The doctor was called In, and his treatment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do mo any good. I had gotten so weak I could not stand, and 1 gave up In despair. At last, my husband got me a bottle of Cardul, the woman's tonic, and I commenced tuklng It.

PUT BAN ON "HOW DO YOU DO' French Society Regards the Salutation as Meaningless and Lame?New One to Be Used. Paris.?A movement Is on in so- , clety to banish from conversation and ban the generally meaningless phrase, 1 "How do you do?" and put iu Its place some less insipid formula. People are pointing out that of one hundred persons inquiring thus after one's health no three are really interested in the subject, and no answer is either given cr expected on either ; side. If one be well the inquiry Is an ldlo one, while if one be ill It leads to an interminable discussion of symptoms, remedies, doctors, etc., which i should And no place iu ordinary small 1 talk. The general opinion Is that the offending phrase must be relegated to thoso who have net enough intelligence to begin talk in any other way, and a search Is being made for some other eel of words with which to open 1 a dialogue. It Is probable that the j laconic Roman "Salve" will bo adopted in the French form, Je vous (to) falue. Drop Ancient Berlin Custom.

I ties Bullheads of li.~S. < New York.?A South American fish 1 that can climb out of a deep pot-hole J and even creep against a strong cur- ' rent, on the bottom of a swift stream. I was described recently to the New | York Academy of Sciences by Mr. R. 1 D. O. Johnson, a mining engineer who I has spent several years in the high- ! 1 lands of Colombia?a region-visited by ; 1 few naturalists. The case is evidently j 1 one of adaptation to environment.

Mr. Johnson goes on to say, re- j 1 sembles closely the horned pout or | "bullheads" of the United States, and ' are highly esteemed as food by the . Colombians, who call them capitan. ! j Says the writer (we quote from a reprint of his paper in pamphlet form): j "Under usual conditions they are . ' clumsy and awkward swimmers, wrig- | 1 gling through the water like tadpoles, j I but as creepers and climbers they are j without rival in the fish family.

It Is this ability , to make a quick anchorage that enables the flsh to stay at home when nuture seems bent upon sweeping the i canyons and watercourses clear of everything movable. . . . "The flat sucker mouth Is half of the mechanism: the other half is located on the belly. Under the skin of the ventral side. Just behind a line Joining the pectoral fins, there Is a triangular bony plate to which are attached the ventrul fins. Tho main anterior ribs of these fins are broad and flattened, and the flat surfaces are thickly studded with small, sharp ( teeth pointing backwards. The triangular plate and its attached fins arc , free to move in a longitudinal direc- i tion through a distance equal to about | one-sixth of the length of the fish. This j movement is accomplished by means < of four muscles in two pairs attached ] j to the plate; the anterior pair extending from their attachments on each side of the plate forward to the middle point on the bony arch Just below I the gill openings; the posterior pair ' extending from an attachment at the 1 center of the posterior edge of the | 1 plate to the annl fin. It Is evident that tho fish is able to create a suction ! 1 pressure in the recinn nf thf? nl?tr? : 1 though how this is accomplished la i not apparent from the structure. "By means af the alternate action of the mouth and of this curious apparatus, the fish is able to creep against ' a current that would baffle its efforts entirely, if it relied alone upon its fins and tail. When it is engaged in creep- j ing or sticking fast to some object, the Hucker mouth necessarily is closed. It , is evident that the gills must be sup- i plied with the life-maintaining flow of water through some other avenue. At | the upper extremity of each gill slit ; there is an orifice provided with a vnlve opening inward. During the dias- j tole of the gill covers, the water flows I Inward through the orifices and is ex- i polled through the gill-slits during the systole. "On clear sunshiny days these fish may be Been in the depths of the clear water hitching themselves along over ; the surfaces of rocks, occasionally swimming short distances in the more quiescent places, but seeming to depend for locomotion primarily upon their creeping mechanism. They are to be found in all parts of these moun- j tain streams, from the most slender tributaries to the foot of the moun- I tains. It is evident from this fact that I (hey are able to travel up-stream." WAR HORSE IS CABBY'S PLUG Pormer French Cavalryman Recognlzcs the Charger; Gives It and Owner a Home.
