| waste product Of the oyster, ut FOL
nothing but to be thrown away. But
il anybody wants to find out a few
facts about the value Of oyster shells,
let him go out and buy a dozen from
the sea-food man from whom Jane
| gets her Friday fsh.
We cracked the shells in a news
paper with a hammer and Jane Qiking
to work with tools) cracked a few
roots Of ginger and made a pot OF gin
ger tea. We threw the shells into
the coop, had a good drink OF ginger
tea, and went to bed.
No eggs.
'IIl run them around" said Jane;
that makes them lay"
1.-THE book says 1t is bad for them"
That's what we did when l was a
GIRL" said Jane; Gust ran them
around. You take ~foolishness from a
hen and she'll impose on you. But II
they can see that you mean to be the
boss"
Jane stopped, but added:
"You Just have to take the upper
hand of a hen"
"The book says that little bits of
meat, cut up"
i've got some sausage left" re-
marked Jane.
Sausage they had, and curry, and
powders from the man who sold me
the Poultry Fancier's Friend" while
all the time Jane snorted Tin a very
delicate way, of course), and gradual
ly worked herself up to a pitch. Yes,
if ever fowls were pampered, it was
our eleven hens and our one rooster,
but on one point they were indomlta-
BILE; they wouldn't lay.
There was a speckled hen, on whose
manner | began to build hopes and to
whom l showed particular attention IN
the way of choice bits of oyster shells
and the like. but n morning when |
was giving this fowl her daily medi-
cine she broke away, a to the roos-
ter and pecked him cruelty, ran to the
other hens and pecked them, k
in a ferocious manner, scratched gray
ell and flew up in my face. l just es-
capped with my life, a into the house
and told Jane.
What did you let her do 1t for?"
asked Jane.
"She was in a temper" l said.
THAT'S what comes of pampering
them!" exclaimed Jane. She put
something on her head and glanced at
the clock.
where are you going?" 1 said.
Il am going to run them
'round!" said Jane, and out she
went.
1 stayed in. When Jane is like that
she doesn't want to be bothered; but
five minutes later, when l looked
out (although, as a rule, Jane doesn't
like me to look out) and saw her
standing just outside the chicken
coop door as If she was going to stand
there forever, l went out too. a.
Whats the matter?" l asked, look
in the empty run for the hens.
You go in" said Jane, in her most
determined manner I'm giving these
chickens just five minutes"
l went in, and at the end of the
five minutes Jane disappeared into
the chicken coop and came out bear
ing two eggs in each hand.
"IIl teach them!" cried Jane.
Adding:
And all the others are on the nest
too!"-New York Evening Sun.

used different remedies they did me no

Catarrh Of the Internal organs.
Miss Theresa Bertles, White Church,
Mo- writes:
II suffered with catarrh of the stomach,
bowels and internal organs. Everything l
ate seemed to hurt me. / never had a
passage of the bowels without taking medi-
cine. | was SO tired mornings, and ached
all over. l had a pain in my left side, and
the least ~exertion or excitement made me
short of breath.
"Now, after taking Peruna for six
months, | am as well as | ever was. Pc
runa has worked wonders for me. l be-
lieve Peruna is the best medicine in the
world, and 1 recommend it to my friends"

CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
It All Seemed to Point to Matrimonial
Intentions,

Intentions.
ga case of almost conclusive cir
eumstantial evidence indicating matri
monial intentions on the part of
bashful young clerk in my division
has been causing that young mar con
siderable embarrassment of late" sai(
a chief of a division in the War De
partment the other day.
"The other evening the young mai
In question went out with a young
lady to make a call on some friend;
who reside in a certain apartment
house in the northwest part of The
city. 1t was a rather new structure
and since the young fellow was not &C
Quainted with the exact location he
found considerable difficulty in locat
ing the place. While, together wifi
the young lady, he was wandering
along the street keeping his eye opel
for the fiat a fellow clerk in the de
partment happened along, and the per
picked young man with the younl
lady sought his friends aid in TIT
difficulty by inquiring the location o
the fiat. The proper direction wal
given, and then the passing clerh
seemed struck with a sudden bright
thought. His face lighted up with tht
significance of his idea, and graspinl
the hand of his fellow clerk, he said:
"'And say, old man, there are somt
fine apartments in that house. b.
Just the thing for you. l thought yoI
had been unusually preoccupied at tht
office lately with something besides
your work. Congratulations, old man
Don't forget your Uncle Fuller whel
you use the p~asteboards. Good lucl
to both of you
"And then the enthusiastic ant
Quick-witted friend moved on, leavint
the young man and his companion
looking intently at the edge of this
pavement, with the color in their face;
corresponding to the glow of the set
ting sun.
"NoW the circumstances in the CASE
all pointed to the marriage Of the
young clerk as a natural sequence
The young man had recently been al
mitted to the bar, he was slated fol
promotion in the office, he had just
applied for his annual leave, and hao
been talking of taking a trip. Then
again, it was known among the boys
that he had been saving up his salary
for the past few months, and had &C
cumulated a little bunch Of money IN
the bank. In the face of these facts,
together with the incident of his look
ing for a fiat in company with q
handsome young lady, there seemed
but one conclusion to be reached IN
the matter, and the brother clerk
reached that conclusion on the run.
"Of course the matter was spread
about the Office next day, and the
bashful young clerk now has an ache
in his right arm from shaking hands
with the boys, who insist on congratu'
lating him on his coming matrimonial
venture, although he denies emphati'
caIly that he has any such intention
The boys refuse to accept his explana-
ton of the case and are waiting fol

by Three Boxes of Cuticura.
Small sores appeared on each of my
lower limbs and shortly afterwards both of
those limbs became so sore that l could
scarcely walk. The sores began to heal,
but small, scaly eruptions appeared. The
itching was so severe that l would scratch
the sores until the blood began to flow.
After | suffered thus about ten years l
made a renewed effort to effect a ure.
The eruptions by this time had appeared
on every part of my body except my face
and hands. The best doctor in my native
county and many remedies gave no relief.
Finally my hair began to fall out and L
was rapidly becoming bald. A few months
after, having used almost everything else,
/ thought l would try Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap. After using three
boxes l was completely cured, and my hair
was restored, after fourteen years of suf-
fering and an expenditure of at least $50 to
$50 in vainly endeavoring to find a cure.

The true citizen who is earnest
in all that concerns his home town
will bury all personalities, or
antagonisms whsn any measure or
enterprise is presented for the
improvement and progress of the
town. Those who oppose such
measures because of some griev-
ance against the promoter, or
antagonism, is unworthy of his
residence, lacking in civic pride.
and, necessarily, is wanting in
public spirit. He is an injury to
