The home of B. B. Pierce on
North Fillmore street was totally
destroyed by fire Wednesday fore
uoon. The fire originated from a
defective flue. Only the clothes in
the backs of the family were saved,
and Mrs. Pierce and three little
children had barely time to escape
from the burniug building, which
was owned by J. R. Wei.uer. Mr.
Pierce is an industrious and hard
working man, and the loss is a se
vere blow to him. Neither the
dwelling or furniture were insured.
Mr. Weimer allowed his insurance
to elapse only a few days ago.

Oath of the Turkish Doetor.
Tho oath whhjli young doctors take
In Turkey when they coino before the

Is there anything In all this world
that is of more importance to you
than good digestion? Food must
be eaten to sustain life and must be
digested and converted into blood.
When digestion falls the whole
body suffers. Chamberlain's Tab
lets are a rational and reliable cure
for indigestion. They increase the
flow of bile, purify the blood,
strengthen Hie stomach, and tone
up the whole digestive apparatus to
a natural and healthy action. For

How tho Kev. Mr. Joliiisloii. n Hcot
tlsh minister and the author of nil
mcrous books, succeeded In getting
one of his works reviewed by Alex
under Kussel, the distinguished editor
of the rtcotsmnn, Is told by Hie writer
of "Famous Kdllors."
A member of .Mr. Johnston's emigre
cation was nn old and valued servant
In Mr. Itussel's family. When tho
preacher published UU new book ho
nBked this member to bring It under
tho notlco of her master, with tho re
quest to review It In the columns of
tho Scotsmntt. Glad to bo of service
to ber master, the good woman lost
no tlmo In mnklng her wish known to
the celebrated editor and next morn
ing placed "Tho Gospel itoll" beside
his breakfast cup.
When at breakfast Mr. Itnsscl took
up tho book and remarked, with a
merry twinkle In his eye, "Helen, this
Is nn nwful dry rollwhlch you hn,vc
given mo this morning."
"Perhaps It Is, Blr," tho servant
quickly replied, "but you can butter
It wool on both sides."
Next morning nn excellent review
opi a red.
Conkllng and Thurmnn.
Senator Itoscoo Conkllng was once
addressing tho senate In an Impassion
cd manner nnd seemed to direct his
remarks to Senator Thurmnn. At
length tho latter got Irritated.
"Does tho senator from New York,"
bo roared, "expect mo to answer liltn
over- tlmo ho turns to me?'
For a moment Mr. Conkllng hesitat
ed, and everybody expected n terrlllc
explosion. Then, with nn nlr of ex
qulstte courtesy, ho replied:
"When I speak of tho law I turn to
tho senntor from Ohio ns tho Mussul
man turns townrd Mecca. I turn to
him as I do to tho I'ngllsh common
law 11s tho world's most copious foun
tain of human Jurisprudence."
Tho usually decorous senato broke
Into a storm of applause, and the
Thurman eye moistened a little. Tha
two stntesmen wero tho best of
friends and greatly enjoyed each oth
er's society when "off duty."
A Wetter If Not a Detter Man.
A little man In the west of Kuglitud
rushed to the river Inst summer, swear
ing loudly that ho would drown him
self. When he had waded In to
tho depth of his waist his wife, who
hint followed him, selxed him by the
hair, nnd then, as 11 local editor de
scribed It, sbo led It I tn back till be
reached u place where the water was
about two feet deep, where sbo pulled
him over backward and soused him
under and pulled his bend up again.
'Drown yourself (down ho went),
leaving me to father the brats! (An
other plunge.) Get drunk (nnotbei
souse) nnd start for the river! (An
other dip.) (letter use tho water In
stead of rum! (Another dip nud shako
of tho head. 1 I'll 1'iirn ye to leave me
n wldowl" After aoxzllng him to her
heart's content she led him out a
wetter If not n better man and escort
ed lilin Into the house and closed the
door.
The Qordlan Knot.
Tho famous Gordlnn knot was made
of leather taken from some part of
tho harness belonging to tho chariot of
Gordlus, king of Phrygla. It seems
that this knot was no tied thnt the
ends of the leather thong wero not vis
ible, honco the difficulty In loosening
It. Many must have tried to untie It,
for Its fame as n "sticker" at last
reached tho great oracle, which ileclar
cd that the lucky experimenter should
bo rownrded by the kingship of Per
sla. Alexander, trying bis baud and
meeting with no butter success than
tho ot tiers, drew his sword and rut
Into the knot until ho found the ends
of It.
Right to the Point.
When tho lord chief Justlco visited
Ireland bo was often entertained by
a hospitable gentleman who bad an old
butler, who took tho privilege of speak
ing his mind freely. On 0110 occasion
tho claret did not quite meet the host's
approval, so bo called the undent but
ler nnd said:
"I told you you wero to put tho best
claret on the table, Is this tho best?"
"No, sorr, It Is not tho best claret,"
replied the old follow, "hut It's the
best yo'vo got." London Tit-Hits.
Knew He Wat Worshiped.
"In Paris Mr. Whistler and nn Cng
llsli nalnter got Into n very turbulent
argument about Velasquez at u studio
tea," said au artist. "Mr. Whistler at
0110 point In the argument praised him
self cxtrnvsguntly. Tho KuglUhmitii,
listening, sneered nnd said at tho end;
" 'It's a good thing wo can t see our
selves as others seo us.'
" 'Isn't It. thouub?' said Mr. Whistler.
'I know lu my case I should grow In
tolerably conceited.' "
Theology and the Thermometer.
A point of theology Is raised by Sli
Francis Younghusbaud lu "India nud
Tibet." "An Interesting detail," be
says, speaking of tho religion of the
uatlvcs, "Is that their hell Is not hot,
but cold. If It were hot tho inhabit
ants of frozen Tibet would ull Hock
there."

Have you planned to do away with the dirt, dust, trouble and
heat of the old stove, and put in a
MODERN LABOR SAVING GAS RANGE
to do its work.
Snrinp weather demands
and yourself of as much trouble. A Cabinet Gas Range makes the kitchr-n the
handiest, cleanest, easiest workshop that a woman ever had to do with.
The Housewife gets her largest meal in 40 minutes. She does it cheaply because
there arc two ovens, both heated by one flame.
A GAS WATER HEATER attached to a tank will give her hot water right
from the faucet for cooking, washing dishes and cleaning, at an insignificant es
pouse. SO GIVE THE OLD STOVE "ITS NOTICE" AND ORDER A CABINET
GAS RANGE AND WATER HEATER TODAY
The whole equipment costs less than you imagine. We sell the APPLIANCES
on small monthly payments and guarantee them.
