that the hitherto beloved swish and

none of them. Of course they will be
bought and worn. but it will be by

The National Advertiser tells story
of an old bachelor who bought pair of
socks and found attached to one Of
them slip of paper with these words:
IL am a young lady of 20 and would
like to correspond with bachelor, with
view to matrfmony." Name and ad-
dress was given. The bachelor wrote,
and in few days got this letter:
mamma was married 20 years ago.
The merchant you bought those socks
from evidently did not advertise or he
would have sold them long ago. Mamma
handed me your letter and said possibly
j might suit you. am IS years old"

weakens our aim. Under the guise OF
helping us to bear the present. and to
be ready for the future, worry multi
plies enemies within our mind to sap
our strength. Worry is the dominance
of the mind by a single, vague, restless,
unsatisfied, fearing and fearful idea.
The mental energy and force that
should be concentrated on the sue.
cessive duties of the day is constantly
and surreptitiously distracted and alb
sorbed by this one fixed idea. The
full, rich strength of the unconscious
working of the mind, that which pro-
duces our best success, that represents
our finest activity, is tapped, led away
and wasted on worry. Worry must not
be confused with anxiety, though both
words agree in meaning, originally, a
choking" or a ''strangling," refer
ring, of course, to the throttling effect
upon individual activity. Anxiety
faces large issues of life seriously,
calmly, with dignity. Anxiety always
suggest hopeful possibility; it is &C

ures to meet. the outcome. Worry is
not one large individual sorrow; it is
a colony of petty, vague, Insignificant
restless imps of fear, that become i'm
portant only from their combination
their consistency, their iteration. z

BELIEVE IN EXPANSION.
Bode Brothers, the Furniture Men, Will
Enlarge Their Store.

There is one firm in the city of Ke-
nosha that believes in expansion, and
that is the firm of Bode Brothers,
dealers in furniture and household
goods. Only few years ago this was
one of the smallest mercantile houses in
the city, but today it is the largest
house of the kind between Milwaukee
and Chicago. From single store room
with small stock of furniture the
business has been enlarged until today
the firm find their present quarters OF
two large rooms entirely inadequate for
their growing demands and they have
decided to rent the whole second floor
above their rooms for the enlargement
of the business. The rooms on the
second floor will be fitted up at once
and will be used for showing furniture,
carpets and crockery. The changes Of
the business will greatly add to the
facilities of Bode Brothers for showing
their stock and will give them chance
to almost double the large assortment
of furniture and house fittings now
carried BIO them. The people of Keno
sha should appreciate the fact that this
firm is making every effort to please
the people and are carrying stock
large enough to please the most fas-
tidious. In the future if you are in
need of anything in their line don't run
off to Chicago, but give them a chance
to show you their goods. Bode Bros.
deal at home and they should receive
the patronage of at least part of the
Kenosha traders.

A PERILOUs RIDE.
Robert Kupfer Gives Main Street People
Lesson in Nerve Power.

Robert Kupfer, the little son of Harry
Kupfer, the liveryman, had ride for
his life with a runaway horse about
O'Clock Wednesday afternoon. The
boy had gone to the North side. at the
order OF his father to return a rented
horse to the stable. He had ridden a
bicycle over and when he started to.
drive back he placed the wheel in the
buggy in front of him. All went we'll
until he reached the railroad track on
Main street. Here the horse became
frightened at a switch engine and
started TO run away. Handicapped by
having the bicycle in the buggy with
him young Kupfer was not able to stop
the horse and he was soon running at
the top of his speed.
AS the horse ran down the street the
people rushed out and everyone expect
ed to see the little fellow thrown from
the rig and either killed or seriously
injured. Everybody shouted instruc-
tions to the boy, but he was not hear
ing them. He had determined to hold
the horse in check and made great
effort. He drove down Main street
with the horse running at it's full speed,
but he held him in check so we'll that
Notwithstanding the fact that the street
was crowded with bicycles and buggies
not once did the running horse collide
with vehicle.
The perilous ride of the little boy
ended near the livery stable, where,
with a superhuman effort for one so
small he threw the frightened horse. A
great crowd rushed up expecting to find
the boy seriously injured, but he was
not in any way hurt. He held on to
the horse until it was secured by the
men from the stable, and then left the
buggy as if nothing had happened and
Caking out his bicycle he walked into
the barn.
