An exchange pays feryent tribute
to the kicker. II likes the kicker be-
cause he makes things lively in his
vicinity and relieves the monotony.
The same might be said of the mule,
but let that pass. Once upon a time
two frogs fell into a full milk can.
One of them sank and was drowned,
The other struck out with his hind
legs and padded and padded until
he had churned the milk into butter,
Then he got on top OF the butter lump
and sat there until he was rescued,
and hopped of. Moral; Keep kicking
and you'll land somewhere. all right,

The new reporter, did you say;
well; the managing editor always has
to keep an eye on him. He is apt
to be too slow or too energetic. Some
of the news that an industrious local
scavenger will drag into an office is
more dangerous than dynamite. For
instance, there are always several
juicy sensations on tap in the COM
munity that are hanging on the lower
branches of the tree of knowledge,
getting good and ripe before they are
ready to pick. The strenuous novice
on the staff gathers them in green
and the whole community would be
grabbing at the unripe fruit of his pre-
mature industry while the managing
editor would have to leave town for
few days, or keep an outlook on the
mizZenmast for month as he walked
the street to see who was coming
around the next corner with a smile
and six-shooter, saying, there's that

Culver, the Republican candidate for
sheriff for his nerve in getting mar
ried before election. He wanted to
be sure of one job, but that nerve was
characteristic of the man. He would
drop a man with winchester or hang
man in the course of duty if the
law required him to. Nerve is

Jim Culver has a particle of yellow
streak in him. He is cool-headed but

A Fieht With Two Eagles.

Ukish, Cal, special to New York Sun.
 Charles Read, sheepman of Redwood Valley, Is now under a doctors care as a result of a single-handed fight with two large bald eagles. Read had missed sheep and lambs from his pasture and .Nt traps for coyotes.
 Yesterday he discovered a large bald eagle in one trap. The eagle appeared exhausted by its struggles and was lying down. Read released the spring and in- stantly the eagle attacked him. It's mate, who was watching near, joined in the fight, With the heavy wings they beat him to the ground. tearing his flesh with their talons and peaks.
 Read secured his pistol, and while pro- tecting his face he managed to get the barrel of his pistol against one of the birds and fired. The other was frighten- ed away by the report The wounded one set its talons in his right thigh and held on with a death grip.
 When Read recovered from his exhaus- ton he was unable to remove them. He dragged himself to his cabin and was brought to this city, where the talons were cut out. The eagle measured nine feet from tip to tip.

TO SAVE SPARROW.
Sailor Risked His Life in Climb for
 pAr.d

Aa Philadelphia North American.
 William Dayton. a sailor, risked his life to save a sparrow yesterday. He climb ed to the top of a tall sycamore tree in Washington Square, then crawled out upon a branch and released the bird held in a trap there.
 Stretched from the sycamore to another tree was a tangled kite string. Flying across 1t the sparrow's wiug was caught and the bird fiuttered in air helpless.
 Dayton, who halls from North Caro- llna, and came to port in coast vessel. was one of the crowd who watched the bird. Then up the sycamore he went, easily and gracefully. As he reached the top. 75 feet above the pavement, the l branches bent beneath its weight. Crawl ing cautiously on a limb he caught the string and the sparrow was released. The spectators cheered Dayton's act and collection of money was lifted for him. | He was rewarded also by the Pennsylva- mia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Aanimals. The bird will be kept in the De Lancey-street police station until it IS 1 able to fly.

Why Sufferer from the Health- Wrecking Diseases Your Sex

Painful menstruation yields nearly as readily to Feminala as scanty or irregu. lar menstruation. Chronic inflammation of the womb is quite as yielding to its curative powers as disorders of less dis. aster.
 In short-female diseases of long stand ing and serious nature just as surely suc- cumb to the beneficial influences of Fem- inala as Arrangements of short duration and lesser importance.
 Feminala acts specifically. It allays in- fiammation where there is inflammation. It strengthens the whole of the uterine organs. It tones, builds up, and makes normal the whole afflicted tract.
 To make the point clear-FeminaIa cures by removing the cause of the dis ease. rather than by affording relief of a temporary nature by action upon the disorder or disease in itself
