 ''Soon the Americans entered the city, but ole Santy an his greasers had departed, leavin' the wooden leg in Jims possession. In the hubbub Jim was forgotten about, an rejoined his comrades as quick as they hove in sight.
 "He told his story of the game with Santy Amy and exhibited his wooden leg in proof. Soon afterwards Jim was killed as he was carryin of water to dying comrade, an the l1lynoy regiment to which he belonged fell heir to the wooden leg. Some liar spread the report that the leg vas found after the evacuation of the town, an that report was believed. But it's lie. I remembers all the circumstances well, altho' it's been a long time ago." and Uncle Zeb' rehlled his pipe and lapsed into silence.

No trouble is more common or more mis- understood than nervous dyspepsia. Peo- pie having it think their nerves are to blame and surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines. The real seat of the mischief is lost sight of. The stom- ach is the organ to be looked after.
 Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor per haps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every organ.

There should he no surprise at the large
n.-val increases asked for by Secretary Long
in his annual report. All the conditions which
h-F" heretofore prompted a liberal naval
policy are reinforced by new ones insistent
IN their requirement for a continuation of
srch policy. The country stands today in

arising from territorial requirements alone.
The. rJmmerre Of the country is growing at
a Tremendous rate. Its development is in

The ups and downs of Lii Hung Chang
II we may accept the reports from time to
time on the subject, are the most remark

he is in the highest favor at court, and now
in disgrace. Now he is at the head of every
thing in China. and he is at the head
of nothing. Now he is arrayed In all the
gorgeOusness of peacock feathers and now
for some Offcnse he has been plucked to
his pin feathers. He seems to be having a

Lii Hung Chang, correctly or incorrectly
is accepted by the civilized nations as the
most advanced and capable man of his

with him. while the much larger number
who met him while he was on his tour
around the world, and when he was in
specting for the first time many of the Gus

western genius, were struck not only with
the quickness of his perceptions and the
range of his informatio but with the de-
