Put a Brand on Him.

= .sWomen are a necessary evil" he said,
bringing down his fist hard on the counter
to emphasize the heartless remark. 1t was
in the village store at West Milton, Saratoga
County, and the speaker was the central
figure of q groun of bucholic philosophers.
He was homely, sloyenlY and sixty.
"There's where I differ from you alto
cether," said Mr.. George 7. Graham, Of the
same place. s'Women arc mostly what men
make 'em. When husbands are brutes wives
will fall into submission or make home hot
for the men and they're unnatural in either
character. Love them, and especially be
good to them when they're sick, and you II
have no trouble. There's my own wife, now.
She's suffered good deal with dyspepsia,
nervous prostration and other ailments that
took the bloom off her cheeks and the spring
out her steps. Well. she saw an advertise
ment of "Parker's Tonic, and thought 1t
would be just the thing for her case. Gentle
men, sent five miles after bottle. Sne
took it. I sent again after more. SO several
times. Trouble ? Why, if you could see how
much good it has done her you would say
that women are the greatest Of Gods bless
inps. and "Parker's Tonic" is the next.
This preparation, which has been known
as "Parker's Ginger Tonic? will hereafter be
called simply "Parker's Tonic" This change
has been rendered necessary by substitutes
imposed upon their customers by unprinci,,
pied dealers under the name of ginger and
as ginger is really an unimporsaut havoring
ingredient, we drop the misleading word.
There is no change, however, in the prepa-
ration itself, and all bottles remaining in the
hands of dealers, wrapped under the name
of "Parker's Ginger Tonic contain the
genuine medicine if the fac smile signature

A Warsaw paper gives a curious
story of a wager between two
wealthy Polish landlords. They
agreed each to isolate two hens,
two ducks and geese from the pouI-
try yard, and allow them to multi
ply for fifteen years. Superfuous
male and manned female birds
could be sold, but the total sale
was not to exceed ten per cent. OF
the whole flock at the close of hf.
teen years. At the close of that
term the possessor Of the largest
flock was to get the smaller flock
and ten thousand rubles in cash,
to be distributed among charitable
institutions. Upon settling the bet
short time ago, the loser had l..
800 hens, $50 ducks and 276 geese,
a total of 2,696 birds. The winter
had 1904 hens, 965 ducks and 895
geese, a total of 2,S44 birds.

The THREE W1sHEs.-A gentleman
while sitting at the dinner, table
with his family, had these words
said to him by his son, lad OF
eleven years: "Fatber, have been
thinking, if could have one single
wish ofmine, what would choose. "
''To give you better chance, "
said the father, suppose the allow
ance be increased to three wishes,
what would they be? Be careful,
Charley
He made his choice thoughtfully;
first, of o good character, second,
of good health, and third, OF a
good education.
His father suggested to him that
fame, power, riches, and various
other things are held IN general
esteem among men.
''I have thought of all that,
said he; "but, if I have a good
character and good health and a
good education, I shall be able to
earn all the money that will be OF
any use to me, and everything
will come along in its right place
A wise decision indeed, for lad
of that age. Let our young readers
think oft and profit by it.-SeIected.
