FABLES.
Fram the Kiiium Mall ami llroeie.
On nnu occasion n coyote who had
had trouble with his own crowd fell in
witli a stray dog who had also disa
greed with tho rent of tho dogs in his
neighborhood. After a little conversa
tion the dog and wolf decided to call a
convention of all the dissatisfied ani
mals, birds and beasts for tho purpose
of organizing a now party. When the
call was sent cut it mot with hearty
response. On the day set for the
convention thcro was a tremendous
gathering' out in an abandoned field.
Thero woro several horses thero who
had labored under the impression that
tiny were runners or tiotters, but who
had never been fast enough to gel any
where when they wori put on tho track
and having been ruled off wore hot
about the lack of appreciation of their
abili y. Thero weto dogs there who
had made failures as watch dogs nnd
also had demonstrated that they woro
no good as either bird dogs or chasers
of rabbits. There woro cats who
thought thny had talent for music, but
had been repeatedly driven off tho
back yard fonco and forced to mako a
j-ct away in order to avoid brickbats
and other missiles of a destructive
character. There woro rats who had
been forced to abandon cribs of corn,
hens who were hot because they hadn't
been allowed to sit when they wanted
to; skunks who complained because
they wero not admitted into society;
mules who had a kick coming because
the general public objected U their
bray; wolvx'P who claimed that a com
bine hint been f oimed against thcih by
tho kenpcis of sheep to crowd them
eutiiely out of tho mutton business;
foxes who wero dissatisfied because tho
chicken houses were being made so
tight and tho roosts so high that they
(tho foxe) wero being ruined by this
conspiracy against their rights. Among
all the crowd that gathered there was
not one that did not have a roar about
something,
When tlo dog, who had bten the
chief promoter of the movement, called
the crowd to order hu announced that
it had been felt for a long time that
they were getting the worst of it in the
old organization to which they belong
ed nnd that it has boon docided to form
au oreanizntion of the dissatisfied. He
then asked what animal or bird the
assembly would havo for chairman,
and right there trouble commenced.
Tho niulo insisted that he ought to be
the presiding officer on account of his
far-reaching and melodious voice.
Upon hearing this statement the horse
broke into a derisive laugh. The cov
et e suggested that he was the best
speaker in the crowd and if the dele
gates had any sense at all they would
elect htm chairman by a unanimous
voice. A grouchy bulldog insisted that
ho was tho only thing there that was
able to Keep order, aud an eaglo who
bad a sore wing even yet on account of
a shot that ho got while carrying off
a yiung lamb, declared that he was the
only bird fitted by naturo and expor
ienco for runnitig a meeting of that
kind.
As the lime wore on the troublo got
hotter. A sheep made a cliaigo that
the eagle had robbed her of one of her
children and demanded an investiga
tion; the coyote grabbed tho sitting
hen when the rest were not look
ing, but was pursued by the fox, who
insisted that unless tho coyote would
divide he would expose him. Tho
cat watched his chance and made a
jump for tho rnt, when tlm bull dog
mixed in nnd killed both. Thp skunk
looked over the scrapping crowd with
au evil grin and then remarked: "I
think it is time for me to contribute a
() cents to this collection;" the eaglo
with a scream made a dive for a small
bird and the assembly broke up in a
row that was tho warmest that had
ever been seen in that neck of the
woods.
Moial: It is unreasonable to sup
pose that people who can't get along
with their own families can get along
with each other. A lot of kickers will
never make a successful organization.

Jos. FOBL.
The man on the 6tngc who docs the
trick of escaping from firmly tied ropes,
submits to the bonds with a smile. He
knows he can get out of the ropes that
are being knotted. Put the same man in
the woods and let Indian captors bind
him to a tree for torture nnd he would
struggle to the last ngainst the bonds.
When the stomach is diseased there
arc bonds being woven every hour alxnit
the orgaiiB dependent on the stomach
heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. The
folly of mankind is to passively submit
to the fastening of these bonds with no
effort to escape until the pain they cause
arouses fear.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach nnd other
orimii nf iliiri-ction and nutrition. It
cures diseases of heart, liver, lungs, kid
neys and other organs, When these dis
eases, ns is often the case, have their
origin in the diseased stomach.
