QUEEN vICTORIA's HAIR.
IT'S Profusion, at Her Age. Has Always
Been Wonder.

Over so years old, Queen Victoria yet
has luxuriant hair, which has for years
been a marvel. The court physician.
following Prof Unna's discovery, has
treated Her Majesty's scalp with
germ destroying preparation, which he
mas always kept secret. 1t is now
known, however, that the remedy for
dandruff, the germ destroying element,
is embodied in Newbro's Herpicide, the
only hair preparation on the market
that does destroy the dandruff germ.
Without dandruff hair will grow pro-
fusely, and falling hair viii be stopped.

Took HI. Last Cent For n Drink.

~
The old soak, In his tattered. patched
coat, shuffied up to the bar, where he
had drained of so many drinks, and
looked wistfully at the bottles of red
liquor in row about two arms length
away.
"Say, Jim, old boy" he said to the
bartender in the most winning tones
he could muster, you wouldn't take a
mans last cent fer drink, would ye"
You bet your life would" snapped
Jim, with the viciousness of a steel
trap. Jim suspected an effort to get
drink on tick and proposed to forestall
It.
"Well, s'pose l got to have her, so
set her out, and the soak heaved up a
great sigh that shook his frame with
emotion.
Jim heaved a much lighter weight
sigh on discovering that the drink was
to be paid for. He set out the bottle OF
the toughest goods he had In the house.
The unwelcome customer poured out
four fingers and drank 1t down with
evident relish. Wiping his mouth on
his coat sleeve, he reached into his
pocket, and, pulling out one old, tar
nished cent that he had found on the
sidewalk, he slapped it on the counter.
"There you are, Jimw he gurgled.
whats thisT yelled Jim in loud,
strident tones.
you said you'd take me last cent for
a drink. and there 1t Is"
Jim reached under the bar for base
ball bat which he always had on tap,
but before he could get 1t out the >artful
soak had disappeared through the
front door.-Chicago Chronicle.

The or, In Checker.

Analysing game just played at the
club by two checker experts seems to
be almost as fascinating a recreation
to the spectators as any other branch
OF the game. Time and again have we
watched n half dozen checkerists who
were busy suggesting "thls move TO
draw" or 'that move to win" while
an equal number would be just as
eager to prove the unsoundness OF the
lines In question. BY the time both
sides are through, the position has been
thoroughly sifted and It's intricacies
are apparent to all. Many players,
however. are not very anxious to have
their good things" displayed and adj
vertised in this manner and generally
decline to answer leading" questions.

Finally the attorney paused in the mid

Backus, pointing his finger at the meek

straight in the eye, Numbered:

the Lady nnd the cobr.

An English woman residing in India
one evening found to her horror that a
huge cobra had colled itself about her
veranda rails, near which she sat play
ing the violin. She was too near the
snake to run with safety, so she contin-
ued playing while she gradually edged
away. At first her only idea was to
keep the creature thus engaged while
she escaped. but when she had gained
a safer distance and perhaps fascinat-
ed by the unwonted sight a strange in
SEPARATION seized her. She played air
after air of different characters.
The effect was magical. That snake

CAUSE OF DEAFNESS.
The Most Common Cause Only Recently
Discovered.

1t has been stated on good medical
authority that nine-tenths of cases
of deafness are caused from catarrh
or from sore throat trouble.
The little tube which leads to the
ear from the throat is lined with a
sort of velvety structure called mu-
cous membrane. This membrane is
simply n continuation of the mucous
membrane lining the throat. When
disease of any sort attacks the mu-
cous membrane of the throat it is
very liable to extend into the Eus-
tachian tube and up into the ear.
The history of nearly all cases of
deafness is like this: a cold is con-
tracted and neglected, other colds
are taken, the throat becomes sore
and infiamed, which is aggravated by
particles of dust and germs from the
air. This condition causes the dis
ease to spread into the tube that
leads to the ear.
1t seems little farfetched to say
that most cases of deafness are caus-
ed from catarrh, but it is certainly
true, and anyone who has had Sc
we're catarrhal cold must have MOTTO
while the cold lasted.
With catarrh sufferers this impair
ment of hearing becomes chronic and
grows worse the longer the catarrh
is neglected.
You can cure catarrh and deafness
by the regular use of an excellent
new preparation called Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets. composed of antisep-
tic remedies which act both on the
mucous membranes but principally
and most effectually on the blood,
eliminating the catarrhal poison from
the system.
People whose hearing is defective
may think ii a little remarkable that
a simple and harmless tablet would
very often remove all traces of deaf
ness, but when it is remembered
that catarrh is easily cured by the
regular use of Stuart's Catarrh Tab
let's there is no mystery about it.
If you are subject to nasal catarrh
or catarrh of throat, bronchial tubes
or catarrh of stomach and liver, the
safest and most effective treatment
is the new catarrh specific, Stuarts
Catarrh Tablets, sold by all druggists
at so cents for full sized package.

Kewanee Couple Believed to be Living in
Rock Island.
The Kewanee Verdict says: "A
few days ago a married business man
of Kewanee took his departure from
our midst very unexpectedly. His
wife says, without contradiction,
that he has eloped with a fair damsel
from one of the hotels of this city.
She takes matters cody and does not
seem to grieve over the loss of her
spouse. 1t seems as though this un-
true husband had been paying spec
iaI attention TO this maiden for some
time, and the elopement was not much
of surprise to many who were ac-
quainted with the circumstances.
The man is in the neighborhood
of rs years old, while his chosen
running mate is about IS. 1t is
thought that they are now living at
Rock Island as man and wife. The
business affairs of the man are now
in the hands of an attorney, and his
stock will probably be sold at sher-
ifs sale, as the wife does not care
to longer pay rent while he is out on
his lark. No doubt the clipping couple
will be back in a few days repenting
for their rude act. 1t seems that the
deserted wife is not the only party
left to grieve their departure, as the
maiden has sweetheart who seems
to be very anxious TO display his
muscular ability if he can get a
glimpse of his unexpected rival"
