S'Why, of course. How could she como
in our bedroom and take your wallet
out of your coat?'
''Strangest thing I ever saw. They
took the money, but left the wallet"
At this moment he began searching
his pockets, and when he found the

behind the bureau, under different
chairs, in the clothes hamper, and be-
hind the clock. Once he left his coat
to have a button sewed on. I had not
got around to it yet, and he had been
gone an hour or more, when I looked
out and saw him coming up the street
on the keen jump, with every body
turning to look at him. i supposed the
house was on fire, and grew so weak
thatI had to fall into chair. He
jumped against the front door with a
great bang, fused around to unlock it,
and finally rushed in to yell out:
''Where is my coat?' ..
s'Is-is the house afire?" asked.
'Thunder, no! Where's my coat?"
"Why, hanging on the hall-tree.''
s'And you've been into my wallet?''

He Threw Man and His Donkey Over =
High Stone Wall.
Sir Nicholas Kemeys. Bart, Of Cefn
Mably, was accounted one of the strong
est men of his day, and a tradition of
him, corroborative OF his great strength,
still exists in Glamorganshire The
story runs that one summer evening as
Sir Nicholas was walking in the deer
park at Cefn Mably with some guests,
an athletic man leading an ass, upon
which was his wallet, approached, and
respectfully saluting the company, said
he humbly supposed that the huge gem
tleman he had the honor of addressing
was the strong Sir Nicholas Kemeys,
The stranger, being answered in the
affirmative, declared himself a noted
Cornish wrestler, who had meyer been
thrown, and having heard from Welsh
man, whom he had met at Bristol, of
the great bodily strength of Sir Nicho-
las, had made this journey to see his
honor, adding that, if it were not ask
ing too great a favor, he trusted Sir
Nicholas would condescend to ''try a
fall" with him. The Baronet, smilinglv
assented, but advised the Cornishman
to first 60 to the buttery and get refresh
ment.
The Cornishman declined with MANY
thanks saying he was quite fresh; so
they fell to wrestling, and in moment
the Cornishman was thrown upon his
back. The Baronet assisted him to
rise, asking him if he was now satisfied
Of his strength. The reply was: mot
unless you throw me over the park
wall" The tale continues to say that
this request was readily complied with,
when the unsatisfied wrestler entreated
that Sir Nicholas would throw his ass
after him over the wall, which was &C.
cordingly done! ...
A place is still shown in the ancient
park wall as the scene of the exploit.
A fine picture now at Cefn Mably, in
the possession of Colonel Kemeys-Tynte,
representing Sir Nicholas as of great
stature and apparent gigantic strength.
He was subsequently killed at Chesstow
Castle in defending it against the troops
of Cromwell, having slain many of the
enemy with his own hand in the sortie
in which he fell.-Spectator.

Deafness Can't Re Curea

BY local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way. to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed DEAFNESS is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal condi-
ton, hearing, will be destroyed forever;
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case OF Deafness (caused by Catarrhl that

A few weeks before we were :aarried

liberality he said:
