"Of all the Biblical character*,"said Mr.
Shinrack, putting aside the Scripture* aad
addressing his interesting family, " I most
admire David. Aside from being a gnat
ruler, he was a poet Uii a singer of great
sweetness.”
“ He was somethinglike Andrew Johnson,
replied the ton, just from college.
“ Why lika Andrew Johnson ?” asked the
father.
*‘ Because h.» was a tailor.”
"What, David a tailor'.”’
Ye*, for the Bible says so."
" The Bible says nothing of the kind."
"Oh, vea; for don’t you know that when
Saul went into the cave David cut bis gar
ment.”
After a few moments’ silence the father
said to his wife: "There is an old horse
pistol somewhere up stairs. Wish you'd
bring it down.”

'* You’ve got some nice wood over there
in your yard," said a seedy-lookiag tramp
to an Austin Avenue lady.
" Yes,” said the lady of the house.
** I would like to csfry it iu for you,” sa:d
he.’
“ Ate husband intend-- to oarrv it in. ’ she
replieJ.
*• Well,” said the tramp, “ 1 will carry it
in an l pile it »p nice if you will give me
u»v breakfast.”
At this otfer the lady consented, and the
tramp went to work.
After ha had carried in a couple of arm
fuls the lady s.epped to the door and found
him sitting on the pile with his claws ou his
knees and his face buried in his hands.
*' What is the tr-tUer"’ raid sbi
"Ob, lady,” said he, looking up, "I am
so weak, for I have bad nothing to eatsince
day before yesterday,’ and he again covered
his face with his hands. This seemed to a
rouse the lady’s sympathy, and she went in
and soon returned with an excellent break
fast. After ho had swept everything from
the board, he said: “Thanks, my good
lady, for tliia sumptuous repast. Now let
me give you ihis&dvice: Never let your sym
pathy got the better part of your discretion.
I’m oil', la, ta 1” an l he walked majestical
ly out of the front gate. The tramp had
gone but a short distance when ho became j
d sadly sick, lie seated himself on the curb
stone, and a few moments later, having two
or three violent spasmodic contractions ol
the stomach, he lost his ill-gotten breakfast. ;
Indeed his stomach would h-ve followed
suit had it not been thoroughly dove-tailed j
to his diaphragm. He believed that be was
poisoned, and he became very much alarmed.
As soon as he regained strength enough to
get to his feet be slowly retraced bis steps
aud found the lady standing iu the front
door.
“ Madam.” be said iu piteous tones, “ my
breakfast did not stay on my stomach, i
believe I'm poisoned.”
“ That is not to be wondered at,” said she.
“ I suspected your little game, having been
caught once before in the same way, so I
nwy.i ' t w if Kv iln.m » un'ir o
with tartar emetic. Now lei me give you a
little advice : Never again let your rascality
get away with your breakfast. To beat a
deadbeat beats everythiag. Tu, ta!” and
•he shut tho d<>or in hi-face. The tramp
started sorrowfully down the street, wouder
ing, no u >ubt, ho'.v he could get a breakfast
that would stay with him.— T*xa* Sifting*,

A well known author has said: ** Krery
youth should live with an eye •*!» old age.
If he should die before ha gets there, i: will :
never do him any injury.” Just so should
all youth be taught by their parents and j
teachers that Peruna, the great tonic is just
the remedy hen ?ds t^r all the ailments to
which the flesh ir heir. Many gohleu o
j'inions <u its value and of iis unprecedent
tsl success Slave been received by its dis
'soverers, all of whi h express the most un
bounded confidence in its value as a reme
dy. and ail tell what it has done for the
afflicted.
t\ H. W dr >n writes from Brooklyn,New
York, that he began taking lVruna while at
* onncaui.ci, |*a., for a se\ re pain in his
side. After taking throe bottles, the pain
was almost entirely removed, and he now
asks where ho can get the worid-renowued
tonic in Gotham. Ue knows where he gets
relief. Ask your druggist for Peruna and
Maaalin, also tho “ IBs of Life.”

“ Stranger,” he began, as fos shoved his
hat back on his head an 1 sat down on a
trunk on the platform, “what is this ’ere a- !
bout these ’ere railroad pools .’”
“ How ?”
" Wall, then, what is a r.iilroul pool ?”
” Why,a number of railroad lines put all |
their earnings ir»to a bag, shake it up and
divide eveu.”
” What's that fur f»
“jso that all can get a whack at busi
ness.”
*' An’ its accordin’ to law ?”
H Yes.”
The man pulled his hat down, rested his ,
elbows on his knees for a “ think,” which
lasted three or f »ur minut :s, an l then sud
denly arose and sai l :
“Stranger, I’ve been a tarnal fool!”
” How ?”
“ Why, thnr’s a chap livin’ ih*.x door to
