Senator Cullom tells a good story? and not being given to practice law much himself, I suppose he can afford to do so?of a prosperous storekeeper in a small Illinois town, the name of which has escaped me, who once practiced law; but who has long since abandoned it. Being met by an old acquaintance, he was asked for all the particulars of his giving up the profession. "Didn't it agree with your health ?" "O yes," answered "Uncle Joe," as he was familiarly called by his friends. "Didn't it pay ?" "Fircf-rftte." "Meet with sufficient favor from the courts?'' "All I could ask." "Then what was it compelled you to quit it?" "Well, I'll tell you?I was too honest." A loud laugh from the bystanders aroused "Uncle Joe" into earnestness, and be repeated the strange statement, and nailed it to his shop-counter with his huge fist. But his cross questioner went on : "When did you find this out?" "In my very last case." "What was that?" "One in which I was retained to prosecute a neighbor for killing a dog." "And he was acquitted? So you lost the case, and gave up your profession discouraged ?" "No, he was convicted." "Then he was guilty ?" ".No, He was innocent. "But didn't the evidence prove his guilt ?" "Certainly it did." "Then why do you say he was innocent?" "Because I had killed the dog myself a few nights before for trespassing on my poultry, and I came to the conclusion that any business that would aid a man to convict a neighbor of his own crimes wasn't the business for me, so I gave it up." He Shut His Mouth.?Bachelors are not usually credited with much knowledge of the care of children ; but it is evident that they sometimes have original methods. A middle-aged gentleman of that state in life, went in to see his married sister, and found her trying to amuse her little boy, who was only 5 years old. Not long after he arrived, she stepped out of the room to attend to some . household matters, leaving him alone with the child. The boy eyed him dubiously for some minutes. He was a spoiled child, if there ever was one, and had no idea of making promiscuous acquaintances. The bachelor tried to make the little one laugh; but all he got for his antics was a sour look. Finally, without warning, the child burst out crying. Here was a quandary, to be sure! The man didn't dare to pick t_-_. trio me uoy up uuu auuiuo uiui. uis attempts in a verbal line were dismal failures. Wh'at should he do? Finally a thought struck him. He looked at the crying youngster, and the crying youngster looked at him. "Cry louder," said the man. The child obeyed. "Louder yet," urged the bachelor. A yell went up that would have done credit to an Indian. "Louder still," insisted the man, and the boy did his best to obey. "Louder !" fairly howled his uncle. "I won't!" snapped the infant, and he shut his mouth with a click, and was quiet for the rest of the day. Only a Shadow.?A story is told of a well-known gentleman, who sometimes imbibes too freely in ardent spirits, going home one night recently, and taking bis shadow, outlined on the front door, for a man. He waited a little in surprise, and then, raising his hat very gracefully, bade him good evening. No reply. "This is my house, I believe," he said, waving his hand. The hand of the shadow went through the same graceful curve. ttT ?UahM UVa f a ir? oir if \*f\11 1 9UUU1U 1IIVU IV ^VV uij 011) JVM will stand aside." But still the shadow remained. His wife, seeing him standing there so long, asked him why he did not come in ? "So I would, my dear, but this gentleman," pointing to the shadow, "insists upon blocking up the door." His wife quietly opened the door, remarking, "That was your shadow." "Indeed !" exclaimed the puzzled citizen. "I thought he was a mighty fine looking fellow to be so impolite," and he went in. Whenever he shows a disposition to remain out late at night, his wife has only to remind him of the shadow upon the door step, to insure a speedy return. Why He Was Silent.?A physician describes a remarkable case of a patient's confidence in his medical adviser. When I was a student in the hospital, I had a patient, an Irishman, with a broken leg. When the ph ster bandage was removed, and a lighter one put in its place, I noticed that one of the pins went in with great difliculon/1 T onnl/1 nnf iinrlorGton/1 5t Vjr, l*wv? * vvu,u "-v ... A week afterward, on removing this piD, I found it had stuck hard and fast, and I was forced to remove it with the fauceps. What was my astonishment in making an examination to find that the pin had been run through the skin twice instead of through the cloth. "Why, Pat," said I, "I didn't know that pin was sticking in you." "To be sure I did," replied Pat. "But I thought you knowed your business, so I hilt me tongue."

SOWING GRASS SEEDS IN THE FALL There is no question but that in the 'all is a good time to sow almost any ciud of grass seed on land intended iither for pasture or meadow, provided ,he conditions are favorable for the jermitialion of the seed, and a start to ;row for the plants. There is little or no economy in lowing seed unless there is sufficient noisture to the soil to induce a good ind quick germination of the seed, rhis is especially true of grass seed, is they are fine and small and need fery little covering. While most grass jlants, after they get well started, are iery hardy and will withstand considsrable cold without injury, yet at the itart they are tender and a freeze vould seriously injure, in not entirely till them. So far as the season and the condiion of the soil will admit, grass seed )f all kinds should be sown early iu ,he fall. If the seediug canuot be lone in time and under such conditions as will enable the plants to make i good start to grow before cold weath:r sets in, the better plan will be to jut off the seeding until early in the ipring. In all cases the soil should be pre>ared in good tilth before sowing the leed. A very good plan is to plow as loon after the harvest as the other farm vork will permit, and then use the disc ind smoothing harrow to prepare the loil for the seed. It will always pay to prepare the oil well before sowing the seed, as the >etter germination and more vigorous tart to grow will make it easier to se:ufe an even distribution of the seed. )ne of the principal advantages in ising a seeder in preference to sowing >y hand is that a much more even disribution of the seed is posssble. Use good seed and plenty of it. xenerally it proves poor economy to tint the seed and get a poor stand as i result. Less seed is needed when the oil is prepared in good tilth and the eediug is under favorable conditions. Sut in all cases it is better to use rathr too much seed than not enough. Why Do Mosquitoes Bite??It las been known that only the female nosquito bites. The male possesses 10 lance for inflicting a wound such as * J ?t_ mt us mate is proviaea wnn. iae pur>ose of his existence is merely to per?etuate the species, and he never nters a house unless by accident. The natural food of the female is the uices of plants, and it is not known vhy she seeks blood. The indulgence eems to be a kind of dissipation with ler, like whisky and tobacco with luman beings. Unlike the latter she lever gets full but once. Though it is .sserted that she carries poison, the act has never been proved, no venom ;lands have been discovered. Her ting consists of five extremely sharp leedles, two of which are barbed. They unite to form an awl, which laving inflicted the puncture, serves .s a tube for sucking the blood of the 'ictim. This suggestion that a pois?nous fluid is introduced into the vound for the purpose of making the ilood more liquid is mere theory.? Joston Transcript. Cure for Founder.?A recent vriter gives this remedy for lameness :aused by inflammatory fever in the oot of the horse, with the assurance hat it is a perfect cure : "Clean out the bottom of the foot horoughly?hold up the leg so as to iring the bottom of the foot upward, lolding it firmly in a horizontal posiion, and pour in, say a tablespoonful >f spirits of turpentine, if the cavity of he foot will hold that much, if not, >our in what it will hold without dan;er of running it over; touch the turlentine with a redhot iron, this will et it on fire; hold the foot firmly in (osition until all burns out. Great :are must be taken that none runs >ver on the hair of the hoof, lest the kin be burned. If all the feet are afected, burn turpentine in each one of hem. Relief will speedily follow, and he animal will be ready for service in . short time. It is affirmed that animals treated in his manner have been promptly reieved. In one case although sufferDg more than 24 hours when applied, n less than an hour afterward the anmal was fit for use and traveled some listance, all lameness disappearing. To Cure Warts on Man or Beast. rake a half-pint bottle, fill oue third vith whisky and the remainder with ;ood turpentine, shake well before ap>lying; moisten the warts four or five iraes a day, as they become sore less requeutly. When they show signs of lecay, stop the treatment, and grease vith good lard for a day or two. It is in infallible cure; sure and cheap, md causes no pain. 6ST Evaporated potatoes is the latest reserved food product of the Pacific (oast.

Few people are awart of the powers of the ear, but the bliud through constant exercise of that orgau, are able to discover objects almost as readily as a seeing person. For instance, when walking in a perfect culm, he can ascertain the nroximit\ of objects by the feeling of the atmos pbere upon his face ; it would seem al first that the echo given back, were il only from his breathing, might be sen sible to his ear ; but it has been ascertained by experiment, that a blind man with his ears stopped can tell when any large object is close to his face, even when it approaches so slowly as not to cause auy sensible current ol air. When he is walking along the street he can tell whether it is wide 01 narrow, whether the houses are high or low, if an opening which he may be passing, is a court closed up at the end, or whether it has an outlet tc another street; and he can tell by the sound of his footsteps in what lane, 01 court, or square he is. He goes alon{j boldly, seeming to see with his ears, and to have landmarks in the air. Ol course no blind man likes to go ovei a new route unattended, but after he has traversed it once he knows every point of importance to him, and could walk over it as we should sav "in the dark." &akiM0 POWDER Absolutely Pure.

Austin Bidwell started life as a clerk in Wall Street, and soon succumbed to the allurements , of the primrose way. His first criminal venture was a trip to Europe to sell stolen bonds. After a few similar enterprises in New York, he returned to Europe with a pair of shrewd confederates and engaged in a systematic campaign of swindling the principal banks of the continent. The conspirators were so successful in this that they next laid siege to the seemingly impregnable vaults of the Bank of En gland, and actually succeeded in securing over ^1,000,000 by artfully executed forgeries. But retribution came at last, and this brilliant coup cost Mr. Bidwell 20 years in English prisons.' The story of his experiences is " told in "From Wall Street to Newgate. It is replete with Stirring Incidents, Marvelous Adventures, Hairbreadth Escapes and remarkable experiences, such as few men have met with. They are narrated in an easy, picturesque style, evincing sin1 cerity and candor, with no att-pinnt at sensation or exae^era oo tion. The truth told is stranger than ! fiction, and history may be challenged to produce another life i into which has come so many j varied and bewildering events, or to disclose another character, : trained in a religious home, having culture and an unusual busi, ness talent, whose deflections from the path of honor has stirred to l its very depth the entire civilized world. The story is copyrighted, nice\ ly illustrated, and will appear in The Enquirer shortly. Sub, scribe now. We, the undersigned, having read the new Bidwell hook, "From Wall Street to Newgate," believe it will benefit every one to read this marvelous history of i human experience. Aside from its dramatic interest, there ate great moral lessons involved of especial interest to young men and employees in positions of "trust. We, therefore, recommend this story as vulniiltlnaiifiinuitmn fnr ftntriA and otlire. J. Pierrcpont Morgan, L. J. Pago, John W. Mackay, Robert A. Pinkerton, \V. E. Tetlt, Pliilip \V. Moen, Moses P.

ARE YOU A THINKING MAN ? OR do you let somebody else do your studying. If you. are a thinker we want you to consider a few points which we will submit. Here they are: Can you atl'ord to go on from day to day, week to week and year to year without throwing around your wife, children or those dependent upon you, that iron clad protection which is absolutely guaranteed to them by a policy in a first-class life insurance company? If yon decide that you cannot ignore life insurance, are you using the same business sense that characterizes your daily business transactions if you place your insurance with a company that charges you twice as much for your protection as it is worth, or as another company equally as reliable will furnish it for? The Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association, of New York, has been in business about 15 years and ' during that time has paid more than $22,000,000 to the beneficiaries of deceased policy holders. It has in force today as much insurance as the THREE STONGESTold line companies had when they had reached the same age, and something like $50,000,000 to spare. It has more assets, as compared to liabilities than any company in the world. Tt has oaid evorv honest death claim * that has been presented, in full, and has never taken advantage of a technicality, as other companies often do. Now for a practical illustration: Say you are 43 years of age: A $5,000 life policy (pay as long as you live) in the Insurance Company, of New York, will cost you 8180.50 annually or 83,610 in twenty years, if you live that long, in cold cask, not counting interest. The same size policy in the MUTUAL RESERVE, will cost you 886.10 annually, or 81,722 in twenty years. We will be pleased to explain our * system to you and also to convince you that any derogatory statement made by any agent of any old line company doing business in ;this section about the Mutual Reserve, is absolutely false and is inspired by his desire to sell you something you will never derive any benefit from. It will certainly do you no harm to learn all you can about our company and its plan before placing your insurance. SAM M. it L. GEO.
