A WONDERFUL EPOCH.
Recent Daily Newspapers Have Been
of More Moment Than Ancient
Chronicles.

When we consider how short is the
ordinary limit of presidents term of
office, and then reflect upon all the
great and stirring things of actual his
torical Importance that have occurred
in space of time longer than that
time by mere bagatelle of weeks, we
shall begin to realize into what a
whirl of historymaking our latter
days have been plunged, says Harper's
Weekly. Two wars of magnitude have
been begun and ended; the colonial
empire of once powerful nation has
gone down into the dust; the colonial
empire of great Anglo-Saxon people
has been welded, strengthened and in
creased; a great and enlightened
queen has died; a great and enlight-
ened president has been struck down
by an assassin's hand; great discover
les in science and wonderful strides
in surgery have been made; vast in
dustrial enterprises have been born
and brought to a successful though
early maturity; disasters unparalleled
have occurred upon sea and land, and
where once a smiling city nestled
among the soft verdure of tropical
hillside now stands smoking wilder
ness, with naught of life left to tell of
that which used to be. The reader of
to-day does not need to rummage
through his Pliny or his Plutarch, his
chapters of revolutionary days, his
chronicles of happenings to kings and
other rulers, his stories of Newton,
Calico and of Jenner, in search of
passages to stir his soul. His daily
newspaper for four years past has
given him these things in great abund-
ance, and whether it has been of the
woes of Pelee, the horrors of Picking,
the naval victories of Santiago and of
Manila, the privations of war in Trans
vaal or Philippines, that he reads from
those flying leaves of journalism, he
will find nothing in all the printed
pages of the historians to surpass
them. 1t has been wonderful period,
fit in interest at least to bring one CEN
fury to a close and to start another
upon its cycle.

She Was Always Contrary.

Men and women are much the same
the world over. The peasantry of
the south of Russia have an amusing
story the moral of which ought to
appeal to the husband whose wife
once said: "There is only one thing
on which my husband and I agree.
He wishes to have his own way and
so do l." According to the Russian
story, the cantankerous wife of a
long suffering moujik fell into a
rapid rolling river and was swept
away. On hearing of his Joss the
agitated husband set off to search
for the body of his wife, but was
apparently so deranged by the ca
lamity that he started to go upstream
instead of down. Some of his neigh
bors had formed search party to
help him and they tried to persuade
him that the body had been carried
the opposite direction he wished to
go. 'No, no, no." he said, marie
was always SO contrary when she was
alive she must have foated up the
riyer."-Chicago Chronicle.

WHAT AN ALMANAC DID.

Matthews, Ark, Aug. 25th.-Mrs.
Lee S. Sanders, of this place, tells how
an almanac saved her life.
Il have been troubled a great deal
with my kidneys all my life and was
constantly growing worse.
Il CHANGED to get copy of Dodd's
Almanac for 1902 and in it read some
stories of how Dodd's Kidney Pills had
cured many very bad cases of Kidney
Trouble.
my husband bought box and l be-
gan to use them and in a short time we
were surprised and delighted at the
wonderful improvement in my case.
Il am now as well as anybody and
can not say too much for Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. 1t was lucky day for me
when l picked up that almanac.

Fritz Scheel, director of the Phila-
delphia orchestra, has fondness for
American slang and ~colloquialisms
that is far in excess of his aptness in
acquiring the exact words and sense.
When he first came to Philadelphia, in
the summer of 1899, he was struck by
the expression ''Out of sight," spoken
with fine heartiness to indicate pleas
ure and satisfaction with the general
order of things. Scheel determined to
make use of it at the first opportunity,
and to that end repeated it over and
over to himself, always keeping in
mind the circumstances under which
it should be uttered. Mr.. Elias met the
musician one afternoon when the lat
ter was playing at Woodside park, and
cheerily called out:
"How are you, Fritz?"
"You don't see mel" was Scheers
prompt and amazing reply.-Philadel-

True, our mother watched above US

But ole dad, he bumped to feed us
Till his back would nearly break,
Mother crooned above the cradle,
Gave devotion all she had;
Still, thar wasn't any circus
All this time for poor ole dad!
DO not take one line from mother
When we write the soul-sweet song,
But if thars a word for father
Now and then, it won't be wrong.

The Charleston, S. c., NeWS and

the Missouri exhibit at the Charleston
Exposition, pays the following de-
served compliment to Hon. +. P.
Graves, of Doe Run, Mo-: 1.-The mines
and mining exhibit, in charge of Hon.
F. P. Graves, OF Doe Run, was always
a source OF interest. Such magnificent
displays OF lead and zinc, of granite
and terra Gotta, of calcltes and blends
were at first bewildering, but under
close examination easily demonstrated
the great esource that lie underneath
the fruitful soil of Missouri. More
zinc is mined in that state and galena
unearthed than any other state, not
excepting Colorado, and the display
at the Exposition was entirely worthy
OF this fact. Mr.. Graves never wearied
OF explaining to the multitudes the
mysterious processes by which Yalua-
BILE minerals are discovered and de-
veloped, and his charming personality
added a species Of fascination to his
exhibits"
