Matt Carpenter, the famous Wis consin senator, was pleading a case be fore the supreme court. Before he had got half through with his argument the Judges had made-up their minds that his case was without merit, and), more over, that he was unprepared. When he finished his argument and counsel for the other side got up to reply, the Judges whispered to each other, nodded and then the chief justice said, "I don't think it will be necessary to hear from you, sir." Carpenter's opponent was deaf, and he could only tell that tbe thief Justice was addieaaUia- hlia.--He- turned to Carpenter for aid. "What did the chief justice say, Matt?" he whispered. "He said he'd rather give yon the case than listen to you," Car penter bawled in his ear. The Wrong Department.

One year ago I did not dare take a mouthful of solid : food into my stomach. ; I lived on soup and cocoa on account of my intense suf fering apparently afflicted with an acute and incurable disease' of tbe stomach. . I took the treatment of Dr. Darrin threa months and have since been able to sit down to any kind of food and relish it to my satisfaction, never fearing any evil results. My afflictions were chronic dyspepsia, constipation, liv er and kidney complaints, pains in the heart and lungs and diseases peculiar to my sex. Now life is a pleasure, I am a stranger , to pain of any form. Have not had such health in twenty, years. I feel lift ed into a new world and - enjoy all thing on account, of feeling well again.
