About one month ago my child , which
is fifteen months old , had an attack ol
diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting I
gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases , but as nothing gave
relief , we sent for a physician and it was
under his care for a week. At this time
the child had been sick for about ten
days and was having about t\venl > five
operations of the bowels every twelve
hours , and xve were convinced that 1111-
les it soon obtained relief it would not
live. Chamoerlnin's Colic , Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended ,
and I decided to try it. I soon noticed
a change for the better ; by its continued
use a complete cure was brought about
and it is now perfectly healthy C L.

McCOOK , NEBRASKA.
He Ate Ills Fill.
A local clergyman is telling n joke or
himself. He vrent'to Chicago on busi
ness and was aaked by a family in hit
church to call on a married daugbtei
there. The pastor called and received i
hospitable welcome. They urged bin
to come to dinner , but he had an en
gagement. Then they remarked , "Well ,
will yon not eat a little luncheon ? "
The hostess pointed as she spoke to i . <
email table on which were a small dial )
of salad , some bread and fruit. "Well.
I don't care if I do , " replied the caller ,
who drew up a chair and began an on
slaught on the provisions. He fancied
they had been arranged expressly foi
him , and it was only after he had got
through that he noticed the blank looks
of the family. In fact , he had devoured
the entire luncheon which all had ex
pected to eat.
"Madam , what must you think oi
me ? " he exclaimed to the hostess.
"But let me beg of you not to judge all
Kentnckiuna by me. I am the eole
stupid one in our state. "
He was equal to the lady whose
hostess showed her a dish of water cress
at a side table just before dinner was
served. Thinking it had just been pur
chased , she stuck her hand in the dish
and took a handful of it only to find it
dressed with French salad dressing and
prepared to accompany the birds at the
meal. Louisville Times.
He Noticed tlie Likenens.
A Parisian swell recently bad a
crayon picture of himself made , which
he afterward pretended to find fault
with.
"It does not bear the slightest resem
blance to me. " said he. "and I will not
take it. "
The artist protested , but all to no
avail.
After the dandy had left the painter
added to the portrait a magnificent pair
of ass' ears and exhibited it in the win
dow , thus altered , to the gaze of the
curious public.
It hadn't been long exposed when the
dandy entered the artist's studio in a
towering rage , and , finding that threats
amounted to nothing , he at last offered
to buy it , even at a considerable ad
vance upon the original price.
"It wasn't strange you didn't recog
nize your resemblance to the picture at
first , " said the painter , "but I knew
you'd notice the likeness as soon as I
added those ears. " Spare Moments ,
by Halter.
Among ignorant people of Englisl
birth it is fully believed that a wife
bought with money or goods is legally
married if the purchaser leads her al
the way home by a halter.
Mr. Baring Gould , the English anti
qnarkin. tells of a village poet known
to him who bought a wife for a hal
crown and led her 12 miles to his cot
tage.
tage.The
The squire and the rector protested
to the village poet that he was no
legally wedded.
"Why , yes I be. " he replied. "I'l
take my Bible oath I never once tcok
the halter off till she'd crossed the doorsill -
sill and the door was shut. "
The latest instances of such wife sales
occurred in 18.18 and 1839. when wom
en were sold in Little Horton and in
Dudley In these cases a blue ribbon
took the place of the straw halter.
But , gentle ladies , the symbolic idea
was the same.
A JLiuiKli on I nril Ivulvlii.
A good story is related of Lord Kel
vins' lecturing methods at the Glasgow
university. As a professor of science he
can use long words in such formidable
array as would make a dictionary break
its binding with horror. During a
course of lectures once on magnetism ,
for instance , he defined an ideal mag
net as "an infinitely long , infinitely
thin , uniform and uniformly and longi
tudinally magnetized bar , " and the
misguided students vocifeornsly cheer
ed , which caused the professor to say ,
"Silencel" This definition was made
and cheered , with the usual reprimand ,
frequently during the lectures. Once ,
near the conclusion , however , the stu-
Jents did not cheer , but Lord Kelvin ,
from force of habit , rapped out "Si
lence ! " the same as before.
A Cnte Lad.
A young Irishman once went to a
iind hearted old squire for a recom
mendation. An elaborate one was writ-
; en and read to him. He took it with
thanks , but did not move.
"What's the matter with it ? " roared
the squire.
"Oh , nothin. sorr. ' said the lad
juickly.
"Well , then , why don't you go ? "
"Sure , sorr , I thought on the stringth
> f a recommind like that you'd be
vantin to hire me. " San Francisco

Soniitl Transmission.
Water is a v"ery good transmitter of
onnd. A scientist of the name of Cal-
ado.i made some experiments on Lake
Seneva , Switzerland , to demonstrate
ho power of sound to travel a long way
n water. A clock was made to strike
mder the water and was heard to a
iistance of 12 miles. In a second ex-
leriuient the striking of a clock was
eard to a distance of 27 miles
A Triple Coincidence.
An almost incredible triple coinci-
ence was noted in France a few years
go. In 1894 the deputy for the Ar-
ennes was M. Ferry ; for Loir et Cher ,

the system is accumulating impurities which

HELP. a warning that can not safely be ignored.
To neglect to purify the blood at this
time means more than the annoyance of painful boils and
unsightly pimples. If these impurities are allowed to
remain , the system succumbs to any ordinary illness , and is
unable to withstand the many ailments which ar * so
prevalent during spring and summer.
Mrs. L. Gentile , 2004 Second Avenue , Seattle. Wash .
says : " I was afflicted for a long time with pimples , which
were very annoying , as they disfigured my face fearfully.
