HOW HE WAS CURED OF SWEARING

John came IN and inquired whether din
ncr was ready, and was told it was not.
We'll, why in the devil isn't IT." said he
Because she coolly replied, "the wood
was so--wet that the fire wouldn't burn"
"Why, Mary, what is the matter with
you! Are you crazy or have you been
drinkingl'
Neither" she said, and quietly proceed.
ed to put on dinner
The beet didn't melt like butter between
the teeth--t rather resisted all attempts at
masticatiou, like so much ndia-rubbcr; and
finally John blurted out:
"What makes ths---bcci so Internal
toughl" Mary looked up archly and re-
piled:
"Well, John, suppose you went down
to the butchers and without knowing the
difference, picked out piece of some -
old stag that hadn't been feed for n MONTH
John jumped up, looked at his wife in
dismay, and wanted to know what such
language from her lips meant.
at means just this, John; you are the
head of the family, and iustas long as you
think it manly to swear in my presence |
intend to do the same! If you don't like
to hear it you know how to prevent it."
The cure was radical, and to this date
Mary has never been compelled to admins

ton.

The FALSE NOTIONS exist in the minds Of
many otherwise intelligent people as to the
requirements of disordered stomach or
liver. The swallowing of nauseous and
powerful drugs is the way to encourage,
not to cure dyspepsia and liver complaint.
Nor can constlpatcd or otherwise disor-
| dered condition Of the bowels be remedied
by a similar treatment. That agreeable
and thorough stomachic and aperient, Hos
letters Bitters, which is the re-
verse Of unpleasant, and never produces Vi
client effects, is far preferable to medicines
of the class referred to. 1t infuses new
vigor into failing physique, cheers the
mind while 1t strengthens the body, and in
stitutes complete reform in the action of
the disordered stomach, bowels or liver.
Appetite and sleep are both promoted, utter
inc and kidney affections are greatly bcne-
fitted by its use. 1t Is indeed compre-
hensiye and meritorious preparation, free
from drawbacks of any kind.

TWO BRAVE WOMEN,
AND HOW THEY SCARED OFF A BRITISH WA
VEQarI

AND HOW THEY SCARED OFF A BRITISH WAR
VESSEL.
An application for pension is to be
made to congress at the next session, which
there ought not to be the slightest hesitation
IN granting. The persons in whose behalf
the the requests are to be made aretwoaged
ladies OF Scituatc, Miss, Miss Rebecca and
Miss Abigail Bates; and the services for
which, at this late day, they ask slight
recompense from the national treasury,
was rendered during the war of
1872. The sisters lived then, as
now, in Scituate, and in August
or September, 1914, the war.was brought to
their very doors. d British war vessel an
chored in Scituate 'harbor, about mile
from the shore, and one day dispatched two
Darges to seize two American vessels laden
with flour, which lay at anchor near the
shore. The vessels were not manned with
a strong enough force to resist such an at
tack, and their capture seemed inevitable.
But Rebecca and Mary, then nineteen and
fifteen respectively, were equal to the
emergency. Upon seeing the barges put
OF from the British vessel they took
the drum and fife which their father had
used in the revolution, hid behind bluff.
and played so vigorously upon the instru-
ments that the marines in the barges con-
cluded that three must be large force in
the vicinity, and soon turned back, with
out making any attempt to capture their
intended booty. There is no doubt of the
authenticity of this pretty tale, which is
embalmed in the memories of Scituatc
people still living, as we'll as the tradi-
tons of the town; but the heroines did not
ask any reward for their services at the time,
nor would they now, except that the fail
ure OF the village savings bank has swept
away all their little fortune. In this ex-
trcmity they have decided to appeal to
Congress, and their request, strong as it is
itself is made still more impressive by the
fact that this is the first application ever
made for pension by their family, though
not only their father, but their grandfather,
served honorably in the revolutionary war.
