Syrup"

Here is an incident from the South
mississippi, written in April, 500,
just after the Grippe had visited that
country. g l am a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning of last
Winter l was on trip to the City
of Vicksburg, Miss. where I got we'll
drenched in shower of rain. 1
went home and was soon after seized
with a dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until / had
to seek relief. / consulted DIR. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to geta bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and 1 caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled me to do something. 1
got two bottles of German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taxing
much Of the second bottle, was
entirely clear Of the Cough that had
hung to me so long, the Grippe, and
all Its bad effects. I felt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since"

Wealth inside O Statue.

Pygnalion, the ancient artist, could
not be more overjoyed when his statue
became transformed into lovely woman,
than the heirs of the late Nine. Artaui,
who recently died in Paris, France, when
they discovered a considerable fortune
carefully hidden away in the interior OF
a common plaster of paris reproduction
of the famous Venus of Milo. The his
tory of the sudden find is curious and
entertaining. Nine. Artaud died with.
out making a will, and, as she had no
notary, her children and grandchildren
appealed to a financial adviser of the de.
ceased who used occasionally put her
money out in Stock Exchange specula-
tions. That the old lady had left fair
share of lucre was certain. and as not a
silver nor a bank note could be found
anywhere in her .ooms. the heirs came
to the natural conclusion that the financial
agent must have been intrusted by Nine.
Artaud with her money before she made
her exit from tins world. The agent de-
clared in the most positive manner that
he had received nothing in a long time
from Nine. Artaud, who, feeling her
end approaching, gave up Boufse specu
lations.
This did not satisfy the heirs, who
plumply accused the agent of having ap.
propriated what did not belong to him,
but as they bad no proofs against him.
they were unable to begin legal proceed
inGs. They accordingly set to work to
divide the furniture aud general belong
ings of he deceased between them. The
dining and salon chairs, tables and trap
pings were IN Empire style and worth
from $500 to $1,000, but as it would be
impossible to obtain more than half their
value, the discomfort among the heirs
increased. A lottery of the effects having
been originated, an old statue represent
ing the Goddess Of Love fell to one of
the daughters Of the deceased, who was
about to break it with yexatiop when one
of her relatives proposed to examine it
to sec if by any chance it were rare

covered ovct underneath with oil cloth,
and when the covering was removed ont

Horsemanshrp Of Mexican yaou.ro..

In the days when I was a cowboy in
Old Mexico, the vaqucros knew how
to ride. Those fellows who go round
with Wild West shows can't riAe q
little bit. See one of them lean out of
his saddle to pick up something on the
groundl He hooks his foot behind his
saddle anil can hardly reach his hat on
the ground as the horse lopes by. The
vaqueros l used to ride with could
pick up pin on the ground with the
horse at fan gallop. The rider would
hitch the spur on one foot in the sinch
of the horse, and the little bells on the
heel, falling into the rowels Of the
spur would hold the foot as firmly TO
the. sinch Us if it were tied there.
Then the rider could throw his whole
body out of the snidie and could
reach the very smallest object on the
ground. Nowadays the cowboys don't
seem 10 understand that trick. In
fact one of them told me once that
the only use of the little bells on the
spurs was to Jingle and add 10 the

said that the application of strong soap

caution in applying for fear of injuring

l.. o. Howard OF the Department of
Agriculture, writing some time ago in

"When dry spell came the leaves

of the season the bushes were green and

strong stream of water i found was q
most desirable thing; it blew the plant

shade trees; it made the little ants
which build their little mounds on my
lawn and in the cracks of my brick

"A Congressman's Cure for Warts.

Representative Culberson, of Texas,
Jne of tho brainiest lawyers in the
House, can descend from constitutional
argument to the discussion of trivial
things. This was shown yesterday,
when he informed friend of an infalli-
BILE cure for warts. "Open the wart until
1t bleeds," said Mr.. Culberson, clay a
grain of corn upon it and then feed the
corn to goose. After the goose has
eaten the corn the wart will disappear.
I have tried this remedy myself and it
has never failed" Mr.. Culberson was
very anxious that this recipe should not
be repeated TO the correspondents in the
press gallery, but the gentleman to
whom the advice was given thinks that
the Texas remedy is worthy of wide
