Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Stays|are Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
and an amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence.
2. All stay wires are made as heavy as intermediate line wires. A
fence, like a chain, is only as strong as the lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully.
3. No wraps to get loose, to hold moisture and cause rust.
1.   No projections to injure stock or tear wool from sheep.
* 5.*   Stronger at the joints than any other fence.     Welded together with
electricity.
6.   Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints.
Guaranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
Guaranteed that stays will not separate from joints.
Guaranteed all right in every particular.
a de by the most modern process and on the latest improyed machinery.
.11.      ost of the weak points in other fences aro on account of the way
be stays are fastened,
Our stays are amalgamatdd with the strands by means of electricity aud
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold, over the strength of a
fence where thp stays are wrapped Qf clamped on the strands.
You may pay more money for other fences but you cannot get as good a
feuoe as "Pittsburgh Perfect."

Happenings of Interest Gathered for the
"Benefit of Oar "Reader*.
To Join The "Following."
This week while the hand organ and
the monkey were parading the streets,,
little Fritz TTierdlinger was seized
with the idea to join the "followins;."
A friend telephoned to his mother,
where she- had seen the lad and a
general search began. Telephone
lines got* busy, bicycles chased after
Fritz and the sound of the organ, a
carriage was hired and a policeman
Summoned, and when these came together to advise, Fritz was seen curving a Corner. His fat hands were im
itating the performances of the monkey. "Havin' good time! havin"' good

A Little Curiosity.
Major Brown, the father of Harrison O. Brown of Monroe street, recently made his son a visit from the
Philippines, where he is major in the
United States army. He brought with
him a rich gift of five hundred cigarettes, a box of oigars and live kimonos.
After exams, when the major had returned, Mr. Brown Jr. entertained his
friends. Five extra cigars excited
some suspicion and one of the friends
who dared it, smoked fifty minutes on
one, with the cigar but half consumed.

Essentials of a Great Man.
You can not substitute any epithet
for great, when you are talking of
great men. Greatness is not general
dexterity carried to any extent; nor
proficiency in any one subject of human endeavor. There are "great astronomers, great scholars, great -painters, even great poets, who are very
far from great men. Greatness can
do without success, and with it. William is greater in his retreats than
JYferlborough in his victories. Oa. th«
other hand, the uniformity of Caesar's
success does not dull his greatness.
Greatness is not in the circumstances,
hut in the man.—Arthur Helps.
Poor Bobbyl
"Mr son," said Bobby's father, "you
shouW. always remember and emulate
the "busy bee."
Ten minutes later Bobby was caught
in the neighbor's apple tree gathering
blossSms. After being peppered with
salt by the irate neighbor he was
taken down behind the barn and
soundly thrashed.
"That's what you get for emulating
the busy bee," he sobbed. "Next time
I am going to emulate the lazy toad
and sit in the grass and do nothing."
Doubts About It.
"Bangs' daughter had such eXpensiva
tastes that I suppose it is a relief
to him to get her married off so well."
"T don't know about that."
"Why not?"
"She was. always on his hands, hut
.when I saw him taking her up the
"■^sle, she. waa oa hia arm."    ,
•The Word Post.
Many persons wonder how we got
the word "post" as applied to the
mails. It comes from the Latin
positus, which means placed; therefore it is a fixed station. From this
i-t came--to mean ap established conveyance ef letters from one station to
another, and the place from which
the letters were sent out came to bo
called the postoffice. "Post-haste," m
word used by- Shakespeare, means
speed in traveling, like that of post
or a courier.
Commission.
Walter had heen collecting coins for
some time, and one morning at breakfast he asked:
"Papa, do you go down town to make
money?"
"Yes," said his father. "Why?"
"I wish you would make me *a set
of TJnited States gold dollars," said
Walter.

Dancing Defined.
Charles had been looking on at a
dance for the first time in his life.
When he reached home   he said:
"Aunty, it wasn't a bit like I thought
it would be.   I thought when people
danced they jumped up and down—
hut they didn't.   They -just took each
other by the waist and skated."—Harper's.
Vocation.
Every man has his own vocation.
There is one direction in which all
space is open to him. He has faculties silently inviting him thither to
endless exertion. He Is like a ship in
a river; he runs against obstructions
on every side but one; and on that
"side all obstruction is taken away, and
he sweeps serenely over a deepening
channel into an infinite sea.—-Ralph
Waldo Emerson.
