Too Much to Aak.
A traveler in the highlands observed
while at a tavern in a small village e
rer.v beautiful collie. At bis request
the owner was pointed out to him, and
tie asked the man what be would take
for the dog.
"Ye'll be taking bim to America?'
the Scot asked cautiously.
"Certainly, if you sell him to me."
"I no coul" part wle Itob," the dog's
owner then said emphatically. "I'm
'iiuckle fond-like o' him." And libera)
?ffers were no inducement.
To bis astonishment, the traveler
later saw the dog sold to a drover for
half what he had offered and after the
drover had disappeared requested an
explanation. "You said that you could
not sell him." he remarked.
A twinkle came Into the high lander's
eyes.
"No; I didnn say I'd no sell him. I
said I couldna part wle bim." he said.
"Kob'll be hame Iu two or three days
fru no o, but I couldna ask him to swim
across the oceau. Xa; that woul' be
too tnuckle to ask."? Harper's Weekly.
l'enn That Curry a Vole.
The parish church of Chertsey pos
sesses a curious anomaly. It has sev
eral pews in its gallery which are
bought and sold by auction. Just like a
table or a chair, and these pews give
their owners for the time being a legal
right to vote at parliamentary elections
iu the division. Moreover, the owners
of the pews have to pay the poor rate
of ?2 a year Into the bargain, a privi
lege they are uot so eager to use as the
former one. Many years ago the church
wardens of Chertsey were at their wits'
end iu order to raise money for the res
toration and repair of the sacred edi
fice, and they could fiud no solution to
the question until some parishioners
suggested that they should sell the gal- (
lery pews to the highest bidder. They
accepted the idea and obtained a spe
cial act of parliament allowing them to
do this and also giving the privilege of
a parliamentary vote.? London Specta

A Gallery of Forgeries.
Paris possesses a very tine gallery of
modern masters, largely of the Bar
bizun school, uot one of which Is genu
ine. It is lu the painter Harplgules
that France is indebted for this queei
colic i lion of the spurious. Passing
through the itue de Vaugirard one day,
bis eye caught some canvases iu a
window. Tliey were all signed by
prominent names, including his own.
and every signature was forged. Pass
ing inside, the list became more exten
sive. and the painter found himself in
the presence of false Corots, Diazes,
Datlblgnys. l.ancrets, Isabeys, Neu
vllles and even English Turners. The
revelation of his own identity enabled
Harplgnies to become possessed of this
collection for something less than the
proverbial old song, and It may now
be Inspected by those Interested In
such matters at the state furniture de

Cure of the Feet.
The feet should be bathed at night,
and this treatment Is an excellent
sleep producer. The water should be
salted. The feet should be scrubbed
erfl over with a nailbrush, which will
often prevent the formation of corns,
while hard spots on the soles may be
reduced with a piece of flue emery pa
per or fine file before the feet are
placed in water.

THANKS CUTICURA
FOR COMPLETE CURE
"Some time ago I wrote you for a
book on the Cuticura Remedies and
received it O. K. and went and bought
the Soap, Ointment, and Pills. They did
me more good than any medicine I ever
used. They cured me of my skin disease,
and I am very thankful to you. My
trouble was eruption of the skin, which
broke out in spots all over my body,
and caused a continual itching which
nearly drove me wild at times. I got
medicine of a doctor, but it did not cure
me, and when I saw in a paper your
ad., I sent to you for the Cuticura book
ana I studied my case in it. I then
went to the drug store and bought one
cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Cu
ticura Ointment, and one rial of Cuti
cura Pills. From the first application
I received relief. I used the first set
and two extra cakcs of Cuticura Soap,
and was completely cured. X had
suffered for two years, and I again
thank Cuticura for my cure. If you
wish, you may publish this. \ oui
