II never was happier in my>life than I
am at present" remarked n serious-minded
young man at the southeast corner of Six
teenth and Farnant streets yesterday aft
ernoon. He then explained that his ,happi-
ness had been brought about by getting
into that business toward which he felt
inclined and getting out of that calling for
which he had neither love nor enthusiasm.
Nearly two years ago l was induced by
relatives to make an undertaken of myself.
l entered an establishment and worked
hard, but it seemed the harder l worked
the less I cared for the business. All along
I really wanted TO go into the advertising
business. but stuck to the undertaking
work. thinking, perhaps did not know
my own mind. Two weeks ago l said
goodbye to the undertaking shop and am
now at the work really love. / think
one of the tragedies OF life is to find one
self in that business which is not congenial,
and yet I still have q high regard for khe
undertaking profession.

The opportunity &c make a success comes
to every individual at some time in his life,
but it often appears in a disguised form
ard is not recognized until after it has
flown. Failures in life result as often from
poor health as from mismanagement, and
yet people ignore this fact and disregard a
cold until it has settled on their lungs and
pneumonia has resulted or consumption has
been contracted. The opportunity has
passed and 1t Is too late now to remove the
cause. Your chance for success may rest
in curing a cold, and there is nothing you
can procure which acts so quickly as Cham
berlains Cough Remedy. 1t is famous for
its cures Of coughs and colds and can al

tendency of a cold to result in pneumonia

A certain degree Of warmth and personal
feeling was invested in a conversation
between City Clerk Elbourn and his chief
deputy. Sam slmonson, at the city hall
Thursday morning. According to the YER
son Of the city clerk Mr.. Simonson re-
quested additional hands in the ONCE, re-
marking that he had more work than he
could manage with comfort, and had en-
joyed no vacation for a long time The
city clerk retorted that II there was less
politics and more business in the front
ONCE perhaps Simonson would not be
worked so hard. This was taken TO have a
passing reference to the candidacy OF Sam
X. Greenleaf, an attache OF the ONCE, for
the city clerkship. At least Simonson saw
Il in this light. He announced ne was for
Greenleaf. first, last and all the time, not
withstanding the city clerk is out for re-
election. Much additional was said by
both parties but most to the point was the
ultimatum Of Elbourn that II any man in
his department. didn't like his job he could
quit. Mr.. Simonson did not quit. At II 80
Mr.. Greenlesf was having a prolonged con-
versation with street car man and Mr..
Simonson was attending to business some
place else In the building. One clerk was

TICKER IN THE WAR
How q Brave Carolinian Stood an En-
tire Brigade at Bay.

It was the custom during the war
for all the gentlemen who from &
or other disa bilities were not in the
army to visit n soldier h came
to their n~eighborhood wounded, or in
any distress of any kind, and TO minis
ter to their wants as far as possible.
Old Colonel L., of one of u eastern
counties, was one of the most atteh-
tive men in his county to calls OF TINS
old nature. We can see the venerable
gentleman now driving his old gray
horse Oar with one hand and thought
fully stroking his long white beard
with the other, with a basket hlled
with something good, a small bundle
of sugar, a little real coffee, or
something Of the sort. for some poor
fellow who was at home sick or
wounded: or maybe to comfort some
soldiers wife who was in trouble ana
her husband away. Mr.. Bill tucker
lived in the piney woods not Tar
from Colonel LIS plantation. He was
wounded in the arm at Fredericks-
burg. Va. and came hOme on a fur-
Tough. As usual Colonel L. no sooner
heard that Bill was at home and
wounded than old Dan was hitched
to the buggy and a basket Of some
thing good prepared by Mrs. l. BIZ
was not much hurt and vas intensely
fattered at Colonel LIS visit. II hap
pened TO be on Sunday and several OF
the neighbors had dropped in. 50 Bill
Tucker laid himself out TO entertain
his company.
For some time the conversation
consisted of Inquiries after the absent
bows. Finally. during a lull in the
