Sunday Is tho woi'klnginnu'H day—a
day for well-earned rest at home. A t
the recent English Church Congress the
Sunday question whs discussed, and
the strongest advocate o f Its religious
observance was a workingman. Says
the N ew York Churchman:
W ith remarkable effect, he challenged
those speakers who had advocated a
modified observance o f the Sunday to
produce the workingman who would
defend the modern Inronds upon the
keeping of the Sunday as a day of rest.
It Is worthy of notice that as a rule

One of the tightest squeezes that I
aver got out of, said the inveterate pok­
er player, was in Now York during the
rise of the great niotal wave that was
being felt in every gambling house in
the oity.
I was almost a total stranger in tbe
city, but the second night after my ar­
rival I let the clerk of the hotel know
that I wanted to find some place where
there was u little game, not too steep,
in progress, and after sizing me up for
a tim e he whispered a number in my
ear.
A fter sundry rappings and waitings I
passed through a series of balls and
rooms and was shown into a large gam ­
bling parlor that was apparently doing
a good business in spite of the reform­
ers.
I seated m yself at a table where they
were playing “ senator. " Tbe game is
nothing more nor less than poker with
the exception that it is all jackpots, and
a man can open tbe pot ou any kind of
a hand he wishes instead of having to
soe before him the traditional “ jacks or
better. ” This scheme makes the game
a much livelier one and mure attractive
to men who are good at bluffing.
There were six of ns playing. The
cards were dealt by a man employed by
the house, who dealt to every man iu
turn. Any player had the privilege of
dealing for himself if he wished, and
this permission was supposed to allay
all doubt as to the disinterestedness of
the dealer.
The game was comparatively new to
me, and as it is a confusing oue to a
man who has been accustomed to sizing
up the man who opened the pot as sure­
ly having some sort of a hand I lost
steadily.
From several things 1 gathered that
tbe man at my right was “ playing for
tho house"— that is, he was supplied
with chips free and paid to tho proprie­
tor a certain per cent of his winnings.
As the game is one of bluffing and a
man free from care and betting other
people’s money can blntf better than a
man who sees his little pile steadily
diminishing, the man who played for
the house very generally won.
W henlcum e into the room I had with
me $500, money that I had collected for
my employer, for I was out on a collect­
ing tour. In oue brief hour I was down
to 1 100, ami theu came my first good
hand.
I had three big aces pat, and I opened
the pot for a good sum. The most of the
players at tho tuble who had noticed my
tim id style of play at once dropped at
my exhibition of strength, and I began
to kick myself for giving my bund uwuy
so. The only man that staid was the
ono who I belioved was playing for the
house.
He drew three oards, and I drew oue
and bet $25. The other man looked at
my pile of chips and said, "H o w much
have you on the table?”
I answered, " F i f t y dollars. ”
“ Well, I w ill raise you that $60, ”
said lie, with a laugh.
Of course I called, and he laid down a
straight, ace high, with the remark that
it was a pretty lucky draw to an ace and
king that he had held up. I remarked
that it was a wonderfully lucky draw
and askod how often he paid $25 for a
chance to draw to an ace and king.
Every one could see I was suspicions
o f cheating when I rose from the table
and remarked that I luid had enough.
It was enough, for I didn't have anoth­
er cent w ith me and little at the hotel.
I loitered about the different games
for awhile, for it is a great source of in­
terest to a heavy loser to see other men
win and notice how easy they take it.
While standing near the outer door I
took ont my notebook to see what chance
I had of collecting enough to cover my
loss until I bad time to make it good. I
had hardly niado a conple of figures
when I saw the man who had won the
last pot from me get up from the table
iu a liasty manuer and address another
mnu, who was presiding ut the wheel.
This man wns the proprietor, and lie
at once came over to me and in a confi­
dential tone inquired if I was a report­
er. I saw ray notebook had given him
tho impressiou and answered in ail as­
sured sort o f way. " Yes. ”
“ W e ll," «aid he, “ how much is it
going to take to make you forget this?”
I didn't realize exactly what he
meant, bnt answered that it had tuken
$500 to make me remember It. He rush
ed me into the hall, handed me $ 1,000
aud said, “ W ell, forget it n o w ."

The folding bed, once an immensely
popular institution, is losing its grip.
N ot one is called for now where tw o or
three years ago a dozen were ordered.
T w o big factories we know of, which a
very few years ago had difficulty in
keeping np with orders for folding beds
even by working night and day, are now
making other lines of fnruiture, aud the
folding bed prodnetion in all factories
is steadily declining. The accidents
which frequently occurred with the
folding bed doubtless had some bad in­
fluence on its popularity, bnt this was
not the only disadvantage tbe mnltnm
in parv« fnruitnre had to contend
against. The beds were heavy, clumsy
affairs, even under the most favorable
conditions. Many are hard to handle
without a derrick or a yoke of oxen, and
they are also bard to keep clean. Then
also there is an increased call for beds
of brass and iron. Such beds are prac­
tically the only kind sold in England,
and they have steadily increased in pop­
ularity in this country during the last
five years.— Upholsterer.

For those who don evening dress only
infrequently mnch danger lurks, as all
know, in the removal of bigli necked
underwear and the sudden exposure of
unaccustomed neck and shoulders to
winter temperature. I d such an event a
wise course to pursue is to begin the
day before the festal occasion to bathe
the chest, neck aud shoulders profusely
with alcohol and to continue this treat­
ment throughout the follow ing day.
There is no better preventive of colds,
and alcohol does not, as is the case with
so many such helps, leave an unpleasant
odor behind. For the last 12 bonra be­
fore putting on the evening clothes it is
w ell to wear about the house a lighter

custom oneself by degrees to the coming

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one Urea*led
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. H all’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
