Camphor For His Wife.

"There was a farmer up home," he said, "who used to have his occasional spree Every one knew his failing, and neither of the druggists in town would sell him drop. One day he brought a quart bottle into one of the apothecary shops, with two or three big Jumps of gum camphor In the bottom. He told the druggist that his wife wanted her camphor bottle filled with alcohol. The druggist filled 1t without suspecting any thing. In a week the old man came again, and in little while the third time. Finally the druggist discovered that the gum oamphor' was milky quartz, picked up in the fields, and that the farmer had poured camphor over the outside of the bottle until enough had orystallized there to look natural and smell right. The quartz didn't hurt the alcohol for drinking purposes. "-Time and the Hour.

Changes In Cave Dwelling Animals.

manages In CAVe DWell1nK Animals
 ''The influence of environment upon organisms is nowhere more striking" :" says Science, "than in the case of ami mals which find themselves aooiden- tally lost in caves and which succeed in accustoming themselves to the situa- tion ill spite of it's difficulties M. Ar. mand Wire gives some notes on his ob- servations in the Comptes Rondus. The principal difference in the situation consists ill the absence of light and in the rarity of animal prey. The eye al- ways becomes atrophied to a degree which varies with the species and also with the individual. There is some- times difference between the two eyes of single individual. The eyes are to a certain extent replaced by other or gans of sense; the antennR of the oampodes become, in some individuals, twice as long as usual, and sometimes longer than the entire body. The tactile hairs with which the body is covered obtain an exaggerated development, and in the crustaoeans sometimes even in wade the ocular globe. Hearing does not seem to be accentuated, but the sense of smell is very acute, and a bit of tainted flesh becomes invaded in a very few minutes with large colony of animals The organs of digestion become very ! considerably modified in those species which are naturally oarnivorous, and in two staphylins the mandibles were found to be completely atrophied. Every animal is more or less completely de- augmented, but those which had no trace of color remaining began to have numerous little black spots disseminated over the whole body after they had been kept for month in the light, and these spots were particularly abundant in those parts (antenne and olaws) which had been accidentally lost and were in course of restoration"

There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmers Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy, fultils every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inabil- ity to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root Is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing eases. If you need medicine you should have the best. Sold by drugg' ,ts, price fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bot tie and pamphlet both sent free by mail.
