FATE AND THE FLETcHERs
Intervention That Made II Certain
Hour for Senator'S Death Had
Not Struck.

Senator Duncan u. Fletcher of Flor
ida sought his berth n night on q
sleeping car on the way south from
Washington. Pulling back the cur
tains of a lower nine, he saw that MS
bed was already occupied.
Hi, there!" called the senator.
shaking the stranger by the shoulder.
The sleeper awoke and protested
angrily.

the statesman, "and this is my berth"
You've got nothing on me" an
swered the other. my names Fletcn-
er, and this is my berth"
my full name is Duncan o. Fietcn-
err" the senator elaborated.
SOS NINE" agreed the intruder.
"Ah, 1 see," said the senator, po-
litely. There must have been a mis-
take in reserving the same berth for
two men of the same name. I'll go
into the next sleeping car"
The stranger, by this time, was fully
awake, and proceeded to apologize.
and to offer to give up the berth. This
the senator would not do, but went
into the car ahead, and found a place
to sleep.
An hour later the train was wreck
ed. The car in which the stranger
occupied the lower nine fell through
q trestle, and that Fletcher was
killed. The senator's a was not
damaged at all.-Popular Magazine.

Caring for consumptives.

There are now four special methods
by which consumptive w~orkingmen in
the United States are being cared for.
In such cities as Albany, Elmira and
Binghamton, N. Y, the unions support
a separate pavilion or hospital. In
cities like Hartford, New Britain and
South Manchester, Conn, the work
men contribute towards the mainte-
nance of a fund for the care of con-
sumptives. The employers also con-
tribute to these funds. There are also
two national sanatoria for the treat
ment of tuberculosis owned and oper-
ated by labor unions; n by the In
ternational Typographical union. and
the other by the Printing Freshmen
and Assistants union. In Massachu-
sets, Illinois and elsewhere large cor
porations and manufacturers have
agreed voluntarily to car for all their
consumptive employees for a limited
length Of time.

Tree D~estroyers.

Porcupines are good climbers, and
when unable to get enough apples
wind blown to the ground, swarm a
tree and cut down the finest bearing
limbs as quickly and neatly as a beav-
er can sever the trunk OF a young
hemlock. Besides that, when other
food is scarce they nibbIe the bark
off young apple trees, and can destroy
a newly planted orchard In a short
time. They also are a great enemy to
the young spruce, but why they cut
them is a mystery, as it is not found
that they even eat the tenderest
shoots.

a Bed lest.

Among what may be called death
bed jests, that of the Rev. James Guth-

martyrs, deserves a high place. Lord
Guthries recalls the story in From a
Northern Window" Mr.. Guthries was
executed at the Cross in the High
street. Edinburgh. The night before
he asked for cheese for supper. His
friends wondered, for the physicians
had forbidden him to eat cheese. But

Then the article proceeds to de-
nounce Postum and works into a
fine frenzy, because we have pub
lished facts regarding the effect of
coffee on some people.
The narrowing tale goes on.
Where a few years ago every
body drank coffee, several cups a
day, now we find in every walk in
life people who imagine they can
not drink 1t. (The ~underscoring is
ours.) Burly blacksmiths, carpen-
tiers, Iaborers and athletes have dis
continued or cut down the s Of
coffee; as there is not a person
who reads this and will not be able
to find the same conditions existing
among his own circle Of acquaint-
Ances, is 1t not well for the Brazil
ians to sit up and take notice?"

No Jury.

The big coffee trust, made up OF Brazilian
growers and American importers, has been trying
various tactics to boost the price of coffee and get
more money from the people.
Always the man who is trying to dig extra
money out of the public pocket, on a combination,
hates the man who blocks the game.
Now comes a plaintive bleat from the "exas-
perated" ones.
The Journal of Commerce lately said: "A stir
ring circular has just been issued to the coffee
trade" The article further says:
"The coffee world is discussing what is to be
the future of coffee as a result Of the campaign
of miseducation carried on by the cereal coffee
people. We have before us a letter from one Of
the largest ~roasters in the South asking what can
be done to counterfeit the work Of the enemies
of coffee.

This is one of the highest COM
pliments ever paid to the level-head-

drug caffeine, in coffee. worked dis

Some people haven't the charac-
