Foley's Kidney Remedy Acted Quickly. M. N. George, Irondale, Ala., was bothered with kidney trouble for many years. "I was persuaded to try Foley Kidney Remedy, and before taking it three days I could feel its beneficial effects. The pain left my back, my kid ney acticn cleared up. and I am so much better I do not hesitate to recommend Foley Kidney Remedy." W. E. Brown & C'. $ The Man's Mistake. Out of loyalty to his own sex the manager of the woman's suit depart ment discharged his young woman stenographer and hired a man. The first batch of letters dictated to the man were written to about a hundred old customers, whom he invited to ex aniine privately a lot of exclusive gar ments before they were placed on sale. The day after the letters were mailed the women fiocked into the store, but the fire that burned in their eyes was the fire of the avenger rather than of the bargain hunter. One word which each woman had underlined in her letter explained their wrath. The gar ments, so the manager had meant to say, had been designed for women of stock figure, such as they possessed, but the male stenographer had drawn on the alphabet and had written it "stocky." "No woman on earth would have been guilty of such a mistake." growled the manager. The next week the girl stenographer had her job back.-Philadelphia Led ger. Great Men Tall and .Short. A recent investigator has attempted to show that Lombroso and his follow ers were wrong in asserting that men of genius were of small stature. Of 230 individuals of eminence he found that figures were obtainable for 103; of these sixteen were of middle height. fifty-eight above and twenty-nine be low. Americans particularly combined greatness with inches. Jefferson and Jackson were more than six feet tall. Sumner was six feet four inches, and Washington. Lincoln and Beecher were more than six feet. Among famous foreigners Tolstoy was a large man. and so were Thackeray, Bismarck and Darwin. On the contrary, many of the world's greatest geniuses were undersized and even deformed. Napoleon. Poe. Pope, Alexander the Great. Nelson. Blake and Caesar were small men. After all is said. genius Is no re specter of rules.-New York American. Doing Chores. There is no time in the year when there is cessation from toil on a farm. It is different In winter; that is all. The days are shorter, the work rougher. Of course much depends upon the character of the farm. Con siderable leisure is possible where few cattle- are kept and general trucking done. But always there are the "chores." A remarkably elastic expres sios that-"dolng chores." It may mean much or little. Some dairy farm ers, for instance, whose serious busi ness in life is milking cows, may pot ter around the farm after the morn Ing's milking and, taking the morning's milk to the creamery or railroad sta 'tion, eat their noon dinners, mend some fence. look over the harness or hani out manure, potter around. some more and then say, "Guess it's about time to do' the chores," meing to milk two dozen cows or so-the real hard work of the day.-Philadelphia Press. Believed Them True Stories. When Dante published his "Inferno" the simplicity of the age accepted it as a true narrative of his descent into bell. When the "Utopia" of Sir Thomas Moore was first published it occasioned a pleasant mistake. This political ro mance represents a perfect but vision ary republic in an island supposed to .have been newly discovered in Amer ica. "As this was the age of digs covery," says Granger. "the learned Budaeus and others took it for a genu ine history and considered it as highly expedient that missionaries should be sent thither in order to convert so wise a nation to Christianity." It was a long while after publication that many readers were convinced that Gulliver's travels were fictitious. Blackbircd Days. Jan. 30 and 31 and Feb. 1 are famous at Constantinople. Brescia and along the Danube and the Rhine as the "blackbird days." A curious legend says that originally all specles of grack les (blackbirds; were white and that they became black because during one year in ther middle ages the three days mentioned above were so cold that all the birds in Europe took refuge in the chimneys. At Brescia the three days are celebrated with a feast called "I giorni della merla." or "the feast of the transformation of the-bird."

On being approached on the subject he said he was sorry, but it was impossi ble to attend any more. .He was pressed to give reasons and at length -said it was owing to the bad conduct oftesuperintending clergyman and ctcist. He and others had witnessed them ~drinking when driving round on their visits. They had passed a black bot .tle from hand to hand. It was impos .sible to attend the ministry of such :men. Inquiries proved that the of fending "bottle" was a pair of field glasses with which the drivers sur . veyed the surrounding country and tfried to 1kcate the various churches, shacks and trails.--Sunday at Home. Not Always. "Whenever I hear the suffrage comn :bated," said an .English lord, "on the score of woman's protected, sheltered, petted life I think of a poor woman I once questioned in England. "This poor creature had-been beater ~by her husband in a drunken fury. The man had been drunk, it appears, for ten days rnnning. "'My good friend,' I said to her, 'dboes your husband always drink like that?" "'No, my lord,' she answered. 'Some times I gets hout o' work.'" A Witty Retort. An Englishman in Dublin was asked by an Irish cab driver if he wished to ride through the city. "No," replied the Englishman; "I an able to walk." "Ah, well," remarked the jehu, "may yer honor long be able, but seldon: Japanesi Logic.
