Buffalo Enquirer.
HE is not taking his defeat very
gracefully, is he?" said the senator
HE is like the old bachelor whom the
widow refused.
There was an old bachelor who, after
a brief courtship, proposed to a widow.
But the widow very politely and colby
declined his offer.

than a sister to you.'
THE bachelor dropped her hand in a
huff.

murmured, in strange voice.

bachelor. You may yet be my mother

Are WIRE BIZ THE YARD.
Thirty-eight Feet eff Picture Cord Found
in Asylum Inmates Stomach.


in Asylum Inmates Stomach
Frank Wallace, an inmate of the state
hospital for the insane at Norristown,
Pa, ended his life by swallowing thirty
eight feet of fine wire, which wac found
in two sections in his stomach when an
autopsy was made to disclose the cause
of death.
Wallace, who was 24 years old, was
transferred from the Philadelphia coun-
ty prison. He suffered from decisions,
and when he told his caretakers this
week that he was full of wire' the
matter was regarded as improbable by
the physicians. He insisted that an oper
alton would confirm his statements, but
he was too weak to undergo one and
was informed. by way of an attempt to
cure his supposed delusion, that an oper-
alton would kill him.
''All right; cut me open when I'm gone
and see," said Wallace just before he
lied.
The autopsy revealed the presence of
one piece of wire three feet long rolled
into ball. The other piece was thirty
five feet three inches long and was part
ly rolled into ball, although twelve feet
of this had unwound and had worked
and pierced through the intestines, caus-
ing peritonitis. With the mass of wire
was found piece of broom straw four
inches long. The case is the oldest in
the history of the hospital and the forty
years experience of DR.. d. d. Richard
son. The wire was the kind used in
hanging pictures.

He sees the sun CLEAN upon the sill

that the white hands are no longer

Q. What is the beginning of sickness2
a. Constipation.
z. What is Constipation?
A. Failure of the bowels to carry off
the waste matter whi"h lies in the ali
mentary canal, where it decays and poi
sons the entire system. Eventually the
results are death under the name of
from typhoid fever and appendicitis,
stomach aud bowel trouble at the pres
ent time
q. What causes Constipation?
4. Neglect to respond to the call of
nature promptly. Lack of exercise. Eek
cessiye brain work. Mental emotion and
improper diet.
., What are the results of neglected
Constipation?
A. Constipation causes more suffering
than any other disease. IT causes rheu-
matism, colds. fevers, stomach, bowel,
kidney, lung and heart troubles, etc. 1t
is the one disease that starts all others.
Indigestion, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, loss of
sleep and strength are its symptoms
piles, appendicitis and fistula, are caused
by Constipation. Its consequences are
known to all physicians, but few suffer
ers realize their condition until 1t Is too
late. Women become confirmed invalids
as result of Constipation.
Q. Do physicians recognize this?
A. Yes. The first question your doc
tor asks you is ARE you constipated ?"
That is the secret.
Q. Can it be cured?
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error is to resort to physics,
such as pills, salts, mineral water, castor
oil, injections, etc, every one of which
Is injurious. They weaken and increase
the malady. You know this by your own
experience.
Q. What then should be done to
cure it?
A. Get bottle Of Mull's Grape Tonic
at once Mull's Grape Topic will posi-
lively cure Constipation and Stomach
No other remedy has before been known
TO cure Constipation positively and per-
manently.

erts a peculiar strengthening, healing in
fuence upon the intestines, so that theY

is gradual, but sure. 1t is not a physic,
but it cures Constipation. Dysentery

Flowers That Shoot Like Guns.

Birds and insects carry seeds about al
most as busily as the wind The rough
and hairy coats of quadrupeds often cap
ture the burrs of the plant they come in
contact with and carry them for thou
sands of miles.
Rivers and all running waters perform
a similar use; multitudes of plants are
found growing upon their banks, tho
seeds Of which have been brought by the
current from distant localities, and, be-
ing stranded when the water is low, they
find at once an anchorage and a suitable
place for growth.
There are plants even that jerk and
dart out their seeds like shots from tiny
guns, for the purpose of scattering them.
Touch-me-nots and cardamines form
quite miniature artillery when ripe,
discharging their little batteries with a
vigor that is quite comical.-Exchange

little woman he took pleasure in
walking with on the sands he would
have been very Indignant He was
sorry for the poor invalid, and felt he
was doing an act of genuine phllan-

she said, placing in his hand a minia-
ture of an old man whom he remem-

Clinton Calorme followed her. With
out any prellminaries the invalid said:

arms, Mr. Calorme, and left in your
hands a will which you duly forward

tors My uncle was a man of great
eccentrlcity, and that will. while it
put me in possession of this entire
property, contained condition that

ried and without natural heirs. In
case of my marriage and the failure
of natural heirs, the will permits me
