No Snoring
Postmaster General Payne the othei
day told a story of something that he
ance Baw in a Milwaukee court room.
Through the kindness and tact of the
fudge the court crier was saved from
t fine.
"I one day attended," said Mr.
Payne, "a session of the court at
which this judge presided. The court
crier was a very old man; he had
served with fidelity for many years,
but age was beginning now to tell on
him. He fell asleep while I was. in
the court room, and in a little while
be was snoring.
"The snorer, of course, disturbed the
proceeding* of the court, but the
judge showed great tact In interrupt
ing, without embarrassing, the cr er.
" 'Crier Jones,' he said in a loud
voice. 'Crier Jones, some one is snor.
ins!' ,
"The crier awakened with a start
and jumped to his feet.
"'Silence!' he exclaimed. There
must be no snoring in the court
room/ and he glared fiercely all about
him."—Philadelphia Press.
v A PECULIAR CASE.
Bridgeport, Ala., April 25th. A re-
markable case and orte which has puz-
zled a great many people is reported
here. It is the case of a lady who evi-
dently came very nearly having
paralysis. Her name is Mrs. Martha
Glasscock, and she tells the following
interesting story:
"I was afflicted with a tingling sen-
sation in my flesh and burning in the
soles of my feet and at times I wou d
be chilly and my feet and legs would
feel as if they had gone to sleep. I
suffered in this way for over six years^
I was very much run down, and did
not seem able to get anything that
would do me good, until I commenced
a treatment of a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills.
"In & short time every symptom or
my old trouble was gone and 1 was
feeling better and stronger than 1 had
for years. I gained ten pounds in
weight in three months. I can eat
heartily and I don't look like the
same person. I feel that I owe my
life to Dodd's Kidney Pills. I wish
I could tell every sick woman what
they have done for me."
"Sometimes when a man thinks spe
cially well of hisse'f," said Uncle Eben,
simply goes to show dat he s a po
jedge o' human nature."—Washington

Hew Unused Doorway May Be Con-

The illustration depicts an exceed-
ingly ambitious treatment for an un-
used doorway, which, if well carried
out. will make a groat furnishing addi-
tion to a room at a comparatively
small cost, and one which will be
found specially useful when a room
has two doors, one only being used.
Immediately over the top of the door
is a wide shelf for pottery, this being
exceedingly novel in treatment, in as-
much as it has a wooden piece undei
neath it into which the shelf brack-
ets fit; this under piece when stained
or enameled acting as a good back-
ground for two or threo choice plates
