Wolfe was found to be figuring COM
binations of % and Is. and he would
not talk to his counsel. His case was
% on the list. He was arrest on
August %, picture of female
orchestra which he carries and says is

The name of his attorney contains Is
letters, and so does the name of the
bicycle he is accused of stealing.

is an unwritten law that Office hold

What a Jubilee Is.

Some years ago, before Queen
Victoria death. and about the
time that the queens jubilee was
to be celebrated. the following con-
versation between two old Scotch
women was overhead on a street
corner iii London:
Can we tell me, wumman, what
is it they call jubilee?"
We'll, it's this - said her neigh
Dor. When folks has been mar:

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is infam-
ed you have runbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)

A thanksgiving Yawp.

Dearl Dear.
IT'S almost here;
The glad Thanksgiving Day
When they slay
The pride-pufed gobbler with the re-
neckwear,
Ard kingly air,
sad housewives with artistic eye
Construct the indigestion-breeding pie
OF pumpkin or of mince,
Which since
The first original Thanksgiving Day
They
Have loved to bake
To keep awake
They who have tasted OF their sweets
too deep.
Or if they sleep
See things that never happened in the
night,
And wake in fright
To find they've kicked the kivers off
onto
The floor, and nayhap kicked the wife

Thanksgiving Day,
When in our midst we eager store away
The turkey stuffed with miscellany, and
The other good things of the land,
Including Tom and his side partner,
Jerry,
And egg well nogged, and now and then
a cherry
Immersed in depths of Manhattan
bath.
Until the path
OF life seems strewn with ffesh-blown
flowers,
And thus the hours
We whirl away in gorgipg food and
drink,
And seldom think
Of raising eyes to heaven in thankful
mood,
In gratitude
For all The blessings showered on the
land
From heavens hand.
IS it not so?
Yes? Mo-

with sharp shooting pains that al

to the conclusion that my kidneys
were out of order so procured a box
of Doan's Kidney Pills. They did
the work in short time, clearing
up the kidney secretions and re-
the pain in my back. To

Capt. John A. Brooks, the well

tender his resignation to the gov

A lawyer from one of the in
terror counties of Pennsylvania
went to Philadelphia on some pro-
fessional business. When he re-
turned he told his neighbors about
it. I stopped at one of them

charged me three dollars a day for
my room and meals. Just think
of that; three dollars day! But

AT the recent meeting of gov
erment engineers and representa-
tives of several coast towns of
Texas held at Corpus Christi, a
representative of the National
Lines of Mexico stated that it was
the desire of his road to establish
a deep water port at Corpus, to
furnish an outlet for Mexico
through Tampico and Vera Cruz
into the United States. The
fulfllment of a project like this
would mean the making of Cor
pus, her development into a city
within an incredibly short space
of time. And with a city in the
midst of our country, even in
reach, whether here or at Corpus,
would solve a multitude of prob
lens for our country and give it
an impetus that will require ages
of its own motion. The benefits
that would accrue are too obvious
and numerous to mention but it
would mean, foremostly, that civ
ilization has come to us here in
the wilderness instead of been
created by us after years of labor
and waiting, that the term out
side world would no longer have
a significance for us because we
would be a part and active member
of it, that in the space of FIVE
years we would have undergone a
transition, a change for the better,
usually requiring fifty years of
evolution through patient toll and
endless endeavor and endurance.

his mission the planting of trees.
As a result of his labor, his native

Restaurant Names.

At Montreal the advertising
manager of the Canadian Pacific is
q man named Ham, and the city
ticket office is in charge of a man
named Egg.
The two are fast friends, and if
both happen to be out of town at
once inquiries for Ham and Egg
are frequent.
BY a coincidence, both report to
an official named Bacon, whose
chief clerk is named Brown.
Recently Ham and Egg were
both in Bacon's office. The tele-
phone rang and Brown answered.
The following conversation took
place:
Who is that
This is Brown. Do you want
Bacon?"
No. I don't want bacon, brown
or any other way
We'll, Ham and Egg are here.

No. I don't. Central cut that
