[ AS BAD AS A FIRE.
Traveler In Texan Wan Compelled
to Move Three Times In
One Hixht.
“Did you ever sleep in three differ
ent towns and in three different hotels
In one night, paying three times for a
rather incomplete night’s rest?”
The old traveling man threw out the
question in an unconcerned way after
having listened in silence for an hour
while the other members of the Corner
club reeled off yard after yard of stories
about the road, its pleasures, its dan
' gers and its humors. The pause that
followed was only broken by some vio
lent but futile efforts by the stutterer
to launch a sentence.
“Well, I have done it,” the old travel
ing man continued. “And I may add
that although I have been kept on the
road for 20 years 1 have never met a man
who was able to boast of the same ex
perience. It came about in this wayi
I was down in Texas in 1831 and 1882,
and New Year's day found me in a small
town called Longview, with my nose
turned in the direction of the neighbor
ing town of Tyler. To get to one of
these towns from the other you must
travel on two different railroads and
cover about 40 miles of ground, al
though the towns are hardly more than
15 miles apart as the crow flies. Long
view is on the International & Great
Northern, while Tyler is on the Mineola
branch of the Texas Pacific. The two
railroads cross each other at a junc
tion called Troop, about 24 miles from
Longview and 18 miles from Tyler.
“I was having my dinner in the hotel
at ijougview auoui six o ciocx on me
evening of New Year's day, when a first
elass norther came swooping down
upon us. If you have never met a genu
ine Texas norther pray that you may
be spared from having the experience.
The wind will spring up without a mo
ment’s warning, and I have seen it low
er the temperature 50 degrees in 60min
utes. Everyone had been going around
in his shirt sleeves. After the norther
began an ulster was needed. There
was no fire in the house and no com
fort. My train did not leave until 11:10
p. m. The only thing I could think of
was to take a room and go to bed, and so
1 did. I awoke at 10:30, jumped into my
clothes and caught my train.
“My watch showed a few minutes
after midnight when I arrived at
Troop and heard that the west-bound ;
train on the Texas Pacific was any way
from two to three hours late. A band
of immigrants was waiting for the same
train and they filled the waiting-room.
Some were cooking a meal on the red
hot stove in the middle of the room.
Others were sleeping on the benches
and on the floor. There was not a va
cant seat to be had and the atmosphere
was indescribable. The air outside was !
pure enough, but the thermometer reg
istered ten degrees above zero, which is
not a very comfortable temj^rature
for a man without an overcoat or j
gloves. There was only one way to keep [
warm—to cross the tracks to the little j
hotel opposite The station and crawl ,
into a warm bed for a couple of hours, j
and this 1 did.
"I slept till 4:15 and caught the be- '
later] train at 4:43. There was only one
passenger, who left the train when we
reached Tyler at 5:15, and that was I.
It was pitch dark then, cold as Alaska
and so quiet that your steps sounded
like hammer beats along the streets.
No one was stirring in the hotel at that
time and it took me aouarter of an hour
to wake up an old negro who was sleep
ing on the floor in the office. The first
thing I did whan 1 got inside the house
was to dig out the keys to the bar and
to gulp down two big drinks of whisky, j
And then I asked for a fire.
•“ 'No coal, massa,’ the old nigger an- j
swered, grinning like a split water- ,
melon; ‘no wood, no miffing. Massa had
better go to bed.'
“And so I did, to be sure, for the third
time that, night. It was 5:45 o’clock
in the morning then and I slept like a
dead man till 9:30. Have you ever
heard the like of it? And yet nty lodg
ing for that night cost me only $1.50, or
50 cents at each hotel. The fun of it,
when it was all over, was worth $1.50, ;
I think.”—N. Y. Stm.

Frail* Replace Flowers.
Fruits are replacing flowers as deco !
rations for the table, and for this pur- j
pose are used not fruit bought by the
pound, but fruit on its branches. These j
branches are entwined in the hanging i
lamps, forming a sort of cradle whence 1
hang fresh currants, shining cherries, !
plums with the bloom on them, golden i
apricots, etc. On the table, in little flat '
glass dishes shaped like leaves, are ar- j
ranged cherries, currants and other i
fruit in season. These cut glass dishes j
are made in a very practical form' with ;
a second compartment in which are
placed powdered sugar and a little \
spoon. There may be four or six of !
them, of fairly large size, or else little
ones may be chosen, in which case there
should be one to each guest. New and
ingenious ideas for laying the tables
are being continually introduced. Thus j
beside the plates are placed small cres- j
eent-shaped plates for salad, and some
times delicate little silver knives and
forks, used only for this purpose—as
in the ease of fish knives—are added.—

(ouliln’l Fool Her.
She was evidently new at house
keeping ar.d marketing, but carried
herself with an air intended to impress
people with the opinion that she knew
all about it, and wasn’t going to be im
posed upon. It was at the Bonsecours
market before a fish stall.
‘'Lobster, madam? Oh, yes'” said
the dealer, with deference. "Very nice
Ones this morning. Here is a first-class
one, madam,” he said, exhibiting on•>
;n its sell of glistening emerald.
The alert customer tossed her head
anil exclaimed:
“Oh, no! You can’t fool me with any
of your green, unripe lobster*I I want
a mi one!”—Montreal Star.

THE MODERN SANDWICH
Made Now In Sixty-Four Varieties,
and New Kinds Constantly
Being Added.
4. lan of 50 who had chanced never
i tc ' iir of sandwiches from the time he
j wa' a boy, when they were confined
principally to three varieties—ham,
; tongue and corned beef—and when,
\ aside from what hind he would take, the
| chief question was whether he would
! have mustard on it, might be shr
1 prised to learn that nowadays sand
j wiches are made in more varieties than
his own years number; considerably
more. In one big lunch establishment
there are made sandwiches in 04 va
rieties. The differences between some
of these varieties would be slight, but
at the same time they would be cleat
and distinct; and there would regular
ly be found on sale on the counter
more than 20 varieties always ready.
The others include varieties more or
less peculiar to some season, or sand
wiches supplied to order, as many
sandwiches are nowadays.
Besides the familiar bam, tongue,
corned beef, roast beef, turkey and
chicken sandwiches, there are sold in
these days, either already prepared or
made to order, a dozen varieties of
what may be called fish sandwiches,
these including the 'commonly sold
sardine sandwiches and anchovy sand
wiches and sandwiches made with
little fishes called sardelles, and solm
on sandwiches, and sandwiches made
with muskallonge, soft shell crab sand
wiches, lobster sandwiches, shrimp
sandwiches, codfish sandwiches, and
sandwielies made with a fried codfish
cake between slices of bread. Of cheese
sandwiches there are ten at least, In
cluding many regularly supplied and
others made to ortler.
There are sold nowadays sandwiches
made of various kinds of salads, and
orders for such saneftviehes are not un
usual. In a place where sandwiches
in great variety are sold, If a customer
asked for a salad sandwich the waiter
wouldn’t need to ask what was want
ed. he would know and he would get
it for him without question, as a mat
ter of course, and the same would be
true if the request were for a tomato
sandwich or a sandwich made with
watercresses.
Of combination sandwiches, made
with more than one kind of meat, as
sandwiches of ham and chicken,
chicken and tongue and so on, there
are various kinds, as there are also of
sandwiches made of various materials
combined; as, for instance, sandwiches
made of minced ham and chow chow,
sandwiches of chopped chicken, sand
wiches of minced tongue and chicken,
egg sandwiches, and so on. So that it
would not be very difficult to ente
merate the 04 varieties of sandwiches
made and new varieties are being add
ed all the time.—X. Y. Sun.
Samoans Inveterate IleKssnr*.
An American who visited the Steven
sons in Samoa relates that the Samoans
have a practice of begging. They bold
ly ask for whatever they may covet
wherever it may be found. The novelist
became tired of this practice and there
fore said one day to a Samoan friend
who had acquired from him necktie,
handkerchief and some other trinket:
“Is there anything else you want?
There Is the piano,” suggested Mr.
Stevenson, ironically. “Yes,” replied
the native, “I know, but,” he added,
apologetically, “I don’t know how to
play it.”—Chicago Chronicle.
They Love Gen. Linevitch.
It will be remembered that In one
of the letters from Russian officers
quoted by George Kennan in the Out
look not a little distrust of Kuropatkln
was shown, and the writer added:
“The army knows and loves only ons
general, and that is ‘Papa’ Linevitch. |
No matter in what part of the army I
have been I have heard everywhere
the words, ‘If papasha were only
here!’ He Is the man whom both offi
cers and soldiers trust, and with him
they will take anything.”

Reward will be paid to any

of opium, chloral, morphine,
cocaine, ether or chloroform
in any form in any of Dr.
Miles’ Remedies.
This reward is offered because
certain unscrupulous persons
| make false statements about
these remedies. It is under
stood that this reward applies
only to goods purchased in the
open market, which have not
been tampered with in any way.
Dr. Miles’ remedies cure by
their soothing, nourishing,
| strengthening and invigorat
i ing effects upon the nervous
I system, and not by paralyzing
and weakening the nerves as
J would be the case if these drugs
j were used.
For this reason Dr. Miles’
? Anti-Pain Pills are universally
considered the best pain remedy
“I have suffered for 25 years with
severe pains in my head, heart and
; back, and have tried everything I
could get and could not find any relief
until 1 got a box of Dr. Miles’ Anti
Pain Pills. I suffered as long as 12
hours at a time with such severe
pains that I feared I would lose my
mind. The Anti-Pain Pills gave me
relief In from 10 to 20 minutes. I do
not have to use Morphine any more.
I wish you would publish this so that
other sufferers mav find relief.”

BRIGHT S DIS &SE|
8 Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping “it will wear away,” are B
8 drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. B
\m FOLEY'SKIDNEYCURE
■ ''of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out B
8 the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and 8
B t^ie poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, 8
B - / vcausing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. B
B LaM.If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY’S B
B ' KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a B
B A ^ fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system. ■
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE should be taken
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Years*
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
“About four year* ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment end
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I sm evidently cured to stay cured, and
heartily recommend Fobey’s Kidney Cura to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble. '
