You Have Waited for This. There are many people who would be glad to abandon the habit of drmkiug coffee If they could only find a substitute for it. That substitute is Grain-O, made from pure grains and a beverage in every way preferable to coffee. Graiu-0 is not a stimulant—it is something better. It is cheering, nutritious and strengthening. In other words it is a food-drink, as coffee is not. It Is acceptable to the most delicate stomach, and agrees with confirmed dyspeptics. Unlike coffee Grain-0 produces no nervous action. It never interferes with sleep. As for the flavor of Grain-O, people who use it say Hist after us>g it a week or two they like its taste better than that of coffee. Grain-0 is sold by all grocers at 15c. and 25c. per package. Try it. Cowboys’ Day in Texas. The old-fashioneu cowboy had his day at Seymour, Texas, a few days ago. Several hundred ex-cow punchers, the remnant of the men who filled the hisfory of the Southwest with tales of desperate shooting and hard riding, gathered in their picturesque ranching garb, lariat on pommel and six-shooters on hip, to attend the reunfon of the Association of Cowboys. Five hundred unbroken. broncos were brought in for the visitors to show their old-time prowess on, and the sight attracted 10,000 spectators from all over Northwestern Texas. The “old-timers” appeared in full frontier regaiia^and the opening parade was one of the most curious ever seen in the West. Il was a typical plainsman's procession, and every feature of life on the plains was represented. A barbecue dinner, served to thousands a live oak grove, followed the parade. Afterward there was a speeiahparade of 400 Comanche Indians in full tribal costume, including blankets, pipes, war clubs, etc., which, in the appreciative language of a local correspondent, was “the most successful incident of the kind ever witnessed in Texas.—New York World.

PULLMAN IS NO MORI? PALACE CAR MAGNATE DIES OF HEART FAILURE. End Comes Suddenly in the Early Morning-Started a Poor Lad at S4O a Year and at Death Was Reputed Worth $40,000,000. Career Is Closed. George M’; Pullman, president of the Pullman Palace Car Company, died at 5:30 o’clock Tuesday morning, at his home iu Chicago. Death was sudden, and is attributed to heart failure. Monday night Mr. Pullman retired at 11 o'clock, after entertaining a party of friends at his home. At that time he made no particular complaint regarding his health. I During the past month Mr. Pullman had been ailing, but the trouble was not sufficient to interfere with his business, aid j Monday he was at his office as usual. Early Tuesday morning a friend, who w|s stopping with Mr. Pullman, heard a sliglt i noise from his host's bedchamber and el- ; tered to see Mr. Pullman make his wiw I to a safe, where he fell gasping for breatl. Physicians weie summoned, but the siA | man had expired before a doctor coußFj reach his side. His very sudden dea.fr came as a shock to his relatives a|^ friends, ami as it became known througw out the city formed the chief topic of co*" versatkn in business circles. Mrs. HK ’ man was in New York at the time husband's deniisc.

He then organized the Pullman Palace Car Company ami establish!.! the plant at the town of Pitlbnan. which was a plan of his own creation, and has grown to splendid proportions ami is known the world over as a model city. At the time of his death Mr. Pullman is reputed to have been worth s4(>,<M)o.ooo. Tlie Pullman Palace Car Company is the largest railroad manufacturing interest in the world. It employs a capital of s4i I,tunUMil» and Ims aoc :s exceeding $45.HHO.miO. About the time i f the World’s Columbian exposition it had in its service) 2.23!) ears ami employed 13.555 persons, whose annual nagi s aggregated $3,331,527. being an average of stilO per capita. At present, however, both the number of employes ami their wages are lower than then. But. although Mr. Pullman xvas the moving spirit of this vast enterprise, his capacity for business was not fully satis-, lied in any single venture. -Among the important interests with which he was identified were the Eagleton iron works of New York, ami the New York Loan and Improvement Company, which he organized and which built the Metropolitan Elevated Railway on Second and Sixth avenues, lie had also been interested in the Nicaragua canal plan since its inception. At the time it was constructed, in 1884,1 the Pullman office building, where the business headquarters of the car com-i pany are maintained, xvas probably the finest business ami apartment block in’ Chicago, and it does not stand behindj many to this day. His home, a mansion .-of inwvu slow on. Prairie avenue and < Eighteenth street, is one of the finest appointed residences in Chicago. In business Mr. Pullman was prompt but never hasty. Socially, ho was courtly in manner, but his formality was not such as to make him unapproachable. In ISO" lit' marr.cd Miss Hattie A. Sanger, daughter of James T.

I How Do You Wear Your Hat? “You can generally tell a man's char--1 actor from the way he wears his hat,” a physiognomist remarked the other <iay. “Indeed, this is cne of the most . reliable guides for the amateur character reader that 1 know. jhe man who blusters. He stands with his feet apart; wears his ilothes at least a couple of sizes too large for him; and his hat stands bolt I upright on his head, firm and precise, : in away that reminds you of a general , in command. I “The person who wears his hat deep down over his eyes—on the bridge of his nose, in sact —is given to melan- . choly, and is inclined to be despondent about the future. But he is also quick i at observation, and unselfish. The hat j worn at the back of the head denotes Independence of a certain obstinate nai ture, self-esteem, purse-pride. I “Some originality is expressed in the 1 habit of wearing the headgear slightly ; to one side, though the inclination to j right or left should, not be too strongly marked. If very noticeable, you have the ‘waggish’ individual. A man with ’ a thoughtful, poetical temperament sel- * dom looks well in a hat, being always . seen at Ids best bareheadtaL; while, curiously enough, criminals of nearly all classes quite reverse 1 this order of things.”—Answers. How to Carry a Revolver. A. S. Mason was before Judge Edison | this morning charged with carrying a ' concealed weapon. According to Ma--1 son's story he was taking the weapon, a revolver, home to be cleaned. He I started with it in his hand, but, seeing Officer McLennan approaching, he thought he had better put it in his pocket, and did so. This was just what Mason should not have done, and it proved his undoing, and the officer took him in tow. Mason was very much mortified at being arrested and was anxious to right himself in the eyes of the law. “If you say so, Judge, I'll take this here gun and throw it in the lake,” he remarked to the court. “What do you think I'd better fine you to make it even?” asked the court. “Well, don't strike me too hard, Judge, that's all I've got to say," re j plied the prisoner. “Well. I’ll suspend sentence this j 1 time,” said the court. “In future, when i | you have a revolver to take home, car- ■ | ry it in your hand, wear it on your j xvatc’h chain or send it home on a I dray." 1 hiluth Herald. — Quien Kabe?

First, there was a man who kept a xo-cent lodging-house in the Bowcry. New York. He found that a Tabule taken now and then kept him from getting sick in that polluted atmosphere. Then there was a man who worked in a coal mine in Ohio, where the great distance under the hills made it impossible to get ' pure air, the air being forced to the men by great fans which would sometimes cease their motion ca account of breaks in the machinery and then the air would become very bad indeed, causing pains in the head, dizziness and fainting. This man found a Ripans Tabnletakenat such a time would pre1 serve him from the pain he had previously experienced. Another miner, well known in Scranton, Fa., suffered from the foul atmosphere he breathed for so many years in the mines, resulting there from the gases and damp. “My stomach suffered most,” said he. Finally he was induced to make trial ol Kipans Tabules, and was so much benefited that he now makes a practice of carrying a few of the magic Tabules in his pocket so a; to be able to swallow one at the first sign of approaching trouble. i The fourth case is that of a Philadelphia tailcc who had charge of the manufacturing department, and was obliged to spend hours at a time in the pressing, sponging and ironing depart men tin an overheated room where the atmosphere it very heavy and disagreeable. This resulted in giving him frequent headochcs, from which he sometimes suffq*ed. great torture. The medicines prescribed by his i physician brought no relief, and he was, be said, on the verge of despair when a friend one day a advised him to try Ripans Tabules. He did so an.d the result was that the first two Tabules wrought M with him an almost magic change. “ I escape all headaches now,” he writes, “and no matter, how f liot the room is, one Tabule does away with all suffering.
