The Greatest
Spring Tonic.

At this season of the year Almost
every one experiences a sensation of
general lassitude and debility, which,
if neglected, results in a low, vitiated
condition of the vital forces, that
follows the sufferer throughout the
summer, and usually terminates in
some form of malarial or typhoid
fever. If, however, the patient has
the wisdom to take some reliable
remedy that gently acts on the slug
gish liver, enabling it to speedily
carry off all impurities, while at the
same time the system is vitalized and
invigorated, and the blood enriched,
the result is condition of vigorous
health. This result is invariably
brought about by
Or. R. c. Flowers SCIENTIFIC
Liver and Stomach SalatiVe.
1t is the greatest Spring Tonic ever
given to the world.
Price, $1.00 a bottle. For sale by
all druggists.

with admirable GOODNESS. He demanded to
be taken before the secretary of the Inqusi-
tloIl-a request with which his jailer, for
| obvious reasons, dared not comply. To his
great joy he found that his armchair in
the bottom Of which he had concealed his
piece OF iron, was carried to his new cell.
Somehow he managed TO find out that a
monk was confined in the cell directly
above his own; and he contrive1 to commu-
nlcate with his fellow prisoner by means of
notes concealed in the hollow under the
backs of books. Eventually this piece of
iron was transferred from the lower cell to
the upper under large pie-dish, and with
this the monk, after many dangers and de-
lays, broke hole into Casanova's cell The
latter prisoner was drawn up by ropes,
made of clothes, into the upper apartment,
and from 1t the two prison breakers forced
their way through the roof and found
themselves at last upon the leads. Here
their real perils began. The roof was wet
and slippery, and the night was pitch dark.
Casanova missed his footing, and slid down
to the caves To his horror he found that
he could not stop himself-his legs and part
of his body went over the edge, and he only
saved himself by catching his elbows in the
gutter which ran around the caves. In
this horrible position he hung till, by slow
degrees, he pulled himself up once more
upon the roof. AT length he noticed a gar
ret window far below. 1t was almost mac
cessable, but he and his companion reached
it and succeeded in entering it, From the
garrett they made their way down to the
lower parts of the building, and when the
morning broke they boldly walked out into
the street. As soon as he was inEsafety
Casanova burst into tears Several other
escapes from the "Piombi" are recorded,
but from the "Pozz," the terrible under
ground dungeons by the walls of the canal,
no prisoner ever succeeded in forcing his
way to liberty

Than to live what folks call a life OF ease,
Up thar in the city.
Fer really don't 'zactly understan'
Where the comforts is for any man
In walkin' hot bricks and usin' a fan,
An enjoyin' himself as he says he can,
Up thar in the city.
It's kinder lonesome. mebbe you'll say,
Alvin out here day after day,
In this kinder easy, careless way,
But hour out here is better'n a day
Up thar in the city.
Asfor that, jus look at the flowers aroun'
A-peepin' their heads up all over the groun',
An the fruit a-bendin the trees way down.
You don't find such things as these In town.
Or ruther In the city.
AS l said afore, sech things as these.
The flowers, the birds, an the bum'lebees,
An alvin out here among the trees,
Where you can take your ease, an do as you

Makes it better'n the city.

Bout this kinder life a-bein' rough,
An I'm sure its plenty good enough,
An tween yon an me faint half as tough
