cooking and eating the mischief lies. The

sauntered oarelessly into one of the SUI
perior courts the other day He eyed the
judge through his glasses and sized up all
the attorneys. Then he walked up to tho
bar and poured out glass of ice water.
The judge, who is nervous and testy,
had observed the young man and frowned
down on the glued hair and glasses. When
the young man boldly walked up to the
bar and took glass of ice water, the judge
fairly boiled with Indignation at such te-
mcrity, amounting almost to contempt.
The young man was just raising the glass
to his lips when the judge roared:
"That water, sir is for attorneys and
other officers Of the COURT
The glass almost dropped from his hand,
he started violently, turned red, then
placed the glass on the table and walked
out of the court. The judge chuckled.
Half an hour later the young man entered
Tho courtroom again with roll of parch-
ment in his hand. The judge glared at
him savagely, but he never finched Fl

A.Disastrous Failure.

Financial commissions which disturb
the equilibrium of the business world are
productive or far less mischief than the
failure Of the kidneys to perform the of.
flee assigned to them by nature. When
these organs become inactive the circula-
ton acquires impurities which bring on
dropsy, diabetes. Bright's disease, gravel,
catarrh of the bladder and other maladies.
To impart to the kidneys and bladder
healthful impetus, very different from the
excitement produced by an unmedicated
alcoholic stimulant, use Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the finest diuretic in ex-
istence. This excellent remedy for in
activity of the kidneys is also of the
greatest service in malarial, dyspeptic,
bilious and rheumatic troubles, and has
received the unqualified sanction of en-
inent physicians. The nervous, the el-
derby and infrm and convalescents de-
rive unspeakable benefit from its use.
Use it with persistence and at fixed in
tervals, and anticipate with confidence
the happiest results.

In HIS very able Sunday evening
sermon Rev. d. P. Birnie touched
a keynote in the higher criticism
when he spoke most graphically Of
the downfall of one Of the Biblical
cities recently uncovered near the
Suez canal. This place was the seat
of learning and culture in its day
and was even noted for its magni-
ficent places OF worship, the en-
frances to which were marked by
the obelisks now exhibited in var
ious portions of the world. With
all its devotion to letters and the
forms of church, the wickedness
which flourished under cover ac'
complished the ruin of the careless,
needless and forgetful. Very in
teresting also were remarks on an
other Egyptian city recently found
beneath the sands borne from the
desert. Its structural character is
a resurrected witness of one of the
prosecutions of the Children Of Is
rael. The bricks show plenty o.
straw, then but a little, and finally
none at all.
