/ A bilious dyspep-
tic condition of the
system not only makes life miserable but
it is sure to lead to something worse unless
promptly taken in hand and corrected. It
is foolish to attempt to dodge such troubles
by any mere temporary expedient. The
only sensible way is to get nd of them for
good and all by a thoroughly rational scien-
tific medicine like Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med-
ical Discovery.
It cures all disordered debilitated condi.
tions by its direct action upoa the liver and
digestive organs; it gives them power to
make fresh healthy blood free from bilious
impurities; it drives all disease-genns out
of the circulation; it creates solid muscular
flesh and constitutional power.
Lung and throat affections which arc
often simply the result of impaired nutri-
tion are reached and cured by this wonder-
ful “Discovery” in cases where cod liver
oil emulsions are useless because the “Dis-
covery” is readily assimilated by delicate
stomachs. It is far superior to malt ex-
tracts because its beneficial effects are
permanent.
“Dr. Pierce I am one of your most grateful
patients" writes Mrs. Anme M. Norman of
Equinunk Wayne Co. Pa. “I have taken
Golden Medica. Discovery’ also 1 Favorite Pre-
scription ' and ‘ Pellets ’ with wonderful results.
I am as many of my friends tell me like the
dead brought t life. The doctors said I had
consumption ard death was only a matter of
time. That was six years ago. I concluded to
tty your medicine. I continued until I had taken
nine bottles of ‘ Discovery ’ and several bottles
of ‘ Pellets.' I got well and have done a great
deal of hard work since."
When the liver and bowels don’t work
the body and brain won’t. Dr. Pierce’s
Pleasant Pellets are a sure safe speedy
and permanent cure for constipation anil
a torpid liver. One “Pellet” is a gentle
laxative and two a mild cathartic.

The Wreck of Greece.
Henry Norman of the London Chron-
icle who writes of “The Wreck of
Greece” in discussing the future of
that nation says: “If the king is strong
enough and the army supports him
the constitution can be changed in the
direction of substituting administra-
tion for oratory and work for intrigue.
If the political officers can be weeded
from the army a smaller but infinitely
more campact and effective force with
modern weapons can be formed strong
enough to enable Greece to take her
share in the fight for existence which
is surely coming upon the smaller na-
tions of the Balkan peninsula. By
the testimony of all the experienced
war correspondents who witnessed the
late war there is material in Greece
to form a fighting force equal to that
cf any army in Europe in proportion
to its size. Her soldiers often fought
heroically. Her artillery and en-
gineer officers need be no better than
they are. Her fleet might become the
most powerful navy of any little na-
tion in the world.” —Scribner's.
Roar Against Tiger.
Some English officers in India re-
cently got up a fight between a full-
grown tiger and a two-year-old boar.
A pit was made with sanded floor and
16-foot walls and two doors in the
walls served to introduce the animals.
When the tiger saw the boar its head
andtailhungdownlikea whipped dog’s
and it tried to get away. The natives
threw things at it until it growled
and then the boar charged furiously.
The tiger leaped like a cat over the
boar and repeated the act three times.
At the fourth charge the boar ripped
the tiger’s flank slightly and then the
great cat got angry. It turned on the
pig grabbed it by the nape of the neck
and shook it like a terrier does a rat.
This done the tiger dropped the boar
and walked away. The boar recover-
ing from its dizziness made another
trial got shaken up again and the offic-
ers then called off the fight and let the
tiger run back to its cage.—Golden
Days.
Knew Their Pasßcngerd.
The student of sociology will find a
good many of the old New England
ways still enough alive to travel on
rural trolleys. On one line in Poston’s
suburbs the conductors and motormen
know their passengers. The other day
a conductor excused his hurry in mak-
ing change by saying he had to “look
after Mrs. Blank 'cause she's lame.”
Having helped that lady to reach terra
firma the conductor resumed the col-
lection of fares beginning with a little
girl of whom he asked: "How’s father’s
cold to-day Annie?” Needless to say
that the conductors are “Johns” and
“Henrys” to many of the patrons. The
line is well operated for the old New
England democracy always knew how
to get there on schedule time.—Boston

Mushroom* nnd Racon.
When the mushrooms are trimmed
and cleaned cut each into two length-
wise put them into a saucepan with
a little spiced butter and cook them
ten minutes while you trim some thin
slices of streaky bacon. Take half a
mushroom hot from the saucepan and
wrap the bacon round. Roll and fasten
with a fine skewer drop each into boil-
ing fat fry until the bacon is done then
dish on thin well-made toast. Garnish
with parsley.— Housekeeper.

The Kmperor'a Playing Varda.
Emperor William's faithful subject*
are interested just now in an account
of bis playing cards. It appears that
the royal table does not admit the usual I
French designs. 11 is majesty’s packs
are printed in an Altenberg manufac-
tory and exhibit old German patterns.
The backs are devoted to a symbolical
exposition of the triple alliance. The
Prussian eagle the double eagle of Aus-
tria and the silver cross of the house of
Savoy appear on a red field surrounded
with ivy and surmounted by the im-
perial crown. Similar designs are in-
troduced at the corners and the “four
colors” are strewn over the card. The
picture cards are executed in corre-
sponding stvle. The king of diamonds
is said to have a family likeness with
Jhe great Kurfurst. The queen of
hearts appears as a simple gretchen
and the knave of diamonds as a knight
of St. John. History does not relate
whether the emperor is a whist player
or confines himself to the national game
of skat.—London Post.
Diamonds.
There are few researches more inter- -
esting than those which touch upon the
discovery or manufacture of diamonds.
An explorer in the mountains in Natal
came upon the crater of an extinct vol-
cano. "There was a very sizable lake at
the summit and an examination of the
shore and soundings taken brought up
sand which held small diamonds. There
is a good deal of interest manifested
as to whether an actual diamond mine
is discovered or whether these gems
were there by accident being lost or
thrown into the water. As the moun-
tains of this region are not supposed
to be diamond-bearing it is suggested
that volcanic action may have had some-
thing to do with the formation of these
precious stones. —N. Y. Ledger.
Girls Hurled Alive.
Further cases of living burial by
members of the fanatical religious sect
known as the Raskolniki have been dis-
covered in the Trans-Urai region. A
series of small mounds excited the curi-
osity of the authorities and an investi-
gation of them was ordered. When the
mounds were opened it was discovered
that they' contained corpses of persons
who had apparently been buried alive.
In some instances the mounds had been
provided with air passages which pre-
vented the suffocation of the victims
who had met a lingering death from
starvation. The commission of inquiry
found that a 15-year-old girl who had
consented to be buried had broken out
of her sepulcher under the pangs of
hunger. —N. Y. Sun.
. A Hasty Man.
Hicks—Melton is a pretty good sort of

Wicks —Yes in a way. But-then he

"Hasty?”
"Yes; he saved a boy from drowning

til he was jest sinking for the third
time but gl abbed for the youngster
before be had a chance to sink at all.
Really it’s disgusting is such incon-

Far-Famed Hama of Virginia.
The department of agriculture has re-
cently issued a report on the subject of
hams of Isle of Wight Surrey South-
ampton and Nansemond counties of Vir-
ginia. About 30000 pounds are the an-
nual output most of which is exported
to Europe. These hams are pronounced
equalifnot superior to the Westphalian.
They are made from what is called the
razor-back hog. During its youth this
animal is allowed to range the woods
throughout the summer where it ac-
quires the peculiar gamey flavor for
which the flesh is noted. In the au-
tumn when the corn crop is gathered
the hogs are driven into the fields in
which every other row is planted with
black-eyed peas. On these and the
small corn that remains they fatten
very rapidly. As a finishing process the
animals are allowed to eat the small po-
tatoes that are left after the crop is
harvested. The method of curing the
hams and bacon is peculiar to the lo-
cality. To secure the genuine it is nec-
essary for individual customers to give
their orders a year in advance. —Boston
Globe.
Tbe Great Baetard.
The great bustard (Otis tarda) t
bird still found in the southern prov-
inces of Russia is the heaviest Eu-
ropean fowl. In size it exceeds the Nor-
wegian blackcock. The old males at-
tain a weight of 35 pounds and where
food is plentiful specimens weighing
38 pounds and even 40 pounds have
been captured. These birds have dis-
appeared from western Europe where
once they were almost as numerous as
partridges and are seen only in small
flocks in the sandhills skirting tbe lower
valley of the Dneiper and here and there
along the north coast of the Caspian.
The hen lays eggs as big as ordinary
pears. A larger and heavier bird—the
cassowary—is incapable of flight but it
can kick with the strength of a mule
and uses the sharp tiny quills of its
wings as a cock uses his spurs.—N. Y.
Sun.
Sublime Faith.
An old darky having been thrown
from his cart by the recklessness of
an excited mule was overtaken by a
gentleman who had witnessed the dis-
aster and with whom the following
colloquy ensued:
“Was that your mule that dropped
you here so unceremoniously?”
“Ter be sho sah. He’s mer own pus-
sonal property sah.”
'Then why don’t you get up and
overtake him before he gets away?”
“Dere hain’ no needs er dat sah.
Yo’ see w’en dat muil git stahted dey
hain' miffin’ kin stop ’im an’s de smaht
folkses all sez de worl’ am roun’ dat
muil boun* ter fetch up yere agin if

“Wuff wuff wuff!"
This low murmuring sound broke
(he stillness of the noontime.
“Wuff wuff wuff!”
Again this sound met the keen ears
of the stranger. He beckoned tWte dar-
key in the garden.
“Uncle” he said “what is that
strange noise I hear? — there it goes
again. Have you got a dog in there?”
“Dawg? The old man leaned back
and roared with laughter. “Why dat’s
my dahter eatin’ corn frum de cob!”
