| know men in this city whose strug-
gle to save a dollar for 4 rainy day is
pathetic, says a writer in the New
York Press. Theirs is a generous ma
ture. They take an occasional toddy,
perhaps, and being treated must treat
back. With money in pocket this Is
an easy accomplishment, and money
flies when four or five good fellows get
together in front of the bar. There are
close-fsted scalawags who will be
treated all day and never come back at
you, but they generally wear out their
welcome. They have big voices and
impress strangers with their apparent
goodfellowship. The man who stands
his treat right along has old r. e.
Morse sitting on his pillow every
morning, after he has slept OFF his
drunk. When he looks at his empty
poCketbook, he makes VOWS, saying:
Great Scott! If God will only forgive
ME this time I'll swear I'll quit! |
don't mean that I'll quit drinking en-
tirely, but I'll quit hanging out
at bar-rooms and treating fellows who
are Of no earthly good to me-"

Without dandruff there is no falling

We watched it as though fascinated.
Up, up, it crept. 1t had now reached

dren. They were terror stricken, chung

hurrican or the water were awful. but

We dared not hope yet. soon it was

terrible till 10 p. m. At 1880 it stop
ped. Then we looked out. Houses
and roofs were floating by. The hur
ricanc had passed but there was still
wind enough to lash the water to the

we could not see it, We knew hundreds
were drowning around us.
