"She's jur.t the kind of f girl 1 thould love for a sister, but o. course 1 don't expect you to appre elate her at all. You haven't pot i bit of sense about girls. I'm sure I don't know what would become oi you if 1 didn't waich over you a lit tie." "Is she blonde or brunette?" ask ed Bl!!y w:th lazy interest, for h^. anr". his sister had little similarity* oi taste when it came to g!rls. "She's the nearest 1 ttie b?onde with the most appealing face, ant big. baby olue --yes. There's tub about her, too; she has a lot o*' go;;c common seuse, and makes rienrl) all her own shirtwaists and sh sings beautifully, and her lathe. owns a steam yacht" "That's plenty about her, thane you. i have rea.: ail about thsr< kind !n books.. You forget to men tion that she is matrimonially :r. cllned and is liable to try to capture v. p.orbing perscn like myself. "Why, she wouldn't consider yo; or a moment, if you wi'l only b? alee to her while she is v:s;tin? mt it won't be at all necessary tor you to do anything mere. Dcn't nfrs'.cct ner though, tor 1 want her to like you.'" Next .ay the little blonde arrived with much iuss and feathers. "Oh, she'l. pass in a crowd." was billy's verdict a little later when his sister anxiously sought his opinion or her friend. "Bleace don't be gruff. Billy. Be nice to her, for she won't be herf ong," Billy gave the desired Dromlse with an air of martyrdom. He kepr his word beautifully during the ne:n en days and donned his oress lothel six nights out of the sever without a word of complaint. His sis ler telt. conscience stricken at tlmet Itnowmg how wretchedly bored Blllj must be. The little blonde visitor accepted Billy's aevotlou together with thai of all the other men who crossed he> path, as a matter of co,urse. Billy's sister reit a little piqued at sucl indifference, because If she did si> it herse f. there were few girls who had as good looking a brother a* Billy was. It was at the ghost party that thr visitor really forfeited the good will cf Billy's sister. It wasn't just be cause she committed the unpardon able error of fainting at the appear ance or the sulphu^ ghost, for Billy's ister really had been solicitous, when Billy carried the bloude g ri upstairs and hovered around until fee opened her eyes just as he was bending over her. It was what the little bionde.glrl did when she saw tillly there, j Two little hands had caught Billy's face Impetuously be tween tnem and then had qulcklj dropped when Billy's sister ejacu lated "Uh!" "1 don't think Ruth need have up set the whole party the way she diu last night," comp a:ned Billy's sister to Billy the next day. "She is so mg home to-morrow and I'll really reel relieved, for she is ?o bald to entertain." Poor little g-'rl!" said Billy med itatively. "When'11 she be bacfe f.om the hair drcs:-.er's? Slie't. been goae an hour and forty-live minutes." She may stay there a'l day for all 1 care," remarked Billy's sisrer indlfferently. "I suppose you :r, gn* take her a little ride in the maclilm when she conies In. for we o.igiit U be nice to her, even though we an o f.rea cf her. We never will nav ler lo visit us again anyhow." "1 hope Billy doesn't com prom s ? himself wHh her," said Billy's sis ter to her mother a little later, li ste waved her hand at the coupi< departing In tl'e machine. "Why. you were so fond of I::-: and so anxious he should fall in 'o.'? with her," said her mother v..t. : puzzled expression. "1 think she it sweet."

When the little blond girl and Billy returned that night iiis sis.er was waiting up :er them and met them with a worried frown.

The Judge Uses Forcible Language. Judge W. B. Simmons of Flncas tle, Va., told the reporter that L. & M. Paint was usuea on his residence in 1882, and held its color well for 21 years; he furthermore said that S years ago he was Induced to use another paint and is sorry he did. because the other paint.didn't make good. The Judge will now always use L. & M. because he knows if any de fect exists in L. & M. Paint, the house will be repainted for nothing The L. &. M. Zinc hardens the L. & M.

Hydrick has opened up a suburb which he very appropriately has named Fairview. It is located in the North-eastera portion of the city, as shown in cut in ad. in another column. The lots are about 5-8 miles from the Court House, and about 10 minutes walk to the business center. They are high, overlooking the city and beautifully situated in a first class section.

Mr. John White, of 28 Highland avenue, Houlton, Maine, says: "Have been troubled with a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many advertised remedies, but the cough continued until I bought a 50c bottle of Dr. Kings New Dis covery; before that was half gone, the cough was all gone. This winter the same happy result has followed; a few doses once more banished the I annual cough. I am now convinced that Dr. King's Now Discovery is the best of all cough and lung reme dies."

Congress St., Chicago, tells of a way to be come strong: He says: "My moth er, who is old and was very feeble, is deriving so much benefit from Electric Bitters, that I feel it's my duty to tell those who need a tonic and strengthening medicine about it.

Dil you ever covet the power of the magician? Did you ever go to tne theatre, see him snatch coins out of the air and make a plant grow out of the stage l!oor and then go home and wish you could do some of the stunts. Of course yoa have, if you still want to learn, here's your chance. On the q. t., a reporter for The At lanta Journal has got the ,nside dope on these tricks from one of the big rest magicians in the country. He draws $1,000 a week. Most magicians start by learning parlor tricks" to work on their friends. Here are a few that any ooy can perform: This one is called the "dissolving penny." Go to some glazier and have him. cut out a circular piece of glrlss exactly the size of a penny rlide this glass penny up your sleeve. Mil a tumbler full of water and ask Tor the loan of a handkerchief and r. penny. Take the handkerchief, shake it in the air. This action helps you bring the glass out of your sleeve into your hand. Allow the handker chief to cover your hand so as to keep the glass penny hidden. Then pretend to ehove the real penny Up under the handkerchief. Instead you drop it down your sleeve and push the glass one up. Let some one hold the handkerchief with this In it while you push the tumbler of water under the loose ends of the handkerchief. Tell the person to 'et go the penny and the glass falls Into the tumbler. Make a few passes over the tum oler, let the spectators see the pen ny has- been dissolved. Then on your v'ay back to the table let the t>enny In your sleeve slip into your ??and and pretend to take It from :he tumbler. Try the "fire-proof" handkerchief :rlck. Eorrow a handkerchief and fit it Mghtly over a brass or copper ball. An oid brass doorknob will do for 'he ball. With the tongs pick a red hot coal from the grate and place it on the top of the ball. The coal will burn but the handkerchief won't. The reason is that orass is a better conductor of heat than the handker chief. The heat passes directly to ".he metal. Better try this trick with an old handkerchief until you learn to do It well. Always talk and tell funny stories during your tricks so as to take the afention of the spectators off your hands. Another good trick is done with an empty egg shell. Rip out the bottom of the pocket in your coat. Drop the egg shell into the pocket so that It goes on the floor, lean against the table while talking and smash the egg shell. The audience will hoar It and t.iink you have brok. een the ecg In your pocket. Then turn tne pocket wrong side out and show them that there is nothing there at all. You can have still more fun with this trick by dropping four or five empty egg shells in the pocket. Take off the coat and sr.iash the eggs with a hammer. All you have to do then Is to t irn the pocket wrong side out and show the spectators that it is perfectly empty and free from crush ed eggs. Childhood's Imagination. -Earl.- mental- processes easily par take of the fanciful. It is for this reason that many children lie. They cannot differentiate truth and false hood. They must learn by experi ence the difference between reality and dream Impressions. There is a familiar t'.o-y about a woman who was seeking to teach her little girl the value of truth. The girl had been tol I the story of Annanias and Sapphira. "Don't you know what happened to them?" askcL the in structor. "Vis." replied the child. "They fell dead, and I saw tlu-in par ried into the corner drug store." Yet there was nothing wicked in thii younsster, nor hopeless in her o-it ioo'i. SUM her imagination could not he said to need stimulating. Raining Flakes of Salt. A little boy from the far South visiting Chicago. <>n seeing the first, snowstorm, exclaimed, "U, mamma.
