Denies Family Jar.

ANCN. vi II. NAoi Ia IL. .lol
Thaw today denied reports to the eff
feet that his sister. the Countess of
Yarmouth, had determined he and
his wife should be separated as soon
as the trial was over Thaw de
clares he loves his wife more than
ever, and that his sister made abso-
lutely no such statement as was
credited to her.
II wish to deny as emphaticaIly
as possible the published report that
my sister, the Countess of Var
mouth. is DESTROYS of bringing about
a separation of my wife and myself
at the conclusion of the trial. he
said. Perfect harmony exists be-
tween my wife. my sister and my
self, as. indeed, between all the
members OF my family. Such a
thing as separation has never
been and never will be considered
by me or any of my relatives
The Countess of Yarmouth is
very friendly with Mrs. H. X. Thaw
and holds her in the highest es-

CAS- for myself, my love for my
wife is greater than it ever was be-
fore, if that is possible. I hope that
this denial from me will forever set
at rest the absurd story of posi-

There is no more perpleXing trouble

there is no acute disease but in which
the patient every day sinks lower and
lower despite changes of medicine and
similar experiments.
That DR.. Williams Pink Pills win

is no speculation but the fact has been
proved in hundreds of cases similar
to that of Mrs. Sarah Ramsey. of 1908
st. John ST., Litchfield, Ill. She says
Il never felt well after my first
child was born. l had a gnawing pain
in my stomach and could not hold any
food down. My head acn@d a great
deal and sometimes the pain went all
through my body. l had dizzy spells
so that 1 could not stand and seemed
to be half blinded with pain. These
spells would often last for over an
hour. My blood seemed to be in a
very poor condition and my hands and
feet were like ice I seemed to be
growing weaker and weaker and could
not get around to do my work in
the house. 1 was extremely nervous
and the least excitement would bring
on dizzy spell.
For a number of years I was under
a Doctors care but seemed to get no
better. I had heard about DR.. Will

Never Overlooked a Chance.

When Bishop Talbot, now of the
central Pennsylvania diocese, was
"the cowboy bishop" of Idaho and
Wyoming he never overlooked an op-
portunity of securing contributions
for the missionary work in which he
took fach delight. On one occasion,
while attending a meeting of church
dignitaries in st. Paul, he was chatting
with some other clergymen on the
steps of his hotel when several no.
boes came along. One of them ap-
preached and asked for aid. Bishop
Talbot took him aside and after a
short but earnest conversation the
other tramps saw something pass
from hand to hand. What did he
give you?" asked the other hoboes
when they all started away. Didn't
give me nothing" was the disguised
tep!y. Il gave him dollar for his
blamed new cathedral in Laramie"

Worth KNOWING About.

If you need first-class laxative,
there is nothing better nor safer than
that old family remedy, Brandreth's
Pills. Each pill contains one grain
of solid extract of sarsaparilla, which,
with other valuable vegetable prod
ucts. make it a blood purifier of ex-
cellent character. If you are troubled
with constipation, one pill at night
will afford great relief.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pill your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
century, and are for sale every
where, either plain or sugar-coated.

In Mexico all vehicles, be they

tween, must carry a light at night
This rule or law is rigidly enforced
Even the drivers of the poor little
burro or mule carts. on their two
wheels, must carry light.
So. rather than buy lanterns, which
cost money, they take dip candle,
and wrapping it in bit of newspa-
per to shield it from the wind, carry
II in their left hand as they drive
along homeward from work after
evening has fallen. The effect is
striking, as the light, falling strongly
on the Indian driver, throws the face

Warned BY Fish.

Many anglers have great faith in
fish as weather prophets. If storm
is approaching, they say. the fish stop
biting, and they won't bite again until
the storm is past. They also foretell
the near approach of cold weather.
Hours before it comes fish leave the
shallow waters inshore and seek deep
er water. which, owing to its depth,
will stay warm and keep an equable
temperature after the shallower and
surface waters are cold.
