Gene Field Got the Ten.

H. NJ. Lyon IN the Housatonian.
When Eugene Field was spending his
undergraduate days at the University Of
Missouri, the little town OF Columbia, in
which the institution is located, was the
scere Of many of his boyish pranks. and
a number Of the older professors there to-
day remember the humorous antics Of the
young joker. In consequence many a
story is tod concerning Field and his fun,
and none more typical han the following:
While in school, as afterward, Field
was q great hand TO turn out humorous
verses, and once when he had turned out
a particularly choice lot a friend advised
him to send them down to Mr.. ", a
prominent st. Louis publisher of those
times. Field did so. and was gratifed to
learn that they were accepted. Indeed,
they were soon published, and the publish
er sent the poet a sample copy of the mag
azlne containing the cffusion-but no pay.
Field decided to say nothing about 1t for
q While, as he did not wan to ~antagonize
any editors SO early in his career. After
a long wait, however, his patience gave
out, and he wrote to Mr.. X, asking for a
settlement. No reply. Field wrote again
the same week with the same result, and
followed it regularly every few days with
more demands, all teeming with naive wit
and sarcasm. But it was no use.
Then the poet turned to his friends for
aid, and in the depths Of his d.abolical
N'fNtsS 'eo Gil Nl' Id VI
letters from his friends to Mr.. Y. All these
were in the nature of protests-"Dear Sir:
WY don't You pay poor Gene Field what
you owe him; he needs the ten"-ten dol
lars beng about the sum the poet sup
posed was due him.
Dear Mr.. X: What is the matter with
YOU are you broke? If not, it seems to
me you could settle that little bill you
owe Eugene Field. He Is a friend Of mine,
and l would like to see justice lone in the
matter and so on. At First Mr.. X bore
stubbornly up under the load of some ten
or twenty epistles a week, but he capitu-
lated, and RENTED the poet the notorious
$40. Then Field called off his dogs, for in
this case his friends considered toe matter
settled and went on his way rejoicing.
Eve, zen years went By and Field was
working on a western paper, when all Of
o sudden the old humor struck him and a
thought dubbed up in his busy brain.
Going up to the office he wrote tho follow
ing letter to his old friend in ST. Louis:
Dear Mr.. y: Why the devil don't YOU
pay Field that ten dollars? He needs his
laundry. Yours, Eugene
1t is said the publisher paid him another
ten and had the letter framed.

EQUAL to the Occasion.

Congressman Bede Of Minnesota still
looks back with horror to an experience he
had with q Scandinavian audience in his
state last campaign. 1t was up in the pine
woods and the other orator of the even
ing was 4 stalwart Norseman who was to
speak in his native tongue. This "a
failed to arrive and the committeeman
asked Bede: DO you speak Norwegian
stiH?' Bede ~unthinlIingly replied in the
affirmative, though he knew only a few
phrases. When he faced the audience Of
about 200 big blue-oyed chaps of the Ole
and Nels class he determined 10 get out
OF the difficulty as best he could, so he
said: AS many of you as cannot under
stand English stand up" All was ashamed
to make such an acknowledgement and
not q man moved. "All right. my friends"
said Bcde, as it makes me hoarse TO talk
Norwegian for any length of time I'll just
address you in English which you all
know and will appreciate as Well"

Whose Say=so is Best?

With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-so alone as to their cura-
tive value. Of course, such testimony Is
rot that of O diSinterested party and
accordingly Is not TO be given the same
credit as if written from disinterested
motives. DR.. Pierce's medicines. how
ever. form a single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or
praise. Their ingredients are matters of
public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DR.. Pierce's full
confidence. Scores Of leading medical

RHEUMATISM CURED
The Disease Yielded Readily to Or.
Williams Pink Pills After Other
Treatment Failed.

DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure rheuma-
tism because they supply the necessary
elements to the vitiated blood and en-
nble nature to cast out the impurities
and effect a cure. Mrs. A. Baker, of No.
119 Fitch street, Syracuse, N. Y, will
furnish living evidence of the truth Of
this statement. "There has been rheu-
matism in my family ever since 1 can re-
member, she says. my grandmother
was a great sufferer from muscular
rheumatism and my mother also had the
disease III a mild form. About q year
ago I had q hard cold and rheumatism
caught me i'll my left knee. There were
sharp pains, confined to the neighbor-
hood Of the knee and they seemed to go
right into the bone. The pain I suffered
was intense and l also had dizzy spells.
"The doctors called my trouble
uriatic and sciatic rheumatism. When
I didn't get better under their treat
mentmy brother-in-law suggested that I
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I bought
three boxes, and, by the time 1 had
taken them, the pain and dizziness had
entirely left Inc. I wanted to make
sure of a cure SO 1 bought three moro
boxes, but l didn't take quite all of them
as I found that I was entirely cured.
Before I took the pills the pain was
BE severe that l had to cry at times and
when I was cured I was SO thankful and
grateful and l am glad to recommend
them to every one who suffers with
rheumatism
DR.. Williams Pink Pills have cured
severe cases of anamia, sciatica, nervous
ness, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia
and St. Vitus' dance that have not re-
sponded to other modes of treatment.

From the London Express.
A remarkable discovery was made in the
course of an autopsy Of the body of DR..
Jeffrey Owe. Parsons, a young Wimble-
don do"-Cr, who committed suicide while
in a state of temporary insanity.
DR.. Barton said at the inquest that a
common needle was discovered three
quarters of ~ inch above the apex of the
left ventriclc Of the heart, and fixed across
it with The point upward and toward the
right Size.
1t had evidently entered low down in the
front of tn" heart near the apex, as the
scar was plainly visible in the ventricular
wall, but no mark could be found in the
skin co1r@spCi ding with the point Of entry.
The ne IDLE was SC black that it must
have been y the tear; a long time. H.
had been suffering from heart disease fol
five years"
Death was due to acute delirious mania,
consequent On chronic heart disease, and
accelerated by the injuries DR.. Parsons
had received by throwing himself in front
of a train.
