Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener-
ally needed in Spring, when the languid

is torpid and sluggish and the need of a

use of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.

A Good Word.

Joe was youth of such exceeding
popularity with his uncles and aunts
that his mother was compelled to call
halt on her too-indulgent brothers
and sisters, who. she claimed, with JUS
tice, were spelling the youngster with
their reckless generosity and rendering
him needless of the value of property.
"Why. do you know" she said to one
of the too-indulgent aunts, to whom
she was explaining her trouble, "the
little rascal received fifty presents this
very Christmas"
"Oh, mammal" exclaimed the young
person in question, more than that. 1
received sixty-two presents"
swell, knew it was a great many"
sighed his mother, "but I wanted to
keep on the safe side. tried not to ex-
aggerate."
''No." demonstrated Master Joe, in
patronizing tone; "but you should try
not to exsmallerate, either."-Harper's
Magazine.

CHRISTMAS.
Facts Which Show That This Holiday Is
Christ's Rirthday.

Is to-day the veritable anniversary Of
the birth of Jesus of Nazareth? 1t is
a question often asked, but never quite
satisfactorily answered. Reverent pre-
disposition can always find sufficient
evidence to answer yes, while it is to be
noted that the question of itself i'm
plies a degree of religious skepticism.
Men have even stood in pulpits with
little enough to do to devote an hours
oratory to the disproof of it. 1t is quite
as certain that Jesus was born on the
25th of December as that Augustus,
the emperor under whom he was born,
was born in the siXty-third year before
him, or that Tiberius, the emperor
under whom he died, came into the
world forty-two years, one month and
nine days before him. That is to say, it
is the decent habit of the world to ac-
cept what testimony, tradition and his
tory have to offer concerning the birth
days of the great and Herewith be con-
tent.
It is certain that as early as the year
$50 the date we now celebrate was uni
versally recognized among Christians
without question as their Saviour's
natal day. That fact alone is all-suf-
ficient for succeeding generations. IF
all records and illusions to the date of
the birth of George Washington were
to be blotted from all American writ
ings earlier than 1900 it would be suf-
ficient for posterity that at the begin
ming of the twentieth century the 22d
of February was universally recognized.
and that the day was observed as legal
holiday. This is the best foundation
we have for the authenticity of Decem-
Der 25 as the birthday of Jesus.
In the year 14O st. Justin Martyr, the
first great Christian apologist, said that
the best record extant of the birthday
of Christ was to be found in the archives
at Rome. Addressing the emperor and
Roman senate, he said: There is GER
tain village in the land of Judea, dis
tant thirty-five stadia from Jerusalem,
in which Christ Jesus was born, as we
can learn from the enrollments COM
pleted under Cyrenius, your first pro-
curator in Jerusalem" In the year zoo
Tertullian said the same thing: Ell
nally, concerning the census enrolment
of Augustus, which the Roman archives
preserve as faithful witness of the
Lords nativity" Any man in the nine
teenth century who wants more ex-
plicit proof of matter that is not of
great vital moment anyway must have
in his mind private scheme in which
the rest of the world can have no pos
sible interest.-Detroit Evening News.

She had lain for six months in the big
white bed in one Of the upper rooms of
Michigan avenue house. Her hus-
band was rich; they were both young
and they loved each other. One month
ago the family physician had taken the
husband aside and broken the news to

The evening wore slowly on into the

quietly into his room.

The Indian Cunning.

That Indians are proverbially shrewd
and cunning race is an accepted fact.
Unfortunately their shrewdness and clev.
erness has been devoted almost entirely
to the destruction of their enemies and tc
the task of protecting themselves.
This great idea of self preservation,
however, has been the cause of their
studying and knowing nature perfectly,
not only that they might understand the
best way to pursue their foes or to take
advantage of any trifling irregularity of
the earths surface that might afford them
a hiding place, but also to the study of
herbs, roots and barks which they might
use in cases of sickness. Centuries of the
use Of such ingredients have made them
masters of the art of healing and now
that today there can be bought at any
drug store the famous Kickapoo Indian
Remedies, the most prominent of which
is the indian Sagwa for the cure of all
diseases resulting from disordered state
of the stomach, liver, kidneys or blood
they have given to the white man that
which will forever perpetuate the name
OF the Kickapoo Indian tribe.
The Kiokapoo Indians are located at
their village near Fort Allen Park where
they may be seen daily. Their medicine
men may be consulted and will give their
advice free of charge.
