His Trademark.
A certain judge who is blessed with
a tremendous head of hair, -which is
generally in a state of wild disorder,
was questioning a youthful witness to
make sure that he comprehended the
character and importance of the oath he
was about to take. "Boy," he said,
with his severest and most magisterial
manner, "do you feel sure you could
identify me after sis months? Now,
be careful. Think before yon speak."
"Well, yonr honor," replied'the boy
after a prolonged survey of the judge's
portly figure and rugged features, "I
ain't sure, bnt I think I could if yon
wasn't to comb your hair."—San Francisco Argonaut.
England's Poisonous Snakes.
There are 1,500 different species of
spates known to naturalists, and only
four kinds of snake or snakelike creatures are to be found in England. Of
these but one isjpoisonous, and it is very
rare: The ordinary snakes to be fonnd
in countries inhabited by civilized man
are harmless, and but few of the poisonous snakes are deadly in their poison,
even though the effects may be serious.
A study of snakes and their ^ays would
do much to do away with the educated
fear of the reptiles that most people
have.—Liverpool Mercury.
Avoiding Strikes.
One fact is apparent in the midst of
•ill labor troubles. .Wherever a friendly
spirit exists between employers and employed there are apt to be few strikes.
For three generations the Cramp shipyard has been in operation at Philadelphia. In all that time there have been
only two strikes in the works, and these
two were speedily and satisfactorily adjusted. Many of the carpenters and workmen in the shipyard have been in the
employ of the Cramps from the timo
that they were old enough to drive »
nail, and they are now gray headed. In
some instances grandfather, father and
son have lived their laboring life in the
shops. Most of the men are of American birth and ancestry. The disturbing
element in workshops came to America
with the foreigner. Low priced labor
and strikes go together.
Between the Cramps and their employees there exists the old fashioned
spirit'of community of interest between
master and man. The prosperity of the
one means the prosperity of the other,
and the men understand this. When
the Minneapolis spurted out from th*
Cramps' shipyard and showed herself
the fastest cruiser, the men went wild
■With delight.
S. O. Nelson, the metal artificer,
many years ago drew his workmen out
of St. Lonis and planted his factories in
A convenient suburb. He established
l(he profit sharing system with his men.
Today he is rich. His men own their
homes, their old age is provided for,
and the clubhouse, libraries, parks and
gardens give them more than the ad-
Tantages they wonld have in a city.
There has never been a strike.
The same story over again might ba
written of Alfred Dolge, the great felt-
maker of Dolgeville. The profit sharing system is in vogue. A model settlement of workingmen's homes is clustered ahout the factories. There are no
strikes.
Near Bloomington, Ills., are the coal
mines operated by a company of which
Vice President Stevenson is president.
In the midst of the labor convulsions
this summer these mines have suffered
somewhat, but less than any others
in- the state, although they are among
the largest. At the beginning of the
coal strike the men at Bloomington
went out on sympathetic strike. But
there was an arbitration meeting, at
which the men agreed to go back to work
at their old wages in return for certain
concessions made them. The dispatch
announcing the adjustment of the difference says, "There has always existed a
kindly feeling between employer and
employee here."
Good Doctrine.
The Detroit Tribune gives some excellent advice to its readers in the following paragraph. There are peopla
who believe the cause of morality and
.religion is subserved by a solemn demeanor, just as there are doctors who
believe they get credit for wisdom by
looking like an owl and shaking their
heads. Both are dead wrong.
We have nothing but commendation
for The Tribune's recommendations.
We have only a suggestion to add to one
of its shining bright points. Learn to
tell a good story by all means, but don't
tell the same story more than 60 times.
That is the place to draw the line.
The Tribune says:
Learn to laugh. A eood laugh is better than
medicine. Learn how to tell a story. A well
told story is as welcome as a sunbeam in a
sickroom. Learn to keep your own troubles
to yourself.   The world is too busy to care for
four ills and sorrows. Learn to stop croaking,
f you cannot see any good in the world, keep
the bad to yourself. Learn to hide your pains
and aches under a pleasantf smile. 2*To one
cares to hear whether you havo the earache,
headache or rheumatism. Don't cry. Tears
do well enough in novels, but they are out of
place in real life. Learn to meet yonr friends
with a smile. The good humored man or woman is always welcome, but tho dyspeptic or
hypochondriac is not wanted anywhere and ia
a nuisance as well.
It has heen observed that rich men
who never marry and have nobody to
take care of but themselves and nothing
to do but indulge their own fancy grow
first very whimsy and hard to please,
next eccentric and unpleasant to have
around, and, last of all, crazy. The
moral is plain.    "
How could the Philadelphia Ledger
he guilty of the following—at its age
too? "The term 'idiot' is derived from
the 'idiota,' by which name the ancient
Greeks designated the class that could
not vote.   It's quite different now."
The tenris of 14 Democrats and 16
Republicans in the United States senate
expire next March.
The United States still has, in spite
of the hard times, 3,767 national banks.
Horse racing and baseball do not suffer during the hard times anyhow.
A prominent alderman of Lansing has
been arrested on a charge of bribery in
connection with a design for tho new
city hall. What are we coming to when
a city father can be arrested for a little
thing like that?

and has given strength to many. We
know this "to be true from pur experience of twentyfive years and we are
ready to furnish abundant proof.
It is worth your while to examine
the evidence, which you can do by
writing to us. We will send you free,
of charge, a book of 200 pages with
numerous testimonials and records of
surprising cures of asthma, bronchitis,
catarrh, consumption, rheumatism,
nervous prostration, neuralgia, and
other forms of  disease  and debility.
Home treatment is sent out by express to be used at home. Office treatment is administered here. The effect
is the same.   Consultation free.
Our success has given rise to many
imitations. Avoid dissapointment and
loss of money, as there is but one genuine Compound Oxygen, by sending to

Speer's Port Grape Wine
FOUR YEARS OLD.
HTHIS CELEBRATED WINE is the pure juice
•*■ of the dead ripe Oporto Grape, raised in
Speer's vineyards, and left Oiangiug until they
shrink and become partly raisined before gathering.  Its invaluable
Tonic and Strengthing Properties
are unsurpassed by any other Wine. Being produced under Mr. Speer's personal supervision.its
purity and genuineness are guaranteed by the
principal Hospitals and Boards of Health who
have examined it. The youngest child and the
weakest invalids use it to advantage. It is particularly beneficial to the aged and debilitated,
and suited to the various ailiments that affect
the weaker sex.
It is in every respect A WISE TO BE BELIED
OX.
Speer's Unfermented Grape Juice
Is thc juice of the Oporto Grape, preserved in
its natural fresh, sweet state as it runs from the
press, by fumigation and electricity, thereby
destroying the excitPi* of fermentation. It is
perfectly pure, free from spirits and will keep in
any climate.
Speer's (Socialiate) Claret
Is held in high estimation for its richness as a
Dry Table 'Wine, especially suited for dinner use.
Speer's P. J. Sherry
Is a wine of Superior Character and partakes
of the rich qualities of the grape from which it
is made.
Speer's Olimas Brandy, Vin. 1876,
IS A PURE distillation of the grape and stands
unrivalled in this country for medical purposes.
It has a peculiar flavor similar to that of the
grape from which it is distilled, and equal in every respectrto lhe high price Old CogDae Brandy
of France.f rom which it cannot be distinguished.
See that the signature of "ALFRED SPEER,
Passaic. K. J.," is over the cork of each bottle.
