Healthy Body and Clear Head.

If indigestion, constipation and bilious.
ness tormentS the body. the head cannot be
clear. These disorders react upon the brain
most hurtfully. and produce cloudiness in
the organ Of thought nJ experienced by a
healthy man. Happily these brain-oppress-
Ing maladies may be entirely diSpelled by
that peerless alternative, HosteiteI's StOm-
ach Bitters. which cheers, refreshes and in
vigorateS the brain and nerves, while it reg
ulateS the organs of digestion, assimilation
and bilious secretion. 1t expels the NOR
bid humOrS which poison the system through
the bowels and urinary passages, and exerts
powerful invigorating influence as well.
Its cathartic action is never irritating, viO-
lent or painful, but even, natural and pro-
greSSive. As an appetizer and sleep pro-
moter, the bitters is unriyalled; it mitigates
the intirmities of age, relieves the ailments
peculiar to the gentler sex, arrests prema-
mature decay, and builds up an enfeebIed
physique.

A few days ago German visited the
Battle of Sedan" Not that he is the only
German who has ever visited this grea
picture, but this is peculiar case. While
on the platform he asked the lecturer
where the Eleventh PrGssian army corp,
was, and ON its being pointed out To hin
replied that he had a brother a member
of that division, who was killed at Sedan
The lecturer, for the sake Of joke said
Yes, | know it. Yonder is his dead body
now, lying at this end of the line" The
simple minded Dutchman imagined that
he could see his brother, and, bursting
into tears, left the platform, mu,tering:
"Mein armer bruderI mein armer bruder!"

Begging for Old shoes.

The sight Of heap Of more or less we'll
worn shoes at my bootmaker's led me 10
ask him what he did with the boot gear
his customers left when they replaced it
with new Il used 70 sell it TO the second
hand dealers" he said, but now give it
away. Men come in here every day to beg
old shoes, and it is rarely that l have a
dozen pairs TO spare" He added that the
same call is made on the hatters for cast
of hats. The problem as to what become
of the pins is still unsOlved, however. |
see that some German genius, with an ev-
ident weakness for useless knowledge,
has, after many years of minute and ex-
haustive calculation, decided that a few
over half million pins are lost every
day in Europe alone. As the rate is prob
ably uniform the world over, it suggests
that the earth must be the biggest pin
cushion within the ken of mortal man.
In Berlin by the way, there is an old
clothes charity, where cast-off clothing is
mended and dispensed to the needy by
some charitable ladies, who solicit and
collect their stock from house to house

] must begin by stating that | never
cared for parrots-in fact, as a child, l
distinctly feared and disliked them. One
of my earliest recollections is that Of a
parrot kept by one Of my aunts whom
often visited. 1t seemed peaceable and
quiet enough, and had much freedom,
when it would meander gently about the
room. neither -..EiHg notice Of nor molest-
ing any one. EmGoldened by this con-
duct, thought might venture TO tease
poor Polly, 50 creeping under the table,
very gently pulled its tail.
Deeply moved and incensed by this in
suit, Polly flew straight at me and bit my
finger ! acknowledged the justice OF the
punishment; still, in fright and pain, i
screamed aloud, when my nurse and aunt
flew to the rescue and restored the out
ragged parrot TO her cage. The next day,
on being let loose, it flew straight at me,
and tried to peck my eyes out and bit my
cheeks; 1t never forgot or forgave the in
jury, but tried to bite me whenever il
was loose, flying at me and pecking wher-
ever it could, till at last it became a sort
of nightmare and terror TO me, and re-
pented in tears of the wrong | had com
mitted against it. Full Of years and
hatred, ii at last yielded up the ghost, TO
my peace of mind and its mistress re-

THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE.

Good night, my sweet one, " he said,
And lingering kiss he threw.
Then through the lawn he sped
And quickly lost to view.
But her father had watched it all,
And an awful swear he swOre
As he took his gun from the wall
And through the bushes tore.
And the lover uncOnSCiOuSly
Walked Ia the garden gate;
He thought of his sweet Marie
Who soon would be his mate.
Then he felt grip on his pants
And he heard fathers breath.
Like flash he was over the fence
And escaped a certain death.
But his coat he left on the fence,
And his pants in the bull dogs jaws,
And aS he hurried thence
lie simply said: Good Laws
Tomorrow I'll go 10 the sale
At j. NJ. knOte'S bargain store
And buy suit without fail
For the suit that the bull dog tore.
When Marie saw him next day
In his elegant five dollar clothes,
She threw him kiss cross the way
And loved him more for his woes.
