A. Good Medical Joke.

A coed story is in circulation of a
certain doctor who sometimes drank a
good deal at dinner He was summoned
one evening to see lady patient when
he swas more than half seas over"
and conscious that he was so. On feeling
her pulse, and finding himself unable to
count its beats, he muttered Drunk,
by Joye !" Next morning, recollecting
the circumstances, he was greatly
vexed, and just as he was thinking what
explanations he should offer to the lady,
a letter was putinto his hand. "She too
well knew" said the letter, shat he had
discovered the unfortunate condition in
which she was when he had visited her,
and she entreated him to keep the mat
ter a secret in consideration of the en-
closed one hundred dollar bill.

Have Over 200 Such Testimonials.
MAGGIEL'S PILLS AND SALVE are al
most universal in their effects, and cure can
be almost always guaranteed. FOR BILIOUS
DISEASES nothing can be more productive of
cure than these Pills. Their almost magic in
fuence is felt at once ; and the usual concomi
tants of this most distressing disease are re-
moved. These remedies are made from the
purest VEGETABLE COMPOUNDS. They
will not harm the most delicate female, and can
be given with good effect in prescribed doses TO
the youngest babe. FOR CUTANE0US DIS
ORDERS and all eruptions of the skin the
SALVE is most invaluable. 1t does not heal
externally alone, but penetrates with the most
searching effects to the very root of the evil.
