RIDER HacGGarp has sent $5 to a woman who wrote to him regarding two grammatical errors she had discovered in his novel ‘‘She.” There are vari- ous popular novelists of the present day who would ruin themselves if they paid $2.50 for each sin against grammar they commit.—America. ‘AND if I should die, dear,” said a sick husband, “will you sometimes visit my grave ?” “Yes, John,” she replied, brokenly, ‘every pleasant Sunday afternoon, and I will take the children.

Lockwood, one of the best known life insurance managers in this State, organized an accident insurance company, which, from its simplicity and cheapness, became popular almost from its inception, and to-day its business reaches out to the remotest corners of America. Backed by ample capital and paying all just claims promptly has made the Provident Fund Society, of 280 Broadway, New York, a phenomenal success. Twelve dollars per annum will insure $25 per week while disabled, and in case of death by violent means $5,000 is paid to heirs. The plan is an admirable one and deserves to succeed on its merits.

We have tens of thousands of testi- dorsement of Prof. S. A. Lattimore, M.A., Ph., LL.D., Official Analyst of foods and medicines, N. Y. State Board of Health, and scores of eminent chemists, physicians and professional experts. H. H. Warner & Co., do not cure everything from one bot- tle, they having a specific for each important disease. Fight shy of any preparation which claims in- fallibility. The testimonials printed by H. H.

Drew and Adam Forepaugh, the circus man, bear a most striking resemblance to each other.

But—well— assure me that you are not addicted to gambling, play and such like, and—I will think about it.” “That is easy.’ I detest billiards; I abhor games of cards of all kinds; I regard pugilism and horse- racing with disdain.” “‘Then—George—I—think you may hope.” “I despise baseball, and—” “You do? George, I can never, never be your wife; but I will always be a sister to you.”—Zincoln Journal. comicbooks.com
