TUESDAY, NOVIMBIR at, 1903.
r
i There In a story told of a wtor Gwk
v poet who lived in Home at the time of
the Emperor Augustus. It shows us
that wit often succeeds where merit
fall.
" The poet was anxious to fain faror
with the emperor. Every morning he
. waited at the palace door, and as toe
emperor passed out the poet presented
" him with a verse or au epigram that
:'. he hud composed. The emperor accept
ed the poetry, but never paid the pint
' anything. Indeed, his presumption
rather amused the emperor, and. being
oue day lu a merry humor, he wrote a
Terse himself and handed It gravely to
the poet, who waited for him, as usual,
at the gate.
The poet, with ready wit, pulled out
his purse and emptied the two or three
coppers It contained Into the emperor's
hand.
"Ah," cried be. "there should be
more, but I give you my ability! If I
were as rich as you, great Caesar. I
would pay a much greater price for
. verses."
And It is pleasant to be told that the
' emperor thought the Joke worth 1,000
s crowns.
Water Car Fr Rkmutlia.
If people afflicted with rheumatism
., would oar try a simple remedy right
; at (hand Instead of scurrying all over
the country for core they would get
well a good sight quicker," said a maa
who was once so knotted up witn
r rheumatism that he bad to use
crotches. "Just let them drink water,
- quarts of It That's what did the busi
ness for me. I drink about three
quarts of water a day not Ice water,
but Just ordinary cold water as it
comes from the faucet I drink two
glasses when I get up In the morning,
two when I go to bed and I drink It all
day. I have a big pitcher of It put on
my desk, and whenever I look up
from iny work for a minute's rest I
drink a glass of water. No mineral
water, no charged water, no "health
water1 for me, but just plain, good old
fashioned water. To be sure, the salt
water baths at the shore did me a lib
tie good, but the damp days at the
shore took all the good away. Now I
take fresh water baths Internally and
spend my summers where It is high
and dry." New York Press.
Wlat la Wlrea Braatr.
The telegraph operator pulled up hi
horse.
-Harkr he said.
The wind la tbc roadside wire give
forth a shrill sound, a sot menacing
and sad.
Do you bear that? the man asked,
That la a sign of a violent storm.
Whenever you bear It look out for
weather troubles a snow squall In the
winter, a lerriflc downpour with a
thunder and lightning accompaniment
In the summer.
The sound of the wind la the wires
makes a good barometer. I have used
It as a barometer for two yeara and
tt hasn't failed me ones. A scientist
from Germany told me about It Be
said that the variations of the sound
were due to the expansion and contrac
tion of the wires that changing atmos
pheric conditions caused.
"A deep or baas sound of consider
able strength means showery weather
within twenty-four hours. A shrill
sound, as I said before, means violent
storms. A mild hum means continued
tear."
"I Thank The Lord!"
cried Hannah Plant, of Littla Rock,
Ar, "for the relief I got from Buck
fen's Arnica Salve. It cured my fearful
running sores, which nothing else would
heal, and from which I had suffered for
S years." It is a marvelous healer for
rata, burns and wounds. Guaranteed at
Charles Rogers' drug store; 25c.
