Loop Glty Northwestern 4. W. BURLEIGH, Rubilahar. LOUP CITT, - - NEBRASKA. “Business is war,” says a magazine writer, and Gen Sherman told us what war is.. “Can a husband be cruel to his wife by too much kindness?” Well, few husbands are. The principal thing noticeable about women's attire this fall is its multifariousness. A Chicago pugilist is writing popular songs. Prize fighting is a fearfully de moralizing pursuit. We knew it would come some day. Somebody wants photography taught in the public schools. Sergius Witte, after looking over New York City, declared it a “clearing house of undigested nationalities.” Miss Susan P. Fowler of Vineland. N. J., has worn trousers for fifty years, and expects to die with them on. As Rockefeller says, money is not the only thing in the world. There are mumps, measies and banana skins. People say they might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, but that only shows lack of discrimination in appetite. Kissing may be dangerous, as that doctor says, but you may have noticed that more people haven't died from it than have. Courts uphold a Buffalo man who put a rattrap in his trousers pocket and caught his wife. Dissenting opin ion filed by wife. Diamonds have gone up again, but this is a hardship that isn’t likely to bother the man whose last year’s coal bill is still unpaid. No one need have any difficulty in identifying New York after this. It is the town that holds the world’s baseball championship. The wages of sin remain the same as heretofore, but frequently the sin ner has to wait a long time to get what is coming to him. An old man used a “want ad.” to get a wife and then he paid $50,000 to get rid of her. She will testify that “want ads.” bring results. The latest report of the coming mar riage of King Alfonso is semiofficially denied. When you get your invitation to the wedding you’ll be sure. Harry Liberty is in jail at Burling ton, Vt, charged with stealing a horse. Somehow the pun suggested by his name doesn't come out right. A woman is suing for divorce from her husband on the ground that he hasn’t taken a bath for twenty-two years. Naturally she wants to duck him. Now that they have fixed up a rap prochement between France and Ger many the sultan of Morocco will awake to the fact that the drinks are on him. The “anesthetic highball” is likely to become popular, but many chronic sufferers will continue to take the highball without the anesthetic at tachment. A Connecticut man went out to haul his lobster pots, and came back with a live deer. Here, here! Stop that! If this keeps on, we shall all be in the dizzy house. A Pittsburg man who is the father of fourteen boys has adopted a little girl. This case would seem to upset the theory that hope springs eternal in the human breast. It is kind and considerate on the part of Mr. Edison, but the obstinate people of this country will go on pounding their ears and clogging their intakes as heretofore. A farmer in Berks county. Pa., aged 90, has his third set of natural teeth. Imagine the trouble Uncle Methuselah may possibly have had, with thirty or more experiences in cutting teeth. Maybe the ameer of Afghanistan really needs the dentist whom he has summoned from a distance and may be this is merely his wily oriental way of bidding for the world’s sym pathy. A new $10 counterfeit is in circula tion which we are told may be dis tinguished by its size, beir.g longer than the genuine note. What is want ed is a $ 10-bill that will not merely look longer, but last longer. A general merchant advertises for a man who is a good saw filer and a bass singer. If the man is expected to sing at his work we’re glad we don’t have to sit around and listen when those two kinds of noises effect a junc ture. Marie Corelli is reported to be dis couraged because she is developing a double chin. That's where Hall Caine has the advantage of Marie. Nobody can tell about his chin, because in looking like Shakespeare he has to have whiskers. The London Athanaeum says it is onlv of late years that the Ixmdoner has awakened to the fact that Lon don is beautiful. If the Londoner is progressing as fast as that he’ll soon be seeing the point of the joke about the grouse in the gun room. Being a married man, Mr. Cleve land doubtless knows the only way to gee the better of a woman in an argu ment is to state your argument in a loud voice and then, as soon as you have finished it, walk out of the room and slam the door.—Chicago JournaL SUFFERINGS UNTOLD. A Kansas City Woman’s Terrible Ex perience with Kidney Sickness. Mrs. Mary Cogin, 20th st and Cleve land ave., Kansas City, Mo., says: was run down, weak, lame and sore. The kidney secre tions were too frequent Then dropsy puffed up my ankles until they were a sight to behold. Doc tors gave me up, but I be gan using Doan’s Kidney Fills, and the remedy cured me so that I have been well ever since, and have had a fine baby, the first in five that was not prema turely born.” Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Mil burn Co., Buffalo, N. T. Producing the Yawn. A characteristic attitude of the fr.tigue of the will, as manifested in attention, is yawning. This arises from a deep, slow and involuntary in spiration by which the lungs are filled with air, which is then slowly expired, the mouth being held open and the glottis slightly shut so as to produce that strnnge characteristic noise which is the dread of orators. Most Unfortunate of Habits. The constant nagging, querulous ness, complaining, dissatisfaction and the inveterate habit of seeing and speaking about the disagreeable side of things are traits which will embit ter the finest natures, and in the end ruin the spirit and character of those who are subject to unreasonable and contemptible caviling and complaint. Novel Train Pilot. A train from Fenny Compton, War wickshire, England, to Kineton ar rived at its destination twenty min utes late one day recently, in conse quence of a horse trotting in front of the train the whole way. Affects Age of Horses. Civilization is said to have reduced the life of the horse, and at twenty six the domestic animal is as old as though he had lived thirty years in a free state. A Teacner's Testimony. Hinton, Ky., Oct. 30th.—(Special.) —It has long been claimed that Dia betes is incurable, but Mr. E. J. Thompson, teacher in the Hinton school, has pleasing evidence to the contrary. Mr. Thompson had Diabe tes. He took Dodd’s Kidney Pills and Is cured. In a statement he makes regarding the cure Mr. Thompson ■ays: ‘‘I was troubled with my kidneys for more than two years and was treated by two of the best doctors in this part of the state. They claimed I had Diabetes and there was little to be done for me. Then I started to use Dodd’s Kidney Pills and what they did for me was wonderful. It is en tirely owing to Dodd’s Kidney Pills that I am now enjoying good health." Many doctors still maintain that Di abetes is ir urable. But Diabetes is a kidney disease and the kidney disease that Dodd’s Kidney Pills will not cure has yet to be discovered. Peculiar Chinese Medicines. A Chinese medicine book, dating back to the Wing dynasty (1568-1644) contains no less than 28,739 receipts. Materials of the Materia Medica Si nensis consists of vegetables, miner als and articles belonging to the ani mal kingdom, such, for instance, as dragons’ teeth, centipedes, scorpions, Spanish flies, roaches, beetles, tad poles, etc. Whistling Disliked by Sailors. Whistling is thought very unlucky by sailors, as it is supposed to raise an unfavorable wind. This supersti tion is, perhaps, to be traced to the practice of whistling for winds, com mon to many nations in days gone by. A whistling woman is a sure sign to a sailor of coming disaster, wreckage and so on. Samples of Enthusiasm. Michael Angelo was so filled with enthusiasm in his art, so afraid that money might taint his brush, that he refused to accept any pay whatever for his masterpieces in the Vatican and St. Peter’s. Napoleon’s enthu siasm banished the word “impossible” from his dictionary. Alas! Vanishing Man. Man, like the oojum, is softly, if not silently, fading away. One hesitates to say that he may one day be as ex tinct as the dodo, but at all events we are told that he will be literally no where as compared with the woman of the future.—London Lady’s Picto rial. FUNNY People Will Drink Coffee When It “Does Such Things.” "I began to use Postum because the old kind of coffee had so poisoned my whole system that I was on the point of breaking down, and the doctor warned me that I must quit it. My chief ailment was nervousness and heart trouble. Any unexpected noise would cause me the most painful palpitation, make me faint and weak. "I had heard of Postum and began to drink it when I left off the old cof fee. It began to help me just as soon as the old effects of the other kind of coffee passed away. It did not stim ulate me for a while, and then leave me weak and nervous as coffee used to do. Instead of that it built up my strength and supplied a constant vigor to my system which 1 can always re ly on. It enables me to do the big gest kind of a day's work without getting tired. All the heart trouble, etc., has passeu away. “I give it freely to all my children, from the youngest to the oldest, and it keeps them all healthy and hearty.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There s a reason. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. Won by Waiting. The luncheon service had been par ticularly slow, but none the less did uncle Harry leave a quarter by his plate for the waiter. Wherefore small Reginald asked: “Why did you give the man money, uncle?" * “For waiting,” came the answer. “You ought to have divided between us; we did the waiting,” said small Reginald.—Lippincott’s Magazine. Turn About. “Percy,” said the Rev. Mr. Goodman, “I hear you are going to marry one of the charming young members of my flock. I congratulate you.” “Thank you,” said the young man. “By the way—er—Mr. Goodman, I con gratulate you, too.” “Me?” "Yes, sir. We’re going to get you to marry us, you know.” Dangerous Stuff. "Did you get a taste of that Rus sian vodka that Jim Murchison brought home from Manchuria?” "No. Pretty powerful, isn't it?” “I should say it was! You know John Mildly?” “Yes.” "Well, he drank only half a wine glass of it and then went home and ordered his mother-in-law to leave the house,” A Poultry Mill. Mary’s father was trying the exper iment of raising chickens with an in cubator in his barn. The neighbors were much interested in this experi ment and, meeting Mary, one of them asked: "Mary, have you any little chickens at your house vet?” “No. but we're makin' some,” replied the little maiden.—Lippincott’s. FORCE OF HAB!'*' Fuller Trouble—How did yer first come ter be a tramp? Fuller Woe—Well, yer see I had an automobile, an’ I had ter walk home so often dat I got used to it. The Reason Why. The wedding ceremony was at an end. Mamma sniffed convulsively and the bride dabbed at her pretty eyes with a filmy handkerchief. One of the bridesmaids was also affected to tears. ‘‘Why do you weep?” asked a groomsman. “It’s eoi your wedding." The girl looked at him scornfully. "That’s the answer!” she snapped. Making Amends. “Oh, George!” exclaimed the fair maiden, as he grasped her hand, “you are too strenuous. Did you notice how you made my poor finger crack?” “Yes, Dora,” said George, full of con trition, “I noticed it. And it didn’t seem to have the right ring about it, either, did it?” I.ater, however, he found a way to make good that deficiency. I - "Them” Not “It." Dumley—“Say, old man, I bought l birthday present for my fiancee to-day and I wish you'd take it home and let your wife see it.” Benedick—“What for?” Dumley—“Well, when I looked at the thing in the store I thought it was a necklace, but they sent a pair of them home and I'm sure they’re not bracelets.” Very Likely. McJigger—Of course Noah must have taken bees with him. Thingbumbob—Oh, of course. McJigger—Just think how they must have stung the animals as they flew about. Thingumbob—Oh, I guess Noah had sense enough to keep them in the arc hives. , Couldn’t Deny It. The venerable college president had been invited to address the Bachelor Girl s club, numbering a hundred or more. “I see now," he said, looking around at the fair young faces and sparkling eyes before him, "that Mr. Rockefel ler is right when he says the country is still full of opportunities for our young men." Unsympathetic. “Please, listen, madam,” begged the hobo, “to the sad story of an unfor tunate man. Seven years ago I was wrecked on a desert island in the Pa cific. My mates were all drowned, but I was washed ashcfre—” “And you haven't been washed since —I see,” said the lady, flippantly With a hopeless sigh he turned away. Happy Land! Bishop Goodman—Only think, chil dren! In Africa there are 10,000,000 square miles of territory without a single Sunday school where little boys and girls can spend their Sundays. Now, what should we all try and save our money and do? Class (in ecstatic union)—Go to Africa!—Stray Stories. Impressing it Upon Him. Amusement was caused at Darwen by constable Bradshaw’s description of how he executed a warrant. The man he wanted flung a boot at his head. “So,” said Bradshaw, “I laid him face downward on the floor and sat on him while I read the war rant. I weigh 230 pounds.”—London News. All the Traffic W»jld Bear. First cabman—What did you charge that stranger for driving him around the corner to the hotel? Second cabman—Four dollars and ninety-seven cents. “Why didn’t you make it an even $5?” “Because $4.97 was all he had.”— Lippincott’s. Real or Fancied. "What can I do for you, sir?” ask ed the drug clerk. “Well,” replied the man, "my rcom was full of rats last night, and i want-” “Yes, sir,’ interrupted the bright clerk, “bromo for yourself or strych nine for them.”—Catholic Standard and Times. Tony's Vaulting Ambition. Tony, the bootblack, aged 11, was cleaning the broker's shoes, says the New York Sun. The broker had been on the right side of the market that day and was disposed to be friendly. "Tony,” he asked, “what would you like to be when you grow up?” “I’d lika to be treesurer of the whola damn worl’,” was the stagger ing reply. Her Scheme. ‘‘Papa says he is afraid the money you inherited from your father is tainted.” “Does he. And what am I going to do about it?” "Well, I suggested to papa that if he’d let me marry you I’d soon put it where the taint couldn’t affect it.” Made the Stove Preach. “De preacher wuzn’t feelin’ good las’ meetin’ day. an’ he made de stove preach de sermon.” “Made de stove preach?” “Yes—made it redhot from top to bottom an’ den tol’ de sinners ter take a good look at it an’ go ter thinkin’!”—Atlanta Constitution. Omissions of History. The great fish had cast Jonah forth upon the dry land. “I am much obliged to you,” said Jonah. “Still, I feel that I have been imposed upon. I paid those fellows in the ship for a first-class passage, and you have brought me here in the steer age.” Kind of Help He Needed. “Wan’t t’ put adv-tizhment in your paper,” said the bibulous man. ‘‘Musht have shomebody take care me.” “Yes,” replied the clerk. “You want to advertise for a valet?” “No. Better shay: ‘Wanted— Shnake charmer.’ ” No More Forthcoming. "Of course, George,” said the ex travagant wife, “I’m obliged to you for the money you gave me, but really it -won’t buy me the fur coat I want.” “Well,” replied the great brute, “you’ll have to make it go as ‘fur' as you can.” Not Saying Things by Halves. Author—Is it true that you say my latest is the worst book I ever wrote? Critical Acquaintance — Nonsense, ray dear fellow! What I said was that it- was the worst book anybody ever wrote, not you in particular.—Stray Stories. Whew! “So she’s engaged, eh? That mere ly goes to prove the truth of what I have always contended, that no mat ter how big a freak a girl is there is a mate for her somewhere in the wide world. Who is she going to marry?” “Me.” Willing to Help Out. "Mamma,” said little Elsie, who had heard her papa discussing household economics, "we have to be very sav ing, don't we?” “Yes. dear; but come now, take your cod liver oil and-” “But I was just thinking suppose we 'conomize on cod liver oil!” What's the Use. Miss Passay—I don’t see why any woman should try to conceal her age. Now, I'm willing all the time to let people know I’m 25. Miss Pepprey—But does it do any good? You know, Lincoln said: “You can’t fool all the people all the time.” Keeping His Word. “Yes, her father told me he would do all he could to prevent our mar riage.” “Is he keeping his word?” “He is. Yesterday afternoon he went into bankruptcy and in the even ing he married the cook.” WHY HE FLED. McNabb (about to partake of the bounty)—What business does .yer old man carry on around here? Kind Lady—He’s the manufacturer of a famous rat killer. Bothering the Angels. “You reckon de angels hears de po’ man w’en he prays?” "Cose, dey do; dat's de cause er thunder, which is nuttin’ mo' dan de angels growlin’ kaze dey can’t git no rest.”—Atlanta Constitution. A College Education. “Now that your son’s in college I suppose he'll be gettim? exclusive; he’ll be getting into the 400.” “Oh, he’s more exclusive than that; he’s on the nine already. ’ Then He Changed His Mind. Howell—A palmist told me yester day that I should rule rather than obey. Powell—Did you believe it? Howell—Yes, until I happened to think that I had a wife. Poor Philadelphia. “The Declaration of Independence was signed in Philadelphia, wasn’t it, pa?” “Yes, and nothing has been done there sice?" Great Scheme. "He makes love to summer girls In the winter time and ho winter giris in the summer.’ “What’s the Idea?” "Thinks they come a little cheaper when they're out of season.” Gone. Tess—“Yes, she said her husband married her for her beauty. What do you think of that?” Jess—Well, I think her husband must feel like a widower now.” Telling the Truth. Mrs. Jayback—Henry, I cleaned out your wardrobe to-day and there were dozens of empty bottles on the shelves. How did they get there? Mr. Jayback—Dunno. Never bought an empty bottle in my life. Wifely Wit. Mr. McSosh—Great guns! I’m all out of breath. Mrs. McSosh—Well, when you lay In a new supply, get a fresher brand, will you?” In the Near Future. "How did Subbubs meet his fate, anyway?" asked th» first man. “I believe,” replied the other, "some careless fellow suburbanite dropped a lighted cigarette s’irnp on the gas bag of Subbubs’ flying machine.” An Opinion. He says his motto is ‘Live and learn.’ ” “Well, if he isn't more successful at the former than the latter we’ll be go ing to his funeral soon.” His Average. “Say, Cap, they claim we lynched the wrong man.” “Eh? That’s funny. But don’t you worry. It ain’t spoiled my average yit. I’m alius sure to hit it right three times out of five.” By Way of Excuse. Crawford—"What makes that sen ator so dishonest?” Crabshaw—“He says he is merely getting back the money it cost him to be elected.” KtEF OUT OF KIJTS NARROWMINDED PERSON NEVER IS POPULAR. At Least Have Some Form of Diversi fied Interest on Which You Can Converse With a. Friend—Mistakes of Some Women. Do you live in a rut? Women are very apt to do so, although the ma jority of them are loth to admit it. Narrowmindedness, which is so often a result of a life spent within con tracted limits, is common to women, they say, but the accused will answer, “Why, my life is not narrow! I have my house, or my profession, or my social circle. Do you call that living in a rut?” Any or all of these interests may. however, result in stagnation, mental ly ar.d physically, and, what is worse, conversationally. Either a woman or a man is at liberty to devote all of his or her interest to a certain object But what about the friends of that person? One may have a sympathet ic interest in a friend’s occupation or in her children, or in her bridge play ing, but one occasionally becomes a little wearied of a repetition, a con stant recurrence to that pet subject of the innocent but shortsighted worn an who harps eternally upon one sub ject. She devotes her mind and on ergies to that subject to the exclusion of all others. She dreams of it, she ponders over it and only too readily she reverts to it so constantly that her friends at last wish themselves miles away. A schoolgirl is apt. to be blamed be cause her conversation is limited tc her school—her friends there and hei studies and pleasures, which are shad owed by the walls of the schoolhouse But is her mother free from blamr when she herself finds a continual source of conversation in her servants and her household gods? Docs it in terest her friends any more to discuss the children’s bright sayings, to praise her waitress’ neatness and her cook'a superiority, than to listen to a school girl’s prattle? The society devotee is quite as apt to overdo the matter as her more do mestic sister, and the woman with a profession talks shop" entirely too much as a rule. But she should not allow herself to dwell entirely upon one phase of life There is plenty of interest in other people's affairs, there ate gay and ab sorbing pictures in the vista of daily life, and every woman should watch herself carefully lest she fall into a rut of one sort or another. It is sur prising to find how readily the habit is formed—mere readily, of course, by women than by men, as the latter are thrown more into the world’s hap penings. A woman should ever beware of making herself the central subject of her talk—her home, her profession, her health, liow naturally she comes to consider them. And it is quite nat ural that she should. But before she burdens her friends too much with her history let her stop and wonder whether she would like to listen to her friend Mrs. X. and her personal troubles or her sewing society prob lems for hours at a stretch. It is not meant by this that one should not speak of or ask sympathy in one's own interests, hut there is a limit to patience, and if a woman must have a “hobby” she should r.ot expect her friends to ride it constantly, too. —Philadelphia Ledger. Are Japanese the Lost Tribes! Are the Japanese the lost ten tribes at tsrael? The Jewish World revives this old theory, remarking that it was probably inevitable that they should be sought in the Japanese in view of i ;he fact that the-’ 'museums of Japan contain numerous engravings purpos ing to show the landing of Jews in Nippon. One of the pictures cited is said to show a procession in which the ark is discernible and in which the priests wear hats of biblical pat tern. Another depicts Solomon in the act of receiving gifts from the queen of Sheba, while—and this is regarded as the most conclusive of all—the founder of Japan’s dynasty of 12fi em perors bore the same name (Osea) as the last king of Israel (Hoshea), his contemporary.

Mr. Kenney has actually escaped from the paralytic’s fate to which he seemed a short time ago hopelessly doomed The surprising report has been fully verified and some important details secured in a personal interview with the recent suf. ferer. “The doctor,” said Mr. Kenney, "told me that if I wanted to live any length of time I would have to give up work al together, and he told my friends that the paralysis which hart begun would m time involve my whole body.” “Just how were you a 111 toted at thi9 time?” Mr. Kenney wag asked. Well, I had first hot, and then cold and clammy feelings, and at times my body felt as if needles were being stuck into it. These sensations were followed by terrible pains, and again I woulo have no feeling at all, but a unin hues* won d come over me, and I would not be able 'o move. The most agonizing tortures cane* from headaches and a pain in the spine. “ Night after night I could not get n y natural sleep and my system was wrecked by the strain of torturing pains and tin* effect of the opiates I was forced to take I to induce sleep. As I look back on the terrible suffering I endured during this period I often wonder how 1 retained my reason through it all. “ But relief came quickly when I was induced to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. The very first b •eemed to help me, and seven Ixixes made me entirely well. Therecan benodonbt about the thoroughness of my cure, for I have worked steadily ever since and that 1 is nearly four years. ” 1 Mr. Iveuney is at present employed by the Merrimac Hat Company and resides at 101 Anbiu street, Amesbury, Miss, l The remedy which he used with such satisfactory results, is sold by all rirug S'sts. or direct by the Dr. Williams ediciue Company, Schenectady, N Y. i Many a good name has been given the tar and feather degree by idle gos sip.
