Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
A well-known physician is authority
that these ingredients are all harmless
and easily mixed at home by shaking
we'll in bottle. This mixture has a
peculiar healing and soothing effect
upon the entire Kidney and Urinary
structure, and often overcomes the
worst forms of rheumatism in just a
little while. This mixture is said to
remove all blood disorders and cure
the Rheumatism by forcing the Kid
neys to filter and strain from the blood
and system all uric acid and foul, de-
composed waste matter, which cause

IN LIFE's BRIEF SPAN.
Experiences, Joys and Sorrows Of the
Human Existence.

The loves and friendships of indi-
viduals partake of the frail character
of human life, and are brief and IN
certain. The experience of human
life may be shortly summed up: A
little loving and a good deal of sor-
rowing; some bright hopes and many
bitter disappointments; some gor-
geous Thursdays when the skies are
bright and the heavens blue, when
Providence, bending over us in bless
ings, glads the heart almost to mad
ness; many dismal Fridays, when the
smoke of torment beclouds the mind
and undying sorrows gnaw upon the
heart; some high ambitions and many
Waterloo defeata, until the heart be-
comes like charnel house filled with
dead affections, embalmed in holy
but sorrowful memories; and then
the chord is loosed, the golden bowl
is broken, the individual life-a cloud
vapor, passes away.-Matthew Hale
Carpenter.

ARE TURNED TO STONE
BODIES OF TWO NUNS FOUND
PETRiFiED.
Had Been Buried for Twenty Years
Discovery Made as Caskets Are
Taken from Private Gene
terry in Chicago.

Chicago.-Two among the - bodies
buried for more than 20 years in the
little private cemetery beside the sem
mary of the Ladies' of the Sacred
Heart have been touched by the mys.
tic hand of nature and petrifed.
Recently the graves of the cloistered
nuns. most of whom had spent the
greater portion of their lives within
the walls of the brick building at
West Taylor and Lytle streets, were
opened, and all that remained of their
bodies removed to permanent rest
ing place, in Calvary. But the under.
takers met a different state of affairs
when the graves of Mother Galway,
the founder of the Chicago seminary,
and Mother Gauthreaux, her success
sor, were opened.
Both Mother Galway and Mother
Gauthreaux had been buried in metal
lie caskets. An increased number of
assistants was obtained by the un-
dertaker in charge on this account,
but when the men sought to raise the
coffins the task was one which taxed
their strength to the utmost Neither
perfectly, and that in which Mother
GauthreauX was buried was badly
crushed. Because of the tremendous
weight the caskets were opened and
startling state of affairs discovered.
There was the body of each woman
almost exactly as it had appeared the
day the casket had been closed and
lowered into the earth beside the SEM
mary. When a member of the ladies
of the Sacred Heart is buried she is
clothed in the same black habit she
wore during life. Instead of the silver
cross on her breast small wooden
one is placed there and nothing
metallic is allowed to remain. Then
the folds of the black veil are care
fully drawn across the face of the
dead nun.
When the wondering nuns looked
upon the bodies of Mother Galway
and Mother GauthreauX the little
wooden cross was gone with the pass
ing of the years, and the features
looked upon for the last time when
the veil was placed over the face
were no longer visible. But the out
line of the figures was there as per-
feet as ever. Every line of the body
that had been visible 20 years ago
was still there, and the color of the
black habit gave the somber hue to
the solid figure weighing more than
1000 pounds, where both of the
women had been but slight in stat
ure during life and weighing hardly
more than 100 pounds.
For a moment the nuns of the insti-
tuition were allowed to contemplate
the wonders nature had wrought with
the bodies of their predecessors. They
saw where the familiar white cap had
crumbled away, as had the texture of
the habits, leaving only solid figure
as If hewn out of ivory.
Then the bodies of the dead nuns
were incased in new caskets and they
were borne to Calvary to the little
plot where the sisters of the institu-
tiou now bury their dead.

Hospital Storytelling.

1t is curious that philanthropists
in search of a novel means of doing
good do not engage reciters and story
tellers to visit hospitals and amuse
the patients. A rich man in New
