An Organ Recital

A dozen or more women had gath ed at a home on Walnut street to at tend business meeting of a society to which they belonged. Before they commenced to talk business one of the women had to tell everybody about her recovery from recent operation for appendicitis. After she got through 1t reminded another of an operation she had gone through a few years ago for the same thing, and it took some time to tell about it. That reminded a third of an operation she had once gone through, and when she finished telling it another of the visitors start ed to tell her experience on the oper- atfng table.
 At this moment quiet little wom- an in one corner of the room arose to go.
 q thought" she explained to her hostess, s'that this was to have been a business meeting. but it seems to be an organ recital. ."-Ph Philadelphia Times.

coleridae's imagination.


 From his early youth Coleridge lived in a world of books and dreams, yet his favorite walk seems to have been the Strand, the last place in the world for poet to lose himself in reverie As he strolled down the street he inn agined himself swimming the Helles- pont, the feat of which other poets had written and which the poet Byron was to accomplish later. Once while the mind of Coleridge was thus far from the busy Strand he absently thrust his hands before him in the manner of one swimming. Suddenly one hand came in contact with a gen tleman's pocket.
 The gentleman, thinking to capture a thief, seized the hand and exclaimed: ::
 What! So young and so wicked!'' He accused the poor, poetic boy of an attempt at pocket picking.
 With some fright and few tears the boy explained, and we can imag- inc that words did not fail him who was to become the most brilliant talk CT of his age. The gentleman was de lighted with Coleridge's imagination, which could turn the Strand into the Hellespont. The intelligence of the young Leander made the stranger in- quire into Coleridges tastes, and when he found the boy liked books he open ed for him subscription at the circu- lating library in Cheapside. e.W Westmin- ster Gazette.

AN ITCHING PALM
No Cure for It. Other Forms of
 Itching Preferable.

There is no cure for an itching palm the money k-nd. Even poslam, the new skin discovery, cannot help 1t. But when it comes to eczema, the most annoying of itching skin troubles, pos lam will stop the itching at once and cure the worst cases in a few days. So with hives. rash, scabies split toes, piles, and sca1y scalp, all of which are different forms of eczema, accompan- led by severe itching and caused by imperfect digestion and careless diet.
 Poslam comes in two-dollar jars, but fifty cents worth will answer in cur ing any of the diseases mentioned. It can, be had of any druggist. Jennie Hamilton's Pharmacy makes a spec ialty of it.
 That results are immediate will be amply demonstrated overnight by the use of the experimental sample which the Emergency Laboratories, 32 West Twenty-fifth Street. New York City. will send free by mail. in plain wrap per, to any one who will write for it.

The Rev of Death.

The 'key of death' is apparently a large key which is shown among the weapons at the arsenal at Venice. It was invented by Tibaldo, who, disap- pointed in love, designed this instru- ment for the destruction of his rival. TheAkey is so constructed that the handle may be turned around, reveal izg a small spring, which being press ed a very fine needle is driven with considerable force from the other end. This needle is so very fine that the flesh closes over the wound immediate ly, leaving no mark, but the death of the victim is almost instantaneous.

Protest 10 President by Mich
igan Men Made Public.
OPPOSE LOR|MER MEASURE.
Would Permit Complete Monopoly OF
500 Water Power by Michigan Lake
Superior Power company-Loud
and Fordney Seek Improvement OF
Saginaw River.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Members Of
the Michigan congressional delegation
who escorted a number of Michigan
men TO the White House and fled
with the president a protest against
the passage OF the Lorimer bill, re-
lating TO public works at Sault Ste.
Marie have made public the form of
their objections.
II is asserted that the Lorimer bill
would foster one of the greatest water
power monopolies of the country, ben
efitting primarily the Michigan Lake
Superior Water Power company of
Sault Ste. Marie, which is said TO be
owned by parties who control the
Peoples Gaslight & Coke company OF
Chicago and the Consolidated Gas
company of New York
The measure is declared TO be drawn
so cleverly that its Joker" is hardly
discernible. AS the bill is construed
in the protest, all of the power com.
panies situated south of the st. Mary 5
falls ship canal would be legislated
out of existence, leaving ctGhr field
for the operations of the Michigan
Lake Superior Power company, now
In the hands of receiver, which is
the only power concern situated north
OF the ship canal.
BY legislating competitors out OF
business it is said that the Michigan
Lake Superior Power company could
acquire, without the payment Of dol.
lar TO the United States or TO the
state of Michigan, sufficient water to
create a great horse power. The pro
test sets forth that without more
water In its canal that it at present
has. the companys plant is not worth
much With an ample water supply
its value jumps TO the millions"
A joint effort for the improvement
of the Saginaw river is being made
by Congressman Loud and Fordney of
Michigan. They have each introduced
bill appropriating 100000 to pro
vide a twenty foot channel from Sag.
NAV bay TO Saginaw. This bill will
not pass at this session OF congress,
