When Maldon Brown, entered his place of business at an early hour this morning he had not the faintest idea thai he would short ly emerge from the building a hero, but such is history. This is Ihe way il happened, and Brownie's niutulaled eyebrows are ilent witnesses of the cataslrophy which occurred at the lime: lie approached Ihe stove, as he usually does on first entering, to replenish the fire, and had no more than began this pleasant task when there was a little puff of smoke, and a flame shot out and licked off the beard and eye brows from Brownie's face and the explosion was over. All was consternation in Brownie's camp for a short time, and he. (lew to the door and flung it open lo get a breath of air and lake an in ventory of his injuries. No serious damage was done to the slock, but there was smoke in the room for a long time and Brownie will not need a tonsorial art ist this week. E. II.

A life without variety would not e worth living. Pleasure and happiness would not be ap preciated without occasional dis comfort and pain. This teaches us to be prepared for distress and lo know how to get rid of it quick ly and positively. If tho discom fort is physical, if it is caused by some irregularity in our diges tion, we should know that Triner'i American Elixir of Bitter Wine is the remedy to rely upon. It heals the irritated digestive or gans and strengthens them at th same lime. Being made of rich, red wine and scientifically select ed herbs, it makes tho blood rich, pure and healthy. This blood nourishes every particle of the body, which explains the speedy strengthening of tho whole sys tem by using Triner's Americaa Elixir of Bitter Wine.
