Dh. j. bradfield: Dear Sir Some fifteen years
ago I examined the recepe ef Ft male Regular, and
aaremlto studied authoriti in regard to its compo
nents. and tbco (as well as now) pronounced It to
be the most scientific and skillful combination oi
the jeally reliable renedial vegetable agents known
to sdenoe, to act dsrectly on tbe womb and uterine
organs, and tbe organs and parts symoatuizing ai
wseth with these: and, therefore, providing a speci
fie remedy for all diseases of the won.b, and of the
djaeent organs and parts. Yours truly,

The Power of an Old Son;;.

There is something about an old song that
vicKs a man up, body and boots, and carries
him back to the long ago, when a dime looked
as big as a barrel hoop, and no one can recall
the days of childhood without being warmed
with thought of good, and feeling sad re
grets that those bright moments should hare
tad an end. An old fiddle with a string
misting will make a grandmother forty years
younger in two minutes, if it happens to get
in the neighborhood of a tune that was whis

"Well, Gabe, my youngest wah, hoo, wah,

"So, not a bit, just right."
"Well, I don't know the style in this place,
but I'll try an' put up with it."
"Mark" showed no pity. J. he visitor,
after a moment's silence, continued: "When
left home, Mur that's my wile said to
me, says she, 'Now say, while you are thar
don't smoke that cob pipe.' 'Well, mother,'
says I, 'what'U I smoke.' I never could stand
a se gyah fur it amt got no strength
'Well then,' says Mur, 'don't smoke none.' I
wanted to follow her advice, but I put my
wah, hoo, wah, hoo old fuzee m my jeans
an' now I bTeve I'll take a smoke."
He took out a cob pipe and a twist of new
ground tobacco, known in his neighborhood
as "Tough Sam," whittled off a handful,
filled his pipe, lighted it, put his feet on the
stove and went to work. "Mark ' soon be
gan to snuff the foul air, but he was deter
mined to stand it. Had he been acquainted
with the numerous strong points of "Tough
Sam" he would have surrendered at once,
but this was his first introduction to
' Samuel." The visitor blew smoke like a
tar kiln. "Twain" grew restless. Beads of
cold perspiration began to gather on his
brow. He feit dizzy and seasick. Then,
throwing down his pipe, he hastily un
locked the door and fled. On the sidewalk
he met a f riend.
"Helloa, Clemens, what's the matter?"
Twain told him what had occurred.
' Ob, you mean .that fellow in brown
jeans?'
. "Yes." i
"You ought to have had better sense than
to light your pipe in his presence. He's a
member of the Arkansaw legislature."

Eggs are Eggs.
Boston Evening Record.
The wife of a certain suburban was that
nuisance among good cooks a perpetual
borrower. One day it was a cupful of sugar;
thenext, a box of blueing and the clothes
wringer, and so on. And she wasn't half as
good at returning as she was at borrowing.
One day in the midst of her cooking not an
egg was to be found. Over she went to one
of her neighbors, a widow of small means,
and borrowed the two or three eggs she hap
pened to have in the house. Several weeks
elapsed, when one forenoon she appeared in
the widow's kitchen with tnrea eggs in a
paper bag.
"Good morning, Mrs. S. I have come to
return something you let me have the other
day. 1 had boiled eggs for breakfast this
morning and these are three I had left over.
Eyes are eggs, you know."
