No mystery about it. When the Shakers Of
fered some time g to give way a bottle of
their Digestive Cordial to any one who might
call at their New York Office, there was a great
rush and a great many people thought they
we're crazy. n"
Subsequent events prove it to have been q
very clever advertising transaction, for al.
though they gave way thousands of bottles, it
was in the end profitable; nearly every one
that took o free bottle came back for more and
paid for it with pleasure, saying that they had
derived better results from its use than from
any other medicine they had ever used.
There is nothing 30 uniformly successful in
treatment of stomach troubles as tho Shaker
Digestive Cordial, and what is better than all,
it relieves at once.

Dropping Their G's.

The best bred men in England have
the habit of habitually dropping their
"s's" in words ending in "ing," such
as going, running, walking, etc.
Some Of the younger generation of
America are Mortified when they hear
this thing done by older people and set
1t down as o mark of ignorance.
Those of them who have heard the
eminent Dean Hole Of England In his
lectures are now surprised to find that
he invariably drops his "g's, and they
are looking up his authority for it. His
authority is simply common usage
among the university bred men Of Eng
land.
1t would always be done by dean of
Christchuroh or o master Of Trinity,
who must be pretty we'll educated, bet
ter educated even than young American
girls that guard their "g's" and frown
on the old folk for dropping them.
Now that Dean Hole is OH record here

vulgarians the same habit. Town Top,

Anton Rubinstein Is quoted thus in
reference to women artists:
II think ladies ought never to study
music as an art. At least, they ought
not to take up the time Of teachers who
are able to teach and make true artists.
And will tell you why. There is no
question but there are 20 musical ladies
to one musical man. and my own expe-
ricnce is that they learn more quickly,
have more poetry, and, in fact, are more
diligent pupils than men. But what is
tho invariable result2 When a young
lady has become perfect artist, some
handsome mdstache comes along, and
she chooses the handsome mustaohe In
preference to art"
