A FELLOW FEELING.
Why She Felt Lenlent Towards the
Drunkard.

A great deal depends on the point Of
view. A good temperance woman was
led. In a very peculiar way, to revise
her somewhat harsh judgment OF tho
poor devil who cannot resist his cups
and sho Is nov the more charitable.
She writes;
For many years | was q great suf-
ferer from asthma Finally my health
got SO poor that | found | could not lie
down. but walked the floor whilst 9TH
ers slept. | got so nervous I could not
rest anywhere.
Specialists told me I must give up
the use OF coffec--tho main thinr that
I always thought gave me some relief.
! consulted our family physician, and
he. being a coffee hond himself. told
me TO pay no attention to their advice.
Coffee had such a charm for me that In
passing restaurant and getting
whln Of the fragrance ! could not resist
n cup, I felt very lculent towards tho
drunkard who could no, pass the sa-
loon. Friends often urged me To try
Postum. but I turned n deaf ear. say
ing: That may do for people TO whom
coffee Is harmful. but not for me-cof-
fee and I will never part
AT last. however. ! bought n pack
age Of Postum. although | was sure I
could not drink Il, | prepared II as
directed. and served II for breakfast.
Well. bitter rs I was against II. ! must
say that never before had I tasted q
more delicious cup Of coffee! From
that day 10 this ,more than two years)
I have never had n desire for the old
coffee. My health soon returned. tho
asthma disappeared. | began to sleep
well and In a short time I gained 20
pounds In weight.
zone day I handed my physician the
tablets he had prescribed for me-. tell
Ing him | had no use for them. He
stayed for dinner. When ! passed him
his coffee cup he remarked: I am glad
to see you were sensible enough not 10
let yourself be persuaded that coffee
was harmful. This Is the best Gun Of
coffee l ever drank he continued: the
trouble is so few people know how to
make good coffee When he got his
<econd cup | told him he was drinking
Postum. He was ~incfedulous. but I
convinced him. and now he uses moth
ing but Postum In his home and has
greatly improved In health" Name

tions. unless you have seen a horse 20
plum crazy. Tho horse kept giving dad
new fancy side steps and jumps until
dad yelled to me TO get a gun and
shoot him or the horse. and he didn't
care which. I yelled TO dad to loosen
up on the bride. and let the horse
run lengthways instead Of sideways.
and I guess he did for the horse 1T out
for some musquite trees. and before !
could get there the horse had run un-
der q limb and scrapcd dad on. aud
when I got there dad was lying under
q tree, trying to pray and swear all 10
wonst, and his spurs were all blood and
hair, and things a horse wears on the
inside OF hisseif, and the horse was
standing not far away. eating grass
and looking At dad, n dad had had his
revolver along he would have killed
the horse. but the horse seemed 10
know he had been foollng with an TN
armed man. got dad rlghted up. and
he rode my pony to town, and had to
lead the buokine horse, and he cat
sopis of the cloth out AZ my pants.'

bought q vide gray cowboy hat, with .

ride that would stir up his patriotic
instincts and his liver. aud all his In
sides. and q real kind man steered dad
to . livery stable.
They saddled up . real nice pony

coming. The horse was roundabout
dered on the back, and when they put
the saddle on the horse bumped ~

they fastened the cinch the horse
sroaned and the crowd all laughed. A

I told him IN 4 dad had eaten horses

he had broken more buoking bronchos

Dad borrowed a pair Of these Mexican
spurs with a wheel In them rs big AZ .

horse by the bride while dad got on.
and I must say he got on like he knew

About tho frat two miles u Of

teal excuse for such action in the
state of continental hall affairs, for
whose success Mrs. Fairbanks is en-
titled to the chief credit. but upon
which work is not yet completed.
The Iowa interest arises from the
fact that the principal rival of Mrs.
Fairbanks is Mrs. Deliver, wife Or
Senator Dolliver. The circle of sena-
torial DANES has hitherto been num-
bered among the stauncn supporters
of Mrs. Fairbanks, but it is rumored
that they are now about to desert her
and rally around one Of their col
league, on the ground that the wife of
the vice president holds no higher
rank than the wife of senator. A
combine between senatorial influence
and other opponents of Mrs. Fairbanks
may result in her defeat.

THE PARASoL TREE.
Old Sunshade Handle, Stuck In the
Ground, Takes Root and Crows.

YORK, Pa, March 10.-The handle
of an old parasoi, which has taken root
in the ground and grown to tree in
the yard of Joseph A. Wisner in this
city, is attracting attention from nat
uralists and men of science. score
of reputable residents testify to the
truthfulness of the story, and only for
fear of vandals the curiosity would be
transplanted to one of the public
squares.
In 1866 the parasol was presented to
Miss Susan Shuey, who afterward
married Jacob Kohler and still lives in
this county. Several years ago Mrs
Kohler utilized the handle to support
a rosebush in ner dooryard. Months
afterward it was discovered that it had
taken root and sprouted. 1t became
an object of curiosity for the entire
neighborhood One night someone
attempted to carry it off, and succeed
ed in tearing away a number of
branches. When Mrs. Kohler moved
away from York she intrusted the
"parasol tree as it was called, to the
care of Mr.. and Mrs. Wisner, who
have carefully transplanted it to their
own yard and nourished it ever since.
1t is asserted that on the night of
Mr.. Kohler's death the metal spring
which had remained in the handle un-
til that time, fell off.
The handle continued to thrive, AMI
is now a good sized young tree. Each
summer it bears beautiful little star
shaped flowers, something like forget
me-nots, and berries. The latter never
ripen, but shrivel before maturity.

Doctor Wainwright of Scranton. an ex
pert in the treatment of miners dis
eases, declared that work in the an
thracite mines makes a man practically
immune from consumption of the
lungs. He finds that the tubercle ba-
and that coal dust may protect the
lungs by stimulating the connective
tissue growth and thus repelling the
bacili. Except for asthma and bron-
chitis, he finds that the miner is one
of the healthies of workers.
