tains PERSONS nutrition by enabling one
to est, retain, digest and assiniilate the
proper nutritious food. 1t overcomes the
gastric irritability and symptoms of indi-
gestion, and thus the person is saved from
those symptoms of fever, night-sweats,
headache, etc, which are so common. A
tonic made up largely of alcohol will
shrink the corpuscles Of the blood and
make them weaker for resistance.

DR.. Pierce believes that tonic made with
alcohol will shrink the red blood corpuscles
and make the system weak for resistance;
that is why he avoided the use of any alco-

Georgetown, April 30.--Mrs j. Har-
lesion Read was struck by lightning
and instantly killed during severe
thunderstorm Saturday afternoon at
Maryvil.e, near Georgetown. Miss
Elizabeth Read was severely shocked,
but will recover. Col. j. Harleston
Read and Miss Mary Adams of Colum-

capped without injury.
Col. Read, Mrs. Read and Miss
Read were sitting on sofa near the
wall and Miss Adams in cha,. near
the centre of the room, when the IA
tai flash descended into the house.
Mr. w. NJ. Gaillard of Georgetown
was quickly summoned and admins
tered to Miss Read.

Oysters In the Time Of sallust.

The highly digestible quality of
the oyster considered as food was
known at very early period. When
Sergius Orata "ennobled the Lu-
crime oysters the British variety
was unknown to the Romans, but
Sallust, at least fifty years before
Christ, says of the Britons that
there is some good in them after all,
as they produce an oyster. Sergius
had his beds off Baise and made q
profit out of them, as they were
much in request as q prelude to a
banquet and were esteemed besides
for their medicinal virtues. '"They
nourish wonderfully" we are told,
"and solicit rest" being more heal
ing than any drug or mixture that
the apothecaries can compound

Strengthening Things.

Patrick Maginis went to confession,
and among many other sins, con-
fessed to the good father that he
had stolen Mrs. Mulcahy's pig, the
loss of which had been great blow to
the poor woman. The priest looked
at Pat very severely and said:
"Stole Mrs. Mulcahy's pig, did ye?
"That's very bad, Patrick--very bad.
Don't you know, Pat, that to steal a
pig is heinous sin, aud to steal Mrs.
Mulcahy's pig is worse2 What will
ye say in the day Of Judgment when
Mrs. Mulcahy confronts ye before the
Lord an charges yc with stealin' her
pig-what II ye say?"
Pat looked rather glum at this on
slaught, but at this point he picked
up and said:
"Sure, yer riverince, Mrs. Mulcahy
won't be there"
"Indade; an why not, Pat Maginis? :?
Mrs. Mulcahy will be there and the
pig'll be there, an when yer asked
why ye stole the widdy's pig, what'll
ye say, I'm wantin' to know?"
"Will Mrs. Mulcahy be there?"
asked Pat, great idea illuminating
his face.
"She WILL" said the good father se-
verely.
"And will the pig be there?"
Certainly"
"Then begorra," said Pat, I'll say
Mrs. Mulcahy, there's your pig"

The Army That Mrs. Harrison Showed

When Mrs. Caroline Harrison was
the first lady of the land she gave
the renovation of the White House
her personal supervision, and some
of her methods were unique. Mrs
Ben Butterworth told story of one
of her ideas, the working of which
she witnessed once upon making a.
early morning call. Finding Mr..
Mckee in the red parlor alone sh.
inquired for her mother.
"Where is mammal Why, in
the basement. You will generally
find her in the basement, too, until
she is perfectly sure there are no
more worlds p conquer"
"Well, l will look for her." said
the visitor, and descending to the
lower corridor she soon located her
in the kitchen.

Going upstairs they entered the
family dining room, and the visitor,
standing in front of the mantel,
said: "What is it? 1 do not see any
thing new.''
"Turn around" said the presi-
dents wife, and doing so Mrs. But
terworth at last noticed two good
sized sponges hanging over the man
telpiece:
"Well, see some spongcs. What
are they for?" But just then she OBJ
served two thick, brown streaks
about an inch wide reaching from
the mantcl to 'hc sponges, and they
seemed to be in motion. "Why
what is that 2" she asked.
"That is two solid armies Of ret

There is always kept before the
royal baby this warning:
"You may somo day be king; you
must think only Of that and prepare
fox it"
| The youngster may have all kinds
OF desires to go nutting, fishing, and
to play as common children do. but
watohful tutors and attendants con.
stantly keep it reminded that royal
children must not do these things be-
cause of their station in life
Bus if the children are deprived of
many pleasures common to boys who
never will be kings, their lives, after
they are eight or ten years of age, are
busy ones. There are few royal fam
lilies of Earope new that permit their
children to come up in idleness. AS
soon as they are cid enough to study,
they receive training il books and
book knowledge that is severe. AS
the tutor Of the present Emperor of
Germany once said to him:
If you are to be Emperor you
must know more than your people do
and be able to rule them"
So che children study the languages
and the science of government. They
strive to fit themselves for the hard
work of life which is before them. It
is said that the young Grown Prince
OF Germany has gone so far in his
studiee that at the present time he
can tell offhand:
The strength Of the different navies
of the world; of the different armies;
the crops Of each world country; what
his own country produces the most of
and lacks the most; the population
and area Of all the principal nations;
give outlines Of the character of the
government of each; and, with all this,
speak several languages, shoot, swim
and ride well, and act as a kind of
private secretary for his father, the
Emperor.
Now for the average American boy
to have all this knowledge and make
good use Of it before he is twenty-one
years of age, would seem like great
undertaking.
The American boy should remem-
Der, though, that all this knowledge
worked into the brains Of royal chill
dren does not make them good nor
wholesome children, and later, strong
men, if they have not character. The
common boy is the equal of the royal
aoy, in this If not in other things;
that neither can lie, form bad habits,
be selfish, be idle, without paying the
same penalty. The royal boy that
lives a useless life comes to the same
unhappy end as does the boy of every
day life who cannot see that honesty
end work make for the best. TIE
unhappy end of King Alexander of
Servia shows 10 what fate boy may
come, who will not learn to control
himself 80 that, in the years to come,
he may be able to kindly, wisely
and with helping hand, govern
others.
To most boys few opportunities to
govern others come, but it is long
gain on life and is real purpose to be
able to rule yourself.
