Tom Ochiltree relates that while ho was a representative from Texas, and returning to his home from Washing ton, he observed a large crowd at the station. When tho train stopped he stepped upon the platform and started to address tho crowd. Ho began: ' 'Gentlemen, I thank you for this welcome home.' "Welcome! Thunder!" Interrupted, a constituent "Henry Bacon has just committed suicide in the station." A Story -With a Moral. A Missouri farmer has made a seri ous mistake In exposing himself to the gibes of a heartless world. He saw an advertisement of a "two-dollar fire escape," and the more ho looked, at the advertisement the more" ho wanted the fire escape. 'Tcan't let a bargain like that a-one git away," he murmured through hiB tangly whiskers. And then he sat down and mailed the two-dollar bill. In duo time the fire escape arrived. It was an inexpensive copy of tho Bible. Rubbing It In. While the recently organized choir of tho Sunday school of the Central Presbyterian church of Brooklyn were rehearsing last Saturday night Dr. Carson asked them if they could sug gest a good hymn which they could sing. For a few minutes the singers looked through their books in search of an appropriate one, but were un successful. Finally the silence was broken by some wag saying: "For goodness' sake, Doctor, don't sing 'From Greenland's Icy Mountains with coal at ?20 a ton." Effects of the Strike. See the coal. Where has the coal been? Has the coal been In the coal bin? Is the coal mine mine, or is the coal mine not mine? "If not mine; where Is mine? Has the coal been in the mine, and if the coal bin is mine, why can I not mine in the coal mine for my coal bin? If tho coal in the coal bin was mine, why has not the coal been In tho coal bin instead of in the coal mine that Is not mine? (Publisher's Note. The author of this easy primer for coal consumers was at this point put into his strait jacket for tho evening.) An Inventory. Some time before ho was elected to the presidency Lincoln received a let ter from a New York city firm asking as to tho standing of one of his neigh bors, who had begun a transaction with c. 3 firm. Lincoln's reply was: "Yours of the th received. I am well acquainted with Mr. , and know his circumstances. First of all, ho has a wife and baby; together, they ought to bo worth ?50,000 to any man. Second, ho has an office, in -which there is a table worth $1.50 and three chairs worth, say ?1. Last of all, there is in ono corner a largo rathole, which will bear looking into." True Blue. Bishop Vincent, of tho Methodist church, and one of tho founders of tho Chautauqua circle, tells of an Inci dent that helped to make interesting a summer he spent in the mountains of Tennessee. Strolling thoughtfully along one day, he suddenly found him self In tho midst of a very active camp meeting of negroes. Two or three ministers present recognized him, introduced him to others, and soon the blshop'found himself so pop ular that ho was fairly dragged to the speaker's platform and asked to say something to tho assemblage. Ho consented, and one of tho blacks stepped forward to introduce the un expected visitor. This master of cere monies went right to the point Ho made the gathering know that they were all of one purpose and spirit, not withstanding the difference in com plexion, and wound up as follows: "Now, brethren and sisters, Brother Vincent, as yo' con pee for yo'selves, Is white of face; but at heart, lot me tell yo at heart, I say! he's as black as any of us." Peculiar Republican Prosperity, Republicans delight to talk of their party as the party of prosperity. Tho democrats, they urgo in season and out-of season, are disturbers of tho business interests of the country. With much earnestness they point to tho last panic which the country suffered as tho result of the Wilson bill. Now, it is a fact that tho last panic began a year before the Wilson bill became a law, and this panic is trace able to republican legislation and to nothing cIbo. At tho moment of Cleve land's second inauguration President Harrison had already caused plate to bo engraved for a bond Issue. Th prosperity which tho country has en joyed undor various republican re gimes has been not because, but In spito of republican rule. Whllo it cannot bo said that wo are threatened with a panic at tho present time, the monoy stringency which Is now on is duo to republican misrule. Secretary Shaw, in his ofroring to an ticipate tho interest on government obligations maturing between October 1 and tho end of tho fiscal year, offi cially recognizes tho stringency, and, while ho proposes what may, or may not prove an ndoquato relief, it can not bo said that tho administration has obsorvod tho rule of tho old pro verb that provontlon is better than cure. Itussoll Sago, in a letter published on Friday, puts his finger on one of tho causes of tho stringency, to-wlt, wild cat speculation. This is directly traceable to tho administration's en couragement of trusts by not enforc ing, or attempting to enforce, the Sher man anti-trust law, except against two out of over two hundred of tho trusts which are, and have been, violating it Tho great Pennsylvania coal strllco and tho other strikes which havo tak en place in different parts of tho countrynot a day passes without a strike or a rumor of strike aro evi dences of a condition of business and industry very far removed from tho boasted, republican prosperity. Tho discontent, not of tho laborers alono, but of all classes, is not spor adic, but is universal. It is not on tho wane, but is on tho increase and at a rapid rate. Tho cry of tho citizen who is paying the high prices with small earnings and tight money -is. "If this bo republican prosperity, give us somo other kind." Houston Post OSTRICH LOGIC "When I can't see danger there is no danger." That's the logic of the ostrich which hides its head and exposes Us body to the hunter. There are not a few people who seem to have gone to the ostrich to learn logic. The most dangerous enemies of humanity are the enemies which can't be seen, the disease breeding microbes which infect th blood. It is harder to get the micros out of the blood than to keep it out, but Dr. Pierce's Golden Medicai Discovery docs both, by puri fying the blood and then keeping it pure. If there are eruptions on the skiii, Doug, pim ples, sores or other - siens of impure blood, use Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discov ery, which will purify the blood " and cure th eruptions which come from it. My blood was all out of order, and I had toga to the doctor," writes Mrs, James R. Moss, New Ixjndon, Stanly Co., N.C "lie gave we medi cine which helped me for a short time. Is the winter of 1895 I got worse than I had ever been. My tonsils were enlarged aud my neck swollen all out of shape; ray threat was sore and I could not cure it. My husband went for the doctor. but he gave me no encouragement He helped me a litUe, but it did not last long. He attended me for twelve months, when I heard of a lady whose condition was like mine, who was taking' your medicine and was getting well. So I se cured some of the medicine and began taking it. In one week I was able to do my cooking. Wnea I began taking the medicine I could sit up only a few minutes at a time, and I could rest or sleep only a little while at a time. My throat wa so sore at times I could not even swallow sweet milk, and my tonsils were full of little eating sores. My left side was swollen out of shape and I could hardly get my breath. The doctor said I would not get well, but three bottles of Dr. Place's Golden Medical Discovery, three bottles of his Pellets three bottles of Dr. Sage'st Catarrh Remedy and the use of salt water did the work and cured iac.
