Mrs. J. F. Daniels, of Sip, Ky., writes: "I was so sick for-3 or'4 years, I had to hire my work done, most of the time. I had given up hope. When I began to take- Cardui, I knew, right -away, it was helping me.. Now, I am better than ever before in my life, and Cardui did it" E:64 YkCAR The Woman's Tonic Cardui has helped thous ands of weak, tired, worn out women, back to health. It has a gentle, tonic ac tionri- the- womanly sys tem. It goes to the cause of the trouble. It helps, it helps quickly, surely, safe ly. It has helped others. Why not you? It will.

In the day:c when the buffalo was found in vast herds on the western .plains there were indians who, while riding at a gallop, could send an arrow through a buffalo's body. Remarkable .as this archery was, yet it did not equal that reached by the archers of a'ncient times. It is ol record that the MacRaes of Gairlock. Scotland, were such skillful archers that they could bit a man at the distance of 500 yards. In 1704 the Turkish ambassador at London shot an arrow, in a field near that capital, 415 yards against the wind and 4S2 yards with the wind. The secretary -of the ambassador, on hearing the expressions of 'surprise from the English gentlemen present. said the sultan had shot 500 yards. This was the greatest performance of modern days. but a pillar, standing on a plain near Constantinople, record ed shots ranging up to 800 yards. Sir Robert Ainslie. British ambassador to the sublime port, records that in 179S he was present when the sultan shot an arrow-972 yards.-New York Press. Mark Twain's German Coffee. German coffee must have given Mark Twain a pain, judging from the following recipe which he gave for its concoction: Take a barrel of water and bring it to a boil; rub a chicory berry against a coffee berry, then convey the former into the water. Continue the boiling and evaporation until the intensity of the flavor and aroma of the coffee and chicory have been diminished to a prpper degree; then set aside to cool. Now unharness the remains of a once cow from the plow, insert them in a hydraulic press, and, when you shall have acquired a teaspoonful ofr that pale blue juice which a German super stition regards as milk, modify the mnlignity of its strength in a bucket of tepid water and bring up the break 'fast. Mix the beverage in a cold - cup, partake with moderation, and keep a wet r'ag around your' head to guard against over excitement. *Clever Crows. In a garden a dog was eating a piece f meat in the presence of four covet ~ous crows. They evidently said a great deal to one another on the subject, and nlow and then one of them tried to pull ~the meat, away from the dog, which he naturally resented. At last a big. strong crow succeeded in tearing off a piece, with which he returned to the tree where the others congregated. A long powwow now ensued, which end ed in all four crows flying down to the dog, the leading crow dexterously drop ping the small piece of meat within reach of his mouth. The dog imnmedi ately snapped at it, unwisely letting go the big piece, which was seized by two crows and carried to the tree, where it was devop rdygith, nuch .fluttering and hilarity, while the cheated- dog ~walked away with every appearance of discomfiture.-St, Louis Globe Dem ocrat A Notorious English Spendthrift. Among the customers at Long's, the .famobs .hotel-id Bond street, was the -last Marquis- df Hastings, 'the most notorious of mid.Vietorian spendthrifts. Hastings, according to one who knew imn well, "gambled so tha't' not even the Bank -of England. backed by the Bothschilds, with the mines of the Transvaal as additional supports, could ave withstood the strain." Yet even he protested at Long's when ~hred 2s. 6d. for a whisky and soda. -e proprietor declared that this had ~las been the charge. "About time -was altered, then," retorted the mar - Just before his death Hastings - - -: s efnd: "Eve.,.made- a rettfssk'6f my life.

He quarreled indiscriminate ly with friend and foe, and for him the public -were a set of ignorLmuses who had no right to :ny opinion what ever. Especially well known is his quar rel with John Rusl:in. who in his "Ars Clavigera" had heaped scorn on one of Whistlers "Nocturnes" in the following language. "I have seen and heard much of cockney impudence be fore now, but never expected to hear a coxcomb ask 200-guineas for flinging a pot of paint in the public's face." The artist promptly sued for damages, [and in the celebrated trial which fol lowed he was awarded one farthing. which coin he triumphantly wvore as a watch charm ever afterward. In his ::rt work. as in his own per sonal appearance. Whistler was fastid bous. ils palettes vere beautifully wiped. his brushes faultlessly kept. aud as for his general beha;vior it was foreign. one may even say exotic. Why Thackeray Was Moved t:> Tears. A lady. an intimate friend and a frequent visitor at the Thackeray home, called inte one afternoon. She was shown lno the study. and on eU tering perceived the novelist himself seated at his delsk. his head bowed upon his ai'ms. Fearing she wais in trudiug in the presence of sOmne great and unknowni grief, she paused. hesi tating. Then. thinking she might be of some help or at least express her sympathy, She stepped forward. Just then Thackerdy !ooked up. 'is shoul ders were making. the: itars stream ing from hiN eyes. "Little Nell-is dead;" he said broken ly. "Little Nell' his visitor interrogat ed. "Yes. Lirtle Nell." was the answer. "She is dead. Tve just been reading it." Before him on his desk lay an open copy of "Old Curiosity Shop." Ld1iPs' iome Jotirnal.
