Wnke Up.

If you wake up in the
morning with a bitter or
badtaste in your mouth,
Languor, Dull Headache,
Dependency, Constipa-
ton, take Simmons Liver
Regulator. 1t corrects
the bilious stomach,
sweetens the breath and
cleanses the furred tongue.
Children as well as adults
sometimes eat something
that does not digest well,
producing Sour Stomach,
Heartburn, Restlessness,
or Sleeplessness-a good
dose OF Regulator Will
give relief. So perfectly
harmless is this remedy
that it can be taken by
the youngest infant or
the most delicate person
without injury, no matter
what the condition Of the
system may be. 1t can
do no harm if it does no
good, but its reputation
for 90 years proves it
never fails in doing good

Saved by a Proof.

In certain Western newspaper office
the gentleman whose business it is to
record the fluctuations of the live stock
market sits across from the young man
whose lot it is to report wedding cere-
monies. Both are graphic writers and
enjoy that latitude of expression char
acteristic of Western journalism. Both
use the same kind of paper, and their
penmanship is not unlike. Not long
ago the wedding reporter was suddenly
called out of the Office and left in the
middle of the table several sheets of
paper on which was a description of a
fashionable wedding. These sheets
were gathered up by the livestock
writer when he fnisht d his report, and
the two stories became mixed. This is
what the Jealous proof-re ader, later in
the evening, saved from reaching the
public eye: "The church was elab-
orately decorated with holly and eve r
green, and the altar was hidden in a
wreath of flowers. Out of the recesst s
rose rare tropical plants, and from the
ceiling hung fifteen Western veals,
which at this time of year are scarce
and CORE spondingly dear at six to eight
ohN OhS NOhto q Pouhus wax
also choice lot of lambs, and farmers
east of the Mississippi river can profit
ably turn to sheep raising, and take the
bride, who wore a gown of white corded
silk, creation of Worth's, with pearl
ornaments. Then came the maid of
honor, the cousin of the bride, Miss
Henrietta Blower of Chicago, wearing
dress of white tulle, with diamond
ornaments, and she was followed by a
small bunch of Montana sheep, which
bleated most piteOusly as they were
driven on board and shipped to the win
ter hotels in Bermuda. They will there
be cut en- traine and slightly decollete,
and after the rest of the party had
reached the rail, the m mister turned
and said impressively: cannot bid
more than six and one. half cents for
state veals, but cablegrams from Lon
don quote refrigerated beef at a price
that will enable me to pay "a 80 for a
car of choice Indiana beeves, and hear
ing this, there was rush for the young
married couple, and the bride fell into
the arms of her father, who is known
to bear striking resemblance to-a
Connecticut OK weighing ,S75 pounds.
The market here took an upward turn,
and the guests, who numbered about
two hundred, were served with a sumr-
tucus dinner at the house of the BRIDE
Ne,o York Times.

Bishop Brooks Way with Children.

No one who has sec n DIR. Brooks with
children is likely to forget his sway
with them" Sterner persons say that
he makes them behave very badly, and,
possibly in jealousy, otht rs have called
him fonder of youngsters than of grown
people. No objection is heard from
the children. They look midgets, in
deed, on those knees, high and broad,
in which two schools of Guardianship
fguratively meet. Is it foolish to i'm
agine that the new bishops visitations
will gain some of their power-over
mothers at least-through his extre mely
happy intercourse with the children ?
However literally true it may be, surely
the story of DR.. Brooks going to poor
woman's rooms and keeping the chill
dren out of mischief while she went to
church tells something of his spirit.
And the story loses none of its point
when one reflects that the woman could
not hear one of her visitors sermons.-

When quite young at school, Daniel
Webster was one day guilty of viola
ton of the rules. He was detected in
the act, and called up by the teacher for
punishment. This was to be an old
fashioned ferruling of the hand. His
hand happened to be very dirty.
Knowing this, on his way to the teach
er's desk he spat upon the palm of his
hand, wiping it off on the side of his
trousers. "Give me your hand, sir"
said the teacher, very sternly. Dat
went the right hand, partly cleaned.
The teacher looked at it moment, and
said, " Daniel, if you find another hand
in this school-room as filthy as that,
will let you off this time" Instantly
from behind his back came the left
hand. "Here it is, sir" was the ready
reply. "That will do this time" said
the teacher, you may take your seat"
