An Incenious Boy.

Not many years ago a frolicsome
youngster years old. who was attend
ing one of the district schools in
Barre. met an emergency in the fol
lowing way:
He was sitting in an open window
a. the noon recess, AID. seeing the
teacher coming, jumped down, catch
ing the seat of his trousers on nail
as he did so, and tearing out a large
Piece where it would be the most con-
spicuous- What to do he did not
know.
He could not appear in school in
that predicament, and did not want to
lose the half day Retiring to a con-
venient shelter, he removed his shoes
end trousers. From one OF the shoes
he took the string, and using the sharp
point on the end for a needle, he care
fully caught the rent together well
enough to pass muster for the rest OF
the day, when he marched home IN

FAST Choking Man Relieved by PRINT
tive Operation.
In one of the most fashionable res
Eaurants in Paris last spring a mans
life was saved through the skill and
luickness of one of the guests 1t ap-
pears that a man, with three friends
was dining at one of the small tables.
when a piece of meat lodged in his
throat and he found it impossible to
get rid of it. His friends in alarm
slapped him on the back, but the I'M
fortunate man became black in the
face and fell to the floor.
A surgeon from the German hospi-
tai. who happened to be dining in the
cafe, pushed his way through the
crowd He saw at once that the man
was dying and that If prompt meas
ures were not taken he would quick
ly succumb- He ordered one of the
~aiters to bring him a small funnel
such as is used in bottling wine. and
then, without a moments hesitation,
took out a sharp knife, cut the mans
throat, removed the piece of meat,
anc-the waiter having returned
quickly inserted the funnel in the
opening. The man was then hastily
conveyed to the hospital, where a sill
yer tube was inserted in the place OF
the funnel, and a few hours later he
was pronounced out of danger

PNEUMONIA A DEADLY scouReE.
Holds the Chief Place in Americas
Mortality Tables


Mortality Tables
The end of the pneumonia season is
at hand. In the mortality tables of
the two chief American cities pneu-
mcnia has for three successive years
scored above the record long held by
tuberculosis. New York has a spe-
cial pneumonia commission which
must report before the autumn cam
paign begins. Chicago has made re-
sistance against the disease by keep
ing the people constantly admonished
about the propagation of respiratory
diseases in general. In both cities
the story of the figures is believed,
and pneumonia is hailed as the new
captain of the men of death" The
agents of death appear to have been
realigned in such a way as vastly to
increase the effectiveness of pneu-
mcnia without markedly diminishing
the effectiveness of the former cham
pion, pulmonary tuberculosis. Tuber-
culosis is still credited with more
than 10 per cent of the total mortality,
while pneumonia, formerly credited
with per cent, or z per cent, now
claims over Is per cent of the total
mortality. The two diseases which
formerly scored together about II per
cent, now score over % per cent of
the total mortality Other diseases
have steadily grown in importance
during the same period, notably can
Ger and Bright's disease Meanwhile
the general death rates have not in
creased, but, on the contrary, have di-
minished, in New York slightly and
in Chicago very markedly.-American

spendthrift Preferred to Miser.

Since thesworld began the free
spender, even though he spends on
nothing productive, has been popular,
while the miser who spends nothing
and therefore reserves all for produc-
tive investment has been anathema-
tized- Certainly, in view of the pres
ent adjustment of human society,
enormous would be the suffering
which would follow if the rich should
determine to return to the simple life
to wear only holden gray and dine
on homely fare Such a change might
be good for the next generation, but
it would be hard on the present one,
and it is in this present one that the
vast majority, however much they
may love posterity, are chiefly inter
ested.-Washington Post

New York System of Pensioning Po-
iicemen Declared Unfair.
Police Commissioner McAdoo of
New York in retiring on pensions a
number of officers has stirred up a
varied assortment of opposition. Some
of the men. veterans of the civil war,
will go into court in an effort to re-
tain their positions They contend
that a mans fitness for police duty
should be determined by a competent
court of record, not by doctors acting
under orders from the department
head The expense incident to the
charges also excites comment 1t is
argued that the pensions are generally
greater than the average incomes of
heads of families and that it is against
public policy to compel the public to
pay a pension to an ablebodied man
whose earning power is in some cases
a great deal more than he received
as a member of the force while doing
full duty An instance is cited of a
policeman who has. been receiving a
pension of 5000 year for many years
and is now in receipt of $1,000 a year
salary in a certain company.

Rumor of Severe Losses Suffered by

Rumor of Severe Losses Suffered by
Aged Financier.
In New York city a story is current
in Wall street that the real reason
for the retirement of Russell Sage
from active participation in business
is not so much his physical condition
as that he has lost to some extent
the keen judgment in affairs of high
finance which was regarded as almost
infallfble. and which had resulted in
the accumulation of one of the largest
fortunes in America.
1t is said that of late years Mr. Sage
has made a number of investments
which not only did not turn out profit
ably, but which entailed heavy losses.
Some estimates place his losses
within the last two or three years at
upwards of S., 600 600
Friends of the aged fnancier had
long been urging him to give up bust
ness and to devote the remaining
years of his life to a we1l-earned rest
He was deaf to all such suggestions
until a succession of losses impressed
on him the fact that he had lost, at
least in some measure, the faculty for
grasping the details of great affairs,
which for 2 generation or more has
been one of his marked Characters
tics.-Boston Post

One night Sir Henry Irving, on get
ting into cab, gave the driver a fine
Havana cigar By the time the end OF
the journey was reached the cabby
was putting on airs. His hat was ON
one side and, sitting bolt upright, he
was smoking with keen enjoyment
an enjoyment that rejoiced the heart
of the actor, who told him he was
glad he liked the cigar Yes 1 do
never dreamed of such tobacco"
Thereupon Irving gave him another
cigar of the same brand, with the in
junction to smoke it after supper.

of such cigar as this in my house

OF

Yachtsmen are hoping for 12-day
record sail in the big race for the
Kaiser's cup from Sandy Hook light
ship to the Lizard, which commenced
May II. There is excellent ground
for such a hope. The Endymion, one
of the cup entries, has already rec
ord of thirteen days and twenty hours
from Sandy Hook to the Needles, and
she was not in racing trim when max
ing this fast run in 1901. The Lizard
is at the southwestern point OF the
English coast, the Needles are west of
the Isle of Wight
But whether the 12-day mark is
reached or not-and if one may swear
by a crew the rest is a matter of what
winds may blow-the race will be the
most interesting ever sailed. 1t is the
first transatlantic event of its kind
since March. 1887, when the Coronet
beat the Dauntless from Bay Ridge
to Queenstown, sailing 2,949 nautical
miles in fourteen days twenty-three
hours and thirty minutes, and 1t is
unique in the number of its entries
Eleven yachts are competing Nom
inally. eight are Americans, two Brit
ish and one German The German en-
try, the Hamburg, was formerly tie
British rainbow. With something
more than three thousand miles to be
sailed and with the boats varying in
length from the big Valhalla's 939

perience is in store for the men who

After-Enects from Grip and Learns
Value of a Blood Remedy.
The grip leaves behind it weakened
vital powers, thin blood, impaired di-
gestion and over-sensitive nervesa
condition that makes the system an easy
prey to pneumonia, bronchitis. rheulna-
tism, nervous prostration, and even con-
SUMPTION
The story told by scores of victims Of
the grip is substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base of the skull; another was left tired,
faint and in every way wretched from
anaernia or scantiness of blood; another
had horrible headaches, was nervous and
couldn't sleep; another was left with
weak lungs, difficulty in breathing and
acute neuralgia In every case relief
was sought in vain until the great blood
builder and nerve-tonic, DR. Williams
Pink Pills, was used For quickness and
therouehness of action nothing is known
that viii approach it.
Mrs Van Scoy makes statement that
supports this claim She says:
at had a severe attack of grip and, be-
fore had fully recovered, rheumatism
set in and tormented me for three
months. I was in q badly rundown
state. Soon after it began was SO lame
for q week that could hardly walk. Ii
kept growing steadily worse and at last
I had to give up completely and for
three weeks was obliged to keep my
bed. Ny knees were 50 stiff couldn't
bend them, and my hands were perfectly
helpless Then the pains began to
threaten my heart and thoroughly
alarmed me-
while was suffering in this way
CHANGED to run across a little book that
told about the merits of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. The statements in it inn
pressed me and led me to buy box These
pills proved the very thing I needed
Improvement set in as soon as began
to take them, and it was very marked by
the time had finished the first box
Four boxes made me well woman"
Mrs Laura M Van Scoy lives at No.

adapted for any other of the diseases that
follow in the train of grip. They are
