New Life
is given by using Browns
IRON BlTTERs. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warns the system; in the
Spring it cnrichcs the blood
and conquers disease; in the
Summer it gives tone to the
nerves and digestive organs;
in the Fall it enables the
system to stand the shock
Of sudden changes.
In no way can disease be
so surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per-
feet condition. Browns
Iron BlrrERs ensures per-
feet health through the
changing seasons, it disarms
the danger from impure
water and miasmatic air,
and it prevents Consump-
ton, Kidney and Liver Dis
ease, &c.

though. Well, the top card is showed
q little to one side, so that the dealer
can sec the next one under it. Now, if
the player has coppered bet on tho
king, and you see that the king is going
to lose, why it's the easiest thing in the
world to slip both cards out, and the
king that would have lost money for
the house don't show up. The case
keeper, of course, has to be posted, and
marks the cases accordingly. The
newest invention. though, is what they
call the "put-back" box. This is the
safest md most ingenious device tint
I know of, There is an apparatus so
arranged that when the dealer pulls
out two cards he Gun hold one OF them
in his left hand that is, if ne is slick
And put it back in the bottom of the
box. III this way the cases are always
kept straight, and no one Is likely to
get on to the racket.

day or two before, and he had over a
thousand dollars i'll his pocket. He
had one $40 gold piece that was coun.
terfeit, it having been passed on him
that day. He wanted to play bank at
a certain place, but I objected, telling
him it was braco game, and that he
stood no show for his money. He per-
sisted, however, and I waited in
neighboring saloon. In about half an
hour he came in, tickled to death. He
was laughing 80 hard that his fat sides
fairly shook. When he had sufficiently
recovered he burst out with: "Well,
Tom, got the best Of thom that time. /"

"Passed that counterfeit tenner on

fit of laughter that shook the building.

pIay2"
ooh, I lost the roll, but I got even
with 'em + yes, 1 got even with 'em ;
passed tho tenner on 'em, you know"
And then he exploded again. Such
chumps are numerous.
