BPABK8 AND SPLINTERS. 
One old hat from America makes a New Zeal¬ 
ander a whole suit of clothes. 
Too long courtships are not allwnss judicious ; 
the partys often tire out Bkoreing before the trot 
begins. 
An Aberdonian recently bought a horse by 
photograph, thus literally getting the carte be¬ 
fore the horse. 
Nature seldom makes a phool; she simply 
furnishes the raw materials, and lets the fellow 
finish the job to enit himself. 
In reply to the question, “ Will the coming 
man be bald ?" the Norristown Herald affirms 
that “ he generally is when he first comes.” 
Boots of the thirteenth century are occasion¬ 
ally dug up in London, With skeletons of cats of 
the same festive era. The relative positions of 
the boots and cats show that the ancients were 
not much better at aiming than we of to-day 
are .—Danbury Naxos. 
If you dream of a stuffed oyster-shell dancing 
in its ulster, to the tune of “ Hold the Fort,’’ 
while a club footed Indian looks on and chews 
gum, it is a sign that it is going to rain when 
your blonde cousin gets married. (If it is a bru¬ 
nette consiu, you have got to dream something 
else.) 
If you dream of a ring-tailed monkey chewing 
bar soap on the top of an obelisk, and scratching 
the small of his hack with his left hind foot, on 
which there is a blister of the eighth potential¬ 
ity, and of two years’ standing, it means that 
you will meet a cross-eyed girl the next time 
you go hunting for raccoons in a reservoir. 
Xl»e Laboratory of the .System. 
The stomach la the laboratory of the system, In 
which certain mysterious processes are constants 
ly going on. These result in the production of 
that wonderful vivifying agent, the blood, which, 
In a state of health, rushes laden with the ele¬ 
ments! of vitality to the remotest parts of the 
system. But when the stomach is seml-paral- 
yzed by dyspepsia, blood manufacture Is carried 
on imperfectly, the circulation grows thin and 
sluggish, and the system suffers In consequence. 
Moreover, indigestion reacts upon the liver and 
bowels, rendering the first sluggish and The latter 
constipated. The brain also suffers by sympathy, 
and sick headaches, sleeplessness and nervous 
symptoms are engendered, liuatoiuir’a stomach 
Bitters reforms t ills state of filings, gives perma¬ 
nent tone ami regularity to the stomach and its 
associate organs, the bowels and liver, and en¬ 
sures complete nourishment and Increased vigor 
or the system. It Is the most popular as well 
as the most efficient anti-dyspeptic and tonic In 
America.
