STRANGE TEST OF INNOCENCE.

A Sthange way of testing the inno- cence of an accused person is em- plCyed in India.'' said Philadelphia dealer in hides who lately returned frcm Madras. They haul him up an give him q mouthful of dry rice to chew. I don't suppose you ever chew ed dry rice? Well. if is hard work. IL takes q deal of chewing to get it mas- ticated into q glutinous mass. like gum, and that is the condition that the acused is required to get it into within ten minutes. If you are calm and not afraid, you succeed, but if you are nervous and scared you fail. For it seems that fear has a strong effect upon the salivary glands; it prevents them from secreting saliva. The mouth of q badly frightened person is almost dry as q bone. It requires a tremen- dous flow of saliva to chew dry rice. and therefore the scared prisoner in- evitably fails in this test It isn't of course 9 test employed in the big towns. It belongs to the interior. less enlightened vila2es."

BETTER THAN PILLS.

The question has been asked, "In what way are Chamberlain's Stomach & Liver Tablets superior to pills?" Our answer is: They are easier and more pleasant to take. more mild and gentle in effect and more reliable as they can always be depended upon. Then they cleanse and invigorate the stomach and leave the bowels in a natural condi . tion, while pills are more harsh in ef- feet and their use is often followed by constipation.

Ore Dogs Intelligence.

The intelligence of animals seems
as rule to be moderated rather than
overrated. A dog breeder described
the other day wonderful collie that
had belonged to Sir John Lubbock.
This dog" he said, would, when it
was hungry, lay at its masters feet a
card marked Food When it was
thirsty it would fetch a card marked
Drink When it wanted to take a
walk it would bring a card marked
Out Sir John Lubbock trained it to
do this trick in less than a month.
He put the food card over the dogs
food and made it bring the card to
him before he would allow it to eat,
and in the matter of drinking and
going out he used like method. The
cards were similar in shape and color.
Nothing but the writing on them diff
fered. Since, therefore. the dog dis.
tinguished them by the writing alone,
it may truly be said that the animal
could read"
