Twain and the other Man.

New York Sun: During Mark
Twain's stay i'm Vienna this winter
the newspapers have devoted a great
deal of attention to him. One of his
latest sayings quoted refers to a cable
dispatch he received from America
asking If the rumor of his death was
true.
News of my death greatly exagger-
ated" was the answer Mark Twain sent
back TO his own country.
So many rumors concerning his afs
fairs have been spread about that he
has written the following to n friend
In Hartford:
"Rumors about my unimportant self
are easily circulated. 1t was reported
that 1 was seriously sick-that was
some other man; then it was that 1
was about to die-again another man;
then it was that ! was dead-another
man again. Then the was that
/ had inherited a ~legacy-it was an
other man; then came the report that
| had paid all my debts-once more
another man. Now the is that
j am writing another book. l know
nothing of it. 1t would, indeed, sur
prise me il l should publish another
book for the next three years. The
only thing that is left for them to say
is that / have e~migrated permanently

one thing / will never, never do. | do
not want TO increase the confusion OF
languages any more"

A Vegetarian Church.

London Evening News; There is a
vegetarian church in Stafford of which
for the past eighty years no person
could be n member unless he or she
abstained from animal food and intoX-
icating drinks. Many of the members
also belong To the Peace society. The
late Joseph Brotherton, who was mem
Der of parliament for Stafford for about
twenty years, was a member of this
vegetarian church, and used to preach
when not in London. There was also
a vegetarian church in Manchester,
conducted by DIR. Schofeld for about
forty years, but at his death no sue
cessor could be found and it was closed
On that account and many of the mem
bers joined the church in Stafford. The
first member was Mr.. Coward, a mem

That her own may swiftly find her
And her life be brimmed with chcer.
A. she sands 90 face her future

But only one above us
May cast the horoscope
or this sweet daughter waiting
For the doors OF fate 20 upe.
Her steps may lead through deserts.
Through pathways steep and drear,
Or over desolate mountains.
Through many a lonesome year.
Yet, az We watch her standing,
Pure as a vestal4 dream.
Her eyes are as an angels.
And we may safely deem
The sweet maid sure OF finding
A life Of bliss and cheer.
And wistfully we greet her,
our pride, this latest year.

Determined to rise as an educator, Err.
nest X emper, of Pierceton, Ind, overtaxed
himself mentally and physically. He was
ambitious: his mind was always on his
work. From early morn until late at night
he continually pored over his books.
Few persons, even with the strongest
constitutions, can keep up under such a
strain.
In addition TO his studies, Mr.. Kemper
was teaching n school some three miles
from his home. Finally, his excessive
study and the exposure of going to and
from school in all kinds of weather under
mined his health.
He was taken TO his bed with pneu-

collapsed. For several weeks he was Sc
riously i'll.
Catarrh had taken root in his system
