McLtmrin has been lucky in business, one of them goiug so far as to say he "he received his reward for betraying his party." political prejudice ought to let a man alone when ho retires to pri vate life, atula liberal mind ought to*rejoice that even a political enemy hus got a good place instead of going lo grasa-Newberry Ob server.

Saw No Reason For Swearing. General Grant waa asked why e never swore. He replied: Well, when a boy I had an /ersion to swearing. It seemed aeless, an unnecessary habit, id besides I saw that swearing sually aroused a man's anger, early had a desire to have hnp?ete command of myself. I Dticed when a man got angry is opponent alw ys got the 3tter of him. On that account so I determined to refrain from vearing.

The magic lantern, Hke porcelain, gunpowder and printing, may have been an invention of tbe Chinese. For more than twenty centurlos it bna beon a staple amusement In the Celestial empire and has been developed into ninny forms unknown to the occident. Thc Middle Kingdom, "which has been well termed Topsy Turvy Land, uses the magic lantern in just thc opposite manner from what we do, having the light and picture behind the screen, thc same ns lu our parlor amusement of shadowgraphs. The commonest form of the magic lantorn in the extreme ori ent ls a large box supported on a tri pod or four legged table. The box is about 4 feet wide by 2 high, and its front ls made of grouud glasB, oiled silk or oiled white pnper. Over the box 1B a light framework of bamboo and cloth, which reaches to the ground and conceals tho operator from the audience, but leaves the glass ex posed to view. A powerful lamp in front of a concave reflector throwH a strong light upon the glass or screen, ns thc case may be. Thc top of the box and the Bides are half open to permit thc introduction of numil figures. This nrraugemont gives four distinct clnssos of instruments.

This seams ridiculous to Americans, but in a land whore an ablcbodied man can bo hired for 0 cents a day the owner of a successful magic lantern is looked upon OB a very well to do individual. The little plays wbich_ are written about tho magic figures arc as c^f?ven tlonnl as our own immortal Punch and Judy. The "wicked tiger" depicts the career of a diasolute animal who from tilling pigs, dogs and buffaloes finally ?ats a beautiful malden and is slain by i Mongolian chief in full armor on tiorseback. "The wicked wife" forms i compact with thc devil, squanders jor husband's substance in riotous liv ing and, in tho last scene, hangs ker jr'f in a blaze of red fire, while the ?vii one expresses wild Joy in extraor llnary oriental gesticulations. "The ;ruel magician," "the grateful dragon," 'the fairy foxes" and other bits of ?aBtern folklore afford brief sketches, ivhlch arc as familiar as. household words.-New York Tost. To Give thc Suck. Two noblemen in the reign of Maxi nillnn ll.-1D04-15??-one a German, :he other a Spaniard, who had each .ondaroo, a great service to the em peror, asked the limul of his daughter n marriage. Maximilian said that as do esteemed them both alike lt was lm ?OBBlble to choose between them, and .kerefore their own prowess must de cide it; but, being unwilling to riBk tho oss of either by engaging them in Icadly combat, he ordored a large sack 0 be brought and declared that ho who ihould put his rival into it should have ils fair Ilelenn. And this whimsical ?oinbnt was actually performed in the iresenco of the imperial court nud asted au hour. The unhappy Spanish loblemnn was first overcome, and tho icrman succeeded In enveloping him n the Bnck, took him upon his bnck md laid him at thc emperor's feet. This comical combat ls suki to be thc righi of Gie phrnse "give him the nek," so common lu thc literature of ourting. One l'Jmno ot the Nile.

For putting in prime condition any horse or mule the best of all remedies is Ashcraft's Condition Powders. These Powders are won derfully effective because they cre ate appetite, the digestion is made perfect, worms and parasites de stroyed, and the system cleansed of all gross humors. The Pow ders fatten but never bloat. Ashcraft's Condition Powders are wrapped in doses. In fact, in their preparation the same care is used that a druggist would exer cise in the filling of a physician's prescription. High grade and real merit is thc first consideration. Ashcraft's Powders consist of small doses, prepared from the purest and highly concentrated in gredients, that have been found beneficial to horses and mules. Ashcraft's Condition Powders always high grade-are not to be classed with the many bulky, good for-everything powders now on the market. Ask for Ashcraft's, the kind put up in doses, and good for horses and mules only.
