The Cycle Path of Life.

Let me moralize-and don't interrupt
ME unless you want to lend me money.
To-day we are an infant on the
wheel. held up by some friendly hand.
progressing slowly, filed with vague
fears and soothing syrup.
Tomorrow we can wobble little,
though We suffer many falls.
The next day our line is straigh;cr,
we call ourSelf "Wheelman," join the
L. A. W. and own the sidewalk.
Then comes our rapid youth. We
scocch-and sooner or later are laid up
for repairs.
Afterward we learn to ride more Sc
dately, and We think seriously Of life.
Now we begin to eschew the Solitary
path and seek the broad road where
two may ride abreast. We try and din
cover to our delight that We can ride
with one hand while the other encom-
passes the slender waist of a pretty
girl.
Then we enter the holy state of tan
dem riding. In sense We have to
learn to ride over again. There Is an
other period of wobbllng, but eventual.
ly we do as we'll as the rest.
Now comes the period Of caring ten
derly for smaller wheels.
Finally we become so expert that We
can ride the strait and narrow path.
And then We croak.-The Yellow

One TO the Taller.

When Poole, the famous tailor, was
an old man he was at Brighton on
vacation, and one afternoon went out
TO walk upon the pier. A young man
was also upon the pier with couple
of ladies, to whom he said, as he saw
Poole coming:
Now, you wouldn't take that good
looking man for q tailor, but he IS.
lust listen while I take him down q
notch or two. III tell him my coat,
which 1 have just had from him, doesn't
fit"
AS lie spoke Poole approached and po-
litely acknowledged the salutation OF
his customer, vino, walking up to him,
said: Here, Poole, now do take a look
at me. Does this coat fit"
Poole took in the situation. ut GER
tainly does not fit," said he, and pulling
ont a piece Of French chalk he proceed

all over, and then observed, with the

THE HOUSE.

61sr AY.-The Hawley bill increas-
ing the artillery force by two regiments
passed the House with three dissenting
votes. Cannon introduced bill today
appropriat;ng $50. 900. 900 to be used at
the discretion of the President for the
national defence. 1t seems that the
House is expecting trouble, and is max
ing preparations for it.
GID DAY.-In spirit of patriotism,
with eloquent words ringing in their
ears. every member of the House of
Representatives responded to the Pres
ident's first call to meet the Spanish
situation by casting his vote for bill
placing in President McKinley's hands
$50, 900, 900 to be expended at his discre-
ton for national defence. Party lines
were swept away, and with a unani-
nous voice Congress voted its
confidence in the administration.
Many member who were paired
with absent colleagues took the
responsibility of breaking their pairs,
an unprecedented thing in Legislative
annals, in order that they might go on
record in supper. of this vast appro-
priation to maintain tine dignity and
honor of their country. Speaker Reed,
who as the presiding officer. seldom
votes except in case of tie, had his
name called and voted in his capacity
as Representative. The scene of en-
thusiasm which greeted the announce
ment of the .vote-ayes, 81; nays none
has seldom been, paralleled in the
House.
GID DAY. The House devoted itself
to routine business. The legislative,
judicial and executive appropriation
bill went through its last stages in the
adoption OF the final conference report,
and the remainder of tho day was con-
sumed in the consideration of the SEN
ate amendment to the Indian appro-
priation bill.
GATH DAY.-Ip the House the Senate
amendment to the Indian appropriation
bill was voted down. The naval ap-
preparation bill has been practically
completed by the House committee on
naval affairs, save as to the question OF
increases in the navy, dry docks and
armor plate. There have been few
changes from the estimates, and the bill
will involve in the neighborhood OF
$50, 900, 900, aside from new vessels, dry
docks and armor.
65TH DAY.-The bill to pay the Bow
man act claims, aggregating $1,000, 600
for stores and supplies furnished the
Union army during the war, was before
the House until o'clock, but beyond
completing the general debate, little
progress was made. Of the 500 odd
claims in the bill all but q
few come from the South and
dilatory tactics were resorted to
to prevent progress with the bill.
In speech favoring the bill, Mr.. Glib
son, Rep of Tennessee, said the
claims were distributed as follows by
States: Alabama, co: Arkansas, Sc;
Georgia, 40; Illinois, l; Kansas, 3; Ken
tucky. Sc; Louisiana, %; Maryland, 70;
Mississippi, 1C9; Missouri, col: New

An Exchange OF Twins.

Besides the ordinary rent paid to the
landlord, 1t used TO be customary IN
the Highlands for the tenant to give &c
his master one of the calves or lambs il
1t happened that cow or eve should
bring forth twins. This seems little
hard, but the gain was not all on one
side, for the master was obliged If the
wife Of any Of his tenants happened TO
have twins. to take one Of the babies
and bring it up in his own family. AS
cases of twins happened once in every
sixty-nine births. this adoption by the
master must have been fairly fire.

An Overworked Brain.

From the Record. P:erceton, Ind.
Determined TO rise in his chosen pro-
fession as an educator, Ernest Kemper, OF
Piereeton, Ind, oyertaxed himself men
tally and physically. He was ambitious,
his mind was always on his work. From
early morn until late at night he contin-
ually pored over his books.
Few persons, even with the strongest
constitutions, can keep up under such i
strain.
In addition to his studies, Mr.. Kemper
was teaching a school some three miles
from his home. Finally, his excessive study
and the exposure Of going to aud from
school in all kinds OF weather undermined
his health.
He was taken to his bed with pneumonia
and his overworked brain almost collapsed.
For several weeks he was seriously i'll.
catarrh had taken root in his system and
