Tho visitor of an English health
resort has issued the following notice:
"To meet the convenience of visitors,
arrangements have been made with
the vicar of the parish for the burial
of guests at greatly reduced fees.
The privilege may be withdrawn if
it is abused."

There is something about Hunt's
Lightning Oil that no other liniment
possesses. Others may be good, but
It is surely the best. It does all you
recommend it for, and more. For
sprains, burns, cuts, aches and pains
it has no equal on earth. It starn
head on my medicine shelf.
Very truly yours,

Hugging Bear Evidently Did Not
Know the Summer Girl.
The great performing Russian bear
had escaped from the captivity under
which he had chafed for so many
months; but he was finding that liber-
ty had its drawbacks. For many
weary hours he had prowled, but noth-
ing in the shape of food had he seen.
Suddenly he gave a growl of delight,
for, sitting on a stile,he espied a tooth-
some little lady, who was evidently
awaiting the coming of a young man.
Bruin did not stop to ponder upon
his good-fortune; he seized her in a
mighty hug. For a while she said
nothing; but as he exerted more of his
tremendous strength she murmured:
"I don't think you are quite so
strong as you were, Gerald."
Then once more melancholy settled
upon Bruin. He had done his best;
but the young ladies of this country
were beyond him.
With a roar of despair he retraced
his steps to the menagerie, and gave
himself up without a struggle.—Lon-

Capt. Burns Cured of Pea Soup.
The following was frequently told
by Capt. Martin Burns of Bangor, Me.,
as one on him:
The captain was very fond of split
pea soup, and before leaving port he
always put in a good-sized stock of
split peas. On this occasion, however,
his negro steward got whole peas, and
so the soup that the captain called for
on the first day out was thrown away.
The next day pea soup was again
served, and this time the captain, after
having eaten a hearty meal, said to his
steward: "Steward, that's the kind of
soup I like; we'll have some more just
liKe it to-morrow."
"Fo de Lawd's sake, cap'n," ex-
claimed the steward, "ma jaws am so
tired chewing dem whole peas dat Ah
just can't chem no mo."
The captain never asked for pea
soup again.
Don't Use Slang.
"A lady used the expression 'Gee'
the other night," says an exchange.
It had never occurred to her that this
was taking the name of the Lord in
vain, and probably few of many who
indulge in sugar-coated profanity re-
alize that they are swearing. What is
"Gee" though, but a euphemism for
"Jesus?" "Dear me" is nothing but
the Latin "Deo Meo" (My God), "For
Goodness Sake" is only for "God's
Sake." "Drat it" is "God rot it."
"Judas Priest" is "Jesus Christ." "Gol-
ly," "Gosh," "Glory," etc., are only va-
riations of "Damn it." In short, there
is probably not an expression of this
sort that cannot be tracked to an oath
for its origin. I
Club of Deaf Women
A club lias been formed by deaf
women of Berlin. A hundred mem-
bers meet weekly In Wllhelm Strasse,
where they drink tea as they con-
verse in the sign language or with
tho aid of ear trumpets.
Q52L flZ, jS*
The Gift.
Hate promised mo my wish, and I replied:
"Fortune for them who have no higher
thought,,
And lnme tor those whose souls may so
be bought—
But give me love, and I am satisfied."
I spoke, and straight one stood there at
mv side,
A child of sorrow on whose face grief
had wrought
Such misery a.s nowhere else ts taught
For man's irruigining. And then I cried:
"Oil liar, fate, beshrew thee for thy
guile!
Thou sendest me this poor and sorry
thing
When it was love that I had asked of
thee?"
The grave-eyed stranger smiled—oh.
such a smile
One sees but on the mask of suffering—
And sadly made me answer: "X am he."
—Reginald Wright Kauffman, in Tom
Watson's Magazine

Failed to Capture Whales.
Excitement was caused recently
among the shipping at Port Elizabeth,
Cape Colony, by the appearance of
two large whnle«, a bull and a cow.
Their gambols were watched by a
large number of spectators. Several
fishing boats and tugs went after
them, and one succeeded in getting a
harpoon home in the cow. A whaler's
crew then had an exciting lime, the
whale towing the boat about the of-
llng until nearly three o'clock, when
it managed to break away. More
boats and tugs then Joined in the
chase, but failed to get within strik-
ing distance.
