Mother s Friend Is an external liniment for expectant mothers to use. It gives them strength to attend to their household duties almost to the hour of confine ment. It is the one and only prepara tion that overcomes morning sickness and nervousness. It is the only remedy that relaxes and relieves the strain. It is the only remedy that makes labor short and delivery eAsy. It is the only remedy that puts the breasts ia condition so that swelling or rising is impossible. Don't take medicines internally.

A correspondent cf the Charleston Kewa and Courier aaya of the sassafras plant: "The whole plant ia Taloable for Ita medicinal properties. Tbe root znakea an excellent tea. apicy and fra grant, and has alterative virtnea quite as rood aa tbe sarsaparilla.

Clement Scott used to think the first hansom cab driven on tbe stage waa in Andrew Ilalliday'a "Great City," at Drury Lane, in April, 1867. But an old playgoer writes to bim: "The first ban gem cab that waa ever driven on the stage in my recollection waa at the Olympic, under the management of George Wild, in the early part of 1841. It waa in a drama byLaman Blancbard. called "The Road of Life; or. A Cab man's Career." Titles For Sale. The only state in which the sale of nobiliary honors Is open and legal Is, strangely enough, a republio the tiny Italian republio of San Marino, of the existence of which many are unaware. Yon can get a title In San Marino on application and payment of the fee, which ia not alwaya tbe same for the Individual honor and the proceeds are used for the support of the national foundling asylum. Yon have the satis faction of knowing that you have per formed an act of charity, but yon will get little more than that for your money. San Marino distinctions do not count for anything outside the state and for but little within it. Rarest Bird. To find the rarest bird in existence yon must go to the mountains between Anam and Leas, where there ia a cer tain kind of pheasant. For many yeara ita existence was known only by the fact that it longest and most splendid plume was in much request by mandarin for their head gear. A single skin I worth $400, and the bird living would be priceless, for it soon dies in captivity. New York Journal.. The old Norman dialect, or a corrup tion of it, ia still spoken in the Channel islands. Not So Bad. Brown lived between Gray and Green. Green was a quiet a neighbor aa yon could wish to have, and so waa Gray, for that matter, but he had a barking dog that waa the torment of Brown'a life. One day in his desperation he told Gray that if he would get rid of the dog he would give him $5. "All right," said Gray. "I'll do It" Meeting Gray down town that after noon Brown asked, "Have yon done what yon agreed to do and got rid of that dog?" Gray Yea, I've got ri J of bim. Brown Thauk goodness! Now I hall leep night. By the way, what did yon do with hinz? Gray I sold him to Green. He gave me $3 for him. Not so bad, eh: tsn ton Transcript. FAKE "FENCES." X tittle Trick That Is Worked la Baxter Street. "There waa a time and that not eo rery long ago," remarked an old time puller In, "when almost every other store in Baxter , afreet waa a 'fence, or pretended to be. in order to give custom era tbe idea tbat they were getting good bargain. The clerk who took a hesitat ing customer aside and whispered fence' waa generally rare cf n sale. There are no genuine 'fencea'.In Baxter street now, because clothing, ahoea and hata are bo cheap, but some of theatorea till pretend to sell etolen gooda. When a customer in one of these store has looked everything over in the chop and hasn't made a purchase, the salesman tell him tbat he has a little fence down stairs and urge upon him tbe necessity of keeping it quiet on ac count cf the police. Of course the cus tomer won't say a word. So down stairs they go to tbe alleged 'fence, ' which gen erally proves to be a big trunk packed with good. "While showing the content of the trunk tbe salesman keeps up a running yarn about tbe famous criminala who brought the gooda to tbe store. "Finally, after showing a lot of stuff cf the same quality and pattern the customer refused to buy up 6taira, the salesman gets him to try on something, and aa quality, workmanship and per fect fit alwaya go with 'fence goods, there ia a sale made. Thia fake 'fence' answers sale purposes as well as the genuine, "concluded the puller in, "and there is no risk-attached to it" New Ycrk Sun. A Xaral Ilofr, 1702. At 6 this evening Captain Norris coming onboard this ship (the flagship), my Lord Hamilton, Captain Ley, Cap tain Wishart and Captain Trevor were standing on the quarter deck, and. as Captain Norris came up Lord Hamilton asked him if he had taken any more wine or brandy. The other answered no, upon which Captain Trevor . asked the price of his claret, whether he might have any at 4 li. a hogshead. Norris said be would have G li. or salt water, and then Captain Ley Eaid he would rather the prizes were ashore than he would give 6 li. the hogshead; npon which Captain Norris said he waa a rascal that wished his prizes ashore. The other replied he was a rascal, if he called him so, and then Captain Norris struck Captain Ley and threw him over the gun, which Mr. Hopson bearing, as he and I were in my cabin, ran out and upon inquiry found he (Norris) bad hurt Captain Ley, and by the admiral's directions ordered bim to be confined, upon which Captain Norris drew his sword and offered to stab Captain Ley, but Admiral Hopson, holding his hand, ordered him to be disarmed and con- : fined in Mr. Kayney's cabin.

Though ita offensiyo features are sometimes almost unbearable, few people are aware of the danger of which Catarrh is the' forerun ner. Catarrh, inrariably 1 eads to Consumption; Growing worse and worse each winter, those who rely upon the usual treatment of sprays, washes and inhaling mix tures find that it is impossible to check the disease with these local applications which only reach the surface. The offensive discharge increases all the while, causing a feeling of . personal defilement; and gets deeper and ' deeper until it is only a question- of a short time until the lungs are affected. ' The importance of the proper treatment can therefore be readily appreciated. But no good what ever can be expected from local applications, as such treatment never did cure Catarrh, and never will.
