Colean confessed to 1). F. Coon,pres-
ident of the bank, in the West End
hotel in St. Louis late last Saturday
night that he had lost J?' ,uOO in spcc-
ulaiing in stocks and bonds. An in-
vestigation showed that the thieft had
been systematically practiced for a
per.od of over two years, and covered
up by a manipulation of the bank
books.
The bank oflieia 1 s made the follow- j
ing statement: "Mr. Colean has been i
engaged for a considerable period of I
time (we do not know exactly how
long) in appropriating the funds of
the bank to iiis own private use. to the |
extent of about $J« ,o<K), so far as
learned lie lias probably been spec-
ulating in stocks and bonds and lost j
the money. The loss will fall wholly \
upon the stockholders, as the a>sets of I
the bank are amply sufficient to pa}'
all depositors. It will take some little ;
time to realize on the assets, but tho
officer* of the bank arc fully assured!
of their sufficiency to pav all claims. |
The llrst intimation of any shortage i
came to the bank late Saturday night,
and not to the full extent until open-
ing time this morning."

AN OFFENDED OSTRICH.
An Innocent Kitten Mistook llli Legs
for ttapltng* and Climbed Tp.
(From the Philadelphia Press.)
The ostrich at the Zoological Garden
stood in the long yard adjoining its
cage in the deer house yesterday. It
gazed contemplatively through the bars
of the fence at the world beyond and
shivered every once iu a while as the
cool breezes swept down upon it. It
was thinking of the difference in cli-
mates nnd wondering whether if it
buried one of its eggs as it used to do
in the long grass during such weather
the cool wave would hatch out an ice
cream churn.
While it was revolving the question
in its mind a playful kitten came
through the fence into the yard. It
was a pretty kitten—pure white, ex-
cept for a few blotches that looked as
if somebody had thrown an ink bottle
at it, after carefully removing the cork.
The kitten went running along the yard
until it came to the ostrich. Thinking
its long, thick legs were young sap-
lings the playful kitten gave a run and
quickly climbed up them and was soon
on top of the ostrich's back.
The huge bird did not know what to
make of It at first, and went cantering
around the yard as though the plague
were after It. Round and round it went
until red in the face it came to a sud-
den stop. The kitten never moved. It
had taken a firm hold of the ostrich
and did not propose to he shaken.
"I stood the earthquake this morn-
ing." said the kitten; "I guess I can
stand this."
Finding that the strange beast re-
fused to be thus summarily disposed of
the ostrich became less scared and more
angry. It curled its neck and twisted Its
head so as to get a fair look at the kit-
ten. The kitten never winced. It began
to think it had barked up the wrong
tree, hilt it was determined to see the
matter out. The ostrich aimed a blow
at the undesirable rider with its beak,
but it dodged. It tried it again, but the
result was the same. Again and again
the agile head and long neck rained
sledge-hammer blows at the tricky lit-
tle kitten. It escaped them all, though
some were too near for comfort.
Finally the kitten got scared. It ran
out on the ostrich's nerk to get out of
the way. Then it smiled. The ostrich
couldn't hit it there. It's smile did not
last long, however. With a sudden
movement the ostrich stretched Its
neck backward, encircled the kitten
round the waist, and squeezed it until
it was dead. Then It unwound Itself
and placidly looked at the dead animal.
After a moment or two of contempla-
tion it picked up its victim and flung
it as far at it could. Then it calmly re-
sumed the meditations that had been
so ruthlessly interrupted.

Hp Frit Draught.
"My father," said Simpson, solemnly,
'was more sensitive to colds than any-
body I ever knew. The slightest ex-
posure gave him a cold."
"That must have been very disagree-
able."
"Indeed, it was. He never could sit
near a draught for a minute without
catching a cold. I remember on one oc-
casion he was sitting in the house of
a friend when all at once my father be-
gan to sneeze. He insisted that there
was a draught in the room. Every ef-
fort was made to discover where the
draught was, but in vain. The doors
and windows were closed and there
was no fireplace, but my father kept
on sneezing and insisting that there
must be a draught in the room, and
so there was."
"Where was It?"
"It was found that the stopper had
been left out of the vinegar bottle."

Timely Warning\
The great success of the chocolate preparations of
t tho house of Walter Baker & Co. (established
in 1780) has led to the placing on tho market
many misleading and unscrupulous imitations
of their name, labels, and wrappers. Walter
Baker &, Co. are the oldest ar.ti largest manu-
facturers of pure and high-grade Cocoa3 and
Chocolates on this continent. No chemicals aro
used in their manufactures.
Consumers should ask for, and bo sure that
they get, the genuine Walter Baker & Co.'s goods.

Sorrowing from health.
I f you have borrowed from
health to satisfy the demands
of business, if your blood is ,
not getting that constant
supply of fat from your food
it should have, you must
pay back from somewhere,
and the somewhere will be
from the fat stored up in
the body.
The sign of this borrowing is thinness; the result, nerve-
waste. You need fat to keep the blood in health unless you
want to live with no reserve force—live from hand to mouth.
