Walters who Get Most Tins

Walters who receive the most tips,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean, are usu-
ally those who have everlasting and
Joblike patience, those who do not
easily take an insult, who ever have Il
pleasant smile for their patrons, who
try earnestly to please them and are
always ready to accommodate every
one. A waiter should never place HIM
self In n position of expectancy in the
matter OF receiving tip and should
avoid approaching guest Il he sees
him In the act of drawing change from
his pocket. A waiter should never pose
as an object Of pity with view to Sc
curing tip. If he deserves tip, he
should let the guest feel within himself
that he deserves II, and IL the guest
wishes to give him tip he will usually
manage to catch the walters attention
or leave the tip beside the plate. Should
the waiter receive n tip previous to
waiting on the guest, he should leave
1t lying on the table and then do his
level best to earn it.

MAD ANTHONY" WAYNE.
He Was the sanest, Coolest Soldier
In Washingtonss Army


In WashingtOn's Army.
John II. Spears In Harpers demon
strates that General Wayne, commonly
known as Mad Anthony" was in
reality the sanest, coolest soldier In
Washington's army.
'They called the hero of Stony Point
and the Maumee rapids Mad Anthony
Wayne" says Mr.. Spears 1.-THE title
was originated by an Irish soldier who
had been confined in the guardhouse at
the order of the general, and it was
taken up by the people because of the
wild enthusiasm and determination
with which Wayne led his men when
the supreme moment of battle came.
But observe that when the war of the
Revolution impended he 'ransacked his
tory for accounts of battles that he
might learn military tactics, and he
gave his days to the training of his
neighbors. AT Stony Point he led his
men in spite of his wound, but in pre-
pairing for the battle he appealed to
the pride of his men by parading them
clean shaved and with hair we'll pow
dered,' while the prelaid plans includ-
ed even the slaughter of the dogs, that
no yelp should betray the approach of
the assaultlng host. When In Virginia,
he charged the hosts of CORVALLIS
with only 800 men to back him; when
In Ohio, where the honor of the nation
and the integrity of its territory We're
comnitted TO his care, he took a legion
OF boys and miscreants' gathered from
the Sums and trained them untH their
skill with the musket equaled, If 1t did
not surpass, that of the most noted
backwoods Indian fighters
mad Anthony Wayne as leader
in battle was unsurpassed, but It
should also be remembered that his
record as drill master Is unequaled"

the fellowworkmen spoken of above had
goodly smiles, remarking how good the
kraut and frankfurters were.

1.-THE blood is the life." Science
has never gone beyond that simple
statement OF scripture. But it has
illuminated that statement and given
it meaning ever broadening with
the increasing breadth of knowledge.
When the blood il "bad Tor impure il
is not alone the body which suffers
through disease. The brain Is also
clouded, the mind and judgment are
affected, and many an evil deed or
impure thought may be directly traced
to the impurity of the blood. No one
can be well balanced in mind and body
whose blood is impure. No one can
have wholesome and pure life unless
the blood is pure. Foul blood can be
made pure by the use Of DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. When the
blood is pure, body and brain are alike
healthy aud life becomes a daily hap
piness.

Much interest is shown, since the
recent fake business enterprise that
was worked in Glen Gardner, in the
Convertible Car Company's enterprise
at Bloomsbury. Work is at stand
still, but we understand that the pro-
moters of the enterprise are still on
the ground, and that they have paid
thus far for everything that they have
agreed to. But it appears to be fact
that all money paid has been that
which the Bloomsbury people raised.
Nothing has been done but to grade
the property on which it was proposed
to locate the plant. -Hunterdon

Eek Senator Kuhl took very active
part, in the recent campaign, in favor
of the adoption Of law reducing the
number of Freeholders to three, to be
elected by the county at large, and of
course is much gratified at the result.
In discussing the adoption of the new
law. few days ago, he said:
I'm 1895, as member of the Senate,
| drafted and intended to introduce a
bill of similar character providing for
commissioners to take the place of free
holders, but found that the opposition
from frst-class counties would defeat
its adoption and for that reason did
not introduce it.
"The present Board in llunterdon
county consists of twenty-one mem
bers, besides county collector, clerk
and attorney, and having q Board Of
only three members at stated salary,
which includes all expenses, will resul.
in an annual saving of thousands OF
dollars it the matter of pay per diem
and expenses alone.
Mr.. Kuhl was of the opinion that
under the new system there would be
at least $25, 900 saved, which would
materially reduce the rate of taxation.
Continuing, Mr.. Kuhl said;
''The voters of Hunterdon county
for a number of years have had this
matter under consideration. l conf
IDENTIFY expected its adoption at the
late election and am greatly gratified
at the prospect of more economical
administration of county fff,irs. -

This is a most remarkable showing in

that the state is firmly welded to Re
publican policies on national questions at
least Had il not been for the candidacy
of Col. William n. Barbour in the Sixth
district the Republican majority would
have been about 25,000.
In the Fourth district the plurality
of Representative William NJ. Lanning
