OLD FOGY KNEW.
Experience Teaches Pople.

my parents considered coffee simply
a harmless beverage for old and young
so when a mere baby l commenced to
drink 1t, and when / reached woman
hood, found myself troubled with nerv-
BUSINESS, headache and an irritable
and more coffee, thus adding fuel to the
fire
Il grew worse until life was one black
night of pain. My nerves were shat

stomahc gave out and utterly refused to
digest the most simple foods, and finally
/ lay for weeks starving and longing for
food, but unable to eat more than just
enough to keep me alive
while in this state, my next door
neighbor brought in a fragrant cup
that l supposed was some new grade of
coffee, and, although | had suffered so
terribly from it's effects, the temptation
was too strong to resist, and l drank it
with relish. l noticed it had a rich,
agreeable taste and 1 drank 1t without
distress. She repeated the kindness two
or three mornings.

TRICKS TO GET DEER.
Sometimes They Stop When You Tell
Them to--Red Attracts Them.

From the New York Sun.
There are some tricks in woods hunt
ing that are common property. For in
stance, most hunters who pot partridges
while the covey are sitting on a pine
or spruce tree know that the lowest
bird should be shot first. II this is done,
nearly all of the covey will sit still to
be butchered, but If the highest bird be
shot the survivors will fly instantly.
They are disturbed not only by the noise
of the dead bird coming down through
the branches, but they see it fall and
take warning.
Not many hunters know, however, that
a deer under full Roadway, speeding
down runaway as If a legion of hounds
were after 1t, will often stop still and
instantly IL 1t hears shrill whistle. The
whistle Is the deer's signal of warning
of challenge and of soeiability and it al
ways attracts attention from them
Similarly running deer will often

THEwAsHlNeToN ANCESTRY.
A Question That Has Long Vexed
Genealoeists.

From the London Speaker.
The attempt of the promoters of the
st. Louis exhibition to secure Sulgrave
manor, the alleged home of the Wash
ingtons, for their forthcoming worlds
fair, reminds us that the question of the
ancestry of the first President of the
United States is still regarded as a vexed
one. Although our American cousins
covet the old Northamptonshre house,
they cannot prove 1t had a very near
connection with George Washington. If
the Presidents ancestors ever held Sui
grave manor, they left 1t at least six
generations before George took up the
thread of fate, and the relic hunters
would find something more worthy of
their attention as being genuinely WASH
ingtonian If they went farther north.
The Washingtons of the seventeenth
century were characteristically loyal
Daring the civil war they We're cavaliers
and it was their connection with an lat
tempt to overthrow Cromwell and ire
store the old dynasty that caused John
and Lawrence Washington to flee from
Yorkshire over seas and join other exiles
in the old and loyal dominion of Vir-
einia. They bought large estates and
settled down on the Potomac. John,
who had abandoned his Yorkshire es-
tates, married Miss Ann Pope. and their
eldest son, Lawrence. married the
daughter of Colonel Augustus Warner,
a prominent eolonist, and had three chill
DIRE n-John, Augustine and Mildred. Au-
gustine married Jane Butler by whom
he had four children, and after her death
he fell In love with and married Mary
Ban young lady Of great beauty. Their
first son was George Washington, who,

stop If 1t hears an unusual, but not ter
rifying noise. A half-breed Chippewa of
the Flambeau reservation named Sam
Pogon asserts that deer understands the
meaning of the English word "Stop"
and always obey it.
Whether this is true or not and it
isn't, Sam always says "Stop!' in a
clear, mild tone instead of using the
whistle, and his deer generally stop. He
does a good deal of guiding and it gives
his patron rather an eerie feeling to lie
hidden by a runaway with him and hear
him give his brief command.
The brown deer of the woods is as
much attracted by a red handkerchief
or any other bit of scarlet cloth as is
the antelope and sometimes arouses
their curiosity but it never frightens
them.
That is one of the reasons why most
Indian hunters wear red cloth bound
around their foreheads; the other rea-
son is that it is distinguishing mark
of a human being and brother Indians
or amateurs are less apt to mistake them
for game and pot them as they move
slowly through the trees
1t is a fact not commonly within the
knowledge of sportsmen that a wounded
deer, shot while speeding by a stand,
will always come back to that stand if
| it has strength enough. More deer are
finally bagged by men who simply in
| spect the bloodmarks and sit down and
wait than by men who take up the blood
trail.
OF course. it is wise to follow the
| blood for a half mile on a chance that
the deer has gone down, but If it goes
| beyond that distance 1t is pretty much
of a certainty that it will continue for
some time longer and in that case the
| best place for another shot is at the
| old stand. Why the deer does this Is not
positively known, but it is probably be-
cause 1t is best acquainted with that
runaway and in its hurt condition likes
to be near its haunts.
| Some men In the woods will not shoot
a doe at any time of year, no matter
| how tempting the shot, and they earn
credit as self-restrained sportsmen. 9th
ers are not so conscienceful and take
| deer of either sex as they come.
A few of these men are wise enough
to know that in case buck and doe
| are together and 1t is wished to bag
| both. the one to shoot first is the doe.
/ If the buck be shot the doe will flash
away never to return; If the doe is
| shot, the buck will probably make half
a dozen jumps going out of sight. but
If no noise be made will always re-
turn to sniff at the body of his COM
panion.

Get the Best for Your Money.

Did your grocer tell you, when you or
dered Clifton flour, that he had some
thing just as good? Do you know why
he tells you this? 1t is because he buys
some inferior flour for less money and is
trying to work this off on you and get a
few cents more profit on 1t. This Is a
perfectly legitimate thing for the grocer
to do. but you ought to see that you get
the best value for your money. And to
do this insist on his sending you "Cllf-
ton" the finest patent flour.
