One of the latest novelties in silver

Dinner services of silver are, as q

GLADSTONE'S CANES.

Peculiar Collection of WaIkn g. Sticks
Priced by The Great Commoner.
During visit to Hawarden, Mr..
Willis, while in the library, said that
he had promised his wife to try and
induce Mr.. Gladstone to part with a
walking stick, that he might carry it
off as a souvenir of the day. The great
chief smiled, and, going to a corner,
produced a thick, serviceable baton:
81 can not give you this, +" he said, look
ing at it as if it were an old friend; 81
bought it five-and-twenty years ago at
mentioning some Gaelic place ending
in feccha1o-"and it has been many
mile with me since" / at once thought
I could recognize it as the famous
s'piece of timber lost by DR.. Johnson
more than century ago in the Hebri-
des, and about which he made Boswell
so miserable. "You will get it again,
sir, said Jamie; sit can not have been
stolen" 81 don't know as to that, sir, =
thundered the photographer. "Con-
slider the temptation it must have
been. 1t is the only piece of timber
on these islands, And so pleased
was the great Sam with his
joke that it restored him to
equanimity and good humor. But co re-
turn to Hawarden. Mrs. Gladstone
was despatched to bring in an assort-
ment of walking-sticks, and soon reap
peared with some that were marvels of
eccentricity. mo, my DEAR" he ex-
claimed, mot these. They are eccen-
trio. They will be recognized. They
were given to me. can not give away
what were given to me-" Mrs Glad
stone explained that they were only
brought for inspection as curiosities,
and that more sticks were coming.
Meanwhile we inspected those that
were brought. One of them. of light
colored wood, consisted of curious coils
and convolutions, and looked like the
emblem associated with Esculapius,
the son of Apollo and Coronis, whom
Chiron taught the art of healing; or
like the caduceu5 of Hermes Another
was carved like Gothic scepter, and,
turning it about [ read aloud the le-
gend that ran twining around its length:
"Home Rule for Scotland" This ar
rested Mr.. Gladstone's attention, and
he slowly re-read it. ''Well," he at
length observed, whatever the Scotch
make up their mind to ask for they will
get" And then he added: ''But don't
think they will want much" By this
time other sticks were brought, but, if
possible, still more grotesque. One
looked as if it had tumbled down and
broken its knee, which had reset itself
with the most hideous excresences
''No, MOP cried our host; "not that
either, my dear. That was only given
me last week" And then setting off,
with the air of man who Is convinced
that if the right thing is to be done one
must go and do it himself, he left the
room. Pail Nall Gazette.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which so many seem now to be afflicted
If you will remember few years ago
the word malaria was comparatively un
knOwn.-tO-day it is as common as any
word in the English language, yet this
word covers only the meaning of another
word used by our forefathers in time
past. So it is with nervous diseases, as
they and Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Biliousness,
and all are caused by troubles that arise
from a diseased condition of the Liver
which is performing its functions finding
it cannot dispose OF the bile through the
ordinary channel is compelled to pass it
off through the system, causing nervous
troubles, Malaria, Bilious Fever. etc.

ate a cure. We recommend Green's Au-
gust Flower. Its cures are marvellous.
