A Hero as Homo.

Not all the heroes were at Santiago.
One Of them came forward recently In
Topeka, when the Santa Fe Railroad
found 1t necessary to reduce the force
employed in the freight department.
Among those who >were to be dis
charged was a man with a wife and
half a dozen children, and his salary
was the family's only income. Lines
appeared In his face as the expiration
of his term of service drew near, and
his eyes told a story Of suffering and
despair.
Dean Waters, a fellow emplOye, saw
all this. 1t made him sick at heart. and
his folks saw that something was the
matter. but he kept his thoughts to
himself For a week he watched the
other workman suffer in silence. and
at night he could not sleep for thinking
OF the hardships in store for this mans
wife and little ones. Then he made q
resolve. Going to the head Of the de-
partment, he said:
"If l resign my position. will you
keep Mr.. BlankT'
YES" replied the head Of the depart
ment.
Accept my resignation" said Wa
ters and he left the room without an
other wOrd.-TOpeka Capital.

For Players and Typewriters

In this age of wear and tear on the
nerves anything to save them from
shock Is a great help. Scientists have
Invented a rubber thimble to protect
the fingers in piano playing and type
writing. The tips Of the fingers are not
only nerve-centers. but one of the most
sensitive parts of the body. Conse-
luently the finger nerves receive many
severe shocks in practicing or type
writing. The new thimbles are made
of rubber, to fit the ends of the fingers
like gloves, and will lessen the shock to
the nerve centers. The speed also Is
increased 10 per cent. by their use. 1t
is certain that the ends of the fingers are
kept from becoming callOus and the
nails from splitting.

WHY WOMEN DON'T MARRY.

Ressons Given by One Who Knows
the Men of To-day.
There is a good deal Of discussion
marry In fact one would almost imag-
inc that 1t is only the men who marry
nowadays. There Is a reason for 1t, of
course, and there seems to be an effort
on the part Of many to find 1t out. Some
say it is because she Is too vain," 9th
ers that she is too extravagant." "too
mercenary," too modern" However.
Winifred Black throws a few interest
ing side lights on the subject, many of
says:
The modern woman doesn't marry
because the right man doesn't ask her.
Women to-day are just as anxious to
oe married as their grandmOthers were;
sensible, honest women are living to-
day, and the man who wants to marry
one Of them can do so, but they are not
looking for that kind of woman. A
man falls in love with an empty-head-
ed. heartless doll for her pretty face,
and then complains because he finds
the dolls head is hollow. When a man
chooses a sweetheart because she
wears dead swell clothes, and then
falls to lamenting over the cupidity Of
woman when that same girls asks him
what his revenue is before she decides
about loving him he Is not quite as logi-
cal as he might be. Now, is he, really !
ANY woman worth marrying will
marry the man she loves even II he
can't scrape up money enough to pay
the minister. She may not be happy
with him after she marries him, but It
will not be his poverty that makes her
miserable. The great law Of natural
selection holds it's sway with the just
as well as with the unjust. You can't
educate the human nature out of a
woman any more than you can refine
1t out of a man.
"A master of the science Of economics
will elope with an extravagant creature
just as quickly as proud, high-temper-
ed woman will mysteriously fall in love
with a stupid nobody. Dan Cupid,
Esq, has gone out Of fashion, but he
isn't dead, not by any manner of
means, and never will be. Men put
women on a pedestal, but they set the
pedestal In the mud.
"A woman's friends hear Of her mar
riage with a sigh Of relief. A mans
friends hear Of his marriage with s
gasp Of incredulity."

IN HEALTH is HAPPINESS.

1t is a matter of fact that the elec-
tro-magnetism has an eminent cura-
tive power, which has given many suf-
ferers relief and recovery. We call
therefore the attention Of our readers
to the advertisement of Mr.. Louis
STREET.. No. Al East Third street, New
York city. which is printed in another
column. He offers an electromagnetic
Volta Cross of Star at an extremely low
price. which enables even the poor to
enjoy the benefit of the electro-mag-
netic curative power. Those Volta
Crosses or Stars have been patented
by both the Austrian Hungarian and
German governments and have met In
a very short time with the enormous
sale of more than five millions, in Eu-
rope, and numerous grateful testimon-
ials of cured people are open to the
public for inspection.

HE BALANCED THE ACCOUNT.

Young Lawyer Gets Even with an Old
Phys,cian who Tricks Him.
A physician, and a lawyer occupying
rooms in the same large downtown
building met not long ago In the lobby.
The lawyer has only had his shingle
out for six months, while the physician
has been practicing for many years.
Consequently the physician is inclined
to use condescending manner toward
the young lawyer. and the young law
yer respects the physician as a man
who has made his mark.
You should do something for that
cold" the physician said.
''What?" asked the lawyer respect
fully, from force of habit.
The physician made few remarks
about the treatment of colds as they
rode up in the elevator The other day
the lawyer received bill for services
rendered" him by the physician. BY
this time he had forgotten that he ever
had cold or that he had met the ply
sician nd listened to advice on colds be-
cause it is polite to do SO. With the
bill in his hand he sought out the ply
sician, who explained the matter. say
ing he need not pay it at once unless it
was convenient for him. Not wishing
to make an enemy Of the young lawyer,
he talked of business and business diff
culties for half an hour. drawing the
young man out and giving him chance
TO talk.
The next day the physician received
check for 81 in payment of the bill
sent the young lawyer. accompanied
by a bill with the lawyers name across
the top, which called for SO for half
an hours consultation the day before.
The physician promptly paid.-Chicago
