Umbrellas for Owls.
From the Detroit Free Press.

IoIH the Detroit Free Press.
Il suppose" remarked a genial SILL
ourban citizen to a cluster of street car
comrades, if you all came out to our
place and saw us travelling up and
down the lanes in the moonlight with
umbrellas over our heads, you would
say we were all crazy. wouldn't your"
of course" remarked a chorus of
voices.
We'll, if any one of you should walk
in our lane without an umbrella, after
dark, you would wish you hadn't"
What ails the lane?" everybody ask
ed. rs it haunted by ghosts who walk
only on moonlight nights?'
Not quite" replied the citizen of
the countryside, but just now we have
a curious set, of conditions that might
not be met with anywhere else in the
whole round world.
"Our lane happens to be densely shad-
ed on both sides with big forest trees.
These old trees are full of owls nests,
and at this time of the year-when they
have young ones in the nests. we infer
the owls are very warlike and vicious.
Without a sound, except a flutter of
wings, they will sWonp down on an UNI
protected traveller through the lane at
night and peck him on the head saw
agely. ~
"One of my boys had his head
scratched until it bled, and my daugh-
ter had her hair pulled until she
screamed with pain and terror. Still
we can't give the lane up altogether on
these lovely summer nights, so we
stroll about safely with our umbrellas
hoisted."

YOU WILL BE ALL
SMILES AGAIN
Forget Your stomach and You'll
Have a Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO DO IT.

II there is one thing more than all
others that will give man forlorn
and friendless appearance and make
him morbid and cranky" and dis
agreeable that thing is dyspepsia. 1t
makes one for~et his friends and be-
come morose and irritable. He is so
wrapped UP in his own misery that he
is inconsiderate of every one else. Re
lieved of this terrible and depressing
ailment, he again becomes a good fell
low and a man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are be-
yond question the most effective and
popular remedy ever offered to the sur
ferers of this terrible disease. The
thousands and thousands of cures they
have brought about and the enormous
increase of their sales fully attest the
truth of this statement.
They are. above all, natural rem
edy. They possess exactly the same
properties that the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids of the stomach
possess, and they actually do the d.
gestive work of the stomach and en-
able that organ to rest and recuperate
and become sound and we'll. They act
in a mild, natural manner and cause
no disturbance in the digestive organs.
They prevent any fermentation of the
food which causes sour stomach. In
fact, under their influence the subject
forgets that he has a stomach and
his resulting cheerfulness presents a
great contrast to his former dejec-
ton.
Millions of boxes of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets are sold annually and they
are but in the dawn of their popularity.
Every mail brings letters of thanks
giving from grateful ones who have
been cured of this terrible disease. The
following is one of hundreds received
each week:
Rev. j. R. Hoag of Wymere, Neb.,
writes: For six years I have been
troubled with dyspepsia. Last fall l
became very much alarmed at some
symptoms of heart trouble and came "a
believe there was a sympathetic rela-
ton between the two diseases, or rath-
err, that the stomach trouble was the
cause of the heart disturbances. I hit
upon Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets for a
remedy and invested a dollar and a
half for three boxes which lasted me
three months. and 1 can eat any kind
of food | want and have good, Wig
orous appetite. Although I am II years
old. now feel perfectly we'll and with
out being requested by anyone / make
this statement as a compliment to the
virtues of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. .
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at SOC a box.

UNDERTAKERs' EXPERIENCES.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Strange things" said an undertake
err. are to be come across in my bus
mess now and then. For instance
there is one family on my list that
buries it's dead without collins.
This is a rich and an aristocratic
family. In using no collins it follows a
precedent established over 300 years
ago in England I have buried a man
years out of this family, and each
was buried wrapped only in shroud.
Women give directions for their
burial, but men give none, as a rule.
Women select the gowns. the shoes,
the iewelry, even the underwear, in
afraid to look forward to their own
death. leave no orders of any kind.
"Cndertakers. as a class are jovial.
They are not morbid. They are not
afraid to die. Sometimes they play
Jokes on one another Here is a joke
that was once played on me.
Il got a telegram from Chicago tell
ing me that a body. with the mour-
nerS, would reacn Pnllddelphla on a
certain train. and bidding me meet
the train with hearse and four car
riages. 1 met il, but there were neith-
er corpse nor mourners aboard. l had
been hoaxed. and I'd like to know who
it was that hoaxed me, so as to col
lect S25 from him. for that is what
this joke cost me.
Il once buried a beautiful spinster of
43 years. had known her all my life,
and often l had wondered why she
never married, for she had suitors by
the score. In laying her out 1 discov-
cred that she had wooden leg She
had kept this secret from me and
from everybody This is a tribute to
the wooden legmakers. 1t shows they
can manufacture limbs that look ma
tural, and on which it is not neces-
sary to limp"

stance. A German engineer in the
Lebanon district placed an order for

A Discourse of the Most Uncanny of
HOOdoos.

HOOdoos.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat
Every traveller who hasn't an acct
dent policy will indorse Engineer Bit
man. of the Lake Shore fast mail, who
wouldn't take his train out until a
black cat that had hidden under the
engine was captured and prevented
from running across the track in front
of the pilot. The train was delayed
eleven minutes until the cat could be
taken into custody, but had it required
an hour to deprive her of liberty the
passengers would have cheerfufly sat
there, the men smoking their cigars and
the women opening their handbags and
readjusting the contents two or three
dozen times more. 1t doesn't so much
matter what the signs and portents are
after you are fairly started, but it is
the first evil foreshadowing before the
journey is begun that is freighted with
the deepest dread.
Black cats are singuIarly fated to
cross paths. Can you recall a single
instance when a cat of that description
ever turned back or could be frightened
into retracing her steps? She may
make a long detour, but at some point
she intersects your intended path, on
the scamper knowing we'll her harmful
errand. Her apparently perverse flx-
ity of resolution is, of course. not her
own. In her bosom. as in that of all
feline creatures, burns a spark from the
pit.
The black cat is the familiar of the
witch and the witch is one of the min
istering earth-myrmidons of the Pow
ers of Darkness. That cat but does
the will of higher mind. Black cats
are race apart from other cats. Did
you ever see black cat on a dark
night sitting on the fence-top or the
coal shed or anywhere, wasting pre-
clous hours in foolish serenades? You
never see anything but white or gray
or tortoise-shell, perhaps notified cats.
engaging in such nonsense. No black
cats visible. The black cats are out
on their mission of malevolence, and a
SWIFT and passing glare in the darkness
ABOUT as big as gooseberry alone be-
trays their presence. They have no
care to plague their enemy, man, by
merely irritating his ears when they
are the trusted messengers of more
dread Affections.
other cats travel in lines parallel
WIN your own direction of progress;
they playfully disport along the walk
or perhaps just inside the fence, fol
loving you for blocks, gratefully and
aHectionately. But black cat crosses
your path at the first opportunity. It
knows its business.
