c Two Teuns.
Here is a really funny story which
tvill amuse all who are interested in
' -football. On the occasion of a great
; , match in one of the English counties ,
between a number of military officers
and a team of barristers , the former
had prepared a splendid lunch , for the
- visitors before the game. Both teams
.did thorough justice to the lunch , and
the legal gentleman going in strong for
. the indigestibles , the officers anticipated -
' ed an easy victory. On looping toward
the football ground , however , after
lunch , the officers espied a remarkably
fresh-looking lot of giants kicking the
ball about , and , in amazement , asked
their guests who the strangers were.
"Uli ; replied one of them , just finish-
ling his last mouthful , "that's our playing -
ing team ; we are only the .unching
'cam , you know. "
Anecdote or Nelson.
A very pretty anecdote is told of Lord
26elson , the hero of the battle of Trafal-
gar. Besides being a great commander
and a brave man , Nelson was one of the
truest , of friends , and while he was as
fond as all other remarkable men of the
praise which good and heroic deeds
merit , he knew so little of jealousy that
11e always wished others to have their
zneed of praise as well as himself.
Presented to King George III. of England -
land at one of the royal levees , his majesty -
jesty congratulated the admiral upon
'his tremendous victories , closing with
a few sympathetic remarks about the
admiral's loss of his arm.
Nelson bowed his acknowledgments ,
and then , turning about , presented his
friend and companion in many hot
lights , Captain Berry.
"The loss of my arm , your majesty , "
'he said , "is not so great as you imagine ,
for here is my right hand , "
The Sparrows and the Chipmunk.
A young naturalist who Is a close observer -
-server of birds tells this little story :
"One morning last summer , while
walking through one of our parks , I
was attracted by a tremendous chattering -
ing from a clump of bushes near the
pathway. It sounded as if a hundred
birds were leaving a fight over their
breakfast-for sparrows think that a
Tat worm or a juicy bug is worth making -
ing a great fuss about. I walked quick-
Iy and stealthily up to the bushes and
peeped in. It was not a worm which
caused the commotion , but something
bigger. A large flock of English sparrows -
rows were flying about , screaming as
if they had gone mad and pecking savagely -
agely at intervals at some small animal ,
-which was running about on the ground.
It was a poor little red chipmunk who
had excited their wrath. He was running -
ning back and forth , evidently trying
to get away from his tormentors. It was
-of no use , for he was closely surrounded
'by them , and he evidently was getting
-weak in the unequal struggle. So I
drove away the sparrows and tried to
rescue the miserable little squirrel.
Wlen the birds flew away the chipmunk -
munk still lay upon the ground and
seemed unable to move. I picked him
itlp in my hands. He was in a pitiable
tcondition. The sparrows had pulled
1
pearly every hair out of his tail. One
-of his eyes was entirely pecked out , and
lie was covered with cuts and wounds ,
where the pugnacious little sparrows
had pecked and beaten him. Poor little
chippy ! Ie was nearly dead , and evidently -
dently in such suffering that he had to
be put out of his misery. We had Mr.
'Chipmunk stuffed and put him on
the mantel-shelf for an ornament. He
looks much more happy there than he
.did the day the quarrelsome little sparrows -
rows pecked his life away. But what
3t was that excited their wrath Mr.
Chipmunk never told.

Too Much for Him.
Some small boys are said to have a i
great horror of the bath-tub , and are
disposed to rebel whenever the time i
comes for them to get into it. These at
least will appreciate the following anecdote -
ecdote , which we cut from an English
; periodical :
"A young Scotchman at Aldershot
fell ill , and was sent to the hospital. A
bath was ordered. It was brought into
the chamber where the invalid lay. He
looked at It hard for some time , and
then threw up his hands and bawled ,
'Oh , doctor ! doctor ! I canna drink a'
"hat' "
Alas ! Poor Owl.
A pair of large brown owls of a very
rare species have had their home in the
-thick woods by the creek on our farm ,
and for fifteen years , when the stars
thone resplendently during the long
winter nights , these hardy birds , warm-
' Iy clad in down and feathers , cheered
the passing hours with their strange ,
olemn talk , understood only by them-
selves. We had something.like an at-
tachnent for these owls ; they formed
.the only surviving link of a wild nature '
-that connected the present with the past t
years when the prairies north of the
gills were unsettled and inhabited only
. , . _ _ . . .w- .

by the wild creatures that were in the
full enjoyment of unbroken solitude.

The Irishman who went up in tht
hotel lift without knowing what it waa
did not easily get over his surprise.
He tells the story in this way :
"I went to the hotel , and says I : 'Is
Mr. Smith in ? '
"Says the man with the sojer cap :
'Will yer step in ? ' ' '
"So I steps into the office and all of a

"Says he :

when yez come down , '
" 'Come down , is it ? ' says I , 'and it's
no office , but a liaythenish balloon that
yez got me in. '
"And wid that the walls stood stocli

Bird with No Wing to Speak or.
If a child vas asked what ability a
bird had- - which was not possessed by
other creatures , he would probably re
ply "the power to fly. " Sc. a bird whc
could not fly would seem to him a con
tradiction , yet there is such a bird , and
he is called the penguin.
The penguin does not fly , but he can
walk upon the land and swim in the
water. He swims in the water as a
duck does , and his pictures show hilt
to look not unlike a duck when swim
ming. But upon the land he sits in a
peculiar upright position , with his queel
little apologies for wings tucked close
to his side. Penguins inhabit the south.
ern seas and assemble together by thou
sands , sitting in stiff rows along the
shore or walking in the same strange
upright position. The penguin subsists
as might be expected , upon fish , which
he swallows whole.
The penguin makes no nest. The
mother lays but one egg at a time and
carries this about with her under hei
absurd little wing or under her leg , as
some naturalists say. In this style she
takes good care of it until the baby
penguin appears , when both parents gc
out and fish for his sustenance. Witb
two parents working for one child , the
baby penguin should be well provided
for , and he probably is.
There are many varieties of penguins
their habits and appearance being much
alike. They are very noisy birds , lnak
ing a harsh , braying sound. They are
not afraid of men and show a disposi
tion to fight if molested. These birds
are about three feet high.
The Bugaboo Brownie.
An amusing toy , easy to make and
worth the trouble of making , is the
bugaboo brownie. Boys often find the
hours of a rainy night hanging heavily
on their hands. Here is something tc
make one forget that the dark hours
before bed time are dreary. Obtain a
rosy-cheeked apple. Stick two ladies
hat pins through the apple , close toe
gether ; these form the big eyes of the
roly-poly face. Below the hat pin optics
stick a row of ordinary pins. These
form the teeth. Stick a spool atop of ,
the apple where the stem comes out ;
this is the hat. Into the under side 01
the fruit insert three long strips of wire
not too pliant , and stout enough to bear
the weight of the apple. Cut a piece of
cloth in the form of a loose
robe. Twist up the ends of
the wire and there's your brownie-
110 , the bugaboo's nose is missing ! This
is a simple peg. No need to say where
it is to be placed. When the brownie is
quite himself , he may be stood up on the
table cloth and by scratching the cloth
In front of the figure it will walk , dance
or wobble toward the finger. A great
personage , this bugaboo brownie.-New
Orleans Picayune.
A Musical Item.
Here is a story from New Orleans
which must be taken as it stands. We
do not vouch for the truth of it. "Mu.
3ical shots ; says the tale , "are the late
est among the sensations of New Or
leans. A sharp-shooter of the name of
Pardon fires at the metal bars of a set
0f bells. The bullets , hi striking the
bar , sound a musical note , and the shots
follow each other in such rapid succes
sion and with such accuracy that the
marksman is able to shoot any tune
that may be desired. " The only thin
lacking in this story is some account
of Pardon's ability , which we presume
he must possess , to shoot chords wit (
ordinary bird-shot.
Tire Use of It.
Among the many useless invention
thrust upon the world by people whc
ike to do useless things was a cloth
once exhibited in Brussels. The pecul

"It's ingenious , " said a visitor to the
exhibition ; "but of what use is it ? Why

GRANDD J ? ARTY.
MORTGAGES NEITHER A CURSE
NOR A BURCEN.
rho Calamity IIowlor's Pet Bogle a
Creature of the Imagination-The.
old Soldiers Sacrificed to Benefit the
Fifty-third Congress.
The progress of the investigation of
mortgage indebtedness in Minnesota , by
the bureau of labor , has been followed
by the St. Paul Pioneer Press with in-
terest. It is now cdmplete ; and the results -
sults exhibit conclusively that mortgage
indebtedness is not the curse and burden
upon the farmer that the calamity howlers -
ers would have It. On the contrary , it
appears to be the regular and well understood -
derstood means by which the poor man
acquires and improves his holding ;
increasing where the increase of new
settlement is largest , and decreasing in
the older portions of the state , as farmers -
ers begin to put their savings into the
paying of debts instead of into betterments -
ments , The mortgage foreclosure Is a
bugbear to the city speculator and city
investor , and to a few of those who
deal in acre properties not only for improvement -
provement but for a flyer in the market.
To the actual farmer its terrors are
mostly imaginary , save where there has
been drought or the chinch bug or the
hailstorm or some other' destructive
visitation of unpreventabie calamity.
The total farm mortgage debt of Minnesota -
nesota , according to Commissioner Pow-
ers' investigations , was about $39,000 ;
000 on the first day of 1590 , being an increase -
crease of between $3,000,000 and $4,000 :
000 in the preceding ten years. But not
only were these years of vast development -
ment to the state , years when an enormous -
mous acreage was added to its tilled
area , requiring the investment of much
new capital , but they were years in
which the farmers had added to their
resources improvements and machinery
to the amount of $3,826,690 , and live
stock valued at $26,820,86 ; while the
value of their properties had increased
over $146,000,000. It is estimated that
the foreclosures on farm property in
1892 and 1593 were from 40 to 50 per cent
less than they were ten years before.
At the present time the amount of foreclosing -
closing is very small. The older agricultural -
cultural counties are putting money in
the savings banks. In the newer there
is the same struggle for existence that
there must 'be wherever man attacks
the raw resources of nature without
capital of his own. But it Is a struggle
less against debt than it is for an assured -
sured Independent livelihood ; and it is
one which , with intelligence and industry -
try , is in no wise in doubt. Mr. Powers
has done a valuable service to the state
in collecting the figures which show the
promise of Minnesota agriculture under
conditions which were far from the most
favorable.
Mr. Cleveland , "Deadbeat. "
A president of the United States , espe-
ciallyone who is rich , should be ashamed
to practice the "deadhead" business.
Mr. Cleveland , however , seems to be as
callous in this respect as in others. If
reports are trustworthy , his recent duck
hunting trip was undertaken wholly
at the expense of the federal treasury.
He not only employed a government
vessel on his junketing expedition , but
he took navy officers and an army surgeon -
geon along with him.
What right has Grover Cleveland any
more than another public servant to
appropriate a government vessel and
the time of government officials to his
private purposes ? So far as the army
surgeon is concerned , the action of Mr.
Cleveland is contemptible. This person
is stationed at Washington in order to
give the families of army officers medical -
cal attendance free , and while he is
away from duty these officers are compelled -
pelled to pay for medical services out
of their meager salaries. Mr. Cleveland
might just as well put his hands in the
pockets of these men and abstract for
his own benefit the sum which they are
thus forced to pay.
There is no excuse for "deadheadism"
on the part of Mr. Cleveland. Beside
being wealthy , he receives $50,000 a year
from the government and the use of
the white house for a residence. In addition -
dition , a president of the United States
should set a better example than trying
to "beat his way. " Such a thing may
be tolerated in a tramp , but it is totally
unbefrtting the chief magistrate of a
great nation.-New York Advertiser.
Bobbed from the Pensioners.
But for the robbery of the pensioners
by the present administration the appropriations -
propriations by the late congress would
have exceeded those of the so-called
"billion-dollar congress' by forty seven
millions. As it is , the late congress
appropriated five millions more than
that which received the billion-dollar
label. Mr. Cannon has shown up the
matter in a very striking light , but did
not go far enough by half in fixing the
responsibility for the detestable work
where it belongs.
Grover Cleveland has received much
abuse for the tenacity with which he
has clung to the members of the cabinet
who he called around him. Half the
country could not understand what he
wanted of some of them at least , but it
has been demonstrated by the incidental
outcroppings of time that he knew what
he was about. He had business for Car-
isle , and he had a special job for Hoke
Smith. How well they have performed
the wishes of their master everybody
knows. And with
a half-way decent regard -
gard for their faithful services he could
not part with them now.
This pension robbery was of vital importance -
portance in the carrying out of the poi-
dies of Mr. Cleveland. With the general
mpoverishment of the people it would
not do to have it go on record that his
Congress spent more of the people's
money than any that had ever preceded
t. There was no other source in which
such an enormous reduction of expense
could be made at such little cost to the
democratic party. Besides , the amount
necessary to take in each case was comparatively -
paratively small , and there would be no
great interest like the trusts , backed up
by money , to protest against the summary -
mary way of raising the wind for demo-
ratic buncombe. It took nerve to carry
out the plan , and it was best to have it
n the hands of a man whose prejudices
would naturally assist him in preserving -
ng the rigidity of his backbone ,
Hoke Smith got the job , and did his
work so well that the last democratic
ongress will go into history with an
xpense record under the billion mark-
but only by a scratch.-Kansas City
Journal.
Almost n Veto.
The country is just made aware of
the narrow escape It has had from a
great calamity. It is given out on the
aL.hority of a cabinet officer that on
Sunday , March 3 , the president was
on the very brink of vetoing the sundry -
dry civil and general deficiency bills ,
and then summoning a special session
of congress. What particular items in
the said bills excited his animosity and
stirred his indignation we are not told.
It is not often that the president almost -
most does a thing and doesn't do W.
He is not constructed that way. When
his mind is once set in motion in a given
direction It moves with a good deal of
momentum and is not easily arrested
or turned aside.
But in this case , it would seem , the
cabhiet , which was in session , rushed
in and threw themselves in front of the
president , so to speak , and derailed him
and saved the country.
It gives one the "cold shivers" just
to think what a narrow escape we had.
We ] lave heard of children playing on
the slopes of Vesuvius , heedlessly plucking -
ing : Icwers , while the imprisoned giant
below is turning himself restlessly , preparing -
paring to vomit forth floods of scorching -
ing lava. So heedless and so unconscious -
scious were the denizens of the capital
and the people of this country' on that
critical Sunda ; morning-Detroit Trib-
une.
Anything Is Possibe.
What with mediating with two wars
In. Asia and Africa , rr"pressing a half
dozen revolutions in South America and
the"West Indies , and nursing a howling
neuralgia simultaneously Secretary
Gresham is as busy as a cat with six
skillets to lick. There is really no telling -
ing what complications in th' diplomatic -
ic relations of the country may not
arise under these trying circumstances.
Another Tilnd of Poverty.
A Washington dispatch asserts pa-
tlietically that Secretary Gresham is
poor. That may be , but it is not on
account of his poverty that Mr. Gresham -
ham is not popular. It is because his
administration of the office was poor
that lie fell from such esteem as hq once
enjoyed.
They Look the Other Way.
The free-traders are exercising unwonted -
wonted forbearance. They have never
once charged that strike of 200,000 English -
lish shoemakers to the tariff , as they
would have done had it occurred anywhere -
where save in free-trade England ,
The Country Dreathes Freer.
It is now safe to look for a steady improvement -
provement in business. There will be
no more tinkering with the tariff , and
no more monkeying with the currency ,
which is to say that the menace of a
democratic congress has been removed.
As a Memento.
An addition of three-quarters of a
million a year to the national interest
account is one of the things by which
we shall remember the first half of the
Cleveland administration.
New Version.
"For lo ! the winter is past , the rain
is over-and gone ; the flowers appear on
the earth ; the time of the singing of
the birds is come , and the voice of the
cuckoo is heard no more in our land. "
No Veterans Need Apply.
The duties of mail weigher could easily -
ly be discharged by old soldiers , but few
veterans will waste time and postage
by applying to Mr. Wilson for any of
the 400 positions to be filled.
Profit by Our Experience.
Canada , with a debt already upward
of $300,000,000 , is scarcely in the right
condition to try a "tariff.reform" experiment -
ment , if one is to judge by the present
plight of the United States.
How Did They Manage It ?
Five thousand people are subsisting
on free soup in New Foundland. This
seems remarkable , considering that the
democratic party has not been in cone
trol up there.
SWEET CHARITY.
The Poor Woman's Appeal Wrung a
Ready Response from the Mechanic.
It was in a Main street restaurant.
The clerks from the neighboring stores
and offices began pouring in for dinner.
While the waitress put a lamb-stew dinner -
ner , with coffee and pie , in front of the
writer a man came in and sat down opposite -
posite , says the Cincinnati Tribune. By
his dress a casual observer would have
put him down as a mechanic , but his
hands were as soft as a woman's. He
ordered milk and rolls , and when he
had about half finished a young woman
came in. She was poorly clad , and ,
hesitating for a moment at the first
table , she took courage , and going close
up to the table she spoke to the man
who was eating a big dinner. With
a frown he answered "No ! " She was
disappointed and her looks showed it.
Then , her eyes falling on the mechanic
with the soft hands , she went up to him ,
and with a voice that seemed full of
sorrow she said :
"Won't you help me , sir ? "
"You bet I will. I'm a poor man and
I'm not eating a big dinner ( with this he
turned and scowled on the man who
was ) , but I'll help a poor girl from
starvation. "
This speech , in a rather loud and excited -
cited voice , attracted the attention of
everybody in the room and all saw him
lay a quarter on the table. The young
woman's gratefulness seemed to render
her speechless. She took up the money
in an embarrassed manner , expressed
her thanks , and started to leave. Everybody -
body had a coin in his hand by this time
and as each handed over his donation
he scowled on the man who had refused.
The poor young woman went out and
the "mechanic" with the soft hands ,
having finished his milk and rolls , paid
his bill and left , the hero of the hour.
The writer followed and a few yards up
the street two familiar figures met his
gaze. They were the young woman and
the man who hi.d ordered milk and
rolls. The pantomime was brief and
plain. She dumped a handful of small
change in his hand and they started
down Main street together.

WEAK NERVES
Indicate as surely as any physical symp-
torn shows anything , that the organs
and tissues of the body are not satisfied
with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenance from the
blood , and if the blood is thin , impure ,
or insufficient , they are in a state of re-
volt. Their complaints are made to
the brain , the king of the body , through
the nervous system , and the result of
the general dissatisfaction is what we
call Nervousness.
This is a concise , reasonable explanation -
tion of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness , then , is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla , and the
nerves , tissues and organs will have the
healthful nourishment theycrave. Nervousness -
vousness and Weakness will then give
way to strength and health ,
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by I1ood's Sarsapa-
rilia. Read the next column.

" With pleasure I Will state that Hood's '
Sarsaparilla has helped me wonderfully.
For several months I could not lie down to i
sleep on account of heart trouble and also
Prostration of the NerVes. ,
For three years I had been doctoring , but - I.
could not get cured. I received relief for a ,
while but not permanent. Soon after be- - li
ginning to take flood's Sarsaparilla there. -
was a change for the better. In a short
time I was feeling splendidly. I now rest j
well and nm able to do work of whatever ;
hind. If I had not tried Hood's Sarsaparilla
I do not know what would have become of
me. I keep it iu m } house all the time , and }
other members of the family take it , and all
say there is i !
Nothing Like Hood's
Sarsaparilla. I have highly recommended it t
and one of my ueigllbors has commenced fi
taking it. I recommend Ilood's Sarsaparilla' '
at every opportunity. " This. S. BRAD- tp
