Farmer Is getting too Strong to Work.
You can't make him use a Walking
Plow any more. He plants his Corn
with a Check-Row Machine, lifts his
Hay with a Patent Fork, cuts his
Grain with a Self Binder that has a
Bundle Carrier attached and then puts
1t through a Steam Thrasher that cuts
the Bands, does the Feeding, measures
the Grain and dumps it into the Wag-

The Young Man got busy with his

Mrs. Dyer's Heart.

McCarron, Mich, Oct. 21.-In April
last the sensational case Of Mrs.
Samuel G. Dyer Of this place was re-
ported in these columns. Mrs. Dyer
has suffered for years with a very bad
case of Heart Trouble and was cured
in a few weeks by Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Since then Mrs. Dyer has received
hundreds Of inquiries as to her condi-
ton, and many may be interested to
hear that she is at present enjoying the
best Of health and has not had the
slightest return Of the Heart Trouble.
Formerly she had to sit UP in bed for
hours to get relief; 0 she gees about
as smartly as any lady of G2 years in
the State. Dodd's Kidney Pills have
made many friends in Chippewa
County through their cure of Mrs.
Dyer's case, and have proven beyond
doubt that their cures are not only
very complete, but absolute and per
manent.

Ing the Buy, they wondered how much
his Wife had given him that Morning.
1t was supposed that he had to turn in
Vouchers every Saturday Night.
Not being of Noble Birth, it ground
the Poor Man to know that he was
supposed to tease his Allowance. He
wished hat he was back on Salary and
paying his own Bills, sometimes.
One day he and the Bank Account
had u little Tiff n she reminded him
that it was her Money. That was the
Last Straw. He told her to taxi back
her Gold and then he went out into the
Night.
For three Days she had the .Detec-
tives searching for him, but they found
him not. He was out in the Suburbs
working Incog as a Day Laborer at
$1.25 per. When he had accumulated
$3.75 on which there was no faint, he
came back to Town and bought himself
a large symmetrical Jag. Being thor
and just as he came under the Porte
Cochere he pulled up a Hitching Post
and heaved 1t through the Side Door,.
Then he announced in a Loud Tone hat
everything he had with him was his
own and that he was a Rooster from
the High Hills. He chased old Wax
Works, the Butler, the full length Of
the Conservatory and threw the French
Maid into a Dead Faint. Then he made
the boss Bluff Of going up to his Room
to pack his Things. His Wife came
n apologized for being SO well off and
cried on his Shoulder and at last he lis
toned to Reason.
But after that she had to go slow
for fear he would get mao and go back
to Work.
MORAL: Goad a Man to Despera-
ton and he is liable to go to any
Length.

Postponed.

Life: 1t was l o'clock in the morning.
In the deepest shadow Of the piazza of
the little suburban villa in which our
story opens sat two burglars, earnestly
discussing the affair that had brought
them hither. A light in one Of the upper
windows, which had only just been ex-
tinguished, had made them postpone for a
while their attempt and this delay had
given the first burglar an opportunity to
ass his partner the circumstances which
hao let to this particular graft.
THE lady who occupies this house,
whispered the second burglar, has s1O,-
Coo in cash. She drew 1t out of the bank
yesterday, and tomorrow she will turn it
over to the old and trusted friend of her
late husband"
who is he?" asked the first burglar.
Hes an old COW they've koDwn all
their lives. He's going to advise her how
to invest her money. In the meantime,
she's got 1t all upstairs with her in a
black bag"
The first burglar was silent for a
while.
Tom" he said at last. 81 haven't the
heart to do it. She's a widow. Let's
wait"
"Wait!" exclaimed the second burglar.
For what?"
why" said his companion, wait until
the old cove has it. Then rob him.

Youths Companion: On good authority
soldiers like best to be differed by gen
tlemcn. but they hav their choice OF the
type. OF the right kline was General
Crawford, the leader Of the light divis-
ion.
An incident In his career during one of
the wellington wars shows him to have
been rich In that Justice which commands
respect from equals and loyalty from in
f~eriors: In a word. he kept discipline
without regard to rank.
His division was crossing a ford on one
OF the Spanish marches, and an officer.
&c keep his breeches dry. rode through on
a soldiers back. Crawford observed the
thing with disgust and In u minute was
%aplashing through the water after them
both.
Put him down, sir" he shouted. Put
him down! ! desire you to put that Of
lcer down ~ingtantly."
The soldier dropped his burden and
went on.
Return back. SIR" Crawford said to
the officer, and go through the water
like the others. / will not allow my Of
ficers to ride on the mems backs through
the rivers: all must take their share alike

After he had completed the Work

So he invited the Friend to Dinner and
all u~nbeknownst to him had the self
registering Dewficker attached to the
Chair.
The Dinner passed off famously and
the Friend was unusually lavish in his
Praise of the Repast. After the Friend
had departed, the Inventor examined
the Cylinder ard found a beautiful Rec
ord. 1t said that the Missus put too
much Powder on one side and had a
Nerve to appear in Low Neck; that the
Claret was too cold and the Fizz too
warm; that the Bird was High and
must have come out Of Cold Storage;
that the Anecdotes were cribbed from
the Almanac Inc that he (the Subject)
regretted hat he had not begged off
