Capital tells this one: One day Uncle

sell man horse. The man was no
Judge Of horsefesh, and he knew it.
So, after looking the animal over, he
told *'Uncle Chet"' to come out again
in about ten days. "A friend of mine
who knows horse when he sees it
will be here then" he said, "and I'll
see what he Thinks And, by the
way" he added, "how old did you say
the horse was?" "Seven years old
comm February" said "Uncle Chef, -
as he gathered up the reins and drove
away. In about ten days '*Uncle Chef
drove: out to South Topeka: again. The
prospective purchasers friend was
there, and after looking the horse in
the mouth; asked his age. Twelve
years old this spring. replied Uncle
Chet," smiling hlandly. But" broke
in the man who wanted to buy the
horse, ''you told me not ten days ago
that he was only seven. $50 I did,

OHIO LAWYERS BILL.

Clients Stories.

Made Out Bill for Listening to His
Clients Stories.
Here Is the story of an Ohio Lawyer
who did not become politician, as he
was not built on political lines. It is
told by a Washington man who was
his clerk at one time. Lawyer B. was
a gruff sort of parsonage and believed
in making every one pay for every
service. One of his clients was the
the president of a bank, who, during
the tendency of his case, dropped into
the lawyers Office very frequently and
told stories. The lawyer was a good
listener and seemed to enjoy the sto-
ries very much, but after the banker
went out Lawyer B. would say: Here,
charge Mr.. Blank $40 for an hour of
my time. If have got to listen to his
stories he has got to- pay me for 1t. "
Finally the bill was made out and car
ried to the banker It was an itemiZed
account stating the date Of each call.
He scanned it closely and remarkSd:
"He has made me pay for it pretty
well, hasn't he?"
"Pay for what?" asked the clerk.
'For listening to my stories"
And he paid the bill.-Washington

A Cure for Dropsy.

sedgwick, Ark, June 22d.-Mr. W.
s. Taylor of this place says:
my little boy had Dropsy. Two
doctors-the best in this part OF the
country-told me he would never get
better, and to have seen him anyone
else would have said they were right.
His feet and limbs were swollen SO
that he could not walk nor put on his
shoes.
"When the doctors told me he would
surely die, I stopped giving him their
medicine and began giving him
Dodd's Kidney Pills. I gave him
three pills a day and at the end IT
eight days the swelling was all gone,
but as wanted to be sure, I kept on
with the pills for some time, gradu-
ally reducing the@quantity, till finally
stopped altogether.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly saved
my child's life. Before using them he
was a helpless invalid in his mothers
arms from morning till night. Now
he is q healthy, happy child, running
and dancing and singing. can never
express our gratitude.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills entirely cured

all, had given him up to de-

VineIand Family's Many Misfortunes

VineIand FamiIy's Many Misfortunes.
The extraordinary ill-fortune that
has followed William Cromwell and
his family of Vineland, N. j., for the
past several months has aroused the
sympathy of the entire community.
Monday the climax was apparently
reached when Mrs. Cromwell fell
down stairs and injured her spine so
badly that Mr.. Cromwell had to give
up his; position to be with his family.
First Mrs. Cromwell spent nine weeks
in Philadelphia hospital; then son,
Melvin, had his collarbone broken at
school. Mr.. Cromwell was then bit
ten by a mad dog, which sent him to
the Pasteur Institute at Baltimore for
several weeks. Next daughter,
Mabel, had ian arm broken at school,
and son, Oliver, received fracture
of the skull by being struck by q train
on the Central Railroad. D He had just
returned from the hospital when
Mabel was taken III with diphtheria. ~,

3 ;j z Il inc On a Bucking Bronco. IS So
"a bucking broncho, 2 said the re
tired cowboy, is generally considered
the hardest proposition4tos ride in this
land, but until q man has tackled q
bucking steer he has not realized all
the possibilities Of the gentle art.
"Out in the COW country they have
just begun to learn the art. None of
the Wild West shows has got hold
of the few fellows who have mastered
the straddle and seat, and until they
do their congresses of rough riders
will not be complete.
"You can cinch a. horse up until
there is little possibility of the sad
dies slipping, but it can not be done
on a steer, for the simple reason that
the skin is SO much looser and there
is no place in which to gather up lost
motion. The horse has eighteen ribs
and steer but thirteen.
when the horse bucks, as he does
when he is burdened with something
he doesn't want to carry, his rider
can get pretty firm bridge at most
any place between the crupper and
the shoulder. When the 1teer bucks,
as he generally does wi In ne :eels
saddle on his back, there is a rolling
motion that is for all the world like
that of vessel at sea. The steer
pitches with head and tail movement,
while a horse stops his side swings
before they range far.
''The steer riding fad had it's start
down in Texas, where the animals are
wild enough to suit even the most
exacting cowpuncher, and it is now
being introduced further North. A
puncher's playtime is often long
enough to give him a chance for ex-
periments, and some of the more skill
full have got it down to a fine point.
But the hombre who thinks it is an
easy task to stick to a wild boy who
knows enough to do the grand buck
and pitch is down for an experience he
will carry in his book of remembrance
for long time.'
