A GOOD STOMACH
Means Good Health, cheerfulness, Am.
bition. Persisteney and Success.

Relief is not cure; opium viii stop
the most eXcruciating pain. but it won't
cure the disease.
And it's just the same with alleged
dyspepsia cures which contain pepsin.
The pepsin will help 10 digest the food,
but the stomach is left in worse condi-
tion than Il was before.
You don't want pepsin TO digest your
food you want the natural juices OF
your stomach to digest your food II
you have dyspepsia or any stomach
trouble you want TO make your stom
ach so strong that il will digest its own
food
You can make your stomach Sc
strong that you can eat what YOU

Mi-o-na will cure your dyspepsia oi
any other stomach trouble by building

In other words, Mi-o-na cures dys-

Nero as an Art Loxar.

One fact redeems to certain extent
| the memory of an emperor whose
name is held in adherence by young
students of history. The fact is that,
whenever excavations have been made
| In grounds known to have belonged to
| Nero, some genuine work of a Greek
master has been sure to come to light.
In other words, the only chance we
have left Of discovering lost master
pieces Is to follow In the footsteps
of Nero and search whatever building
or site Ia known to have been inhab
tied by l1im-whether the golden house
at Rome or the hunting box at Subla-
Queum or the sea cottage at Antium.
Born In the last named place on Dec.
10, A. D. 81, he seems to have been
possessed of double nature, one half
of which was kind, generous, poetic,
artistic, musical, while the other was
unspeakably depraved. Nothing could
show better this contrast in his per-
sonality than a comparison between
two portrait busts, still extant, the
first taken soon after his accession to
the throne, while still guiltless Of dis
sipation, the other after few years Of
shocking decadence and depravity.
The account given by Suetonius of the
first period Of his career Is quite charm
ing. The youth appears to have been de-
voted, body and soul, to sport and art
rather than to the ruling Of the empire.

the Reader.

Arithmetic Made Easy.

The class in business arithmetic in
one of the evening schools is made up
wholly of men who WELD the pickax
and push the shovel during the day.
These men are ambitious to improve
their minds, and the fact that they give
up their evenings to study shows that
they appreciate the value of a trained
mind But they are pathetically stupid
In some things.
con the first evening" said the teach
er. II asked the class, How much IS
six times two? There was no appar-
ent desire to shirk the question, but no
amount of head scratching or knitting
Of brows could bring forth an answer.
"T'll put the question In another
way said 1. Suppose your boss Is
paying you at the rate of 81 day, how
much do you get at the end of a weeks
! work.
Every man had his hand up. Twelve
dollars said one in the first row.
sThese men can think in dollars and
cents quickly enough" said the teach
er, 'but figures are Greek to them

Mlxed Metaphor.

The late Mr.. Richie when chancel-
lor of the exchequer once asserted that
1.-THE question Of moisture In tobacco
Is thorny subject and has long been
a bone Of contention" His immediate
successor in Office, Austen Chamber
lain, remarked at the Liberal Union
clubs dinner that the harvest which
the present government had sown was
already coming home to roost.
Sir William Hart-Dyke has two con-
spicuous "howlers" to his credit-the
description of James Lowther as hay
ing gone to the very top of the tree
and landed big fish and the comfort
ing assurance that his government had
got rid Of the barbed wire entangle-
ments and was now In smooth water.
Among other political examples of mix
ed metaphor are the prediction as
cribed to a labor member that If we
give the house Of lords rope enough
they will soon fill up the cup of their
iniquity and an Irish members COM
plant that a certain government de-
partment is iron bound in red tape

A Fable.

Once Upon a Time there was a
Young Man who met Two Nice Girls,
who were Constantly Together. Now.
be was an Astute Young Man, and he
desired to say Something Pretty and
Agreeable to the Ladies, but he knew
that II he paid a Compliment to One
of them, No Matter which, the Other
would be Hurt.
So he Thought Rapidly for mo-
ment. and then he said:
"Ah, 1 know Why you Two Girls are
Always Together
"Why?' asked the Two Girls.
Because Everybody says that A
Handsome Girl Always Chooses a
Homely One as a Companion, So That
Her Beauty may be Enhanced by the
Contrast"
After Such a Remark, either Both
Girls would be Angry with him or De
lighted
And what Do you think Happened?
The Two Girls Blushed and said he
was A Flatterer and went their way
Together. each Happy for Herself and
Sorry for the Other.-London Answers

A Grateful Grab.

"Alfred Sommerlad, musical director
Of the Devonshire Park theater, East
bourne, and Edgar Bateman, the song
writer, out fishing caught an edible
crab" says an English periodical.
'4They tossed it back into the water.
At that moment an accidental kick
sent the bait box after the crab. There
was one fragment of bait adhering to
the hook, and this was lowered into
the sea, and the anglers left the rod
for time When they returned they
found their basket, which they had
left empty, full to overlooking with
fine founders, soles, rock, whiting
and plaice. The explanation was soon
forthcoming. Painfully making Its
way up the fishing line came the crea-
ture whose life had been spared bear
ing In its nippers fine young conger
eel, which it placed with the other fish
on the basket Then 1t dropped back
into the water. Apparently the CRATE
full crab, knowing that he had caused
the bait to be lost, had deposited f1f-
teen and one-half pounds Of live fish
In the creel as a thank offering for its
life being spared"

Piracv's Romance.

Piracy is as old as history, but we
think of it more particularly as woven
inextricably into the romantic youth
Of the new world The word Itself
suggests first of all to Americans at
least such names as Captain Kidd
Bartholomew Roberts, Captain Ed
ward England. Captain George Low.
Their and that terrifying and dashing
buccaneer Sir Henry Morgan, and the
chief exploits of these men were ac-
complished at the expense of the coast
of North America and the much har-
ried shores of the Caribbean. The his
tory of piracy is full of drama, stir
ring action and daring deeds, and 1t is
on this account rather than because OF
its darker side of fire, murder, killing
and inhuman cruelty that children
even today. years after the last of the
genuine pirates has been swept from
the seas, are constantly playing in imi-
tation Of piratical exploits and that

fascination in reading Of the followers

Several years ago in well known

who had been many years with the
firm, suddenly announced that he was
to be married.
The partners gave him weeks holt
