THE DALLES OREGON MONDAY - - JUNE 6. 189: A t'onr-Year-Olil Philosopher. Among the many Anecdotes relating to the late Rev. Thomas Hill, D. D., is one told by himself. Dr. Hill and his wife awoke quite early one morning and regarded with interest a crib which con tained a precocious" child of less than four years. Presently the child turned ber face up to the ceiling and solilo quized: "Oh, how much easier it is for a person to think than to act. Now. with a dog it is right the other-way." Boston Traveller.

'1 A well known srentleinsm in this i-.it.v t moved into a house that had been 'pro- vionsly occupied by another gentleman who Mras a subscriber to one of the even ing papers. The carrier of course con tinued leaving the paper for a space of year, never having been notified of the change' The Collector recently went around to collect for the piiper, the bill being made out in the name of tho gen tleman who had subscribed. When the collector presented the bill the gentle man of tho house aid: -. "Why, my dear sir, that man has not lived here for over a year. Von are at the wrong house." . "Well, has not the carrier been leav ing you a copy of the paper all the time?" '"Yes, sir. But I' did not subscribe, and 1 told the loy to quit leaving it. But he never did so." "Yori have received the paper every day, haven't you?" "Yes. sir." "Then you ought to pay for it.r . . "Well, excuse me . moment, and the gentleman went, into the house. Re turning in a moment he tagged oat a stack of newspapers half as tall as him self. "Here are your papers, sir; I have no use for them." - - fie had . read them and carefully filed them away until the bill should be pre sented. . . The collector sent a transfer wagon to haul away a year's accumulation of papers, the pay for which he failed to get, because one man returned them and the man never received them.

' Impure or vitiated blood is nlns times out of ten canned by soma form of constipation or Indiges tion that clogs up the system, -when the blood naturally be comes impregnated with theet fete matter.
