A Piece of Lath.

A story is told of a former mayor of Birmingham, England, that he gave orders to have his robes of office lined with 'yermin " When the late Alder man Sturge WAS mayor he received q royal command to dine and sleep af Windsor. This of course meant court dress and sword The court dress was reluctantly submitted to, but IS mem Der of the Society of Friends. and moreover one who had greatly distin- guished himself in the cause of peace for he had formed one of the peace depatation to the ezar before the out break of the Crimean war Mr Surge would not consent to wear a lethal weapon. A compromise was happily effected. \ scabbard and hit of the usual kind were al his worships side when the presentation to royalty took place, but the sword was q mere Iath of wood. Fortunately the worthy Quaker was not called upon to draw in defense of his sovereign.

AN INN.s SECRET.
Sample of How Warrants We're Prepared
 In Old Times.

In Old Times.
 During the work of rebuilding the Royal Bull hotel of Dartford England, an old hostelry and landmark, some in teresting discoveries were made last month, says the Baltimore Sun. In l773 a murder had been committed at the house and the body disappeared mysteriously. A skeleton now dug up, three feet below the flooring of an old cellar, sleads to the belief that it was the remains of the victim of the tra- gedy. 4 secret staircase was brought to light. and, as this communicates by invisible doors in the walls of the eel lar with the room in which the tragedy occurred, it strengthens the belief that the body was taken down the stair case and buried. At the same time a number of death warrants, bearing the signature of Portland, minister of George III, were found in the panels of the walls In which the murder was committed. How documents or this character got into so strange hiding place is matter for conjecture. One. dated June, 1798. is a good sample of how warrants were prepared in those days. It reads: Whereas, James 03Goigley, having been attaiAssd of high treason and had sentence passed upon him to be drawn upon a hurdle to the place of execution and to be hanged by the neck. but not until hs is dead, but that, being alive. he shall be taken down and his bowels taken out and burnt before his face, that his head shall be severed from his body and his body divided into four parts, and that his head and body shall be disposed of as we think fit, and where as we think fit to remit that part of the sentence directing the burning of his bowels and dividing the body into four parts, our will and pleasure is that he shall be drawn and hangel and have his head severed from his body."

ALWAYS A DOUBLE.
For Persons Who Gain Social or Pollti-
 cal PrnmInanca

cal Prominence.
 Washington special New York Mail and Express: It has always been a notable fact in Washington that when ever a man or woman gained especial prominence in politics, war or society. there appeared on the streets of the capital his or her double. All the presidents have had their doubles. and Cleveland used to be greatly annoyed when told that Lawrence Gardner who was connected with the Demo- cratic national committee from the district of Columbia, was his exact image. Ex-Congressman Fowler of New Jerbey took the greatest delight iI being mistaken for President Me x ey, and 1t is said he affected the presidents style and dress to heighten the resemblance. One of the female clerks i8 the treasury department dur ing the Cleveland administration se- cured many invitations to social en- tertainments simply because she look ed like Mrs. Cleveland and certain hostesses wanted her presence at their functions to make the unwary believe that Mrs. Cleveland was one of the guests. There have been many fac similes in human form of the various army and navy heroes of the late war constantly seen about Washington and their doings have often caused stories to be circulated about the original. which, al times, were embarrassing to the latter. But so far as known, the gripman who looks like Dewey bad not traded On his resemblance. but seems content with attending to ais york as Dewey does.

 Curious Bird Hablrs,

It is Well-knoWn fact that if the young of almost any kind of bird are taken from the nest before they can hy the old ones will feed them most attentiFely if the cage in which the little birds are fncIosed is placed some where where the parents can reach 1t; and popular but erroneous belief is current that they do this for a time. and end by poisoning the young ones. This, however is mistake, the fact being that at a certain stage of young birds existence, when it is nat urally able to begin catering for itself, the parent birds, also quite naturally, cease to attend it. and then. if the birdlings are shut up in the cage and their custodian has not thought of placing some food at their disposal they necessarily die, not from poison administered by the parents, but from starying.-Pall Mall Magazine.

Carriages without horses shall go. And accidents fill the world with woe Around the world thoughts shall fly, In the twinkling of an eye.
 Water shall more wonders do Now strange, yet shall be true. The world upside down shall be, And gold be found at root of tree. Through hills man shall ride, And no horse nor ass be at his side. Under water men shall walk, Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk. In the air men shall be seen, In white, in black, in greer. Iron in the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat. Gold shall be found mid stone, In land that's now unknown Fire and water shall wonders do, England at last admit a Jew; And this world to an end shall come, In eighteen hundred and eighty-oae.

Experience has shown to physicians that the majority of diseases have their origin i'll the Arrangement or disease of the stomach and other organs of diges- ton and nutrition. The stomach is the receptacle i'll which food is received and the laboratory ill which it is prepared to nourish the different parts of the body.
 1t prepares brain nourishment i'll one way, nerve nourishment Ill another, muscle nourishment i'll another When the stomach Is out of order" these various forms of neurishment are only partly or imperfectly prepared, and nerve, muscle, or brain, as the case may be, is only partly fed, and the result is pain which Is Natures protest and warning The pain may be in the head or in the heart, but you must reach it through the stomach or you can't cure it That is the philosophy OH which Dr.
 Pieree's Golden Medical Discovery is prepared. IL has absolute control of the stomach and digestive aad Hutrieive system Ii cures diseases ill head heart, liver, lungs and other organs by curing the diseased condition of the stomach which prevents the proper nourishment of the various organs and corrupt5 them by its own diseased condition in the partial nourishment t provides. ln like manner Golden Medical Discovery 't purifes the blood by purifying tue stomach and other E}9od making organs.

Mother shipton's Prophecy.

The famous prophecy of Mother shipton" was made in England in f485, more than four hundred years ago. be- fore railroads. telegraphs, electricity. or bicycles were even dreamed of, and at time when if man had openly predicted such things as a definite pos sibility he would have been tried and perhaps condemned to death as wiz ard. Now every one of these predic- tions has come true except that the world has not come to an enu, nor seems likely to.

An American Railroad in China

Moneyed men from the United
States have secured a franchise
for building a railroad from Hong
Kong to Han Kow, China, a dis
lance of nearly 700 miles. While
railroads are necessary to a nations
prosperity, health is still more
necessary. A sick man can't make
money if there r a thousand
railroads. One of the reasons why
America is SO progressive is the
fact that in every drug store is
sold Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
that celebrated tonic for the weak,
appetizer for the dyspeptic and
sedative for the nervous. 1t is
taken with great success by thou
sands of men and women who are
run down, pale and weak. It in
creases the weight, and the gain is
permanent and substantial.
