FRIDAY JUNE 29 1900.
Gru< Om McNkwSyL
Some men seem to
defy old age. They
walk erect. Their {
eyes are bright. Their Bs®® 5
laugh is hearty. They :
are men of to day—-
not men of yesterday. Jff\\
They are also men /« 1 I
who have kept l I
themselves in good Cl 11
physical condition kiHRVAU I
the past As we grow
older waste matter I Kbu
accumulates in the I I* j
system. The body 1 — u ■” J
cannot throw it off without assistance. So
little by little the machinery of the body is
Clogged vitality is enjoyment
of life ceases. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery cannot make old men young
but it does make them strong and healthy.
By removing the waste accumulations by
increasing the blood supply by strength
ening the stomach and organs of diges-
tion and nutrition and thus increasing the
assimilative and nutritive powers "Golden
Medical Discovery” makes grand old men.
" I suffered for six years with constipation and
indigestion during which time I employed sev-
eral physicians but they could not reach my
case” writes Mr. G. Poppiewell of Eureka
Springs Carroll Co.. Ark. "I felt that there was
no help for me. could not retain food on my
stomach; had vertigo and would fall helpless to
the floor. I commenced taking Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery and little • Pellets.' I
am now in good health for one of my age—6o
years. I owe it all to Dr. Pierce's medicines."
Dr. Pierce’s Pellets greatly benefit old
men by keeping the bowels in activity.

Aa Incident Which Shows That Even
Dogs Apparently Laugh When
a Man Mlipa Up.
For some reason or other everybody
laughs at a man who falls on a slip-
pery pavement. The spectacle seems
also to appeal to the sense of humor in
dogs.
Walking up Fifth avenue says the
New York Sun was a well-built vig-
orous hardy young man who was
leading a dog by a leather stap. It was
a cold blustery windy March day.
The young man didn't care a snap
for that. He never thought of it par-
ticularly one way or the other but
just plunged ahead with the dog trot-
ting along beside him; but the dog.
though not exactly dejected was de-
EVEN THE DOG LAUGHED.
cidedly not interested in this airing;
keeping right up with its master be-
cause it liked him and wanted to do
what he wanted but for all that carry-
ing its tail down between its legs and
shrinking generally without regard to
pride or appearances seeing nothing
paying attention to nothing just trot-
ting along there in a frozen perfunc-
tory way and anxious only to have the
walk over and get inside of doors again.
But presently there happened some-
thing that woke the dog up; its mas-
ter hnd fallen down. Ten thousand
men more or less had stepped on the
same icy spot and passed over it safe-
ly while he as sure-footed as any of
the lot no doubt had stepped on it and
slipped. By the one chance in a mil-
lion he had hit it in just the right way
and it floored him.
But though thrown off his feet.hewas
not thrown off his balance. He went
down smiling andhe preserved the same
smiling demeanor after he had struck
and while he was getting up. While to
be sure everybody around who had
seen him fall smiled too. But the most
interesting feature of the incident was
found in the action of the dog. Jump-
ing forward while its master was still
on the ground it headed around toward
him and stood there and bobbed its
head and arched its back and wobbled
its tail between its legs all indicating
pronounced though repressed emo-
tion. Of course it tnay have been that
all this was simply intended by the
dog as an expression of its sympathy
with its master in his little misfortune
butit lookei for all the world as though
the dog with due and decorous re-
gard for its master’s feelings was yet
smiling at him with the rest.
LOST HIS WHISKERS.
Waco
Long; Island Schoolmaster Has an
I nfortnnate Encounter with
an Inrulj Pupil.
Jared Barbite principal of the Hunt-
ington Union school of Huntington L.
1. is said to be of the opinion that only
a smooth-faced man should preside
over the destinies of Huntington’s
leading institution of learning.
Principal Barbite says the New
York Journal has whiskers—luxurious
ones. He had more than he has now.
Henry White was a pupil in Miss M.
Adile Arity's class. He was unruly one
day last week and she gave him a note
to take to Principal Barbite. In the
language of a boy friend: “Harry
White is a nice little boy —the same as
a lion —a nice animal when let alone."
The son of the village constable did
not think his position as son of his of-
ficialfather warranted him carrying the
note to Principal Barbite. So he took
it to his father and next morning ap-
pearedat school as usual. Miss M. Adile
Arity told him that he must go to the
principal and submit to punishment.
Harry was not slow to say that his
father was the only one who could lick
him.
Principal Barbite was naturally
wrathful at this insubordination. He
advanced. White bided his time. With
a quick movement he wound his fingers
in the long beard of the elder —the lat-
ter's pride —and twisted till Mr. Bar-
bite’s dignity was a memory merely.
It is said that when White’s hand left
the principal’s face a good-sized bunch
of whiskers came with it. The jan-
itor vouches for this.
The matter was laid before the board
of education. They decided that an
apology was suf’eient to reinstate
young White in rehocl.

Fott Stevens during the only Imitle
fought in the District of Columbia.

our skirmishers deployed; there a
bouse was burned there another and
still another; over these trenches went
the brave soldiers of the Sixth corps.

sure and that is the place where Pres-
ident Lincoln stood witnessing the
tight; there by Ills side a surgeon was
wounded by a niinie ball.
“’I entreated the president net to
expose his life to 'thebullets of the
enemy; but he seemed oblivious to his
surroundings; finally when I found
that my entreaties failul 'to make any
impression upon him. I said: ‘ Mr.
ITesident. I know you ore commander
of the armies of the United States but
I am in command here* and as you are
not safe where you are standing and
I am jiersonally responsible for your
personal safety. I order you to come
down.' Mr. Lincoln looked at me
smiled and then more iu consideration
of my earnestness than from inclina-
tion stepped down and took a position
behind the parapet. Even then he
would perists in standing up and ex-
posing his fall form.’ ”

A young man of good ability and lib-
eral education writes President James
Ree at the New York Commercial
Teachers’ association in the July
number of "Success” applied for a po-
sition paying one thousand dollars a
year.. The letter was written from
a large city and did not contain the
street and number of the applicant
The recipient could have obtained the
full address from another source but
this omission caused the application
to be considered unfavorably. Anoth-
er applicant lost a position thifiugh
failure to remove his hat during un in-
terview-. Another wore soiled linen. A
few cents invested in a laundry bll
would have yielded a large return
in that instance. It is not indispen-
sable to have the assistance of influen-
tial relatives© and friends in order to
ob»ain a desirable position. Let any
young man show his w»rth in any re-
putable school which makes a spec-
ialty of training young men and wom-
en for business vocations and he will
have )ittle difficulty in obtaining re-
munerative employment.
