health and strength.
The corner stones Of good health are complete
digestion. sound sleep. pure blood and perfectly
nourished nervous system.
The wonderful success of Paine's celery compound
in making people well and keeping them 50 has
always been accounted for by physicians by Its e1-
traordinary power of nourishing and regulating all
Of these functions.
Ii Is not strange that so many unscientihc RENE
dies do permanent good when they disregard
this close interlependence Of the nerves and the
organs Of digestion and circulation. and attend to
but derang part at the expense of all the rest
The only possible way that real lasting gain In

blood. better nourished nerves and tissues. more
refreshing sleep and economy in the expenditure
Of nerve force.

A Little Alligator's Ronmfurs.
From the New York Herald.


d. T. Wynne. a Irvine merchant Of New
York, returned to his home In Lenox road.
Flatbush. Monday from trip through the
south. He brought home a dozen allisa-
tors. ranging in size from one to three ard
half feet. AS he was transferring them
to tank one Of the alilgators escaped ard
scuttled out on the stoop and to the street
Aligators are rare In Flatbush, and at
$50 o'clock. when the new arrival made his
appearance. there were many persons In
the street. They crowded around the aIli-
gator. to whom the dusty thoroughfare
proved hard road to travel. Policeman
Faiion ran for meal sack. which he threw
over the visitor. The alligator was not
to be held 30 easily. He glided out Of the
sack every time that Fallou threw Il At
his head. The policeman was about to
use his club on the saurians head when
Mr.. Wynne stepped In to prevent him
Soon the alligator became tired OF IN
yesdgaion and M. Wynne by . dexterous
use OF the meal sack captured him
The procession that accompanied Tho re-
turn was imposing.

A Curious Racing Mistake.
1e6 JEFFERSON STREET.

Among curious sporting incidents
should be recorded one told by Mr.
John Kent i'll his "reminiscences of
Goodwood," where a horse loses race
from being too far III front Mt the win
ming post. Mr.. G. Grcvillc, who was
judge, was seated on an erection so far
above the level of the course that Dan
dizcttc passed, unnoticcd, by him, two
or three lengths i'll advance of Vitcllinl
and Ghost which were running on the
opposite side Of the course. Ghost hung
so much upon Vitellina rs to endanger
her being driven against Che rails
which so attracted Mr.. Grcvillc's atten-
ton HAT lie did not see Dandizctte, and
SOycc, who rode the mare, asked Mr.
Greville if lie did not win, stating that,
although he passed the post first by
some lengths, he could have increased
the lead had he felt disposed So APP

The Telling of IT.

The other day at Il social function i
came upon two friends, one of whom
had just returned from luxurious vow
age round the world i'll millionaire's
steam yacht. Have You found anybody
willing to sit down and hear you tell
about it, mischicvously asked the
other. No, WAS the laughing answer.
Il have not even vcntured to make the
attempt. " And 1 applaudcd this discrc-
ton, for telling about it, is the most
dangerous Indulgence possible to one
who would be loved as Il companion. 1t
is tho way that borcs begin and Il first
yielding to the cnticcment has often led
to one of those fatal cases of self con
sidcration which stamp the afflicted
speaker forever with brand.
He may have seen ghost or IA muir
der-nay, even may have CHANGED to
meet an emperor i'll his shirt sleeves.
No matter; let him be silent upon these
subjects i'll which his own personality
must claim the lions share. The time
will come, perhaps, in some autumn
twilight, at the end of long house
party, when the whole company may
gather about him and clamor eagerly
for his adventures. But until then he
should cling to the first prcccpt of con-
ycrsation, which commands him to leave
ample room for the display of wit i'll
others. -Scribncr'S

Germans In Franco.

The popular Teutonic belief that it is
Lot easy for German to travel in
France without being well fortified
with credentials is ridiculcd by Pro
fcsSor Hartmann of the gymnasium of
Lcipsic in IL little volume of 200 pages
on travels and pathological studies i'll
France. Tho professor apparently went
everywhere, took copious notes, some
of them near Notifications, and was not
once arrested as IL German spy. Every
body treated him with the utmost con
sidcration. Professor Hartmann plainly
tells his countrymcn that it is high time
to cease waving the bloody shirt. " He
shows them that French friendships are
worth cultivating and adds, IF VIC
really wish to lessen the animosity of
Franco, we must decide TO renounce the
annual celebration of our victories of
1870 and especially the fctcs of the
anniversary OF Sedan under tho guiso of
commcmorating the unifcation of the

THE MEMORIAL GROVE.
Ladies of the G. A. K. Receive Their
First Tree From Virginia.

The Ladies of the Grand Army of the
Republic, who are preparing to plant
a memorial grove in Capitol Park, re-
ceived their first tree on Monday.
This was a cedar from Cold Harbor,
Virginia where General Grant had such
a hard time to take the fort, storming
1t no less than seven times.
The ladies consider it a good augury
that their first tree should have ar
rived on Washington's Birthday and
have come from so famous a battle
ground. They are in receipt of letters
every day from custodians of the battle
grounds in the South promising every
aid in their power.
Yesterday afternoon the ladies held
a committee meeting and decided to
have their tree planting on or about the
1st of April The ground has been Sc
lected and is a very choice and con-
Npnieut Dlat
