TIED UP
F0RMANY HOURS
But When It Gets Loose, Its
Travels Continue Among
Business Houses.

The nimble dollar had a criu1p put
into its nimbleuess Friday afternoon
and Saturday morning, but when ii was
allowed TO get into circulation again
Saturday. il continued its record break
ing travelling among the merchants and
business houses Of the city.
Friday afternoon at 500 the dollar
got into the office Of the Times and it
was not set moving again until Satur-
day morning at 1928, when II was
spent with the SheltOn-Payne Arms
company. This IS the first time any
concern has kept the dollar tied up
since IL was started out a week ago;
il has uniformly been spent with some
other concern Immediately and thus
kept moving upon its mission TO show
the world what a dollar can do when
kept busy
During the week the dollar has made
its way into the pockets Of hundreds Of
business men and has left profit at
each place il stopped II was put into
circulation by the Globe Mills as an
example Of what money does when kept
al home The Herald kept track Of its
movements and gave publicity TO them.
The travels Of the dollar during the
week served as a splendid lesson 70 the
people Of the city. II served a double
purppse-shOwinE that a dollar kept
busy brings profits 20 many people and
that dollar kept at home leaves all
its profits among home people

The Mattreaa.

Some one has been hunting up the history of the mattress. Its beginning was the collection of rags, husks or reeds which were bound together and thrown anywhere to form a resting place for the binds and serfs of the rich. It is suggested that their names of shakedown and makeshift were de rived originally from the Arabic word "matrah." In the middle ages feather beds found favor with the wealthy and the mattress was not used by them. Inventories of estates owned by the American colonists show that mattresses were then worth $2O0 each being made of hair. In England mat. tresses of rabbits hair were once used and vegetable fbers of various kinds have served their turn.

NapoIeon Had Ni,,o Lixs..

The surrender of Napoleon to the captain of the Bellerophon, when that event became known in England, was discredited by many, for at least eight times previously he had been reported dead. The list of his deaths published in n contemporary journal is interest ing. He lost the first of his nine lives in battle on the Dnieper, where he received five mortal wounds, and ex pired as he gave his sword to Prince Kutusoff." Later he was twice drown ed, once while crossing the Mosqua" and again in Moscow, "where he lost his way and fell into a reservoir" During the retreat from Moscow he was suffocated in his tent and a few days later buried 5000 fathoms deep In a fall of snow. Finally he reached Paris, where his exasperated subjects immediately lyn, he'd him. These were some of the many fables concerning Napoleon which found their way Into the newspapers a century ago.-West minister Gazette.

MAN AND HIS LAUGH.
Self Restraint and Its Effects upoF
 Human Emotions.

Self Restraint and Its Effects Upon
 Human Emotions.
 Laughter is a sign of high develop ment The nearer one is to the animal the less one laughs. The more highly developed we become the more do we perceive humor. For laughter, it must be remembered, is sign that an emo ton has suddenly been set free. It is like touch on the trigger of a gun, the gun being self restraint.
 No one ever tells an animal Gin the wild state) that there are certain things that he must not do. There is no direct wants to perform. Consequently the animal has no self restraint
 Man, on the other hand, is surround ed by commandments from babyhood onward. He is always being told by some one, first by his parents, then by the laws of society, that there are things that he must not do. The de- sire to do these things, coupled to the knowledge that he dare not do them, causes tense emotion. The animal lives as the occasion rises. Man is keyed up hy the continuous conflict of occasions.
 1t Is the relief from this keying up that gives rise to laughter. The great CT the tension caused by the delay be- tween impulse and act the funnier does the thing seem which releases it. Something which would seem only moderately funny if it happened in the street becomes screamingiy ludicrous in church Lc~auSe of the tension of feeling that one must be solemn. When a snowfall hits Il silk hat the sight makes one laugh because of the feel ing that. whatever else a silk hat might be intended for. it was not as a target for snowbals. EXaggerations are of ten funny because they twist our emo tion from a usual to an unexpected channel.
 A story teller who laughs at his own jokes always spells his stories. It is the man with the mournful face whose quips seem the merriest. It is an old saying that one must laugh and grow fat" but modern science has learned that we must laugh and grow wise."- New York American.

STAFFORD SPRINGS
 TESTIMONY
Home Proof, Here, There and
 Everywhere.

When you see Doan's Kidney Pills recommended in this paper you most always find the reoommender a Staff ford Springs resident. It's the same everywhere-in 3, 800 towns in the U. s. Forty thousand people publicly thank Doan's. What other kidney remedy can give this proof of merit, honesty and truth? Home testimony must be true or it could not be pub lished here. Read this Stafford Springs recommendation. Then in- sist on having Doan's. You will know what you are getting.
 Mrs. William Irons, Furnace Ave, Stafford Springs, says: "one of our family bothered by the back and kidneys. This trouble continued for long time until we fortunately heard about Doan's Kidney Pills and procured a supply at the Eaton Drug Store. This remedy brought prompt relief and since then there has been no cause for complaint.
 Price 500, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Irons had. Foster Milburn Co., Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

The "Basinv of an Apple.

One end of the apple bears the name of "basin" and contains the remnants of the blossom, sometimes called the eye of the fruit. This part of the ap- pie is deep in some varieties and shal- low and open in others. This is the weakest point in the whole apple as concerns the question of the keeping quality of the fruit. If the basin is shallow and the canal to the core firm ly closed there is much less likelihood of the fruit decaying than when it is deep, and the evident opening connects the center of the fruit with the sur face.
