VERDICT OF GUILT!
:r
We begin to think that Theodore Tilton
is a crazy man. He says he cannot. remem-
ber datcn. that he could not, if asked, tell
the ages of his children. and although he
had tried it scores of times he never could
repent the Lord's Prayer correctly. This is
a rather singular statement for a man who
is swearing positively to things that happen. PATRICK DOU'GHEBTY HELD

A Wnono Cus'rox Conundrum—It is
quite generally the custom to take strung
liver stimulants for the cure of liver com-
plaint. and both the mineral and vegetable
kingdoms have been diligently searched to
procure the most drastic and poisonous pur-
gatives. in order to produce a powerful ef-
fect upon the liver. and arouse the leuging
and enfeobled organ. This system of treat—
ment is on the same principle as that of giv-
ing a weak and debilitated men large pore
tlona of brandy to enable him to do a certain
amount of work. When the stimulant la
wilhbcld. the organ like the system. gradu-
