The fashion of spelling children by
Over-indulgence IS prevalent enough IN
the United States, but the most ridicu-
lous case on record comes from across
the water. A young French couple
had been invited to a dinner party Of
twenty persons, but did not appear at
the appointed hour.
The eighteen punctual guests, as we'll
as the host and hostess, waited till
further waiting seemed useless, and
finally the banquet began with two
empty chairs. When dinner was half
over in walked the absentees. They
looked little foolish, but proceeded
TO make their apology, quite as If it
were a matter of course.
It seemed that their little girl of 3
years old had been put to bed just as
they were setting out, and when they
went into her chamber to bid her
goodnight, she suddenly exclaimed:
"Mamma, 1 won't let you gOp
Mother and father pleaded in vain.
The child was ineXOrable, and, seeing
her advantage, soon increased her de-
mands. Not only must her parents re-
main at home, but they must straight
way undress and go to bed. They re-
sisted at first, and explained that they
had accepted an invitation and must
keep their engagement. But all IN
!, vain. The little tyraut grew more and
more imperious. and actually threatened
to cry. That beat them, as the mother
expressed 1t.
"Of course, when the sweet child
told us she was going to cry we were
forced to yield; it would have been
monstrous to cause her pain simply foI
our pleasure; so L begged Henri to
cease his efforts to persuade her, and
we both took OF our clothes and went
to bed. As soon rs the little darling
was asleep we got up, dressed again
and here we are, with thousand
apologies for being so late"

The Correct Time.

There are very few men who do not
pride themselves on always having the
correct time; and wonderful and delicate
mechanisms are devised to enable them to
do so. But the more delicate a chrOnOme-
ter is made, the more subject it becomes to
arrangement, and unless it be kept always
perfectly clean, it soon loses its usefulness
What wonder then, that the human ma
chinese much more delicate and intricate
than any work of Man-shOuld require to
be kept thoroughly cleansed. The liver Is
the handspring of this complex structure,
and on the impurities left in the blood by a
disOrdered liver, depend most of the ills that
the flesh Is heir to. Even consumption
(Which is lung-scrOfula), Is traceable to the
imperfect action of this organ. Kidney dis
eases, skin diseases, sick headache, heart
disease, dropsy, and long catalogue of
grave maladies have their origin in a torpid
or sluggish liver. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
zeal Discovery, by establishing a healthy,
normal action of the liver, acts as a cure and
preventive of these diseases.

Onr RIGHT Hand.

The habit of using the right hand IN
preference to the left among those peO-
Die whose mon ments date from the
remotest antiquity appears to be a uni
versal fact, and this is accounted for by
the anatomical mechanism Of the human
body. 1t Is known that the right lung,
liver lobe and limbs exceed III size
those of the left side, involving, OF
course, a greater amount of tissue
structure and a larger supply Of nerves
and blood TISSUES for their nutrition.
A person walking in a dense fog hg-
ures with his feet the segment of cir
Gle, and, if he is right-handed, he takes
q direction to the left, because the right
LEG naturally takes q longer stride
The left side of the brain is larger than
the right, and, as it appears that the
mower Of verbal articulation IN the
Tioht hand is confined to a GER
tain eonvolution on the left side, the
conclusion is arrived at that, IN speak
inc and thinking the left side Of the
main is used, this being the result o.
dextral education. The opinion ha;
also been expressed by some mediea
writer's that amnesia aod aphasia II
right-handsd men indicate disease o
ne left brain, and that hammer pals
md writer's cramp show the results o
eTcessive working of the left brain.

An Observant metropolitan barber

The Bible tells Us that with his hair
gone Samson lost his strength. The
Romans considered badness a serious

quite Satisfied with himself because his
poll was bare.

Of March, because it is then that con-

Consumption they tell Us Is caused
by this, that and the other thing, by

thousand and one things, but whatever
the cause, decay begins with cough
and the remedy that viii effectuaIly stop
the cause Of that cough cures the dis
ease Of the lungs.
That Is all there is of it.
The cough Is an evidence Of a vast
ing. To stop it effectually, q rem
edy must be used that will search out
the cause, and then heal the lung and
do away with the cough. This Is the
power, special to itself, possessed alone
by Warmers Log Cabin Cough and Con
sumption remedy. This is no new
tangled notion of narcotics and pOisOns,
but an ld-fashioned preparation of bal,
sans, roots and herbs, such as was used
by our ancestors many years ago, the
formula Of which has been secured ex-
clusiveiy by the present manufacturers
at great trouble and expense. 1t Is not
a mere cOld-drysr. 1t is a system
searcher and upbulder, and a cOnsump-
ton expellant. Whsre others fail, it wins.
because it gets at the constitutional
cause and removes it from the system.

on Jan. 10, 1888, reported that she had
derived more real benefit for the length
Of time, from Warmers Log Cabin Cough

A RACE.

The " democrats " of New York
had n pow-wow last Tuesday to eau
Gus about the presidential race. The
"republicans will start their can
dilate about June 10. Then, when
the " democrats and "repubi-
cans" have named their favorites, a
race for spols will begin and last till
November. The entry fees are
large, and are borne by the hackers
of the racers for a consideration.
The people usually get excited over
such races and lose their heads.
After the race they find the politi-
ticians have once more tleeced them
of their votes, and they retire to the
humdrum of everyday life, content
with promises of reform, till it is
time for another race, and the ope-
ration is repeated. The people are
intelligent wlthal, but they have
come to look upon politics as sport.
One thing is certaln-they foot the
bills.

CUBA.

The persecution OF patriotic Gu

tales Of horror are beginning to cir
culate outside the walls Of the (aS-

This misery might have been

act of justice now bears fruit. Span

United States to help the Cubans
should they once more try the arblt-
ramcnt Of war, on the other.
The Cuban newspapers are 81
fenced by threats from Governor
General Marin. If the scenes of Il
score of years ago are to be repro
duced, we trust that the Cubans will
have the advantage of II better equip
ment for the destruction of their
enemies. Meanwhile the people of
this country should use some effort
to help their neighbors throw off the
Spanish yoke, The Monroe doc
trine is violated every day that Cuba
remains a Spanish province.
1t is true the Cuban revolution
lists, as a whole, are not Socialists,
nor have they amy greater ambition
than the political independence of
their fertile island. Perhaps they
may learn something by their defeat
and subsequent suffering, but it is
hardly probable that they will as
