A Terrible Misfortune.

1t is a calamity of the direst kind to feel
that ones physical energies are falling in
the prime of life-to feel more nerveless,
more dispirited, weaker every day. Yet
this is the unhappy lot ofhund-eds around
us. A source of renewed strength which
science approves in behalf of which multi
tudes of the debilitated have and are every
day testifying, and which, in countless in
stances, has built up constitutions snpped
by weaknesses and fnfrmity and long un-
benefited by other means, surely COM
mends itself to all who need n tonic.
Hostetter's stomach bitteTs is such medi-
botanic, soothing to the nerves
prOmoitve to the digestion and n fertilizer
of the blood. Dyspepsia and nervousness
the first n cause, the second a conse-
quence of lack of stamina--depart when a
course of the bitters is tried. All forms of
disease, rheumatism, kidney and
bladder trouble, constipation are annihi-
lated by this standard family medicine.

When He Was q Clerk.

The Man About Town numbers among his
friends a gentleman now well up in the
world, but who O few years ago, when still a
youth, was employed as an under clerk in
the office of a prosperous merchant. Among
his friends was a prominent church dignitary,
who was unacquainted with his whereabouts
and CHANGED one day to call upon his en-
ployer. Recognizing in the clerk an old &C.
quaintance, he gave him a most cordial
greeting. After his departure the merchant,
turning to the clerk, remarked: SIT seems to
me that your social aspirations are little
lofty"
The clerk rejoined: "And it seems to me
that my employer is impertinent. Tho
argument grew heated and ended in blows,
the merchant getting decidedly the worst OF
it. To render the matter worse, the stove
was overturned, setting fire to the store, and
the merchant called Justify for the police.
Badly frightened and with visions Of jails
and juries in his mind, the clerk fled breath
less from the store and ran blindly away from
the scene of the disturbance, pursued by the
guardians of the peace. Espying hospital,
he turned in at the gate, and fell at the door
in heap One Of the sisters came and had
him assisted to bed, where he lay for two
weeks, undergoing medical treatment and
quaking inwardly for fear of detection. In
the meantime the newspapers discussed his
strange disappearance, and the police ran
sacked the town for him in vain. He sue
ceeded in deceiving the attendants, who re-
garded his condition with alarm, but at the
end of two weeks they pronounced him suff1-
GENTLY recovered to leave the hospital He
paid his bill, slipped quietly out Of town, and
his old employer still wonders what manner
of fate befell him.-St. Louis Republic.

Lion and Hippopotamus az Food.

The lion is eaten by some African races,
but its flesh is held in small esteem. The
Zulus find carrion so much to their liking
that, according to the late Bishop Colenso,
they apply to food peopled by large colonies
of larvae the expressive word "uborni," sig
nifying in their uncouth jargon "great hap
piness." David Livingstone, that keen and
accurate observer, reminds us that the abo-
riginal Australians and Hottentots preferred
the intestines of animals. sit is curious
he says, that this is the part which animals
begin with, and it is the first choice Of our
men," On this point may remind the civil
lied reader that the woodcock and the red
mullet or sea woodcock are both eaten and
relished without undergoing all the cleansing
processes which most animals used for food
among us generally experience to fit them for
the table, so that our aversion to the entrails
of animals is not absolute, but only one Of
degree.
The hippopotamus is favorite dish with
some Africans when they can get this I'M
wieldy and formidable river monster, and
when young its flesh is good and palatahle,
but with advancing years it becomes coarse
and unpleasant. The Abyssinians, the
amiable people to whom, according to the
Itdlidu PRIME ululStef, Ills cOuuGry Iueu pro-
pose to teach wisdom and humanity, find the
rhinoceros to their taste; so they do the ele-
plant, which is also eaten in Sumatra.
DR.. Livingstone describes the elephants
foot as delicious, and his praises will be
echoed by many travellers in lands where that
sagacious monster still fingers in rapidly de-
creasing numbers. "We had the foot" wrote
the great doctor, "cooked for breakfast next
morning and found it delicious 1t is a
whitish mass, slightly gelatinous, and sweet
like marrow. A long march to prevent bill
iousness is wise precaution after meal Of
elephants foot. Elephants tongue and trunk
are also good, and after long simmering
much resemble the hump of a buffalo and
the tongue of an OK, but all the other meat
is tough, and from it's peculiar flavor only to
be eaten by a hungry man. "-Cornhill Maya

The StuartS.

The royal house of Stuart were an exceed
ingly disreputable set of people, but in their
lives and their persons they were, with all
their crimes and their vices, essentially SYM
pathetic. The life and death of Mary Queen
of Scots is one long poem, overbrimming
with the deepest pathos. Romance of the
mournfulest but of the most fascinating
kind environs the careers of Charles | and
of the old and young Pretenders Charles
II, rascal as he was has not lost his senti-
mental hold on the affections of the English
people. To them he is still the ''merry mon
arch," who on his deathbed murmured to his
brother, "Let not poor Nelly starve." Pity
and sympathy can even be felt for James Ii
himself, dethroned and banished and Ian
gushing into extinction at st. Germans.
These feelings of sentiment went very far in
deed toward making the triumph Of the
Stuart exhibition.
There are still-in a sentimental sense, of
course-ardent partisans of Mary Queen Of
Scots and of the young chevalier. Jacobites
abound in the very best society; but it is
questionable whether there yet inger any
political adherents of Henry VIII or Queen
Elizabeth. The materials for Tudor exhi-
bition are amazingly copious and rich, but
the display itself must vindicate its claims to
public recognition less as an abstract and
brief chronicle of the Tudor monarchs than
as the reproduction of splendidly pictur-
esque and artistic epoch. One most import
ant step toward the latter contamination will
be made, as the committee have fastened to
announce, by special endeavor to bring to-
gether as complete series as possible of the
works of the illustrious artist Hans Holbein,
court painter to Henry VIII, who, at least,
knew how to estimate the genius of the great
master. LOOK you here" said the Tudor
king to. the naughty noble who complained
that the painter had been rude to him: ''Out
of seven plowmen can make seven lords, but
out of seven lords l cannot make one Hol-

Sleep is closely connected with the question
Of diet; ''good sleeping" was noticeable fea-
ture in the large majority of DR.. Humphreys
cases. Sound, refreshing sleep is Of the ut
most consequence to the health of the body,
and no substitute can be found for it as re-
storer of vital energy. Sleeplessness is, how
ever, often a source of great trouble to elderly
people, and one which is not easily relieved
Narcotic remedies are generally mischievous;
their first effects may be pleasant, but the
habit of depending upon them rapidly grows
until they become Indispensable. When this
stage has been reached the sufferer is in far
worse plight than before. In all cases the
endeavor should be made to discover whether
the sleeplessness be due to any removable
cause, such as Indigestion, cold, want of exer-
else, and the like In regard to sleeping in
the daytime, there is something to be said
both for and againat the practice. A nap of

aged people to get through the rest of the day
in comfort. whereas they feel tired and weak
when deprived of this refreshment If they
rest well at night there can be no objection
to the afternoon nap, but if sleeplessness be
complained of, the latter should be discon-
tinued for time. Most old people find that
reclining posture, with the feet and legs
raised, is better than the horizontal position
for the afternoon nap. Digestion proceeds
with more ease than when the body is recun-
bent -Fortniphtly Review.

Good Morning. Friend.

The other day boy up town yelled so loud
that he frightened a horse, woke police
man, startled the whole neighborhopd into
nervous hysteria, and when everybody came
running out to see who was numbering hiM,
they found he was only calling in friendly
tone to another boy, who was standing on
the other side of the walk about ten feet
away. When a boy accosts his friend he
usually wants him to hear the first time; he
doesn't shout to him merely for the sake of
giving his lungs exercise. -Burdette in Brook

Our hearts bear hopes that die.

And wings that search the sea?-
