apt to fail rapidly in this disease
Peruna cures catarrh of the kidneys
simply because t cures catarrh where
ever located

Bangor Mans Joke
On Western Visitor
A man from Minneapolis who had
been spending a few days at one of
ihd Maine coast resorts came to Ban
gor this week and in conversation
with a friend in a hotel cafe here re
marked that he had enjoyed his visit
to the shore but that he had not
found lobsters ac plentiful there as ho
had expected
Lobsters Why thats queer re
sponded the Bangor man Why the
woods are full of them so to speak
Come down to my place at Hancock
Point and 111 give you your fill of
them
Many down there queried the
Westerner
Many The Bangor man regarded
his questioner with surprise reply
ing Why man lobsters en
thick down there that theyve got to
be a nuisance Have
to
go out morn
ings and sweep them off the paths
even climb up on the porch Beastly
nuisance when you dont care for
them you know
The man from the West looked
dazed but promised to accompany the
Bangorean to Hancock Point next
day there to help repel the invasion
of lobsters The Bangor man went to
the telegraph office and sent this mes
sage to his wife at Hancock Point
Buy all the lobsters within ten
miles and scatter them about the
lawn paths and porches
Next day when the joker and his
Mis Dignity and Hat
A gale was howling across the
square when a large portly man came
around the corner He was erect and
nis rotund figure had a military poise
an air of dignity which was imposing
Suddenly a wild gust seized his
shining hat and whirled it off It shot
up into the air and described circles
in the manner of M Santos Dumonts
airship Then it flew across the street
and fell into a puddle of muddy water
The dignified citizen gazed at the
flight of his hat in a bewildered fash
ion When it fell to the ground he
cantered gently after it As he neared
it he bent eagerly forward His hand
almost touched the precious tile when
swoop came another gust and snatch
ed the unfortunate hat which went
rolling off churning the muddy waters
of the gutter like the screw of a
Eteamer
The owner of the hat looked wrath
fully after it and then started in pur
suit on a mad gallop Swiftly along
the square rolled the hat Suddenly
in the midst of his swift course the
pursuer stepped on a piece of orange
I never was one to talk against my
neighbors said Miss Dosia Ann Pine
who had dropped in by the back way
to borrow a cupful of brown sugar
from Mrs Judge Tubman but I cant
help thinkin that Deacon Gustus
Stang is a little mite too hasty and
sarcastic in expressin himself for a
man of his position and professions
Why yesterday afternoon I was
right there myself passin the time o
day with Mis Stang and saw it all
a stand of his bees swarmed and
lodged on a limb of the ox heart
cherry tree on top of the upper off set
The Deacon went to work to hive em
first gettin on an up ended barrel and
reachin up and cuttin off the limb
with the bees all bunched up on it
At that very instant if youll believe
me the head of the barrel caved in
and over it whopped and fell offm
the off set with the Deacon inside and
went rollin and bouncin down the
long stone steps and slammed against
the hitchin post at the foot of the
stairs with a crash that busted the
THE ANCIENT COPTIC FAITH
Egypt Now the Center of This Form
of Worship
In Westminster abbey after the
coronation of King Edward a silver
votive cross was left by the Abys
sinian envoy Ras Makonnen It rep
resents the faith of the Coptic church
the most debased in Christendom
Egypt is the center of this faith the
patriarch of Alexandria as he is
called living at Cairo Not even the
priests understand the language of
the services essentially the same as
that used by the Pharaohs with a
mixture of the tongue of Homer In
its ritual is found an admixture of
ancient Egyptian and Jewish cere
monial together with that of primitive
Christianity Here ordination is con
ferred not by the laying on of hands
but by breathing and the universal
kiss is interchanged among the con
gregation Children may act as dea
cons and may receive the sacrament
bread dipped in wine In Abyssinia
the Jewish and Egyptian ritual is car
ried still further to excess The ark
is the center of worship which in
cludes dancing The Jewish Sabbath
is observed Distinction is drawn be
tween clean and unclean animals
Polygamy also has lingered on So
extreme is their belief in external
rites to wash away sin that the great
est festival of the year amounts to
an annual baptism of the whole na
tion They have even canonized
Pilate because he washed his hands
and said I am innocent of the blood
of this just Man
guest arrived at the cottage the whole
place had been planted with green
and squirming crustaceans and the
fun began the minute they entered the
walk The Bangor man kicked some
thing out of his path
Whats that asked the guest
Oh thats one of those confounded
lobsters was the calm reply A little
further on more lobsters wriggled
over the walk and the cottager de
clared in disgusted tones that it was
pretty tough when a man couldnt get
into his own house without climbing
over a lot of slimy lobsters The
Westerners eyes started from their
sockets but when he got to the vine
covered porch entrance he nearly
fainted
Two enormous lobsters were cling
ing by their claws to the trellis and
grabbing one of them the host
marked
Theyll be in my bedroom next -here
this one will make a good broil
for you
The big lobster was broiled and the
man from Minneapolis ate it with
keen delight Next day he ate others
and when he got back to Bangor he
declared solemnly
I never would have believed it had
I not seen them with my own eyes

peel grasped wildly at the air and
fell with a despairing splash
Shorn of all his dignity the unhappy
man slowly rose looked around to
see if he was observed then carefully
examined his injured raiment From
collar to waist his frock coat had
split Twenty yards ahead peacefully
reposing by the curbstone lay the in
nocent cause of all his misfortunes
With an air of grim determination
he strode toward it The hat remained
coyly resting on the edge of a puddle
The portly person gazed down at the
water logged mud covered tile and
then at his own ruined raiment
Just then as if inspired by a de
mon of mischief the hat began to
sway with a passing gust This was
too much Gathering himself to
gether the fat man made a mighty
leap and landed both feet squarely
on the hat He peered anxiously
around to see if he was observed and
then turning up his coat collar strode
away leaving the fragments of what
had once been a silk hat reposing in
the gutter The Scotsman
Incident Too Much
For Deacons Temper
barrel all to staves and wrung a great
groan from the Deacon and left him
pretty near wrapped around the
with the infuriated bees a
stabbin at him like
Hi Price was drivin by
with his tin peddlers cart and blind
horse and he stopped and called out
as was natural

way I laugh Im tickled gol rammed
near to death over the joke Ive just
played on the bees
Of course he had a good deal of
provocation looking at it in some
ways but I contend that hed better
have restrained himself long enough
to have counted a hundred before he
spoke though of course it aint
really for me to judge Puck

CAPE BOYS AND THEIR WAYS
Nervous Passengers Would Not En
joy Their Style of Driving
In South Africa the mail carts con
vey passengers for long distances The
drivers of these vehicles are usually
Cape Boys men of mixed parentage
Hottentots Griqua Koranna with a
dash of the white man superadded
They are first rate drivers and man
ago their teams of six eight and even
ten horses with extraordinary skill
and dexterity Another colored boy
sits alongside the driver wielding an
enormously long whip which instru
ment he manages as deftly as a first
rate fly fisher does his rod and cast
ing line Nevertheless these Cape
boys are reckless folk much addicted
to drink and inordinately vain of their
performances as Jehus It is the fash
ion with them to start away from and
make the approach to the village inns
or baiting places where they make
their halts at a hard gallop In this
way owing to the drivers drinking
habits and the ordinary risks of bad
roads accidents often happen th6
cart and its passengers are occasion
ally turned over and broken bones
result The cart itself is a two-wheeled
tented carriage having two or
three seats placed one behind the
other the passengers invariably look
ing toward the horses Baggage and
mails are strapped on behind or if
a regular coach is used upon the top
If man had no curiosity private de
fective offices would shut up busi
ness
Our Millionaires and Britains
For the year 1901 only fifteen per
sons in all Great Britain paid tax on
ncomes exceeding 250000 and the
grand total of these fifteen Incomes
was 7500000
As the income tax assessors make
heir inquest for large incomes very
searching the interesting fact Is estab
lished that the fifteen richest Britons
arc worth 187500000 This assumes
that their aggregato wealth yields
them 4 per cent per annum
Taero are at least two American cit
izens John D Rockefeller and Andrew
Carnegie each of whom is worth
more than the fifteen richest British
subjects combined And there are
scores of American oitlzcns whoso in
comes exceed the 500000 a year which
Is the average income of the Britains
first fifteen
The conclusion must not be jumped
at that because of this tendency wealth
is more evenly distributed in Britain
than here It sounds epigrammatic to
say that millionaires and tramps mul
tiply together but it is not true There
are fewer millionaires and at the same
time more paupers in John Bulls is
land than In nclo Sams continental
anion
The Influence of Women
Back of every great worthy achieve
ment of man find the woman mother
teacher wife They are there con
tributing to the advancement of the
race an impetus only less than that
ot the divinity that did create us I
have heard atavistic male creatures in
human semblance deplore the presence
of the new woman the woman who
wishes perhaps to earn her own bread
certainly to shape her own life and the
ives of the children she will bring
into the world to take an equal part
with her brothers in the government
that taxes her to broaden her mental
Horizon until it shall include the best
thought of all lands and times And
truly enough such women are not for
such men they have outgrown their
Titles Their business is to improve
tho race by improving the individual
and they are hard at it Detroit
