1 had a friend who did his duty to himself and others with such zeal that he never went to bed without taking his temperature or got up without drink ing a scientific decoctlon the name and composition of which have forgotten. The flavor, however, was such as ren- Sered the duty performed particularly meritorious. His dietary was based on the most scientific principles. He weighed himself before and after each meal He had his appendix remove'l so as to avoid all risk of appendicitis, and. In short, he So fully realized the duty of being healthy and long lived that he never had time to do anything else or talk about anything else. Un- fortunately he never took that ficSle jade Fortune" Into his calculations, and after only year of striving most manfully to fulfill the duty of being long lived he slipped on a piece of orange peel and fractured the base oi his skun.-Pan Mall Gazette.

Clear poxe. ot spanish Cedar.

'sThe best cigar box Is made Of span ish cedar" said tobacconiSt. "All our Imported cigars come In Spanish cedar boxes. Look here"
 He opened a box of beautiful costly cigars and the odor diTused through the shop was indescribably pleasant, an odor half of tobacco, half, as it seemed, of spices,
 That spicy smell-do you notice itE said the dealer. Well that Is the smell of the Spanish cedar. It communicates itself to the cigars, and so delicate and subtle is it that it actually improves their flavor.
 If we put up our goods In chestnut or walnut or pine boxes the flavor ei the wood, impregnating the tobacco, would ruin the cigars entirely; hence moderately good cigars are put in box that Is quite odorleSS. and the best cigars are put up in this aromatic and costly box. Philadelphia Bulletin.

Mexican etiquette puts on the new comer the responsibility Of making all the social advances. Visitors to any principal Mexican city, whatever their rank, foreign ministers not excepted, must iu solemn print give notice to ev- cry family Of any consideration resi- dent In the municipality that they have arrived and put themselves and their homes at the disposition ot tue resi- dents. Otherwise they will receive no social attention whatever, Intending visitors to that country need Co be equipped with thls knowledge of the customs prevailing therc.

How to Feed pOES,

In an article in the Animals Friend c. Leighton discusses the home treat ment of dogs, the various forms of dis temper and their special treatment To improper food as well as excess in eat Ing he attributes the chief cause Of this malady. "A little bread and milk or a plain biscuit should alone constitute his diet. and no alarm need be felt if the dog refuses to eat His appetite will return with his health" He adds that bones are distinctly harmful and frequently fatal since they loosen the teeth, give them a taste for meat, which puts them of their proper food, and if a splinter Is swallowed it fire Quently becomes impaled In the lungs or intestines or causes stoppage, when their doon. Is sealed and the poor brutes die"

James Hamilton Lewis, formerly oi Seattle, probably attracted more atten tiou in the recent Chicago campaign than any other individual connected with 1t aside from the candidates them selves. He, with the possible eXcep- ton of Clarence c. Darrov, was the most effective cSmpaigner put to the front by the Dunne forces.
 Among the many clever things pub lished about Col. Lewis was the follow ing iu the Chicago Chronicle: The spinach ou his noble chin Is salmon colored, sure as sin,

Collector W. z. Cummings
writes us an open letter, in which
he states that it is, and has been,
circulated, presumably by the OPP
posing candidates or their Jealous
friends, that he Cummings is
away behind in his collections of
taxes for the year 1904. He re-
quests us to publish a statement
showing by actual facts and fig
Sistersville daily oil review. [volume] (Sistersville, W. Va.) 1902-1905, 1905-03-01

false. The total tax on real estate
and personal property in the city
amounts to $4,000, and of this
amount Mr.. Cummings has col
lected and accounted for to the
city the sum of $12,550, leaving a
total balance uncollected at this
time Of only $3.50; out of this
there is to be deducted the delin-
ouent list, which he will be cred
tied for April l, and deducting
that item he will be collected up
with say from 5000 to $3.50 OF
all the tax at this date, and he
has a full month to collect in yet.
Instead of being behind in his COL
lections, the facts are he is away
ahead of any of his predecessors.
He has been an honest and faith
full officer. When the Council al
lows orders Mr.. Cummings has al
ways taken them up, issued a
check for the amount promptly
and delivered the check for the
order without any trouble what
ever to the holder of it. That is
something no other collector has
ever done. He has been kind, in
dulgent and gentlemanly in COL
lecting the taxes. He has collect
ed more of the taxes than has any
other officer. His delinquent list
will be less than 5000. Another
charge made against Mr.. Cum
mings is, that he advertised by
way of notices in the Oil Review
for taxpayers to call and settle
and charged this to city. This IS
true, but in doing this he has only
followed the precedent for years.
We have published a newspaper
here for over twenty years, and
this has always been the custom
1t is not right, but it has always
been done. The matter was
brought to the attention OF the
Council, and since that date Mr..
Cummings has paid his own ad-
vertising. The facts are, Mr.. Cum
mings has been a splendid officer.
His conduct needs no defense. His
opponents are both worthy gen.
tlemen, would no doubt make
faithful and efficient officers, and
are both our friends. But Mr..
Cummings has met with terrible
affection. He is not able to work,
is an honest and worthy citizen,
and this office means great deal
to him. Vote for him. Go to the
convention tomorrow night and
take your neighbor with you, and
see that he is nominated and his
election will follow by an enor-
nous majority. Do this and help
a good man who is down with an
affection he canont nor could not
help.
