Nothing that I ate seemed to set well on my stomach. I ain't been much of a hand for doctoring, but I tried different kinds of herb teas, but they didn't seem to do much good Catnip was the best, but I got kind of set aga'.nst that. One day :i lady asked me if I would try some of her medicine Itipans Tabules she called them. They seemed harmless like, and Kichard he took some too, ami whatever they fire made of I don't know, but they beat all the herb teas, and we ain't felt so well in years. We work on the farm all day now and eat our three regular meals, and all kinds of victuals seems to agree with us.

ALONE IN LIFE.

Borne of Ua Must lie Content to Bo; Helpers. 1 A visitor to a woolon mill in a manufacturing town was impressed by the order with which the prent bodies of men and women were drilled to perform their separate taks. There was j no jarring or confusion. Each class fulfilled its especial duty. The owner of the mill named each division of workers to his guest, and the wages paid to them. Presently the stranger saw a woman standing apart, idle but watchful. A boy at the bobbins held up his hand. She hurried to him. and took Ids place while he went out. When he came luick she stood again, watching. A weaver at a hand loom tangled his thread. She patiently unravelled the knot. She kept tally for a clerk who, was counting packages of finished work. She tied a broken thread here, or picked out a Haw there. "What is that woman V' asked th5 visitor. "Oh, only a supply," was the enrol ess . . . ra ms wer. Mie is general neiner. me 00111s must not stop. She is ready to lelp any worker who needs help." "But she has nothing to show as her work on Saturday night?" "No. But she- is paid her wages. She earns them," said the owner of the mill, significantly. The stranger, when lie had ieft the great mill, thought that the world in these later days was not unlike such an establishment. A great deal of good work is done in it, and done usually by drilled workers, who move together. Every profession and trade has its organization; there are countless busy guilds and clubs, artistic, charitable and religious. But hero and there is a lonely wom an, who has not even r.imily tics. She is an Invalid, or poor and single. Possibly she is the grandmother, whoso companions have died aud left her stranded In a young, gay world. Or sho Is the maiden aunt, who is askel to make long visits in the houses of Tier kinsfolk, and who nurses, or cooks, or sews for them without wages, and sometimes without thanks. Or sho is the elder sister, who still feels herself young, but who Is left at home when picnics or parties are given. These women will never, perhaps, be long to any large doss of workers. They always will be "supplies." They aro ordered to give a helpful touch here, or a word there, that the looms may not stop. They will have nothing, per haps, to show as their own work at the rnd. But they will have earned their wages, and will be paid them by Him Who "came not to be ministered unto, hut to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many." Youth's Companion. .n IMitor'N Lite. One of the beauties and charms of an editor's life is in his dead-heading it on nil occasions. No one who has ever tasted of tho sweets of that bliss can bi'gin to take in its glory and Its happiness. He does $200 worth of advertising for a railroad, gets a "pass" for a year; rides J?'"i worth; and then he is looked upon as dead head or half-blown deadbeat, lie "puffs" a concert troupe $10 AVorth and gets $1 in "compliinentaries," and Is thus passed "free." If tlu; hall is crowded lie is In-grudged the room he occupies, for if Iiis coniplimeutaries were paying tickets the troupe would bo so much in pockK. He blows ami puffs a church festival free, to any desired extent, and does the poster printing at half rates, and ran-ely gets a "thank you" for it. It goes as part of his duty as an editor, lie does moro work gratuitously for the town and community than all the rest of the population put together, and gets cursed for it all, while in many instances a man who donates a few dollars to a Fourth of July, baseball club, or a church, is gratefully remembered. Oh, It is a sweet thing to be an editor; ho passes "free," you know. Texas Siftin gs. No More IUencFj,c(l Oysters. There has been no recurrence this season of the fad for white oysters Avhich prevailed last fall and Avinter in Xcav York City. The bivalves, bleached to a silvery whiteness, presented a very pleasing picture, but it leaked out that in order to produce this effect the oysters AAere throAvn Into fresh Avater, Avhere they sickened and died. It Avas also said that a weak solution of sulphuric acid accelerated the bleaching process. Fulton market Avholesalers, jealous of the good name of New York oysters, set themselves against the bleaching process and declared that such oysters should be classed as diseased iuid should be .n fiscal od Avherever found by the officers of the health department.

peculiar Ground Advanced to Sccnre a Divorce. "Anon" sends tte following story to the Republican accompanied by a sworn statement to the effect that it is a true narrative. Tho characters are, of course, unknown to us, aud the moral ditto, the story being presented for the light it throws upon a queer phase of modern life that is not unknown in this city. We proceed Avith tho manuscript of "Anon:" She Avas about forty-five years old, Avtll dressed, had black hair, rather thin and tinged Avith gray, and eyes in Avhich gleamed tlu tires of a determination not easily balked. Sho Avalked into t lit otiice vi a well-known law linn In Court Square Theater Building and requested a private audience Avith Mr. C. Having obtained it and satisfied herself that the l:uv students were not listening at the keyhole, she said slowly, solemnly and impressively: "I want a divorce!" "What for? I supposed you had one of the bf st of husbands," said Mr. C. "I s'pose that's what everybody thinks, but if they knoAv Avhat 1 have suffered for many years, they'll wonder I hadn't scalded him long ago. I ought to, but for the sake of the young ones 1'a'o lorne it and said nothing, l'vo told him, though, what he might depend on, and now the time's come. I won't stand it. young ones or no young ones. I'll have a divorce, and if the neighbors Avant to blab themselves hoarse about it they can, for I won't stand it another day." "But what's the matter? Doesn't your husband provide for you? Doesn't ho treat you kindly? " pursued Mr. C. "We got victuals enough, and I don't knoAV but he's as true and kind as men in general, and he's never knocked any of us doAvn. I Avish he had; then I'd get him Into jail and know where ho Avas nights," retorted the Avoman. 'Then Avhat is your complaint against him?" "Well, If you must knoAv, he's one of them platigey j'lners." "A Avhat?" "A j'lnor one of them pesky fools that's always j'lning something. There can't nothing come along that's dark and sly and hidden but lie j'ines it. If anybody should get up a society to burn my house down, he'd j'ine it just as soou as he could get in; and if lie had to pay for it, he'd go all the suddener." Springlield Republican. Didn't Do a Thing to Hutch. One of the biggest corners Hutch en git.ered, In the fall of isso, Avas partly the result of an accident. He was on tho board, trading in his rough and ready style, and soon found he was get ling Avell loaded with Avheat. On leaving the room he heard his name mentioned and caught a sentence to this effect: "And then Ave won't do a thing to nutch." There were two men iu the conversation and Hutch noted them and passed on. Hutch then started in to buy all tho wheat in sight. He explained to a friend afterward ho Avas actuated simply by a desire to "force those two men to make good." He kept quietly at Avork until live days before the end of the month. Then he pushed Avheat up 5 cents. The next daj' he jumped It 2o cents. Most of the crowd who Avere in the scheme to "do" him settled at this llgure. The next day there was no material change, but the fourth day there Avas another boost, and Avheat reached 1C1. Hutch sent word to those of the opposition Avho Avere left that they could settle at that price, but the tAvo he Avas after Avere left to be the victims of the final stab. Avheu Avheat reached the J?2 mark. Thus history was made because two men chanced to think and say that they could run down B. P. Hutcliin-son.-('hic:v;o Times-Herald. . A Lunch Astray.
