One on Jim Spence.
They nre telling a good joke on
Jim Spence. It seems that Jim was
out driving with a traveling man tho
other day and the subject of cooking
came up. Jim began bragging on his
wife's ability to cook spring chickens.
Tho way Jim described It made the
traveling man's mouth water. The
upshot of tho matter was that Jim
invited tho traveling man to break
fast. That afternoon ho ordered a
couplo of spring chickens, some or
anges and various other dainties.
Meanwhile some of his friends had
got wind of the affair and put up n
job on Spence. Thoy scoured the
town over to And a couplo of tough
old hens and scrawny, warty little
oranges. Thoy had been sent down
lato tho night before so Spence would
have no time to roplnco them before
tho storos closed. That evening,
just after tho goods had been deliv
ered there was a furious janglo of
Kunkcl's telophone bell. Mr. Kun
kel ran to the 'phone, thinking there
must bo a fire. Ho heard an excited
voice say "This you, Kunkol? Say,
chaso out and hunt up thnt travollng
man that was going to take break
fast with me. It's all off. I sent
home a couplo of Bprlng chickens,

TWO NICKELS.
Dropping of One on Car Floor Re
calls Another Incident to Old Gen
tleman, It was In a Boston street cnr.
When tho cnr stopped at a crossing,
n lady got up and went to the door.
Ab sho rose there wob the clink of a
coin on tho floor, but before it oc
curred to nny one to Btop hor, sho
was out of tho car and across tho
street. Two ladles who had sat next
to her, looked with anxious Indiffer
ence on the floor. One of them
lenned slightly forward, but said
nothing. Just ns tho conductor was
reaching for tho boll-rope a young
man spied the coin and dashed out
of the car. Ho caught the lady who
had left the car, handed her tho coin,
ran back, caught the step of tho car
as the motors began to sing in cre
scendo, and sat down breathless.
One of tho two ladles opposite him
leaned forward and said coldly,
"Young man, what did you do with
the nickel I dropped?" Tho passen
gers tittered. An old man at tho end
of tho car turned to his neighbor.
"That reminds me." ho said, "of
something that happened to my wife
years ago.
"It was before the days of conduc
tors, when wo used to drop our nick
els Into a slot, ami they ran down o
groove to the box behind the driver.
"My wife had stnrtPd out with a lit
tle change and one of thoso trouble
some five-dollar gold pieces which
used to be more commonly In circu
lation than they are now. Her eyes
wore not good and so she was nerv
ous about her gold piece, nnd had It
on her mind nil the way down town
"When she took a car for homo she
met a friend, and grew Interested In
conversation with her. Sho put her
coin In the Blot absent-mindedly. Tho
driver turned ns It struck the box.
You remember the coin fell Into a
glaBs compartment first, and then tho
driver pushed a lever which sent It
into the strong box below.
"As my wife heard the click of the
lover, she thought of her live-dollar
gold piece. She looked in her purse.
Sure enough, It was gone. She wont
forward and spoke to tho driver. Ho
said he hadn't looked very carcfuly,
but he thought there were only threo
nickels In tho glass receptnele when
ho pushed the lover.
"My wife Insisted. The driver said
if she would ride to tho end of tho
lino the cashier at the station would
open the box. This meant a Journey
of two miles beyond our street nnd
my wife was In n hurry.
"An old gentleman who sat by tho
door, said he was going to the end of
tho line, and offered to give her ?4.95,
nnd get the gold piece nt the stntlon.
My wife thanked him and took the
money. When she got home she
found the five-dollar gold piece In the
lining of her purso.
"Next day I went to the station.
The cashier said an old gentleman
had made him open tho box. There
was no gold piece. Tho old gentle
man had left In a rage, refusing to
give his name. He said he had been
swindled, and did not want to be
known for n fool."

Mrs. George Hays, living at No.

Kidney Pills to all sufferers from
backache and other kidney troubles,
with utmost confldcnco, that thoy will
do everything that has been claimed
for them by thoso who havo used
them as well as by tho makors. The
trouble for which I used them was
principally backacho, with which I
had been troubled for a long tlmo. It
hurt me badly when I stooped to do
any housework that caused a strain
on the back. I read an advortisoment
about Doan's Kidney Pills and decid
ed to try them, feeling that thoy could
do no harm, even If thoy did no good.
I got a box in the storo of Brock &

as that was sufficient to relievo tho
backache and I have not folt It
