Not OVer=WiSe.

There is an old allegorical picture of a girl scared at 8 grass hopper, but in the act of heed lessly treading on snake. This is paralleled by the man who spends a large sum of money building a cyclone cellar, but neglects to provide his fami- ly with a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a safeguard against bowel complaints, whose victims outnumber those of the cyclone a hundred to one. This remedy is everywhere recognized as the most prompt and reliable medi- cine in use for these diseases. For sale at Cotter's drug store.

Coins for the Philippines.

President Roosevelt and Sec retary Root have examined de signs submitted for subsidiary coins to be put in circulation m the Philippines and have decided that those of a Filipino artist named Figueras are the best. The Philippine government bill authrized the establishment of a mint at Manila. The coins will range from 10 cents to 50 cents in silver and from F to 5 cents in copper. The intention of coin ing a silver dollar was aban- doned.
 It will be necessary to install new machinery in the old Span ish mint in Manila. The old equipment is practically worth less. The dies will probably be cut at the Philadelphia mint. The law provides that there shall be device symbolical of the sovereignty of the United States and some design appropriate and significant of the island itself. The design was approved by Acting Governor Wright and has been accepted by the war de- partment.
 On the obverse side appears a female clad in flowing robes and with hair streaming over her shoulders. Her left hand repos- es gracefully upon her bosom, while her right holds banner which rests easily upon an anvil at her feet. In the rear appears a smoking volcano, a represent ation of the celebrated Mayor volcano in the province of Albay, Island of Luzon. This is the largest active volcano in the archipelago. Above this design appeaes the denomination of the coin, and below it the word "Filipinas."
 On the reverse is a simple but beautiful American shield bear ing the stars and stripes with an eagle perched above the words, "United States of America, and the date, which are on this side. The whole makes a striking and beautiful coin. Among the de- signs submitted was one by Rear Admiral Taylor.

Most of the kicking done in this world is done at the wrong person. When a man wants to kick he usually talks to every person he meets but the right one. If you must kick why don't you hunt up the right one and do your talking to him.

NOTES OF THE WORLDS FAIR.

Connecticutwill send to the worlds fair one of her finest military organizations, Company A of Waterbury. Henry B. Carter, worlds fair commission CT from that state, is captain. The military feature of the ex- position will include many thou sands of drilled men.
 A party of Laramie, Wyoming, gentlemen have organized a worlds fair club to visit the ex- position at St. Louis m 1904. The party will charter special Pullman train with dining car. The plan of the club is to depos- it a given sum of money each month with the treasurer, so that when the fair opens the money to pay for the excursion will be in hand. It is estimated that $50 will pay the expenses of each person for one weeks visit to the fair.
 Ecuador will take part 1n the worlds fair at St. Louis, Presi dent Plaza and the Ecuadorian board of immigration believing the big exposition a good place to exploit the resources of the republic. An exposition is plan- ned to be held at Cuenca next May, and it is expected the ex- hibits at that fair will be sent to St. Louis.
 The ruins of the former homes of cliff dwellers in Northern Ari- zona will be visited this month by party of St. Louis and Washington scientists, who pro- pose to dig for specimens to be taken to the worlds fair in 1904. Arrangents are also under way for a collection of specimens from the petrifed forests of Ari- zona to be placed with the terri tory's exhibit. The Arizona worlds fair commission has ap- piled to Washington for permis- sionstol take from the reserve such Specimens as may be satis- factory and will give a prop CT idea of the beauty and value of these petri6ed trees. Arizona will also have one of the best mineral exhibits at the fair.

Crnshed the Obiector.

Booker T. Washington told an anus
ing story Of an old colored preacher
who was endeavoring to explain to his
congregation how it was that the chill
dren Of Israel passed over the Red sea
safely. while the Egyptians. who came
after them, were drowned. The old
man said: $50
"Ny brethren, it was this way: When
the Israelites passed over. 1t was early
In the morning, while it was cold, and
the ice was strong enough so that they
went over all right; but when the
Egyptians came along it was In the
middle Of the day, and the sun had
thawed the ice so that 1t gave way
under them, and they were drowned"
At this a young man in the congrega-
ton. who had been away to school and
had come home, rose and said: II don't
see how that explanation can be right,
parson. The geography that I've been
studying tells us that ice never forms
under the equator, and the Red sea IS
nearly under the equator"
"There, now" said the old preacher
'OThat's all right. Tze been 'spectin'
some of you smart Alexis would be
askin' lest some such fool question.
The time was talkin' about was be-
fore they had any jogafries or 'quators
either"
