Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen
orally needed when the languid, ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
Is torpid and sluggish and the need of
tonic and Alternative is felt. A
prompt use of this medicine has often
averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more
surely in counteracting and freeinng
the system from the malarlal poison.

Country Roads.
Wheeling Register.

Wheeling Register.
For 100 years or more newspapers
philosophers and political economists
have vainly tried to convince the tillers
of soil that they, more that any other
class of people, were directly, vitality
and peculiarly interested in making
and maintaining country highways
over which heavy loads and1ight ones
could be drawn without expenditure of
an unnecessary amount OF costly
strength.
The farmers studied tax rates and
either would not hear or would not
heed any statistics whose bearing was
less immediate, though not less obvi-
Gus. The vast majority of rural roads
continued to be stretches of dirt, made
into dust by the sun, into mud by the
rain and always enforcing the truth
that the distance between a farm and
a market depends more on the nature
OF the road connecting them than on
the number OF miles separating them.

A GOOD GIFT.
ONE WE ALL NEED.
Gods Word In the Memory.

Christian Advocate.
A friend sat by the bedside of one
who was ill, repeating passage after
passage of the Bible, most refreshing
and comforting to the listener. One
who was present afterward remarked
"I was astonlshed at the number and
accuracy of those quotations. 1t Is
great gift to have such command OF
the Scriptures simply from memory.
1t is, indeed, blessed gift, and the
possessors of 1t should be more numer-
GUS than they are. To have "word in
season" as occasion may arise, for our
own SOULS refreshing, or for others. is
better than silver or gold. The habit
of memorizing Scripture can be cultiv-
ated so that even those who do not
commit to memory readily, can, by
practice, accomplish 1t. The help OF
the Holy Spirit is especially promised
for this: "He shall bring all things to
your remembrance, whatsoever have
said unto YOU" If we do our part in
laying up the sacred treasure by our
own mental effort, he will bring it to
mind when the occasion comes for its
use.
We have listened to prayers in which
sentence after sentence was in Scripture
language, which truly we're "fervent,
effectual, ayaillng much" David says,
"Thy word have I hid in my heart,
that L might not sin against thee ;" and
the prophet says, "Thy words we're
found, and I did eat them and thy
word was unto me the Joy and rejolc-
ing of mine heart" A man who be-
came blind in the later years OF his life
could repeat from memory large por-
ton of the blessed Word, which had
been stored away in early days. What
light shone amid the darkness from
these treasures of the mind, brought to
remembrance through the promised Of
flee of the Holy Spirit One passage
only each day for year, repeated over
and over again while we are engaged in
work, will make us possessors of three
hundred and sixty-6ve precious
thoughts of God as expressed In his
written word. at is pleasant thing
if thou keep them within thee; they
shall withai be fitted in thy lips"

NOW.

If you should stand beside my couch
tonight
Where I all shrouded lay, and cold and
white,
Waiting for the burial hour,
You'd say such dear, such tender things
of me;
My lonely, darkened, silent room would
be
Fragrant with breath OF flower.
You would not mind you then of faults,
know,
That made me once to slip and falter
Be less than 1 might be.
In tones so gently dropped none note
Or thoughts so deep they could not
speak at all -
How rich my memory
And, dearest, then of all the things
you'd say
And saddest this: ssShe loved me.
Sweeter lay
Than ere she sang, I know.
And nobler deed b. nobler nature done,
And greater victory by conquest won,
But she-she loved me So"
Oh, while with throbbing fire my pulse
is stirred,
And while my ear is strained to catch
the word
Loving from lips so near
Ere yet / wander out beyond your call,
Ere vet the sound on deafened ear shall
fall
Give me the word of cheer.

When Completed-Another Story to
Be Added-Ripley & Dickey Plan.

In the matter of the Fort street wild
ening, an agreement has been consum-
mated between the Government and
the owner of the property at the cor
nor of Hotel and Fort streets, which is
entirely satisfactory on the point of
damages. Mr.. T.. \. Mott-Smith will
at once begin operations for the i'm
proving of his property.
The first thing to be accomplished is
the setting back of the building to the
new street line. Messrs. Ripley q
Dickey, the architects, have already
completed the plans for the alteration
of the block. There will be an addi-
tional story and general change will
be effected in the present appearance
of the building.
The ground floor will be changed to
"A modern iron front extending around
the entire building. The corner will
be artistically rounded, giving beau
( tiful appearance to the building.
The second and third stories will be
well supplied with single and double
windows. The Communications will be
centered to the top story and the gen
eral scheme will be on the Renaissance
style.
The corner store on the main floor
will be 30 by 33 feet There will be
two entrances, one on Fort and the
/ other on Hotel streets. On the Hotel
street side and adjoining the Elite
will be the waiting room of the new
Davey Photograph Gallery. This room
is entered through the same vestibule
that the stairs are reached.
The second floor will be divided of
into three offices, all large and wei
lighted rooms. a spacious hall viii

The Davey photograph gallery viii
occupy the entire third floor. An un
usually large room is planned for the
drawing room. On this same floor will
be the ladies' and gentlemen's dressing
rooms and retouching room. The
work rooms will be placed on the roof
One of the features of the new build
ing will be an electric elevator run
ming up from the rear of the building
The sidewalk around the building
will be protected by Il red-tiled roo
supported by iron brackets.
Mr. Mott-Smith states that he hope
to be able to have the building read,
for occupany by the latter part o
March. Work will be commenced mex

PETS ON THE BICYCLE.
Cats, Dogs, Monkeys and Parrots which
Are Seen on the Road.

Cats, Dogs, Monkeys aud Parrots Which
Are Seen the Road.
Oats, dogs, monkeys and even parrots
are now members of the "world
awheel," and the bicycle animal is
rapidly becoming almost as popular an
institution as the wheel itself. Those
persons who were accustomed to take
their pets with them for walk OF a
drive now carry them on their daily
bin, perched OH the handle bars or the
iers' shoulders, or comfortably curled
in basket.
A black cat of Danville, KY, owned
by W. q. Proctor, has made reputa-
ton as a scorcher. No pace is too swift
for it. The more speed the rider puts on
the better the cat likes it, and almost
any evening it can be seen on the shout
der &c some local speedy man" 1t
makes friends with other wheelmen,
but refuses to ride with more than one
person on the same evening.
Charles Hemstreet, IL Dey street,
New York, had until recently q bicycle
monkey. The monkey rode Ill any posi-
ton on the wheel or the rider, as it
saw fit, and kept up u continual chat
tering all the time. 1t leaped from the
handle bars TO the riders shoulder and
back again like a flash and hung on by
feet and tail in most accomplished
manner. Tho cool weather, however,
proved too much for it and it caught
cold and died.

taste. A quartet of them belonging tc
Edwin and Ernest Warren Of Montvale,
Mass, have made as good record.
They ride in cage attached to handle
bars or on the riders shoulders.
New York has bicycle pug owned
| by Carroll Fleming, 81 West Twenty
second street, who had an upholstered
wire basket constructed for its comfort
during autumn and winter rides With
the pug on the wheel no bell is needed
for the animal barks most of the time
One of the first of the bicycle pets
was Chicago parrot. During the sum
mer it was customary thing to see the
bird clinging to the handle bars of thu
machine, turning its head from side tt
the scenery, and seemingly enjoying the
trip as much as the rider behind.
But more remarkable bicycle ami
NAL than any other yet heard of is Con
sui ii, a chimpanzee, at Bellevue gar
dens, Manchester, England. Consul l.
rides wheel, not as other animals do
through the help of the real rider, bu
unaided. The ape is years old ant
was brought from the west coast of AT
RIGA = years ago. 1t rides both the bi
cycle and the tricycle., and it is claimed
that it is the only monkey in the worlc
that possesses these accomplishments
1t learned the tricycle. first, and after
ward took to the bicycle quite natural
ly. 1t is an expert at the sport ant
steers the machine in way worthy O
