, a wolf
nose, yiper's tongue, bats wings, a
leopard's claws and a ravens voice.
The difference between a smile and
simper is that YOU want to shal"
hands with the one and to cuff the
other

Jim Duncan Could Talk.

The crowd had been talking OF cIo-
quent speakers, and Ingersoll, BourISe
Cochran, Depew, Taimage and other
notable orators had in turn been cham
pioned by their respective admlrcrF.
The old cattleman had been listening
to it all, and when the talked tagged
a little he asked ifanybody present bad
ever heard of jim Duncan. Nobody
had.
81 never heard any Of the fellows
YOU mentioned" said the cattleman,
"but ! wouldn't be afraid to back Jim
against any Of EN- fer persuadin' ways.
jim Duncan was a talker. I'll tell You
what he did one time just as a speci-
men. There was fellow named Bob.
Harris moved 10 Alllance-that was
the name of the town--and he had u
young wife and seemed to be pretty
well fixed. One day Harris was killed
uptown in row. Some five or six OF
US got together and tried TO figure 1t
out who was TO break the news TO his
wife. Squire Irwin, our justice OF the
neace was the oldest one among IA,
and we wanted him to 90, but he SAID
he'd rather face grizzly bear than
TO take such news as that 10 womal.
Finally we pitched on jim Duncan to
90 and tell her, he bein 80 handy
with his tongue, and jim said he was
willin' to do his best. He kind Of run
his fingers through his red hair, ,hitcbed
up his cravat, and went into Mr..
Harris house, while the rest Of us wait
ed at the corner. In about ID minutes
he came TO the door and called Squire
Irwin IN. We lowed the widow must
be cuttin up real sharp. In ten min.
utes more Jim came out 10 us.
How'd she stand it, JIM we
asked.
al guess It's pretty well smOothed
over, says Jim, and Mrs. Duncan and
me would like all Of you to come in
and have some refreshments.
Jim Duncan shore had persuadin'
tongue"

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years l have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, H., and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After SIX
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preJu-
dice against all patent medicines, l be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had l only used your SIS. long ago,
1 would have escaped years of misery
and saved over SI5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

Beetle as Und rtaker.

There is a species Of beetle in Aus
tralia which acts the roll Of energetic
undertakers that carefully bury car
cases left on the soil. As soon az they
smell a field mouse, mole or a fish in
a state Of decomposition, they come by
troops to bury it, getting under the
body, following out the ground with
their legs and projecting the rubbish
they dig out in all directions. Little
by little the carcass sinks, at the end
of twenty-four hours the hole is sever
al inches deep. They then mount 1t,
cast the earth down into the grave 20
as to ell it and hide the body from
sight. The females will then lay their
eggs in the tomb. where the larv@ will
afterward find an abundance Of food.

HAWAII AND CUBA.
What Senators Davis, Frye, and
Hale Say Thereon.

WASHINGTON, December 4-Sena tol
Davis, of Minnesota, chairman of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
was among the congressional arrivals to-
Gay. He stated that the Hawaiian an
nexation treaty would be taken up by the
Senate next Tuesday. and be considered
thereafter in executive session. AS 10 the
outlook for the ratification Of the treaty,
the Senator declined to express an opin-
ion, saying he had not canvassed the
situation since the treaty was laid aside
at the close OF tho extra session of Con-
gress. Mr.. Davi, Will not discuss the
Cuban question.
Senator Frye, OF Maine, who Is next In
rank to Mr.. Davis on the Committee on
Foreign Relations, is more outspoken as
to Cuba. He said to-day that he was in
favor of legislation favorable TO the in
surgents, and that he believed 1t would
be impossible TO prevent some such ex-
preston on behalf OF the United States
Senate.
On the other hand, Mr.. Hale who led
the fight against the Cuban resolution at
the last session, expresses confidence In
the conservative course of President Nc
Kinley on the Cuban situation, and feels
that this will have a material influence
in preventing agitation.
