"There is no use trying to deny It," said one man to another. "Blims Is badly married. I hate to say it, but it's so." "How do you know?" "By a talk I have just had with him." "Does he complain?" "No. That's the pathetic part of it. He was telling me how good natured and clever his wife is because this morning she showed him how to fasten his braces to his trousers with a hair pin."-London Titbits. Thomas A. Edison, the great Ameri can inventor, says "Fully eighty per cent of the illness of mankind comes from eating improper food or too much ood people are inclined to over-in dulge themselves." This is where in digestion finds its begining in nearly every case. The stomach can do just so much work and no more, and when you overload it, or when you eat the wrong kiud of food, the digestive or gans cannot possibly do the work de manded of them. It is at such times that the stomach needs help; it demands help, and warns you by headacbes. bel ching, sour stomach, nausea and indi gestion. You should attend to this at once by taking something that will act ually do the work for the stomach. Kodol will do this. It is a combination of natual digestants and vegetable acids and contains the same juices found in a healthy stomach. It is pleasant to take. Sold by W. E. Brown & Co. He Was Cruel.

Four to six little white eggs are laid in the domestic phoebe bird's beautiful and finished nest. Blue white eggs of the bobolink may actually be stumbled over as one walks along the high grass. The mocking bird, of romantic fame, lays from four to sir speckled green eggs In her loosely done nest. Two white eggs occupy the mourning dove's home, which stands for the poor est sort of bird housekeeping. One of the best architects in the world Is the oriole. Its graceful nest contains four to six whitish eggs marked with black and brown.

The life of a river log driver Is a life that seems to get hold of one after a year or two. You are generally wet through for twelve hours out of the twenty-four. Ten of you sleep in a 12 by 15 foot shanty; you live on fried everything, "black strap," Itreacle and stewed tea. You go to bed at 10 and get up at 3.

Brown & Co. Tobacco Smoke Poisonous. It is often said that tobacco smoke Is a powerfui germicide. The com position of tobacco smoke is complex, the principal constituents being oils of a tarry nature. Nicotine itself is a strong germicide, but the quantity of this poison In tobacco smoke is minute. The oily matter which accumulates in a tobacco pipe is highly poisonous, but does not contain any appreciable quan tity of nicotine, the chief constituent of this residue being a very poisonous oil known as pyridine. Tobacco smoke contains a decided quantity of car bon monoxide, which is a preservative and which must possess germicida properties. One of the principal con stituents accounting for the germicidal properties of tobacco smoke is the pow erful antiseptic formaldehyde.-New1 York Herald. His Logic. A keen business man bought at .1 low price a theater that had long beet unprofitable and by economical man agement put it immediately on a pay ing basis. But he was very economni cal. He watched the expenses witl the sharpest eye. The first month' expense account contained the item "Meat for cats, to protect the scencri and properties from the rats' ravages $2." The proprietor struck this iten out, writing on the margin: "If thi cats eat the rats, wherefore the meat' If they don't, wherefore the cats?"

Nicolo Machiavelli. from whose sur name hns been coined a synonym for treacherous craft. was a writer of nervous and concise Italian. He took high rank as a dramatist, his comedy of "Maudragola" being pronounced in ferior only to the work of Voltaire. Leo X. admired it so much that he had it played before him in Rome. His book on the "Art of War" won the praise of so competent a judge as Frederick the Great of Prussia. His policy in statesmanship embodied in his work "The Prince" was the direct antithesis of Washington's sentiment that "honesty Is the best policy." Misunderstood. "Your sentence is to be suspended," began the merciful judge. "Great Scott, jedge," exclaimed the prisoner, "et I'd knowed chicken steal ing was a hanging offense I wouldn't have stole."-Philadelphia Ledger. You never have any trouble to get children to take Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup. They like it because it tastes nearly like maple sugar. Ken nedy's Laxative Cough Syrup is a safe, sure and prompt remedy for cough and colds and is good for every member of the family. Sold by W. E. Brown & Co. Misplaced Philanthropy. A well known philanthropist spoke with good humored regret at a dinner in New York of a charity that had failed. "But it failed through Its own fault," said he. "It failed because it was mis taken. It suggests to me an experi ence of a friend of mine in Ireland. My friend at about this season last year was motoring through a remote region of Ireland, and one day he came upon a poor old woman seated, with all her humble furniture about her, in the middle of the road before her lit tle cabin. My friend was profoundly moved. Here before his very eyes an eviction, a real Irish eviction, was tak Ing place. He got out of his car and gave the old woman a five pound note. "'Tell me,' he said, 'what Is the trouble, my poor friend?' "Bobbing and courtesying her grati tude. the old woman replied: "'Shure, sir, me ould man's white washin'.'"-New York Tribune.

If Bill was defendtn' a lowly chicken thief he'd speak with the tongue of angels. I'll never forgit the peroration of his impassioned philippic in the Clay Bull case about the poison ed cat. It runs like this here." , The little. thin old man rose, reared back in a defiant attitude and shouted in ti- cracked treble of age: "'Restin' upon the couch of repub lican liberty as I do, covered with the blanket of constitutional panoply as I am and protected by the aegis of American equality as I feel myself to be, I despise the buzzin' of the profes sIonal inseck who has just sot down and defy his attempt to penetrate with puny sting -the interstices of me im pervious coverin'.'

A test will tell. Your health is worth this simple trial, Sold by W. E. Brown &Co. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. Your sons probably please you as well as you pleased your father; If you don't look carefully after your own affairs, who do you imagine will? A good many people try to administer forgiveness and punishment at the same time. About all some men get for their efforts to be dignified is a reputation of having the swelled head. The greatest triumph for a boy is the privilege of being accepted as an equal by boys somewhat older than himself. Don't begin to wonder how other people can afford so many things that you can't afford. That is a big step in the direction of growing envious and sour. We have noticed that people who do exactly as they please, whether their friends like it or not. get along about as well as those who are always trymy~ to please.-Atc~hison G lobe. Stomach troubles. Heart and Kidney ailments, ca4n be quickly corr'ected with a prescription known to d ruggist every where as Dr. Shoop's Restorative.

Village Worthy-Graun' an' healthy, I should think sae. E. G.-Then it's considered one of the healthiest quarters around here? V. W.-I should think sae. There's no muckle seekness there. E. G.-I should think not. Have you never been sick? V. W.-Neever! E. G.-How do you account for that? V. W.-Weel, ye see, it's like this: The doctor's kept me a' my life, an' he jist lets me alone.-Illuistrated Bits. When you see the name Rydale in an advertisement or on a remedy it is a sure sign that the remedy advertised is compounded from the prescription of a specialist. A specialist in a certain disease knows more about and is better fitted to treat that disease than unyone else, and that is the aeason why the Rydale remedy never fails to relieve and so often cure the troubles for which they are recommended. Rydale's Stom' ach Tablets, for Indigestion and Dys* pepsia: Rvdale's Liver Tablets for live: and bowels- Rydale's Tonic, for a sys' Iten builder and sure cure for Chill and Malaria; and Cough Elixir, for al Iordinary Coughs ann bronchial trouble are four prescriptions of the .besi specialisths and will do all that medicinE an .W.
