Tn. commutsr's Weakness.

"Be a suburbanite ever so truthful,
there is one thing he always lies
about" said the man who has com
muted for many years. ''and that is the
distance from his house to the railway
station. He seems to think he'll be
disgraced If he admits it's over fifteen
minutes walk. though ten chances to
one he has to tumble out of bed good
and early to make his train. Lots Of
men who come to the city with me ev-
cry morning have to allow nearly half
an hour to get to the station. but every
man OF them says nOnchalantly when
the question Is put them. oh. l can
make the station easy in fifteen min
utes' The way they puff and pant
when they Chamber aboard is evidence
enough that they don't make the sta
ton easy. can't imagine what makes
them lie about 1t. II they want to live
miles from the railway station it's no.
body's business but their own. and no.
body cares, but each one seems to think
it Is matter to be carefully concealed.
In all my years of travelling back and
forth l have vet to meet a comn,uter
who admittedly lives over fifteen min
utes' walk from the station, and neg-
er expect to fnd one."-New York

Make 1t Yourself.

There is SO much Rheumatism
here in our neighborhood now
tnat the following advice by an
eminent authority, who writes
ior readers OF a large Eastern
daily paper, will be highly appre-
ciatcd by those who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy
one-half ounce Fluid Extract
Dandelion. one ounce Compound
kargon, three ounces of Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Shake
these well in bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at bedtime; also drink
plenty of good water.
1t is claimed that there are
few victims of this dread and
torturous disease who will fail
to find ready relief in this simple
homemade mixture, and in most
cases a permanent cure is the
result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elimi-
native tissues of the Kidneys SO
that they can filter and strain
from the blood and system the
poisons, acids and waste matter,
which cause not only Rheuma-
tlsm, but numerous other dis
eases. Every man or woman
here who feels that their kidneys
are not healthy and active. or
who suffer from any, urinary
trouble whatever, should not nes-
itate TO make up this mixture. as
it is certain to do much good,
and may save you from much
misery and suffering after while.
Our home druggists say they
will either supply the ingredients
or mix the prescription ready to
take if our readers ask them.

His Little Joke,

There Is an amusing story of high.
land soldier who while lying danger.
ously i'll in hospital expressed a desire
to hear the bagpipes once more before
he died. The hospital doctor agreed,
as the other thirteen inmates of the
ward We're nearly well.
A regimental piper was found to play
the bagpipes, and for long time he
paced the ward, playing tunes of the
home land The next morning the
piper called at the hospital.
"Well, doctor" he inquired, "how Is
my countryman this morning?"
"Very well indeed" replied the doc
tor. "He went to sleep after your en-.
tertalnmcnt, smiling happily, and
awoke this morning new man. He
will rapidly recover now"
Good" said the piper. Good"
But" added the medical man. "the
other thirteen patients are deadw-

In accounting for the rumbling or
rolling Of thunder. which has hereto

smaller flashes. which go to make ~

to the primary sounds of successive

Indian blood in the senate the other

the fact that he has ranch of about

tered the senate. He is versed in red

Owens debate with Senator Curtis it
seemed to the galleries that the feud
between the Kaws and the Cherokees
which existed for generations had bro
ken out afresh and was personified In
the two men. At any rate 1t prompted

blind Senator Gore. to rise and address
the chair

his sightless eyes toward the angered

He avoided figures, however to such
an extent that it is doubtful If the tar
if trainers are any more enlightened
on the steel question tonight than they
were before MI. Carnegie was sworn
in.
Mr.. Carnegie's principal contention
vas that the steel industry needs nc
more protection, that it has reached a
point in it's development. where the
American manufacturers can compete
with the world under free trade condi.
tons. While he claimed that the cost
of labor and production of steel are
less in this country than in other
countries producing steel, Mr.. Carne-
gle gave no figures to support his con
tention. He said Judge Gary told the
committee that the United States
Steel corporation can get along with.
out a tariff on its products and that
that should be sufficient evidence fol
the committee to take off the duty
on steel and iron.

to the district court, under $3.50
bonds, in default of which he was
sent to the county Jail. It is under
stood that he will plead guilty, before
the district court.
Newman is a hop fiend and has
been in the city for several days past.
He was in the drug store a few min
utes before closing up time and was
taking a survey of the store.
He gained entrance to both places
by breaking glass from the back
| doors.
In each al he took only articles
that were easily carried, and made a
speciality of razors and knives.
Fro.l the Fleming Hardware Co,
Newman got rs pearl handled pocket
knives and 43 razors, Of a total value
Of $277.35. These were all restored
to the owner.

about is razors, SO high-priced pocket
knives and a dozen dollar watches.
