Kind Hearted Empress.

A pretty story is told of the German
Empress. During the recent manoeu-
vres of the army in Westphalia Her
Majesty was accustomed to drive every
day through neighboring village
There was poor old widow in the vii
lage who had been confined to her bed
for some years, but learning that the
Empress often passed her little house
she made violent effort to reach the
window. She failed in her attempt
but her anxiety to see the Empress be-
came talked about in the village, and
finally reached Her Majesty's house,
hold and at last the Empress herself.
One morning the old woman heard a
commotion at her door; there was a
knock, followed by footsteps, and then
a gracious womanly presence entered
her room and a gentle voice said 81
am the Empress, my friend. l am told
that you wish to see me-" Her Majesty
sat by the bedside and talked to her a
long while, and left a present when
she went away.
s'Kind hearts are more than coro-
nets.n

He was a Mining Promoter.

A fellow who travels under the ro-
mantle name.of b. Bier Remper showed
up in Placerville Sunday and COM
menced batting his little hooks. He
put up at the Central and said that he
represented a large mining company
of Mason Valley, New. On the strength
of this representation he borrowed 30
cents of M. F. Burke, the proprietor,
and went out for more worlds to con-
quer. Being mining man, he needed
supplies, of course, SO he went to
Alderson's hardware store, ordered a
$3.50 bill of goods through clerk and
borrowed dollar.
Then he needed machinery, SO he
went to the Placerville Foundry, where
he claimed to be the originator of the
Big Tunnel scheme which was popular
here some years ago. He ordered s.
stamp mill at the foundry and bor-
rowed another dollar till the superin-
tendent of the mine, a wealthy resident
of Cleveland, Ohio, should arrive on
Monday evening. He applied to James
Blair Jr. for some large windows and
said they were just what he wanted
that he would be back to order them.
He was TO have two six-horse teams
in town Monday night to take his va
rious purchases across the Tahoe Road
to Nevada. In the meantime, how
ever, the Placerville firms got to COM
pairing notes and II. s. Morey of the
foundry had the fellow arrested for OBJ
tanning money under false pretences.
He was taken before Justice Carpenter,
plead guilty and claimed to have been
drunk. He was fined $50 with the
alternative of fifty days in Jail, and he
chose the latter, evidently having no
money except what he had borrowed.
1t is said that he has been working
other places in the same way Placer

Able to Hear It.

1t is well known that Joseph Medill
of the Chicago Tribune was somewhat
deaf, although his ability at times to
hear what was said in an ordinary tone
of voice was frequently remarked.
It is related of him that he dropped
into the bueiness department of the Of
flee one day to make an inquiry about
something that had occurred to him,
and a young man who had been in his
employ only a few months undertook
in loud tone of voice to enlighten
him.
"What did you say?' asked Mr.. Me-
dill, putting his hand TO his ear.
The young man repeated the an
swer In still louder voice.
81 can't hear you," said the editor.
"0h, chase yourself around the block,
you old grannyp muttered the impa-
tient employee just above his breath.
II am not an old granny" said Mr..
Medill, turning away, land I shall not
chase myself around the block.n
The fresh young man made imme-
diate arrangements to say goodby to
his job, but the great editor probably
thought that the lesson he had received
was sufficient and did not disturb him.

A Queer Request.

A man came to town yesterday and
went to a physician, saying that he
wanted wound made in his right side
and another one in his back. He said
he knew the request was funny one,
"but,v said he, 81 am all right in the
upper story, and do not want you to
ask why l made such a peculiar re-
quest, but l want it DONE" The man
was in good health. sound mentally
and physically, and apparently in good
spirits. Another doctor was called,
the mans back and side frozen, the
operation performed and the fellow
took the train for the East last night
apparently happy.-Reno Gazette.

What Not to Say.

Do not say, 81 can't eat" Take
Hoods Sarsaparilla and say, II am
hungry all the time, and food never
hurts me-"
Never say to your friends that you
are as tired in the morning as at night.
If they happen to be sharp they will
tell you Hoods Sarsaparilla cures that
tired feeling.
Do not say, my face is full of pim-
plesn You are quite likely to be told
by some one, There's no need of that,
for Hoods Sarsaparilla cures pimples." "
1t is improper and unnecessary to
say, "My health is poor and my blood
is bad" Hoods Sarsaparilla will give
good blood, and good health will fol-
low as a natural consequence.
