Paris Fair.

The American exhibit at the Paris
Exposition will be an open volume,
whose lessons of skillfully directed en-
deavor, unfaltering energy and con-
summate performance may be read by
all, of every age. The United States
Government Building is about COM
pleted, and no effort has been spared
to make it worthy to represent our ma
tion. 1t was by the same American
perseverance, industry and unfaltering
energy, that Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters, the famous dyspepsia cure, was
first produced. Since that time, it has
never failed to perform its duty-the
cure of constipation, Indigestion, bill
iousness, malaria, fever and ague, liver
and kidney troubles. 1t is an excellent
tonic for the general health. All drug
gists sell it. There is nothing to equal
it,

rected defects, failure begins much SOON

your eyes. Neglect is bound to injsre
them.

thing is good glasses FITTED to their
defects. If you want the BEST at reason
able prices can supply them. Broken
Eye Glasses, Spectacles, Jewelry, Watch

Silver Party auspices, got in their
work. Be it remembered that these
were what constituted the following of
Wallace, holding Office by his grace,
basking in the sunshine of his smile.
and doing his bidding to the wink of
an eye.
They did not dare to oppose Bryan;
that would have meant the destruction
of their party, SO they said to the DEM
oeratic party: 1--WE won't go into your
ranks; we won't give up our organiza-
ton as we promised to. But we will
go into partnership with you. We will
put our 81 in with your $4,000 and
help you on the path to fame and for
tune, and in return will only take the
Congressman and Supreme Judge and
one of the three Electors.n The DEM
ocrats were complaisant-unwisely SO,
perhaps-and fusion was accomplished.
This is the fusion of which G. c. Wal
lace talks to-day with trembling tones
and tears in his eyes, while he indulges
in imprecations upon the ingratitude
of the Democrats.

paign of 1893 was on.

BUTTED EVERYWHERE.
The Much-DespIsed Goat Has Been
Known Since the beginning
of History.

The common or domestic goat was
originally native of the highlands
Of Asia. Naturalists generally regard
1t as having descended from an animal
found in the Caucausus mountains
and. the hill country of Persia. called
in the Persian language the pesang.
Its legs are longer tnan those of the
common goat, and its horns are very
much longer. The common goat has
existed as a domestic animal in
oriental countries from the very ear
hest times. From there il spread all
over the world. manifesting remark
able adaptabiity to climate and cir
cumstances. In this diversity Of sur
roundings great diversity of breeds
has appeared. such as the ARgora
goat. the Syrian goat. the Cashmere
goat, the Guinea goat of Africa, and
many others. No quadruped. except
the dog. has shown such susceptible
ity of variation. These differences
show most markedly in the quality
and quantity of the hair and in the
relative abundance of the two coats,
the long silky outer covering and the
softer woolly hair beneath it,
Among the Greeks and Romans, the
goat was sacrificed to Bacchus be-
cause OF its tendency to injure grape
vines by eating the young tendrils
and leaves. All the species of goats
are natives of the old world. The
Rocky Mountain goat. so-called, OF
North America. really belongs to the
antelope family.

JVN SOLD OVER AID OVER

Quandary over the PuHz!inS
Situation.

Somerville, Me-, is in a queer plight.
avs the Boston Herald. Farms have
been sold for delinquent taxes and the
property has been sold in this way
again and again. 40 one will serve
the town "a collector and even the
sheriff of the county cannot make the
people pay their taxes. This bank
IIpt town has valuation of 100000,
and owes about $30,O0O, which is half
the town is worth on a liberal yalua-
ton. Most of the town debt is in the
shape Of bonds, on which the interest
has not been paid for some time.
When. some years ago, the people
in the town got discouraged and gave
up paying taxes. the usual course Of
advertising and selling the property
at auction was pursued. But, and
this lends humorous feature TO the
case, the inhabitants of the town bid
in the property. And then, as the
years have gone by, the property has
regularly been sold and as regularly
bid in by the inhabitants. So all the
property has been sold over and over
again TO pay the taxes, and now all
the farms and the real estate in the
place stand thus:
1t has been bought in at nominal
sums by the inhabitants of the town,
and therefore the people are where
they started from. in reality. They
have raised no money by these opera
tions. 1t will puzzle a Philadelphia
lawyer to untangle and set in shape
the affairs of the town, mixed up as
they have Deen by this remarkable
