Its extraordinary curative power mani
tests itself almost Immediately after 1T is

who have taken it is uniform and positive.
They say they can feel the effect OF every

the nervous system to every organ and
tissue of the body. 1t makes but little diff

Queen Elizabeth and Mary.

In 1860 Queen Elizabeth issued procla-
nation wherein she declared to her sub
jects that she had never gained anything
upon her coinages; neither had she coined
any base money and that she was deter
mined to recover the 'honor and reputa-
ton of the singular wealth that this realm
was wont to have above all Others" Ac-
cordingly the Tower mint was commits
stoned to receive base money, and in IL
months about ESQ, 600 current value was
coined into money of proper weight and
standard.
The fumes from melting these base coins
were so poisonous that many of the work
men fell ill. The medical authorities of
that day prescribed a potion from dead
mans skull rs u certain remedy. Accord
ingly an official warrant procured some OF
these strange cups from London bridge,
and the draft was administered. 1t is said
to have afforded temporary relief, but
many died, whether because the skulls
were traitorous in death as well as in life
history does not relate.
About this time new rode of coming
by means of the mill ard the screw press
was introduced from France by one Eloye
Mestrell. The methad was approved by the
queen and her council Indeed it has been
said that the first millcd coin was struck
in the Tower by her own royal hand
However that may be, the corporation OF
moncyers bitterly opposed the scheme, and
the Frenchman being detected in making
milled money outside the Tower, was
summarily hanged and quartered and his
machinery abandoned. -Gentleman's Mag

ment of its amusement favorites!

The Sigh of a Business Woman For Mis-

spent Time For Farewells.
"If I could only have the minutes which
my neighbor wastes in saying goodby to
me on the front steps, l should be able to
accomplish great deal more than 1 do
now," sighed business woman as she
bowed a friend out of sight and sighed in
relief to see her departing
Now that neighbor is one of the dearest
women in the world, and l have warm
affection for her, but / must confess that
she is a nuisance at times for she has no
sense of the value of time, and she wastes
many minutes with prodigality that
breaks my heart. 1 can't offend her by
telling her that 1 am too busy to listen to
her chatter of Il thousand and one interest
ing things, to be sure, but things which
might as well wait until some more sea-
sonable time, nor can work while she is
here, and the consequence is that with
nay mind half on my work, half on what
she is talking about, am not so cordial
as she would like me to be, nor do l get
the best of her conversation.
Sometimes l have threatened in the bo-
som of my family to tack up Il sign on my
door after the fashion of the country editor,
which newspaper funny men have made
familiar to every one, and announce to my
callers that This is my busy day, but
should amend it by saying that all days
from n. IN. to p. m. are my busy days.
l haven't dared as yet to put my threat in
to execution, but some day shall do SO
whether people like it or not.

the hide the latter, tightly stretched upon
a suitable frame, is rubbed with mixture
consisting of 1000 parts glycerin of 26B,
2 parts salicylic acid, 2parts picric acid and
20 parts boric acid. Before the hide is alb
solutely dry it is placed in a room which
the rays of the sun do not penetrate, and
it is saturated with q solution of bichro-

there is applied to its surface an alcoholic
solution of tortoise shell, transparent
aspect being thus obtained, and the leath
