Pretty Teacher.—"Now, Johnny Wells, can 
you tell me what is meant by a miracle?” 
Johnny.—"Yes, teacher. Mother says if you 
don’t marry the new parson ’twill be a mir¬ 
acle.” 
Picture of Felicity.— A negro with a 
large watermelon under his arm, a large piece 
of melon in his hand from which he was eat¬ 
ing, while he was feasting his eyes on the big 
circus show bill. 
"Pa, who was Shylock?” Paterfamilias 
(with a look of surprise and horror)—’‘Great 
goodness, boy! you attend church and Sunday 
school every week, and don’t know who Shy- 
lock was? Go and read your Bible, sir.” 
“What’s the matter?” called a mother, turn¬ 
ing to her little boy who “set up” a howl. 
“What are you crying about?” “I wantsome- 
thing ” “What do you want?” I have forgot 
what it is, an’ that’s what makes me cry.” 
A gentleman was giving a little baby boy 
some peanuts the other day. The good moth¬ 
er said, “Now, what are you going to say to 
the gentleman?” With childish simplicity the 
little fellow looked up in the gentleman’s face 
and replied, “More”.

g | ONE EXPERIENCE FROM MANY 
I have been sick awl miserable so long and had 
caused my husband so much trouble ami expense, 
no one seemed to know what ailed me, that I was 
completely disheartened and discouraged. In this 
frame of mind I got a bottle of Hop Ritters and used 
them unknown to my family. I *<xvn beitan to Im¬ 
prove amt gnim-d so fast, that my husband ami family 
thought It strange and unnatural. but when I told 
them what had helped me, th-y said, '■Hurrah for 
Hop Hitters', lorn? may they prosper, for they have 
made mother well and us lmppy. I he Mother.
