Pellets come.
And it's a more

than yon think.
It keeps them al
ways fresh and re
liable, unlike the
ordinary pills in
cheap wooden or
pasteboard boxes.
They're put tip
in a better way,
and they act in a
better way, than
the huge, old
fashioned pills.
No griping, no

leaves you worse
off than before. In that way, they
cure permanently. Sick Headache,
Bilious Headache, Constipation, In
digestion, Bilious Attacks, and all
derangements of the liver, stomach,
and bowels are prevented, relieved,
and cured.
They're tiny, sugar-coated gran

concentrated vegetable extracts
the smallest in size, the easiest to
take, and cheapest pill you can buy,
for they're guaranteed to give satis

You pay only for the good you get.

lie CoulcJ Throw Some.
"Several years ao," remarked a citi
zen of New Haven. Conn., recently, "I
knew a man who lived on the outskirts
of my town -who could throw a stone
with more accuracy of aim than is dis
played by most sportsmen with a 'rifle.
The man was a perfect giant physical
ly. He was a rood deal of a hunter,
using stones as his only weapon to
bring down the game. lie had a large
leather pouch attached to one side of
his coat, in which ho always carried a
good supply of carefully selected mis
siles. With these he bagged every year
no small quantity of game, such as
quail, rabbits arid squirrels. He could
kill a bird on the wing or a rabbit at
full speed almost as easily as at rest.
One of his favorite methods for display
ing his skill was to set up a scythe
blade with the edge toward him at a
distance of about one hundred feet, and
by throwing potatoes against the edge
cut them in half. He could almost ex
actly halve two out of every three pota
toes he threw."
Quenched Their Ardor.
A fire engine was recently the means
of putting a sudden stop to a duel in
Germany. Two physicians quarreled
and arranged for a meeting with
pistols. The village chief magistrate
heard of the proposed duel. He in
formed the firemen, and together,
drawing a machine, they proceeded to
. the scene of the encounter. Just as
the seconds had stepped off the dis
stance a heavy stream of water struck
one of the physicians, and a moment
later the second doctor wc
drenched to the skin. The would-be
fighters, in their dripping clothes,
looked so ridiculous that they both
burst out laughing, shook hands and
returned to their homes, thanking the
ingenious mayor for his intervention.

n Deafness Cannot be Cured
By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion, of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that i9 by constitutional remedies.
Ieafness ia caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when itiB entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can betaken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which la nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for

THE HOUSE OF LORDS.
Personnel and Powers of Great Britain's
Unpopalur Legislative Branch.
The English house of lords (or peers)
consists of the whole peerage of Eng
land and of certain representatives of
the peerages of Scotland and Ireland;
but, according to the St. L.ouis Post
Dispatch, many of these last have also
English titles which give them seats in
the house. As, for instance, the duke of
Buccleuch. a Scotch peer, sits as earl
of Doncaster, and the duke of Leinster,
an Irish peer, as Viscount Leinster.
According to the latest official list, ex
clusive of twelve minors and one baron,
whose claim is not established, the
present house of lords is composed as
follows: Five princes of the blood, two
archbishops, twenty-one dukes, twenty-two
marquises, one hundred and
fifteen earls, twenty-five viscounts,
twenty-four bishops, -, three hun
dred and four barons, sixteen Scot
tish representative -peers elected for
each parliament, and twenty-eight
Irish representative peers elected for
life. In all, five hundred and sixty.
All peerages are now hereditary, but
until 1856 there were occasional crea
tions of life peerages. In that year,
however, it was decided that such peers
could not sit in the house, and since
then none have been made. Peerages
are lost by attainder for high ti'eason,
and an attainted peerage can only be
restored by act of parliament not by
the crown. The house of lords may
originate legislation of all kinds ex
cept money bills, which must come
from the house of commons. The for
mer has also a veto power upon the
legislatfbn of the latter, and can throw
out any bill from the lower house, no
matter how large a majority it has re
ceived there. It is this veto power
which, more than any and everything
else, makes the house of lords unpopu-.
lar with the great mass of voters.
STRANGE DISCOVERY IN AFRICA
Balzac's Dressing down in tho Wardrobe
of the King of Dahomey.
Unlooked-for things have been found
in unlikely places, says the Illustrated
London News, but there has pro"bably
been no discovery more remarkable
than that of Balzac's dressing gown in
the possession of the king of Dahomey.
Monarchs are rarely literary; and his
dusky majesty, one would think, was
the very last of them to have set much
value upon the personal relic of a nov
elist, however distinguished.. Never
theless,, the French found it in the
royal .apartment at Abomey. There
were some ingenious theories founded
upon this circumstance. One of the
amazons, it was thought, might have
been a novel reader, and had sent to
Paris to secure the interesting memen
to, and, on the affair coming to the
knowledge of her sovereign, had
hastened to say she had purchased it
for his own shoulders. For,, indeed, he
always wore it upon state occasions. It
was not a dressing gown, such as
literary persons in this country are
wont to wear (of second-class flannel
worn at the edges), but of purple vel
vet embroidered with gold. As a mat
ter of fact, it had been given to Balzac
by some of his aamirers and after his
death had bee bought by a dealer in
curiosities, who had placed it, with
other showy articles, on tho West
African market. It is sad to think how
a plain tale will "put down" that is,
destroy the materials of a fine to-.
mance.
STOPPED THE DUEL.
The Cool Dan Objected to Heine Kiddled
with Oun Ballet.
"Down in my neighborhood. once" upon
a time," said Congressman John Allen,
of Mississippi, recently, "there was bad
feeling between two lawyers. A chal
lenge was sent and duly acknowledged.
The hour was appointed and the two
men met in a secluded spot. One of
them was a great sufferer from St.
Vitus' dance, the other was cool and
collected. As they faced each other,
the afflicted man began to tremble
from head to foot, while his pistol de
scribed an arc with varying up and
down strokes. His opponent stood firm
as a rock, waiting for the signal to fire.
Before it Jame, however, he laid his pis
tol on the ground.walked into thewoods
and cut a limb of a tree, with a fork
in the end of it. This he brought back
and stuck in thf ground in front of his
antagonist. Then, turning to the sec
ond, he said: '1 must request you to
ask your principal to rest his pistol in
that fork.' 'What for?' asked his op
ponent's second. 'Well,' replied the
other, 'I have no objection to running
the risk of one shot, but I certainly do
aecline having one bullet make a hon
eycomb of me. If that man was to
shoot while his hand is shaking the
way it is now, he would fill me full of
holes ,at his first. shot.' This was too
much for the seconds, and, by mutual
agreement, a truce was patched up
and no shots were exchanged."
SLEEPLESS LARVAE..
Voracity of the Young; of Some of the
Vegetable Feeders.
Prof. Lintner. New York's state en
tomologist, is of the opinion that the
larvae stage of many species of in
sects is one of the sleepless activity,
the grub feeding incessantly from the
"moment of its birth." He says, that
it is" doubtful if some species ever sleep
or take a moment's rest. The vora
ciousness and rapid growth of these
creatures may be better understood by
making a statement of two facts: A
certain flesh-feeding larvae, (which
simply means the infant state of a
carrion - beetle whose scientific name
would be of no particular interest, says
the St. Louis Republic) will consume
in twenty-four hours two hundred
times his own weight a parallel to
which, in the human race, would be an
infant consuming one thousand five
hundred pounds of nutriment on the
first day of its existence! There are
vegetable feeders caterpillars which,
during their progress to maturity, in
crease in size ten thousand during the
first t thirty days of .their lives. . To
equal this remarkable growth a ma
ture man would weigh scarcely less
than fifty tons!
