I consulted two different physicians out failed to get any relief. A friem 1 from the east advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I did so, and no longer suffer as Idid before.

The saying, “Tell it to the marines,” is traced to Pepys, tho author of the famous “Diary,” and it is said by him lo have originated with Charles II. of England. “It so befell,” as the story goes, "that bis light hearted majesty, with an exceedingly bored expression on his swarthy face, was strolling in the shade with the ingenious Mr. Pepys, secretary to the admiralty. “I had speech yester’en at Deptford,’ said Mr. Pepys, ‘with the captain of the Defryanee, who hath lately returned from the Indies and who told me the two most wonderful things that ever, I think, I did hear in my life.’ Among the stories told were of fish flying in the air. Fish flying in the air!’ ex claimed his majesty. ‘Ha, ha! A quaint conceit, which 'twere too good to spoil wi' keeping. What ho, sir’—he turned and beckoned the colonel, Sir William Killigrew of the newly raised mari time regiment of foot, who was fol lowing in close conversation with the Duke of York—‘we would discourse with you on a matter touching your own element. What say you, colonel, to a man who swears he hath seen fishes to fly in the air?’ “ ‘I should say, sire,” returned the sea soldier simply, ‘that the man hath sailed in southern seas, for when your majesty’s business carried me thither of late 1 did frequently observe more flying liisb in one hour than the hairs of my head in number.’ “Old Rowley glanced narrowly at the colonel’s frank, weather beaten face. Then, with a laugh, be turned to the secretary. ‘‘‘Mr. Pepys,' said he, ‘from the very nature of their calling no class of our subjects can have so wide a knowledge of seas and lands as the officers aim men of our loyal maritime regiment. Henceforth 'ere ever we cast doubts upon a tale that lacked) likelihood we will first tell it to the marines.’ Army and Navy Journal. LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION. State of South Carolina.

A rough and ready method of cal culating the weight of a piece of ice is afforded by die fact that a cubic foot of this substance weighs approxi mately 57.25 pounds. First measure the breadth, length and height of the cake, and the three results, being mul tiplied, will give the number of cubic Inches. If this answer be in turn multiplied by .033 the approximate number of pounds will result. For Instance, a cake 8 by 9 by 10 inches contains 720 cubic inches. This multi plied by .033 gives 23 : )4 pounds, the correct weight of such a piece of ice. Wrong Either Way. Mr. Jawback—I’ve got a new stenog rapher. Mrs. Jawback—Brute!

FLUE CURING IMRR0VEST0BACC0 LIKE ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE Flue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste Found in Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger There are three ways used by far mers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely, sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The old and cheap way is called air cured; the later discovery and improved way is called flue cured. In flue-curing the tobacco is taken from the field and suspended over intensely hot flues in houses especially built to re tain the heat, and there kept in the proper temperature until this curing process developes in the tobacco the stimulating taste and fragrant aroma found in Schnapps tobacco, just as green coffee is made fragrant and stimulating by the roasting process. Only choice selections of this ripe, juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the famous Piedmont country, where the best tobacco grows, are used in Schnapps and other Reynolds’ brands of high grade, flue cured tobaccos. Hundreds of imitation brands are on sale that /oo/t like Schnapps; the outside of the imitation plugs of to bacco is flue cured, but the inside is filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened air cured tobacco; one chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger longer than two chews of such tobacco. Expert tests prove that this flue cured tobacco, grown in the famous Piedmont region, requires and takes less sv/eetening than any other kind, and has a wholesome, stimulating, satisfying effect on chewers. If the kind of tobacco you are chewing don’t satisfy, more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco. Schnapps is like the tobacco chew ers formerly bought costing from 75c. to $1.00 per pound; Schnapps is sold at 50c. per pound in 5c. cuts, strictly 10 and 15 cent plugs. R. J.
