Merely a ouestion of spelline.

He was the engineer of an ocean
liner and prided himself on his knowl-
edge of electricity. On one of his brief
stays at home he accompanied his
wife to a party. The subject of cleo
tricity coming up, he Indignantly COM
bated the idea that it was possible for
two people to produce an electrical cur
rent through the body of third by
simple physical contact. His wife and
a friend said they would prove it and,
leading him to a window, told him to
pull up his sleeves and place both
hands fiat on the glass. They then, on
either side, took firm grip on his
wrists. At the end of few moments
his wife said:
Don't you feel pain, Willy?'
"No!' he replied and returned like
negative to second and a third in
Quiry.
At his third response most of the
company began to laugh, and it sud-
denly flashed into his mind that the
pronunciation of pain and pane was
the same.-New York Tribune.

He was at that time receiving only 49,

Nearly every mail brought him SINH

before his death a large and wealthy
corporation in New York city offered
him $4,000 per annum to become its
president. But he refused all such of
fers and quietly pursued his chosen
path of duty.-Ladies' Home Journal.

"One of the mistakes of women"
said woman's lecturer the other day,
"is in loving too much. They can new
er make mistake in loving, but they
ought to be careful in picking out the
man. They are rather apt to do 1t on
the grab bag principle. Another Of the
mistakes of woman is not knowing
how to rest, and still another is not
knowing how to eat. What women
don't know about both has built 10000
hospitals. Consider the way of man
and be wise. Women worry too much.
They are misers to jollity. and they
nearly always die leaving a large &C
count In the Bank of Merriment"

alcoholic stimulants, malt extracts and
other compounds so widely advertised
to cure the ailments of women. These
produce false stimulation, and the suf-
ferer finds herself compelled to take more
and more as time passes, and soon becomes
an unwilling slave to strong drink. What
a weakly woman needs is DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, which contains not a
grain of opium or a single drop of alcohol
or other dangerous stimulant. It acts
directly upon the womanly organs, stop
ping drains, restoring displacements and
