only guaranteed remedy.
It's a legitimate medicine that
corrects and cures. If it doesn't

money back.
It must have been the medicine
for most women, or it couldn't be
sold on any such terms.

TRANSPLANTING HAIR.
A Queer Custom That I$ Followed by the
Chinese.
One of the many queer thing's in that
queer land China is the occupation
of hair transplanting'. Wong1 Ching
Foo tells about it in the St. Louis Post
Dispatch. Chinese superstition made the hair
planting1 business an imperative pro
fession. Chinese physiog-nomists say
the eyebrows and whiskers of a man
are just as essential in their relations
to his success in life as his other quali
fications. If the eyebrows are. thin or
his whiskers are sickly, his luck will
le thin and his health will be poor.
Therefore, in order to stop the train of
bad luck which nature has unfor
tunately ordained for him, he orders
his eyebrows changed or replanted by
a -hair planting professor.
This is done by first carefully pulling
out the rebellious or unlucky hairs in
the eyebrows. The next operation is
to select a spot of hair on the neck of
the patient or behind his ears that
would suit for a fine eyebrow, and re
duce them down to the right length. A
fine pair of sharp pinchers is picked up
with the left hand, and selecting a
suitable-sized hair, the operator jerks
it out by the root, and with the right
hand he quickly pierces a minute hole
in the skin of the bald eyebrow in a
slanting direction, and while the point
of the needle-like instrument is still on
the edge of the hole, the root of the
pullcd-up hair is carefully inserted.
But if bloo.l oozes out of it before the
hair is planted the hole will not be
used that day for fear of inflammation
and not sufficient nutriment for the
hair to take root. This operation is re
peated until every hair in the eye
brows is replanted or enlarged.
The patient usually experiences pain
in the eyebrows for about twenty-four
hours, after which he goes out and
shows himself to his friends.
"I know an old soldier who had
chronic diarrhoea ot long standing to
have been permanently cured by taking
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy," says Edward Shurn
pik, a prominent druggist of Minnea
polis, Minn. "I have sold the remedy
in this city for seven years and consider
it superior to any other medicine now
on the market for bowel complaint'."

In several of the shallow and slow
flowing streams of the south of Eng
land notably the upper waters of the
Lea, the Ver, and the Miraram, all
Hertfordshire streams the ''tailer" ij
vell known to the exasperated dryfiy
fisherman. "And what on earth is the
'tailer"?" the ang-ler not acquainted
with these and other similar waters
may inquire without shame.
The "tailer," says the Pall Mall Bud
pet, may be best described as a rather
gross feeder, destitute of ' the artistic
instinct and the culture which the dry
fly fisherman associates " with the
trout that can only be taken by an
exact imitation of natural fly. It is
called a "tailer" because, when its
head is p'unged into the woods in pur
suit of freshwater ' shrimp, it3 tail
breaks the surface of the stream and
warcP.in the air. At the commence
ment of the fishing season the "tail
ing", trout is usually very busy, and
very observable in several famous riv
ers. At this season of the year the
larger fish are. as a rule, in indifferent
or in absolutely bad condition; they
are exceedingly hungry after the ex
haustion of spawning operations, and
are consequently not in the humor to
waste time on an occasional small
olive dun, or some other insignificant
Cy. Water-shrimp is fat and appe
tizing, and in many streams exceed
ingly plentiful. It is not surprising,
therefore, that it forms the staple dish
of trout, which the pangs of hunger in
the early spring assail almost unceas
ingly. In early June the big trout
will eschew water-shrimp for May-fly,
and later on in the season, when they
are in fine condition, will feed with ber
fitting daintiness.
It is not much use, as a rule, fishing
up stream with a "dry" over a "tailer."
The fish is so engrossed in its pig-like
operations among the weeds that it
treats with contempt a solitary little
dun endeavoring to tickle its nose.
The best lure for a "tailer" is a big and
gaudy alder, fished down stream with
in a few inches of the fish, and worked
like a salmon fly. At such a lure a
"tailer" will come- sometimes with a
fierce dash, that brings the heart of
the angler right into his throat. The
writer had the pleasure of land ing a
five-pound trout, hooked by a friend
in this manner in a Hertfordshire
stream on an early spring evening. A
much heavier trout, "tailing" under
the bank in an awkward place, was
afterwards assailed, and pricked sev
eral times, but in vain.
A "tailor" is often difficult to scare,
and even when actually risen and
pricked will recommence feeding in a
few minutes', oblivious of danger. The
position of the fish, its head buried in
the weeos ana its tan waving like a
flag in the air, naturally renders it
easy to approach and diGeult to alarm
on such occasions. Moreover, a "tailer"
seems to riot in its rather nasty meal.
The water-shrimp . glut takes posses
sion of the big fish as completely as the
May-fly plut.
What creature the tailer" takes the
big alder, fished in the manner de
scribed, to be is v-sry uncertain. Some
few people assert that fish take a fly
under such conditions not from mo
tives of hunger so much as of anfer
mingled with curiosity. But practical
anglers and naturalists laugh at such
fantastic theories. No doubt the trout
takes the alder as the salmon takes the
silver doctor because it looks good to
eat. But what particular food it is
mistaken for remains a mystery.
HE GOT THE QUARTER.
A Ride That Proved Quite Expensive for
the Driver of the State.
Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, a well-known
scientist of the Quaker city, told a
Philadelphia Record man an amusing
6tory of a scene witnessed in New
York the other day while riding in a
Fifth avenue stage. "A lady gave the
driver a coin," said Mr. Dixon, "and
received change for twenty-five cents.
She informed the driver that she had
given him fifty cents, but the jehu
wouldn't have it that way, and the
woman had simply to lose twenty-five
cents. A moment or two later, how
ever, a well-dressed, highly respectable
looking male passenger, with a rather
pallid face and a physique by no means
athletic looking, tendered the lady a
quarter and said he had seen the whole
transaction and knew she was being
swindled. 'I'll get it back,' said he;
you take it.' After some persuasion
the woman was induced- to : take the
money, and shortly afterward she and
all the other passengers except myself
and the man who had produced the
cash left the 'bus. When we arrived
at the end of the line the stranger
walked up to the driver, and, in court
eous, but firm tones, said: 'I saw that
lady gave you a half doll ar. I give her
the quarter and I want you to give it
to me.'
"A volley of oaths was the only an
swer, which, however, was cut short by
a well-directed blow from the fist of
the passenger and the driver went
down. He got up with another shower
of profanity and made for his assail
ant, but promptly went down again,
the blow this time landing full on the
jaw. When the driver g-ot up the sec
ond time he gave up the quarter. But
the passenger wasn't through yet.
'I've split my gloves on your face,' he
he said, and I want two dollars and
fifty cents to buy a new pair.' Refusal
brought another punch, and again the
driver measured his length. lie didn't
want any more, but gracefully handed
his puncher the demanded two dollars
and fifty cents. I ascertained after
wards that the gallant passenger was
Billy Edwards, the' ex-prize lighter,
and the other drivers are, I under
stand, still chaffing their associate on
his encounter and its results."
3KD NLY
Hard for' the Neighbors.
During the present financial crisis it
is probable that a great deal of charity
has been as badly misdirected as was
that of . a charitably disposed young1
woman in Providence, who is noted for
her novel ways of helping the needy.
"I have such a pity for these poor
street musiciansP' she said one day. "I
pay one old Italian forty cents a week
regularly. He plays in the yard every
Thursday afternoon." "But that must
be hard. To be always on hand and
the noise must be tedious," said a
somewhat nervous friend. "Oh, no,"
was the complacent reply; "the maid
has to attend to- that; and as for the
music, I don't hear it, for Thursday is
my afternoon at the club."
Kenneth Bazemore Iiad the good for
tune to receive a small bottle of Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera, and Diarrhoea
Remedy , when three members of his
family were eick with dysentery. , This
one small bottle cured them all and he
had some left which he gave to Geo. W.
Baker, a prominent merchant of the
place, L wiston. N. C.,- and. it cured
him of the same complaint. When
troubled with dysentery, diarrhoea, colic
or cholera morbus, give this remedy a
trial and you will be more than pleased
with the result. The praise that natur
ally follows its introduction and upe has

Thomas A. Edison on one occasion
had on a table in his home an aquarium
in which were a number of gold fish.
Each fish had in some way been made
to swallow a small lamp connected
with a dynamo by- a hair-like wire
passing out of its mouth. 'When the
current was -turned on the fish pre
sented a strange appearance. The
light made their bodies transparent
and showed all the. minute details of
their anatomy. -
