WISE WORDS.


Posterity is a pack horse, svsr
ready to be loaded.
II you set up for a GROWER you
can always be busy.
The right kiud of smile never
hurts prayer meeting.
Every man is fercein his thoughts
and mild in his actions.
Bread is the staff of life, and pie
is the stumbling block.
Kindness has resistless charms.
All things else but weakly move.
The man who loves his nsighbor
as himself never keeps bulldog.
The greatest truths are the sim.
plest; so, likewise, are the greatest
men.
A man cannot appreciate clean
conscience until after he has guilty
one.
It is so easy to resolve TO be more
patient with the faults of children
when they are sound asleep in bed
The young man who wants to be
a social favorite should let it be
rumored about that he is looking
for wife.
There is so much of the fool in
every man that it is pretty apt tc
crop out in some way. You laugh
at another mans folly and he laughs
at yours.

DUEL TO THE DEATH
Between an Old Gray Rat and a
Sleepy Pigeon.
From the Boston Herald.

Sleepy Pigeon.
From the Boston Herald
Before the sun had begun to thaw the
frozen streets pigeon fluttered down from
the top Of the federal building and began
to search for the seeds and crumbs which
chance had scattered.
All day she tracked tho muddy stretch of
Post-office square, of alter and Devonshre
aud Milk streets, and when night was fall
ing tired and foOtsore she few back to the
lofty granite coping where she has always
slept. She nestled her head in the warm
feathers on her breast and dreamed of days
when leaky corn wagons passed through
the city streets, and when the hay market
made her ancestors fat.
But the pestilence which walketh in
darkness was astir.
Between the floors of the federal build
ing, in his nest of rags and string. a great
gray rat had slept all day. When dark
ness had come, and the upper corridors had
ceased to echo the passing footsteps, he
crept out in search OF food.
In Commissioner Hallet's office he found
bit of bread. In the law library was an
apple core. But the two together were
hardly enough to more than vhet his appe-
tite.
AS he crept, Independent of doors and
fastenings, behind the plastering and be-
tween partitions, he found himself at a
window opening, on the granite coping.
Some one had left the window open a bit
and the rat crept out.
Two feet to the right of him was the
sleeping pigeon. The rat eyed the ball Of
blue feathers closely and silently. He
crept nearer and nearer, and he hest; ated.
1t looked formidable, but he was hungry.
Finally. with one quick snap, he sunk his
teeth into the birds neck.
With pitiful little squeak she spread
her wings and tried to fly.
The rats weight bore her down. but her
wings lifted her enough TO raise her from
the coping and to carry her over its edge,
The rodent kept gnawing at her throat.
He had sunk his teeth 30 deeply that he was
carried out into the air by the bird.
Eighty feet above the pavement the
wings futtered a moment in the effort to
support both bodies. At the hight Of the
second story the rat squealed loudly and let
go. He struck the pavement heavily,
crawled little way and lay still.
The bird came down gently as she had
lived. The coroner. in the person of col
lector Of the night mail, viewed both bodies
at O'Clock a. m.

disease.
Notice the distinction.
For instance: Pills and purgatives
which act quickly upon the bowels irri-
tate and destroy the mucous coats of the
stomach and bowels. A continued use of
such remedies produces chronic infam-
nation of the stomach and bowels. The
use of the genuine imported Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt is, therefore, highly recon-
mended because its action is due solely to
its constitutional solvent and stimulating
properties, without irritating the stom-
ach. Be sure, however, to obtain the
genuine imported article.

Bright Eyes.

Engravers, designers and workers on
fine embroidery are apt to be troubled
with congestion Of the cornea of the
eve and inflamed lids. Generally this
docs not interfere materially with their
power of vision, but it gives them q
most unpleasant expression.
An old engravcr told a writer his eN-
periencc with his eyes and how he cured
them. Occasionally" he said, my
eyes would become so inhamed that l
could not use them. Then tried ap-
plications of cold tea leaves, extracts of
witch hazel and some times went to a
physician ard had my eyes leeched. If
| went to sleep with tea leaves on my
ewes the leaves would become dry, act
as poultice and make my eyes worse.
Leeching, while affording a temporary
relief, increased the tendency of conges-
ton. Witch hazel was the best rene
dv. but often would afford no relief
whatever Nearly every engraver in
our large establishment was afflicted as
/ was, some of them losing three weeks
work in a year. Some went to eminent
oculists, others remained in darkened
rooms for days at time.
FINALLY, about five years ago, one Of
our engravers went to leading New
York oculist. paid him So and received
prescription which cost him five cents
to have druggist put up. 1t cured his
ewes like magic and he told us about it.
We all laughed, for we had grown tired
of hearing about remedies and had no
faith. The prescription called for
saturated solution of boracic acid or
what we call powdered borax.' For
five cents you can buy enough at a
druggists to last you for months. Put
heaping teaspoonful in an ordinary
tumbler of pure water and let it thor
oughly dissolve. Then apply to the
eyes with the fingers; never use q
sponge or cloth. Let it dry on the eyes.
Use it first before retiring and after ris-
ing or at any other time.
II was induced to try it and have
used it freely, sometimes four or five
times day, for four years. 1t is no
e1aggeration to say it acts like magic.
| have no further trouble with congest-
ed eyes and haven't lost q day from
work in four years. My daughters and
their young lady companions use it be-
fore going to parties and after their re-
turn, and their eyes sparkle. The bor-
ak is mild astringent, contracts the
congested blood vessels and sends the
blood into its natural channels
