How's
Your Liver?
Is tho Oriental salutation,
knowing that good health
cannot exist without a
healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow
els are sluggish and con
stipated, the food lies
in tho stomach undi
gested, poisoning tho
blood; frequent headache
ensues; a tecling of lassi
tude, despondency and
nervousness indicate how
tho whole system is do
ranged. Simmons Liver
Regulator has been the
means of restoring more
people to health and
happiness by giving them
a healthy Liver than any
agency known on eartli.
It acts with extraor
dinary powor and efficacy.

COWARD, OR HERO?
A mortgage having swallowed up the
dear old Roberts turn
ed what little was left into money and
took up one of the fai Was.
tern Stales
At firet the little two-roomed frame
socmed like an upturned dry-goods box
to tho bal.-dozen sturdy boys and girl
who had bean accustomed to A wide,
many-sided, old-ft>hiou&d house in the
Kast, but by the and of the second
summer thay bad learned the ways ol
their frontier neighbors, and lelt fair!)
establishad in their new home.
l'he vast prarie seemed very lonely
■till to the patiepi mother, yet she sel
dom spoke of it, and always kept up a
brave heart before her husband aud the
children.
When alone, she had a strange fancy
for olosiug the doors and blinds, in or.
dor to shut out the sunny outoi world.
"The earth seems so vast, it awes inc
to see it stretching away ibto tho blue
iky she would say wheu ral
lied OD ncr queer habit.
I said there were half a dozen sturdy
boys and girls but ihcrn was one, Luk.>,
who could lay no claim to the term
"sturdy," for he was neither bravo nor
strong. Though over thirteen he was a
great coward, turning pale at any un
usual sound, aud at night shrinking
froin his own shadow. Hen and Cieoge,
aged fifteen and seventeen, twitted him
unmercifully on beir.g such a girl boy,
declaring that Meg, his twin-sister' was
worth half a dozen sncli babies when
there was any rare sport ou hand. Ever,
little Ned and b.ihy Janie, were heroej
when compared with tho boy who would
scarcely ventvro alone across the pra
rie, even in broad daylight.
Often he would exchange work witn
Meg, for she was a genuine toui-boy,
and nothing pleased her better thau a
ehauce to help in the harvest field, or a
regular frolic at snowball in the Win
tor.
Though tormented beyond enduranoj
the poor lad hai never complained
believing in bis heart that he was in.
deed the coward his brothers made him
out.
One bright moruing, in the latter
part of September, Mr Roberts started
to the city with a load of grain. As
bad been in poor health fur
some time, he insiste I on her accomp i
nying hnn, hoping that the ride would
do her good. At the last moment the
old grandfather declared his intention
of looking unco more upon tho outside
world, to the boys and Meg were left
iu oharge of the house and child-ci.
The fiiat night they were a little timid,
for a wolf bad been seen iu the v.cu ;y
a few days before, but as no harm came
ta them in the dajkacss, they laughed at
their fears when the sun rose, and by
the next night they had grown won
drus bravo.
On the morning of (bo third Jay—it
wn > a tbe 30th of September—tue
iri'iti uihc with tie HUD, und an tbe DAY
ndvauced, it increased iu violence,
tbreatning, at timet, to overturn tbe
little browo houao that rocked like a
trail toy upon its foundation.
JU4t at noon little .Ned rushod tuto
tbo kitchen, crying :
•'There's a black cloud of smoke
comiug from the south."

"Hotter crawl into the cellar," sag
gestad lien, in quivering voioe.
•'No, the house will only be fuel for
the flames. It we make Uaste we may
keop in advauoe of the fire, and possi
bly reaoh Prarieville in time to escape,'
answered George, as be took Janio in
his arms and started for the stable.
" ft e must stop the fire," said Luke,
in a hoarse Toica, stopping out in front
of George. His face was white, and
bis hand trembled violently, but there
was a itiai.gc ri'-.g of (icsisiff.i iu his
votua that biased George to stop and
listen.
"Wo can do cotliing, Luke, so what'*
the use of sacrificing our lives," was
the older buy's retort, as he broke awav
from Luke's gra*p.
More fleet of foot than his Brother,
Luke reached tho stable fiist, and tho
Mxt moment he was hitching old Dan
to the plough instead of tho eart.
•'lt i. fortunate tbat you had not re
moved tho harness," he said, as tho
other boys came up. "We must pluw
a few furrows, and start a back fire.
George and I wiil take chaaga of old
Dan, and you Hen, bring our woolen
coats from tho kitchen Meg, you
must stay in the bouse with the ohilden.
Don't leave thein on any pretext." Si
lently and without questioning the boys
obeyed, snd soon tho dull plow was
turning up the baked ground, fuinung
n line of safety for the imprisoned chil
dren. T lie air was now full of cinders,
and tho intense heat of the oncoming
tire Htiged the hair of the lads who were
toiliug mightily to save their home.
Applying their matches in several
plse.es, tho long grass was sent in little
curling flames to meet the fiery current
that was sweeping down upon it; an J
then when the terrible danger was over
poor Luke, weak and trembling, sank
down upon the grouud in a death-like
swoon. Kind !>and« restored bun to
consciousness, ami then, almost rever
ently the light f'.iv:n was borne in the
aruis of his brothers to the home made
doubly dear bv the danger that had
threatened. Soarcely had they reached
the house, when the thud of hoofs was
heard in the distance, it was their
father. Ili had scon the .smoke, aud,
unhitching the fleetest horse, had gal
loped home, Loping to be ahead of the
fire. When he saw Luke lying there,
so limp and white, ho said, in pitting
voice : "Poor boy, I was afraid he
would be frightened half t» death."
"He did not seem frightened until
the Hie was subduod," said Gcorgo;
and then he went on to tell bow Luke,
the coward, had fought for the fafety of
ths home and ths homo and the lives
of the children.
"My poor, brave boy," .-xclaimed
the father, proudly, "bow w" have mis
understood him. I hope ho willl never
be called a coward again." And ho
never was. A severe illness followed
his over-exertion, and for a time his life
seemed to hang iu the balance, but at
last he was given back to life ; yet it
WHS a long time before ho was strong
enough to venture out of the house,
and 1 aui not quite certain that his ner
vous system ever rallied altogether from
she effects of the shock he received tbat
September day.
1 do not know that lift was really any
braver after his experience, but bo wa9
much happier, for bo was never again
twittod about bis lack of oourago; and
to a sensitive nature liko his this was a
positive relief. He had shown that be

hero.—Christian Observer.
A brutal murder was committed

"On the farin of ■ Mr. Tuttle of

"I waited thirty years for my Inn
band and it was not until three weeks
ago that ho came f«ir mo. If our mar
riage were knowu it would create the
biggest kind of a sensation all over Mis

This star tling piece of information,
says the Chicago Ti ibuuf, was extended
to William L, Rcmedith of Seattle,
Wash ,by a woll-cducated woman of
50 when tho St. Louis limi ud was
bearing a train-load of passengers Mr
Kemcditb and tho refined-looking
womau among tho number -from Col
umoia, Mo., to St. Luuij at tho rate of
sixty miles an hour one day last
week.
44 The woman told uia that much of
I the hietory of her life, but refused to
toll much more," said Ur. Renieditb
yesterday at the Grand Pacific Hotel
when 6peaUing of tbo incident. "1
become acquainted with her on /he
train, as passengers sometimes will, and
sho was suoh a remarkable woman that
I cannot get hor out of my mind. I
have thought of her every hour since
I left her at Bt. Louis several days ago
aud I actually believe the woman hid
partially hypsotiiod mo. She refused to
tell nio her name, but said she was a
sister of the rebel General Pi ice, and
that her nistef had married a General
Royal or Royos. Her home is at Co
lumbia, and it was there, she said, she
was married to the man for whom she
waited thirty years. Everything she
told me was without, any svlioitatian on
my part, and 1 do not consider that any
of the information was extended in con
fidence. If the news of her marriage
would create a seoi-atinn in Missouri'
I aui pure the sleepy old town of St.
Louis would be under everlasting obli
gations to General Prioe's lister for
anything that will vary the humdrum
ex'stancc af that part of the country is
alwajs welcome
"Oh, no; the woman was not insane
sbe was simply talking about having
romance w«ven into a person's life, aud
incidentally droppod the startling in
formation about licrsolf. I should cer.
taiuly lik'! to know the woman's histoiy
for 1 knuw bur life has been a most
