Encouraging Ambition.

"Why don't you cut down my cherry

The boy hung his head.
"What if l should discover that l "a

STA. 1t is the disordered stomach that
makes thin, impoverished blood, where
microbes of consumption flourish and null

ach which brings about conditions that
cause a hacking cough, sore throat, bron-
chitis, weak and bleeding lungs.
To make the foundation of your physical
structure solid; so that the rest of the or
CANS may successfully resist the attacks of
disease, nothing equals DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. This medicine is a
tonic, an appetizer, a blood purifier, a
nerve builder, a flesh maker, a foe to weak
ness and a blessing to worn out and rum
down humanity. 1t is a non-alcoholic
specific for every disease that comes in ad-
vance of consumption. 1t is a distinct
remedy and stands alone. Nothing is like
it, and there is no substitute for it. 1t has
a record of thirty years of cures.

1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear one suffer while awaiting
the arrival of the doctor. An Albany
On. W dairyman called at a drug store
there for a doctor to come and see his
child, then very sick with Group. Not
finding the doctor in, he left word for
him to come at once or his return. He
also bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, which he hoped would
give some relief until the doctor should
arrive. In a few hours he returned,
saying the doctor need not come, as the
child was much better. The druggist,
Mr.. Otto Scholz, says the family has
since recommended Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy to their neighbors and
friends until he has a constant demand
for it from that part of the country. For

One of the Troubles of a Rich Man.

According to his own admission,
Henry Willard, one OF the two sur
viving brothers of the three who were
famous in Washington hotel history
for third Of century, is in failing
health, although he is active as cat
on his feet and has every appearance
OF robust vitality. Henry Willard is
one OF the wealthy men of Washing
ton. He retired from active business
several years ago-that is to say, he
retired as much as he could, A day
or two ago a friend met him on the
street and inquired about his health.

ply. Il do not sep well. l toss all

board, with life-boat accommodations
for only 2l3.
In the meantime the men below, ig-
norant OF their extreme peril, were
passing buckets and singing What
the - do we car, while the ship
rolled helplessly on the ocean, with
matches closed.
The heat was lItense until the ty-
phoon passed, and then the Pekin,
which had retraced her course about
70 miles, came alongside the Ma
nausn.e. The latter ship was rolling
SO heavily that the soldiers in the
hold could at each roll see the Pekin
through the matches overhead.
Colonel Petit ordered the Ma
nauense to proceed to Guam and await
relief, but the captain of the Ma
nauense demurred, the officers say,
because the Government was renting
the ship for $500 day.
The engines were repaired, but
throughout the remainder of the voy-
age they failed frequently. The ship
would roll for few hours while the
engines were being re aired again for
few hours.
The meat and vegetables rotted be-
cause of the failure of the refrigera-
tors, and were thrown overheard. At
ter the storm the water supplied to
the ship at Honolulu had to be used
for the boilers. and there was little or
none for drinking
1t is said that during the last week
Of the voyage the men lived almost
entirely on whisky, beer and hard
tack.
The officers and soldiers were ut
terly exhausted when they reached
Manila 1t is said by the officers that
the behavior of the troops was beyond
praise. For days the men worked in
the dark, sutfocating hold, with water
sometimes up to their shoulders and
planks washing about in manner
dangerous to life and limb. The Of
fcers took the lead in bailing and en-
couraged the men.

Story Of an Old Virginian.

Patience is accounted rare quail
ity but it is particularly unusual in
man who has lost an arm in battle
and finds himself at middle age hand
icapped in the ordinary details Of life.
Ex-Gov. Frederick Holiday of Win
chester, Va, lost an arm while fighting
for the Confederscy.
Since the war he figured promi-
nenuy in Southern politics and trav-
eled widely in foreign countries. But
even more noticeable than his empty
sleeve was the evenness Of his temper.
Nothing ever ruflsd it, and for the
last 20 yeals he was never known to
speak a harsh word.
A few years ago one of the Cover
nor's friends asked him how he hap
pened to control hi, temper so well.
I'll tell you, said the Governor.
Before the war we owned slaves, and
the position Of a young master IN the
slave owning house i: something like
that of the heir apparent Of Euro
pean throne. Every want of mine
was anticipated. And if it wasn't, 1t
didn't take me very long to know the
reason why. was ruled by my tenn
per, and it was not pretty temper,
either. One day at dinner Gt was a
big dinner function) the butler,
who had grown gray in our family
service, failed to do something that |
wanted aim to DO, so threw knife
at him. 1t was a sharp, keenedged
knife, and fortunately it missed him,
but was sent with such force that 1t
was buried half way to the handle in
the wall The meal went on without
interruption. The next morning at
breakfast the knife still remained in
the wall
THAT knife, remarked my father,
'shall stay in the wall just where you
threw it, and the story Of your brutal
assault shall be told to every guest
who comes into this house until you
have mastered your temper.
The knife stayed there fully SIX
months because, as l said before, l
had temper, but before it was with
drawn l had learned the lesson Of
thoughtfulness aud patience. "

An English clergyman was walking
through the outskirts of his parish
one evening, when he saw one Of his
parishioners very busy whitewashIng
his cottage. The p4rsOn, pleased at
these somewhat novel signs OF clean
illness, called out, "Well, Jones, | see
you're making your house nice and
smart" With mysterious air, Jones,
who had recently taken the cottage,
descended from the ladder and slow
" walked to the hedge which separa-
ted the garden from the road. That's

DEATH THE LEVELER.

The glories of our blood and state
Are shadows. not substantial things;
There is no armour against fate:
Death lays his icy hand on kings:
Scepue and crown
Must tumble down.
And IN the dust be equal made
With the poor crooked scythe and spade.
Some men with swords may reap the field.
And plant fresh lsurels where they kill:
But their strong nerves at last must yield
They tame but one another still
Early or late
They stoop to fate
And must give up their murmuring breath
When they. pale captiyes, creep to death.
The garlands wither on your brow
Then boast no more your mighty deeds;
Upon Deaths purple altar now
See where the victor-victim bleeds:
Your heads must come
To the cold tomb;
Only the actions of the just
Smell sweet. and blossom in the dust.
