Tired or unarreling With Conductors.
 Much amusement was afforded the passengers on a Onion station trolley car ill Portland by a businesslike passen- ger. who demanded receipt for his fare. Do you think I'm dishonest?" asked the conductor II don't know" replied the eccentric man. "I've never been on your car when it was crowded. :" After making many sarcastic remarks the conductor signed his name to the piece of paper handed him by the pas senger. The receipt was worded as fol- lows: Received 5 cents for fare from passenger riding from Elm street to Union station. On being asked why he wanted receipt, the man said he was getting tired quarreling with absent minded conductors, who frequently asked for the necessary nickel after it had been paid He also said that a few nights ago in Boston he had to get two passengers to prove that he had paid his fare. As the man was always placed in an embarrassing position on such occa- sions, he adopted the receipt method in order to save further trouble ill the fu- ture. .-Kennebec (Me. Journal.

II Is important that the nerves are care
fully guarded. Mothers who have young
daughters Of school age should watch their
health more carefully than their studies.
The proper development of their bodies
is Of first importance.
After the confinement Of the school
room, plenty Of outdoor exercise should
be taken. It is better that children never
learn their a, B, c's, than that by over
study they lose their health.
All this Is self-evident. Everyone ad-
naits it-everyone knows 1t, bot everyone
does not know how to build the health up

physicians falling at times.
