HORSES LOVE THE SMITHY
Endearing Terms Used Led Massa
chusetts Animals to Run Away
To Be Shod.
Scituate has a blacksmith who is so
polite to animals that they go to him
f their own accord. Julian Sneed is
this village smith
Scituate people accustomed to the
' Whoa there," and "Git your tail outer
the way" methcf of some other
•. liths, stood around and marveled
wnen Mr. Smeed assumed his duties
at the local smithy. Smeed may ba
heard almost any day after this fash
ion:
“Now, dear," in the softest of
tones, "now, sweetheart, let's have
your foot. Raise up now, please,
dearies."
Whatever the passerby might think
of this method, the horses undoubted
ly approve of it.
Two horses, Lady Jane and Lady
Mery, belonging to Henry T. Cole, the
owner of the local livery, recently es
caped from the stable. They walked
to the blacksmith shop, entered, hur
ried up to the hitching ropes by the
side of the work bench and held up
their feet to he manicured, desiring
to hear sweet nothings.
The story is true and goes to prove
that endearvig conversation can be
combined wb ■ chiropody to good ef
fect as well a blacksmith shop as
In any other place in the world.—Pos
ton Journal.
MADE HIM STOP AND THINK
Leading Citizen Wanted to Be Remem
bered as Something More Than
an “Old Grouch.”
i “I had a little lesson several weeks
! ago,” remarked the man with the gray
■ mustache, “and it called me In good
shape.”
“Go ahead,” said the stout man.
”1 was in the garage where I keep
my car and happened to overhear a
conversation among the boys. A cer
tain man had been injured while trav
eling abroad—very badly injured, it
was reported—and one of the boys
was telling the others about it. ‘The
story in the paper says he can’t get
well,’ the youngster went on. ‘Did
you know him. Pete?’ And the boy ad
dressed promptly replied, ‘Sure. I
know th’ old grouch.’ Say, that hit
me pretty hard. Here was a leading
citizen dying and all the boy could re
member about him was that he was a
grouch. Yes, sir, it made me sit up
and think hard And I got in my mind
that when I passed out I’d like to be
remembered for something different."
He paused.
“That’s worth considering,” said the
other man.
“Good text,” said the first man.
“Good sermon,” said the other.

New Women of Persia.
Persian women are essentially fern
! inine. They want our dress, our edu
cation, our freedom, our happiness.
Dress, it will be observed, comes
first in the catalogue of feminine
wants, but a change of dress or coif
fure seems essential to all revolution
ary movements.
In Teheran, in place of the face veil
of white cloth, the Persian new wom
| an now wears a small square of black
net or woven horse hair; her shoes
have high heels; a European skirt
tun taken the place of the short skirt
and narrow trousers; the head ker
chief is being abandoned. One lady
tried to introduce an outfit to take
the place of the “chuddur," leaving
the face heavily veiled; but it was
too revolutionary even for Teheran,
and, after being mistaken for the ex
Shah in disguise, the wearer revert
ed in disgust to more orthodox
clothes. In her home the new woman
offers cigarettes instead of the water
pipe.—Moslem World.

How the Eiffel Tower Moves.
That the Eiffel Tower moves daily
in a vertical and horizontal sense has
long been beyond doubt. Apart from
the scientific laws of expansion and
contraction, which inevitably affected
it, one could see it during a gale sway
im, fmm Ride. But its vertical
movements were a mere matter of
conjecture until M. Guillaume under
took to investigate them. He shows
that the great iron structure may vary
an Inch in height every day. The ele
vation or depression is not equally dis
tributed, as only one of its sides may
be affected by the rise or fall of the
temperature, and thus the tower may
be compared to a person shifting his
weight alternately from one foot to
the other.
Festival of Old Maids.
St Catherine’s Day, the festival of
old maids, was celebrated gaily in the
Rue de la Paix, Paris.
It is the custom in Parts dressmato
ing establishments for the workglrls
on November 25 to crown with whits
caps those comrades who, during the
year, have reached the age of 25. The
other girls put on caps of various
kinds, and carry sprigs of orange blos
som. During the afternoon, if the head
of the business is generous, they drink
the health of the old maids in cham
pagne.

“How did you find the roads up
around Jingleville Corners'” anked
Bilkins of Slathersberry, who hac
just returned from a motor trip.
“Oh, I wasn’t particularly stuck on
them,” said Slatherberry.
“Really?” said Bilkins. “Well, J
guess you’re the only man tha^ v.asn t
I was stuck on ’em for a whole day
last year.”—Harper’s Weekly.

“Take anything?”
“Yes; some pills, but no results; sup

“Ever try Prickly Ash Bitters?”

Constipation, if Neglected,
Causes Serious illness
Cons; ipatimi, u in lccted, leads
to aln. -t innumerable complica
tions <ctm>, the general health.
Many cases of
t y p h oi d fever,
appendicitis and
other severe dis
eases are trace
able to prolonged
clogging of the
bowels. Regard
t h e effects o f
constipation, C.
E. Ayers, 6 Sabin
St., Montpelier,
Vt., says:
■'I was afflicted
with constipation
and biliousness for
years, and at tlmea became so bad 1
would become unconscious. I have been
found In that condition many time*.
Physicians did not seem to be able to
do me any good. I would become
weak and for days at a time could do
no work. Not long ago I got a box
of Dr. Miles’ laxative Tablets, and
after using them found I had never
tried anything that acted In such n
mild and effective manner. I believe
I have at last found the remedy that
suits my case.”
Thousands of people are sufferers
from habitual constipation and
while possibly realizing something
of tlie dr ger of this condition, yet
neglect o long to employ proper
curati’W neasures until serious ill
ness oj n results. The advice of
all physicians is, ‘‘kcer your bowels
clean,” and it’s good advice.
Dr. Miles’ Laxative Tablets are
sold by all druggists, at 25 cents a
box containing 25 doses. If not
I found satisfactory, your money is
! returned.
