Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to MANY
of the so-called patent medicines con-
tanning injurious Ingredients as broadly
less influence, this publicity has certainly
been of great benefit in arousing needed
attention to this subject, It has, in
considerable measure, resulted in the
most intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected of containing the injurious ingre-
fact some time ago, DR.. Pierce. of Buffalo,
N. Y, vtook time by the forelock,n as it
were, and published broadcast all the
ingredients of which his popular medi-
cines are composed. Thus he has COM
pletely forestalled all harping critics and
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against his medicines, because they
are now OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper, it will be seen that
these medicines contain no alcohol or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots OF
medicinal plants found growing in the
depths of our American forests and of
well recognized curative virtues.
Instead of alcohol, which even in small
portions long continued, as in obstinate
cases of diseases, becomes highly objec-
tionable from its tendency to produce a
craving for stimulants, DR.. Pierce en-
ploys chemically pure, triple refined
glycerine, which of itself is valuable
remedy in many cases of chronic diseases,
being a superior demulcent, antiseptic,
antiferment and supporting nutritive.
1t enhances the curative action of the
Golden Seal root, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark and Bloodroot, contained in
uGolden Medical Discovery" in all bron-
chial, throat and lung affections attended
with severe coughs. AS will be seen from
the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover

son Medical College, Phila.; Scudder, of
Cincinnati Ellingwood, of Chicago;
Hale, of Chicago, and others. who stand
as leaders in their several schools of
practice, the foregoing agents are the
Uery best ingredients that DR.. Pierce
could have chosen to make up his IA

only bronchial, throat and lung affec-
tions, but also of chronic catarrh in all

"Flirting" With Brook Trout,

If the farmer boy is more successful
in his catch than the city fisherman it
is because he realizes the advantage
Of keeping out of sight OF course the
supposition is that other conditions are
equal. Familiarity with stream Of
ten has much to do with the size Of
the string. Trout especially love to
hide under wooden bridges, water
soaked logs, branches, etc. They seem
to realize that safety is found in such
places. When the current will not take
the worm to these spots one must re-
sort to flirting" This Is done by
holding the hook in the left hand and
bending the pole until the tension is
sufficient to throw the worm over the
spot. Considerable practice is neces-
sary to make the bait land exactly
where it is wanted, but flirting is an
art well worth acquiring Circle

FRENCH RED TAPE.
a Professor, His HOLSTERS and Sons
Casks Of Sea Water.

Casks Of Sea Water.
Last year a professor in one Of the
Paris universities resolved to study the
habits of Holsters in his laboratory. AS
they live in salt water, the first care
of the professor was, of course, to pro-
cure supply Of this medium. The
common mortal will probably consider
it most simple task-to provide few
barrels Of sea water. This, however,
is not SO in France. Sea water con-
tains salt, and the production Of salt is
a source of revenue. This made it
necessary for the professor to first OBJ
tain the permission of the minister of
finance before he could travel and
transport the water. When his appli-
cation reached the ministry, sub
ordinate official was directed to inquire
into the standing of the petitioner.
This involved considerable correspond
ence, which passed through numerous
channels and finally reached the chief
of the department, who now initiated
another Investigation in order to as
certain why a Partisan professor
should be SO anxious to lower the
level Of the Atlantic ocean. After sew
eral weeks the inspector made favor
able report. Some days later the petit
toner was notified of the favorabl
consideration of his request in the
usual elaborate official language, ac-.
companied by circulars giving extracts
from the penal code relative to in
fringements of the salt monopoly.
Finally, after months of waiting, the
professor was enabled to have some
casks filled with salt water at des-
ignated point on the seashore, of
course under the supervision of anoth-
er official. who duly issued a permit
for the transportation Of the liquid into
the interior.

sWer to Queen Elizabeth's command,

upon to- reply. Whom does your

phasis to give, what information to use,
what manner to assume, gave me

ed the line thousand times, stressing
first one word and then another, using
this infection and that, and getting
into it every grade and shade of mean

could learn afterward, I did not speak
1t at all on the opening night. The
leader of the orchestra was the first
person broached on the subject.

COSTLY RAZ0Rs.
Some Gold Handled That Sell For $50.

Handles of Silver and of Ivory.
IT man were content to shave him
self with 4Srazor having a hard rubber
handle, as indeed most men are, he
could buy one with blade Of very ex-
cellent quality for dollar, but there
are razors far more expensive than
this.
Thus there are sold razors with ham
dies of IS carat gold and Of plain
smooth finish that bring $50 each. A
pair of such razors in a plain silver
box can be bought for a hundred dol
lars.
But $50 is not the limit of what one
may pay for a gold handled razor. If
the handle were deliberately chased it's
cost might mount up to twice that, or
5000 for pair.
There are also sold, among those
more expensive, silver handled razors
which range in price from $3.50 to
$50 each, $3.50 being the price for one
with a plain silver handle, while those
more costly have their handles more OF
less deliberately chased or carved.
A man who did not altogether like a
hard rubber handled razor might find
his fancy suited with one having a
handle of ivory, and an ivory handled
razor need not necessarily be expen-
sive. A razor with a plain ivory han
die can be bought for So. OF course
any carving would add to the COST
Costly razors are usually sold for
gifts.-New York Sun.

MISTAKEN OCCUPATIONS.

Do Not Continue in a Pursuit For
Which You Are Not Fitted.
There is, in these alert days Of com
petition, of quick opening and closing
Of places where bread may be earned
and a path in which to go forward
secured, no time for doing anything
that one can't or that is Of no moment
when accomplished Know for a GER
tainty that never half the harm has
come from a firm and dignifed refusal
to enter upon or to continue in pur-
suit not fitted to one as from engaging
in such pursuits. What loss the world
would have sustained had Handel con-
sented to become lawyer, Turner to
remain barber Claude Lorraine a
pastry cook, Schiller surgeon, Pascal
a teacher of dead languages, as was
intended by relatives. But, great as
would have been the loss to the world,
the loss to these men themselves would
have been far greater.
Doubtless thousands of crimes which
have ruined an incalculable number of
lives could be traced to mistaken occu-
pations. Joy and delight in ones work
mean progress, and progress and it's
result and satisfaction mean a nobler
life than stagnation and partial or en-
tire failure could fashion. Doing the
thing one can is working for morality
and toward perfection on all the
planes Of life, physical, mental, spir-

crack of the lash that does the trick, as
much so as the sting. In Russia the
clout is used with more deadly effect
than the rawhide or blacksnake whip
could ever be used. OF course there is
danger of putting out the eyes of some
one with the cracker of the whip, but
then, too, there is danger of breaking

The Aue of MARRIAGE.

The age of legal capacity to marry in
England is much lower than in Italy
The English law has adopted in this
respect a law of Roman and even
Athenian origin, by which the ages Of
fourteen and twelve were fixed as the
manageable ages of males and fe-
males, respectively. In Italy the age
is fixed by the civil code at eighteen
and fifteen. Formerly the age of spous-
for both sexes. but such marriage was
not considered perfect, for the parties
might disagree to it when they ar
rived at the mature age of twelve or
fourteen.
