to weaken the Intestines, and Is prejudicial to

Too Smart for the Doctor.
The daughter of a well known jockey
was very ill, having caught a severe
cold. A doctor was sent for and was
buttonholed by the mother, who re
quested him to favor her by advising
her daughter not to wear low ankled
shoes.
The daughter was sent for, and, af
ter her tongue had been given the
usual out of door exercise, the man of
medicine said;
“Ah, you are suffering from what we
medical men call a low shoe cold, and
1 must prohibit you from wearing such
shoes in the future.”
The young lady started, and, taking
off one of the offending shoes, ex
claimed:
“Since you are so clever, doctor, as
to look at my tongue and tell me what
is amiss with my feet, will you be kind
enough to look at my feet and tell me
whether my fringe is properly ad
justed?”

Vines Indoors.
A few vines among other plants and
to train about the sides of the windows
may be used to good advantage. The
common English ivy and the moon
flower are excellent for the purpose.
They can be supported up the sides of
the windows and festooned across the
top, to form a green covered bower, and
when in this shape their value is ap
parent. It is as well to start with strong
ivy plants, as they are somewhat Blow
to grow at times. Two plants of part
ly creeping habits are Panicum variega
tum, a plant of angular growth, but of
exceedingly pretty variegated foliage,
and the wandering jew. The latter
sends out runners as strawberries do,
which hang over the pot, rooting when
they touch soil, explains a Country
Gentleman correspondent.
Deafness Can Not Be Cured
by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused bv an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it Is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
mal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that can not be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Bend for circulars, free.

Slept In the Bathtub.
A good story is told of a lazy and
loquacious farmer whose farm lies
along the John Day river. He called
at a neighbor’s house recently. “Sit
down; sit down,” said the neighbor.
“I don't know as I ought,” replied the
farmer, but nevertheless he sat down.
After some talk about the crops and
the value of an adjoining piece of
ground the farmer said, slowly: “I
don’t know as I ought to be sitting
here. I came over to see if I could get
a ladder; our house is afire.”

WA8 TAKEN FOR A BURQLAR.
The Fli or • Man Who Died an Old
Lateh< key to Look Dp a Friend.
Tlie bestowal of a latch-key is a
sacred trust not always appreciated by
tenants. It is tho commonest thing1
In the world for a boardor to walk off
with his door key, thus retaining to
himself the power to enter a former
dwelling at any hour of tho day or
night he pleases. Of course very fow
tenants hold onto thoir keys with any
such possibility in view, but for the
safety of herself and the future tenants
the landlady should be more particu
lar than sho averages at present in
redeeming the means of entry to her
household.
A couple of nights ago, says the Now
York Herald, a young man arrived
from the West about 11 p. m. and
promptly betook himself to look up an
old friend, whose room his own had
adjoined in a house on Forty-eighth
street. The house was closed up for
the night, so the young man took out
his erstwhile latchkey, and letting
himself in, mounted to his churn's
room. He was out, the gas was low
ered, and without waiting to turn it up
the traveler stretched himself out on
the sofa to wait, and in doing so fell
asleep. When he awoke it was to find
himself face to face with the basilisk
stare of a strange man, and with a re
volver. The room had changed ten
ants, that was pretty plain, but it
wasn’t equally plain how he was to
make clear that he was neither a
burglar nor an assassin.
“If you’ll lay down that thing,” he
said, after a hurried explanation to
the man with the revolver, “I’ll call
up the landlady and prove my case.”
With man and revolver in pursuit
he did find the landlady’s door, only
to be confronted by a strange woman,
who immediately went into hysterics.
Then every other woman in the house
raised her voice in hysterics, and
more men with revolvers gathered in
the passageways, until things began
to look pretty blue for the young man.
At last the final man, armed to the
teeth, joined the boarders, and as he
did so the poor excited traveler gave
a cry of relief.
“Put down your firearms,” called
the last comer, “and stop your
shrieks. You were looking for Dick,
weren’t you? He’s gone to Europe.
The whole house here has changed
hands. I’m the only one of tho old
crowd left. Good Lord, it’s well I’m
here! You’d have spent one night in
jail, at least, if I’d not been.”
“There,” shouted the besieged man,
flinging the key at the scantily robed
landlady, “there’s the key of this
blank, blank, blankety blanked
shanty, and may I never again see the
key of this or any other boarding
place shanty as long as I live.”
Court- Hartlallng an Elephant.
It is the business of a court-martial
to try soldiers and sailors accused of
offence, but sometimes strange prison
ers come before it. At the battle of
Sabraon, Feb. 10, 1846, the 9th Lan
cers' were required to escort some
twenty-four pounders, which were t*
be dragged by elephants into position.
One of them turning obstinate and re
fusing to draw, the men in charge of
the animals had it brought before
them, under the guard of two other
elephants, to be tried. The court
sentenced it to twenty-five lashes,
which were duly inflicted by a fellow
elephant. Taking a big double chain
on its trunk, at the word of command
it gave the rebel elephant five-and
twenty tremendous whacks. The cul
prit was thoroughly cowed, and no
longer declined to draw the gun.
He Knew l. la Own Home.
A Detroit young man with a fancy
for horseflesh and a knowledge of the
same not commensurate therewith,
some time ago went horse hunting on
his own responsibility, and picked up
what he thought was a crackerjack.
He was a Blue Grass hoss and was as
lively as a cricket; so lively, in fact,
that the young man was sure he had a
8-year-old. Several days after the
purchase, and he had been showing
the horse around and crowing over
him, he met the colored man who had
had charge of him.
“By the way, Sam,” he said,
“what’s the horse’s name?”
“Lexin’ton, sah.”
“Does he know it?”
“I spec he do, sah,” said Sam inno
cently; “he’s had it fer eighteen
veahs, sah.”
A Perfect Judgment.
‘•My father,” said the small boy to
the woman who was calling1 on his
mother, “is a great man. He knows
what time it is without even looking
at his watch.” “What do you mean,
Tommy?” queried the visitor. “Oh,
when I holler out and ask him what
time it is in the morning, he says it’s
time to get up. An’ when I ask him
what time it is in the evenin’, he alius
says, ‘time to go to bed, Tommy.’ Oh,
I tell you my father is a great man!”

said the other, "it's neuralgia and she’s

MEDICAL
DISCOVERY
Many years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel
and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., com
pounded this medicine of vegetable ingredi
ents which had an especial effect upon the
stomach and liver, rousing the organs to
healthful activity as well as purifying and
enriching the blood. By-such means the
stomach and the nerves are supplied with
pure blood; they will not do duty without it
any more than a locomotive can run with

Dyspepsia, or Indigestion, by taking arti
ficially digested foods or pepsin—the stom

called celery mixtures, it is belter to go to
the seat of the difficulty and feed the nerve

Increasing Use of Fruit. I
New York Press: Yesterday I met a
gentleman who is engaged in the busi
ness of raising fruit in Honduras. His
steamers deliver freight at Mobile, and
from this point his dates, bananas, co
coanuts and oranges are distributed all
over the country. He told me that the
prices on fruit are now better than
ever, and that the volume of trade is
expanding enormously every year. He
thinks much of this is due to a radical
change in the national taBte. As a peo
ple we eat less pastry and more fruit
than ever before, and to our great ben
efit, In spite of the tariff on oranges,
these are the most popular. A develop
ment of their medical properties in the
minds of the public has perceptibly af
fected their price. Orange eaters are
long lived. Oranges are excellent for
all internal organs and the best known
remedy against an appetite for strong
drink. Many men have been cured of
the habit of drinking stimulants in the
morning by eating plentifully of or
anges before breakfast. All of which
conduces to the profit of the fruit grow

of moisture is always at the expense of
loss of warmth, and the failure to stop
