A Mt. Jewett newspaper man lets .
this story about Kane girl: She sat
down on safety pin the other day,
and for fear blood poisoning would set
in she bathed the affected part with n
solution of carbolic acid, which caused I
intense pain, and seeking remedy for
this she applied porous plaster and is
now obliged to take her meals standing.
The next time she sits down on a pin
but she declares there will be no
next time
The postoffice department recently
lnaugurated a move to stop the habit
many people have of writing in photo
graph packages, newspapers, etc., that |
are put in the office as merchandise. |
Special inspectors are making the !
rounds and postmasters are instructed !
to open all packages not sealed and if |
writing is found therein to report the |
same to the department. The viola |
tions of the postal law along this line |
are becoming so numerous that it is
simply astonishing.
All kinds of patent medicine testi- |
monials to are be found, but few can
come up to the following recently sent |
to Binghamton patent medicine man: |
MY brother took your noted liver
remedy for four weeks. At the end of |
that time he died. Before his burial a |
faint sign of life was noted and an
autopsy was performed to make death |
certain. The liver was found to be 30 !
very much alive that it was necessary
to take club and kill it.
well-dressed tramp is travelling |
through the country districts living on
inspecting farmers. He is dressed like |
a thrifty farm hand and generally comes
to the farmers house towards evening
and says he is looking for work on
farm. The farmer who is generally in |
need of help, hires him, gives him a |
good supper and place to sleep. Next |
morning after breakfast he states that
he will go back to his last place for his |
things, and that is the last seen of the |
fellow.
An exchange very pertinently re-
marks: In the long run man gets what |
he deserves. If he gets kicked it is be- !
cause he is in the way. The man who |
wants to whine will have plenty of
chances for doing so. There is no rea-
son for worrying or complaining over
things that cannot be otherwise. The
man who gets somewhere is the one
who does the best he can and does not
worry about the rest We are con-
demned, only for not doing what we
are full able to do. If life seems big
job on our hands we should be thankful.
If the Almighty did not think a great
deal of US he would not have given us
such task.
