Tim's Tlianlcsg.Ylng Dinner. Bloomington Through Hall. Little Tim did such odd jobs as Iio could securfj to aid his mother in mak ing a living for a bumble twain. Their homo was in a tenement in the great city of Chicago , and to reach it it was necessary to go up a flight of stairs in an alley and then along a long balcony until you reached another stair , and so on until you were five stories from the ground. When you got there you saw no soft , warm carpets , nor did you ob serve any pictures or even a lire. The floor of that dark black room was cold and bare and the walls and ceiling were more bare than the lloor , but aside from a few cheap cooking utensils hanging on the walls they were as bare as a pious man's pate. 4 The day before Thanksgiving Tim had sold some papers , blacked some boot1 ? , shoveled some snow off some Tvalks , and when ho went home at even ing he had a dollar and thirty cents , and his mother had earned two dollars that day , so they put their money to gether and Tim's mother said God had been good to them that day , and they could pay their weekly rent and buy ton whole bushels of coal and actually have a fire Thanksgiving evening. Tim had ideas of his own , however. Ho had contracts to shovel the snow off the walks at half a do/en places the next morning , and know ho would have a dollar and a half by noon , so he said to his mother before they retired : "Mara , don't you eat no dinner be fore I come home , for you're going ter be invited out to-morrcr. " "Tim , I'm afraid you are joking , " his mother replied. "No I ain't , mam. Just as sure as I live you're going to bo invited out to- morrer. " Then they slept until morn ing , when Tim arose and went forth in to the crisp cold air to do his work. Ho sold enough papers to yield him half a dollar and "shined" five different men's boots , and by the time ho had began shoveling snow he had already earned a dollar. At eleven o'clock ho had made two dollars , and at once set out for home. On the way he stopped where there was a great crowd , and while he was looking on one of the roughs , who were lighting , iircd a shot from a small pistol. The bullet lodged in Tim's breast , but he never said a word , only turned away and hurried to his mother. "Tim. Tim , what makes you so pale ? " she asked , as he ran into the room. "Oh , you just think so , mam , " he replied. "The snow is so white it makes everybody look pale. There , mam , is a dollar 1 made this morning. " ' "Oh , Tim ! you have had a splendid day , haven't you ? " "Pretty good , mam , but I've made another dollar , and I'm goin' ter invite yeroutter dinner. " "Well , I will go with you , Tim , but where will we go ? " "I've got it a\ 'ged out at one of the bang-up restt r ats , mam down to the Boston , ana wo'll ' go down there and eat a dozen apiece of them whalin' great big Blue Point oysters , with cel ery and pickles , and Saratoga chips , and everything just as nice as you ever saw. " As they went out Tim's mother saw some drops of blood on the snowy bal cony , and spoke of it , but Tim only laughed , and said he guessed it was the blood of the Thanksgiving turkey they did not have. The steaming oysters , nicely brown ed , with all their accompaniments , were set before Tim and his mother , and they eagerly devoured them , but Tim surreptitiously slipped nearly half of his into his mother's plate , one at a time , while she was admiring the luxurious surroundings between bites. "Ain't they good ? " asked Tim. "Oh , Tim ! I'll never forget this din ner as long as I live. " "Well , I'm glad of it mam , for we'll never eat together no more. " Why , Tim , what do you mean ? You are pale. " "Waiter , here's j'our money , " called Tim , gasping. "Mam , I mean 1 mean I'm shot. That was my blood on the landing , mam , but I wanted yer to have a good Thanksgiving dinner 'fore you knew it , 'cause I knowed you' wouldn't eat if I tole yer sooner. I was pale , mam , and I'm pale .now , and my ole boots is a'most full of blood. " The little fellow had been braver than any man on a battle field , and had kept his word , for he was alive when noon came , and he invited his mother out to dinner as he said he would. They called a surgeon , but it was too late. Tim was dead when he arrived , and gave thanks that night in para dise. _ _ For Haifa Iiife-time. Mrs. John Gemmell , Milroy , Miflin Co. , Pa. , in the Spring of 1864 injured her spine and partial paralysis ensued ! For nearly twenty years she was unable to walk. In the 'Spring : of 1883 , she was advised to use SL Jacobs Oil , the great conqueror of pain. The first ap plication gave instantaneous relief. Before the second bottle was exhausted she was able to walk and is cured. To write for all time is the ambition of every author. The man who origi nated the series of negro minstrel jokes is the only one up to to date who has apparently succeeded in his endeavor. Boston Globe. The stand-up shirt collar of the pres ent day is a deuced bore. It catches you right under the ears and turns your hair up until each particular hair on your head stands on end. These collars of chronic rectitudes are sure destruction - ' tion for an innate curiosity you.have nursed for deciphering the reading on house-top signs. It is reported that a curious bet was made on the presidential election in this city. A young lady agreed to give her best fellow as many kisses as Cleveland received electoral votes , provided ho was elected ; the young man fo have two a week until the number was exhausted. He was to give her a present costing as many dollars as Blaine received electo ral votes , if he was elected ; the bet to be paid as soon as the result was offi cially announced. We presume the ' i voung lady will begin to-night to pay her bet It will take two years , ono week and a half to pay it. Knoxville Chronicle. I i \ . A PITIPDL.YATE 1 Itoxr a. TOInlftter'a Good. Deed Landed Slim In an Innane A ylnm Tlio Story of HIM Eicapc. To tiic Editor of the Milwaukee Sentinel : SIR : I have read a good many sto ries of late concerning the confinement of sane persons in lunatic asylums , and I am hereby prompted to relate a bit of personal experience. In the year 1855 , while I was scrying the Methodist Episcopal church in a New England town , a neighbor's house took fire. In common with others , I stood on the edge of the roof , passing buckets of water , exposed to intense heat on one side and freezing winds on the other. I took a fearful cold. For twenty-live years It worked havoc in my physical and mental systems. Nev ertheless , I continued in my ministerial duties. I preached many a sermon when suffering intense agony. At cer tain periods , however , I would bo com paratively well , and then again , my head would get heavy , my breathing labored , my appetite fickle. I would lose interest in life ; feel sleepy at mid- da } ' , and wakeful at midnight. My heart occasionally gave me great con cern. Not knowing to the contrary , I attributed this ill feeling to malaria. But eventually mental strength faded away , and I was utterly prostrated. I was cauterized , cupped , blistered , and treated by many physicians in many different wayd. My case was a puzzle as much to my physicians as to myself. For one of them at first prescribed for delirium tremens , and yet I never had tasted in toxicating liquors. Another said I had brain disease , another spinal difficulty , another nervous prostration , heart dis ease , etc. My mind eventually gave away , and in 1882 I was confined in the Brattle- bore , Vt. , Insane Asylum for six months. When I knew where I was , I demanded instant release. I then made a visit to Oceanic , N. J. , but I had reckoned too much on. my strength. I again lost my reason for a considerable period. That I was in a desperate condition is evident. My blood had become in fected with virus , which inflamed my brain occasionally and doomed me to an early death ; for no physician gave me any hope of cure. I finally found out what my real disorder was , and un dertook my own treatment. In a few months I was restored to such a state of health as I never expected to enjoy. That was over three years ago , and my physical and mental health have re mained intact to this day. Last March I came west , and en gaged in garden farming. In all that time I have not lost a day's work ; have apparently enjoyed the most vigorous health and I expect to live the full term of life. The remedy I used was war- ner's safe cure , and if I should live a thousand years I should never tire of telling its praises. You will confess with me , Mr. Edi tor , that such a change is remarkable. And you will , also , 1 am sure , agree with me , when I say that whatever cre ated such a mental and physical re storation is deserving the highest praise. Verv truly yours , KEV. E. D. HOPKINS. Dodge's Corners , Wis. There are undoubtedly thousands of others who have an experience simi lar to the above , to whom Mr. Hopkins's recital will appeal with persuasive force. Tlio Trouble Safely Over. Stomach trouble is serious business while it lasts ; but what a blessed relief to have it depart ! Mrs. F. G. Wells , of 19 Atlantic street , Hartford , Conn. , writes that she tried Brown's Iron Bit ters for stomach trouble , and that she experienced such relief that the trouble is now entirely over. She recommends this great iron medicine to all who are afflicted. It cures liver and kidney complaint. ' THE HUMOROUS SIDE. The world is a looking glass , and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face. Frown at it and it will in turn look surly upon you. Laugh at it and with it and you will find it to be a jolly , good-natured , most agreeable companion. "Mamma , " said little Mabel , "ought the governess to whip me when I didn't been and gone and done nothing ? " "No , of course not , my child , " replied the mother. "Well , then , she gave me an awful flogging this morning because I didn't do those awful hateful sums. " A Bloomington scientist says this is going to be a very hard winter. He says that the corn husks are thicker ( or thinner ) than usual , and that the moss on the north side of forest trees is heavy and warm. We were not satisfied with his prophecy until we found that the voice of our cat was husky , but now it is plain to be seen just what is going to ail the weather. Bloomington Through Mail. " red trimmed with Irish "Turkey , em broidery , is the thing for children , " says a fashion journal. If the children had anything to say about it their prefer ence undoubtedly would be for turkey boiled trimmed with Irish potatoes. The Judge. When Greek Meets Greek. Buffalo Express. A Buffalo man while in New York re cently descended from the elevated road station at Chatham Square. As. he did so he gazed around for a minute to get his bearings. A bright , spruce young man of pleasing appearance stepped up to him and said : "Why , how are you ? It's a Ion" : time since I've seen you. " The Buffalonian , who is a lawyer , sized the young man up and acknowledged , with about a ton of ice in his manner , that it was a long time. "You don't seem to recognize me , " said the sharper. "No , 1 don't , " was the reply. "I am with Benedict Brothers , you know. " "Oh , what is their business ? " "Dealers in cutlery. " U"H'm , yes ; well why don't you at tend to their business ? " The sharper thought he would , and he did. MK - - - A volume has lately been published on "What to wear. " Now what we want is a sequel , entitled "How to pro- cure it. " Boston Post. "All Men Are liars , " said David of old. Ho was probably prompted to make the above remark after trying some unreliable catarrh remedy. Had ho been prcmittcd to live until the present day , and tried Dr. Sage's Remedy , ho might have had a better opinion of mankind. Wo claim thafc no case of catarrh can withstand the magic effects of this wonderful med icine. One trial of it will convince you of its efficacy.
