TRAGEDY OF A BROADWAY CAR.
Truly It Is "Everybody for Himself In
New York.

There were six in the seat of the
Broadway surface car, which was too
many. However, everybody who board
ed the car seemed to take fancy to
that particular seat, so some were also
standing. A very small man sat
crouched on the end seat, pretty girl
next to him. The small man seemed
to be very restless, and no wonder,
for all the rest were pushing the pref
ty girl, who necessarily pushed him In
a way that seemed to infer that his
room was better than his company. At
length, unable to endure 1t any longer,
he all at once showed his shoulder
under the rail and fell out, apparently.
Mercy screamed nervous pas
senger, has he committed suicide?"
Il don't know" answered the pretty
girl. "but, anyway, I've got the end
seat.'-N. Y. Press.

JOKE ON THE CONGRESSMAN.
Waiter Drew Wrong Inference from
Guests Attitude.

A Georgia congressman gloefully
tells of an experience during his last
visit to New York.
The representative had put up at an
American-plan hotel. When, upon sit
ting down at dinner the first evening
of his stay, the waiter. obsequiously
handed him bill of fare, the con-
gresham tossed it aside, slipped the
waiter a dollar bill, and said, Bring
me good dinner
The dinner proving satisfactory, the
southern member pursued this plan
during his entire stay in New York.
AS the last tip was given, he men,
toned that he was about to return to
Washington.
Whereupon, the waiter, with an ex-
preston of great earnestness, said:
We'll, sir. when you or any of your
friends that can't read come to New
York, just ask for Dick. "-Harper
Weekly.

SHOULD HAVE SLEEP OUT,
Writer Objects to Custom Of Accusing
Children Early.

Dr. Woods Hutchinson, writing Of
Sleep In the American Magazine, criti-
cizes boarding schools sharply for get
ting young people up too early in the
morning. He says: "A baby or young
child should have absolutely every
minute of sleep that it can be induced
to take, and sleeplessness Is even
more emphatically sign of disease in
children than in adults. The necessity
and capacity for large amounts of re-
freshing sleep persists up to adult life
and the amount required seldom falls
below ten hours before the eighteenth
or twentieth year. To make children
or rapidly growing young adults get
up before they have had their sleep
out, and feel thoroughly rested, is not
merely irrational but cruel, and when
1t Is done as routine practice at
boarding schools, or other institutions,
by those who pretend to be fitted to
have the care Of children it is little
short of criminal"

FOUND OUT.
A Trained Nurse Made Discovery.

No one is in better position to know
the value of food and drink than a
trained nurse.
Speaking of coffee, nurse of Wilkes
Barre, Pa, writes: Il used to drink
strong coffee myself, and suffered
greatly from headaches and indiges-
ton. While on a visit to my brothers
had a good chance to try Postum
Food Coffee, for they drank 1t alto
gether in place of ordinary coffee. In
two weeks after using Postum | found
! was much benefited and finally my
headaches disappeared and also the
Indigestion.
Naturally have since used Postum
among my patients, and have noticed
a marked benefit where coffee has been
left off and Postum used.
II observed curious fact about
Postum when used among mothers 1t
greatly helps the flow of milk in cases
where coffee is inclined to dry it up,
and where tea causes nervousness.
Il find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly. They most
always serve 1t before 1t has been
BOILED long enough. 1t should be boiled

WHY He WANTED LAW.
Man Had to Be Forced Into Paths Of
Righteousness.

Congressman James E. Watson Of
the Sixth Indiana district told story
while in town recently, anent the op-
Grafton of the pure food law, and in
tended to illustrate his expressed
theory that more people would be
good If they had to be.
1T was while we were wrestling
with the pure food bill at Washing
ton," he said, that got letter from
home, written by man from whom
bought big quantity Of maple strip
each year. He urged me to fight for
he pure food bill. Now, couldn't
help remembering, to save my life,
that this man bought five barrels of
brown sugar at the opening of the
maple molasses season. So I wrote
him note suggesting that advocacy
of pure food Measure seemed odd
from a NAM who bought five barrels
of brown sugar before beginning the
manufacture of his pure maple sirup.
Never $eazed him. He turned my
letter over and wrote on the back: I
know it, but | want the law to make
me do right Indianapolis News.

Mr.. JOHNSON NOT TO BLAME.
Good Old Lady Understood How the
Mistake Occurred.

There is a good old lady who cannot
resist speaking we'll Of all her ac-
quaintances.
On Thanksgiving day she told the
colored man who did chores about the
place that he might go into the barn
yard and help himself to a chicken
The man obeyed with alacrity and was
most profuse in his thanks.
In the course of few days the
ladys husband informed her that CD
Thanksgiving day neighbors had seen
Mr.. Johnson seize two choice hens
from the coop.
Il did tell him to take one" con-
fessed the lady regretfully, but, you

One Cause of Drowning.

Renewed attention has been called
to the probable explanation of many
cases of drowning that was some
years ago advanced by DR.. Lowrie, a
British physician, as a result of his
own experience. After cycling on a
hot day, he took swim in cold water,
and was soon seized with headache,
dizziness and drowsiness, while mus
cular effort became feeble and slug
gish. In many similar cases, he be-
lieves, the swimmer loses conscious
ness-or fants-from cerebral anemia.
If there is no help near, the result is
another drowning accident, and the
report of it will probably state that
the victim was seized with cramps
and sank" Swimming in cold water
IS dangerous if the circulation is weak
cned from any cause, especially after
. fast of several hours, or If there Is
any heart trouble.

THREE BOYS HAD ECZEMA.

MY three children had eczema for
five months. A little sore would APP

boy took it. For the first three months

"GONE TO THE DEVIL
London Inn Responsible for Origin of
Common Saying.

The old inns of England have been
responsible for the origin of many
common sayings. An instance of this
is the proverbial phrase He has
gone to the devil" On Fleet street,
London, near Temple Bar, was once
tavern which was known by the strict
ly old-fashioned name, THE Devil and
Saint Dunstan." 1t was famous for its
good dinners and excellent wines, and
received large patronage from the
lawyers of Temple Bar.
1t was Familiarity known as "The
Devil" and when lawyer left his
Office to go there he usually left no
tice on his door, Gone to the Devil"
There were some who patronized the
tavern to the neglect of their business,
and the notice was so regularly exhib-
tied on their doors that it finally came
to be used to characterize the man
who was losing his grip and going to
destruction.-The Sunday Magazine.

A Little courtship Comedy.

A good-looking, well-to-do bachelor
of Manchester was being leased by
some young women of his acquaint-
ance for not being married He said:
I'll marry the one of you whom on
secret vote you elect to be my WIFE
There were nine women in the COM
pany. Each one went into corner
and used great caution in preparing
her ballot and disguised her handwrit-
ing.
The result was that there were nine
votes cast, each receiving one. The
man remains bachelor, the friend
ship is broken up, and the women, all
mortal enemies, united in the one de-
termination that they will not speak to
the man again.-The Taller.

The Peaceful Joy of the River.

myself from the last, by offering to
you short contemplation, first Of riv-
