cannot resist here telling q story
concerning Brother Chauncey Depew
IL Is too good to be original, but the
senator must be In 1t just as Lincolr
was in all the stories Of the past period
A tramp met the senator and asked him
in that easy, velvet-tongued way:
"Would you kindly assist A." etc
Chauncey, Of course, is an easy mark
and, as he famed himself after extract
ing the quarter, the tramp inquired:
"Apd who may / say was so kind
hearted?"
"Oh, never mind. That's all right y
'But in after years, when / recall
those whose tender. hearts"
"Never mind, my good fellowi"
"Then cannot accept II, sir. ] must
let my friends know
"Well, tell 'em IL was Grover Cleve
land and let IL 60 at that"
The tramp put the quarter back In
his pocket, and leisurely shook his head.
'Now my good fellow" said the sen.
ator, "may ask your name?"
"a gentleman in distress is 10th to
confess"
"Yes, but 10 have your name, may
be able to help you"
mo, my pride will not permit"
"But allow me to know whom | have
had the pleasure Of meeting in this
happy way"
"Oh, well, tell 'em IL was Chauncey
Depew, At let IL go at that"
Chauncey famed himself and let II
go.-Exchange.

"Here is someone" said the medium,
"who wishes to talk to Mrs. Sadie
Pringle. Will the lady, II there is such
a person in the audience, please rise?"
An anxious-looking little woman
stood up.
"It is a mans voice / hear" the me-
dunn went on. Are you a widow,
Mrs. Pringle?"
"Ye-es," she replied rather timidly
and sat down.
"Yes," the medium continued, sit
whould have been unnecessary for me
to ask you that if 1. had waited mo-
ment. The person at my side tells me
he has a message for you. He says he
is your husband, and is very happy.
He is often by your bed at night. and
"Beg your pardon" Mrs. Pringle
said, rising again. I'm not the kind
OF widow you think, and the man
that was my husband is setting back
of that third post over there, looking
far from happy"
The seance then broke up In q gener

1t is safer TO prune too little than too
much.
Moist earth and q cloudy day for
trausplanting.
Gooseberries and currants are two
easily grown fruits, and there Is seldom
an oversupply.
The quality and size OF fruit on old
bushes Is much improved by thinning
OF the fruit or severe pruning.
The cause of moss appearing on the
stems of apple and other fruit trees Is
wet, cold, undrained land or an exces-
sively humid climate.
In saving garden seed gather when
ripe. Do not allow It TO shell of. The
first matured Is the best, and the first
matured will shell first.
A good mulch around fruit trees
helps to keep down weeds, keeps the
soil loose, moist and porous at all times
with little labor OF cultivation.
The time OF setting out OF fruit treei
Is Of far less Importance than TO ses
that the right varieties are selected
the soil prepared and transplantinf
well done.

The Agony Endured by
Nervous Women.

My nerves are all unstrung" is the
expressive way in which a woman is
apt to describe a condition of extreme
nervousness. The fgurative expression
Uunstrung" may be unscientifc but it
pathetically suggests the grand harp OF

for hsrmonies by its Maker, now become
so unstrug that it gives out nothing but
jarring discords- Nervous people rarely
receive the sympathy which is their due.

womanly diseases. 1t is useless to at
tempt TO cure nervousness by the use Of
