FEMININE criA'r.

 

The linen bicycle gown is not ‘alto-

gether a thing of beauty after Coming

in contact with a layer of graphite or
when bespattered with trolley grease;

1 Ladies should exercise car eavhen cross-
ing the car tracks and endeavor to

steei clear of the oily substance.
The crimsonsatin sunshade once so

‘ popular is now but rarely seen.

Canadentist ever'be made to ac-

i‘ ._ knowledge that it was his fault that a
' '7 | filling falls out?

The surest philOsophy of life il-
learned when one can look trouble
sguarely in the face. " ’

Ev en the least capricious inv alid has
a way of making attendants do more
running up and down stairs than even
a sudden outbreak of fire would neces-
sitate. '

It' 1s consider ed ver y bad luck to re-
move your wedding 1ing. but you can’t
convince a widow of this when she
takes off the first one to give place, to

' the second.

The early morning thief who steals
the bottle of cream but leaves the one
of milk is too discriminating to be im-
pelled to his petty crime by the pangs
of a long unsatisfied hunger. '

If Ten Eyck, the popula1 young row-
ing hero, were not chaperoned every
where by his papa he would be stolen
bodily by the scores of girls who pro-
nounce him just to lovely for anything.

The man whom a woman really cares
for is always the one to imagine that
he is the one who is being treated the
worst.

The young woman behind the counter
who takes more interest in the mani-
curing of her nails than the making of
a sale. is generally given sufficient leis-
ure by her employer to devote to the
most prolonged toilet operation.

Why is it that nine out of every ten
cases. where a man murders his wife
and endeavors later to end his own
miserable existence-that the sequel is
summed up in these words: “There are
chances of the murderer’s recovery! ”

It is not always well to jump to cor!
clusions regarding a woman’s coiifure.
Do not deem her hopelessly untidy un
til you are sure that she is not passing
through that annoying stage known to
the feminine initiated as “the day af-
ter shampooing. ”

 

HE FLOumsHETJT \TVINNING CARD.

And the Colored People Flock. to Him to
be Spliced.'

Judge Reuben S. Saffold, of Georgia .

has 11: rule a t1emendous 1eputation as
a marrying judge, and the colored peo-

ple "flock to him in droves,” says the

Jackson, 1115s.,"Clarion-Ledger, to have
the knot tied. His popularity is due
in part to the graceful flourishes used
in the marriage servic’e.‘ Here is the
final flourish in his amplified form of
the-service: “By the authority vested
in me as an officer of the State of
Georgia, which is sometimes called the
Empire State of the South, by the
fields of cotton that lie spread abroad
in snowy whiteness around us, by the
howl of the coon dog and the gourd
vine whose clinging tendrils will shade
the entrance to your humble dwelling
place, by the red and luscious heart" of
the watermelon, whose sweetness fills.
the heart with joy, .by heaven and
earth, in the presence of the. witnesses,
l pronounceyou man and wife.”

The Joke Went fn-to the'Recor'if.
“Now, your- honor-,7 argued the at-
torney in the court of Justice Brown
of Santa Rosa, “I move dismissal 01

' this Case on the ground that the cor

pus delicti has not been established.”
Judge Brown rubbed his chin in a
perplexed way, fixed his gaze on the
ceiling for a moment, and then clear-
ing his throat, said: “Of course it is
'an old principle of law that the pro-

'bator must correspond with the alli-

gator, and in this case I am of the be-
lief that the corpus is all right, but 1
don’t know about-the delicti.”

“Your Honor, I want that to go into

' the record,” demanded the opposing

counsel, “I want the record to .show
that your Honor said the. corpus is all
right, but you do not know about the
delicti. ”

Judge Brown realized that he had
blundered and sat staring at the attor
ney for a moment. Then, pulling him
self together, he said: ”All right, let
that go' into the record, but you fel-
lows know danged well Igwas only
joking when I said it, and that will go
into the record too.”——San Francisco
Post. ’

Told by a. Mountafii Piroaoh'er.

A preacher of. this section, since de
ceased, used to tell. the following: He
said he was in Letcher county preach-
ing on one occasion when'he stopped at
a farmhouse to get his dinner. While
eating, the lady‘ of the house inquired
his business, and he replied: “I am
hunting the lost sheep of Israel.”

She left the room, and in a few' min-
utes returned with her husband, when
she said: “This man is ‘hunting some
stray Sheep, and I’ll bet that old long
wool ram that’s been around here is

 

his’ 11. ” .1,

“No, sister, you don’t understand me
I 1am hunting sinners; those for whom

. Christ died.”

-“‘And is be dead?" she queried.

“Yes,” replied the man of God, aston ,

ished at her ignorance.

“And buried, too, I reckon?”

“Oh, yes, long ago.”
"‘There, now, old man, I told you
ye ‘11 die in ignorance for not takin’ a
a newspaper!”—Hazel G1ecn (Ky)
Herald.

“For what you do that?” asked
Bedouin guide, as he squatted besid1

“I make sew; my wife work for me.’

The Bedouin meant that a woman’:

that it was the American woman’s.hus
band who, freed by his wife’s lab01

‘ from heavier cares, should be enabled

to spend in needlework his elegani

health resort in lower Egypt much fa
voted by invalids who are unable t1

smallish village in an artificial oasis

and the telegraph office has little or no

business except that furnished by the
tourists. The operator, 3. tall, ,turbaneo
Arab, sits on the mastaba, beside the
door, and knits on a brown-and-white
striped stocking. He never gets more
than half way down the leg, for at

NO DOMESTIC ANIMALS IN JAPAN.

The People Passess Neither Cows or Sheep
and But ,Few Horses.

Japan is a land without the domes-
tic animals. It is this lack which
strikes the stranger so forcibly
looking upon Japanese landscapes,
There are no cows—the Japanese nev
There are
but a few horses, and these are im.
ported mainly for the use of the for
eigners. The freight cars in the city
streets are pulled and pushed by 0001
ies, and the pleasure carriages are
drawn by men. There are few dogs,
and these are neither used as watch
dogs, beasts of burden nor in hunting,
except by foreigners. There are no
sheep in Japan, and wool is not used
in clothing, silk and cotton being the
staples. There are no pigs—11011: is

The difference between these pills and all other medicines is
told in the following statement of facts:

1st. They have been' in aetive demand in the markets of the world 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. a?»

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. BRANL‘RETH' s PILLS are composed one-third of the best extract of Satsa-
parilla that can be made. It is highly concentrated and it makes of these
pills the best bloo‘d purifiers that you can get, one 25-cent box con-
taining more of the active blood-purifying principle of sarsaparilla
than a dollar' 5 worth of- any liquid preparation in the market.

8th. One or two, taken every night, will cure rheumatis'm' in almost every
instance. 1

9th. They are a p051tive 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 BRANDRETH'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.

BRANDREiH’ s PILLS are sold throughout the world, 111th and without

HE FUTURE of a life insurance company can; and prop-

erly should, be judged by its success in 'lhe past. _

No life Insurance institution can be continuously suc. '4

cessful unless the management makes the earning quality, as

well as the safety of the Investments, the first obnsideration
when selecting securities.

only have the investments been 0f the best character, but
their interest earning qualities have been a great factor in
producing the well- known success cf the company.

ing securities, and of the great care shown in selecting lives
upon which to grant insuiame. the following exhibit gives
the results obtained by the responsible Stock Management of A
