When Mr. Spurgeon first began his
ministry an anonymous critic used : o
write to him constantly about his
mistakes. In grammar and pronunc
iation. Mr. Spurgeon at first resented
these criticisms , but he soon learned
to profit by them. "After awhile , " he
said In telling the story , "I looked for
his weekly memoranda with much In
terest. If I repeated a sentence which
I had used two or three Sundays before -
fore he would write : 'See the same
sentence in such and such a sermon. ' "
Mr. Spurgeon , like-everybody else , had
his pet quotation , and he used this
line , "Nothing In my hand to bring , "
rather frequently. So his commentator
tater wrote him : "We are sufficient
ly Informed of the vacuity of your
hand. "

People who have been led to regard
Colonel Roosevelt as a millionaire
will have to revise their ideas. His
father's estate of $1,000,000 was di
vided equally among four children ,
and some portion of the colonel's
share of $250,000 was spent in the
west. He has also spent a consider
able amount in the organization of
his regiment , so that he is probably
not as well off now as he was In 1878 ,
when his father died.
The man who always counts on his
friends seldom figures in their calcu

Amoricau disease audit is frequently stated
that "wo a nation of dyspeptics. "
Improper food , hurried eating , mental
worry , exhaustion ; cny of these produce a
lack of vitality in the eyttem , by causing
the blood to IOFO its lifo-sustaing elements.1
The blood is the vital element in our lives
and should bo carefully nurtured. Restore
the blood to its proper condition , dyspepsia
will vanish and good health follow.
For example , in the county of Pombina ,

"I became seriously ill three years ago.
The doctor gave me medicine for indiges-

had several physicians at intervals who
gave me some relief , but the disease would
return with all its accustomed severity.
' 'I read in the newspapers articles rsc '
girding the wonderful eurativo powers of
r. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People ,
and finally concluded to try the pills. I
purchased six boxes. This was five months
ago. The first box gave me much relief.
I continued taking the pills , and after
using four bozos was cured. "
These pills are recognized everywhere as a

TREASURES OF THE DEEP.
Attempt to He-cover Pirates' Sunken
Spoil.
An interesting effort is being made-
In Dunworley bay , on the Irish coast
near Cork , to recover a considerable
amount of treasure which there Is good
reason to believe lies beneath its
waves. Tradition has a long told fab
ulous tales of armada galleocn lost
there but the more prosaic and re
liable pages of the history of Bandon
tell of a sunken pirate schooner and a
vessel of name and type unknown
which foundered there during the
reign of William and Mary. The ex
istence of these two wrecks was per
fectly well known in the 40's when
they were examined by one of , the first
professional divers who worked on the
Irish coast , Patrick Collins , and the
father of the diver who is con
ducting tb.3 present endeavors. The
elder Collins worked in what
is now called "open dress , " and
experts in the progress of an ,
exceedingly useful but little under
stood craft know that that was the in
vention , in 1819 , of Siebe , and consist
ed merely of a helmet riveted to the *
upper part of a protective and water
tight garb which did not extend below
the .waist. With this primitive gear
he was able to recover some drinking
vessels , ivory tusks , head of Egyptian
origin and coins of William and Mary ,
In addition to several guns. The diver
was told that according to local legend
the pirates had gunk their treasure
chest , lashed between two guns , rather
than allow it to be seized but no signs
of It were to be seen. More than a
month ago J. Mulcahy and T. R. Hol
land entered into negotiations with a
local salvage contractor to make fur
ther researches , engaging Collins ,
througli t whose instrumentality chiefly-
the * sunken lightship Puffin was raised
last 1 year. The result , so far , has been
that a dozen guns In remarkable pre
servation , and apparently about 200
years ] old , have been brought to the
surface , together with gold coin of
William III. , some more beads and
ivory. i The examination is , however ,
going on , and , if necessary , the hulls
will be blown up with tonite or dyna
mite cartridges. These guns cannot ,
however 1 , claim to be the oldest objects
,
ever recovered from the deep. W. A.
Gorman has amassed an interesting
collection of relics of famous wrecks ,
and has In this the wheel of a pulley
block \ from Henry VIII.'s ship the
Mary Rose brought up after 295 years'
immersion. Some carpenters' tools
from an armada hulk in Vigo bay
there are also , as well as several very
ancient coins and vessels , but perhaps
no item in the group has a greater in
terest than an officer's sword , recov
ered in 1890 from what remained after
its explosion in action of I/Orient , the
French flagship , and which had there
fore been under water for ninety-two
years.
CUT UP THE WRONG HAT.
How a Scotch University Professor TVas
Fooled by a Student.
( From the Pittsburg News. )
A Scotch university professor , irri
tated to find that his students had got
into the habit of placing their hats and
canes on his desk , instead of in the
cloakroom , announced that the next
article of the kind placed there would
be destroyed. Some days later the pro
fessor was called for a moment from
the class room. A student slipped into
his private room and emerged with
the professor's hat , which he placed
conspicuously on the desk , while his
fellows grinned and trembled. The pro
fessor , on returning , saw the hat ,
thought some rashly obstinate student
had been delivered into his hands , and ,
taking out his knife , he cut the offend
ing article to pieces , while vainly at
tempting to conceal the smile of tri
umph that played about his counte
nance. He was in a very bad temper
the next day.
