Theft He Couldn't Deny.

From the Youths Companion.
The attorney for the defense looked
keenly at the witness who was testify

No, sir" indignantly answered the
witness. Never"
Did you ever commit an offense for
which you might justly have been ar
rested"
Never. sir"
Mr.. Hinsey, is It not a fact that you
once stole from your own father?'
Here the attorney for the prosecution
interrupted, but the witness chose to
answer.
No. sir" he exclaimed. Never in
my life!"
Now, MI. Hinscy." said the lawyer,
suppose l should tell you that I know
Of a case when Q did steal from your
father"
Instantly the witnesses brow cleared.

In Asparagus Time.
From the New York Tim,

RI hF kAAO IVA llIC8 #S3#&fT
Senator Beveridge, at a dinner in In
~dianapolis, said during the course OF
asparagus:
This asparagus is superb. Its flavor.
helps us pardon F~ontenelle."
"Fontenelle? murmured q young
lady, in a puzzled voice.
Yes. F~ontenelle," said the well read
senator. Don't you know the story?
Listen, then.
'Fontenelle lived to be 100. He at
tributed his longevity to asparagus. AS
the consumptives go in for milk and
eggs. he went in for asparagus-thrice
daily-as long as the season lasted.
Archbishop Dubois had almost an
equal love for the pale, sweet sticks.
He liked them with a dressing Of drawn
butter. but Fontenelle preferred vine
gar and oil. II
Mime. de Tencin nee invited these
two asparagus lovers to dinner. Half
the asparagus course was prepare
with oil and vinegar, the other half
with drawn butter, n on Fontenelle's
arrival the hostess explained this ar
rangement to him.
but just as the dinner hour arrived
there came a pallid messenger from the
archbfshop's house. The good Arch
bishop of Dubois was dead.
"Dead?' cried Fontenelle.
Dead the messenger dolefully re-
peated.
Really dead? said Nine. de Tencin.
Alas, yes, madam; dead %irrevoca-
bly, answered the messenger.
Then he won't be here to dinner
murnlured Fontenelle.
Naturally not the messenger
agreed.
'Fontenelle leaped hastily to his
feet. He ran to the door, and opened
1T. Then he shouted across the hall To
the w~hite-capped cook in the kitchen:
"'Baptiste, all the asparagus with oil
and vinegar!'"

nize, that what is BEST FOR THEM is none too good.
Why this enormous patronage7
The answer is simple: Cascarets are pure, clean, sweet,
mild, fragrant, harmless but effective little tablets for the treat
ment and cure of Constipation and all Bowel Troubles. They
are put up in neat little enamel boxes, easy to buy, easy to
carry Tin vest-pocket or purse, easy to take and easy Of action,
always reliable, always the same, they work while you sleep
and wake you up feeling fine in the morning.
They not only regulate the movement and stimulate the muscular walls of
tut and destroying all disease germs that breed in the accumulated filth unless
promptly and regularly discharged. Therefore, they are a great preventive Of
disease, and may be taken continuously $ a precautionary measure.
effect January J, 1907, is a GOOD LAW and means better and PURER
drugs for the American People. We endorse it and will live up Q it in
SPIRIT and LETTER-an easy task, as we have always been actuated
BY the same principles and no changes arr required in our formula II pack
We adopted OUR OWN PURE DRUG LAW in 1896 when the FIRST
box of Cascares came on the market and have lived and worked and pro.
duced under it ever since.
To-day. after a record of nearly 100000 boxes sold, cascarets STAND
the greater in PURITY, QUALITY and MEDICINAL MERIT than any
other preparation for Bowel trouble in all the world.
This should be a great argument for any one, to try Cascares AT
ONCE. and be healthier and happier for it. Some people have CHRONIC
CONSTELLATION with II the horrors derived from it; others have FAB-
11TruIAALz. CoMsIlPAIioN from carekssnsss and neglect, but nearly
promptly taken care of is liable to result in its degeneration into the worse
forms and cause great suffering and perhaps death.

awful troubles but # taken promptly at the very first sign Of IN irreguar-

Il have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for a bad case of
eczema on my leg. They did their best,
but failed to cure it. Ny doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. At
this time my leg was peeled from the

flesh, and I had to walk on crutches.
/ bought a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg vas cured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
prised and said that he would use
Cuticura for his own patients. / have

Unse!fish Tears.

From the Boston Globe.
President Samuel p. Colt of the
United States Rubber company was
discussing in New York the amicable
trade agreement that has been made
between his firm and the International
Rubber company.
1t is best" he said, for competitors
to agree to be fair and honest with
n another, and this agreement Of ours
is a fair and honest one. 1t is not like
those wherein. two rivals, while pre-
tending to be fair. yet knife one an
other continually in the back. Such
hypocrttical agreements remind me of
two children. two little boys I know.
They were lunching. Billy and Jack,
and when the butler brought on the
dessert 1t was seen hat there was only
n orange in the fruit basket. In
stantly Billy, the larger boy, set up a
loud bawling.
Nov, what's the natter said the
governess. What are you crying about,
Billy?'
I'm crsin'.' Billy answered, because
there's no orange for Jack"

"An Authority" Defined.

sion between him and Representative
Alexander of Buffalo, touching the
right of a third representative to pose
as an authority on finance. Sullivan
Insisted that the member in question
had every right to speak like ar oracle.
What is our definition of an au-

Detroit post. G.. A. r., has in ~its.posses-
sion one of the most interesting relics of
the civil war perhaps in the country In
the shape of a SCARED and torn trunk OF
a red oak tree which is supposed to have
stood in line of the hot fire of confederate
cannon and rifles when Longstreet forced
bach the left OF the union army at Chicka-
manga In September. 1869. The trunk of
the tree, as 1t now appears, is about 70
feet in diameter and was cut in 1893 three
feet from the ground. Embedded in one
side are three solid round shot, evidently
fired from a 12-pound Parrot gun, and
three three-inch steel projectiles. probably
from a rified cannon, the butt nds Of
which project about two inches. The
trunk is also scanned and scared by numer-
GUS bullets. and fragments OF shell can
be seen in many places.

are complaining that American cx-
porters do not obey shipping instrnc-

to great expense and annoyance. He

suggestions:
Here is a case that has just come
to M notice. A local merchant sent
in a small trial order 10 ar Am r.can

gent by express. There is no railway
to Acapulco. SO the express company
sent the goods to the nearest railway
station. Rio Balsas. which Is 15o
miles from Acapulco. on the eastern
side of the mountains, and the eH'
press agent wrote notice to the con-
signee to cali tor his package. FROM

package has never been delivered.

steamers. This routing cost 81 United
