A K asbas paper ends a marriage notice : 
“ Tbe couple left for the East on the night 
train where they will reside." 
Mistress —“ Bridget, did you hear me call ? 
“Tis. mum,” said Bridget, *' but you tould me 
the other day never to answer ye back and I

Mamma—" Why, my dear Willie, whatin the 
world Is the matter with little Oscar’s head ?’’ 
Willie—" Well, we’re playin’ ‘William Tell,'

“ 'Pears to me your mill goes awful slow, 
said an Impatient farmer boy to a miller. " I 
could eat that meal faster’n you grind it.”

Lay in a Stock of Vigor. 
Bodily decay Is greatly hastened by causes 
scarcely perceptible in the beginning, but which 
prey upon and undermine the constitution propor¬ 
tionately to the degree of neglect with which they 
are disregarded. A diminution of vital energy, 
the proximate cause of which is a falling of di¬ 
gestive power. Is dangerously subversive of regu¬ 
larity to every functlou of the body. To lay In a 
stock of vigor la the only philosophic way to re¬ 
store health on a permanent, basis. 1 he Nation s 
favorite tonic, ilostetter’s Htotaacli Bitters, t« spe¬ 
cially adapted to the use of debilitated Invalids, 
whose stomachs fall In duly, or whose liver or 
bowels are Inactive. A steadily pursued course of 
this regulating tuvlgorant, protects those wise 
enough to adopt, It from the consequences sure to 
ensue from a disregard of the causes of falling 
strength The Bitters moreover, not only enriches 
the blood, but purifies It.
