BUILDING A BARN WITHOUT BOARD A carpenter would not think of building a barn without boards would he? And he doesn’t simply order boards and leave it go nt that. He selects the kinds of wo«is he needs, the pro)>er lengths and thicknesses. Yet isn’t It a fact that you are attempting to erect the building which is to hold your Fortune without a Bank account? You can no more do it than a carpenter can build a barn without boards. And in a selection of a Bauk that is to be your Bank, it is essential to your success that you choose one that will give you personal attention. That is the character of Bank you need in your business.

ENDED IN DEATH FOR SOTH Onlooker Graphically Describes Duel Between Powerful Grizzly Bear and Active Puma. When the grizzly saw the puma his wicked little dark eyes glowed suddenly red, and be came up with a lumbering rush, writes Charles G. D. Roberts in the Ladies' Home Journal With his gigantic furry bulk it looked as If he must Instantly annihilate the slim, slight creature that opposed him. It was a dreadful place to give battle, on that straight shelf of rock overhanging a sheer drop of perhaps a thousand feet. But seom and rage together blinded the sagacity of the *b< ar. With a grunt he charged. Not till the bear was within ten feet of her did the crouching puma stir. Then, with a harsh screech, she shot into the air aa if hurled upward by the release of a mighty spring Quick as a flash the grizzly shrank backward upon his haunches and swept up a huge black paw to parry the assault. But he was not quite quick enough. The puma’s spring overreached his guard. She landed fairly upon his back, facing his tail, iu the fraction of a second she had whirled about and was tearing at his throat with teeth and claws, while the terrible talons of her hindpaws ripped at bis flanks. With a roar of agony and amazement the grizzly struggled to shake ' off the puma, clutching and striking at her with paws that at one blow could smash in the skull of the most powerful bull. But he could not reach her. Then he reared up and threw himself backward against the face of the rock, striving to crush her under his enormous weight. And in this ho almost succeeded. Just in time she writhed around outward —but not quite far enough, for one paw was caught and ground to a pulp. But at the next instant, thrust back from the rock by his own effort, the bear toppled outward over the brink of the shelf. Grappling madly to save him-., self he caught only the bowed loins of the puma, who now sank her teeth once more into his throat, while her I rending claws seemed to tear him everywhere at once. He crushed her in his grip; and. in a dreadful ball of screeching, roaring, biting, mangling rage, the two plunged downward into the dim abyss. Hogs With Rheumatism. In Farm and Fireside a contributor of an article entitled "Rheumatism Among Hogs" writes in part as follows: "Once I had the genuine hog cholera among my hogs, but the disease that has appeared most often is rheumatism. I have had two uncommonly severe cases. Both animals were sows about seven months old and expected to farrow in the May following. The one attacked first showed a little lameness in one hind le? which soon extended to the other, then to all her legs and apparently to every joint iu her body. "There was a stiffness in her neck, which she could hardly bend sideways, and the muscles seemed so sore that i Miy attempt to use them gave pain. "A few days after the first one was attacked the other became afflicted in the same manner, but not quite so badly. "They had but little appetite and not much thirst, but would eat a small quantity of meal and milk when driven to the trough. One got well, the other died after being sick • several weeks.” Wheat Disappears. A’ really extraordinary disappear anc<* of wheat has taken place, the world over, since last harvest. Primary receipts in the United States '■ from July 1 to April 26 exceeded any j previous record, aggregating 346,233,000 bushels, or 132.000,000 bushels more thin last year; yet the visible supply at the end of the period was only 7,000,000 bushels more than last year. The world's shipments in the same time aggregated 543,000,000 bushels— ' this also being the largest on record,' and an increase of 108,000,000 bushels over the previous season, also 10,000,000 bushels more than the record ex- I ports of two years ago—yet the European visible supply at the end of the movement was 1,500,000 bushels less than a year ago. This shows a groat- \ er disappearance of wheat in proportion to the movement than has evei been known. It indicates an enor- 1 nions consumption; also the necessity of continued large crops to keep sup > plies anywhere near a normal basis. , Pastor’s Mistake. Shortly after an angry looking couple had flounced out of the chape) the pastor of a busy church presented a perplexed countenance before the busy sexton. 'As you know,” eald he, “I am new in this parish and new in the city Perhaps there are a few things J ought to know. Why, for instance do : > many people who never attend service in this church wish to be married here?” “Because our church,” said the ssx ton, “han the name of turning out the youngest and handsomest brides Ir town. Our reputation for good work? is dwarfed by our reputation for gooc looks, especially among brides. Tc say that a woman is married in this church is equivalent to saying that she is good looking. We are not sup posed to deal In brides of any othei description.” "No wonder,” groaned the pastor “that that plain looking woman went I away in a huff. I earnestly advised her to bo married in her own parish ” I

The luta is qujtg in ’ keeping with waistcoats and slashed skirts. Sometimes a new fad takes a peep at fasbiondom; a few Liert cues catch at it and appropriate It for a short time. Especially are Americans slow to take up new and faddish id. as. But on its second appearance it goes like hot cakes. Do you remember the “swagger' Flicks.” as the English army ofHc> r call them, that a few women carried two or three years apo? The ones carried now are larger. ■ some of them, and overt < reuse under ' tho sun is given for carrying them. In London, Paris and Rome the • moat fashionable women, old and young, are carrying them, so that they are quite as usual as a parasol would , be heie.

-HIS VOWS FORGOTTEN LITTLE WOMAN SAD OVER ARCHIE’S LACK OF MEMORY. I Also He Was Middle-Aged and Fat, and Accidental Meeting Was Not for Her an Occasion of Great Joy. “Spiritual resurrection may be very well," sighed the little woman, accepting a cup of tea with a disgruntled sir. ’ but it ought to be confined to purely spiritual regions. I've less use for the ideas of material resurrection, this moment, than I ever had When a. period, an episode, a friendship Is d>*ad it ought to stay dead, that's , all!" ■ Yen remember Archibald Downing," as the tall woman looked her sympathetic curiosity. “Well, of course, you wouldn't remember him as well as I do. because he liked tne best, always. Indeed, he always used to say that he’d know my step across the world in the dark, and I —woU. I va3 idiot enough to believe him. I never wanted to marry him. but I was genuinely corp - when his firm sent him out to China ten years ago, and I’ve always thought I’d like to see him again. '"Well, today I did see him. I don’t know when he returned nor how long he's going to stay, and I don't want to But as I was walking up State street whom should I see before me 'but Archibald Downing! He's grown fat and middle-aged and stodgy, but I’d know his back anywhere, at anytime. I walked a little faster so as to see his face, and It was Archibald, sore enough, though a good deal j changed. I was just going to speak to him when I remembered w hat he j used to say about knowing my step, I so 1 decided to walk along behind him i and try it. And. my dear, he didn't ' know it—no, though I followed him off State street to a quieter neighborhood. and even ‘marked time' behind nim when he stepped into an empty Call to light his cigar' And all the poetry he usfd to talk about knowing my step across the world tn the Jark!” “Why didn’t you speak to him?” teked the tall woman, filling her friend's cup with consolatory unction Ten years is a long time for a man io remember." "Well, i did think of It." sighed the j little woman, sweetening her tea as though to sweeten also a sad memory. "but I decided not to. His neck showed a roll of fat above his colar and I thought that if his mind had turned as commonplace as his bedy I just simply couldn't bear it. I j feel as if I’d been to a funeral now. tnd I was afraid—l might as well ad- : mit it—to find that he’d forgotten all ; ibcut me. He was so sure he'd recognize try step through al! eternity, zou remember. And—and,” her eyes moist and her lips quivering, “I never wanted to marry Archie, but I did want him to care enough to rememi>er. No; I hope I shan’t see him igain. I shall try to forget all about his morning, and play that he's dead n China. Talk of the sadness of rteath, dearie! Nothing’s so sad as such a resurrection as I’ve seen tojay!”—Chicago Record-Herald. Alarm Locates Fire. A fire alarm box which indicates the floor on which the fire is located and also in what part, designed particuiary for factory buildings in which a large number of women are employed, taa been brought out by a Brooklyn r ’ entor. Boxes are placed on each floor. In :«sn of fire, the alarm is sounded by pushing the button indicating the part 'f the floor where it has started. If ho fire is at the east end, for Inthe button marked “East" is pushed. This sets off an alarm bell ! an all the boxes in the building and illuminates a number and letter to indicate the fire’s position. If, for ex ample, tho fire is near the center ot the third floor, "3C" will be illuminat’d on every box. This tells every per»on in the building ths location of ths fire and enables them to determine the safe.:* way to take to reach a place of safety—Popular Mechanics. Quinine Industry of Java. Java produces about two-thirds of tho world's supply of cinchona, and it has for years been regularly shipped to Holland. The large quinine manufactories. mostly situated in Germany, supply themselves In the Dutch market, and of late years the manufacturers havo combined to keep the prices »t such low level as to render ths cinchona cultivation unprofitable, although earning large dividends. To meet thle combination It was resolved to establish a quinine factory in Java, says tho British consul at whore the first Java quinine has been produced. This is described as of exirlterA quality and equal in all r<spect/ to the best European brands, fuisi year the total production of cinchona tn the island was over 8,500,000 avoirdupois.—London Globe.
