A mysterious Arrival.

She boarded the train at Emporia, but

Emporia nose, which means q whole lot /;
but then she had the Eureka coil to her
hair, the Council Grove foot, and the
Strong City walk, and was hard to de-
termiue. But when her mother came
tagging in after her, with two suit cases,
we knew Emporia was her habitat. She
was going to Ed Howe's Corn carnival
at Atchison. She wore tan covert
travelling suit with gloves, shoes, and hat
to match. The car voted her the real
thing. An hour after her arrival in
Atchison she emerged" from the hotel
in stunning suit of voile. At luncheon

The late DR.. Gates B. Billiard, for
more than a generation the leading ply
stefan at St. Johnsbury, Vt, did not al
ways rely upon drugs for a cure. He
was of fine presence and heroic proper
tions, and was very picturesque user of
profane language when occasion made it
expedient.
Being called one night in the dead of
winter to the bedside of farmer who
had been suffering from an incessant at
tack of hiccoughs for three days, and
was near death, he wrapped himself up
in his fur coat, pulled his fur hat down
over his face, having but little visible
besides his eyes and his whiskers, and
hurriedly drove away.
He did not stop for preliminaries, but
entered the house and without a word
passed into the sick room. Before the
invalid knew he was there he jumped on
the bed, grabbed him by the throat, and
raising him from his pillow by the neck,
exclaimed: "D-you! want your

ease, but never hiccOughed again.
