given me up. Fortunately, a
friend advised trying Electric
Bitters, and to my great joy and
surprise, the first bottle made a
decided Improvement, [ con-

LOubet and HIS Mother

President M. Loubet seems to
be kind of ingenu among rul-
ers-with all of the sweet SIM
pliclty and none of the arts. He
visited the little town of Monteli-
mar, one day last week, and the
place was en- fete. His old peas
ant mother, trembling with emo
ton, waited on a balcony special
ly arranged for her, where, when
the procession was over, her son
was to JOIN her. But the presi-
dent, as he was driving by, saw
the old wrlnkled face looking
down at him, and IN spite of the
procession, which was in danger
of being spoiled, and in spite of
all the pomp and the ceremony he
was expected to observe, he
stopped his carriage, jumped out,
and, running up the balcony,
caught the trembling little old
lady IN his arms, hugging and
kissing her before all the world
with boyish glee. Somehow the
story seems better than any
fairy tale, and the new president
twice over a better prince.-Har-
per's Bazaar.
