g lie Bought bog and the Next Night
K Go In to -Trouble.
i Mrs. Rounder had insisted that her hus
S ; band should buy :a dog. I Rounder did not
X like the idoa, having grave doubts of the
advisability ot having -a savage brute
around. But Mrs. Rounder said that she
5R would feel safer when Mr. Rounder was
, x detained late down town on important
j business if there was a good dog about.
So Rounder yielded, and the dog was
9: bought.
S ;- That night when Rounder, wjth uncer
0 tain steps, made his way home he was
TwaTtTtte front d.
Rounder, who had ho use for dogs, paus
ed upon the first step, uncertain what to
do.
"Good" dog, nice doggy," he cooed per
suasively in a thick voice.
i'But the dog showed no signs of friend-.
liness, and Rounder,.took a new tack.
"It'sall ri or man. I'm yer "daddy.
I'm the ol' man. Thatrs ri You know
me. Come on inside an have a bone on
me."
Still the dog showed no sign that he
recognized Rounder, who sat down on the
first step and thought the situation over.
Slowly it dawned through his befuddled
brain that the last car had left for down
town,-and it was a question of getting by
the dog or camping out for -the rest of the
night.
"Bloomin outrage," he mumbled to him
self. "My house, my dog. I'll kick the
stuffin out of him if he doesn't acknowl
edge the fac' pretty soon."
Suddenly he was seized with a bright
idea. He would find a policeman and get
him to kill the brute.
Rounder walked four times around the
block before he was rewarded by finding
an officer to pour out his tale of woe to.
"Officer," he mumbled thickly, "awful
savage dog" on my porch. Bigger'n a
meetin house. Giin't go home. Bloomin
outrage. Gtin to sue the city for $1,000,
000 damage.."
When the officer finally grasped the
situation, he took Rounder by the arm
and led him home. Taking one look at
the object that was keeping Rounder
from the bosom of his family, the officer
kicked it aside and told Rounder to go iu
and keep quiet.
. it was the ouorimiT chat some one had
.vked up ahd neglected to replace. Do

A CLEVER TRICK.
It certainly looks like it, but there is
really no 'trick about It. Anybody can
try it who has lame back and weak kid-
nevis. ma.ia.lria or nervous troubles. We
mean he can cure nimself right away by
taking Electric Bitters. This medicine
tones up the whole system, acts as a
stimulant to liver and kidneys, is a blood
purifier and nerve tonic. It cures consti
pation, headache, fainitlng spells, sleep
lessness and melancholy. It is purely
vegetable, a mild laxative, and restores
the system to its natural vigor. Try
Electric Blters and be convinced that
they are a miracle worker. Every bot
tle guaranteed. Only 50 cents a bottle

Something Wrong With Jobnuv.
On this particular evening his elder sis
ter had told him to say to Mr. Hankinson
that "she had a bad cold and was sorry
she could not come down. '
On this occasion also he was in a bad
humor.
There was no candy.
Wherefore when Mr. Hankinson said:
"Where is your sister, Johnny?"
Johnny replied:
"She's up stairs sneezin "her blamed
head off!" Chieago Tribune.
STORY OF A SLAVE.
To be bound hand and foot for years
by 'the chains of disease is the worst form
of slavery. George D. Williams, of Man
chester, Mich., tells how such a slave
was made free. He says: "My wife has
been so helpless for five years that she
could not turn over in bed alone. After
using two bottles of Electric Bitters,
she is wonderfully Improved and able
to do her own work'TMs supreme

ORCHARD AND GARDEN;
Unfruitful "orchards, "as a rule, are s-v
because the soil is deficient in plant food. '
In all transplanting it is essential that
the soil comes in close contact with the-
roots. ... - " "
Fruit trees may be planted in the yard f
for ornament and for fragrance as well ;
as for, fruit.
The best raspberries, plums and pears
have been grown where poultry has been
allowed to run.
Trees must be fed just as any other "
plant is fed. Many an orchard is simply
starred to death. . ,
Cultivation in the orchard while the
trees are growing tends to induce the -roots
to grow deeper. "
To cause a quick, strong growth" of
roses and carnations use nitrate of soda
solution in watewig.
Thinning out V' the wormy and imper
fect specimens of fruit should be done as
soon as they can be distinguished.
Set a piece of stiff cardboard or bend a
piece of tin around cabbage and tomato
plants as a protection against cut worms

SPREADS LIKE WILD FIPB.
You can't keep a good thing down.
News of it travels fast. When things
are "the best" they become "the best
sedling." Abraham Hare, a leading;
druggist of Belleville, Ohio, .writes:
"Electric Bitters are the best selling
bitters I have ever handled in my 20
years experience." Ycu know why? -Most
diseases begin in disorders of the
stomach, liver, , bowels, blood and
