The Scrap The Paramount Issue. One day during the campaign of 1000 Major Henry Newman was at Toplar Bluff, Mo., preaching Democracy pure and undefllod in his best form, but re fraining from any discussion of the "paramount issue." Among the major's auditors was a citizen in a policeman's helmet who marked the omission and interrupted. "How about the I'hlllipaylns?" he asked with a brogue which left no doubt as to his nativity. Major Newman continued without appearing to notice the questioner. "How about the rhillipayius?" came again at the end of one of the major's best periods Half a dozen of these iuterruntlons Book followed with no apparent let-up to the ValCil fop ,t:' unnamed grave, for he Irishman's persistence. I hiul never told who he was, a livid "My friend," said Major Newman at mnrk w!ls f JUn;l wn,ch showed that length, "I'll tell you about the Phillip- John- tUe nurso- ua(1 beeu branded aa oyins." j & convicted felon. Tho Imitation of the brogue was per-! feet, and everybody chuckled. j Against the Lightning Rod. "I'll tell you confidentially," said the A Ions time ago a member of the major seriously, "what I'm In favor of Dutch Reformed church In rotighkeep dolng with the Thillipayins. I'd trado sle made this protect against a proposi the rhllllpaylns to Great Britain for tioa to buy a lightning rod for the Ireland, and then we could raise our church: - "We've been to great deal own policemen." drouMes and great deal spouse to build ; a hou.-ie for tJod Almitls, and now if FATE. i Two shall be born tho whole wide world apart And speak In different tongues and have no thought Each of the other's being and no heed, And these o'er unknown seas to unknown lands Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death And all unconsciously shape every act And bend each wandering step to this one end That one day out of darkness they shall meet And read life's meaning in each other's , eyes. And tTvo shall walk some nnrrow way of life. So nearly side by side that should one turn Ever so little space to left or right They needs must stand acknowledged face to face. And yet with wistful eyes that never meet, With groping hands that never clasp and lips Calling in vain "o e:rs that never hear, They seek each other all their weary days And die unsatisfied. And this Is fate. Susan Marr Spalding. Choate'a Answer. Some one asked of Joseph II. Choate, "If vou could i.i;t bo yourself, whom wotdd you rather be?" Mr. Choute pon dered. Then looking up and catching the eye of his wife, answered, "Mrs. Choate' s second husband." Montaigne on Fools, In discussion nothing vexes me so much with folly as that it is more sat isfied with Itself than wisdom can rea sonably be. Obstinacy and foolhordi ness fill their possessors with joy and assurance. Tis for the most ignorant to look at other men over the shoulder, always returning from the combat full of Joy and triumph. And for the most part this assurance of speech and gay ety of countenance give them the bet ter of it In the opinion of the audience. UDSunacy oi opinion in arguuieut is the surest proof of folly. Is there any- thing so assured, resolute, disdainful. serious and grave as the ass? 1 Love of Country. In the last days of the Confederacy Geueral Lougstreet observed a soldier In tattered clothing standing iu mud and a beating rain during a temporary bait of the column. The soldier was soliloquizing for the benefit of the by standers: "I love my country," he said. "I could die for my country. Breathes there a man with soul so dead who to himself hath never said, 'This is my own, my native land?' But If I ever do get through with this war if I do get through sure enough I'll be damn ed if I ever fall iu love with another country!" Courage Loves a Lofty Path. I am encouraged by these things with which you think to scare me. I long to stand where the Sun himself trem bles to stanu. It Is the part of grovel era and cowards to follow the safe track. Courage loves a lofty path. Seneca. 1 ! I One Like Her. large touring automobile contain ing a man and bis wife In a narrow road met a hay wagon fully loaded. ' The woman declared that the farmer must back out, but her husband con tended that she was unreasonable. "But you can't back the automobile so far," she said, "and I don't Intend ; to move for anybody. He should have 1 seen us." The husband pointed out that this was impossible owing to an abrupt turn in the road. "I don't care," she insisted, "I won't move if we have to stay here all night" The man in the automobile was start ing to argue tb- matter when the farm er, who had been sitting quietly on the bay, interrupted. "Never mind, sir," he exclaimed. "I'll try to back out I've got one Just like tier at borne." Philadelphia Ledger. John, the Unknown. During the great epidemic of yellow fever at Memphis the members of the relief committee were at their wits' end to obtain watchers, when a man with coarse features, close cropped hair and shuflllng gait went directly to one of 'the attending physicians and said, "I want to nurse." The doctor looked at him critically, concluded he was not fitted for the work In any way and re- piled, "You are not needed." "I wish to nurse," persisted the stranger. "Try me for a week. If you don't like me, then dismiss inc. If you do, pay me my wages." "Very well," said the doc tor, "I'll take you, although, to be can did, I hesitate to lo so." Then he add ed mentally, "I'll keep my eye on him." But the man soon proved that ho need ed nobody's eye upon him. In a few Teelc 1k imd become one of the most valuable nurses on that heroic force. (Ie was tireless and self denying. Wherever the iestllence ragod most fiercely lw worked hardest. The suf fering and the tkikiug adored him. To the neglected and the forgotten his rough face was us the face of an angel. He acted so strangely on paydays, ho-.vever, that he was followed through b.ick streets to an obscure place, where l:o was seen to put his whole week's earnings Into a relief box for the bene lit of the yellow fever sufferers. Noi long afterward he sickened and died of tIle P'osue, ami when his body was pre- he's a mind to dunder on his own ujusc and burn him up, let him dunder den! I shan't vote for de dunder rod!" La Rochefoucauld on Love. hove, like tire, must have continual movement. When it ceases to hope and fear. It censes to exist. The reason why lovers are never weary of being together Is because they are always talking of themselves. Coldness i:i love is a sure means of being bebved. The more wo love !ie nearer are we to hate. Women who love, more easily pardon great Indiscretions than little infideli ties. It is impossible to love a second time what wo have once really ceased to love. He Liked the Family, Governor Claiborne F. Jackson of Missouri married five sisters. After one wife hud been lost and appropri ately mourned he espoused another, and he kept his courting withlA a nar row circle of bis own relatives, for he ratllPr Iik0ll lho fllmlly. The venerable father of these girls was almost deaf, and when the gov ernor went to this octogenarinn to ask for his surviviu? daughter the follow ing conversation ensued: I "I want Lizzie!" n. I Eh?" "I want you to let me have Ellz-a-beth!" "Oh, you wunt Lizzie, do you? What for?" "For my wife!" "For life?" "I want to marry her!" "Oh. yes! Just so. I hear you, boy." "I'm glad you do!" roared the gov ernor. "Well." slowly respouded the vet eran, "you needn't yell so that the .,., llf,1,,h,,0j.iiood knows It! Y u CU Luye hur Youve t ,em a ,aU but fop goodness 8ake ,f anything happens to that 'ere poor llt- tie gal don't come and ask me for the old woman!" Jackson solemnly promised that he neVi!r would. Ths Deadly Tongue. The second most deadly instrument of destruction is the dynamite gun. The gun merely kills bodies; the tongue kills reputations and ofttimes ruius characters. Each gun works alone; each loaded tongue has a hundred accom plices. Th: havoc of the gun Is visible at once. The full evil of the tongue lives through all the years; even the eye of Omniscience might grow tired iu tracing It to its finality. The crimes of the tongue are words of unklndness, of anger, of mal.ee, of envy, of bitter ness, of harsh criticism, gossip, lying and Bcandal. Theft and murder are awful crimes, yet in any single year the aggregate sorrow, pain and suffer ing they cause In a nation Is micro scopic when compared with the sor rows that come from the crimes of the tongue. William George Jordan. 8nmething New In Kentucky. Fairbanks of Indiana and Shaw of Iowa were stumping Kentucky. After a successful meetiug the Kentucky colonel who had the two Republican statesmen iu charge invited them into the hotel bai.oom for some refresh ment. "Whnt'll you have?" he asked Sena tor Fairbanks. "A little cold apollinarls," was the reply, "And you?" said the host to Gov ernor Shaw. "I think I will have a glass of but termilk." The barkeeper turned to the Ken tucklan. "What shall I give you, colo nel?" be asked. The Kentucky gentleman heaved a long sigh. "Under the circumstances," he said, "I think you can give me a piece of pie." 8chopenhjuer on Innocence. Innocence Is in its very nature stu pid. The first criminal and murderer, Cain, who acquired a knowledge of guilt, and through guilt acquired a knowledge of vlrtue by repentance, and so came to understand the meaning of life. Is a tragical figure more shrnifl cant and almost more respectable than all the lnuocent fools in the world put together. FRANK H. JONES, DEFAULTER.

LOOK OUT FOE IMITATIONS With Tags About the Same Color and Design As This The quality of tha genuine sun cured tobacco used in REYNOLDS' Sun Cured and grown on soil where the best sun cured tobacco grows, has caused imitation brands to be brought out and offered as the genuine Reynolds' Sun Cured to unsuspecting dealers and ohewers who do not look closely at the printing on the box and on the tag These brands only imitate the outward appcaratice and do not possess the genuine inside quality that has been found in Reynold's Sun Cured ever since Reynolds' Sun Cured was introduced and which has so increased the chewing of sun cured tobaccos and proven so popular, that the word "Sun Cured " is now printed on tags or in the advertising of many brands claimed to be genuine sun cured tobacco. Did you ever see the word "Sun Cured" used in any chewing tobacco advertisement, oi on any chewing tobacco tag or label, or in any other vay, before it was introduced and used to identify the genuine Reynold.;' Sun Cured? You see it frequently non because many imitation brands are being made to appear as nearly like Reynolds' Sun Cured as they dare with tag, shape of plug and style of package so similar that experienced buyers sometimes accept these imitations as the genuine Reynolds' Sun Cured. Don't be deceived into taking imitation Irands for the genuine. Be sure the letters on the trig spell " R-e-y-n-o-l-d-s' Sun Cured," and you get the best vr.iue in sun cured chewing tobacco that can be produced for chewers. Sold at 50c. per pound in 5c. cuts; strictly 10c. and 15c. plugs, with "hewing qualities like that which was sold from GQc. to 1.0 ' r pound before Reynolds' Sun Cured was offered to the trade.
