From the Youths Companion.

From the Youths Companion.
While travelling in Cornwall, in 1891, Rev
s. Baring-Gould came near being over
whelmed in a bog. He and his companion
got lost and at dusk found themselves in
a bog called Redmire. Six bullocks had
already been lost there that year. Mr.
Baring-Goulds adventure is related in his

could not see me, and had he seen me

Happily, l had a stout bamboo. some
six feet long, and l placed this athwart
the surface and held it with my arms as
far expanded as possible. BY jerks sue

throwing my body forward, till finally 1
was able to cast myself at full length on
the surface. The suction had been so
great as to tear my leather CATERS off my
legs.
Il lay at full length, gasping for nearly
a quarter of an hour before l had breath
and strength to advance, and then wormed
myself along on my breast until I reach

out, had mad a similar experience

A SOUR STOMACH
Is often the Real Cause of a Sour
Temper.

That the condition of the digestice or
gans has a marked effect upon the char
acter or disposition is a truism as old as
the hills. Old Ben Johnson wisely said
1.-THE pleasure of living depends upon the
liver and it is a fact which none may
dispute that a sunny disposition more
often results from healthy digestion
than from any other cause.
Acid dyspepsia. commonly called sour
stomach or heartburn. is caused by slow
digestion of food; instead of being prompt
~ digested and converted into blood, bone
and muscle, it lies in the stomach for
hours, fermentng and decaying, creating
gases which cause pressure on the lungs
and heart, short breath and general dis
comfort and irritation
Such half digested food is indeed poor
nourishment of the body brain and
nerves and the result is shown in irrita-
BILE tempers unaccountable heada and
that depressing condition usually called
the blues" but how quickly ell these
disappear when appetite and digestion are
restored.
Laxative medicines only irritate the al
ready irritated stomach and bowels and
have no effect upon actual digestion of
food.
The sensible course to follow is to make
use OF simple natural QlReSIlNeS IKE
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after meals
until the stomach has a chance to recu-
perate.
The natural digestives which every
healthy stomach contains are peptones.
diastase and hydrochloric and Tactic acids
and when any of them are lacking the
trouble begins; the reason Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are so valuable and sue
cessful in curing stomach troubles is be-
cause they contain. in pleasant conceu-
trated tablet form all these absolutely
necessary essentials for perfect digestion
and assimilation of food.
Henry Kirkpatrick Of Lawrence Mass,
says: Men and women whose occupation
precludes an active outdoor life should
make it a daily practice to use Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after meals. have
done so myself and know positively that
I owe my present health and vigor to
their daily use.
From the time I was % when I grad
uated from school with broken health
from overwork until / was 81, I scarcely
knew what it was to be free from stom-
ach weakness. I had no appetite whatever
for breakfast and very little for any 9TH
er meal
I bad acidity and heartburn nearly ev-
cry day and sometimes was alarmed by
irregularity ana palpitation of the heart.
but all this gradually disappeared after
l began using Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
and l can eat my meals with relish and
satisfaction which l had not known since
l was a growing boy"
The success and popularity OF Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets is enormous, but ii is
deserved. and every druggist in the United
States Canada and Great Britain has a
good word for this meritorious prepara-
ton.

An Umbrella Member Murdered.

At Cocoa, Fla, Monday afternoon, the
body OF an umbrella member named
Burke was found near the ice factory.
Burke had been about town for day or
two. His head had been crushed with an
iron coupling pin. Two tramps and sew
eral negroes were arrested, but were
proven innocent. An inquest was held,
and it was decided that the man was
killed about o'clock in the afternoon.
Suspicion fell on negro boy, Joe Hen
derson. who had been seen with Burke
shortly before the murder. While search
was being made for him he boldly en-
tered the courtroom. He was Immediately
arrested and his baggage searched. In
valise a shirt and pair Of trousers, STAIN
cd with blood, were found. Five dollars
was found on his person, presumably the
money for which the murder was com
mitted. When tried the boy pleaded
guilty, but said it was in self-defense. He
was taken to Titusville to Jail The ne
gro came from Georgia three months ago,
and refused TO work, but spent his time

Ninety-Five Years at Her Trade,
From the Youths Companion.

From the Youths Companion.
An Englishwoman who lives near Bed
ford, one of the rural centers of the pill
low lace industry. has been 30 years at
her trade. She was born in the year 1900,
and has worked az lace-making since she
was four years old In her young days it
was a paying trade, the women often
earning more at the pillow than their
husbands earned at the pillow. Mrs. Ber-
rington's parents were not as poor as
some of their neighbors, but her father,
being a prudent and thrifty man, insist
cd on putting the child early to work.
deeming 1t best that she should have
something to fall back upon if any mis-
hap should overtake him. So at the ago
of four she was set to work at the pillow
and for the 90 years since then she has
worked regularly at her craft.
Those who have not seen this variety
of lace can have no idea of the hundreds
of thousands of turns crosses and twists
that must be given the thread in making
a few yards of the pattern. Even now
old Nancy, IS she is Familiarity called can
follow an intricate pattern with ease, and
without the aid of spectacles.
Many people call to see an old lady in
her hundredth year at work at the lace
making. and samples OF her lace have
travelled far. In her younger days such
lace as she makes brought 80 cents ward;
now she sells n for 10.
Mrs. Berrington's labors have not af-
fected her health. When she was 9S years
old she walked down from Bedford dis

Heavy LOSSES at Monte Carlo.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The greatest loss ever suffered by the
gambling establishment at Monte Carlo
was not through any rascally device, but
through a very simple idea, carefully
worked out. Nottingham manufacturer
named Gibson, having read a magazine
article on the construction Of roulettes.
and being of mechanical turn of mind.
bought several of these machnes--at first
only toy roulettes, but later on also well
finished specimens. He carefully studied
their workings and variations.
Gibson then went to Monaco. Incredible

management had failed to notice that four
Of the eight roulettes then in operation

son had little money, but finally found a
rich partner. They played on a large
scale, and in three weeks won 10000
francs, or $4,000. Then the management
grew excited over the heavy losses at the
same table.
Meanwhile some of the shrewdest gam
biers began to wonder at and ponder over
the strange luck of the Euglishmen, and
finally a Russian named Galinski discov-
cred the secret. Having no money, and
being justly afraid that the management
would before long remove, the unlucky
roulette, he went TO the directors and Of

and GslinsR successfully carried out his
