TONIC TREATMENT
Weak Stomach and Sick Headache
Cured by Dr.. Williams
Pink Pills.

The symptoms Of stomach trouble
vary. Some victims have a raven0uS
appetite, others loathe the sight of food.
Often there is a feeling as Of weight on
the chest, a full feeling in the throat.
Sometimes the gas presses on the heart
and leads the sufferer to think he has
heart disease. Sick headache is q fre.
quent and distressing symptom.
A weak stomach needs q digestive
tonic and that there is no better tonic
for this purpose than DR.. Williams Pink
Pills is shown by the statement Of Mr..
A. @. Merrill, a mining man, of Oneals,
Calf, a veteran of Battalion O, Third
U. S. Regular Infantry. 81

and at times had sick headache sobad
that I did not care whether I lived or
died. My stomach refused to retain
ven liquid food and I almost despaired
of getting well as I had tried SO many
kinds Of medicine without relief. Then

laid me up from work entirely for a
year, six months Of which 1 spent in bed.
Zone day a friend recommended DIR.
Williams Pink Pills to me and I began
taking them. They cured me when all
other medicine had failed. I have
recommended the pills to a great many,
for during my recovery every one asked
me what was helping me so and 1 told
them DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I can
not speak too highly of Them"

Curiosities Of the Cactus.

Mexico has a cactus which grows
tooth picks; another, ribbed and
thickly set with teeth-like spines,
which furnish the natives with combs:
there is another cactus, the long,
curved spines of which resemble fish
hooks; there is another which is an
almost perfect imitation of the sea-
urchin; still another resembles a
p%orcupine; there is another covered
with long red hair which is nick
named the "red-headed cactus"
There are several varieties which
serve as timepieces. One Of these,
the Cereus %nycticalus, opens its bios

ing; another opens at 8 o'clock and

His Candidate.

District Attorney Jerome tells of a
certain citizen whom he encountered
on the last presidential election day.
Conversation was somewhat ham,
pered by the fact that the citizens
vocabulary was limited to about
eighty-fve words. who" and what"
were evidently n to him as yet, but
he made himself clear on one point.
How long have you been in this
country" he was asked.
"Ah bane one month";" he answered.
Are you going to vote?"
"Yah."
Whom are you going to vote for?"
"Ah bane goin' vote for tan dollars"
was the self-satisfied response.

Office Boys Dabble in Wall Street.

AS the pages in the senate some
times hold an extra session all by
themselves, so the Office boys in Wall
street conduct a lively market at
times after the brokers have gone
home. They call up a number at ran
dom, it is answered by another office,
and a conversation something like
the following ensues:
Hello! This is Mr.. Jones of Biff,
Bang & Bung's. Kindly buy me a.
600, zoo, 900 shares Of Amalgamated
Copper Immediately"
"All right. This is Mr.. Smith Of
Hop, Skip & Jump. But we will need
more margin for that. Kindly send us
a certified check for 81, 900, 900 900"
A wordy argument ensues, and the
office boys finally hang up their
phones and go home content with the
days transactions.

"Hennery EGGS"

On the front of a retail establish
ment not far from the Boston public
library, is a sign that reads, "Hennery
Eggs" This is not the name of the
proprietor. No. They don't spell
Henry" with two ms and an extra
re" in Boston, you know. 1t is merely
an intimation that eggs of the genuine
sort are for sale within. They are
not incubator eggs, nor storage eggs,
nor eggs for campaign purposes. They
are just good old hennery eggs.
They're the kind Of eggs that you
have paved around in the haymow to
find and felt like cackling when you
found them. They are hennery eggs
with an eloquent accent on the hen.
And yet, who knows? All eggs are
more or less a mystery. You can't
depend on signs. Even a Boston "hen-
merry egg may not be all it's cracked
up to be.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Her Nerves and Her Hats.

A writer in a medical journal has
lately advanced the theory that wom-
ems heavy hats are responsible for
women's jangling nerves and proven
bal quick temper. The popular i'm
preston has been that the man who
paid for the hats was the n whose
temper suffered; but it seems that
large hats weigh too heavily upon the
fragile feminine Uranium and affect
the blood vessels and nerves, and
through them the brain. Moreover,
according to the writer, the effort to
keep large and heavy hats at the
right angle impose a parlous strain
upon the nerves Of the wearers. The
theory is advanced in all seriousness,
but the chances are that 1t will not
induce any normal m to cut OF
her hat supply.-New York Sun.

~TeIephoninq Herrinu,

A Berlin paper tells of a new device
that makes herring fishing easy. A
m%icrophone, which magnifes sounds,
is plunged into the sea to ascertain If
fish are passing that way. A wire
connects the submerged ~microphone
with an ordinary receiver, with which
one listens to what is going on in the
depths of the sea. Excellent results
have been obtained in the North sea
by the invention for signaling the
passing of the herring shoals.

The pews will be of mahogany with
carved back and seat and handsomely
carved ends resembling the bench ends
of Little Shelford church, Cambridge

that unsanitary cushions will be I'M
necessary. A feature of the rearrange
ment will be that there will be 20 per
cent greater seating capacity in the
same space in the nave, giving a total
seating capacity of about $50. The con
fessionals will be built in the vesti-
bule walls opening to the auditory, a
