The James w. Foster Co., Bath,
N. H.
Gentlemen In regard to your Nor
rison's English Liniment, | can say,
after having given it a thorough trial,
that | have never found anything to
take it's place for keeping horses
foot in good healthy growing condi-
ton, and it is an absolute preventive
and cure for thrush.
1t is hardly worth while for me to
write you this testimonial, as the
quantities / use must show you that |
appreciate it's value.
hope to see you over in this part OF
the country before long, when | will
show you what your liniment does for
my horses feet. / can say one thing,
and that is, if it is used during the
period of hard frozen roads, one will
never have hoofbound horses, as it
keeps up the circulation and there is
no chance for congestion or fever.
have used the liniment in cases of sore
throat and colds for my horses inter-
nally with great success, and in cases
of bruises, cuts, or calking in winter,
don't think it has its equal.
Faithfully yours,
(Signed) A. F. Phillips.
Give Morrison's English liniment g
trial, and if it does not prove satisfac
tory, your money will be cheerfully
refunded. Write for free copy of oul

When wan Niaaara Run Dry?


It is stated that a comparison OF
gauge records for a period of twenty
years shows that the land surround
ing the great lakes is being gradually
tilted from northeast to southwest at
such a rate that Of two points 100
miles apart the northern rises i've

level rises about one inch in ten years.
1t is predicted. therefore. that should
this movement continue in about 5000
years all the upper lakes will dis

troit and st. Clair rivers will flow
backward, carrying the water of Lake

A Merited Rsbuke.

At the age of eighty-six Nine Reyn-
olds still found much zest in life,
and, having retained all her faculties,
she felt that few of the physical dis
abilities of her age were of small ac-
count and portended nothing. Her
nephew Thomas was man of much
worth, but of certain tactlessness OF
speech, which always reused the ire
Of his aunt.
A few weeks before the old lady's
eighty-seventh birthday Thomas, who
had been overweighted with business
cares for years, started on trip round
the world which was to consume two
years.
1--WE come to say goodby," he an
nounced when he appeared at his
aunt's house in town fifty miles dis
tant from his home. I'm starting
round the world next week, and as
I'm to be gone two years and perhaps
longer l thought / might not ever

Piled, "but it's something that keeps
going and going forever. Here is an
illustration. / once saw a woman in a
train who had put on her gloves. She

She took it off and buttoned the right
hand glove. Then she saw that in or
der to button her left hand glove she
must take of her, right hand glove
which she did. Then she put on her
left hand glove, buttoned it and put

POOR GIRLS
IN SOCIETY
Wealthy Suffragstte Leader
Tries the Experiment
of Posing Them.
CAUGHT SILLY YOUTHS

New York, Feb. 2S. = Mrs. Alma
Webster Powell, suffragette leader
and wife of A. Judscn Powell, a
wealthy piano manufacturer, who was
the chief speaker at suffragette mass
meeting here, told this remarkable
story:
Il brought two young tablespoon
glrls-from the east side to my resi-
dence and after dressing them in my
most beautiful gowns introduced them
into a select and aristocratic assem-
blage that had come to my home for
the evening.
although members of the poor, self
supporting class, the two young ladies,
genteel and nicely educated, deported
themselves during the reception SO
charmingly that two of the gentlemen
present--who, like the other guests,
possessed no knowledge of the true
social position Of the girls-were much
smitten with them and requested per-
mission to call upon them at their
homes. One Of them was count stay-
ing at the Hotel Majestic A gentle
man possessed of 100000 was also
charmed by one Of the young ladies,
both Of whom looked extremely beau
tiful dressed out as they werefn some
of my most precious Jewels.
'All this strengthens my claim that
wealth and false pride alone make the
social barrier. The wearer of the
shirt waist is plenty good enough for
me-"
Mrs. Powell entered into a TRADE
against bad government and the idle
rich, whom she characterized as being
the arch enemy Of the suffragettes.

Tho Poor Cobbler Who Found Him

1t was in the days of Philip the
Good, duke of Burgundy, that cob
bier mounted royal throne. AS the
duke was travelling one night to
Bruges he came upon a man stretched
upon the ground sound asleep and
bade his attendants carry him to the
palace, strip off his rags and place
him, robed in fine linen, in his own
bed.
When the man awoke next morning
he was addressed as 'your highness"
and astounded to find himself among
such rich surroundings. In vain he
protested that he was no prince, but a
poor cobbler. They asked him what
clothing he would wear and at last
conducted him, splendidly dressed, to
mass in the ducal chapel. Every cere-
mony was observed throughout the
day. The cobbler appeared in public
in his. new role, was received on all
sides by command of the duke with
deep respect and ended his brief reign

If there is big days work have an
old cushion upon which to stand. No
one knows how much 1t will rest the

The irons should be clean and
smooth. The board should be covered
with a cloth in which there are no
Feams or patches, as these make shiny
ktreaks or creases in any garment
pressed over them, which is especially
undesirable IN fine linen or wool

good covering to tack TO the board. and

A piece of beeswax tied up in a rag,

hatiron, will keep 1t smooth and the
bon will glide over the clothes more

In pressing good: or clothes where

pressing is done upon a fiat surface.
