"He saw Chamberlain's Colic, Colera and Diarrhoea Remedy advertised in the Philippi Republican and decided to try it. The result is one bottle cured him and he has not suffered with the disease for eighteen mouths. Before taking this remedy he was a constant suf ferer. He is now sound and well, and although sixty years old, can do as much work as a-young man." Sold bv All Druggists and Dealers in Patent Medicine. PATE DE FOIE GRAS. / t sarful Cruelty That Makes This Dainty a Poaaibility. To tbe ordinary ruau and woman no conception of the torture to which tbe poor, unfortunate goose is put could possibly be formed. Tbe geese when about nine months old are taken from tbe pastures anil placed lu an underground cellar, where broad, slanting stone slabs stand in rows, and are bound fast to the ta bles. They are literally crucified. Feet, wings and bodies are spread out and bound by bands, so thut only tbe neck Is left free. As may be Imag ined. the animal struggles with all its might against this stretching till, after days of vain endeavor to free Itself from tbe bauds and its position. Its powers of resistance are o»i-ri?ome, and a dull resignation, broken only by Its low cries, takes possession of It. Two months must pass away before death brings relief. The animals are meanwhile crammed d-ir.'pllngs rnndn of dough of buckwheat, chestnuts and e tewed maize. Every two hours, six times a da.v. ibe.v receive from three to five duinpiing piils, which In time become so sweet to tbe tortured creatures that they stretclT their necks to be cram med. The most difficult task Is to deter nTTne the right moment for death. 'I hose who die of their own accord are lost to the liver factory; therefore a kind of study Is needed to see when tbe cup of agony is brimming full and tbe liver Is ripe for taking. The bod ies of such ripe ones are like pump kins. Where ordinarily Angers are burled In rtesh and fat nothing but skin and bone are found. The livers have absorbed ail the strength and juices. WHY WE SLEEP. Darkness and Our Eyes the Anawtr, Says a Scientist. - ' If it were always daylight we should never sleep. So says a scientist. There Is uo particular reason why we or any other animals should rest on an average eight or nine hours a day. The period of rest lias been deter mined by the fact that ei"ht hour* Is the average time when there is a lack of sufbcleut light to enable us to move about lu comfort. This most fundamental distinction bet ween day and night is wholly rela tive to the sense of siglft. It only af fects those types of life which have developed eyes. Plants, being dependent for their growth upon the action of rn.vs of' sunlight which fall upon their leaves, have a wide distinction between day and night functions. They eat and digest in tbe light nud grow duriuij the hours of darkness. The lowest forms of animal life— , the sightless denizens of ocean dc;>fh* —do not rest at regular Interval*. 1 hey prowl around incessantly, seeking prey by the sense of touch alone, \viifii i hey rest it Is at Irregular pe riods. in other - words, they have no distinct periodicity of their own. Hut as soon as eyes are developed, and in proportion of this development, animals begin to divide their tliue into two main portions—a waking and a sleeping time. While there Is light they perform nil motive functions. When darkness comes they retire to nest or lair to rest.—Cleveland i'iaiti Healer. " ; Chinese Athletics.

They have plenty of stories of strong men callable of wielding extraordinary weapons, of bending wondrous bow s or of lifting heavy weights, etc. Even within the last few years feats of archery were done before an >;!!• or could get Ills commission In the army, and In almost any village there is a bamboo with a pierced stone at either end to test the strength of llie rising generation In lifting. But there mil nothing of regular athletic training, ex cept for a few wrestlers perhaps, be fore foreigners came.—Shanghai Mer cury. A Strong Hint. They, had met for the first ttrne sTnetf their schooldays aud were telling each other of their professional careers. "Aud how did you come to leave the stageV" asked one. •♦I had a hint that I was not suited , for It." "I see. Tbe little birds told you. eh 7" "Well, uo: uot exactly. .
