lating the cost to the men of the

of the constituent companies of
the trust, meanwhile, have been
cut off to the extent of nearly SIS

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have

DONATION.

the greatest amount Of pleasure to
the greatest number, why did he
not endow free theatres, orchestras,
opera houses and concert chambers,
and also free excursions? The
discussion was not confined to
New York; it overfowed into all
the states and territories, and is
still going on in the press and in
all circles Of society.
Fortunately for New York and
for its would-be benefactor's feel
ings, Mr.. Carnegie is three thou
sand miles away and does not
know how ignorant the world is
of the injunction not to look into
the mouth Of a gift-horse. Be-
sides, Mr.. Carnegie has lived up
to his own convictions. too long
and too wisely to change his mind
at the bidding of the multitude.
But there are other multi million
aires scores of them-wbo are
wondering what to do with such
parts of their acquisitions as can
not be carried into another world
If these we'll meaning men do not
assume, from the criticisms Of
Mr.. Carnegie, that the public
is an ass, and should not be dis
turbed at the kicking in which it
seems to delight, they are of finer
clay and more enduring gray
matter than such of us as are not
yet embarrassed by more money
than we can spend.
Why shouldn't the rich be as
free as the poor to do as they will
with their own, each according to
his hobby, whether it be to help
free libraries, big hospitals, better
roads, foreign missions, picture
galleries, public gardens, or what
ever else? To endeavor to return
to the world whatever one has
gained from it is so seldom at
tempted, yet is so satisfactory to
all who profit by it, that such
efforts should not be discouraged.
If there must be criticisms, let
them come only from men who
themselves have millions to give
away. Mere talk is cheap, but
when money talks there is likely
to he some point to what is said.

Read his life and be convinced.
We seldom realize, until tits too
late, the manifold blessings we
have missed and the needless
heart aches and indignities we
have caused our dearest friends to
suffer through some folly of our
own. Do such friends desert and
rebuke us in turn as we Justly de-
serve? All, there lies the key to
true friends heart; to rebuke
us would be to question his or
her loyalty, to make friendship
an impersonal motive instead of
an essential means to personal
happiness. Such friends are not
made by an external display of
prosperity or by the lavishing of
affectations for the mere gratifca-
ton of some personal vanity. Oh
no, there is a deeper, more potent
influence at work, that indefinable
something that springs from the
soul; a sweet, reciprocating SYM
pathy that is as deep as eternity
makes itself manifest no matter
how great the distance or how
wide the breach of social standing;
in sorrow or in JOY such friend
will stand by you, no matter how
great your misfortune. When
you have gained such a friend
you have gained all that is richest,
dearest and noblest here on this
earth. Very few of us can count
among our true friends the play
mates of our youth, our school
mates I should say, and the in
variable rule is to find our best
and truest friends in or about the
prime of life; and as is the rule,
a chance acquaintance, total
stranger, will prove to be that
friend. [ speak, tits true, from
personal experience, but my ex-
perience with friends has been
broad; and in this, over and above
all places, where [ am enabled
to qualify the standard of a true
friend. INOHOO.

It is within the province of
every human being to hold in
memory. if not in fact have, a
friend without the immediate
sphere and environments of his or
her own kin. How long have
these pseudo-friends lasted ?
Were your anticipations realized
in the hour Of need? The love of
coquette was never more tickle
as when we turn expectantly to
our friends in the hour of need.
Candidly, how many among your
friends responded to your mute
appeals? Few, and [ might en-
plastic the conviction by saying,
"dam few at the best" The fact
is an insipid morsel to masticate,
but we must all swallow these
choice tit-bits of ingratitude as
we 60 adown the path of worldly
experiences. True, we are our
selves responsible for the condi-
tons we create; but have we not
a just right to anticipate measure
for measure of those who never
lost an opportunity to push their
radiant individuality before our
susceptible imagination? Like
worms, these pseudo-friends ought
to elicit our admiration the mo-
ment they crawl out of sight and
remain in the total oblivion, not
to be taken up again as of yore.

How SaloonkeeperS Are
Worked.

Several years ago I was in the
saloon business, and one day a
man came in who seemed to be in
a great hurry.
"Give me two schooners of
BEER" said he.
"What?" I said. zone for you
and one for me? Very nice. ="
[ filled two glasses and set them
on the bar; he drank one, then
started out without paying. When
I asked him who was to settle, he
replied: '"Oh, l left the other
beer to SETTLE" and then he disap-
peared.
Another time | was standing in
front of the saloon when I saw an
old man pick up tobacco tag and
put it IN his pocket. Then he
entered my place and called for a
glass of beer. He got the beer
and drank it, and threw the tag
on the counter for payment.
"ls that roight?'' he asked.
"That's tin I replied.
ooh, sure faith" says the old
man, Il thought it was only foive.
Take somethin' y'rsilf.'
One day a man came in and
asked for a glass of water, and
when [ gave it to him said, "Would
you mind putting a little lemon
in it for me?" I did as he re-
quested. "Would you mind put
ting in a bit of sugar. was his
next request. Not thinking that
I was being worked, I did SO.
He drank it and said: ''That was
the best and easiest glass of lemon
ade I ever had. Thank you very
MUCH" and out of the door he
went. b. III. FATTY.

What is the peculiar faculty
shat impels human nature to wish
that whatever exists for the time
being might be something else !?
1t is the faculty which prompts
one to wish that a man, no matter
how successful and useful, would
use his abilities in some way other
than that in which he has become
prominent, and which makes the
man who sits down to table we'll
supplied with cartridges and pine
apples wish that the cook had
served corned beef and cabbage.
A notable illustration of the
point has been visible ever. since
Mr.. Carnegie made his FIVE million
dollar offer to the city of New
York for system of free libraries.
So large a gift to the reading pub
lie had never been made before,
and for fully forty eight hours the
entire country, as we'll as the bene-
ficiary city, was profuse in ex-
pressions of establishment and
admiration. But soon there arose
a chorus of dissent and criticism.
Why do so much for single city ?
Why invest so large a sum in
books, when everybody knows
that not more than one adult in
five cares to read anything but
the daily papers, and not more
than one in ten of the remainder
will read anything but fiction?
If New York really needed scores
OF new libraries, could it not obtain
them more cheaply than by CON-
plying with the terms of Mr..
Carnegie's offer? Did not Mr..
Carnegie know that all churches,
asylums, hospitals and colleges
needed more money than they
could get? Was he blind to the
fact that fully half the people of
New York were obliged to herd in
uncomfortable, dirty tenement
houses because there were no fit
places of abode within their
means? We're not all missionary
societies hampered in their work
by lack of sufficient means? If
the giver cared not for imperiled
souls and bodies, as some critics
implied, but wished only to give

As in the burrows of pillow,

And soon the harvest of thy toll

all men must pass through the
cruel and bitter vicissitudes of
this life before they can repose in
the sunshine of true friend
counsel and coincidence?
Somewhere in the good book |
have read of friend that "sticketh
closer than brother" [ believe
it, not because a brother or sister
is not true in the hour of adversely,
but because the sacrifices of a
friend are far more sincere, the
risks they assume far greater
than are those of our own kin.
A true friend does not stop to con-
slider the cost of a personal sacri-
fee when the principles of friend
ship are at stake. It is this self
sacrificing nature of true friend
that appeals to our better selves
and creates within us an affinity
of affection that will do and dare
at all hazard.
