Old Trick Didn't Work.

The fiction of the friend who is 60
ing to occupy the seat in the railway
train that one has really secured as
an extra for oneself sometimes works
and sometimes doesn't. A passenger
hurrying along the platform, just be
fore the train started, flung himself
upon a seat that was already occu
pied by a large bag.
'That seat is TAKEN" snapped mo-
rose old gentleman; my friend has
kept it with his bag"
Indeed" said the willy passenger at
fably; "then I'll occupy it till hi
comes.",
OF course the friend never came
and therefore, just as the train was
moving out of the station the willy pas
senger seized the bag and deliberately
threw it out of the window.
"What are you doing with that bag
sir?" Numbered the old gentleman, flu
riously.
"Anything the matter?" inquired the
other. calmly. "You don't want your
friend to lose his bag, do you?"

There are great many people who
would be much benefited by taking
Chamberlain Tablets for a weak or
disordered stomach. Are you one of
them? Mrs. M. r. Scarf, Balwins-

the use of these tablets: II had a
bad spell with my stomach about six
months ago, and was troubled for two
or three weeks with gas and severe
pains in the pit Of my stomach. Our
druggist advised me to take Chamber
lain's Tablets. I took bottle home
and the first dose relieved me won

until I was cured" These tablets do
not relieve pain, but after the pain
has been relieved may prevent it's re-

the more lightly compressed disks and

method of preparation Of these last is
curious; the leaves, in state Of wilt,

Something About Fish.

Did it ever occur to you that there
might be reason for fish being dark
on the back and light underneath!
When we look into the water, it seems
so very dark, and we can scarcely dis
tinguish any fish, although they may
be very near the surface. And an en-
envy, looking from below, could easily
see the fish if it were, not for the fact
that the lower part of the body is a
light color. Thus we find that the dark
back protects the fish from the enemy
above the water, and the light on the
underside of the body protects it from
the enemy living far down in the wa
tiers beneath.
