The Coroner's Two verdicts.

"Inuuests are sometimes very funny
affairs" remarked a western man. II
remember one in the early days OF my
county in Kansas. A man was found
dead by the side Of small stream out
on the prairie. No mark was found
on his we'll dressed body. His gun
was fully loaded in his hip pocket. and
S25 was found in his pocketbook. or
course the coroner took charge OF the
money. A jury was impaneled and
after finishing it's deliberations found
that the man clearly died Of heart fail
ure.
The coroner promptly paid from the
dead mans pile the S12 due for ex-
penses and discharged the jury. The
S13 remaining bothered him. He ar
gued that to turn that S1S over to the
county. to be held in trust for the
mans possible relatives. would be the
same as throwing it away. The man
was a stranger in those parts. Posi-
bly, he had no friends.
The coroner was equal to the occa-
sion, however. He declared himself
dissatisfied with the verdict and call
ed the jury together again. They sat
on the body 4 second time and found
exactly the same verdict, but the coro-
ner's mind was at ease. The $25 was
exhausted" -Washington Star.

EARLY STRAWS OF FASHION.
FANCIES FOR THE COMING SPRING
THAT HAVE WON THE APPROVAL
OF FRENCH WOMEN.

The dropping hat will be much seen
in the spring.
Gowns are made long on the shoulder,
yokes and collarettes are run down long
on the shoulders, or the shoulders are
trimmed.
Tucks will be very much in evidence
the coming spring and summer.
1t is really too early to tell whether
the Juror for gold will run over into an
other season. We must wait and see If
we feel gold when the summer days
come. Cravats are seen on the new
cloth gowns.
Cashmeres will be popular the coming
spring, and all the women at Nice and
Monte Carlo are wearing the light pastel
shades in cloth and the pale pinks, blues
and beiges, as usual.
Mixed cloths are very much seen-that
is to say, black with liberal peppering
of white, gray with white, and pastel
blue.
For slender women nothing can be
prettier for the spring than the boleros
with basque backs consisting of three
little pieces on each side, one over the
other and rounded at the ends. Above
these pieces is belt.-Ladies' Home

TALK UP The PASTOR.

ST do not remember ever to have heard
In nv fathers home one disrespectful or
unkind word concerning a minister"
This ia what we overheard young
woman say not long ago. She paid her
parents very high compliment, and
described condition which should find
counterpart in every Christian home.
Ministers are men. They are not
perfect. There are flaws In character
and inconsistencies in life. But many
persons magnify molehill infirmities into
mountains Of real badness. The reckless
handling of ministerial reputation is one
of the fragrant sins of our times. Poi
soned arrows are shot from thousand
bows. A minister's reputation Is his
capital. 1t is everything. You might q
hundred times better burn his home than
upjustly assail his good name; as well
waylay him and stab him to the heart as
break down public confidence in his In
tegrity and religious character. A had
man should not be excused or shielded
because he carries the shepherds crook !;
but the fact that he carries the shepherds
crook should not subject man to unjust
and malignant criticism. We plead for
fair play.
Christians should be outspoken and
true-blue in loyalty to their minister.
Are some against him? They should be
for him with emphasis. Are some talk
ing him down? They should talk him up.
Suppose he does not suit you. He can
not suit everybody, and he is an ideal
pastor in the estimation of u good many
people who know almost as much as you
do. Kind words count; speak them
often. Allow no one to speak disparag-
ingly of the minister in your presence.
Give the faithful lift every little while.
Talk him up in the church, in the home,
in society, on the street, in the shop, on
the cars, everywhere. He will take
courage; will preach better sermons
will put increased enthusiasm into all
his multiplied duties; will win glorious
ly; and you will have the great joy of
knowing that your bracing words prov
ed real tonic and helped him to con-
quests he never could have achieved
while struggling alone.-Epworth

The Grip Epidemic.

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever
and Quite as Fatal. The Rest Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doctors
and health authorities this season by
its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either a fatal onset of
pneumonia, or complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is proven
ton. BY wearing a Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary carey you are safe
from grip.
For those who are already suffering
from grip, or from the usual winter
coughs and colds, BenSon's Paste,s
are sure and speedy relief and cure.
Highly medicinal and scientific.
Refuse limitations and substitutes.
Only the genuine are effective. Ex-
anime when you buy. Seabury &

WASTED ELOQUENCE.
A LOT OF JERICHO oRAToRY THAT
COUNTED FOR NAUGHT.

Pap Perkins, the Postmaster, Tells
Why the Discussion Over Orna-
mentins the Top of the Town Hall
Tower Was Abruptly Ended.
copyright, 1900. by C. B. Lewis.1
Jericho has bin buildin town hall
fur the last six years. 1t was to hev
a tower in the middle, and there has
bin q good deal Of discussion as to
what should finish off that tower.
Some stuck fur a gilt ball, some fur a
rooster, some fur crossbars with the
p'ints of the compass on 'em. The
town board wanted to please the ma
iority, and a meetin was called one
night last week to settle what the
thing should be. Nobody realized how
intense the feelin was till the meetin
opened. Squar' Joslyn headed the gilt
ball party, and he got up and spoke
fur Is minits without stoppin to wipe
the sweat off the back Of his neck.
He started in $50 years B. G. and come
slippin down to now like soft soap
glidin down the cellar stairs. He con-
tended that gilt ball on the top Of n
tower had allus bin considered an en-
blem of innocence. 1t would be the
fust thing a stranger would look fur
when enterin the town Of Jericho. II
he saw that gilt ball, he'd put up at
the tavern and feel safe and 60 away

And very cold and tired was l.
Across the wide, deserted void
We trudged beneath heavy sky.
We felt Of friends and joy bereft
Since my bright second we had left.
In sooth, twas bad enough to plod
From scenes so dear to beau and belle,
But fate had still heavier rod
My first without warning fell
And on the ground lay white and still
Just as we reached the castle hill.
We ran, and as we ran we pressed
My first into my second small.
Not ours to sleep, to sit, to rest,
II we would reach the town at all.
But still we stopped my first to roll.
And thus that night We made my whole.
