The widow of an English army officer
went to the pension Office for the purpose
OF drawing her pension. She presented the
usual certificate of the clergyman of her
village to the effect that she was still alive.
"This certificate is not right" said the
official.
What is the matter with itS"
Because it bears the date July 81, and
your pension was due July 15"
What kind of a certificate do you want?''
I'VE must have certificate that you
were alive on the 18th day of July. OF
what use is this one that says you were
alive on the 21st of July?"

than straw hats, and believe it. Shortly
after my interview with the halter met a
friend Of mine, upon whose head was
perched one of the jaunty yachting caps.
1t made him look like an Admiral Walker.
said:
"You look like sailor with that cap.

"Have you ever been on the ocean or on

By NJ. v. MOORE.

You needn't s'pose dat all de trut
Is done up in yo' thinkin;
As well expect to dry de sea
BY des yo' little drinkin.
Dat friend is bes' what helps you las,
An IFS you DER de ditch;
Dat hoss won't do to trus' what kicks
When comes de tightes' hitch.
Don't sing yo' psalms to stubborn mules,
Nor to de balky mare;
Nor don't you trus' yo'self too much
To folks who wants to dare.
Dat man what wants to brace de lie
Can allus fin de prop;
De house don't git so high but what
Some folks can see de top.

INFANTS scALD HEAD.

This is really form OF eczema, coming
upon the scalp Of the newborn babe, and
under ordinary treatment 1t Is often many
months before 1t Is completely eradicated.
Its management should be, at first,
thorough cleaning of the scalp with pure
white soap and warm water. Then CON-
FORT POWDER should be rubbed into the
skin several times daily. Keep the scalp
clean. but use as little water as possible after
the first cleaning, relying upon the dry Pow
der to bring the scalp into natural cendi-
ton.
No Dosing will be found necessary IL CON-
FORT POWDER Is used. 1t Is soothing, cool
ing. healing, cleanly and effective.

Rapid Transit.

Old Bob Keyworth and Gilhooly were
discussing scientific topics few days ago.
Light travels at the rate of 10000 miles
a minute" remarked Gilhooly.
'I know better. When | was boy at
school / remember very well that the
teacher told me light Travelled at the rate
of 600 miles a minute, and know he was
not the kind of a man to tell lie about
thing of that kind"
He didn't tell lie. At that time, forty
or fifty years ago, when travelling faciIities
were slow, 5000 miles minute vas very
last time, but in these days of rapiG transit
SO,OOO miles a minute is nothing

o. woman, despairing and wretched,
Dreading, yet longing, to die,
Hear the glad chorus that rises,
Filling the dome Of the sky:

"Sisters, be gil there's help to be had;
No longer be miserable, gloomy and sad;
Lost health regain,' rings out the refrain,l
"Poor creatures, be healthy aud happy again"
How? BY taking DR.. Perce's Favorite Pre-.
scriptiop, the worlds greatest remedy for all
kinds of diseases peculiar to women. 1t brings
back tone and vlgor to the system weakened by
those distressing complaints known only to
women, which make life such burden. 1t re-
stores relaxed organs to a normal condition. It
fortifes the system against the approach of dis
eases which often terminate in untold misery, if
not in death-which is preferable to the pain and
torment of living, in many instances. Itis the
great gift of scientific skill and research to wom-
