Opinion of an Eminent Jurist.

Ballot reform in New York was neces-
sary, says a eminent %iurist, because
mere politicians by trade, who had no
interest in government or politics except
to enrich and %aggrandize themselves,
sought perpetual control. There are
other excellent reforms besides that OF
the ballot. Conspicuous among them is
the reform in a disordered physical sys-
TEN by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters-
which counteracts tendencies to serious
disease bred by a deficiency of vital
stamina, irregularity of the bowels,
stomach, liver or kidneys, and inquitude
OF the nerves. This sterling medicine,
which has for zeal half a century won
popular favor, not only for its excellent
qualities in a remedial capacity, but
also for its seryiceable properties as a
medicinal stimulant.

Reflections Of q Bachelor

Pouring a little liquid over them will
never drown any sorrows.
When a girl is chased by a man who Is
trying to kiss her, she either crouches
down on the nearest sofa or runs into a
corner.
There is a woman at the bottom of all a
mans SUCCESS and two at the bottom of all
O mans trouble.
As soon as a girl thinks she owns a man
she begins to act hurt and displeased
when he doesn't put on an oyercoat when
It's cold out.
1t is always a puzzle to a woman how a
mar can do so much with his hands while
he has a cigar between his fingers.
The women nre probably going to wear
their hairi in a net OH the nape of the neck,
SO they will have more show to tell the
men they are always mussing up their
hair.
When a woman is just sick enough to
have to see people in a woolly wrapper
with a nightgown underneath, with lace
and baby ribbon OH her neck, she is said
to be IAN interesting invalid. New

THE MAN OF THE HOUR.

When water taps decline to flow
And hands are nipped and numb,
When kitchen boilers burst md blow
Our cooks to kingdom ON
When in u rooms are standing pools
Or rivers white with spate,
The plumber, with his bag Of tools.
Is master Of our fate.
He ON at ten, with double knock,
And thinks the matter DER.
He goes to dine at twelve o'clock
And comes again at four.
He shakes his head with knowing wag
And says he's found the leak,
Then, walking off with shouldered bag,
Returns another week.
0 plumber, calm and cool and sage,
How cogently you show
An ovesdriven, fevered age @
The art Of going slow.
Our eight hour champions to the rear
Must stink In shame away
Since you, more forward pioneer,
Embrace a two hours day.
