LASHED TEN'TI'M‘ES AND PILLORIZED
For the Great Crime of Stealing an Um-
brella in Delawere.
One hour in the pillory, ten lashes
on his bare back at the whipping post
and three months in the county jail.
That was the Severe penalty imposed
upon James Harris in the Court of
General Sessions of Newcastle County,
Delaware, the other day at \l'ilming-
ton. after he had entered a plea of
“guilty” to a charge of stealing an
umbrella.
Jennie Harris, his wife, who was his
accomplice in the theft, also answered
“guilty,” but her sentence was light.
Women are exempt from punishment
at the\pillory and whipping post, but
they are not exempt from imprison-
.nent. Mrs. Harris’ part in the great
crime brought a sentence of one day
upon her. After she had served her
:‘entence she went into the jail yard
and looked at her husband as he ston‘d
in the pillOry. A few hours later she
saw the heavy cat-o—nine-tails fall with
a “crack” ten times upon his bare
shoulders and back. When the last
lash had been plied she burst into
tears. Then she went to him and
hissed him an affectionate farewell.
The people of Delaware hold to the
whipping post because they believe the
fear of it keeps many criminals out of
the State. Men have been whipped
at the post in Newcastle- with forty
lashes for the theft of a hog.—~New
York Journal.

THE COST OF REPETITION.
His Little Game Didn’t Work with the
Non-Sensitive Man.
There is a public man in VVashing-
ton who affects deafness at times and
thereby saves himself annoyance from
people who do not want to shout their
private business into his car while
other persons are about. But the plan
doesn’t always work well.‘ The public
man saw an office—seeker approaching
and rightly suspected that he was to
be bored with a tale of woe. He
greeted the office-seeker kindly ,and
then pretended to have difliculty in
hearing him. The story of hard luck
was told all the same. At the end of
it came the stereotyped request:
“Lend me $5, please.”
“What do you say?” asked the pub-
ilc man in a tone which he thought
might deter the would-be borrower,
especially as others were standing
near.
"Lend me $10?" came in a tone
which drew the attention of every-
body within twenty feet.
“Why, yes,” was the reply.
The bill was produced and passed
over; As the lender followed with
his eyes the retreating borrower he
said a little bitterly:
“I’d have saved $5 if I’d heard him
the first time.”-—-St. Louis Globe—
Dvemocrat. ,
LONG BRIDAL TOUR.
It Has Been Going On Now Seven Years
and the End In Not Yet.
George Glasson Lizotte, formerly
an officer in the French army, and
Miss Harlan, daughter of Austin
Bishop Harlan, were married nearly
seven years ago, since which time
they have been on one continuous
wedding trip. Mrs. Lizotte, who is a
niece of General Lew Wallace; first
met Mr. Lizotte in New York, where
she was travelling with the General.
Immediately after the wedding the
couple started on their bridal trip,
which has been continued unbroken
until a short time ago, when they
stopped to visit the bride’s old home
at Julietta, 111., while en route from
Alaska to Nova Seotiu. During their
trip they have visited 1,480 towns and
cities in the United States, 235 in
Canada and 45 in Mexico. They have
ridden over every line of railway in
these three countries, on every boat
line and on every stage line. Both of
them are enthusiastic for travelling,
and they purpose to keep it up indef-
initely.—Chicago. Ehronicle. .
‘I
Brandreth’s Pills
The difference between these pills and, all other medicines is
told in the following statement of facts: ‘
Ist. They have been in active demand in the markets of theworld since 1770,
or for nearly one hundred and thirty years. _
2d. They are purely vegetable, and are made of the purest and highest
class drugs, obtainable.
3d. They are kept for two years in our storehouses after being made, and
no pills are sold until they are TWO YEARS old. This allows them to
become thoroughly mellowed and makes of them’ the very best
and safest cathartic medicine that it is possible to procure.
4th. They never become inured to the system; that is, the same dose
will always produce the same effect. This cannot truthfully be said
of any other medicine. There are others who claim it, but
demonstrations show it to be true only of BRANDRETH’S PILLS. ..
5th. They never produce griping or pain unless the stomach is in a very
acid condition, and then only if the dose is a large one. In doses of
one or two pills they never Cause pain or other inconvenience.
6th. One pill taken after a heavy meal will relieve distress immediately.
7th. BRANDRETH‘S PILLS are composed one-third of the best extract of sarsa—
parilla that can be made. It is highly concentrated and it makes of these
pills the best blood purifiers that you can get, one 25-cent box con-
taining more of the active blood-purifying principle of sarsaparilla
than a dollar’s worth of any liquid preparation in the market.
8th. One or two, taken every night, will cure rheumatism in almost every
. instance. I '
9th. They are a pOSltIVB and effective remedy for constipation and for all the
long list of ills that follow in its wake—~such as dyspepsia, dizziness,
drowsiness, coated tongue, foul breath, headache, pain in the stomach,
etc. Take one or two pills every night—one is usually enough—and
be certain that a cure will follow.
They are the best complexion pills. After you have taken them for a
few nights, your skin will assume a wholesome, healthful color, your
eye a brilliant lustre, and sallowness and pimples will disappear.
BRANDRETH’S PILLS NEVER injure—you are always in better health
after taking a dose—they are the safest medicine to give children and
women in delicate health. One pill is usually sufficient.
NO medicine is made with such infinite care as BRANDRETH'S PILLS
—-no medicine but BRANDxETH’S PILLS is kept for TWO YEARS before
they are boxed to be Sold.
Except in sudden and acute sickness, when the dose should be from
four to eight pills. the best results are obtained by taking one or two
pills every night for a week or two. They act on the liver and leave
that organ in a perfectly healthy state, and when your liver is right
your blood is pure, and you are well. Don’t bully your liver with
powerful medicine, but coax it with BRANDRETH’S PILLS.
BRANDRE'I‘H‘S PILLS are sold throughout the world, with and without
sugar coating. They never fail to do their work.

IIE FUTURE of a life insurance company can, and prop-
erly should, be judged by its success in the past. ,
No life insurance institution can be continuously suc.
cessful unless the management makes the earning quality, as
well as the safety of the investments, the first consideration
when selecting securities.
THE IETNA LIFE’S
Success in these particulars has been unparalleled. Not
only have the investments been of the best character, but
their IIIIGI‘GSI earning qualities have been a great factor in
producing the well-known success of the company.
As evidence of the good judgment exercised in purchas-
ing securities, and of the great care shown in selecting lives
upon which to grant insurance, the following exhibit gives
the results obtained by the responsible Stock Management of
the ZETNA LIFE .since 1850 in comparison with the results
