ON THE SAFE SIDE.

Everybody knows this is a good place
to be, but everybody does not take
measures to be there. An efficient pre-
ventative places us on the safe side OF
incipient disease, and there is no one
more reliable than Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters in cases where the kidneys are
inactive, which is bue the preliminary
to various destructive maladies, which
disregarded have a fatal termination.
Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy, oede,
ma, are but the outgrowths of neglected
inaction of the kidneys and bladder.
They should be checked at the outset
with bitters, which will prevent their
progress by arousing the renal organs
to activity, and thus place those who
resort to this saving medicine on the
safe side. This preservative of safety
also conquers constipation, liver COM
plant, malarial fever, nervousness and
dyspepsia.

Recovered His Memory in Old Age,

Authentic instances of old people
who have recovered lost sight, hearing
or speech, or who have grown a third
set of teeth or supplementary crop
of hair are not uncommon. But cases
in which perfect memory has been re-
gained after being impaired almost to
the verge of extinction by paralytic
shock are rare. This, however, has
happened to William McEntee, an old
man of eighty-four, residing on North
Twenty-eighth street. During the
recent storm he insisted upon taking
his daily walk, and in consequence
was laid up with severe cold. While
sitting in his arm chair after his re.
covery, day or two since, he found
himself humming an air which he had
not heard since he was boy in the
Emerald Isle. Then he began to tell
o story which the old song recalled,
and to the amazement OF his family he
went on to recite incidents and events
not only CT long ago, but Of more re-
cent dates, OF which before his brief
illness he had no recollection. -Phila-

The Pikeman and His Weapon.

The pikeman was covered with de-
fensive armor, an iron headpiece, iron
"back and breast" and "tasses," a
kind of iron apron protecting him
from waist to knee. He carried pike
sixteen feet long, with an ashen shaft,
an iron head, and blunt iron spike
at the butt end, whereby to fix it in
the ground; and, besides the pike, q
rspier.
The pike, from its great length,
was a wespan which required deft
handling in order to be of effective
use, aud, as may be imagined, was
excessively showy on parade. The
modern lance exercise is pretty
sight enough, but the old pike exer-
cise,. perfectly executed by large
bod Y of men, must have been superb.
We are not surprised, therefore, to
find that the postures, or instructions,
for this exercise are extravagantlu
minute.
To give one example, at the close OF
the instruction on the word "Order
your pikes," we find after mass of
complicated details the folio wing con-
clusion: "You place the but end Of
your pike by the outside of your right
foot, your right hand holding it even
with your eye, and your thumb right
up; then, your left arm being set
akimbo by your side, you shall stand
with full body in a comely posture. "
