SPOILED THE SCENE.

When Kimball Pointed the Way to Hit Own Future Career. As a delineator of the traditional Yankee character Mathias Currier Kimball, more widely known as Yankee Olunn, lon; stood without a rival. Away back in the early forties, when he was a mere lad, a little incident with Junius Brutus Booth, the elder, started blm la his career. Kimball was ouly seventeen years old at the time and was at work as an usher In the Lowell museum. Booth, who was then in the zenith of his power and fame, was billed there for three nights. The play was "Richard III." Kimball had thoroughly Btudied the play and was considered a young man of promising dramatic ability. On the opening night the actor who took the part of Ixrd Norfolk failed to show tip. Booth was In despair. At last some one suggested that yourg Kimball knew the lines of that part, and ho was cast for It by Booth. Of the event Kimball himself said: "When I went on the stage, I was liadly rattled. Booth was Imperious and stern, which only complicated matters. However, I got along all right until we came to the battle of Bosworth Field. In my hurry I had taken the wrong place on the stage, when Booth hissed out In a whisper, 'Get Into your place.' Then wheeling round he pronounced these words in thrilling tones: 'What thlnkest thou now, noble Norfolk?' 'That we shall conquer, my lord, was my reply, 'but on my tent this morning early was this paper found.' Booth was marking out the plan of battle on the sand. When I had finished the lines, he drew his sword and with terrific force truck the paper from my hands, saying, 'A weak Invention of the enemy!' "I was thoroughly frightened at his fearful expression and dodged back, nearly falling to the floor. Booth then repeated the words: " 'What thlnkest thou, Norfolk, if the pardon wa offered?' "By this tune I was completely rattled and forgot my lines. Booth stood glaring at me like a tiger. The audience were holding their breath for the next turn of affairs. Suddenly I realised that something must be done. My nerve returned, and I think it must have been the devil that prompted me to balance uiyself on one foot and drawl out with Yankee twang: " 'Well, I don't know, Mr. Booth. It may work!' "Instantly the whole house was in an uproar. As ahout after shout of laugh- ' ?r went up the black cloud on Booth's brow relaxed, and, wheeling on his heel, he left the stage, shaking his Ides with merriment After the play waa over he came to me and, placing bis hand on my shoulder, said in fatherly tones, 'Young man, you never played tragedy before, did . ou? Without waiting for a reply he continued: Take my advice and never attempt it gain. Yon are a natural comedian. Take a Yankee character and become Identified with It, and fame and fortune will be yours.' And I followed his advice." THE DUST IN THE AIR. Without It the Heat of the Sun Would Be Unbearable. The usefulness of dust Is proclaimed by science despite all the housewives of all the ages. Dust is part of the machinery that produces cloud and rain. It ia also a protection from the sun. Without it the sun's rays would be unbearable. The reason that sunburn H more easily acquired on the mountains than In the lowlands Is said to be probably because of the comparatively dustless air of the mountainous regions. A dustless atmosphere during rain would mean a much greater degree of discomfort than rain ever brings. Trees and buildings would be dripping with moisture, our clothing and the exposed parts of our bodies would be constantly wet, umbrellas would be classed as useless curios, and Instead of trying to conquer the dust in the house we should have to face a much greater enemy In wet floors and dripping walls. In every drop of rain and In every particle of cloud there is a particle of dust. A sample of air may be taken anywhere and the number of Its dust particles accurately determined. Dust, too, produces the glorious sunset effects in the evening sky, thus causing the faint obscurity we call twilight Twilight is always a reflected glory The light comes from the sun. which has iu the meanwhile sunk below the horizon. The reflector is an upper layer of dust Were the air perfectly dustless there would be no twilight Darkness would immediately follow the sunset Exchange. MASONIC CALENDAR.

When the Hoot Juice people were in Richmond hundreds of people flocked to A. G. Ijikens drug store to see them and get sonic of the great remedy, and after they left t he great sale, of the remedy continued because of the many remarkable, cures it made. Many names of people living in this locality who were cured by taking a few bottles of Root Juice were published in this paper. The remedy is such a health-promoting agent that it creates great excitement in every city in which It is introduced. That whole country seems to be aroused over the scores of cures the Juice is making at that point. Mr. Albert Tlmlick, of Cantrell, 111., wrote and said: "For a number of years I suffered with a severe stomach troublo and tried many kinds of medicine, but none did me any good. I was almost dead when I started on my first bottle of Root Juice, but as soon as I took three or four doses I began to feci better. Four bottles of the Juice made a complete cure of my troubles. I now have a good appetite and can eat anything I want. Before I took Root Juice I could not digest the lightest food. It would sour on my stomach and would bloat fearfully. I digest everything I eat now. It has certainly worked wonders for me." Root Juice Is a great healing tonic to the stomach, bowels, liver and kidneys. It is sold for $1 a bottle. Three bottles for $2.50 at A. G. Luken's drug store. CHOKED TO DEATH. Wabash, Ind., April 3. William Larrew died here within 10 minutes after trying to swallow a chicken bone that choked him. Mrs. C.

His Attack on Goodwine Aided the Latter's Cause.

Mr. Branch said that he considered it proper when "a fellow is skinned" that he confess it, and he did not wish to delay the ; proceedings by finishing the ballot, for j it appeai-ed that Mr. Goodwine had the j nomination. In accepting the nomination Senator : Goodwine feelingly thanked those who had supported him. "I have not suf ficient command of .language," said Mr. Goodwine," to express my thanks for this honor which you have conferred upon nte this afternoon. I want to compliment Mr. Branch for the fight he has made. It has been a clean one and in every way worthy of him." MARION COUNTY AIDS PEET2. State Statistician Candidate Nominat ed on Second Ballot.
