TennYson's Critic.

Here is a Tennyson anocdote which we recently found in a French literary paper, and which We believe will be new to a great many of our readers The laureate. of course. was in the habit of receiving large number of requests for his autograph. As rule he did not reply. But one day he was much impressed by the letter of the young daughter of a country gentle man. and he sent her not only his au- tograph. but an original quatrain. The girl was naturally delighted. Her ia. ther, however, did not allow her to thank the poet, but assumed that re- sponsibility himself He sent the fol lowing letter;
 Dear Sir: l have shown your verses to the schoolmaster He finds that the tails of the g's and the upper part of the h's are very irregular, and that you also forget to cross your ts Aside from that, I thank you fo' your efort."-The Bookman

DEPOSIT EGGS IN THE SEA
Recent Discovery Made by Scientists.

The Straits of Messina are channels of immense depth, through which a wide tide surges. and owing probably to irregularities at the bottom there are whirling eddies which have the ef feet of bringing up from the depths be low many marine creatures which are rarely seen except in the deep sea travis.
 It was here that the larval form ot a fresh water eel was first discovered an incident which threw blaze of light on the life history of a very mys teriOus fish.
 All kinds of theories had been given forth with regard to the propagation of the eel. Some naturalists declared they bred in fresh water. others that they visited the estuary for spawning purposes, but thanks to the discovery off Mossina and later captures of the eel in it's larval form it is now prac ticany certain that after mature eels drop down our rivers in autumn they hir them to exceedingly deep water ir the sea and there deposit their eggs
 From q, egg comes little ribbon shaped creature. the lafeal form. Ir due cou.se this changes into an eel ot suIl smaller size. strange to say, and these small eols- uf eXers afterWard ascend our rivers and there remain until they reach maturity when the3 in their turn descend to the sea and history is repeated

Mild Laxative
 for Baby Free

The child of today is the parent of the future, and whether 1t grows up healthy and strong, or puny and weak, depends upon the intelligence ot its parents, for most children are born into the world healthy, but thousands become future weddings between birth and the age of ten, when the parents are still in greatest control.
 The prime cause of trouble is in the stomach. A baby that Is digesting its food seldom cries and always looks cheer ful; the little child whose stomach IS good romps and plays and never whines; the growing child learns well at school and is eager for fun if its head is clear and its stomach light. and that means II II has no constipation.
 The best and safest way to cure any trregularity of the stomach and bowels In children Is by the use of pr. Caldweils Syrup Pepsn. This is liquid laxative wonderful in its effect as Mrs; John ". Dunham, Apple Creek. O, Mrs. H. L. Cullam Plainville. Ind, and numerous others can testify who give 1t to their children with extraordinary results

FOR CONSTIPATION
A Medicine that Does Not Cost ANY.

Relief.

If you suffer from constipation
in any form whatever, acute or
chronic, we will guarantee to sup
ply you medicine that we honestly
believe will effect permanent re-
lief if taken with regularity and

sonable length of time. Should
the medicine fail to benefit you to
your entire satisfaction we promise
that it shall cost you nothing. r..
No other remedy can be COM
pared with Rexall Orderlies for
the easy, pleasant and successful
treatment of constipation. The
active medicinal ingredient of this
remedy, which is odorless, taste
less and colorless, is an entirely
new discovery. Combined with
other valuable ingredients, it forms
a preparation which is incompar,
able as perfect bowel regulator.
intestinal invigorator and strength.
ener. Rexall Orderlies are. eaten
like candy, and are notable for
their gentle and agreeable action.
They do not cause gripping or any
disagreeable effect or inconven-
fence, and may be taken at any
time, day or night. II
We particularly recommend
Rexall Orderlies for children and
for delicate or aged persons, be-
cause they do not contain any
thing injurious. Unlike other
preparations, they do not create a
habit, but enstead they overcome
the habits acquired through the
use of ordinary laxatlves,
cathartlcs, and harsh phvsic, and
remove the causes of constipation
or irregular bowel action that are
not of surgical variety.
We want you to try Rexall
Orderlies at our risk. We know of
nothing that will do you so much
good. They are prepared IN

SHOULD UNITE AGAINST COMMON ENEMY.

The Bemidji Pioneer opines that
allegiance to the G.. O. P. is about
the safest principle to follow. Yes,
that is what Aldrich and Cannon
have been preaching ever since the
progressive Republicans have been
making things unpleasant for the
congressional leaders, but those
insurgent congressman don't seem to
think Aldrich and Cannon are the
party.-Duluth ws-Tribune.
The "insurgent" and "stand-pat''
opponents will undoubtedly gel
together before any very serious
damage is done to either of the
beligerants or to the e. O. p; and
that agreement will be reached much
sooner by the two uniting against
the common enemy, democracy.

Japan of Secretary KnoX's proposal

a benefit proportionate with the sacri-

Although the government officials
