equalize power and keep the machinery
going with a steady even motion. With
out it the machinery would wrench itself
out of shape. 1t is the same way with the
machinery of the human body it needs
to go on steadily and regularly to be in
good health-1ot by fits and starts. The
sudden wrenching medicines which peo-
pie sometimes take to overcome consti-
patton, give violent strain to the intes-
tines which weakens them, so that the
costiveness is afterwards worse than be-
fore.
What costive people need is natural
laxative like Dr.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
which are powerful without being vio-
lent. They move the bowels gradually
and comfortably but surely. You can
regulate the dose = one, two or three
" Pellets exactly as you need. They
strengthen the intestines to do their own
work, so that after their movements have
become regular they keep on naturally
Of themselves.
The " Pleasant Pellets gently stimu-
late and invigorate the liver to throw off
biliousness; and tone up the stomach to
secrete the digestive juices, and over
come dyspepsia. The entire digestive,
OF alimentary, tract is put in motion in
the regular steady way of nature and
health. This is what makes the "Pleas-
ant Pellets so immensely superior to
the numerous purging pills which wrench

A GIRL SAVES A SHIPS CREW

Troy Times: Margaret Nielsen is
the 1S-year-old daughter of Capt
Nielsen of the Norwegian bark Julie.
which sailed on April l from Ninai
Bridge, Wales, for Nova Scotia, Mar
garet begged to accompany her father;
his consent was readily secured, and
her pets, handsome water spaniel, a
big black cat and half dozen rabbits,
were, of course. allowed to accompany
her. She wouldn't have sailed without
them. For the first week the Julie had
good sailing winds, but no particu
larry rough water was experienced, and
the bark made fair Roadway. Then
came a succession of westerly gales,
and after pounding about al the mercy
of the winds the vessel sprung leak.
All who were not needed in he man
agement of the boat were put at the
pumps.
The captains daughter herself took
her turn at the windmill pump, and
with words of encouragement cheered
the men at the hand pumps Nearly
every moment the huge waves broke
over the vessel, drenching the men at
their work The water was gaining on
them, and it seemed evident that in a
short time they must take to the boats
and trust in providence for deliver
ance During those trying hours the
captains daughter sung cheerily. She
has a good voice, high and clear, and
she seemed to know just what songs
would put most heart into the Norwe-
gian sailors She sang the sagas which
recount the deeds of valor of the flaxen-
haired race, and the men were inspired
to renewed efforts. They even smiled
as they worked at the heart breaking
pumps. The bravery and confidence OF
the captains daughter were contagious
But in spite of all their efforts it was
discovered on April 10 that the pumps
were not keeping pace win the inflow
ing water. With feet of it in the
hold and the tide rapidly rising the
abandonment of the bark was newt
able. The Norwegian bark Oscar ii.
fell in with the Julie and took off the
captain, the crew and the brave girl
who also took with her the dog and the
big black cat, although the rabbits
were left behind, and all hands were
brought to New York Saturday, the
men gratefully acknowledging that
they owe their lives to the dauntless
young woman.

FOUND HoMER's TOMB.
Presumed 1t Was the Poets Skeleton,
as an Inkstand Was There.

Does anybody know that the tomb Of
Homer have only recently learned
the fact--was discovered in the year
ITO, or Whereabouts, in the island OF
Mo? The fortunate discoverer was a
certain Count de Grunn, a Dutch officer
The island of Mo was formerly called
los, and, in the life of Homer attrib-
uted to HerOdotus the poet is said to
have died and to have been buried Oh
the island of los,
The Count de Grunn, who was in ths
Russian service, knew this story, and
on landing on los proceeded to search
for the long lost sepulchre.
He was so fortunate as to find very
fine tomb, feet long, broad and II
high. There was an inscription upon
1t, probably" says my authority
that mentioned by Herodotus,' but he
does not reproduce that inscription.
OF course he concluded without
further bother that this must be the
tomb he wanted.
Within, the skeleton of the poet he
assumed that it must be the skeleton OF
the poet--was found in a sitting pos
ture, but the bones crumbled to dust OIL
exposure to the air. There was knife
of flint found in the tomb. and, which
places the matter beyond all reasonable
doubt, a marble inkstand was found
besides the poets hand ready for use.
Some writing paper and a packet OF
quill pens ought to have been found as
well, just to make the thing complete,
However, what more was wanted?
OF course no poet could lie or sit
comfortably If he were buried without
his inkstand; of course, also, none but
a poet in those days wanted an ink.
Standard this consideration clinches
the business. The count searched, but
in vain, which is pity, for the tomb
of Homer's mother.
What has become of Homer's tomb?
Why do not our antiquaries discover
this interesting monument, marble
stand and all?
This note illustrates the curiously
uncritical state of mind with which
things archaeological were approached
in the last century. Queen.

WHEN A DOCTOR is NOT NEAR.

1t Is very often the case that at just
the time one needs medical man it is
impossible to get him. A sick person
may take a chill after the doctor has
paid his call. Warm the patient at
once. Fill strong bottles with hot
water, placing them under the knees
at the feet, under the armpits. Give
stimulants and cover with blankets.
After he warns up, do not sweat him
but gradually remove the extra cover
ing. Be sure to keep an even tempera-
ture in the sickroom. This Is most
important at night and in the small
hours of the morning. Always have
hot water available in sickness OF any
kind. Anyone with the average in
telligence can keep track OF the pulse
temperature, and respiration, 50 that
in case Of Paintings or sinking spells
he may know when to give stimulants
A bottle Of brandy or good whisky, q
rubber bag for hot water. and can OF
ground mustard are the three first
requisites for the family medicine
closet. Always be prepared for emer.
gencies.
