Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass. 100 Dose On Dollar One day wnerr iittie Arthur was making mud pies in the front yard, he heard some one call him. It was his Aunt Jatoe who was standing on the front porch with a letter in her hand. "Run across the street and put this letter in the box, Arthur, please," she said. "No, I don't want to," answered Arthur, who did not like to be dis- it turoea. ,,,, So Aunt Jane went across the street herself, and mailed the letter. Not long after this, Arthur's mother asked him to take a spool of silk to Aunt Jane, who was upstairs. "No, I don't want to," he answer ed again. His mother said nothings but when she went upstairs herself with the silk she had a little talk with Aunt Jane about Arthur. . An hour later Arthur ran to Aunt Jane with a broken whip. "Please mend this, Aunt Jane,'? he cried. "No, I don't want to," said Aunt Jane, without looking up from her A Remarkable Party. Of 26 inmates of a Cincinnati hos pital who sat down to dinner one day last week 15 were over 60 years of age, eight over 70, one 83, another 87, and at the head of the table sat a woman just 104 years old. The last mentioned was Mrs. Elizabeth Schulten, who has been an inmate of the hospital for two years. She was born in Nesake, Westphalia, and well remembers seeing Napoleon just after his victory at Jena in 1806, and later on his disastrous retreat from Moscow. The old lady for a number of years has been a strict vegetarian and a great lover of coffee. Not Ezactly Biblical. "Hope Casteth Oat Pear." W. C. Douglass. Taos. J. Shaw sewing.

' i Panama Star and Herald that I did not meet the proverbial good Samaritan as I journeyed through this much favored country If one meets a tiller of the soil he will sidle ofi as far as the narrow path will allow, and scowling watch the traveler's approach. The offer of a piastre will bring Imu to a standstill. "How far is it to Nain ?" "God knows," comes the fervent answer. "How long will it take to go there ?" "As long as God pleases," he an swers, with a shrug of his shoulders and a pull at his pipe. "Shall I reach there by noon ?" "If God permit." "But may I hope to to make the distance in an hour ?'' "As God may direct," he answers, walking away. "Is Nain distant, or is it very near ?" "There," he answers, moving his finger through a wide arc. If one extracts a more neighborly spirit than this from a Samaritan he must have the mysterious power of a der vish. "Its fruit," says Noah, "whether fresh or dry is sweet and good, and it3 wine gladdens the heart." "Let us work on shares," said the devil. "Agreed," said Noah. Now what does the devil do? He brings a lamb, alion.a monkey and a hog, sacrifices them on the spot, and then mingles their blood with the soil. "What is that for?" cried Noah. Said the enemy, "These are the four stages a drunkard will have to pass through ; by taking a little he becomes as simple as a sheep, al lowing everybody to shear him; a little more, he imagines himself a lion, none so violent as he;, a little more, he becomes a monkey, jump ing and dancing and imitating all foolishness.
