The Rev. Dr. Fourthly—Mr. Wrap
peinup, I didn't see you at church ye»
terday morning.
Grocer—No, doctor. So many of
your congregation came to get supplies
for their Sunday dinner that I couldn't
get away in time.—Chicago Tribune.
A Knee Against Fire.
The crew of a steamer from Spain
discovered in mid ocean that flames
were raging in the hold. For ten daya
they bravely fought the flames. If men
woulfl fight as persistently against dis
orders of the stomach there would be
fewer premature deaths. The best
weapon for such a fight is Ilostetter's
Ston ach Bitters.

The Jay—And did our congressman
have stage fright when he made his
first speech?
The Josh—Oh, no. He handed it to
the printer, as nonchalantly as you

What some people don't know they
are always talking about.
EasHg?
Are you frequently hoarse?
Do you have that annoying
tickling in your throat? Would
you feel relieved if you could
raise something? Does your
cough annoy you at night, and
do you raise more mucus in
the morning?
Then you shouid always keep

If you have a weak
throat you cannot be too
careful. You cannot begin
treatment too early. Each
cold makes you more liable
to another, and the last
one is always harder to
cure than the one before it.

WILL BE COLD WINTER
SOOSlE BONES, AND WOOD
DHUCKS AMONG "SURE SIGNS"
EtmciiH of Severe Weatlier—Oil Your
Skates, Brush the Motli Halls Oat of
Your I'ura and Lay In Plenty of
Flannels.
It's going to be a cold winter for
man and beast, says the New York
Herald. The gripman—place him in
either category you wish, for the pres
ent weather prophet scorns to inftu
snce your opinion one way or the oth
3i'—will flap his arms like the wind
mill and swearfully speed away, pour
ing maledictions on the climate and on
tiis all insufficient clothing and de
pending for warmth upon the tempera
ture of his own language. The hot
chestnut man will transfer his wares
to a less enviable position and place
his hands over the grateful and com
Eorting little stove, the while he "car
ambas" at everything in sight and
Bighs for the land of the smiling sun
and the vigorous vendetta. It's go
ing to be a cold winter, my country
men, and the only man who will wel
come the wave of wind and chill will
be the plumber gentleman, whose car
diac organ will be as warm as the
heart of Vesuvius.
To such men as are not weighted
down with the wisdom that comes of
holding communion with the visible
forms of nature and hearkening to her
wondrous language, it may not be out
of place to remark that the goose bone
is very wide and nearly all white.
Voila!
Is not that enough? Are you not, as
you finish that sentence, snatching
your hat and top coat and rushing off
to the coal dealer, the ulster manufac
turer and the liver pad maker to get
in your orders before the rush com
mences? No? You tarry? Sh-h! Not
before in eight years—in eight years,
mind you—have the goose bones been
so white, nor yet so wide. Sure sign.
Look at the ragweed closer. How
tall it is! Divinely tall, the birds mur
mur in their own language. When
the ragweed gets as tall as it is grow
ing now it as pretty a sight to a non
migatory bird as a full hand is to a
loser in a consolation pot. That tall
ness means a something. It means
that there's going to be the. deepest
kind of a snowfall around the neck of
woods where the ragweed has reared
its inviting head. It means that old
Madame Nature is taking care of her
own by providing a class of food which
will refuse to be snowed under. Now,
will you go buy that sanitary all-wool
suit?
You won't? All right. Come closer.
Here's more evidence. See the corn
husk. Did you ever see a huskier,
heavier husk? Of course you didn't
or you'd be in the exhibiting business.
That heaviness tells the chosen inter
preters that there's a cold time com
ing.
It would seem from these conclusive
evidences that the proper thing to do
is to get out and corner the wool
en goods market. The wool ex
change is closed now, so you ought
to have little, if any, competition. Oil
your skates, brush the moth balls out
of your sweater and dig up your fur
lined overcoat.
LIVELY GOOSEBERRY JUICE.
Sparkling Champagnes Manufactured
from Fruits Other Than Grapes.
Adulteration of articles of consump
tion is, of course, a fraud upon the pub
lic unless due notice of it is given.
But, according to the Lancet,a redeem
ing feature of the deception in these
days is that adulteration generally oc
curs in some wholesome form. Mar
garine is an excellent food substance,
though it is not butter the potato is
very nourishing, but it should not be
found in bread. In the same way
champagne is an excellent and invigor
ating beverage, which in its cheaper
forms, however, has often nothing to
do with grapes. Gooseberries, ol'
course, have placed champagne within
the reach of everybody. There was a
time when it all came from vineyards,
when the poor had to treat the wine
as a case of sour grapes. But even in
champagne countries there are signifi
cant tales of proprietors buying up
Normandy orchards of apples, and it
is stated that many owners of large
pear orchards in France are under con
tract to send their entire produce to a
firm of wine merchants in the cham
pagne district. Lord Palmerston is re
ported to have told a deputation of the
trade who waited on him that there
was never a good champagne year in
France unless there was a good apple
crop in Normandy. However, though
perry, cider and gooseberry wine are
excellent drinks in their way, they are
not "champagne," and perhaps the
public prefers to pay a little more for
the higher-priced name.

Mortifying.
"The case against yon Is perfectly
clear," said the judge. "You stole a
package out of an express wagon. It
was found in your possession. On be
ing opened it was found to contain
campaign circulars. The sentence of
the court is that you be confined in the
county jail sixty days."
"Your honor," protested the prison
er, "considerin' the value of the goods,
can't you make it one day for stealin'
and lifty-nine days fur bein' a durn
fool?"—Chicago Tribune.

"But I—er—I thought a star rather
liked that sort of thing."

Football Player went by, "take that

The American Farmer is sincere in
what it says and whenever it endorses
an article, be it machinery, proprietary
medicine, or a man individually, we
•want our readers to believe that what
we say we have good reason to under
stand is true. For a year or more
there have been endorsements of the
Swanson Rheumatic Cure Company, of
167 Dearborn street, Chicago, by this
paper. People have written us to
know if this company is responsible,
and if its remarkable remedies, for the
cure of rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspep
sia, catarrh, kidney troubles, etc., real
ly had merit. We have therefore been
at extra pains to investigate, and once
again we add emphasis to our former
endorsement of that company. There
may bo isolated cases here and there
which, probably through neglect in fol
lowing directions, or from exposure or
some unexplainable reason, the won
derful Five Drops remedy does not do
the work. But it is a case where the
exception proves the rule. Mr. Swan
son is a gentleman of character and
personal integrity, and, we believe,
would no more attempt to deceive the
public than the writer of this article.
They still offer to send a sample bot
tle of "5 Drops" for 25c or a large
bottle, 300 doses, for 51, prepaid by
mail or express. Address as above.

"Mamma wants half a dozen 'em

"What is it you want?" he inquired,
somewhat puzzled.
"I want, a half-dozen 'emons," re

you know what a lialf-dozeii is?—it's
six."—Truth.

"You say your wil'e is much stronger,
but that she is feeling worse. I don't

has the worse she can feel."—Judge.

Surprised.
"I never saw anything more remark
able," said the young man who claims
lo have spent a great deal of time
abroad, "than a little scene I witnessed
in Spain. A passenger on one of the
cars became obstreperous and behaved
with the utmost disregard of proprie
ty. But the conductor didn't pay the
slightest attention to him."
'I don't see anything very wonderful
in that."
The Crowning Glory of the Age.
Man's enterprise culminated at the World's Columbian Ex
position. The memory of it will be a marvel for all time. The
fame there acquired will live for years. The manufacturers of
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder
appreciate the award to them of highest honors at the Exposition.
The significance of the. compliment, the splendid character of the
endorsement, cannot be underrated. It stamps Dr. Price's as
without a peer among the baking powders. The jury of awards,
an exceptionally intelligent body, was headed by the Chief Chem
ist of the United States Department of Agriculture. They found
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder strongest in leavening power,
perfect in purity, and of uniform excellence.
