Tough on the Hog.

"Men are just like hogs, how
ever distasteful that may sound to
hogs" saysa writer in an exchange.
"When a hog gets an ear of corn,
every hog will trot along him and
squesl and whine for a bite, but
just let the front hog get caught
with it's head fast in a crack and
every son of a SOW will jump on
him and tear him to pieces; just
80 with men. As long as a man is
prosperous and has money he can't
keep friends off with a baseball
bat. The moment he is unfortu-
nate and his wealth is gone he is
not only snubbed by former alleg-
ed friends, but they at oncesbegin
to do him all the harm possible.
When man starts down grade
the world steps aside and greases
the track" States.

HIGH PRAISE.
States.

States.
To the credit of the representa-
tives of every European power who
witnessed the military operations
at Santiago be it said, they have
borne willing testimony to the
gallantry of our soldiers, volun-
teers and regulars, on that strick-
en- field, whatever of censure they
may have had for the mismansge-
ment of certain officials. The New
York World quotes brief extracts
from the London National Review,
which characterizes the charge as
zone of those brilliant escapades
which could not occur in any but
an American army. "Without con-
sultation or any direct orders from
headquarters" the Times corre-
spondent says "the troops simply
rushed the Spanish works and
took them at a cost Of a thousand
lives in their own ranks The
fighting qualities of the men are
here shown at their best. There
was very little attempt to preserve
any order or keep regiment separ-
ate. Indeed, I think only one re-
giment, the Sixteenth infantry,
kept together and went up the hill
in anything alike regular order.
The remainder made their rush
with only the idea of reaching the
Spaniards."
This expert English observer
adds: ITO ask infantry soldiers
to charge up to trenches over open
ground when the enemy is secure
ly protected and armed with ma
gazine rifle means that the COM
manding officers must have very
great faith in their men. But how
much more must this be the case
when your men are dismounted
cavalry armed only with carbines!
Cavalry and infantry in this case
never faltered. They made their
charge, gained the trenches and
wrested them from the Spaniards."
"And this" adds the World, ''is
the matchless valor which after
ward fell victim to the incapacity
of the War Department"

FOOLED THE PREMIER.
AD Experiment Which Made Matters
Worse Than They Had Been.

An Experiment Which Made Matters
Worse Than They Had Been.
A story, the truth Of which is vouch-
ed for in high quarters, is told concern
ing the manners" of the political mem
bers of small country renowned for its
ancient courage The prime minister
gave reception to meet some distin-
guished Englishmen. The assemblage
consisted solely of the strangers, the
members of the parliament and the
prime minister During the course Of
the evening one Of the more distinguish
ed of the English guests discovered that
his watch had been taken He went to
his host and informed him of his loss,
adding that ne especially priced the
watch, as it was present to him from
the king of the country whose guest he
had the honor to be at that moment.
The prime minister saw at once that
there was only one thing to be done,
and, asking for silence, explained the
situation to the company. He said that
no doubt some one had yielded to the
temptation of the moment, but that
when they learned that the missing ar
ticle was the gift of their king he was
sure their loyalty, if nothing else, would
prompt them to restore it to its owner.
In order that the culprit's honor might
be preserved and the country saved from
a scandal, he said, the lights would be
lowered for five minutes and the guests
would defile past the writing table,
which would give an opportunity for
the delinquent to place the watch there
Upon this the room was darkened for
the stipulated time On the lights being
turned up it was found that the watch
had not been placed on the writing ta-
BILE, but that valuable silver inkstand,
also gift Of the king to his prime min
lister, was missing as well-London

Up a Church steeple.

Two Triggers in western city few
years ago performed feat that for dar-
ing and steadiness of nerve equals any
thing on record.
Repairs were necessary at the top of
very high church steeple. There was
no way to reach the spot from the in
side, and the ringers procured number
of light ladders and dashed them, one
above the other, to the outside of the
steeple. The topmost ladder, however,
was not high enough to enable them to
reach the desired spot, and as the upper
part of the steeple was too small to per-
NIT the proper flashing to it of ladder
a daring expedient was resorted to-
One of the men, carrying pot of
melted solder, climbed from one ladder
to another until he had reached the last
one, and then, bracing himself, he rails
ed an extra ladder that the other rigger
had brought up in his hand and leaned
it against the steeple. Then the man be-
low grasped this ladder and held it
steady while the man above mounted it
to the point where his work was to be
done. He began the work at once, and
all promised well till suddenly he jos.
tied the solder pot, and the fiery stuff
ran out and fell over the hands of the
man who was holding the ladder.
But the brave fellow did not move.
With presence of mind and courage
worthy of monument he maintained
firm hold of the ladder until his COM
panion could come down from his peril

On Going to had Hungry.

All animals, except man, eat before
sleeping, and there is no reason why
man should form an exception to the
rule Fasting during the long inter
val between supper and breakfast, es-
pecially the complete emptiness of the
stomach during sleep, adds greatly to
the amount of emaciation, sleeplessness
and general weakness so often met with.
1t is well known that in the body there
is perpetual disintegration Of tissue,
sleeping or waking. 1t is therefore
natural to believe that the supply Of
nourishment should be somewhat con-
tinuous especially in those in whom
the vitality is lowered.
As bodily exercise is suspended dur
ing sleep, with wear and tear CORE
spondingly diminished, while digestion,
assimilation and nutritive activity con-
tinue as usual, the food furnished dur
ing this period adds more than is de-
stroyed, and increased weight and i'm
proved general vigor is the result If
the weakly, the emaciated and the sleep
less were to take nightly light meal Of
simple, nutritious food before going to
bed for prolonged period, they would
be raised to better standard Of health.
1t has been our experience that after
digesting bowl of bread and milk or a
saucer of oatmeal before going to bed.
for a few months, surprising increase
in weight, strength and general tone has
resulted. This course is not recommend
ed to those persons who are stout and
plethoric. New York Ledger.

thought he had something as good as

accent fresh from Inter den Linden,
his suit and his boots spick and span,
his manner full of dignity and method.
"They say have not money enough, !"
he argued, "but / have brand new

marks, and l have not worn it more
than four or five times. You wish to
see it? Well, anyhow, it is worth at
