woman put her hand out of a second

sickning boom, stuck the eye-glass into
his right optic, glared up at the window,
smiled nauseatingly, and said:
"Weally, now, ye know. Pom my word,
a mash -
Come. baby, come" said the woman
at the window.
"Weally, ye know" gasped the dude,

A little child, spattered with mud and
its sweet blue eyes flashing with indigna-
ton, "sized up" the dude for a moment,
then stopped to the ground, seized a
rock, and said:
''Twit taughtin' to my muzzer, you d-n
dude!"
No mash.

Insanity and dissipation have pre-

One feature common 90 almost every

recognized medical authorities tell as
that the IRE which consumes the brain
is always kindled by arrangements Of
digestion; that good digestion Is impos-

IS never known when the liver and Zid-

He would take any prisoner under
