Robin Kills an Adder.
In a vigorous battle between a rob
in and an adder 14 inches long, tba
bird killed the snake. The fight took
place in the garden of George S.
Jones, in Leominster, Mass., and was
seen by John A. Hannis and others.
The robin had a nest of little ones in
an apple tree near the garden. When
the snake wriggled across the field
toward the tree the bird swooped
down and attacked it vigorously with
claws and bill, aiming its attacks at
the head of the adder, which spat and
hissed, but was soon put out of the
battle. Not, however, on tbe . first
round, as it gradually came to after
the robin had left it and began to
move. The bird discovered the motion
and flew again at the snake, not leav
ing it until it was dead.-Boston

Bad Stomach-Short Breath
Bloat!)]?- Sour Eructations
Irregular Heart, Bte.
Take a Mull's Vafer any time of the day
or night, and note the immediate good ef
fect on your stomach. It absorbs the gas,
disinfects the stomach, kills the poison
germs and cures the disease. Catarrh of
th? head and throat, unwholesome food
and overeating make bad stomachs.
Scarcely any stomach is entirely free from
taint of some kind. Mull's Anti-Belch
Wafers will make your stomach healthy
by absorbing foul gases which arise from
the undigested food and by re-enforcing
the lining of the stomach, enabling it to
thoroughly mix the food with the gastric
juices. Thia cures stomach trouble, pro
motes digestion, sweetens thc breath, stops
belching and fermentation. Heart action
becomes streng and regular through this
process.
Discard drugs, as yon know from experi
ence they do not cure stomach trouble.
Try a common-sense (Nature's) method
that does cure. A soothing, healing sen
sation results instantly. *
We know Mull's Anti-Belch Wafers will
do this, and we want you to know it.

had not money enough with her to
pay for it. She had never opened an
account in this particular shop, and
it was therefore agreed'that the'clerk
should put the goods aside until the
next day, when the purchaser should
come for lt with caph in hand.
When the woman returned the day
following to get her embroidery she.
could not remember which of the'
saleswomen had waited upon. . her.
After puzzling over the matter for a
moment, however, she approached one
who looked vaguely familiar and ask
ed, "Am I the woman who bought
some embroidery here yesterday?"
"Yes'm," replied the. girl, stolidly,

That Hissing at Winthop.
. Columbia, Special.-0. B. Martin,
State Superintendent of Education,
received from Winthrop College the
following resolutions which is in part
explanitory: "Whereas, we, the stu
dents of Winthrop College, have heard
of tbe disrespect shown certain mem
bers of the board of trustees by a few
.students of the coll?ge because cf the
decision of the board not to give
Chrietmas holiday, therefore, be it
resolved, that we, in meeting assem
bled, do hereby condemn unqualifiedly
such expressions of discontent and ex
press our regret that any student
should have so far forgotten what was
due to herself, to the college, and to
the trustees as to have acted in such
a manner. Resolved, further, That
this resolution be communicated to the
president of the college with the re
puest that a copy be sent to each mem
ber of the board to. whom the disres
pect was shown." The resolution
amused Mr. Martin a little, for he had
not, so far as he knows, been the re
seipent of any discourteous treatment
at the hands of thc AYinthrop stu
dents. A rumor reached here several
days ago to the effect that Senator
Tillman and other trustees had been
hissed at Winthrop but the members
of the board who reside in Columbia
and were present at the meeting when
questioned about it entered denial.
The resolution formally adopted by
the students of Winthrop indicates
that there must have been some in
tended discourtesy offered to some of
the members of the board or the con
demnatory resolutions would not have
been necessary.

Tho better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity,
who da roto their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and
pures; medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians' prescriptions and
Ecisntinc formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but
always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines.
They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes
all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and
best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances.
The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits
conferred Upon theil' patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest
reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of
Figs is aii excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they
aro selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest
remedies, and they always1 take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full
name of the Company-California Fig Syrup Do.-printed on the front of every package*
. They knovr that in cases of colds-and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and
' of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or
over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as
Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction.
Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the
immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but /there are
individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles
of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate
to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations
sometimes have the name-" Syrup of Figs"-or "Fig Syrup" and of some piratical concern,
c^fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of
the Company-California Fig Syrup Co.-printed on the front of the package. The imitations
should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In .order to sell the imitations
they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes
off on a customer a preparation under the name of "Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup," which
does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package,
he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as fofenter his
establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and
and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of
physicians' prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness.
Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand
for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every
where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as.exceptions
exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline- or return
any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company
California Fig Syrup Co.-printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the
article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of
druggists who willsell you what you wish and triebest of everything in his line at reasonable prices.

Useful Ideas cf Two Women.
The idea of the reaper was suggest
ed by a Virginia lady who, in an
emergency, tied together two pairs of
shears and instructed a negro man
how to clip a grass plot. That hum
ble instrument of comfort, so exten
sively manufactured in America, the
safety pin, was the suggestion of her
majesty Queen Victoria.
He Was Detained
'Td have been ont f.en days sooner,"
said the man, who had just been lib
erated from prison, "if it hadn't been
for the chaplain."'
"And what did he h*ve to do with
it?" was asked.
"It was him that had me detained
up there. He comes to my cell one
afternoon to see how I was getting
.qn, and after a little he asks:
. " 'And what crime did you commit,
my man,..t!iat jtb.ay sent you here?
"Tt''was. highway robbery, your
reverence,' says I, 'and now give me
your confidence and tell me what you
are in for.'"-Cleveland Plaindealer.

Suggestions How to Find Relief from Such
Suffering.
While no woman is entirely free from
periodical suffering, it does not seem to
be the plan of nature that women
should suffer so severely. Menstrua
ci?n is a severe strain on a woman's
vitality. If it is painful or .irregular
something is wrong which should be
set right or it will lead to a serious de
rangement; of the whole female organ
ism.
More than fifty thousand women
have testi?ed ingrateful letters to Mrs
Pinkham that Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound overcomes pain
ful and irregular menstruation.
It provides a safe and sure way of es
cape from distressing and dangerous
weaknesses and diseases.
The two following letters tell so con
vincingly what Lydia E. Pinkhr?'m's
Vegetable Compound will do for
women, they cannot fail to briny hope
to thousands of sufferers.
Miss Nellie Holmes of 540 N. Davi
sion Street, Buffalo, N. Y., writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
" Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine
for women. I suffered misery foi- years, with
painful periods, headaches, and bearing-down
pains. I consulted two different physicians
but failed to get any relief. A f. .end from
the East advised me to try Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound. I did so, and
no longer suffer as I did before. My periods
are natural ; every ache and pp'.n is gone, dud
my general health it much improved. I
advise all women who suffer to take Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound."
Mrs. Tillie Hart, of Larimore, N. D.,
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
I might have have been spared many
months of suffering and pain had I only
known of tide ottioacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound sooner: for I have tried
so many remedies without help.
" I dreaded the approach of my menstrual
period every month, as it meant so much pain
and suffering for me, but after I had used tb?
Compound two months I became regular and
natural and am now perfectly well and free
from pain at. my monthly periods. I am very
grateful for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound has done for me."
Such testimony should be accepted
by all women as convincing evidence
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound stands without a peer as a
remedy for all the distressing ills of
women.
The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound rests upon the
well-earned gratitude of American
women.
When women ave troubled with irreg
ular, suppressed or painful menstrua
tion, leucorrhcea, displacement or ul
ceration of the womb, that bearing
down feeling, inflammation of the
ovaries, backache, bloating, (or flatu
lency), general debility, indigestion and
nervous prostration, or are beset with
such symptoms as dizziness, faintness,
lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner
vousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
they should remember there is one tried
and true remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound at once removes
such troubles. Refuse to buy any other
medloine, for you noed the best.
Don't hesitate te write to Mrs.
Pinkham if there is anything
about your sickness you do not
understand. Site will treat you
with kindness and her advice is
free. No woman ever regretted
writing her and she has helped
t housands. Address Lynn, Mass.
. A River, That Bridges Itself.
For a - stretch of twenty-two miles
the River Colorado, in Texas, has
bridged itself with logs' of woodr
which have jammed so tightly from
one bank to the other that even dyna
mite is powerless to clear a .way. lt
was at first only a slight jam of logs,
which three or four men could have
dealt with effectively; ' but it has
grown at an enormous rate, and, in
some places, has become solid ground',
\yith vegetation and trees growing
upon it. Roads have been cdt
through, over which teams cross from
bank to bank as unconcernedly as
though a great river was not rolling
swiftly underneath. The monster raft
has become an object of interest to
tourists, but the authorities are tak
ing steps to break up the bridge as
soon as possible.-Montreal Herald.
