EXCITED OVER TENTS.
National Guardsmen Thought that they
Would Have to Sleep in sspup' Tents.

Some OF the local Guardsmen feared
that they would have to sleep iu
pup tents when they went TO camp
this year as it was specified in the or
der that each man was TO take such a
tent. AS the order last year also
specified this and the men used the
wall tents exclusively it is hard to see
why they are excited this year.
The wall tents will be used for
sleeping quarters. They are not in
cluded in each mans equipment and
hence were not laid down in the order
as having to be taken by the men
The big tents will be taken and the
men will sleep comfortably ia the
Grove at Parkersburg where the camp
is to be held.

CANDLES.
Their Mellow Light Is Fast Become
 Ing hut Memory. ,.

So markedly is the candle going out of use that the dictionary of q few years hence will probably have to sup plement its definition with an illustra- tion. In the glow of electric light. gas and paraflin we are much disposed to pity our immediate forefathers who had to put up with candles.
 Yet we retain strange respect for the candle in certain directions. When we wish to pay the highest reverence, we fall back upon 1t. The death cham Der is lighted with candles. So is the church altar. We cannot but be forced also to the conclusion that higher ideas have been brought out and better mat ter written by candlelight than have been or probably ever will be by that of gas or electricity.

THE NEW MANAGER.
Why He Did Not Discharge n Ger ain
 Railroad Conductor.

Among the first railroads built in the United States was little line about twenty miles in length. In the course of time big tunnel line was construct ed through the same country. The orig inal line became merely branch. For many years it was run in q cheap way, with one locomotive. one engineer and two or three freight cars.
 Finally new general manager was appointed. He had been in the office but week when he sent for the one lone conductor who had held the posi- tion ever since the road was built.
 "I would like to have your resigna- tion," said the general manager when the conductor appeared.
 My resignation" inquired the con- ductor in astonsbment.
 "Yes, sir, yours"
 What for, pray?"
 "Well, 1 want to make some changes and get new blood in the line," was the general managers reply.
 q won't resign" answered the con- ductor.
 "Then I will be compelled to dis charge you, step which for your sake had hoped I would be saved from taking"
 Young man. you will not discharge me. I own controlling interest in the stock of this railroad and elect the president and board of directors. l shall have you fred"
 The old conductor did really own the majority of the stock and, as he said. put in his own board of directors and president.

A TRANSIT OF VENUS.
How It Was Observed by q Party Of
 German Scientists.

On their way between Telriz and Teheran the members of an expedition sent to Persia by the German govern ment to observethe transit of Venusmet a solitary European iady riding in the opposite direction, member of the English colony, who was as clever as she was beautiful. Having been long q resident in Persia, she was fearless ly riding alone long way ahead of her caravan. The Germans marveled at such an apparition in such dreary waste-wondered she wasn't afraid. Wouldn't she let some of them stand by until her servants and baggage came up? No, she was quite at ease. and usually in her travels was far ahead of her attendants, whose mules, more heavily laden, could not keep her pace.
 And now, gentlemen" she said, "who are you, and where are you bound for?"
 They introduced each other. One was the astronomer another the photogra- pher, another the archnologist, the nat uralist, and so on, and they were going to Ispahan to observe the transit of Venus. The lady smiled, started her pony and waved her adieu, saying:
 "To observe the transit of Venus? Ah, well, you can go home, now, gen. tlemen! Your duty is done. Goodby."
 The fair vision disappeared at can ter toward the horizon, and it was said that the Germans did not see the joke till long time after Venus had disap- pcared from their ken.-J fife of Majof General Sir Robert Murdoch Smith, K. c. NJ. c.

The wish that a hair preparation will fill the bill' is father to the fancy that it is likely to do so. A rare case in Toint is that of Newbros Herpicide, which actually does fill the bill.'
