Virginia St., Evansville, Ind., writes: ¢For over five years I was troubled with kidney and bladder affections which caused me much pain and worry. I lost flesh and was all run down, and a year ago had to abandon work entirely. I had three of the best physicians who did me no good and I was prac- tically given up to die. Foley’s Kidney Cure was recommended and the first bottle gave me great relief, and after taking the second bottle I was entirely cured:” why not let it help you. E. A. Barker. No Case on Record. There is no case on record of a cough or cold resulting in pneu- monia or consum ption after Foley’s Honey and Tar has been taken, asit will stop your cough and break up your cold quickly. Re- fuse any but the gennine Foley’s Honey and Tar in a yellow pack- age. Contains no opiates and is safe and sure. E. A. Barker. Found the Set. This story is told by & man who dis- likes nothing so much as to be asked questlons: “My little girl is very fond of sea- shells,” he sald, “and, having been called to Atlantie City on business one day, I took advantage of the oppor- tunity to run down to the beach to see £ I could pick up a few. I was stroll- Ing along the sand, gathering a few bhells and pebbles, which I placed in my handkerchief, when along came one of those old idiots who ask questions with their mouths which their eyes could answer. He smiled upon me and said: ‘Fine day, isn’t it? Are you gathering shells?’ 3 “‘No,” 1 snapped back, saying the first thing that popped into my mind; ‘I'm looking for a set of false teeth I lost while in bathing.’ “He expressed his sympathy, and then his face lit up as his eye caught sight of a pink and white object on the sand. ‘Well, I declare! Here they are mow! he exclaimed, and, sure enough, he picked up a set of false teeth Iying right at his feet. I was too surprised to do anything but grab them and put them in my pocket. The fun- ny part of it is that I never had a tooth pulled in my life. I wonder whom that false set belongs to.”—Philadelphia Record. He Believed the Boy. A judge was explaining to a young student friend the intricacies of evi- dence. He illustrated well the case of conflicting evidence—how when the statements of two witnesses are op. posed the more probable statement is to be accepted. “Usually in conflicting evidence,” he said, “one statement is far more proba- ble than the other, so that we can de- clde easily which to believe. It is like the boy and the house hunter. -A house hunter, getting off a train at a sub- urban station, said to a boy: “‘My boy, 1 am looking for Mr. Smithson’s new block of semidetached cottages. How far are they from here.’ “‘About a twenty minutes’ walk,’ the boy replied. “‘Twenty minutes!’ exclaimed the house hunter. ‘Nonsense! The adver- tisement says five. “‘Well,” said the boy, ‘you can be- lieve me or you can believe the adver- tisement, but I ain’t tryin’ to make no sale’ "—Cincinnati Enquirer. A Dish of Tea. In reference to a note about a “dish of tea,” it may be mentioned that “dish” throughout the eighteenth cen- tury was a colloquialism for cup. In fashionable houses at first, and for long, tea was drunk from a cup with- out a handle brought from China. The vessel was termed a dish. When the Chinese cup was first copled by Eng- lish potters, the convenience of a han- dle was added. The saucer also was brought from China. It received the name because of its resemblance to the English saucer, a platter in which sauce was served. The familiar gibe, “saucer eyes,” was originally inspired by the sauce saucer long before Lord Arlington gave the first tea party in England In Arlington House, where Buckingham palace stands, at the Res- toration period.—London Chronicle. Destructive Music. A member of the board of directors of the Metropolitan Opera House tells a story that he had from one of the musicians attached to the orchestra there. It appears that a friend of the wife of the musician had during a call on the latter inquired as to the hus- band’s taste in musical matters. Among other things she wanted to know what operas the musician liked best to play. “I don’t know much about dot,” said the better half, who was at the time busily engaged In darning an old shirt, “but I do know somet'ings. Voteffer he likes I like not dos Wagner operas. Dey sounds vell enough, but dose clothes—ach! He neffer yet comes home from dot Wagner opera dot he haf not torn a place in his poor old shirts. I brefer the Italian operas.” A Dangerous Feat. For a feat of dexterity and nerve it would be difficult to surpass that of the Bosjesman of South Africa, who walks quietly up to a puff adder and deliberately sets his bare foot on its neck. In its struggles to escape and attempts to bite its assailant the poi- son gland secretes a large amount of the venom. This Is just what the Bosjesman wants. Killing the snake, he eats the body and uses the poison for his arrows. Where Ma Was Strict. Little Girl-My mamma Is awful strict. Is yours? Little Boy—Orful. Little Girl—But she lets you go any- where you want to and— Little Boy— Oh, she ain’t strict with me. Little Girl—Then who Is she strict with? ,gcw Little' Boy—Pa. Wasteful, Grasper (a very careful man)—No, 1 should never allow my daughter to marry a journalist. He always wastes one side of the paper. And still less should she wed a poet. He doesn’t even go to the end of the line. Suited the Case. Tom—Here! You've started your note to Borroughs “Dr. Sir”” Don’t you know that sort of abbreviation is very slovenly? - Dick—No, sir. *“Dr.” is all right in this case. He owes me mon- ey.—Kansas City Independent. Result of Early Training. Cobwigger—In what way does New- rich show that he isn’t a gentleman? Merritt—By paying cash for everything he buys.—Tailor. Just praise is only a debt, but flattery 18 a present.--French Proverb. Butte Mines to Resume, Butte, Mont., March ‘—Joha D. Ryan, managing director of the Amal- gamated Copper company, who has Just returned home from the East, an- nounces that the mines of the com- pany will resume at once. The order means the employment of a full force in the various mines and at the smel- ter. Minister Sentenced to ®rison. Columbus, Kan., March /—Rev. T. M. Rice, pastor of the Baptist church bere, was convicted on a statutory charge and sentenced to an indefinite term in the penitentiary. Mrs. Rice charged that he sent -her and their children away and during their ab- sence lived with another woman, Scnate and Lords. . The British house of lords Is a sur- vival of the ancient aristocracy of the kingdom, which for a long time was supreme in all national matters. When the democratic sentiment won a place for itself in the shape of the house of commons the natural and apparently indestructible conservatism of the Brit- ish people held on to the house of lords as a check upon the commons and a perpetual reminder of the ancient insti- tution. The senate of the United States was the result of the compromisée struck between the Nationalists and States’ Rights parties in the convention that formed the constitution. Some were for merging the representatives In a single body, while others insisted upon the second chamber (the senate) as a recognition of the political equality of the states. e Three Queer Things. The curious things which occur in the world on a given day would no doubt if collected excite the wonder of the most incredulous. Yet in a single newspaper there was recently found an account of a woman who was guilty of so infamous a proceeding as going to sleep at a shop while the as- sistant was in the act of showing her gome dress stuffs, accompanying the exhibition with the usual eloquence of these individuals. The second related the acuteness of two tramps who conceived the idea of going to a fancy dress ball in their ordinary attire. As may be imagined, they devoted the best part of their time to a serious inroad on the re- Bources of the supper room, much to the amusement of the whole party, who naturally thought they were guests who had been invited to the entertainment and who, having made themselves up with exceptional skill for thelr assumed parts, were carrying out the idea of the characters they represented for the purpose of the jest. The third story was that of an ab- sentminded young woman who was playing with a pair of scissors and proceeded to trim off her eyebrows P .| quite unconscious of what she was doing.—Pearson’s Weekly. Benton and Barton. In the “Thirty Years In the United States Senate,” by Thomas Hart Ben- ton, Missouri’s famous United States senator, there is scant mention of Ben- ton’s colleague from Missouri, David Barton. The only place in which his name occurs is where Senator Benton gives the roll call of the senate, and Barton’s name of course is therein contained. Benton undertook to pun- ish Barton by ignoring him and thus relegate the first United States sena- tor from Missouri to oblivion. Barton had brought about Benton's election to the senate. Barton was first named by the legislature, and there was a long contention as to the second senator- ship. Finally Barton’s friendship for Benton brought about Benton’s elec- tion. Later the two quarreled over the appointment of an Indian agent in the far west and drifted further and fur- ther apart. Finally the relations be- tween the two senators became such that they scarcely spoke to one an- other when they met.—Kansas City Star. & The Injured One. A gentleman owning a sugar estate In Demerara went out to visit it for the first time. The day after his arrival he stood watching the punts bringing the cane home. ‘A young negro boy who was driving the mules, wishing to Increase the speed of them, struck one of them with his whip. The mule promptly responded by launching out with his heels and dealt the boy a kick on the head which stretched him on the ground, where he lay rubbing his woolly pate on the spot where the kick had been received. “Is he hurt? Is he hurt?” cried the planter in alarm. A full grown negro, hearing the expressions of concern, sprang forward hastily and, raising the mule’s heels, shouted out: -“No, boss! That mule him" walk: tendah fo’ a day or two, but him no hurt!”—Chambers’ Journal. Locating the Blame. Father—Why, when I was your age 1 didn’t have as much money in a month as you spend in a day.
