Such Kings of servia.

The declaration of a commission of
Russian doctors that the son of Peter
Karageorgevitch, king of Servia by
divine right of murder, is of a degen-
crate type, does not seem to disqual-
ify him for the throne. OF the muir
dered King Alexander, as lie appeared
in Athens as a sutton for the hand OF
n Greek princess, a Servian writer in
the Contemporary Review draws the
following unflattering picture:
Poor, shy Alexander, with his bent
shoulders, his long, curious neck that
advanced horizontally. his head the
shape of roundabout cylinder, with
black hair that looked like skull
cap, but poorer figure at Athens
than elsewhere.
THE black eyes, behind large gold
rimmetl glasses, never rested a mo-
ment. were near-sighted almost to
blindness, and could not fix them
selves on the face of the person he
spoke to. He seemed to feel that the
royal family and court of Athens
would burst out laughing before he
left the room.
His uniform fitted him badly. Ii
was NoNCiVu WIN gnu ldN Z. anu Jus I
the thing to wear at an orthodox
grand mass at which all the clergy
are dressed with the gilded magnifi-
cence of icons. Another detail: He
had curious hands that snatched up
nervously the knife. fork or spoon.
and when ne went around the circle
with the king. fidgeted with his sword
handle. Alexander resembled neither
father nor mother. y French doctor
would have claimed him as 'un de
genere' and NJ. HanotauX as fin de
race"
OF course Alexander did not pros
per in his Grecian wooing. But il is
sad commentary on European roy
atty" that of such stuff Servian kings
are made. and they are as good as
some of the other kings and princes
that claim superiority over their bet
ters in the old world.

Taken with Cramps.

William Kirmse, member of the
bridge gang working near Littleport,
was taken suddenly i'll Thursday night
with cramps and a kind of cholera.
His case was so severe that he had
to have the members of the crew
wait upon him and Mr.. Clifford was
called and consulted. He told them
he had medicine in the form of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy that he thought would
help him out, and accordingly several
doses were administered with the re-
suit that the fellow was able to be
around next day. The incident speaks
quite highly of Mr.. Gifford's medi-
cines.-Elkader Oowa) Argus.

England to Try Again.

The English people seem determin-
ed in their efforts to recapture the
cup which the Americans have held
for so many years. To this end a new
challenger has been sent over and the
races next month viii determine
which is the better boat. The best
medicine in the world for curing all
stomach. bowel and kidney disorders
is the famous Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. During the summer it Will be
found very beneficial as a tonic. also
to keep the bowels regular, without
which you cannot enjoy good health.
Be sure to give it a trial. 1t will re-
store the appetite, purify the blood,
promote sound sleep, and positively
cure flatulency. nausea, headache,
sour stomach, dyspepsia, Indigestion
and liver troubles. The genuine is
for sale by all druggists.

saved Ann a DuckinE.

A colonial shrew who was threatened
with the duclling stool was once saved
by this plea:
"You wish to duck Ann Willott to
cure her. her defender declared. Now
if she be not cured where is the gain in
ducking her? And if she be cured all
the women who now keep guard over
their tongues through distaste to be
Iillened to such n known, notorious and
contemplate scold as Ann will do so
no longer; but although it is not like
any should become such as she, yet all
will scold little more than now they
do, the check of her example being re
moved. Now. 1t is better that Ann. be
ing single woman without family to
afflict, should 90 unpublished and I'M
ducked. but despised by all. and wag
her tongue as she WILL standing there
in for the whole town, than that she
should be silenced and the tongues of
other women run more free"
This argument seems to have pre-
vailed. for Ann Willot was never
ducked.-Youth's Companion.

The young reporter was unfortunate
enough not long ago to interview Sir
William Van Horne, head of the Can
adian Pacific railway. 1t was one of
those especially brilliant young New
York journalists, whose acquaintance
with places, persons and things out
side CT Manhattan island is generally
trifie vague. Did you ever have
anything to do with American rail
roads, Sir William" he asked. The
veteran looked somewhat surprised
but he answered gravely: ''Oh, yes.

nois Central, but that was some time
ago" Your experience on that far
western line doubtless came in handy
when you went to Canada" suggested

was on the Alton l sold books and

Just as an anonymous book APP
peared entitled The Failure of Lord
CurzOn," whose authorship is attribu-
ted to Lord Wedderburn, that hus-
band of a Chicago girl has had his
term extended as viceroy of India.
The 'Oh. that mine enemy would
write book" wish in this
instance appears to have had the
unusual beneficial effect upon the
victim. Lord Cur2on did not seize the
opportunity to criticise the author,
but his friends procured his new term.
The eXtention is predicated upon the
universal desire of all classes in India
to have the viceroy finish his ''irriga-
ton policy"

WRITER'S THOUGHT cRAMP
The Way the Flood of Inspired Ideas
Gibbs and Flows.


Gibbs and Flows.
If the fiction writer has his delicious
moments. when he tastes the joys
which come with the excitement of
creative composition-and these he I'M
doubtedly has-aIso he knows distress
ing periods of mental apathy.
He has been working away at top
speed, full Of gladnesS in that subtle
fabric which his pen weaves in the
warp and wool of paper and ink. His
head is packed with inspired ideas, like
n gift box from the gods. His hopes
ride high His ambitions scrape the
clouds.
Then something happens. 1t is not a
snap, break. a crash-nOthing so tan
gible 1t is just u ceasing. Abruptly,
Unexpectedly, all his fine thoughts van
ish. No longer is life a country of
majestic, white ROBBED heights and al
Turing purple toned valleys. All is
Hat and gray and bleak.
Just about now, if the writer only
knew 1t, is Il most excellent time to go
fishing.
At last, baf1ed, discouraged, heart
sick. he sits with his head in his hands.
contemplating with foolish self pity
the melancholy spectacle of himself.
But, like drought and food, war and
pestilence and all other ills great and
small, it passes. And he knows not
how or when it goes. Days after he
wakes up to find himself, pen in hand,
hard at work again. OF its own &c
cord apparently the machine has set
itself in motion.-Sewen Ford in The
Reader
