TiIIman Is Identified.

Senator Tillman tells a story on
himself as to how be was identified by
a post office money order clerk when
he first arrived at the capital city.
After being in the city few days
he dropped in at the post office to cash
a money order.
DO you know any one here who
could identify you?" asked the clerk.
We'll, no." the senator answered.
Is that necessary? am Ben Till
man Of South Carolina"
The clerk smiled, then asked the
senator if he didn't have some letters
or papers that would make him known
10 the post Office authorities.
The senator had on new suit that
morning, and had neglected to trans
Ter his letters, but he had his pocket
book with him. Digging down in his
trousers pocket, he drew forth his
wallet and proceeded to search for an
arucle of Identification, but could find
aothlng but a small photograph OF
himself.

HAD NERVE, BUT NO MONEY.
oniucky Mans Modest Request for
.Pecuniary Assistance.

Raymond Hitchcock, the comedian,
while in New Orleans a few months
ago, took the opportunity of going to
the races. During the afternoon he
cashed several tickets, the result of
good guesses. He was feeling happy
after the last race, and started for
the automobile which was to convey
him back to his hotel. AS he was
about to climb into the machine he
felt a hand on his arm, and a man
shouted in his ear:
Hello, Hitchcock, how are you?
Hear you put crimp in the bookies
to-day"
Hitchcock blushed and shook hands
sheepishly, not recognizing the man,
and not wishing to show it,
Say, | want to speak to you con-
fdentially," said the stranger.
"All right; what is it?" asked the
comedian
We'll, | am up against some hard
luck to-day. They cleaned me and |
want to get home. Now, don't let
any one Of these people see YOU but
slip me enough for car fare, will
you?"
Sure" said Hitchcock, placing his
hand in his pocket. Then he paused
and queried: Where do you live?"
Vancouver" was the answer.
Hitchcock took flying leap for his
machine, and unless the visitors at
New Orleans are more gullible, the
fmpecunious one is still looking fol-
car fare.-Harper's Weekly.

Maine Woman Has Pet Deer.

Mrs. Nellie Smith, of Sebec, Me-,

great pet of it. 1t was given TO her
by lumberman, who overlook it in
the deep snow and caught it in his
arms when 1t was no larger than a
cat, except for its legs. 1t has always
been perfectly tame and domesticated,
never having known anything of the
wild life of it's kind, but runs about
the premises unrestrained, having it's
place in the stable on cold nights
The deer are numerous around Sebec,

ROMANTIC DEVONSHlRE.
The Land Made Famous by PhiIpotts'
Novels.

Philpotts has made us familiar with
romantic Devonshire, in his fascinating
novels, "The River" children of the
Mist" etc. The characters are very
human; the people there drink coffee
with the same results as elsewhere. A
writer at Rock House, Orchard Hill,
Bideford, North Devon, states:
For 80 years l drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some years
ago | found that it was producing indl-
gestion and heartburn, and was max
ing me restless at night. These symp-
toms were followed by brain flag and
a sluggish mental condition.
when 1 realized this, made up my
mind to quit drinking coffee and
having. read of Postum, | concluded to
try it. | had it carefully made, accord
ing to directions, and found to my
agreeable surprise at the end OF
week, that l no longer suffered from
either indigestion, heartburn, or brain
fag. and that could drink it at night
and secure restful and refreshing
sleep.
"Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use of the old kind OF
coffee, growing fonder and fonder OF
Postum as time goes on. My digestive
organs certainly do their work much
better now than before, result due
to Postum Food Coffee, | am satisfied.
GAS a table beverage we find (for all
the members of my family use it, that
when properly made it is most refresh
ing and agreeable, Of delicious flavor
and aroma. Vigilance is, however,
necessary to secure this, for unless the
servants are watched they are likely
to neglect the thorough boiling when
IT must have in order to extract the
goodness from the cereal" Name given

Lon,t see that, with all our boosted

occuracv of their vital statistics, and
We have whole Libraries of genealogi-
ca1 works-dry enough most of them
are too. But the individual family
record. such as was kept few gen.
srations ago, is very decidedly miss
ing and it's pity that such is the
case.
"For one thing, the list of births,
marriages and deaths that were kept
