Adolph Belos,s l-.ssentiment.

Here is true, strange story of Adolphe
Belot, the writer of shelfful of novels,
who died few days ago. About fort
night before his death he called at Den
tu's to settle an agreement for new
story. When the matter had been ar
ranged he suddenly exclaimed: ''I want
you to add another clause to that agree
ment." 'What is that?" II want you
to undertake, when l die, to pay for my
funeral" But, my dear sir" replied
the interlocutor in astonishment, "what-
ever are you thinking about? We could
not think of inserting such clause in
an agreement for new book" But, y
objected Bclot, walking up and down
the room with his hands in his pockets,
''it is a very small matter for you. |
have made inquiries, and find that a
funeral such as / want will cost only
eos"
''But it is impossible" Every well,
then" Belot resumed; ''shall we manage
it another way? Will you undertake to
pay thousand francs to the person who
will present demand for that sum, in
my name, the day after my deathY' The
publishers were still astonisht&, but they
undertook to make the payment, the
partner with whom the conversation
took place saying it hardly mattered,
since the obligation would not fall upon
him, but upon his successors. elbow do
you know? said Belot, as he went out;
"you may have to pay good deal sooner
than you expect" And so it happened

HOW TO DETECT 1T.
Some Valuable Hints Regarding the
Grippe-Signs of Its Approach and How
to Counteract Them

Some Valuable Hints Regarding the
Grippe-Signs of Its Approach and How
to Counteract Them.
The di. cussion as to the cause of the Grippe
is OF course interesting, but gives little salts
faction TO its unfortunate victims. Whether
caused by microbe or vagaries of the weather,
its ravages continue, and the country still
bends under its scourge. In Chicago, recently,
the deaths from this cause were so great that
the undertaking facilities of the city were in
sufficient to meet the emergency. The death
rate is correspondingly high everywhere.
II cannot be too strongly impressed on peo-
pie that, in order to ward of the disease, warn
action taken. 1t becomes extremely difficult
to dislodge the disease if allowed to take its
course. Hence its name. 1t generally com
mences with slight headache or pains in the
small of the back or limbs 1t does not always
give one even plain hint as this-a feeling
of tightness across the forehead, buzzng in the
s, or peculiar feeling about the eyes, may be
all the caution one gets, so it Is culpable care
lessness TO neglect even these slight signs
The remedy lies in stimulant, and the pref
erenceshould be given to whiskey. All the doc
tors of the country are agreed on this point
but are very careful to impress on their pa
tients the fact that pure whiskey alone must
be taken. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is the
purest on the market and can readily be OBJ
tanned at all drug stores. This preparation,
which is Endorsed by all the leading DOCTORS
This year adding to that fIst-class reputation
which it won during the epidemic of the
Grippe last year. There are many imitators
who say their whistles are 'just as good" Do
not be deceived. They are not. Duffys Pure
Malt is the only medicinal one.

A Huge DeYilfish.

Sunday while little boy was wan
dering on the beach at Island Cove he
was startled by seeing large and strange
looking object approaching the land
wash. The little fellow raced home,
stating that something came after him
out of the water. This was sufficient to
attract older persons to the beach, where
they found huge squid or cuttlefish
high and dry. Its extreme length was
thirty-two feet. the tentacles alone meas.
uring twenty-one feet. The body was
much larger than that Of an ordinary
horse, and the pelt three inches in thick
ness. 1t was cut up before being re.
moved. We believe that this is the
third cuttlefsh which has come to grief
in this manner in this bay within the
last fewyears, one having become strand
ed in Smiths sound, and another wa,
similarly unfortunate near Catalina.

that Mrs. John Robinson fetched to us

Hard Luck.

A Kansas newspaper says: "a Wash
ington county man played very sharp
trick upon neighbor last week. He
stole whole herd of cattle, 150 head,
sold them, pocketed the money and then
committed suicide. His victim has been
unable to think of any way of getting
even, and is very much disgusted."
