Some fellows wait for something

Some men grow gray waiting
to be given a chance. Other men
take it.
A sound discretion is not 80

Morgan Burgess, young bust
ness man of Green Ridge, Conn,
has returned to her parents, with
his blessing and n check for 81 900,
his bride of three weeks; he says
she is a hoo-doo. She was a girl
from Vermont, and when he
brought her home his mother fell
dead at the introduction. Two
nights later the house was entered
by burglars and several hundred
dollars were stolen; then a valu-
able horse and two COWS were
stricken with all unknown disease
and died; Burgess himself was
thrown from buggy and sus-
tanned compound fracture of his
left arm, and, to crown the whole
performance, his store was struck
by lightning and burned to the
ground. This was enough. Bur-
CESS says his wife is hoodoo, if
there ever was one, and that he
hasn't the nerve to live in the
same house with her. He loves
her all right, but has given her
ticket home and check and bid
den her goodbye forever. The
courtship was conducted by cor
respondence and Burgess had never
seen his bride before he went OH to
Vermont to marry her. He thinks
the misfortunes that have fol-
lowed him serve him right, for
having linked his life with that of
a girl he had never seen.

BORROWING TROUBLE.

The New York World prints
these interesting paragraphs in an
editorial;
As the story runs, once there
was an old man, broken by years
and wrinkied by worries, who laid
him down to die. Summoning his
seven grown children to his side
he delivered feebly to them with
his parting breath this last mes
sage:
= My children, / have lived
long, toiled hard and worried
much. But as | look back upon
my life | find that my greatest
troubles have been those that
never happened
"ln other words, the good man
had spent much of his time in
crossing bridges that he was never
to reach--in borrowing trouble
that he was never TO experience. =

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by + ]
Cheney * Go. Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

Thomas Arbrckle, a hard
working farm laborer in Scott
county, Indiana, has not swallow
ed any food for four years. He
puts it III his stomach, however.
through a hole in his side. The hole
is an artificial one, In consequence
OF the closing of the cardiac orifice
by typhoid fever. The case is al
most exactly similar to that of
Alexis st. Martin, through whose
side the whole process of digestion
was visible, and who, in this way
furnished almost all the knowledge
physicians now possess of the
stomach and it's workings. One
of the things observed in his
case was that, when the stomach
was fairly livid with irritation
from improper diet, the only
sensation he experienced was a
slight headache. showing that
when n severe headache results
the wrong done the stomach must
be extreme. These cases lead one
to speculate what would be the
result on the general health of
mankind if everyone had a win
dow III his stomach ard could
witness the effects of dietic i'm
prudence. The probability is it
would greatly prolong the life of
some people and have absolutely
no effect on others.
