CONSTIPATION.
Its Cause and How to Cure it.
Eat too much,
Stomach feels bloated,
All out of sorts,
Don’t feel like work to-day. Gues;
I’ve another case of biliousness.
“Take anything?”
“Yes; some pills, but no results; sup
pose I’m getting ironclad. Sometimes :
double the dose, then they physic me sc.
hard I’m too weak to work. Think I’ll
have to try something new.”
“Ever try Prickly Ash Bitters’”
“No; I’ve heard a good deal about it
but never tried it.”
“Well, you’ll be pleased with the re
suits.”
The purgative action of Prickly Ash
Bitters not only removes hard irnpac
tions, gas and impurities, but it strength
ens the muscular action of the bowel:
which causes them to move regularly.
Prickly Ash Bitters is a bowel tonic
and regulator in the truest sense. It
promotes daily evacuations, establishes
healthy movements and is the best
known remedy for disordered digestion,
flatulence and a constipated habit.
D. M. Blackwelder, of r.itchfield, 111 , says
the Litchfield News: ‘‘Iain perfectly willing, ir]
fact glad to testify to the value of Prickly Ash
Bitters as a medicine for the kidneys, stomach
and bowels. I have used it whenever I needed
anything of the kind for the last fifteen years
and it has always given satisfaction."

of life. The hurry, hard work,
noise and strain all tell on us and
tend to provoke nervousness and
irri'ahility. We are frequently so
worn out we can neither eat, sleep
nor work with any comfort. We
are out of line with ourselves and
others as well.
A good thing to do under such
circumstances is to take something
like
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pill*

Better Keep the Boy.
At nightfall the Junior partner's ex
citation of the day changed to obagrla
end he clamored noisily for the errand
boy's dismissal.
“Better think It over ” the senior
partner advised.
“Why waste time la thinking." the
Junior retorted, “when he’s got to go?
tlere I am, lying awake every night
for a week planning effective win
(low decoration, which Is turned into a
laughing stock the first day by the
stupidity of that boy, who leaves three
yards of blue wfjolen dust rag drapei

they?"
‘Tes, but what of It? That dust

SALLY’S LOSS, LONDON’S GAIN
Mow Maid Servant Lost Husband and
Wealth and City Became Pos
sessed of Fine Hospital.
That bequests to Individuals and to
public benevolences are frequently the
result of a mere whim or of caprice,
has ao better Illustration, perhaps,
than the case of Thomas Guy, who
built and endowed the great Guy’s
hospital of London, at a cost of £23!L
292 nearly two hundred years aga
Guy had a maid servant of strictly
frugal bahits, who made hts wishes
her careful study He resolved to
make her his wife The necessary
preparations wore made for the wed
ding: and among others many little
repairs were ordered by Mr. Guy In
and about his house. The latter in
cluded the laying of a new pavement
opposite the street, door. It so hap
pened that Sally, the bride-elect., ob
served a piece of pavement beyond
her master's house that required
mending, and of her own accord she
gave orders to the workmen to do this.
This was done In the absence of Mr.
Guy, who on seeing more work done
than he had ordaMd was Informed
that the addltlonaf work had been
done by the mistresa’s orders. There
upon Guy told Sally she had forgotten
her position, and addad: “If you take
upon yourself to order matters con
trary to my Instructions before we ars
married, what will you not do after?
I renounce my matrimonial Intentions
toward you ” So Sally lost a rich and
grouchy husband and Loudon gained 9
noble Institution for her poor.
Woman's 8tory.
A lady wrote to 26 friends and told
them she was glrlng a “white ele
phant" party, and that each guest waa
to come and bring the absoluteet moat
useless thlhg she possessed. And the
whole 26 women turned up with their
husbands!
Another lady waa giving what la
called a book tea—each guest to wear,
pinned on her dress, something to rep
resent the name of some book. The
name of each book had been guessed,
with one exception.
The lady who still puzzled everyone
wore a photograph of her huBband
her bodice. No one could guess the
name of the book she Intended the
picture to represent, and after they
had all given It up” she told them—
“Life’s Handicap.”
Grotesque Names for Children.
Certain philanthropic Londoners
have proposed a Guild of Godparents
to save innocent children from the
burden of grotesque names. Hundreds
of examples of this poor form of pa
rental wit occur In the birth registers
for the past few years. Noah’s Ark
Smith. Sardine Box. Jolly Death,
Judas Iscariot Brown, One-Too-Many
Johnson, Not-Wanted Smith, Borrll
Simpson. Merry Christmas Figgett,
Odious Heaton and Anno Domini
Davis are the names of children prob
ably 11t1d( who will have to bear them
through lire.
Portuguese Jury Drew Lota.
A sew method of administering Jus
tice was applied recently at Villa
Franca de Xlra In Portugal.
▲ prisoner was charged with coun
terfeiting, and as the Jury were even
ly divided and could not agree they
determined to draw lota. Two pieces
of paper were procured, one waa In
scribed "guilty" and the other “Inno
cent." They were then folded up.
shuffled, and one waa then choeen by
a Juryman.
It happened to be the one Inscribed
•‘guilty," whereupon the prisoner was
sentenced to the maximum penalty.
Legal Point of View.
First Lawyer—I was looking ovei
my boy’s geometry lesson last night.
I was quite interested In that propo
sition, that the three angles of a tri
angle are equal to two right angles.

First Lawyer—No. but I was trying
to think what a man could do if hfl

RIGHT CHILDHOOD IS MODEST
Well-Bred Youngster Doee Not Tlilnlt
That It Know* Everything*
Ceye Rusk In.
The flrat character of right child
hood la that (t la modest. A wale
brad ohlld does not think It can tanah
its parents, or that It knows every
thing. It may think Its father and
mother know everything—perhaps
I that all grown-up people know every
thing; very certainly It la sure that
it does not. And It Is always asking
questions, and wanting to know sum.
Well, that Is the first charseter of n
good and wise mu at his work. Ta
know that ho knows very little; ta
perealv* that there are many above
blm wiser than he, and to be always
asking question*, wanting to lean*
not to teach. No one ever teaohoo
well who wr.nts to teach, or govern
well who wants to govern;.Is an
old saying (Plato's, hat 1 know BO*
If bis, first), and as wise as old.
Then, the second character of right >
i :hlldhood la to be faithful. PercetiN
Ing that Its lather knows best what
I* good fo-. It, and having found ah
wave, when It ha* tried Its own way
Bgalnet bis, that ho was right and It
