This is a pure, tonic medicine; of especial benefit in malaria, for it exerts a true curative influence on the disease, driving it entirely out of the system. It is much to be preferred to Quinine, having none of this drug's bad after-effects. E. S. Monday,of Henrietta,Tex.,writes: ".My brother was very low with malarial fever and jaundice, till he took Electric Bitters, which saved his life. At I >r. F. C. Duke's drin?

A Srotcli Collie Story*, A Htory of a Scotch collie Is current ou the Derbyshire border, according to the Dundee Advertiser. A farmer in the Peak district, having purchased a small flock of sheep in the lowlands, drove the flock the whole way front Scotland to Ills farm In Derbyshire with the aid of a collie dog which was lent to hint by the Scotch farmer from whom he purchased the sheep. "When you get to your home with the sheep," said the Scotchman, "lot the dog till his belly; then tell htm to go home." The Derbyshire man duly arrived at his farm with the sheep and was so I pleased with the colllo dog and its peri forinance that he decided to keep It a I few days before sending It hack. One day lie was awav front hotuc rturlnc | the whole of the day, and on returning i In the evening ho found that the Scotch i collie was missing and also the Hock of I sheep. In a few days tidings came | that the dog had arrived at his Scotch | home and had brought the sheep back < with him. Rrrnlitna It Gently. He Is a rather serious minded boy who has more sense of responsibility than many grown persons. So when I ho was sent to his grandmother's to , break the news of her aged sister's death be did so with much gravity and no little self Importance. "Now, Alfred," his mother said, "you mustn't tell grandma suddenly, | because it might shock licr, even | though she knew Aunt Martha was 111. ' Tell It to her gently." i "All right," assented Alfred, starting 1 </ht on his mission with mingled solemI nity and eagerness. | Arrived at his grandmother's house, | he greeted her with a sober "Hello!" i and then proceeded to "break the i news" by saying: "Aunt Maria's dead, grandma, but ! you mustn't feel bad, 'eause she was i pretty old, anyhow. You'll bo the next one, I n'pose."?Brooklyn Life. Not Mere Cariosity. The world has a store of pleasures In n'olllnn It,.. ? -? ' | nmiuiis iui: IlllllCrllSIUUICU UB Volor. Sometimes, indeed, they may be mostly In anticipation. as was tlie case wltli Anion Klggs of I'lumtown. I "How d'ye do?" said Mr. Rlggs corI dlnlly to tlio stem vlsagod man who , I was his r.ent ninto In the oar on the ocI onslon of Mr. Rlggs' flrst trip to IJosI ton. "Now what might your name be? I>o you live in Nashuy or beyond?" "I should like to know what business it Is of yours whore I live or who I nin?" said his companion crossly. "Well, now. It ain't any partlc'lnr business o* mine, strictly speaking," said Mr. Rlggs mildly, "but It's Jest like this: I've got a eonsln up In Canndy that I've never seeu, and I've always thought I might come upon him some time Jest by asking folks their name and so om" * mJmJL ^ (HI %fAyjf ???i ni-fc n~? The Reason, "She seems to be losing her hold on her husband." "I noticed ids hair was coining out." Doesn't Practice It, We're often told thnt yellow gold Is not worth striving for. And often by sotne ancient guy Who's reaching after more. Fits Either, "My son-in-law lias a splendid delivery." "Preacher or pitcher?" PERT PARAGRAPHS. If he who laughs Inst laughs best, It must be the Englishman, for he never sees the point of the joke until after the others have quit. It Is queer liow the world came to be so In debt to such a lot of worthless Iieople. A Rood name doesn't last more than a minute after the sewing circle has turned the X ray on It. Most any man can convince himself that there Is no harm in a white Me li there is a dollar in it for him. A rolling stone gathers no moss, hut in these days who would he a mossback? It is mighty hard to unlearn bad habits If a man doesn't want to. It 1? mighty lueky for the married flirt that the fool killer Is a very busy r Individual. Tho paaltffcat war ninnun ?fAiwn? Is to let her have her own way. In fact, It Is the only way. An optimist is a man who thinks his mining stock Is going to pay some day. Considering the prorocatlon. It Is strange that more men do not morder their alarm clocks. _ . . ... , Generally Is. "He thinks the world owes him a living." "He will find the world amply able to owe it" i i SELF CONCEIT. j " The man who wins Is very sure .That he Is made of stuff That always con the prise secure. The other fellow's bluff lie says ho Knows that ho can call? Just hc&r hla bragging notes, r And that's the way he spoils it all; He shows he "feels his oats." The mother with her happy child la sure a goodly sight; She seems so gcntlo and so mild, The littlo one so bright; She cuddles close tho sunny head _ And on it fondly dotes B* And spoils him till It must l>o said She mnhos hint "feel his oats." The man who paints a picture takes A deal of patient pains; Hla very ardent labor ma!:es 1 lira-weary, hands pad brains; He modest ta nnd hun?jle till Tl:e world his talent notes. And then of fame he knows tho thrill; It makes him "feel hls oats." And nowhere In this blR Rrecn world Can there be found a place Where self conceit Is not unfurled If Riven heart of Rraee. A tiny bit of foolish praise Our self lmportanee bloats; Upon our vanity It plays And makes us "feel our oats." A Bad Mizup. "Wife was so mad last niglit wlion 1 got home that she couldn't boo straight." "What did you do?" "Well, as I couldn't walk straight _ nor say 'truly rural,' tho result was Indescribable." \ Moisture and Temperature. ] A cubic foot of air at the temperature of zero (Fahrenheit) can contain only .5 of a grain of water vapor; ut n 32 degrees It can hold 2.13 grains; at 0T? It can contain 0.8 grains, and at 1)8 y it can hold 18.90 grains of moisture In suspension. These figures go to show that summer air can hold at least nine times the quantity of dampness that air can when reduced to tho temperature of freezing. F An Flrror In En|(ll?h, Even the greatest authors now nnd then make a little slip In their English, p Thus Sir Walter Seott In hts "Legend of Montrose" has this sentence: "But ere Montrose could almost see what happened Allan MeAtilay had rushed past him."
