BETTER THAN PILLS.

The question has been ssked-1n
what way are Chamberlain 8 stom-
ach and Liver Tablets superior to
the ordinary cathartic and liver
pills. Our answer is-They are
easier and more pleasant to take
and their effect is so gentle and SO
agreeable that one hardly realizes
that it is produced by medicine.
Then they not only move the bowels
but improves the appetite and aid
the digestion. For sale at Is cents
per bottle by F. NJ. Hickman.

Sizing Up to the Auntie.

Young Edgar was on visit to the
home of his two aunts, one of whom
is, to put it mildly, rather plump. He
saw her in her room just as she was
about to go out to a formal dinner,
and as she had not drawn on her
gloves he had an opportunity to see
her arms, barred to the shoulder. A
little later, when the other aunt was
experimenting his evening bath, he
stopped for moment, looked himself
over and said thoughtfully: Il amt
very fat, am I? My legs aren't as big
as Aunt Cordelia's arms.'

Positions for Rifle Firino.

Standing, kneeling, sitting and lying
down are the four positions prescribed
for firing by the army regulations.
The lying position alone is prescribed
for the eight hundred and one thous.
and yard ranges, while at all other
ranges up to two hundred yards the
lying and sitting positions are used.
At one hundred and two hundred
yards the sitting and standing posi-.
tions are prescribed. Wherever the
sitting position is prescribed the kneel-
ing may be substituted, but for the
majority of persons the sitting is by
far the better position of the two.
