Is, . Life
Worth Livinq?

That depends upon the
Liver. If the Liver is
inactive the whole sys-
tenn is out of order-the
breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,
energy and hopefulness
gone, the spirit is de-
pressed, a heavy weight
exists after eating, with
general dependency and
the blues. The Liver is
the housekeeper of the
health; and a harmless,
simple remedy that acts
like Nature, does not
constipate afterwards or
require constant taking,
does not interfere with
business or pleasure dur
ing its use, makes Sim
mons Liver Regulator a
medical perfection.
I nave tested it's virtues personally, and
know that for Dyspepsia, B~iliousness and
Headache, it is tho best medi-
cine the world ever saw. Have tried forty
other remedies before Simmons Liver
and none of them gave more
than temporary relief, but the Regulator
not only relieved but cured.

Epicurcan Elephants.

An elephants digestive functions are
very rapid, and the animal, therefore,
requires daily large amount of fodder
six hundred pounds at least. In its
wild state the animal feeds heartily but
wastefully. 1t is careful in selecting
the few forest trees which it likes for
their bark or foliage. But it will tear
down branches and leave half of them
untouched. 1t will strip Off the bark
from other trees and throw away large
portion.
As it is nocturnal animal, it Sc
lects its trees by the sense of touch
and smell Its sense Of smell is so deli
cate that wild elephant can wind an
enemy at distance of one thousand
yards, and the nerves of its trunk are
so sensitive that the smallest substance
can be discovered and picked up by its
tiny proboscis.
An elephants palate is very delicate,
and the animal is whimsical in selecting
or rejecting morsels of food. Sir Sam
uel w. Baker tells an anecdote illustra-
tive OF the w.ims of tame elephant be-
longing to the police OF Dhubri:
This elephant was fed with rice and
plantains The stems of the plantains
were split and cut into transverse Sec
tions two feet in length. Three-quar-
ters Of pound of rice was placed within
each tube of plGntain stem. One day,
while the elephant was being fed, lady
offered the animal a small sweet biscuit.
It was taken in the trunk and almost
Immediately thrown on the ground.
The mahout or driver, thinking that
the elephant had behaved rudely,
picked up the biscuit and inserted it in
o parcel of rice within plantain stem.
This was placed in the elephants mouth,
and at the first crunch it showed its
disgust by splitting out the whole mess.
The small biscuit had disgusted the ami
NAL, and for several minutes it tried by
its inserted trunk to rake out every
atom from its tongue and throat.

Tea-Chest Lead.

One of the industries in connection
with the tea trade is the collection of
the lead with which tea-chests are lined.
China has been noted for many centuries
for purity of its lead, and this tea-chest
lead, as it is called, is regarded as the
finest in existence. There are many
uses for it; it is found very valuable in
making the best kind of solder. No ma
ohinery is employed in the production
of this sheet lead every sheet is made
by hand in the most primitive fashion.
A large brick is provided, the size Of
the sheet of lead to be made, and is
covered with two or three sheets of pa
per. On these the molten lead is
poured, and another brick is placed on
the top, which fattens the lead out to
the required size and thickness. The
sheets are soldered together to the size
OF the interior of the tea-chest the tea
is packed in, and the top sheet is fas-
tened in place. The workmen are very
expert, and they turn out an immense
number of sheets in the course of day,
and, where labor is so cheap, at price
much less than if the articles were pro-
duced by machinery. .

Children Running Wild.

-:It's a mistake" says physician, ito
let city children do too much of the
running wild business in their summer
outings. People have the idea that in
the country one may do anything or
eat anything with impunity. Laws for
healthful living operate as much under
the pines and by the sea as within the
city limits, but not many realize it.
Mothers often complain to me that they
bring their children back in the autumn
thinner than when they went away
They may do that and still have them
stronger, but many times children are
allowed to run too necessarily. Ittakes
q strong child to thrive on continuous
exercise, and city children are not used
to tramping up hill and down and over
rough roads and fields. Make them
stretch out under the trees or on the
river bank an hour every day, and more
if you can, and they'll gain by it,"

AN ECCENTRIC TEXAN.

Wanted to Be Buried Standing, with His
Rifle and Tobacco.
An eccentric character named Brit
Bailey came from Tennessee to Texas in
1880, says the Dallas News. While en-
route in company. with several others he
requested each man TO tell what he was
coming to Texas for. When oil were
through it came to his turn, and he
said
Il am going TO Texas to establish q
character. have not got any at home,
and am going to to try to establish
one in Texas"
He settled at Baileys prairie, and
soon after trouble commenced with the
Mexicans, and he participated in tho
battle OF Velasca. He carried home
with him cannon ball as relic Of this
fight.
When he came to die he requested to
be buried standing up six feet under the
earth, which would require a grave Of
more than twelve feet in depth, as he
was 6 feet 2 inches in height. He also
requested that there should be buried
with him his rifle, 100 rounds of ammu-
milton, his butcher-knife, two plugs Of
tobacco, one bottle Of whiskey, his dog
and the cannon ball from Velasca. All
this was done with the exception of the
dog
He died at home in 1888 on Bailey's
prairie, Brazolia County, and was buried
on Oyster Creek He was liked and re-
spected by all who knew him.

The ORNAMENT IN JUNE.-The
choicest gift in the power of June to
bestow is the summer solstice, which
occurs on the Goth, at 6 hours 16
minutes in the evening, as the sun
enters the sign of the Grab and as
Economical summer begins.
The moon quarters early in the
morning of the End of June, and the
following day is in conjunction with
Saturn. On the 9th there is con-
junction with Uranus.
The next conjunction is with Mars
on the l4th, followed five days later
by Jupiter and the waning crescent
being at their closest for the month.
Neptune's turn comes next.
On the oath Mercury and the
young moon hobnob together, and
on the 25th we have Venus in con-
junction.
Venus graces the month by ap-
pearing in her role of greatest bril-
liancy, She is still pursuing us as
we revolve about the sun, and as she
draws nearer her size increases. She
is, however, yielding to the strain of
the chain that binds her to the sun,
and before the month closes the
beautiful queen of the night will be
lost to us.
Mars is morning star, although he
rises a little after IL o'clock in the
evening and gets up earlier and ear
lier as the month advances. He is
growing larger quite perceptibly and
at the close of June will be four
timer the size he was when the year
began. In August, when he is in OPP
position, he will be a most glorious
object and we shall have his ruddy
face to gaze upon throughout the
night. Saturn is evening star. His
steady light, of slightly ruddy
tinge, makes him quite easily dis
tinguished, as he bears south about
o'clock and is about halfway be-
tween overhead an the horizon.
Jupiter is morning Star and rises
about o'clock. He is nearly at
the average distance from the earth.
but is gradually approaching us and
in consequence gaining in brilliancy
and size.-N. Y. Times.

LAW NOT OBEYED.

The Statesman found no indigna-
tion in our columns, over Mayor
McSherry's action as to the returns
in the recent municipal election.
That is simply one of the means of
excusing an illegal act. We gave
the law as it was enacted, and exists
to-day. The question submitted in
our article embraced only the prin-
ciple as to whether the law should
be enforced, or whether the self as
sertion of any man (be McSherry
democrat or republican, can abro-
gate and nullify 1t. If he can, then
the four dollars day that the peo-
pie pay to legislators to enact laws,
had better be saved, and McSherry
be made grand mogul for the time
being, with the Statesman men as
apron holders for the poll books and
ballots, that are not counted under
the law, and especially the ballots
that are not recounted when the law
says that upon the demand of a can
didate they shall be recouated. Now,
Mr.. Statesman, there is no necessity
for you belittling yourselves, but we
challenge you to print the law as to
returns from elections and show that
we have not stated the truth. Come
now, toe the scratch. PRINT 1t Ger
bGtinl dd literatim. Show the peo-
pie which of us mean to mislead and
are misleading them. Mr.. HutzIer
nor any candidate should be put to
the expense of a contest. The State
and its officers should enforce the
law, and especially the cleo
ton law should be equal between
parties and those who violate it
should be brought to justice and
punished. Do you suppose the
courts will ignore the law? If so,
you are mistaken. If this Austria
liam election law is to be engrafted
on our system of civil government,
then enforce it in every particular
or say nothing about imaginary force
bills which to say the, least means
simply the enforcement of law, Civ
ing unto each man under the law, his
