This May Interest You No one is immune from kidney trouble, so just remember that Foley’s Kidney Cure will stop the irregularities and cure any case of kidney and bladdar trouble that is not beyond the reach of medicine. E. A. Barker. A Caustic Reply. A gentleman once said to a barrister, “That was a very good sermon of your father’s today.” To which he replied: “Yes. He must have cribbed it from some one.” But the father overheard this remark and reminded him that the Bible says, “The ox knoweth hls owner and the ass his master's crib.” This caustic reply silenced the barrister.— London Telegraph.

Barker. ," Trizals of Writers. - George Eliot In one of- her lotters referring to her novel “Danlel Deron da,” writes as. follows: “My book seems to me so unlikely ever to be finished In a- way that” will make if worth while giving to the world that it is a kind of glass in which I behold my ioNrmities.” Again of the same work, “As u I, 1 am suffering much from doubt as to the worth of what I am doing and fear lest I may not be able to complete it so a8 to make it a contribution to literature and not a mere addition to the heap of books.” Montesquien wrote thus to a friend. . “I thought 1 should have killed my-|J§ self these three months to finish a morcean (for his great work) which 1 wished to insert on the origin and revolutions of the civil laws of France, You will read it in three hours, but 1 do assure you that it cost me so much labor that it has whitened my hair.” The eminent modern French writer Gustave Flaubert suffered tortures in his efforts to attain perfection. When composing, he would sometimes spring to his feet, shriek aloud and call him- self “blockhead,” “idiot.” No sooner was one doubt removed than another arose. At other times he would sit at his writing table as one magnetized, lost in contemplation. His friend Tur- geneff declared that it was exceedingly touching to see his struggles with lan- guage. He would work a whole day and sometimes all night on a single page. Traps of the Ant Lion. ‘We read of the tiger traps in India— great pits dug in the ground and cov- ered lightly with pliant bamboo. The tiger steps upon the false top and be- fore it can retreat is precipitated into |. a trap. Walking along a sandy road, look for tiny circular pits sunk below the surface and then sit down and watch an exciting episode in the life of the little still hunter which has dug the pitfall. It is invisible, and for some time the whole affair seems life- less. Then an ant comes blundering along and without warning topples over the edge and begins to slide down the incline. But the insect fights hard for life and seems about to make its escape, when, lo, the sand grains heave upward at the bottom and with a jerk are hurled like a miniature catapult at the ant, knocking it over and rolling it to the bottom. The ant lion, for such it is, now seizes its prey and after sucking its juices casts the dry body away and mends its pit against the coming of another victim.— Chicago Record-Herald. Scientists’ Corner. Lord Kelvin was buried in West- minster abbey in the spot which by analogy we might call scientists’ cor- ner, but it is such a very ugly phrase. If pilgrimages are made there the pil- grims will be of another type from those whose shrine is poets’ corner. And yet, when one thinks of the poets, how many of them have opened up such wide spaces of imagination as Newton and Herschel, Darwin and Kelvin? If Shakespeare had known such men he would have admitted thelr right t¢ take their place with the lover, the madman and the poet who are of “imagination -all compact.” But this conception has not penetrated the popular mind, which is hardly equal to pure imagination unadulterated with emotion and a good many primitive instincts.—London Saturday Review. Getting His Money's Worth. A New Hampshire man tells of a tight fisted man’ of affairs in a town of that state who until recently had never been observed to take an inter- est In church matters. Suddenly, how- ever, he became a regular attendant at divine service, greatly to the aston- ishment of his fellow townsmen. “What do you think of the case of old Ketchum?” said one of the busi- ness men of the place to a friend. “Is it true that he has got religion?” “Well, hardly,” replied the other. “The fact is it's entirely a matter of business with him. I am in a position to know that about a year ago he loaned the pastor $50, which the latter ‘was unable to pay. So there remained nothing for Ketchum but to take it out in pew rent.” Struck Out. Dr. C., who always employs two servants, man and wife, was talking to a patient one day about a couple he had just discharged because the man drank. He remarked: “It is so strange, but it is always the way with a man and wife. If one is good, the other is no The patient asked him, “How is it with you and Mrs. C.?”’—Philadelphia Ledger. Home Life of Genius. The Actor (before breakfast)—Where are the.papers, my dear? His Wife (an actress, absentmindedly)—C-curse you! They are far beyond your reach, thank heaven! And I'll die a thousand deaths before you can wr-r-r-r-ring the secret from—oh—er—Jack, I mean, the boy forgot to leave them this morning! —Puck.
