"I find the trained nurses brave enough in most cases of contagious dis ease." said a Brooklyn doctor, "but there is one thing at which they balk." "What's that," asked a friend-L "smallpox?" "No; cancer. They have all the un trained woman's horror of that dis ease. The most faithful of them will go without an engagement for ,weeks rather than take a cancer case. Yet the peril is slight compared-with what they face almost without thought" "Isn't it contagious?" "A malignant case Is if a scratched hand is brought Into contact with the cancer. Three cancers out of four, however, are not malignant and can be dressed without gloves safely. The trained nurses balk at all of them." Brooklyn Eagle. Endorsed by a Mfister. Rev. Parker IEmes, pastor of the first M. E. church, South Hickory,- N. C., says: "I have used Rydale's stomach Tablets for indigestion and regard them as a perfect remedy for this dis ease. I take please in recommending them to all sufferers from indigestion." Use Rydale's Stomach Tablets for your trouble and. you will join Dr. Holmos in this strong endorsement. These tablets will enable your stomach to digest your food, and thus nourish the body and prevent the partial starv ation from which all dyspeptics suffer.

These guns, argued the learn ed captain, were not Intended for peace and the utterance of good will toward men, but to inflict as much mischief and destruction on human be ings in time of war as their namesake, the devil, tries to do at all times.

The sack race for grown men is the delight of all the children, who love to see their fathers tied up in sacks and progressing by kaingaroo-likc bounds, whose uncertainty is made still more precarious by the pitch and roll of the great vessel.

In the days before the dawn of his fame it was the practice of a certain well known author to wander up and down the land seeking what he might devour in the way of suggestion and local color. In this way he had drifted into Arkaasas, "roughing it," and not, as he expresses it, presenting an ap peatance calculated to inspire a hotel proprietor with unlimited confidence. The only hotel in the town, a frame ,structure, seemed to have been built upon the theory that there was plenty of room straight up, but that ground had to be bought, and the wanderer was shown to a room on the third floor. reached through many narrow and winding passages. From the one window it was a straight drop to the ground. w I "Say, how would I get out of this place in case of fire?" he asked the landlord, who bad brought up his grip. The other eyed him- coldly. "Waal," he drawled, "all- yo'. would have to do wouild be to.show ther night watchman-the one with ther shotgun -a reclipted bill foh yo' .board an'. lodgin' an' get him to tie up the bull dog."-Cleveland Leader. A Mission That Failed. The Sire de Joinville tells us in bis "Histoire de St. Louis" how a certain Brother Yves of the preaching friars once met while crossing a street in Damascus at the time of the sixth crn sade an aged woman who carried in her right band a bowl of fire and in her left a bottle of water. "Wheie are you going?' asked the Brother Yves. "I go," said she, "to' burn up heaven with the fire and put-out hell with the water,,and so I will make an-end of both." "And for why will you-do this?" ask ed the friar.' "Because," said she, "I would-that we did good neither for: the joys of. heaven nor for the -fear of .bell pain, but purely for, the love- of. God, who deserves so well of us and whoAs-,able to deliver us from evil." - I will mail you free, to prove merit, samples af my Dr. Shoop's Restorative and my Book on either Dyspepsia,, The Heart or The Kidneys.
