The English of 1t.

''You Americans call things by such queer
names, said the Englishman.
What's wrong now?" asked the New
Yorker.
"Why call these things elevators, when
they take people down as often as they take
them up"
"Well. what do you call them in your
country
We call them lifts"
"Well. | can't see that the word lift ex-
presses their use any better than elevator. "
oh yes, it does. Don you know you can
lift persons down as well as lift them up?'

subject, is narrated by him as follows:
Il was in q most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunk
en-, tongue coated, pain continually in
back and sides, no appetite-gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians had given me up. Forum
ately, friend advised trying Electric
Bitters; and to my great joy and sur
Improvement. I continued their use
for three weeks, and am now a we'll

robbed the grave of another victim"

firm has originated and developed int
very promising advertising q macs of

Messrs. G. L. Hood & Co., of Sarsapa-

KISSES COST JIMMY corTER 81.

Jimmy Cotter, good looking young fell
low. scarce old enough yet TO vote, was be-
fore Judge Adams in the municipal crimi-
nal court yesterday. charged with ASSAULT
ing Maggie Smith in open daylight on the
street. And such an assault! Most any
young man would plead guilty TO it and be
glad of the opportunity. Not so Jimmy.
Maggie is quite as young as Jimmy
and better looking. She frankly stated, in
answer to a question by the judge, that
Jimmy didn't know her any better than
she knew him, despite Jimmy's efforts to
induce her to say to the contrary.
In this mixing up of affections the judge
called upon Maggie's aunt for the story.
Maggie's aunt lost no time in complying.
She said she sent Maggie out on an errand
the other night, and, thinking that Maggie
was gone too long. she stepped into the
street to learn the reason.
She discovered the cause in the person
of the youthful Jimmy. HE was holding
her" said she.
'What was he doing?" asked the judge.
Trying TO kiss her" replied the aunt,
with fire
And did he suceeed?" asked the judge.
"He did" replied the aunt. He kissed
her after told him to let her go"

would soon be as healthy and virulent
as ever. They're just like some peo-

transferring them from culture to Gull

There is only one variety that we can't
