Gussie —“ Lizzie, darling, why do you wear 
another woman's hair ?" Lizzie— 1 ' Gussie. dear, 
why do yon wear another oa—I mean, why do 
you wear calf ’s skin on your hands ? 
Mb. Ho, of the Chinese legation in England, 
is translating Shakspeare into Chinese. One 
passage from " Hamlet" reads : " Ho, that this 
too too muohee venison would turn into saltee 
water.” 
Little Harry asked his mother what “ blood 
relations ” meant. She explained that it signi¬ 
fied near relatives. After thinking a moment, 
he said: "Then, mother, you must be the 
bloodiest relation we’ve got ."—Boston Globe. 
An inveterate wag, seeing a heavy door nearly 
off its hinges, in which condition of neglect, it 
had been for some time, observed that when it 
had fallen and killed some one, it would pro¬ 
bably be hung.— Chicago Commercial Bulletin. 
“Ma,” said a little four-year old, "I saw 
something run across the kitchen floor this 
morning without any legs. What do you think 
it was?” The mother guessed various legless 
worms and things, and then gave it up; when 
the little fellow said : “ Why, ma, it was water!" 
An honest ignoramus, who had escaped a 
great peril by an aot of heroism, was muoh 
oomplimented for his bravery. One lady said : 
"I wish I could have seen your feat,” wheie- 
upon he blushed and stammered, and finally, 
pointing to hiB pedal extremities, said: " Well, 
there they be, mum.” 
A man may sneer at a woman all he will be¬ 
cause she cannot Bharpen a lead pencil, but she 
has the smile on him when he stands holding an 
unoccupied suspender botton in his hand, and 
wondering whether it will hurt less to pull the 
needle out of his t humb the same way it went in 
or push it on through. 
A GENTLEMAN took the following telegram to 
a telegraph office • "I announce, with grief, the 
death of Uncle James. Come qutckly to read 
will. I believe we are the heirs. John Black.” 
The clerk, having counted the words, said, 
"There are two words too many, sir.” “ All

Stomach Bitters are most effectually defended 
from disease. That supreme lnvlgorant soon 
overcomes that distressing feebleness consequent 
upon aliments which impoverish the blood and 
relax the muscles, v’tgor, appetite, sleep return 
to the wasted frame, and every physical faculty 
gains greater activity through its benign Influ¬ 
ence. Nor la this all, for the Bitters have a most 
genial and cheering effect upon the mind or the 
despondent Invalid, which Is the natural effect of 
the Increased bodily vitality which they produce. 
Nervous symptoms disappear In consequence of 
the use of this medicine, and the evil consequen¬ 
ces sure to result from a premature decay of the 
physical energies are averted. Dyspepsia, liver 
complaints, rheumatic ailments, urinary and uter¬ 
ine Irregularities, malarial diseases, and many 
other disordered conditions of the system, are 
remedied by the Hitlers.
