For many years it has been claimed
that the ideal and proper way to select
public officers was 10 have the Office
seek the man, not the man the Office.
The Republican county ticket this
year is an ideal one. In every case
but one the office sought the man, and
80 that one exception the Liberal
is informed that the gentleman who
sought the nomination would not hay,
sought the Office If he had known thC
Offices were hunting men.

A party Of Spanish soldiers, landing
On the coaEt Of Florida to procure
fresh water. were alarmed by seeing
supposed shower .of leaves suddenly
become animated, jumping. walking,
autterinn ovor the ground. They lsft
declaring that the place was be-
witched. One Of them averred that
on their retreaxing the trees started
In pursuit.
How those brave men would have
stared had they been told that It was
only harmless insect that was at
the bottom OF II ALL
The Phillium scythe, on Leaf insect;
Leads sluggish life, making It's home
on the branches Of tree. Its body
Is vcry thin and FIAT, its large wings
shaped, veined and colored exactly like
q leaf, with petiole and stem complete.
In the summer It's wings are bright
green, but in the fall they change with
the deciduous leaves to brown, with
cred hue. It's hold upon the branch is
slight, puff Of wind being enough
to throw II upon the ground, when
It at once sets out to regain its home,
in such manner as terrified the Span
ish soldiers.
There is another race of leaf insects,
butterflies. While the upper surface of
their wings is bright, like a flower,
the lower resembles withered leaf,
with fungus-like blotches. Their fight
Is very swift, and they settle on twigs
only, never on leaf or flower.
When pursued and hard pressed the
leaf butterfly has q way of vanishing
as suddenly as full-fedged ghost.
In the. twipkling of an eye the insect
has become leaf, so far as it's pur-
suer is concerned. Settling on twig,
it folds its wings closely, backto back,
with the head and antenae hidden be-
meath them. The tiny tails of the
wings touch the twig, forming'a per-
feet stalk to the leaf, which is held in
place by the middle pair of feet. While
thus at rest the most observant eye
would not suspect it to be other than
\ withered leaf. - Philadelphia In

to Chamberlain's ColIc, Cholera
and Diarrhea Remedy, we were

The use of Revenne stamina.

Hon. NJ. P. Freeman, president
Of the Consolidated National Bank
says there seems to be quite a
general misconception in regard to
the kind of stamps that may be
used on bank checks, drafts, ETC.,
and TO correct this, asks US to make
the following explanation:
The only stamps that can be used
for this purpose are "documen-
tary" stamps, or such one and two
cent postage stamps as have been
converted into Internal Revenue
stamps by the government printing
on them the initials of these two
words, |. r.
Checks frequently come in hav-
ing on them postage stamps where
the drawer has attempted to usurp
a governmental function by stamp
ing or writing the letters /. r. on
the postage stamp. No one but
the government itself has the pow
er to convert a postage stamp into
a revenue stamp,
Another quite frequent mistake
is the use of proprietary" stamps
These are not available for this
purpose.
They can only be used on pro
prietary articles, patent medicines
etc., not on checks.
Proprietary stamps are distin
quished from documentary by the
word proprietary or documentary
engraved on the Stamp.
Remember that for checks yOl
can only use documentary rovenu,
stamps or I. r. postage stamps anc
doa't fail to cancel tho sta5p by
writing on It your initials and tn,
date. The year alone is sufhoien
for the date.
