SPRY AND ACTIVE
 AT THE AGE OF 1O5.
President Mott Couldn't Understand
 Agility Of c. E. Perkins.

Illustrative of the longevity of the Perkins family-originaIl from Nor wich-Charles E. Perkins. the octO- egnarian lawyer of his city says the Hartford Times, tells an anecdote of President Nott of Union college and Edward Perkins of Norwich, which happened some time ago. Edward Perkins was a relative of the narrator. Mir. Perkins says that President NOtt was an active gentleman of 94 years and proud of his vitality and agility, and in fact, was rather jealous of any aged gentlemen who were anywhere near as active as he. It sc happened that President Nott one day in a cer- tain city observed Edward Perkins, stranger to him-run and catch a nov ing street car on which the Schenec- tady college president was riding. MT. Perkins had the appearance of being considerably past the meridian of life, and it is surmised that President Mott was nettled little at the successful acrobatics of MT. Perkins At any rate he said to him:
 That was pretty well done, but when you get to be as old as l am you will find that little more difi- cult"
 How old are you?" inquired MT Perkins.
 q am 94 years" proudly answered the college president
 Well, sir I am 1O5 years old, truthfully remarked MT. PerKlns.

4 Reasonable Plea
 For the Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking In Diges tive Power, Why Not Help the
 Stomach Do It's Work
Especially When It Costs Nothing
 To TrY


 Not with drugs, but with rein forcement of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach! Scientific analysis shows that dlges- tion requires pepsin, nitrOgenous Ter nientS and the secretion of hydrochlo- ric acid. When your food fails to dl- gest, it is proof positive that some or these agents are lacking in your dl- gestive apparatus.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach and small intestines, supply what these or gans need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the diges- 1 tive organs back to their normal con- dition
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have 1 been subjected to critical chemical | tests at home and abroad and are | found to contain nothing but natural l digestives.

 ADVICE TO BEAUTY SEEKERS

Mary B.-You are foolish to feel so hopeless about your freckles. They are really very easily and quickly driven away. Irecommend that you secure 50c jar of Wilson's Freckle Cream, either at your drug store or from the Wilson Freckle Cream Co. at Charleston, S. C., and use it every night as per directions. I have found this prepa- ration remarkably effective and it is absolutely harmless.

ANCIENTS INVENTED CANDY.
Sugar Plum" Perhaps, Boasts Of
the Greatest Antiquity.

From the international Confectioner.
OF all candles perhaps the sugar
plum boasts the most ancient lineage
1t was the invention of one Julius ORA
gatus, q noted Roman baker and confec-
TONER member of the family OF the
Fabii.
Dragatus put forth the first specimen
of this CONNECTION in the year III BIC.
The bonbons of this variety were called
dragati, after their inventor (dragees in
FRENCH, and their manufacture consti-
tuted monopoly enjoyed exclusively by
the Fabian family. Whenever there was
birth or 4 marriage In that family a
great distribution OF dragati took place
as an evidence of rejoicing. This Gus
tom Is still retained by certain OF the
old noble families of Europe.
The pastille is of a far later origin. 1t
was invented and introduced into France
by an Italian confectioner. the Fiorentine
Maria de Medici married Henry w Of
patron to the French court, where his
bonbons soon achieved a tremendous
vogue. Everybody ate the Florentines
candies. They were offered I'm all havors.
Burnt almonds are a CONNECTION OF pure
~ French origin, owing their inception to
the gluttony of u French merchant. One
day, tradition has 1t, Marshal Duplessis-
Pralin sent for Lassagne. the inventor
Of many toothsome dainties. and bade
him concoct a new bonbon. Lassagne
searched, reflected. combined. until lie
finally hit upon the confection of burnt
almonds, which were baptized with the
name of the old gourmet. the French
for burnt almonds.
