THE FIRST BUTTERFLY. Fright turnover, with golden name. Freckled from gentle dun to flame, how hast thou dared to vcnti;*j out Ere the buds begin to sprout? When underneath the sheltering bower Arbutus hath not shown her flower. Creeping irom the modest moss, Willi her brilliant leaves of gloss; When as yet within the brook s. Leaves lie pressed as in abook; Held within the lee King’s arms Clasped about their frozen charms: Why vrert thou not wise to wait Till King Frost should abdicate? Till the bluebirds pipe in tune. Till the May looks on toward .June, Till f he dandelion’s yellow Lends the lawn a radiance mellow? These few hours of sunshine warm May prelude a fatal storin’ Bringing frost or bringing snow; Where, then, frail one, will lliougo? Robin's forty times as strong. Yet we do not hear his song. —Edward S. Creamer in New Vprk Sun. An Advantage Men Have. The longer I live the more firmly convinced I am that, men have the advantage of women in everything in life, and we shall never be their equals in the struggle till we can have many more of their privileges than custom is willing to grant us now. For instance, if a,man wants a new spring suit he simply goes to see his tailor—the same tailor he has patronized for years. The tailor shows him one line of cloth. The happy man gives a quick but comprehensive look at the goods, selects that which suits his taste from the group of materials that suits his pocket, and the deed is done. He relies on his tailor's Judgment as to whether the coat shall be sack, cutaway or frock, and so walks off. It never occurs to a man to got samples of the goods and then run around to every other tailor shop in town to see if he can't get a bargain or a little bit cheaper material that would “look Just as well." It never .occurs to a man to "talk it over” with every male friend, to discuss the new cut ip trousers and whether such a color would be becoming to him. He relies on his tailor to furnish not only a reasonably good style to his suit, but also one that is suited to his customer's individuality. Imagine a man getting on a street car and meeting two men friends and producing a lot of samples, saying; “OhI Charley. I want to show you some samples I got of my new coat. Now, don’t you think I'm too dark to wear that color? But it's so cheap,'' etc., etc., while Charley and Francis gave their opinions and inspected the samples. Wouldn't it bo funny? Then Charley should say (to make the scene complete): “Yes, but that's old. Why. they wore goods like that all last year. ' John Jerome had some trousers Just like that."—Chicago News-Record. A few days since the wife of a wealthy man jvent into a grocery store where most of tho provisions for the house were bought. She went in considerable haste to the proprietor and asked him to loan her a dollar. Her husband, she said, had gene down town and forgotten to leave her any change, and she must have a little immediately. She took tho bill, rolled it up and put it into her glove, then in an undertone said: “Phase charge that as sugar. My husband might not like it if I borrowed money." The man said "Certainly!" and the woman went out. A customer who was standing at a little distance but who was concealed from the lady by a pile of tea chests smiled to himself and then smiled at the grocer who came back to finish filling his order. Although the grocer said nothing, it was a well understood fact to the customer. as it is to many other people in largo cities, that this is not an uncommon practice. Men who are liberal with the families, us far as food and clothes go. rarely give them a cent for their.own use. They will pay any reasonable bill and many unreasonable ones, but they pay them in checks and overlook tho bills themselves, then they fancy they know what becomes of the money. Such conduct is unwise. If there is anything in the world that lias a tendency to drive a woman to underhand practices it is such lack of confidence' on tho part of her husband or father. A wise way is to make a regular allowance for each member of the family. —New York Ledger. Philadelphia Ministers Cse Typewriters. Several ministers of churches in this city have learned tho art of typewriting, and instead of using pen and ink when inditing sermons employ the means popular with business men. A reporter a few Sundays ago called on a pastor of a prosperous up town congregation for an abstract of his sermon. The,lively musjc of a typewriter was the only sound which broke the silence of the anteroom in the sacred edifice. But no fair haired damsel presided over the machine—only the divine. who was industriously completing his work as he found most convenient.— Philadelphia Press. Japanese Slow Moving Clocks. Although the Japanese clocks are divided into the same number of sections as ours, the hands travel one-half as fast The day has six hours and the night as many, so the entire round from sun to sun contains but twelve hours, et ch equivalent to two of the length to which we are accustomed. —New York Recorder.

Bartholomew county’s oldest stock buyer and auctioneer says; Total disability from rheumatism and nervous prostration has been my fate for the last eleven months. A long stay, with medical treatment at the mineral springs did me no good. I was completely discouraged and as helpless as a little child, when I commenced taking K. E? N. T. S. Soon a gradual improvement set in; have taken about seven bottles; am now able to resume business. No one can imagine my estimation of this remedy. — Robert Spaxioii, Hope, Ind., Mch. 1. 1893.
