Probably no one thing has caused
such general revival of trade at Van
elders Drug Store as their giving away
to their customers of SO many free trial
bottles OF DIR. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption. Their trade is simply
enormous in this very valuable article
from the fact that it always cures and
never disappoints. Coughs, Colds, Astli-

and lung diseases quickly cured. You
can test it before buying by getting a

the people Babies, in singles, twins and
triplets are brought by Herr or Frau Stork.
He has had the trade now during some
centuries, has proved so constant and faith
full, so promiscuous and ubiquitous, that he
has become most popular idol. Where he
gets the babies, in what part of the world,
is one of those unsolved and unsolvable
mysteries that shall forever haunt every
German nursery. Why he brings girls
where boys were prayed for and vice versa,
and why he gives black-haired mothers and

any that fate could devise.
Year in and year out the storks keep com

on bringing TWINS and triplets TO homes

them. Only the poor have twins. The only

the many forms under which German
artists picture the stork as baby-bringe ger

Hauf. Germany's great story-teller, has
good fable on "Caliph Storch." We shall
tel 1t from memory. A cahph of Bagdad
was one day seated in his room consulting
with his grand vizier, man of great sa-
gacity. During the conference some one
announced a peddler from foreign parts,
bearing costly treasures. The caliph or
dered that lie be shown into his presence.
After buying a few rare bits the caliph no.
ticed an old bag, containing a parchment
which the peddler SAID he found somewhere
The caliph, who was a great friend of
learning, as all rulers should be. bought the
bag, dismissed the peddler, and sent for
very learned professor of languages, who
pronounced the manuscript a Latin one.

caliph or his companion would consent to
take her she would point out way for their
rescue. The caliph consulted with his
vlzier, and tried hard to urge him to accept
the lady; but the vizier had wife, and to
bring home another was out of the question; !;
better be stork all his lifetime. Finding
the vizier fixed in his determination the
caliph saw that he himself must take Nine.
Owl for his wife. As soon as he apprised
her Of this fact she told him to hide in GER

and wicked Princes would gather; that
they came once week and held councils
over big feast and told tales of their
various tricks; possibly the magic word
would be dropped. That very night the
guests came.
Caliph and vizier listened, and, sure
enough, heard one of the guests. whom they
both recognized as the peddler from whom
they had bought the fatal manuscript; he
was telling of his glorious trick, and how
his master, King So-and-so, had got pos

his story he mentioned the word "Mutabor,"

known, says writer IN the CnlcagO news,
a rich banker and diplomatist to have a
stand or box-like frame built over his chin
ney tops, hoping thus to allure a stork to
make 1 IS or her nest there The stork is
web-footed, tall, dignifed, almost melan-
choly-looking creature. Superstition and
tradition have so long protected him from
injury that he goes about doing pretty much
as he pleases. He is bird of passage, and
gets back to Germany from his winter So
jOurn in Africa about the end of February
or the beginning of March. He is always
most welcome visitor to young and old; his
return presages spring He builds his huge
nest out of rough branches and bits of
wood. he lives upon fishes, frogs, lizards,
snakes, snails, rain-worms, field mice, mole
worms and insects. His greatest delight
and delicacy, however, is a tat frog. He
usually measures yard and half from tip
of bill to tip or tail and stands over three
feet high.
Popular story gives the stork credit
for monopoly Of the baby market. Each
