Dr. "William Osier, who has been appointed to the Regius professorship of medicine at the University of Oxford, has a good-humored way of telling stories that redect unfavorably on physicians. At a medical banquet Dr. Osier responded to a toast on "Providence." He began : "A merchant, after a long absence, re appeared at church one Sunday morning i pale and thin. 44 'Where have you been ?' said a trustee. "'I have been ill,' the merchant answered. 'I have been very ill. My doctor had a good deal of difficulty in pulling me through.' " 'Tut,' said the trustee. 'Tut, man. It wasn't your doctor that pulled you through ; it was Providence.' '"Maybe it was,' returned the merchant, but the doctor will charge for it.'" ONE OF"MANY. ? H. A. Tisdale, of Summerton, S. C., suffered for twenty years with piles. ^ Specialists were employed and many remedies used but relief and permanent good was found only in the use of DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve.

DeWitt & Co., in Chicago, and a cure is certain. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cures all kinds of piles, cuts, burns, bruises, eczema, tetter, ringworm, skin diseases, etc. Sold by H. F. Hoover.

The Wbj- the Piece of Paper "Worried Thomae A. Edison. Thomas A. Edison once told a friend the story of his first acquaintance with any big sum of money. It was when he was straggling with his earlier inventions, and he had about as clear an idea of the value of a bank check as the man in the moon. He had finally sold his patent on the gold and stock indicator to the W<jstei*n Union Telegraph company and had called at its office to close the deal. After a few preliminaries he was given a check for $40,000. He eyed it curiously and appeared to be purrled what to do with it Observing his perplexity, General Lefferts, then president of the Western Union, told him that if he would go to the Bank of America, in Wall street he could get the cash on his check. "!5o I started," said Edison, "after carefully folding up the check, and ! w&nt toward Wall street. So unoer tain was I in regard to that way of doing business that I thought while on the way that if any man should come up to me and offer me two crisp $1,000 bills for that piece of paper I . would give him the check very quick ij." On his arrival at the Bank of America he half tremblingly shoved his check out to the cashier. The latter scrutinized it closely, gave him a piercing glance and said something [ which Edison, being hard of hearing, j failed to understand. That was I enough. He was fully convinced that j his check was hot worth $40,000 and again thought as he rushed out of the j bank that any man #who would give i him $2,000 for it could have it. He j hurried back to the office of the West| era Union and said he could not get ; any money. A clerk was sent to the bank with him to identify him. "This man," said the clerk, "is Mr. I Thomas A. Edison, to whose order the : check is drawn." j "Why, certninly, Mr. Edison," said the cashier. "How would you like your money?in what shape?" j "Oh, any way to suit the bank; it i doesn't make any difference to me, so long as I get my money." Edison was given $40,000 in large bills. After dividing the roll into two wads of $20,000 each he stuffed one fntrt trnncors noekpt and made all x . speed out of Wall street. The next day he began work on his first New York laboratory.?Success. JAPANESE PROVERBS. There Is no miracle in true doctrine. Human life is like the dew of the morning. The fallen blossom never returns to the branch. There is no shore to the bitter sea of Birth and Death. Never let go the reins of the wild colt of the heart. One confession effaces the sins of even three years. Only by reason of having died does one enter into life. With one hair of a woman you can tether even a great elephant. Even the touching of sleeves in passing is caused by some relation in a former life.?Lafcadio Hearn's "In Ghostly Japan." Washington's Father. My father, Augustine, has been described as a good planter and a man of energy. I apprehend that he was of a serious tendency, for Lawrence, my brother, once gave me to understand that most of the few books at Wakefield were religious, but whether this was so or not I do not know. Like some of the rest of us, my father had a high and quick temper, which, as he used to say, he had to keep muzzled. I remember being terrified at seeing i him in a storm of anger because the clergyman who was to have baptized my sister Mildred was too much in liquor to perform the ceremony.?From S. Weir Mitchell's "The Youth of Washington" in Century. And She Believed Him. Mildred: "You belong to a men's club How in the world do you amuse yourselves?" Jack (gently stroking her hair:) "We don't try to amuse ourselves, dear. Men's clubs are for the purpose of study and mutual improvement." in\c? iVtif 1 ac GLUVI iTlUIV^ ve been picked over.
