Man Whose Memory Was Bad.

For more than an hour a witness
for the defense had lodged questions.
His faulty memory was particularly
exasperating for the counsel for the
plaintiff, who was seeking to recall
to the witness recollection an event
of four of five years previous Event
ually the man remembered some
thing about it,"
"Ah," continued the lawyer for the
plaintiff, what id you think of it
at the time?"

Mrs. Wilson's husband was often
Obliged to go to New York on busi-
ness, and frequently did not reach his
home until the arrival of the midnight
train. Mrs. Wilson had been in the
habit of sleeping peacefully at these
times without fear, but a number Of
burglaries in the neighborhood during
one Of her husbands trips to New
York had disturbed her calm.
On the night of his return Mr.. Will

A REAL "Hoss" RACE.
Country Fair the Place to See 1t at
Its Best.

II you would see a horse strap
ped, booted, braced and geared to
the limit, you must seek such a
track as you see at the old-time
country fair. Here comes an awk-
ward flea-bitten gray which never
went under 2:50 in his life. He is
hobbied and checked and goggled, and
hitched up sidewise, lengthwise and
crosswise until there is more har-
ness than horse. You wonder how
his driver ever got him into this rig
ging, and how he will get him out
again without cutting him free with
jackknife. A farmer with a
gray beard and twinklipg eye OBJ
serves to his neighbor:
Last time John Martin had that
plug out on the road l told him he

Cats as Plaque Preventive.

An Italian correspondent of the
North China Daily News writes: THE
newspapers have latterly been full of
all sorts of suggestions for the stamp
ing out of plague. For instance, never
kill rats; If you do the fatal rat flea
may be driven to feed on you. Also,
compel each householder to keep
cats. In fact, let the cult of the cat
as it prevailed in ancient Egypt be re-
vived in India. Plenty of cats, no

years ago by poor young girl. who

Where is she?" asked Esterhazy,
in an unsteady voice, and as glanced
at him in surprise, l saw that his eyes
were luminous with feeling.

face was fairly growing pale with ex-

teacher; 'yolder is our reception

RHEUMATISM RECIPE
PREPARE SIMPLE HOMEMADE
MIXTURE YOURSELF.
Buy the ingredients from Any Drug
sst in Your Town and Shake
Them in a Bottle to
Mix This.

A well-lknown authority on Rheu-
matism gives the readers of large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simple and harmless
prescription, which any one can easily
prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
ing a vegetable extraction, are harm
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, If taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of even
the small towns ehcits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
viii mix the prescription if asked to.

Two Weird Yarns.

From the Chicago News.
 In the medical press is a story of a man who believed that he was dead and who for that reason refused to take any nourishment. How can the dead cat and drink?" he asked, when food was pressed upon him. It was obvious that unless something were done to bring him to his senses the delusion must soon be- come actuality: he would die fo starva- ton. The strangest ruse was tried. Half a dozen attendants, draped in ghostly white, crept silently in single file into the room adjoining his, and, with the door open, sat down where he could see them at hearty meal. Here, who are these peope?" inquired the patient. "Dead men," answered the doctor. "Whatn' said the other. Do dead men eat?' ITO be sure they do as you see for yourself" was the answer. Well" said the corpse, If that is so I'll Join them, for Pm starving" The spell was broken, and he sat down and ate like forty famished men.
 One of the cemeteries near Naples has been the scene of a crime that shows curious recrudescence of medieval su- perstition. A little girl was buried there in July, 1905, and twelve months later it was arranged to transfer the remains to niche in the little mortuary chapel. At the eXhumation suspicion was aroused by the extraordinarily light weight of the coffin, which, on being opened, was found to contain only the child's skull wrapped in straw. Professors Antonelli and Finn iani. who examined the head declared that it had been ruthlessly torn from the trunk son after death. The police in- vestigations have resulted in the discov- cry that the girls body was disinterred and the bones pulverized to serve for the rites of necromancy and witchcraft, which are still so much in vogue among super stitous peasantry of that region.

 From Last Week.
MONEY SITUATION INFIRM

New York June 26.-The principal inter- est in todays stock market centered in the technical position in the market and an inference as might be derived as to the character of the demand which sprang up yesterday and started the upward movement of prices The effect was to confirm pretty confidently the supposition of the professional nature of the move ment. The early dealings today showed the market still in skillful hands and the appearance of activity and strength was we'll maintained during the period of profit taking sales. Later the appearance was not so favorable, and the organized sup port of prices was not pursued, presuma- bly, because the process of realizing prof it's had been successfully concluded. The result was disappointment to the fol- lowing that had locked for prolongation of the movement over the end of the month as it was expected that the rein vestment of profits to be dishursed next month might be the objects in view by the operators of the advance. The taking of quick profits proved the greater attrac- ton, however in view of prossible contin- gencles over the first of the month.
 The money market showed no immediate indication of coming stringency and the reaction in foreign exchange. which prom ises to put a stop to the outward move ment of gold went farther today. This movement was made much of yesterday as a reliance for averting the threatened strain on the local money market. Today's statement of subtreasury, operatinons in fact showed a loss by the banks to that institution since last Friday of B, ,00o, GOO, which Is a sufficiently threatening pros pect of the heavy credit requirements of the end of the half year in view of an existing surplus of less than $6, ,00c 600 held by the banks last Saturday. The forth- coming sale on Friday of s29, ,O0o, 600 of New York city per cert bonds came in for renewal consideration today. The en- couraging effect of Mondays bond sale on the hopes of a success for the New York offering had been passed away to some extent today and there was renewed anxiety over the sentimental effect to the investment situation, on failure to place these bonds

market is much relied on to ease the sus- picion in the local market over the turn of the half year. Beyond that period ac- count is beginning to be taken of the ef- fleets of the withdrawal of government de- posits from the national banks to the amount of 80 GOO 900 which Is set for July 10. There has been a declining tendency in the treasury's figures of the outstand- ing deposits with national banks which looks as though some repayments were being made already in anticipation of the call of July 10. London was a buyer of securities to a moderate extent and helped on the early rise. A sharp rebound in the London price of copper was help, also, to the copper industrials.
 There was some revival of crop damage reports and this may have added to the late reaction in stocks. It had much more the appearance, however, of reaction from yesterdays sharp advances and of demonstration of the continued narrow dimensions of the present market. The closing tone was easy with losses more numerous than gains Bonds were ir regular. Total sales par value, s104s,o0o United State bonds were unchanged on call
