At Least Pat Thought So, and He Accord

ingly Took 1t.
He was a big Irishman, and his name
was Pat. He was fixing the telephone
wires and whistlins to himself as he
worked. just then an expressman came
driving down the street like Jehu. Pat
made a fatal mistake. Instead of attend
ing to his own business, he tried to work
and watch the reckless driver at the same
line The consequence was that he did
\ neither. What he did do was to lose his
Iootlng. There was a cry of horror from
the bystanders below, echoed by a lusty
yell from above:
Every breath was suspended, and then
a shout OF relief went up from the crowd.
Pat had made a frantic dive for the wire
and had caught 1t.
"Hold on, PATTI shouted some one who
knew him. "Wo will get you down some
how!' But the speaker stood stock still,
wringing his hands.
nun up town for a mattressp' yelled
n intelligent individual.
"Get a ladder from somewherel" bawled
another. Nobody seemed to know just
whereabouts ''somewhere'' was, and no
one acted upon this suggestion.
somebody do something ~ commanded
a ph1lanthropic looking individual indig-
nantly. 1.-The mar can't hold on forever!
l say, do somethingl' he shouted, getting
very red in the face and dancing around
excitedly.
Only n man in the crowd did not say
anything. He was busy climbing up the
telephone pole.
The excited crowd condescended to no.
tice him finally and saw his intention.
The mixture Of foolishness and relief Oh
its collective face was amusing.
"Hold on, Pat; help is ooming!' they
shouted with one voice.
Then a wave of horror swept over the
crowd. The MAJ suspended between the
earth and heaven suddenly loosened his
hold and fell backward, striking the
ground with a sickening thud.
"Ho is dead" groaned the crowd, and
men covered their faces from the sight.
But he wasn't. An Irishman has as
many lives as a cat. When Pat came to
and sat up dizzily, trying to realize that
he was once more on terra firlna, some one
said to him:
"What did you let go for, Pat? Why
didn't you hold OH a little longer?"
"Be jabersF' replied Pat earnestly, sol
was afraid the wire would break !"-San
Francisco Examiner.

Ven vs. Scolds.
Venus, calling TO her side
All her rosy Cupids,
Thus addressed them: Little boys,
You are simply stupids!
"Can you not most plainly see
You are wasting honey2
What the world most worships now
Is the god Of money?
"Throw aside your pretty bows
Get you buxom purses,
Jingle ever in their ears
Gold instead of verses.
"And those tender, downy wingsi
Come. and ! will shear them!
You must dress as others do
Or not venture near them.
"LoveY Love? Why, that is ancientl
Just n foolish passionl
You can please your customers
But to be in fashion.
"Hence, away, you simple sprites!
Cease you-cease your cryingl
This, sirs, is the golden age
OF selling and Of buying!"

Mind Reading.

The really extraordinary performance
of mind readers of celebrity astound all
who witness them. Scientists cannot
explain them. Hamlet eXclaims, "There
are more things in heaven and earth,
HOratio, than are dreamt of in thy
philosophy" The wonderful feats of
the mind reader are strongly %corrobora-
tive of this, But the reason of the
beneficent effects of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters in cases of dyspepsia, malaria,
rheumatism, biliousness, nervousness
and kidney and bladder complaint, does
not require and will not provoke in
v~estigation. We know that the medicine
does effect thorough cures in obstinate
cases. that it does prevent the diseases
to which it is adapted. Used with
persistency it will re-establish health.

Bad management keeps more people ir
poor circumstances than any other one
cause. To be successful one must look
ahead and plan ahead so that when q
favorable opportunity presents itself he
is ready to take advantage of it. A lit
tie forethought will also ave much ex
pense and valuable time. A prudent
and careful man will keep q bottle OF
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy in the house, the shiftless
fellow will wait until necessity compels
it and then ruin his best horse going for
a doctor and have a big doctor bill to
pay, besides; one pays out Is cents, the
other is out a hundred dollars and then
wonders why his neighbor is getting
richer while he is getting poorer. Fol-
