One day, Uord Russell, while chat ting with Bismarck, asked him how he got' rid of those importunate visitors, whom it is impossible not to receive, and who, when they have been re ceived, never think it is time to take themselves off. The chancellor replied smilingly: “Oh, I have an easy and sure means. My wife at once understands when a person belongs to that terrible class, and when she is sure that such a per son has me in his clutches, and sees that he is staying too long, she finds some way of coming to cal! me and of getting me away on some plausible pre text.” Bismarck had nearly finished giving this explanation to Uo.rd Russell when his wife appeared in the doorway of the adjoining room.

The Absent Minded Professor. From Woman’s Home Journal. Among seven distinguished men who were to speak at the opening exercises of a new school was a professor well known for his lapses of memory. But his speech was clear that night, and as I lie seated himself his loving wife felt ' that he had fully earned tin* burst of j i applause that followed, and she clapped j her little hands enthusiastically. Then her cheeks crimsoned. "Did you see anything amusing about the close of my address, my dear?" asked the profesor as they ; started for home. ’It seemed as if I heard sounds suggestive of merriment about me." "Well, dear," said she, "of all the peo ple who applauded your address, you clapped the loudest and longest." Just in Time. Senator Hopkins was discussing at the Oyster Bay station a political error. "Those people admitted'their error," the senator said, "but they admitted it in such an odd. funny way.

A Quarter for Pester. From Youth’s Companion. Mr. Huekins was trying to make over a screen door for the Widow Jennings. The day was hot and muggy and she hung over him all day with questions, suggestions and c omplaints. "Aren’t you getting that too nar row?” asked the widow hovering over the carpenter in a way suggestive ol} some large, persistent insect. “No, ma’am," said Mr. Huekins. "Yoq know a few minutes ago you thought Twas too wide, and I measured it tej show ye.” "Oh. yes,” said Mrs. Jennings. "Well, anyway, I believe it’ll sag if you don’t change the hinges. Just hold it up ami see.” Mr. Huekins held tlie door in place, and proved that the hinges were in th« right spots, and after that Mrs. Jen nings kept silence for a few moments. “Oh, dear,” she said, grasping Mi, Huekins’ hand after the short respite,) “I’m sure you planed it off so that thJ! tiles can get in at tin* lop. Please hoi I it up again, and I’ll just get on a chaij and see if a Uy could squeeze through You may have to add a piece.” When it had been proven that no, evc'ii the smallest and most enterprising fly could lind entrance space, there was! another short respite.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer. A fat Irish woman, bearing a num- 1 oer of bundles, entered a crowded tram 1 t ar. The only semblance of a seat she j could llnd was a small space at the ; right of a disagreeable youth. Into this > space, sufficient only for an individual | of ordinary size, the fleshy Irishwoman ; squeezed herself, much to the annoy- t ance of the youth. After a moment or so the Irishwoman produced a cheese sandwich, which she proceeded to de vour with every evidence of relish. At this the youth gave her a look of In affable disgust, and drew the skirts of j his frock coat closer to him. ‘‘I sup- j pose, me lad.” good naturedly said the | woman, "that ye’d prayfer-r to have a l glntlemon siftin' nixt to ye?” "I cer- ] tainly would!” snapped the youngster. "So would I," calmly responded the fat I person. Nothing Else—But. An artist of some repute had an old soldier named BUI for his model and general servant. One day a lady called.

This pic ture is extremely like you!” "It is me. madam." answered BUI de cisively. "I sits for all his men. That’s what he is specially good at." "You must be a very useful person to {your muster," she observed. “And do .you think he is especially good at old I men ?” "Yes,” replied Bill. “But why not? ’Cos he’s got nothing to do!

Others refer to Peruna as a great catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right) Is it more proper to call Peruna a car tarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh rem edy that is not also a tonic. In order to thoroughly relieve any case of o&tarrh, a remedy must not only have a specific action on the mu oous membranes affected by the ca tarrh, but it must have a general tonio action on the nervous system. Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, is a weakened con dition of some muoous membrane. There most be something to strength en the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces. Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world has attracted so much attention from modioal writers as HYDRAS TIS CANADENSIS. The wonderful effi cacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession. When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Po runa which constitutes a specific rem edy for catarrh that in the present, state of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action, rein forced by such renowned tonico cm COLLINSONIA CANADENSIS, COR YDALIS FORMOSA and CEDEON SEED, ought to make this compound au ideal remedy for catarrh in all its stages and locations in the body. From a theoretical standpoint, there fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The use of Peruna, confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quarter of the earth furnish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusiastio. When practical ex perience confirms a well-grounded the ory the result is a truth that cannot be Bhaken. mjig HQBBH To convince any g m fini« SI H woman that !'«*- H 98«iy ffltM! &Wf?3 9hs t‘nc Antiseptic v ill U Mu*1 Nl 'tw Br^ rj Improve her lienl;b m SL.^. and do all wo ch. ru 9 ■ ^UHHf*22a for it- \\e will send her absolutely free a largo tiial box of Pax tine with book of Instruc tions and genuine testimonials.
