HAVING remodeled our industrial system so far that employers could not get business nor employes work and our tariff so as to open our markets to the world and close some of the best foreign markets to our producers, Democratic statesmanship proposes next to remodel our financial system. Their last efforts in this line (before the war) gave the country a paper money which was "flexible" in the sense that it was never, save by rare chance, of the same value two

A NEVADA JOKE.

Bow a Wag Played It on an Innocent Visiting Sportsman. Nothing caii be more interesting in an ordinary way than the fate of practical jokers. Shooters and sportsmen generally will appreciate the latest from Eureka, Nev. Bent on landing game, a visitor held forth in his hotel with regard to his ability to bring quail to earth. Among the audienco was a wag, who, being a sport himself, was desirous of testing the foreigner's ability as a shot. "We do not shoot quail," said he, "we bag them, and if you want to go out you may do so tonight and see better fun than any gun can furnish."

Accordingly the soi disant gamester journeyed out from a small hotel in Nevada to see. the extraordinary plan by Which quail could be "bagged" at nighttime. The party walked two miles into the hills and arranged a trap by laying down 86 pieces of candle in shapa "Into this," they explained, "we'drive the quail, and one of us holds a sack at the end of tho V, into winch the quail run." By a previous arrangement an argument was commenced as to who should have the honor of holding the sack and securing the birds while the remainder did thq hard work of, beating to a a

When tlig point was apparently settled, one of tho party said: "No, this is not fair. Mr. do is our guest iind as such is entitled to hold the sack. Generously enough,. to: the bgahLing sportsmau was given the honor of holding a bag bound at the'mouth to a hoop so as to catch the birds.' All'the others left to'beat uji quail. For three hodrs the visitor faithfully held that sack, and when the last candle burned, out he fjound himself in the mid^t of a.lpnely valley, which was full of des^rted^eljafts and other dangerous holes, two miles from any house and surrounded by. a clarkness which resembles a stack of black cats. Whtfti 'he arrived 'at thii hotel and found that his cohtm'ters had been there enjoying the joke for hours, he simply went to bed and wept, fie sold his gun next morning and, l^ft for California a state where, he ^ays, "people would not do such a thing." -—San Francisco Call.

The Ad. Man.

You may talk about your editors, who sit in easy chairs And try to boss the whole machine and put on lots ol airs, And seek to make the people think it's what they have to say That keeps tlie business on tho move and makes the paper pay, But don't you never think it, for the whole truth simply is The editor's not in it with that huge conceit of his, For there's only one essential in the whole newspaper planSuccess depends alone upon tho advertising man. y-= —Nixon Waterman.

TWO SIDES TO THE QUESTION.

Ia. Fitting Spcctac! Bows to tho Ears Both Must l*o Considered. Having selected a pair of frames with a nose piece of the right height and spread to bring the glasses into the proper position, and having had them fitted with glasses made in accordance with tho oculist's prescription, the optician now proceeds to .t the completed spectacJos to your head. You mi^ht put them right ou and w^ar them off just as they are.

But, no ho reaches over and places the bows ovor yonr cars himself. Then he tries tho spectacles gently, as they rest upon youv nose, taking hold at the outer ends of tho frame, here the bows hinge. Not just right. He takes them off again and smooths tho bows out between the tips of his fingers and changes their shape a little and tries them again. Better, hut not just rirrht yet. He takes them again and siiiooins out and bends in a, liit le nioro. You observe as he hands them to you, as he does this time, that the bows have not only been changed somewhat in shape, but that now they vary in sweep and curve. You put them on and find that they fit perfectly and very comfortably. He touches them and finds them right and says so. "But the bows are not alike," you say. "No,"says the optician, "but they are now made to fit. Your ears are not just alike. One of them is a little bigger than tho other, and they are not placed exactly alike oh the head. "What?" 3'ou say, and ho says: "Yes. Tliero aro very few of us that are perfect or just alike on both sides."—Now York Snn.

SMITH WAS IN LUCK.

Drew on tlio Saltan, and, Thanks to tlio Rothschilds, Got 810,000. A largo operator and speculator ol' St. Louis, whoso account with one friendly bank had been often temporarily overdrawn, wanted $10,000 once for a certain deal, his balance in bank at the time being less than $100. Tho cashier

Suggested that. he should draw upon some party not too near St. Louis. Smith said' he did not know whom to draw upb:a. "Oh, any one," said the obliging1caghier, "as long as the party is' far Enough away^—that will give time to turn around." Smith drew at sight for $10,000 on the sultan of Turlcoy.. '.

Tlie draft was duly forwarded by the bank, reaching New York, whence it was sent to a London correspondent. It thfen came into the hands of the Rothschildsj who forwarded it to their Constantinople branch, where it was duly presented for payment to the. sultan's

{lis

ibamberlain, tltje, latter bringing it to highness. "Whb is this John Smith?'' said the sultan. ''Don'iknow,r' replied the chamberlain. "DoWe owe him anything?" "No," replied the Other. ''Theu'I'll not pay it, replied Jxis mightiness. "One .moment, if I might advise," said the astute counselor. "This draft comes through the Rothschilds, with whom wo are seeking a $ii, 000 000 loan. Would it be safe, Under the circumstances, to dishonor it?" ''Pay it,'' said the sultan, and it was paid, aud no one was more astonished tkai Joiiii fJiiiich of ,'jt.

DEAK DOCTOR:— I hear you are creating great excitement and healing the sick iu every quarter.

You are a world's wonder. God has given you'a wonderful gift indeed the greatest of all gi fts. Your correct understanding in my case gave me unbounded faith in you at the start. I paid out for doctor bills and various remedies, the twelve years* I was sick, hundreds of dollars. You completely restored me, and the cost was a trifle. Your charges are so reasonable that even the poorest of the afflicted may take your, treatment. I have no more of those terrible paroxysms, my stomach is well, and I cau now rest, eat aud sleep as well'as I ever did in my life. .VJy prayers are, that the sick all over the land may reach you in person or by letter, and receive your wpnderful treatment.
