Laxative for
Women Frs
There is a great difference in the
p".rpos23 to which a laxative should
be put. Tablets and pills, salts, etc,
are usually violent "purgatives or
cathartics, and altogether too power
ful for the average person.
X woman at all times needs only
i mild, laxative in fact, none other is
1)xied by anyone, weak or strong though
t::ey may be, for the object is simply to
nu)ve the bowels, and if a gentle laxative
will do it, what is the use of a violent
"" Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has earned
v.-eil-deserved vogue among women and

r..' essarily be careful of what they take.
It is a liquid laxative tonic and ad
mittedly the greatest stomach, liver and
biwel remedy before the American people.
The price is only 50 cents or $1 a bottle.

s'.-ort time will remove the trouble en
tirely so that future medication will be
unnecessary. Its tonic properties build up
t:-i stomach and intestinal muscles so
that they act naturally again. That this
is so is the experience of many heads of

Does the
Guarding a Nail.
A gentleman in Jerusalem told me
that he found a Turkish soldier on
guard in some part of the Church of
the Holy Sepulcher. where it was not
usual, for a sentry to be, and inquired
of him why he was there.
He pointed to a nail in the wall smd
replied, "It is my duty to watch that
nail."
Asked why, he explained that the
Latins or the Greeks I forget which
had driven the nail with the view of
hanging a picture; that a rival sect
had furiously objected, saying that if
was an interference with their prop
erty and wanted to pull out the nail:
that thereupon the Turkish govern
ment had intervened and set him to
watch the nail and see that no picture
was hung upon it and that it was not
pulled out.
To allow the picture to be hung
would have been to admit the claims
of those who drove in the nail. To al
low it to be pulled out would have
been to admit the claims of those who
objected to the driving in of the nail.
Therefore the nail must be preserved
and the picture must not be hung, and
to see that this was so an armed sen
try must watch day and nijrht. For
aught I know he may be watching
still. Rider Haggard's "A Winter Pil
grimage." Traced by a Bluebottle Fly.
Thegreat objection to the use of
poison for rats is that they retire tc
their homes and die there, to become
a nuisance and a menace to health.
Friends of the writer were compelled
to have the floor and wainscoting of
their dining room removed for this
reason. A wiser man, knowing that a
pair of poisoned rats had got under his
floor, summoned not a carpenter, but a
naturalist, to his aid. They knew that
the rats were under the floor, but the
difficulty was to fix the spot. There
seemed to the owner of the house no
alternative to the removal of the
whole floor; hence his appeal to the
nature detective. The latter would
not hear of the floor coming up. He
cried out for a bluebottle fly. One was
captured unhurt and turned loose in
the room. After a little preliminary
hawking the bluebottle darted to the
floor and remained on one spot, like
a pointer which has found game.
"Your rats are under there," said
the naturalist. They cut down through
that board, and there were the rats.

The First Pantomime.
John Rich has the credit of produc
ing the first pantomime ever seen in
England. This was performed on
Dec. 26, 1717, at the theater in Lin
coln's Inn Fields. Rich had found him
self unable to compete with the legiti
mate drama at Drury Lane, so he be
thought himself of the comic masques
occasionally performed in London and
combined with their scenic and me
chanical effects the maneuvers of the
pantomime ballet. The result was
"Harlequin Executed," which the ad
vertisement of that day described as
"a new Italian mimic scene, between
a scaramouch, a harlequin, a country
farmer, his wife and others." There
was all the business with which we
were familiar from childhood, huts
turned into palaces, shops into gar
dens, houses into trees. Of course the
"earnest student of the drama" pro
tested against this innovation, but
Harlequin, Columbine & Co. have
maintained their hold on public favor
until the present year of grace.
He Knew Them.
This was overheard in the lobby of
a big hotel in Cincinnati when a bus
load of traveling salesmen came from
the station. Every man of them as
he signed the register paused to shake
hands with the hotel clerk fatherly
old fellow who had been there many
years. "Ah." said one of them to the
clerk, "It's a good thing you're still on
deck, Uncle Dave. I don't think the
house could run without you."
"Couldn't it, though!" said Uncle Dave
"You fellows would come in here, and
if there was a strange clerk you'd
say, 'Where's Uncle Dave?' And the
clerk would say: 'Why, didn't you
hear? He died a month ago.' And
then you'd say: Well. I'll be darned
That's too bad. Say, when '11 din

Dressing the Sponge.
When sponges are first torn from
the sea bed they are of a dark color
and living. By tramping and pressing
them with the feet a milky substance
aozes out. whereupon the sponge dies.
They are then immersed in the sea
for a space of eight or ten hours. The
lark, skinny substance is then remov
ed by scraping, and gradually, through
('leaning, drying and bleaching, they
take on the fine yellow color which
characterizes many of them.

THt uHERQKEE ROSE.
Romantic Indian Legend of This Beau
tiful Flower.
There is a beautiful romance con
nected with the Cherokee rose. A
young Indian chief of the Seminole
tribe was taken prisoner by his ene
mies, the Cherokees, and doomed to
torture, but fell so seriously ill that it
became necessary to wait for his resto
ration to health before committing him
to the tire.
As he lay prostrated by disease in
the cabin of the Cherokee warrior the
daughter of the latter, a young, dark
faced maid, was his nurse. She fell in
love with the young chieftain and,
wishing to save his life, urged him to
escape. But he would not do so unless
she would flee with him.
She consented. Before they had gone
far, impelled by regret at leaving
home, she asked permission of her
lover to return for the purpose of
ben ring away some memento of it. So,
retracing her footsteps, she broke a
sprig from the white rose which climb
ed up the poles of her father's tent
and, preserving it during her flight
through the wilderness, planted it by
the door of her new home in the land
of the Seminoles. And from that day
this beautiful flower has always been
known throughout the southern states
by the name of the Cherokee rose.

A SCRAP OF PAPER.
Charred and Discarded, It Brought
Wealth to a Poor Widow.
Some years ago a poor widow kept a
small shop in a Berlin suburb. One
evening as she was serving a customer
a worklngman stepped into the shop
and asked permission to light his pipe.
Drawing a piece of paper from his
pocket, he twisted it up and, after
lighting his pipe, threw down the spill
and walked off with a word of thanks.
When sweeping the floor the follow
ing morning the widow took up the
charred paper out of idle curiosity and,
unfolding it, saw that it was a lottery
ticket, only a portion of which had
been burned. She folded it up, put it
away in her pocket and had almost
forgotten it, when the result of a large
lottery drawing caught her eye in the
paper.
She then remembered the crumbled
ticket in her pocket, and on producing
it found, to her amazement and de
light, that it had won a prize of $50,
000. She claimed the prize, and, al
though she advertised widely for its
original owner, with the intention of
sharing it with him, she was left in
undisturbed possession of her fortune.
Exchange.
When John Was In Doubt.
John was a coachman who took life
most seriously and, being very particu
lar, would return frequently in the
course of the day to make sure he un
derstood the orders that had been
given him in the morning. One after
noon he presented himself before his
mistress and began:
"Mrs. T., Oi'm not quite certain ez
to Mr. TVs ordher this mornin'. . Oi
was droivin' him to the thrain, an' he
noticed that the horse was lame, an'
he told me to do somethin' to him,
mum: but. sure. Oi don't know whither
he told me to shoe him or to shoot him.
Mebbe ye can till me."
A shoeing was evidently required,
but the execution of the order and
likewise of the horse was deferred un
til Mr. T. returned.
Serious Interruptions.
The truly lazy man is not a common
figure in this country, and when he
does appear he is not treated with
proper respect. Ideal laziness is an
art as difficult as playing on the violin.
A writer in the Washington Star tells
of one member of the Sons of Rest
who deserves recognition.
"I s'pose John is still taking life
easy?" said the woman in the spring
wagon.
"Yes," answered the woman who
was carrying an armful of wood.
"John has only two regrets in life.
One is that he has to wake up to eat,
and the other is that he has to quit eat
ing to sleep." Youth's Companion.
Ancestral Pride.
"Do you still want this geueaology?"
asked the man who digs up such
things.
"Sure, I do. Why not?"
"Well, I've found that your great-great-grandfather
was hanged for mur
der, your great-grandfather was im
prisoned for robbery, and your grand
father was tarred and feathered foi
beating his wife. That's not a very
proud record, is it?"
"I should say it is. Shows how my
family is getting better each genera
tion. I'm an improvement on the
whole bunch never 1 been in jail yet.
Let me have? those records. I'm proud
of 'em!" Cleveland Leader.

Origin of Old Glory.
In the reminiscences of Lord Ronald
fJower is found a story of the origin of
the stars and stripes.
The -"star spangled banner" of the
American republic had its origin from
an old brass on the floor of an ancient
church in Northamptonshire.. The brass
covers the tomb of one Robert Wash
ington and is dated 1622. On it ap
pears the Washington coat of arms,
consisting of three stars, with bars or
stripes beneath them. On the first day
of the new year, 1776, the thirteen
united colonies raised a standard at
Washington's headquarters.
This introduced the stripes of the
present, but retained the crosses of St.
George and St. Andrew on a blue
ground in the corner. In 1777 the
erosses were replaced by stars, as the
Declaration of Independence rendered
the retention of the English element
unnecessary and inconvenient. In thus
adopting the arms of his ancestors as
his own distinctive badge Washington
no doubt intended the flag merely as a
private signal for his own personal fol
lowing, but it was at once adopted as
a national emblem. Probably there is
not another case in the world's history
in which the private arms of an ob
scure family have attained such world
wide eminence and repute.
The Bank Could Stand It.
A western lawyer tells of a remark
able instance of the convincing power
of feminine logic as evidenced by an
occurrence which he once witnessed
while standing ou the edge of a crowd
that was besieging the doors of a bank
supposed to be on the point of sus
pending payment.
A conversation between a rosy cheek
ed Irishwoman and her husband, who
were near the lawyer, at once attract
ed his attention.
"Mary," said the man, "we must
push up, so ye can dhraw your money
at onctl"
"But I don't want to draw it out,
Roger," replied Mary placidly.
"Don't ye know, Mary," persisted the
husband, "that they'll lose your mon
ey for ye if ye don't hurry t' dhraw it
out?"
"An' shurp, Roger." retorted Mary,
"ain't thej- better able to lose it than
we are ?"
Roger was stunned by this unan
swerable logic, and after a few more
words the two withdrew. Fortunate
ly the bank survived its difficulties,
nnd no depositor lost a cent. Harper's.
A Purse For the Bride.
Some brides may be Inclined to re
gret that the old marriage custom of
the dow purse has fallen into disuse.
It was the custom of the bridegroom
to fill a purse with a goodly sum of
money and present it to the bride on
the wedding day as the price of the
purchase of her person. It sounds like
slavery, like the buying of goods and
chattels, yet the bride had a nice lit
tle sum of money for her own use.
Some of the oldest inhabitants of
Cumberland may remember a similar
custom in that county. The bride
groom provided himself with a num
ber of gold and silver pieces, and at
the words "with all my worldly goods
I thee endow" he handed the clergy
man his fee and poured the other
coins into a handkerchief held out for
that purpose by the bride. In other
places, again, the bride had the right
to ask her husband for a gift of money
or property on the day after the wed
ding, and he was bound in honor to
grant the request. London Answers.
Sixty Kinds of Bananas.
To most persons in the temperate
zones a banana is a banana. But the
truth is that there are over sixty
known varieties of the fruit, with as
great or greater variation in character
as in the different kinds of apples.
Hawaii is said to have something over
forty distinct varieties of the fruit,
most of which have been introduced
by the whites. Some of these are of
extremely delicate and delicious flavor,
while other kinds are used, if at all.

The Bee's Market Basket.
Every bee carries his market basket
around his hind legs. Any one exam
ining the body of the bee through a

hind legs of the creature there is a

hairs approaching each other at the
tips, so as to form a sort of cage. This
is the bee's basket, and into it after
a successful journey he will cram

An Amateur Conjurer.
During a little pedestrian trip a gen
tleman came unexpectedly upon a
country race course and on one por
tion of the ground found a thimblerig
establishment in full work. Notwith
standing the remonstrance of his com
panion, the gentleman, who was a bit
of a madcap, insisted on watching the
game.
"Now, would the gent like to wager
a crown he could find the pea?" re
marked the expert.
"Yes," was the reply.
The money was on both sides depos
ited, and the pedestrian, lifting up the
thimble, pointed out the required pea
and took the stakes.
A second bet. "double or quits," end
ed, to the surprise of the expert, in the
same result.
Then a third wager, "a pound or
nothing," steadied the nerves of the
loser, and the trick was accomplished
with great caution. The gentleman
lifted up the thimble and showed the
pea, at the same time pocketing the
stakes.
"S'help me," etc., "I didn't put It
there!" exclaimed the bewildered art
ist. "No, but. I always carry my own
pea," rejoined the man who had come
out right as he went on his way with
the spoils of war. London Tit-Bits.
In Modern Egypt.
Douglas Sloden's book on Egypt
contains some curious anecdotes. For
instance: "My doctor was called to see
an Egyptian who was in a very low
state. 'What is the matter?' he asked.
'I think it is only depression. I have
been a fool and lost a law case. I
would not backsheesh the other man's
lawyer, and he backsheeshed mine.'
Later on when another Egyptian told
my friend that he had won a law case
my friend said, 'I suppose you back
sheeshed the other man's lawyer?'
The Egyptian gave a beautiful smile
and said. 'How did you know?' "
And again: "I was at Luxor when
they were recruiting for the army. If
a young man was found to be phys
ically fit his relations were plunged in
grief. Professional mourners were
hired to squat outside the police sta
tion where the recruiting took place,
yelling and weeping. If, on the other
hand, he was rejected as undersized
or a weakling or tainted with a loath
some disease, his relations and friends
flew to him rejoicing and kissed him
and hung on his neck."
"Goes" of Whisky.
Forty "goes" of whisky had been
consumed by the licensed victualer,
and still he was sober at least so he
told the city coroner. "Goes" is a com
mon term in this connection, but it
lacks the full appropriateness to the
situation of its Scottish equivalent in
the story of another big drink told by
Dean Ramsay. It was at a party near
Arbroath, held to celebrate the recon
ciliation of two farmers who had long
been enemies. When the party at last
broke up, at a morning hour, the pe
nurious lady of the house, who had not
been able "to sleep a wink for anxiety,
called over the stairs to the servant:
"How many bottles of whisky have
they used. Betty?"
"I dinna ken. mem," was the answer,
"but they've druncken six gang o' wa
ter." To the poor girl, who had to "gang"
to the well for the qualifying fluid,
these were "goes" indeed. London
Chronicle.
Expert- Figuring.
A well known actor tells a story of
a ne'er-do-well in a little New Eng
land town where he has often spent
his summers. "I was walking down
the main street one day," said he.
"when I saw old Silas grinning from
ear to ear. I hardly thought that he
was that glad to see me. So after
speaking to him I said: 'Why the smile
that won't come off, Silas? What has
happened to make you so happy this
morning?" 'I've been a-gittin' married
this mornin', was the unexpected re
ply. 'Married! You?' I exclaimed.
'Why, Silas, what on earth have you
done that for? You know you can't
even support yourself as it is.' 'Waal,'
said Silas, 'you see. it's this way: 1
ken purty near support myself, an' I
kind of figured out that she could fin

A Sensible Person.
An old Scottish lady during her last
Illness was assiduously attended by
a physician, to whom she invariably
gave a guinea when he came to see
her. He told the friends with whom
she lived that her death would proba
bly be very sudden, and one day when
she seemed to have become uncon
scious the doctor was hastily sent for.
On his arrival he found that his pa
tient had ceased to exist, and, taking
hold of her right hand, which was
closed, but not rigid, he calmly ex
tracted from it the customary fee, re
marking as he did so to the attendant
friends, "Sensible to the last!"
