Dennis Was the First One Up.

About thirty years ago Dennis Nc
Carthy was a well known character in
and around Proyincetown, Mass. Al
though addicted to the juice Ct ire
grape, he was favorite with every
one. Some of his friends came to-
gether one day and decijFd to try and
cure him of his bad habits. They got
him when he was full seas, and little
more, over, and took him to Gene
terry vault, where they locked him in.

drinking habit when he woke up.
The next morning Dennis woke up,
looked around him and saw all the
dead, crossed himself and said:
"Be jabers, tits the resurrection. and

related what hao taken place at the
house Of Mrs. Fry.

They all sat silent after that, as if

FIGHT WITH CHINESE PIRATES.
BIoodthirsty Sea Rovers to Be Found
in Eastern Waters.

III EASTERN WATERS
We had been in the fog but two or
three hours when large junk sudden
ly doomed up on our port bow. Our
captain, who was an old East India
and China trader, took one look at her
and said: my God! Here's an in
fernal Chinese pirate junk! Make all
sail, quicki"
We did not need that order. Almost
as soon as can tell it we had tho
sails up and drawing, but not quick
enough to escape the junk, which bore
down under full head, her decks
crowded with men, her graphing
irons on long pole, ready to hook
into our chains. The Oneco, being
built for the China trade, was armed.
We carried four guns in each broad
side and two swivels on the taffrail,
with an ample supply of boarding
bikes, muskets, pistols and cutlasses.
If the pirate succeeded in boarding us
it would mean a hand-to-hand fight,
and what with making sail and getting
ready for battle, we had not fired a
gun before graphing irons were in our
chains. But at this moment we let go
broadside of our four port guns,
which must have disabled the men in
charge of the graphing line, for they
lid not succeed in making 1t fast
around their bits until they had drift
ed about 200 feet astern. We at
tempted to cut this line. but the hook
VOC attached first nv n long chain
which we could not sever and the
angle was such that we could not hit

DISTRESS AFTER MEALS
Sure Sign That Or. Williams Pink Pills
Are Needed to Tone Up the
Digestive Organs.

Loss of appetite, distress after eating,
shortness of breath, a feeling of utter
weakness-these are symptoms that are
familiar to most sufferers from stomach
trouble. Too often the ordinary doctors
treatment serves but to weaken the dis
eased organs.
The new tonic method OF treating dis
orders of this kind does not aim TO do the
work Of the stomach, does not demand
that the food be pre-digested, but builds
up the weakened organs, SO that they can
do the work that nature intended.

Horton, Kansas, says: elm 1897, while
we were living on farm in this neigh
borhood, / became generally debilitated

ing any relief, l tried box of DIR. Viii
