IVhat He Was Golac to Say.
Geo. W. Peck says of his recent
interview with the. President: "I
had thought of several things I
wanted to say to Mr. Cleveland.
Several of the boys in Milwaukee
had told me to give their love to
(J rover if I saw him, and I had
made up my mind to just give
him to understand that he was
thought a good deal of up in "Wis
consin, and that, so far as I could
see, his appointments had given
pretty general satisfaction, and that
we all wished him well. I intended
that the few remarks I should make
would be the greatest effort of my
life. My idea was to wait till all the
gang had passed him, and then
bring up the rear, and when he took
my hand I would hold on to it and
speak about as follews: 'Mr. Pres
ident, I cannot let this occasion pass
without saying to you that the peo
ple of "Wisconsin are very proud
that you have got along as well as
you have. The Republicans are
hopeful that yon will not do any
thing very brash, and tlie Demo
crats will stand by you. Ed. Wall
and Bill Dodsworth, who is an old
Bufialoboy, ArtDelaney, and George
Paul, aud any quantity of Milwau
kee boys, want to be remembered to
you.' O, I had a speech as
iong as my arm that I was going to
fire at him, and I fell in behind the
crowd and went along. A big hand
was reached out, and mine was
clasped by the President, at last.
I had his hand. I had my head
down, to keep me from stepping on
the trail of a woman ahead of me,
who seemed to linger longer than
was necessary. As her trail disap
peared, I was just going to look up to
say my speech, when he let go of
mj' hand and reached for another
fellow just behind me, and the other
fellow stepped on a stone-brif se on
my heel, the only heel I have got
with a stone-bruise on it, and I
looked around at the big-footed ga
loot behind me, and was borne out
of sight, and I. hope never to see the
back of my neck if I had said a
word to the President."
.-.ome Cynical Remarks.
lie who fears death loses life.
Fear is death to pleasure.
The earlier a man has his eyes
opened to the realities of life, "the
sooner he wants to close them.
If there be such a thing as the
finger of God, it must be connected
with the arm of Justice.
Everybody has more or less cause
to be unhappy. Happy is the man
a ho is too busy to be miserable.
He who is always complaining de
serves to have good cause to la
ment. As there is no method of lengthening
life, we must find means to shorten
time.
The pessimist who is also a humor
ist turns his own shroud into a harle
quin's jacket, and is there a more
appropriate mask in this crazv car
nival of human life?
It often happens that fate not
only presses a cup of poison to a
man's lips, but even make3 him
drain it slowly, drop by drop.
The proverb that man proposes
but God disposes is false. Man does
not propose, and God does not dis
pose. Tlie world may forgive us for being
weak and foolish, but it never con
dones our superiority. That is the
unpardonable crime."
Man should endeavor to correct
his faults, but he is a fool if he ad
mits, even to his friends, that he
has faults.
Men are always willing to depre
ciate your good qualifications, and
to imitate your bad ones.
It is not strange that very few
men know themselves intimately.
Most people like to get rid of dis
agreeable acquaintances.
Only stupid people complain of
hard work. Smart people never
overwork themselves.
It often happens that fear is merely
dread of being afraid.
There is only one immortal. His
name is Death.
Barnum's Xew Year's Advice.

Bridgeport papers before New Year's,
in which he says :
"I wish, therefore, to hint to my
fellow citizens that tho most valua
ble and cheap New Year's present
that one who drinks intoxicants
can give to his or her family- is a
temperance pledge signed and for
ever adhered to. I have personally
known in Bridgeport, young men,
single and married, who scarcely
earned a living, beyond what they
expendedfor beerandstrongerdrink,
turn about, sign the pledge, and
now own the houses they livo in, and
are laying aside surplus money every
year. One city will be greatly bene
fited if those Avho are now under the
power of that liquid which never did
a healthy person a particle of good,
will, on the coming New Year's, or
now, become total abstainers- for
life."
Cure For Piles.
Piles aro frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing tho
patient to suppose ho has some effection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs
At times, symptoms of indigestion are
present, flatulency, uneasiness of tho
stomach, etc. A moisture like perspir
ation, producing a very disagreeame
itching, after getting warm, is a com
mon attendant. Blind, Bleeding and
Itching Piles yield at once to the appli
cation of Dr. Bosanko's Pile remedy,
which acts directly upon the parts ef
fected. absorbing the Tumors, allaying
th e intense itch tng,and effecting a per
manent cure. J?rl coco cents. Address
