No More Puzzles for Him.

Eugene Carter, the billiardist, was
telling the other night about elk
ed" fifteen puzzle which they once had
in a place down east 1t was during
the time when that puzzle was as pop
ular as the "Pigs in Clover" puzzle
now is. This "fixed" puzzle was ar
ranged in such way that it could
always be solved, and it was brought
out as Il sort of a 'capper" when a
stranger came in. 1t was done so
easily that the stranger was willing
to bet that he could do it. A bet
was made-usually the drinks for the
party-and the strangers attention
was attracted for a moment, when a
regular puzzle was substituted for the
''fixed" one. The stranger would
work on this for an hour or SO and
finally give it up and pay the bet. So
fascinating did this trick become that
the billiard tables would be deserted
the moment a new man took hold OF
it. The billiard trade was ruined by
it, and one day the proprietor came
in, saw how the land lay and threw
all the puzzles into the fire.-Chicago

A Trained Modal.

Mrs. A. l.. Crook gave reception in
her studio last Thursday and exhibited
several interesting additions to her work
of the winter. A small picture, which
shows very pleasing appreciation Of
the art of composition, is the figure of n
young girl of twelve with her right
hand extended, coaxingly tempting n
small dog before her to take bit of
sugar. With the other hand she con-
ceals from his view his muzzel The
carved chair and porcelain umbrella
stand, in which two or three realistic
umbrellas are resting, besides the elab-
orations of fine rug, show that Mrs.
Crook is doing some most careful work.
The dog represented is pet animal
of her own, who, with certain amount
of training has acquired rare accom-
plishments as model. He sits bolt
upright with fixed expression just as
long as his mistress requires, unless
sleep overpowers him, when, after
winking and blinking, his. head mods
and he is in the land of forgetfulness.
One quick stamp of the foot of his mis-
tress. however, brings him to his senses
again and he is bolt upright rs before.
Mrs. Crook has also several delightful
studies of fruit in her studio.

'"There is no place like home" runs
the old song, and we know how true
it is,
Gro where we vill-encounter men in
whatever circumstance we may,-wc
shall be apt to find that n reference to
their homes will Immediately secure
Uaeir attention, and will give you favor
in their eyes.
The impressions made In the home
are lasting. A mothers words never
pass from the mind. A fathers counsel
remains fresh so long MS life lasts. Tho
last benediction of parental love and
solicitude-with what tenacity it clings
to the memory when almost all else has
gone.
How important, therefore that the
home be maintained intact rs long rs
possible-a haven of loving counsel, OF
peace and joy to the growing children
How sad when death inyades, when the
fire goes out on the hearthstone and the
family is scattered. What the children
lose by the death of parent only those
realize who have grown up without that
love and advice which o parent alone
can bestow.
No doubt, tens of thousands of parents
; have found premature graves, who
might have lived years Of usefulness,
had they but known what was sapping
their strength, and slowly but surely
pushing them into the grave. ,
There are tens of thousands of parents
to-day in agony of mind through fear OF
death from kidney disease, who do not
know they are doctoring only symp-
toms such rs wakefulness, nervousness,
splendid feeling one day and all-gone

pneumonia, neuralgia, tickle appetite,
etc, while the real trouble is poisoned
blood caused by diseased kidneys. Un-
less purified with Warmers Save Cure
they will Just rs surely die, as though
poisoned with arsenic.
III you are suffering as described, and
have been for any length of time, you
are, unless you get relief right speedily,
stricken with death, whether you know
it or not.
Doctors publicly admit that they can
not cure advanced kidney disease; they
are too bigoted to use Warmers Safe
Cure because it is an advertised remedy;
consequently, unless you use your own
good Judgment, secure and use War
ners Safe Cure, q specific, which has
proven itself in tens of thousands of
cases to be all it is represented, your
home, through your death, will be
broken up and your loved ones de-
prlved OF that which money cannot pur-
chase or friends supply.
Already too many loving parents, no.
bic, kind and true, have gone down to
premature graves through ignorance of
their condition, and the bigotry of
physicians. 1t is time to cry halt and
we beg of you. for the love you bear
your home and the duty You owe your
self, to give this matter your careful
and conscientious consideration.

was the fortunate holder OF one twentieth

sentation OF his ticket Mr.. Topp has

the lungs, caused by bad blood" At the
Brompton Hospital for consumpt;ves,
London, Eng, statement has been
published that SO per cent. of the pa
tients of that institution have unsus-
pected kidney disorder. This explains
why the proprietors of Warmers Safe
Cure claim that they have received many
testimonials which they have not pub
lished, because of the incredulity with
which they would bo received were it
claimed that Warmers Safe Cure cures
consumption. But the fact is that if
your kidneys be cured and put in q
healthy condition they expel the uric
acid and poisonous waste matter, and
prevent the irritation of the delicate
substances of the lungs, thereby remov-
ing the cause When the effect is re-
moved the symptom of kidney disease,
which is called consumption disappears,
and with it the irritation which caused it.

out that abont one out of four people

can be improved by the use of proper
glasses. The city soldiers who wore
the glasses in the parade made this dis
eovery, and if the country soldiers had
been thoroughly inspected by an ocu-
list it would doubtless have been found
that very large proportion of them
needed glasses-that their vision would
have been improved by using guitable
ones. 1t is hard to convince people
