What happened to this physician may have

CO., take this method Of protecting soil OF
Sandaiwood" from this disrepute.
PHYSICIANS who once prescribe the
Capsulas will CONTINUE TO DO so, for
they contain the PURE OIL in the BEST
AND CHEAPEST form.
OIL OF SANDLEWOOD is fact super
seding every other remedy, sixty Cspsules
ONLY being required to insure a safe and
certain cure in six or eight days. From
no other medicine can this result be had.
DICKS SOFT CAPSULES solve the prob

gust experienced in swallowing, which are
well known to detract from, if not destroy,
the good effects of many valuable remedies.

Asoxe on a aLivery Man.

In the city opposite US, there is O
livery man well-known to all persons in
this section of the country, for the sore
rowful way in which he takes the joke
on himself | am about to relate.
One day New Yorker stopped at
his stable to hire horse, bat being a
stranger, Smith, the livery man, refused
to hire, unless the full value of the
horse was deposited. The New Yor,
ker, after great deal of talk, made the
deposit, and after he rode away Smith
chucklcd to himself, saying, Il had no
idea the fellow was such fool as to
leave the full value; but then ! thought
l had better make him, he looked kind
TO- green. Now l am sure Of my hire,
if he never comes back"
Towards evening the New Yorker re-
, turned and surrendered the horse TO
Smith, who refunded the deposit; pla.
cling which in his pocket,book, the New
Yorker essayed to depart, when Smith
stopped him and requested his hire
The New Yorker blandiy rejoined, 81
was riding my own horse, sir. Did
not buy him from you this morning
and now have you not just bought him
from me? l have the money and yoo
have the horse, so what are you talk
ing about?'
Smith saw the point-and stalked iutC
the stable as the New Yorker retreated
homeward
