Rare Diplomacy.

clerk of the house of representatives.

to windward in your speech.
Nov, l remember town char
acter up in Franklin, Pa, who was
continually grating for drinks. One
day some of the boys in one of the
hotels thought they would cure him.
They fixed up drink of whisky that
was a wonder. They put tobacco and
red pepper and few things like that
in a glass and filled it with whisky.
Andy, the CRATER, came along and
they offered the drink to him. He
tossed it down.
1T burned, of course, and Andy
writhed about ten minutes before he
could talk. Then one of the tricksters
asked him, Andy how did you like
that whisky"
ANDY was diplomatic. Instead Of
denouncing the drink he thought there
might be others coming and he con-
tended himself with saying. It's
among the worst. New York World.

The Ugly White Man.

A traveller in the interior of Africa
thus describes the effect which his
presence had upon the natives: "My
appearance on this occasion, as on
many others, excited a universal shrek
of surprise and horror, especially
among the women, who were not lit
tie terrified at seeing such an outcast
of nature as they consider a white man
to be peeping into their huts and ask
ing for little water or milk. The
chief feeling that my appearance in
spired | could easily perceive to be
disgust, for they were firmly persuaded
that the whiteness of the skin is the
effect of disease and sign of weak
ness, and there is not the least doubt
that the white man is looked upon by
them as being greatly inferior to them
selves. One day, after bargaining for
some onions with q country girl. she
told me that if l would take off my
turban and show her my head she
would give me five more onions. | in
sisted upon having eight, which she
gave me. When 1 removed my turban
she started back at the sight of my
shaven crown, and when | jocularly
asked her whether she should like to
have a husband with such a head she
expressed the greatest surprise and dis
gust and declared that she would rath-
er have the ugliest black slave for a
husband"

STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF FAITH
J. T. Bennett Guarantees that Hyomei
will cure the worst case of catarrh in
Lancaster.

When one of the most reputable
concerns in Lancaster guarantees
that medicine will effect cure or
they will refund the money, it speaks
volumes ass to the merits of that
remedy. 1t is in this way that J. T.
Bennett is selling Hyomei, the treat
ment that has made SO many
remarkable cures of both acute and
chronic catarrh in Lancaster and
vicinity.
Hyomei is not pill neither is it a
LIQUID that has to be taken with a
tablespoon or wineglass. Just
breathe it by the aid of an inhaler
that comes in every outfit and bene-
fit will be seen from the very first
treatment.
It destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purifes the blood with additional
ozone. 1t cures catarrh Of the head
and throat, or of the stomach, liver
and kidneys. Wherever mucus
mem brane contains catarrhal germs
there Hyomei will do It's work of
healing When using this treat
ment, the air you breathe will be
found like that on the mountains
high above the sea level, where grow
balsamic trees and plants which
make the air pure by giving off
volatile antiseptic fragrance that is
healing to the respiratory organs.
a complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.OO, and includes an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomeie for
several weeks treatment.
Remember that if Hyomei does
not cure you J. T. Bennett will re-
fund your money. This is a good
time to cure catarrh by this natural
method and prevent catarrhal colds
that are so common at this season.

midnight, as he left the faro palace,
after terrapin supper and a bottle Of
Roederer, he was accosted by a pleth-
oric negro preacher, who, had come all
the way from Lancaster to solicit sub
scriptions to put a roof on the Zion
Macedonia church, near old Thad's
home. The negro preacher approached
him timidly, saying:

What Women Are Doing.

While women are not allowed to
plead as lawyers in German courts,
not few are otherwise employed as
experts in various branches of the pro-
fession. n Berlin one woman serves
as interpreter of the language of
deaf-mutes, and several as translators
OF foreign documents: one makes a
speciality of rendering English legal
phrases into German.
Miss Caroline T.. Greiseim, a clerk
in the civil service department at
Washington. has had unique duty
cut out for her. She has been detailed
to make tour of inspection of the
postofices of the country and interpret
the civil service regulations.
The French government employs l.
$50 workmen and $4,000 women in the
state tobacco manufactures, and
makes {. profit of 40O,0OO000 francs a
year.

The Sultan a Great Reader.

The sultan of Turkey, it is said,
keeps fifteen dragoman secretaries
constantly employed in translating the
best of the worlds literature for his
reading. The TRANSACTIONS include not
only serious works on history, politics
and science, but novels in every Eu-
ropean language. They are written on
large sheets of thick, white, gilt-edged
paper, fastened together by ribbons.
The sultan is said to have special
weakness for the reports of famous
trials and for novels in which great
crime is the chief motive.-Chicago

if hours had passed when suddenly
he heard a faint tap at the outside

the realization that No. 3 was four

door of the outside room creaked. and
a burly form, followed by another and
another, pressed into the waiting room

into the agents room. Murray did not
wait for second glance at the in

the receiver the other toward the re-
volver.
''No messages goes out of this Office

For answer Murray's finger sent the
first word over the wire. With an oath
the leader sprang forward, and some
thing cracked with a sickening sound
in Murray's right arm. He turned
white, and the left hand loosened it's
grip on the revolver. A burly fist shot
forth, but a SMALL white one closed

Her voice trembled, but not with

murmured thickly.

greater measure do we respect the con-
victions of him who knows and demon
strates that he is right.
But how may man know when he
has formed right convictions? There
is certainly but one way and that is to
know himself-to understand the true
principle and origin of his being.
When he has accomplished this, his
true, inner self, the real man, will point
out to him the right and only right
way to pursue in life. It will be to
him as beacon light shining ever on
to guide him in the straight and honor
able path of true convictions.
Following this line of thought it
might appear that no courage is re-
CURED to advance these convictions,
but on closer study one will realize
that when he undertakes to know his
real self and keeps steadily on in the
upward path, the courage required is
of gigantic nature. A courage strong
enough to see the most cherished idols
of mortal delusion dashed to the ground
and showing all his pet ambitions and
selfish aims in their bare nothingness.
1t is in this process of self-examination
and understanding that courage is re-
quired. When a man has passed
drought his fiery ordeal and energies
into the light of truth with clear and
perfect understanding that his con-
| sciousneas and convictions are nothing
| if not the reflection of the one great,
| Principle which governs his existance,
| be is then endowed with courage
sublime in it's grandeur. A courage
which cares not for the established
opinions of the world but one which,
recognizing only the good as reality in
the universe, is proud to be numbered
among the pioneers of right convictions
and is fearless in giving those conyic-
tons to the world; caring not for it's
popularity but ever forming and living
up to convictions in accordance with
the idea of truth alone. Such man,
who has passed through this trying
self examination and is living each
truth as he finds it, is demonstrating a
courage most sublime, courage which
will be a shining example and noun
tain of strength to those who follow
after, for all time.

Spring Elections i.

AS the time for the city elections is
drawing near, it is in proper order to
cast about for suitable men for the
various Offices which are to be filed.
We believe it is becoming customary
to eliminate politics, to a great extent,
from municipal elections. In our
opinion this is move in the right d.
rection. In fact it would undoubtedly
be wise move to eliminate politics
from local affairs altogether.
The Republican believes, as far as
city affairs go, that citizenship and
not partisanship, should be the stand
far as political principles go, they do
not apply in the least to the admins
tration of city's affairs. It is pure
ly business proposition. The aim of
the citizens should be to nominate ca
pable, clean men to conduct the affairs
Of their city, and then see that such
candidates are elected regardless of
party affiliations.
The argumen is sometimes advanced
that the voters should stick strictly to
the party in municipal affairs, as well
as in county, state and national cleo
tons. Why this argument? Does
this procedure, as is sometimes stated,
tend to hold the parties more firmly
together? We think not and if all
voters will get down to the root of the
matter and do some good sound think
ing for themselves, they will readily
see that such arguments applied to
city affairs have a very slippery foun-
dation upon which to base their logic.
In local affairs, where the citizens
are all familiar with each others repu-
tations and capabilities and where no
political principle is involved in the
least iota, there is absolutely no ex-
cuse for making a fight on partisan
lines. It is the duty of all good citi-
zens to unite on good men for all mum
icipal officers, be they Republicans,
Democrats, Populists or what they
may. Elect men who are careful, en-
terprising and of good business judg-
ment; men who will look after the
welfare of the city first, last and all
the time, and in all ways; after they
are elected, back them up in any pro
ftable move they may see fit to inaug.
urate.

SUBLIME COURAGE.

Courage, as the term seems to be
generally understood by mankind, is
invariably applied to valor on the bat
tlefeld or fearlessness in the face of
other physical perils. Such courage
is without doubt worthy of admiration
when displayed in worthy cause,
but it falls far short of the highest order
of this admirable quality, and partakes
in great measure of the brute nature.
The courage which is sublime is that
found in the man who has formed con-
illusions (which The knows, within his
true consciousness, to be right; which
have become firm convictions with him
and who is not afraid to proclaim those
convictions through mere fear of un-
popularity with the world.
One cannot but admire the man who
has the strength of character to cham
pion conviction, no matter how much
we may differ with him as to the
truth of the same. In how much
