A well known physician once told a
patient, who he suspected was receiving
too many calls from solicitous friends,
to make stroke with a pencil on a piece
of paper every time he was asked, How
are you today"
The result for one day was just "a
strokes, and the physician Immediately
gave strict orders that no visitor should
be permitted to enter the sickroom un.
til further notice, remarking to the
nurse that if his patient must be wor-
ried to death there was at least no rea-
son why it should be done in such an
unscientifc manner.
Only those who have suffered serious
illness know how trying it is to be re-
quired to answer again and again the
same question, asked by one well mean
ing individual after another. Itwould
matter less if visitors contented them
selves with asking just the one question,
but they do not, and the minute details
of ones ailments become peculiarly de-
pressing after few repetitions.
Many people forget that rest and quiet
are often invaluable agents in securing
restoration to health

During the Prince of Wales tour
through Canada | had attributed the
strange conduct of the ladies to an eX
cess of loyalty. As soon as the prince
had left a hotel they would rush into
his rooms, seize all sorts of articles,
from furniture button to a soiled
towel, as souvenirs, and even bottle up
the water with which he had just wash
ed his face" writes Stephen Fiske in
The Ladies' Home Journal. But in
the United States the women We're
equally curious and sycophantic. The
luggage of the royal party was carried
in small leather trunks-a trunk for ev-
cry suit of clothes-and whenever the
train stopped the crowds would beg that
some of these trunks might be handed
out, and women would fondle and kiss
them. | need not say that the trainmen
were never too particular as to whose
luggage was subjected to this alteration,
my own portmanteau kissed by mistake,
Before the prince arrived at Richmond
his room at the Ballard House was en-
tered by the ladies, and the pillowslips
and white cOverlet were so soiled by
the pressure of hundreds of fingers that
they had to be twice changed by the
chambermaids. When he attended
church on Sunday, the whole congrega-
ton rose as he departed and climbed
upon the seats to get a better view OF

Disease makes a man Just as helpless
as if he were tied with ropes. Weary
iassitude makes his muscles useless-slug
gish circulation of impure blood fills his
brain with useless clogging matter. Eff
fort is distasteful and brings scant results.
The trouble usually starts with the diges-
ton. Too much brain work takes needed
blood from stomach to head and retards
the stomach's work. The body is not
fed. The nerves rebel. Sleep becomes
a stranger. Loss of appetite is followed
by loss of hesh-and all for the want OF
the right medicine at the right time. DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is for
the man who is losing flesh and vitality.
It is for the man whose digestion needs
help and whose nerves and brain are
overworked. 1t is the greatest of all
tonics. No matter what seems to be your
trouble, the Golden Medical Discovery"
will cure it. 1t cures by making the
blood pure, rich and plenty, and by fur
nishing food for nerves and brain. Moth
ing has ever been found to equal it, but
dishonest druggists sometimes try to
make you believe that something more
profitable to them is lust as good" Do
not be deceived. Get what you ask for.
Of maladies that unfit the sufferer for either the
duties pleasures of life. Sick and bilious head
aches and multitude of other ills are due to
stipation. DR.. Pierces Pleasant Pellets cure con-
siipation promptly and permanently. Druggists
sell them. NothiNg else is Just the same"
