If you have never used it and should be afilictcd with a cough, cold or any tliroat. lung or chest trouble, secure a bottle at once and give it a fair trial. Ii is guaranteed every time, or money refunded. Trial bottles at M. C. Quigley's drug store.

In lambent flashes. Wt'le thro' the blue, thick, curling ha7* I strive with feeble eyes to gaae Upon the half forgotten days

That left bur. ashes

Agaiii we wander through the lane. Beneath the elms and out again, Across the rippling fields ov' grain

Where softly plashes A slender brook "mid banks of tern. At every sight my pulses burn. At every thought 1 slowly turn

And find but ashes

What made my fingers tremble so As you wrapped skeins of worsted sv~ow Around them, now with movements slow

And now with dashes'' Maybe tis smoke that blinds my eyes. Maybe a tear within them lie:-.: But as I puff my pipe there (lies

A cloud of ashes

Perhaps you did not understand How lightly flames of love were t'ar.ncj. All, every thought and wish I've planned

With something clashes! And yet within my lotielv den Over a pipe, away from men. I love to throw asfde my pen

And stir the ashes. —De Witt Sterry in .Juclga.

A New Cigar Borror.

Among the latest imitations which have been successfully introduced into the tobacco trade of this city and other cities are cigars, the wrappers of which are .made out of a specially perfume-* paper. A gentleman well known in the iron manufacturing circles of tins vicinity was the first to inform a Commercial Gazette reporter that smoking material of this kind was new in the market. He has recently returned froir a visit to Norfolk, Va., where he met a drummer for a large tobacco factory of New York state. This gentleman informed the Pitts burger that he was then introducing an imitation cigar wrapper which was so deceiving in its character that experts could scarcely distinguish it from the genuine.

This preparation was made from rye straw, and one portion of the process was to steep the material in a strong solution made from tobacco stems. The grain of the straw, together with thr manner in which the material was dressed, would lead any person to suppose that it was a sample of the leaf used in making wrappers for cigars of a more than ordinary quality. The flavor of tobacco was also present, owing to the paper having been immersed in the solution made from the genuine article. —Pittsburg Commercial.

Civil Service Examinations. Chief Clerk Webster, a man of groat zeal and usefulness in his work, denies that school girls and boys have a better chance in these examinations than mjn arid women of more mature years. That the competitors are not school children is shown by the average age of candidates. which is about 30 years. It is noteworthy, however, that the average age of those who fail is always greater than that of those who succeed. Of common school graduates 36 out of 100 fail, as against only 17 of 100 of high school graduates. Among candidates who claim academic or collegiate education the percentage of failure is nearly 30, and 'the business college graduates do but 2 or 3 per cent, better.

Not many of the problems are difficult. A majority are in simple addition, multiplication and subtraction. Few fail on these, but may do on such questions as— "Express in figures the following numbers: One hundred and nineteen billion, oue hundred and twenty-one million, eleven thousand and forty-one one hundred thousandths:" and also on such as this—"Express in «vords the following numbers: 0.844,571.431.03." Washington Letter.

lucreKso of the ltuli.'in.s.

The Indian population of the United States is increasing slowly. Not including Alaska, the Indian population on reservations is 264.599, of which 21,300 are mixed bloods. It appears, by the 1887 government statistics, that for that year there were 4,794 births and 3,888 deaths, leaving an increase of only one-third of one per cent. Of course this varies on different reservations, as in New Mexico the increase was over two per cent. But it is observed that, with this one exception, where the Indian population is comparatively large, as in the Indian territory, Dakota, Montana, Washington, Arizona and California, there is little or no increase. The education of Indian children is going on the number of Indian schools in 1887 being 231, with an average attendance of 10,245, at a cost of $1,095,379 to the United States, while in 1878 the number of schools vas 137, average attendance, 3,489, and cost for their support, $195.853.—New York Telegram.

Where They Weaken.

The timidity of people when in the presence of death is frequently shown at coroners' inquests. When a witness is ushered into the presence of the jury the coroner recites the formal oath, which concludes with the words, "the person whose body lies here dead." Thes* ghostly words agitate nervous witnesses and more especially ladies, who frequently look about in a startled manner, with a view of locating the subject of the inquest. Of course the corpse is seldom ir. the same room with the jury.—St. Paui Pioneer Press.

fe: Street Car Ways in Washington. A woman approaches a street car, which has already waited three minutes for her. Leisurely she walks along one whole side of the open car seeking a seat, I and, not finding one to her liking, goes I around on the other side. The conductor says not a word and makes no sign. He is accustomed to that sort of thing. If any of the passengers manifest impatience you can depend on it they are new comers.

Let Us Be Joyful.

Everything in nature indulges in amusements. The lightning plays, the wind whistles, the thunder rolls, the snow flies, the waves leap, and the fields smile. Even the trees shoot and the rivers and streams run.—Scranton Truth.
