A Lazy Liver

May be only tired liver, or starved
liver. It would be stupid as we'll as
savage thing to beat weary or starved
man because he Jagged in his work. So
in treating the tagging, torpid liver it is
great mistake to lash it with strong
drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled
bodT. whose organs are weary with over
work. Start with the stomach and allied
organs of digestion and nutrition. Put
them in working order and see how
quickly your liver will become active.

organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t re-
stores the normal activity of the stomach,
increases the secretons of the blood-mak-

He reached over toward his pen rack,

I was ready with a fountain pen.
The pen was uncapped. I handed it to
him. He started to write The ink
would not flow. I took it and shook it.
Again he made the attempt, with no
result.

stepped into the other room. Evidently
some one stopped him with question,
for he did not come back for three
minutes. Then he stood at his desk
He looked down at the contract.
II believe I had better think this
matter over again. he said And all
the talk I put up could not bulge him.

pie, just like freckles or curly hair.
How differently our side OF a fuss
sounds when presented by our enemies!
The chances are if people distrust
you the fault lies largely with your

A man never cares a great deal for
the pictures taken of him when he was

The idea that there are two sides to
every question didn't originate with
any Of the parties directly interested.
1t is right to start out in life with
an ambition, but don't overlook the i'm
portance of enjoying the scenery on
the way.

falcons he has not worn in long
time, he always feels in the pockets to
see if he has left any money in them.

ROBBERY IN PARIS CAFES.
No Prices on Bills of Fare, and Waters
Impose on Guests.

No Prices on Bills of Fare, and Waters
impose on Guests.
81 tell you" said the returned Euro
pean traveller, taking up the bill of
fare, its good deal of relief to get
to a place where one can know the
exact cost Of things to eat and drink.
When on the other side narrowly es
capped nervous prostration because of
the latitude in the prices Of items on
the menu Paris is about the worst Of
fender among European cities In this
respect. In restaurant after restaurant
there prices are omitted from the bill
of fare simply to give an opportunity
to rife the pockets of the unwary.
Take my advice and have as close an
approach to an ironclad agreement as
possible with your garcon regarding
the 'demnition total Of your meal be-
fore giving your order. If you don't,
there's trouble and pecuniary loss
ahead. The waiter, with the conniv-
ancet Of the proprietor Of the cafe,
will do all he can to impose upon you.
"One tragic story that can vouch
for may be Of interest to American
tourists. It shows one variety Of res
taurant robbery in Paris illustrating
incidentally French ingenuity. An
American woman gave small lunch
con at we'll known place to half
dozen friends. She had no intention
of making it an elaborate affair. She
knew French ways and had careful
estimate made of the cost of the repast
ordered. After the second course she
noticed that the walters were pressing
upon her guests delicacies for which
she had not stipulated, and. she OBJ
served, too, that a point was made of
asking each person if she would have
some of this, that or the other thing.
These extras were succeeded by 9th
ers, the poor hostess not being able (or
felt she was unable, which amounts to
the same thing to stem the tide rap
idly overwhelming her pocketbook.
When she bad a stormy session with
the proprietor she could get no salts
faction. The things were offered; they
were eaten. of surety, madame had
ordered them, else they would not
have been served. It is impossible
that madame would wish to have con-
sequences most unpleasant?' She
wisely paid the bill, but the experience
cost her dear.

A Great PoIyqlot.

Solomon Caesar Malan habitually
conversed with his children in Latin,
but on his deathbed, when Solomon,
his son, began to recite psalm in the
familiar Vulgate Of his youth, the dy-

''Non tia, non tia! Hebraice;;" SO the
son repeated it in Hebrew.
He could for that matter, just as
well have said it in Coptic or Chinese,
for to him all tongues came naturally.
At eighteen he could write in thirteen
languages, oriental and European, and
among his published works we find

CARS greet one at every corner. Even
in the high class Egyptian families
there are many blind. The lower
classes Of Egyptians are given much
to hasheesh- that is, the lower classes
in the large cities-and, although 1t is
against the law to sell 1t, one will have
the hasheesh places pointed out, and
the men who smoke the drug are seen
everywhere. They are distinguished
by the peculiar appearance of their
eyes, which become red, swollen and
baggy underneath, and by the peculiar
color of the skin, which resembles
somewhat the skin of Chinese opium
