MIMS, Optician Edgefield, - - - S. C Genuine Sardinas. Genuine sardines are the young of the pilchard. Their name comes from the fact that they are most numerous off the coast of Sardinia. They swim lu the spring in shoals containing mil lions-fish shaped shoals'ten miles long and a half mile wide. The sardines are netted and taken at once to the shore. There they are washed, scraped and sprinkled with salt. The salt is soon removed, the heads and gills cut off and there is another washing. Then, on beds of green brush, the fish are dried in the sun. Next they are bolled in olive oil till cooked thoroughly. The packers-women always-take them now and pack them in the tin boxes we all know, filling up each box with bolling oil, fitting on the lid and mak ing the boj air tight by soldering the Joints together with a jet of hot steam. Sardines* are more or less perfect ac cording as they are prepare^nore or less immediately ofter their capture and according as the oil they are pack ed in is more or less pure. The Young French Girl. A young French girl enters the thea ter with her father. She takes her seat directly In front of the privileged American girls "finishing" their edu cation. Her untouched flowerlike face ls alight with anticipated pleasure, with a soft vividness of intelligence that could never be cursed with the word "brainy." Her hair is bound with a little old. fashioned snood and tiny buckle; a strangely simple even ing dress covers the exquisite ardor of her slender body. Quickly four faces, the faces of the overindulged, the overprecocious, the overnthletic and the overdressed, turn to study her. There ls something to learn in this lit tle French maid, whose eyes never meet a man's, who is never allowed to walk alone on the street, whose un conscious grace envelops her like a veil, who ls sheltered like a delicate bird, yet trained to the utmost energy, reserve, accomplishment and useful ness.-Atlantic. Wall Street Superstition. Almost all the Wall street specula tors are superstitious fellows who be lieve in charms and amulets. In their pockets they carry lucky coins, a rab bit's foot, a horse chestnut or some thing of the kind. One Wall street i man, much envied by his companions, has a short piece of a hangman's rope to conjure with. Many of the custom ers in the offices are even more credu lous than the professional traders in their belief in signs and omens. There is a deep seated tradition that Tues day is "low day" in a "bull market" and "high day" in a "bear market." Some persons speculate on "systems," and others employ "charts." Once they exploited a machine In Wall street known as a "market register." It was about as effective as helping anybody to win at Stock Exchange speculation as it is to rub up against a hunchback for luck'just before yon bet on a horse race.-Munsey's Magazine. He Got Valuable Information. The story is told of the times of Aretas Blood and the old Manchester locomotive works that a student came to Mr. Blood once and wanted to study the business of locomotive building in his vacation days. The student came well recommended, and Mr. Blood, who never had much use for these .fech" people, sent him down to the boiler shop and placed him in charge of the old foreman. The old man took the "tech" man around, and in the course of the inspection of the shop they came across one boiler on the In side of which was a man at work. "How does that man get out?' in quired the "tech" man. "Oh," said the venerable pilot, "he doesn't get out. We always count upon losing at least one man in build ing a boiler."-Manchester Union. Napoleon Obeyed the Mob. In "The Corsican-A Diary of Na poleon's Life In His Own Words," Bonaparte tells how, as an obscure sol dier, he witnessed some of the open ing scenes of the revolution: "I lodged Bue du Mall, Place des Victories. At the sound of the tocsin and at the news that the Tuileries were attacked I started for the Carousel. Before I had got there In the Rue des Petits Champs I was passed by a mob of hor rible looking fellows parading a head stuck on a pike. Thinking I looked too much of a gentleman, they wanted me to 6hout 'Vive la nation!' which I did promptly, as may easily be imagined." When a Great Man Diet. There can be but austere and serions thoughts in all hearts when a sublime spirit makes Its majestic entrance into another life, when one of those beings' who have long soared above the crowd on the visible wings of genius, spread ing all at once other wings which we did not see, plunges swiftly into the unknown.-From Hugo's Funeral Ora tion on Balzac. The Change. "He used to complain because he never got what he wanted to eat." "Yes, but he's rich now." "Yes, and now he complains because he never wants what he gets to eat." Catholic Standard and Times. Inherited. Knicker-Jones has a bad memory. Booker-His mother never knew what were trumps, and his father couldn't remember anything on the witness stand.-New York Sun. The Stage and Society. Blobbs-Society women are still go ing on the stage. Slobbs-But the Stage is overcrowded now. Blobbs-So ia society.-Philadelphia Record.

Adam Bonoff, manager of the Krug theatre in Omaha, Neb., and iiving at 1511 north seventeenth street, that city, in a statement giv en for publication, says: . "I have been a sufferer from stom ach trouble for the past ten years, and had to avoid potatoes and all starchy food. I was nervous and restless, rarely ever gettting a good night's sleep. I always awoke with a dull pain in my stomach, and belched gas frequently. I was con stipated all the time. "I traveled considerably in search of health, and treated with the best] physicians in New York, Chicago and Hot Springs without relief, and finally was compelled to give up my business, as I thought for good. "A'friend recommended Cooper's New Discovery to me. I was desper- j ate, and decided to give it a trial. Am now feeling fine, eating and sleeping well, without any signs of stomach trouble, weighing more than at any other period of my life, having gained fifteen pounds in a j few week's time. It is a duty with me to recommend Cooper's New Discovery, for I believe it saved my life." We sell Cooper's New Itfscovery, the medicine recommended by Mr. Bonoff.
