Probably the causes Of the slide

He didn't live long. most likely danced

danced SO much. You see. she's got
four toes on each foot. and she uses
them all in her steps. Her nOstrils
are just like human ones. and when
she whirls and waltzes they spread
apart like a young colts at a first race.
She sleeps all day. and begins her
antics at twilight. It's a regular cir

Ready for a Better Thing.

Former Judge w. ]. Wallace Of Al
bany, now at the Hoffman house, told
this story, which was sifted out, he
says, of part of the evidence in a case
presided at by a former colleague
who recently resigned from the bench:
"An Albany tradesman had in his
employ a lad whose mother was a
widow in bad circumstances, the con-
sequence being that the boy was poor
~ clad. The tradesman kindly prof
fered to get the boy a new suit OF
clothes, provided the boy repaid him at
25 cents a week out of his wages. The
first Monday after that arrangement
had been made the lad did not go to
work as usual, and on his employer
sending to inquire the reason, his
mother said that he locked so respect
able she was trying to get him bet
ter iob."-New York Globe.

CARE OF YOUR LIPS.

minute a cold sore is discovered, first
wetting the spot with the camphor
and then adding the powdered sub
nitrate of bismuth. so that the cold
sore will be covered with paste. 1T

piled to the lips night and morning
will harden the lips. Cold sores eat
into the skin and may leave scars that
may remain permanently.
The lips should be naturally OF a
a good color if the health of the in
div,dual is good. II is vain to re-
sort to artificial means to color the
lips. If the circulation is poor the
lips will be purple. If the digestion
is bad. the lips will be white. if the
whole system lacks tone and vigor.
the lips will be lacking in colcr.
Therefore. instead of restoring to
rt'fcial means TO improve the color
of the lips. build up the constitution
by all means that make health.

How 90 Keep House.

With all the luxuries and pleasures
OF this life. its big cnjoyments and
its smaller comforts. there is an Offset
or antithesis which we have TO con-
tend with in the form OF aches and
pains. In some way and by some
means every one has a touch of them
I'm some form at some time. Triding
as seine of them may be. the risk is
thar they will grow TO something great
er and rack the system with constant
torture. There is nothing. therefore,
OF this kind that we have a right to
trifie with. Taken i'm time. the worst
forms of pains and aches are easily
subdued and cured by the free use OF
st. Jacobs Oil. No well regulated
household should he without bottle
of this great remedy for pain. It is
the specific virtue of penetration in
st. Jacobs Oil that carries il right to
the pain spot and effects a prompt

Rheumatism. Neuralgia, Lumbdgo,
Sciatica. You want il also i'm the house
at all times for hurts. cuts and
