TOO FAIR FOR USEFUL WORK
Charming Compliment Credited to Bishop Potter May Have Had
 Touch of Sarcasm.

"The- late Bishop Potter" said a famous beauty at a dinner in New YeEk, ''could pay charming compli- ments. He paid me a charming compliment when l was a young girl.
 ''It was at a country house in Yer mont. Bishop Potter was very busy in the library one morning when 1 entered. He at once asked me to help him-he gave me a list of fnarity subscriptions to add up.
 ''As l set to work, Bishop Potter, bending over me, said:
 "'You must forgive me. I have grave compunctions about asking you to do anything useful. It is as if one should eat hash from a gold dish carved by Benvenuto Cellini, or use for napkin a square of Venetian lace"

ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR A GOOD STOMACH This Offer Should Be a Warning To
 Every Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical journals recently have had much to say relative to a famous millionaires' offer of million dollars for a new stomach.
 This great ti-millionaire was too busy to worry about the condition of his stomach. He allowed his dyspepsia to run from bad to worse until in the end it became incurable.
 His misfortune serves as a warning to others.
 Everyone who suffers with dyspepsia for few years will give everything he owns for a new stomach.
 Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal state of the gastric juices. There IS one element missing. The absence of this destroys the function of the gastric fluids. They lose their power to digest food.
 We are now able to supply the missing element ito restore to the gastric juices their digestive power, and to make the stomach strong and well.
 We know that Rexall Dyspepsia Tab lets will positively and permanently cure disordered stomachs, indigestion and dys- pepsia.
 We want you to try them and will return your money if you are not more than satisfied with the result
 Price, zs cents, Only at our store, oF by mail.

The weird spectacle of dead man standing erect and unsupported in a churchyard was recently witnessed at Stinfold, Sussex, where Maurice Ganaway, laborer, 37, had hanged himself to yew tree. His feet touched the ground, and when the rope was taken off the body remained erect for half an hour until laid prone by the doctor who was called. Rigor mortis had set in, and two small twigs under the feet main tained the balance of the body.
