A Joke That Failed Twice.

Miss Adelbert had just returned
from a vacation spent at tiny viii
lage on the Maine coast. In recount
ing her experiences she talked some.
what for the benefit of a cousin, a
quiet person, who was visiting her
city relatives for the first time in
many years.
There was just one store in the
place. said Miss Adelbert, "and they
kept everything, that is everything
they had to keep.
Zone day | went in to buy some
soap, and just on venture 1 asked
the clerk if they had Browning. He
stared at me a second, then went off
and looked under the counters and
on the shelves.
presently he came back and said,
No, miss, we amt got none. We got
blacking, an we got bluing, an we
got whiting. but We amt got no
browning in the store.
Miss Adelbert had to make sever
al protests to assure her audience that
this really happened. Finally the
cousin asked, gravely, "But. Cousin
Bert, why didn't you say varnish in
the first place ?"

A Boys Pitiable Condition.

Charles Kelly, IA years of age,
who lives with his rrents in Fair
mont, near Richmond, Va, has been
una BILE for seven years to swallow any
solid foods. He weighs about 80
pounds, and, consequent upon his
lack of nourishment, has no muscular
development. This pitiable condition
was brought about when the little pa
tent was a strong and healthy young
ster, 7 years old. One day by mis-
take he drank a diluted solution of
I've, or caustic potash, which is used
in making soap. The corrosive pow
er of lie, as rule, brings about fatal
results. In this case, however, the
solution was greatly diluted and rem
edies were applied at once. Proba-
bly, irritated by the poison and the
emetics hurriedly used, the little fell
lows throat contracted, cutting off all
communications with the digestive or
gans. A number Of operations proved
unsuccessful, the patient wasting away
to mere shadow. At last the plan
of feeding him with a silver spoon
through an incision in the stomach
was adopted. This and his ability to
breathe have kept him alive Occa-
sionally he can swallow little water.

Just then third boy came swirl

Horse Talk


One of the most important things
in the training OF a colt is that be
should have good mouth.
Great care should be had, for when
he is first being driven around with
only harness on. his mouth may be
spoiled.
The first thing to secure is a senEi-
tive mouth.
If a colt does not obey on the in
slant, there must be no Jerking of the
reins.
Training colt is great lesson in
self. control; for if the driver loses
acknowledges in temperate at
once loses control of the colt.
A hot-headed man will never gain
the confidence of a horse, and he
should never be in the barn with the
colt.
The first thing to teach colt is a
prompt, energetic walk.
Never drive a colt with slow
walker, or one slow to obey the word.
Promptness in obeying the word
has saved many an accident. There
ia nothing so unsafe on the road as a
Junk head.
Put the young horses in work very
carefully. Make it very light at first,
and make short hours.
When they get heated they will
begin to fret. Then use common sense
and lots of tin your treatment.
Rapid work uses up weight much more
than slow work, i. e., when only the
same distance is covered.
After the foal is born, feed the mare
carefully; give nourishing, concen.
trated foods. Give very little hay
until the muscles have contracted. A
little care will bring her back to her
original good shape.
See that the collars fit perfectly
while doing the spring work; examine
them every day. A soft horse may
shrink so much in one hard, not day 8
work that the collar will be too loose
and large and injure the shoulders.
Such injuries are often serious and
costly.

VIII Destroy Old Freight Cars.

Tue Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
following the example OF the Penn
sylvania, will retire all small capacity
cars and ether cars which are so worn
out as to demand expensive repairing
Orders have been issued from the
Office of General Superintendent OF
Motive Power J. E Muhlfeld, of the
Baltimore and Ohio, that all small ca
pacity cars, cars which carry less than
% tons each, are to be carefully In
spected when they are sent to the
shops, and unless they are in good
condition and fully warrant the cost
of repairs, are to be reduced to scrap
The small cars that are kept in SER
vice will be Ielegated to the branch
lines, and all main line traffic will be
handled in cars Of not less than SO
tons capacity.
The Baltimore and Ohio and the
Southwestern, together, have about
10000 freight cars in operation. 1t
is estimated that from 5000 to 10000
of these are of 20 tons capacity or less,
and the company expect to get the
majority of the small cars out of CON-
mission within the next year or two.
Most of them have been in use for
years and can be used only a short
time on the branch lines before they
will give out entirely. The same
plan of destroying the small cars will
be followed on the Baltimore and Ohio
that is in operation on the Pennsyl-
vania railroad. As fast as the worth
less cars are received at the shops and
inspected, they will be burned and
the scrap iron saved.

The Stock Market.

Henry Clews in his Wall street letter of Saturday says:
 In spite of the active and promising condition of general business as well as a satisfactory crop outlook the stock market recorded some positive declines during the week just closed. Liquidation was the cause, prompted by unsatisfac- tory monetary conditions and the evil dent selling of stocks for some time past on a liberal scale by prominent holders The decline was accentuated by the liquid ation of speculative accounts causing a more or less unsettled tone to the gen. eral market. Little attention was paid to record-breaking July disbursements which are usually depended upon to stiff fen values and induce an investment de- mand of more or less importance. At the moment the investment demand is in different, chiefly because shrewd buyers consider that prices have been too high and that, in view of the various conflict ing influences, there may be opportunity to buy below the present level. There is consequently less confidence in the under tone of the market than for sevral months.

Move the Jail.

"I favor moving the county jail to some portion of the city, where 1t would be less of an eyesore, and where the visitor would not see 1t the first thing, said John l.. Parker last night. 'The jail is not a pretty sight, and I do not blame the people in that neghborhood for want ing 1t put somewhere eIse.
 What we want here Is a beautiful Bir- mingham, and one of the first steps to be taken In that direction Is the removal of the county jail. If that was moved and handsome addition to the court house was built, 1t would add great deal to that portion of the city. We need an addition to the court house, for the pres ent building is In a very crowded condi- ton, and few, if any, of the county off cials have sufficient room in which to transact their business
 q think that number of suitable loca- tons might be secured in the outskirts of the city. l think that the location should be close enough to the court house not to cause any great inconvenience In getting the prisoners to and from the jail to the court rooms. A site within half mile of the present location could be secured.

Need of Better Connection.

The Florence Times appeals to the railroads entering that town to give her people better facilities for reach ing neighboring cities. The schedules now in effect give Florence "black eye" among people who travel, says the Times, and woefully handicaps citizens who may have business to transact elsewhere. A trip to Bir- mingham or Nashville means two full days lost even then, only few hours can be spent in either town. Decatur, on the other hand, enjoys convenient schedules, and can reach Birmingham, Montgomery or Nashville with much less time and travel.
 Florence people chafe under the present arrangement, and with good reason. As a matter of fact Flor ence, Sheffield and Tuscumbia are all equally interested in the matter. HiS IHtdHo e pOpuidllOu Ol oolie AO,- 900 people who are denied the privi- lege of visiting Birmingham without annoyance and tiresome delays. These three towns are thriving places, and enjoy fine citizenship. Birmingham would be only too glad of chance to draw them closer The results would be beneficial, both to them selves and to us.
 The Age-Herald trusts that they will not have to va. much longer for a schedule of trains over the Louisville and Nashville and the Northern of Alabama roads, which will put them on an equal footing with oth- CT Alabama towns which enjoy easy communication with Birmingham.

The Free Pass.

"Apropos of the railroad rate legislation I remember very well an amusing incident that occurred in the state constitutional convention held some years previous to the last convention" said ex-Governor w. c. Oates while in the city few days ago.
 "I was a member of that convention, as well as the last one that was held. A man by the name of Balasco was a mem- Der from Walker county.
 "Balasco was hardy. honest fellow, who took broad view of every question, and especially where that question in- fringed on the seeming personal liberties of an American citizen.
 ''The clause prohibiting the issuing of railroad passes to public officials was be- ing discussed and was about to pass on a final vote, when Balasco, after several frantic efforts, secured recognition and delivered himself about as follows: " MT. Chairman, this here free pass business somehow I don't like the perceedn' we are about to pass. 1 am agin and feminist the whole business. It tampers with the liberties of American citizens and is non- constitutional. These free passes belong to the railroads, and if they want to give them away to whomsoever they please, they have a right as free-born American citizens to do 1t.

TO PRESERVE BATTLEFlELDs. Government Will Probably Make York

Norfolk, July 1.-(Special )-The com- mttee on National Parks of the Sons of the American Revolution are greatly en- couraged by the results obtained in hav- ing the battlefelds at Stony Point and Valley Forge preserved as state reserva- tions to be maintained and preserved for ever for the Free engagement of the people of the state"

The recommendation Of the committee Is as follows:
 We recommend the passage of bill by the federal Congress appropriating a reasonable sum of money for the acquir- ing of the battlefield Of Yorktown where the struggle for liberty was successfully terminated. We urge the necessity of passing such legislation at the present Congress of the United States, during which will be celebrated the three hum dradtb apniversarv If the first English settlement in America and the anniversary of the establishment of Anglo Saxon civil ization in the Western Hemisphere

 The graft habit is the tipping habit unduly expanded. It is not a good habit, either, in it's early or its later stage, and when corporations tip na- tional parties it becomes at once a danger to the republic, national vice, that must be rooted out. All tips are given to secure something in return, and when a corporation, a trust, or a plain millionaire. tips national party, he expects Dingleyite privileges to be maintained, or some other class legislation passed, or perhaps he ex- poets some official honor. No matter what it is he expects, his tip calls for something in return.
 Tipping is well nigh universal. Goods are sold through tips. They are moved by tips where they can not be moved in any other way. There are tips in every direction, in every branch of business. We call the big tips graft, but in all essential respects, in all violation of decency and com mon honesty, they are alike. The big and the little tips are alike secret bids tipped to the polls, some to market and all up and down the social scale 1t is the tip that keeps the world active. There is only one thing that
 does not hold out it's hand for tip death, the sole democratic institution in this age of tips.

Pure Ennd Law.

No law enacted by congress touches directly so many people as that known as the pure food measure. It affects virtually every man, woman and child In this country, for there is scarcely any person that does not sometimes eat stuff prepared by manufacturers whose profits are increased by adulter ation. Manufacturers of food supplies are now required to take the public Into their confidence and print or packages sold to the trade the ingred tents of their product.
 The question Is, will the work oi adulteration continue? Adulterants are very often harmless, but in the past consumers were cheated. When one pays for Ilour, ,sugsr, syrup, pepper or what not, one naturally likes to be ieve that he is getting an unadulter ated article. If, however. one prefers to buy food that Is adulterated be cause the cost is much cheaper, well and good. Under the new law every one may ascertain just what one is eating But many of us are old-fash toned enough to prefer the genuine article, even though it cost more money
 The practice of aduteration was based, of course, on greed. Manufac turers who started out with honest purpose found that their competitors were mixing cheap foreign substances with pure food, and in order to hold their own in the trade, the once hon est man became a cheat. Or if it were a case of monopoly when competition was absent, corporate conscience was easily stifled that big profits might be piled up. But from this time or publicity is to prevail, and if adulter Rtion, in any form, continues, pur; food will be much more plentiful thar It has been in the past twenty years
