The TICKING OF THE CLOCK.
Soothing Company to Some sleepers
Cause Of Wakefulness in Others

Not all people," said the jeweler,
like the ticking OF a clock; 1t is a
pleasant sound to most people, but
not to all.
Some people, clock lovers these,
couldn't sleep without a clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company
and It scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up If the clock
should stop in the middle of the
night.
But there are other people who
can't sleep with a clock in the same
room and who, If they found them
selves in a strange place anywhere
with a clock in their sleeping apart
ment, would stop the clock before
they went TO bed.
"Of course there is much OF habi'
in this; but we have our fancies about
clocks, as We do about all thing!

The Ideal Family Laxative.

Is n that a be used by the entire
family, young aad old, weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. 1t should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose its effect altogether. These
properties can be found in hat old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills, be-
cause Its ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is a laxative on the
market that ia so carefully made.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
q century and are for sale everywhere.

Che zulu War Cry.

The Zulu war cry, used whenever
they take the field by the South Afri-
can footballers now in London, has
puzzled our newspapers, not n of
which seems able to spell it correctly,
says Notes and Queries. The Daily
Express gives 1t as 'lgamilzho,' and
the Daily Mail as "Gammillo.' The
cry really consists of two words. and
should be written "lgama layo."
"lgama'' is Zulu for name" and
"layo' is a possessive pronoun. mean
ing either his or their" Thus the
Daily Mail, although quite wrong in
its photography of the cry, is right in
saying that it merely means THAT is

A Rule and an Exception.

According to the New York Trib-
sne, a country paper lays down this
rule OF etiquette: When a lady and
gentleman are walking in the street,
the lady should walk inside of the
gentleman"
1t seems a little strange that this
simple rule, SO long current among
the cannibal tribes OF the Andaman
and other islands, should find its way
into a rural journal of more or less
civilization. 1t would appear that the
etiquette editor Of the paper in ques'
ton was either toe careless or toe
hurried to note any exceptions to the
rule. Otherwise he would have ex'
planned that when the gentleman was
thirsty and desired to enter a cafe
the lady would walk on the outside
