WANTED POSTAL CARDS SENT.-A
well-dressed woman went to the
stamp window of the Brooklyn postof-
flee yesterday afternoon and placing a
dollar bill on the window shelf said:
will you please let Inc have dol
lars worth of postal cards? l would
like them sent up to the house, as l
am not going straight home"
"All right" said the stamp clerk,
IF you give me your address I'll have
it manifolded on all of the cards and
you'll get 'em by first mail in the
morning"
"Gracious!" exclaimed the woman,
do you mean to put my address on
each and send them to me by mail?'
II do," replied the clerk.
Now, see here" said the woman,
I'm not in the habit of writing let
ters to myself. 1 want those cards to
mail to my friends for a euchre par

Then you had better carry them
awav with you." remarked the clerk.
So she picked up the cards and floun-
ced out of the office.

GEN. DICK TAKES CHANCE.-ln the
lottery of seats Gen. Dick of Ohio, has
been one Of the most unfortunate mem
bers Of the house, having never yet Sc
cured a desirable seat. AT the begin
ming of the Fifty seventh congress he
was one Of the very last Republicans
called, and had to take the seat In the
extreme southwest corner. the alterna-
tive being a seat in the Cherokee
strip" on the Democratic side. Later
in the session he discovered that a
fairly desirable seat on the Republican
side was vacant, and after watching it
for a week or so applied to the SER
geant- alarms.
IF no one else with prior claim
wants that seat" he said, Il think I'll
take It,"
What, take that seat" the SER
geant at arms fairly shouted. "Why,
man, there isn't a member of the house
would have it. Two members who oc-
cupied that seat have died within the
past year."
I'll take it," promptly replied the
Ohio member. II had blamed sight
rather be dead than sit where am"
He took the seat and survived that
session and the next.-Washington

81 wish to say few words In praise

Burge, Of Martinsville, Va. 81 suffer

years and during that time tried vari-
Gus medicines without obtaining any
permanent relief. Last summer one
OF my children was taken with cholera

this remedy. Only two doses were
required to give her entire relief. l
then decided to try the medicine my
self, and did not use all Of one bottle
before l was we'll and l have never
since been troubled with that COM

rather find out his key to success and
If possible initiate him. A great deal
of envy is engendered by seeing Others
move i'm higher circles than we do
ourselves, and a feeling of undue
avarice overtakes us. This Is wrong.
Instead of casting our eyes upon those
who are better than we, let us turn
our attention to the opposite and
compare our own conditions with
those who are less favored In life than
we. Let us reason with ourselves by
asking whether or not those below us
in life have not as much right TO be
envious of ourselves as we have Of
those who are above us. Envy Is
brought about mainly by discomfort.
View things from the bright side; be
satisfied with your lot and sphere 1T
could be much worse thereby en-
couraging feeling of satisfaction and
a due regard for the true worth Of our
fellow man. BY bringing ourselves
to this condition, we will become bet
ter prepared to grapplc with the stern
realities of life and be more success
ful in our pursuits and be happier in
every way.

Men and Church Services.

The absence of men in Sunda,
meeting is a subject that Is agitatinl
many Of the ministers in the east
There appears to be more indifference
in regard to religious matters among
men, then ever was known before
1t Is thought that If statistics were
taken on the church attendance with
the sexes, it would show that through
out the country from one year to
another, there would be fully seventy
five per cent Of the attendance in
favor of the female and only twenty
five per cent in favor Of the male.
1t is also claimed that the male at
tendance is comprised mostly of in
firm and aged men.
AS rule, men Of all ages have a
sense of religion implanted in their
natures: they believe i'm their reli-
gions, are willing to contribute to the
support of churches and would not
have them eliminated from a COM
munity, yet at the same time most Of
these men give little thought about
eternal things or the future that
awaits them. They take more salts
faction, apparently, in devoting their
time and thoughts almost exclusively
to things of a temporal character.
An English clergyman, in list of
reasons that he thinks are mainly
attributable to the lack of interest in
the attendance at meetings by the
men, gives one as follows: 1T is that
subjects are so seldom touched upon
that interest the men. They like to
hear the solid gospel preached by
those who have made a study Of the
scriptures do not care to hear
too much about the preachers private
opinions about this and that, as they
do about historical facts recorded in
the old and new Testaments, recall
ing prophecies that have been given
and the fultillment of them in latter
days They like TO hear OF the Savior
and know all that can be told about
the prominent characters in Bible
history-Moses, David, Daniel, Solo
mon, Job, Isaiah and all the rest, they
like to hear Of the doings Of these
men while upon the earth. They do
not care about too many funny stories,
too many strained accounts of things
that have happened, but want to
know that everything they hear Is
authentic and can be proven" The
divine goes on further to say would
1t not be better to cater to the tastes
of practical men by giving first class
sermons by those who have a know
ledge of their subjects and thus bring
the right kind of talent to the front,
and If possible arouse feeling of in
terest In the minds and hearts of bust
ness and practical men, draw them to
churches on the Sabbath. and thus
keep before their minds eye that
something else besides this worlds
goods should be sought after. Have
them thoroughly awakened TO the fact
that there is a future destiny await
ing all men, and that destiny will be
governed by their actions in this life. "
The above conditions as to the nom
attendance OF practical business
men to our meetings is very

Training Animals.

lone of the essential things in the
training of animals" said Mr.. Norris,
of.the firm of Norris and Rowc's Big
Trained Animal Shows, is to get an
idea into their heads of what you
want them to do, and another is to
overcome their natural laZiness. Some
animals will protest against perform
ing, more because they are lazy, than
because they do not approve of per-
forming. The transmission of the
idea that you wish to convey to a
dumb animal, requires infinite care
and patience. First it is necessary to
make the subject understand words of
command and manners of authority,
then he ponders it all over, and If he's
fond of his trainer, becomes willing to
learn. 1t Is peculiar fact that some
persons have power over animals
from the moment they come in con-
tact, while Others are never able to
exercise the slightest control. In gen.
eral, man is master of any animal, but
to control it without harm or violence
is far different matter. The first
principle in the training of animals Is
a systematic kindness. Some animals
especially elephants, learn to perform
entirely through imitation, while
others take months of a trainers time
and different species require different
treatment. The work is very like that
of school teacher, who has both
stupid and clever pupils in his classes.
The elephant is the most intelligent
of all animals, being an observer and
reasoner from babyhood, and has
memory that is faultless. | have
known an elephant to recognize man
whom it had not seen for twenty
years. Hero, one of the dwarf ele-
plants with our show Is striking ex-
ample of elephantine sagacity and
wisdom. He never deserts a friend
and has on several occasions shown
great preference for a Lilliputian Bos
lndicus or Sacred Bull which we i'm
ported from India. A mother watch
ing over baby could not express more
solicitude than he does for his COM
panion. One night after our perform
ance had closed and the entire family
Of trained animals were waiting in the
railroad yards for their departure, a
tragedy occurred. Hero and Bos In
deus were standing by the car, ap-
parantly oblivious of everything, when
suddenly there came howl from the
Bos Indicus as big, strange yellow
dog sneaked up and bit him. A second
later and the shrill trumpeting Of an
angry elephant was heard, and Hero
was very much awake. He grabbed
the yellow dog, and holding him in the
air for moment, with terrific force
dashed the unfortunate creature
against box car some twenty feet
away, where he was picked up dead.
Since then the bonds of friendship be-
tween Hero and the Bos Indicus have
become still more closely woven. The
date Of the shows appearance here Is
Tuesday, ] uly l4th.

The Millinery Jobbers' association
Of Milwaukee, has taken a decided
step In the matter of adornments for
ladies' hats by signing an agreement
to dispense with the use Of fcath.
ers of all song birds in that capacity.
The same action will be taken by wo-
mems head gear manufacturers every
where, probably, as the sentiment
against the practice is spreading to all
parts of the country. If the women
had the stamina to refuse to wear hats
trimmed with the feathers of song
birds, the matter would be quickly
settled for all time.

Envy.

One OF the most degrading attri-
butes that a person can cultivate is
envy. 1t leads person to place the
opposite construction on things done
by those who are more fortunate in
life than they themselves: it induces
person to malign and impugn the
motives OF Others. Point out a good,
pious person to the envious man and
ask what he thinks of him, and he
Will tell you that the good man Is a
hypocrite; call his attention to man
OF attachments, he will tell you he Is
stuck up: ask him what he thinks
OF man that has been successful in
business affairs and has made money,
the answer will come back that the
individual Is a thief and a robber,
having pilfered the poor people or
those with whom he has had dealings.
The spirit Of envy is that which
rankleS and tlourishes in the bosom of
the anarchist-a feeling that some
body's acquisitions that are greater
than their own should be divided
The brightness Of prosperity that
surrounds others gives pain to the
envious person. Instead of trying TO
increase their belongings by skill, toll
and ingenuity, they take more de-
light in trying 10 diminish the efforts
OF Others, and seek to elevate them
selves by degrading Others.
The excellence OF others Is what
produces envy. Some enyious persons
repine and worry over the way Others
live as If they themselves had to sup,
port them. Evil men generally will
try TO lessen that which they will not
try to initiate, therefore envious PEG
pie are doubly miserable in being at
flicted with others prosperity anC
their own adversely. Envy is similar
TO poisonous reptile that can b,
made TO sting itself to death.
Let one and all cultivate a disposi
tion opposite to that Of envy. WheI
1t Is observed that person is more
fortunate in life than you have been, |
he Is honest and upright do not i'm
pugn or misconstrue his motives, bu
