HIS POSTHUMOUS JOKE. fUEDFORD’S glACltDRAUGIlTj THE GREAT F a m i l y m e d i c i n e Thedford’s Black-Draught has saved doctors’ bills for more than sixty years. For the common fam ily ailments, such as constipation, indigestion, hard colds, bowel com plaints, chills and fever, bilious ness, headaches and other like complaints no other medicine is necessary. It invigorates and reg ulates the liver, assists digestion, stimulates action of the kidneys, purifies the blood, and purges the bowels of foul accumulations. It cures liver complaint, indigestion, « sour stomach, dizziness, chills, rheumatic pains, sideeche, back ache, kidnev troubles, constipation, diarrhoea, biliousness, piles, hard colds and headache. Everv drug gist has Thedford’s Black-lh-augnt in 25 cent packages and in mam moth size for $1.00. Never accept a substitute. Insist on having the original made by the Cluittanooga Medicine Company. I believe Thedford's Black-Draught Is tha best medicine on earth. It Is good for any and everything.

Philippon o i Ilomillv, France, was opened the other (lay, it was found that he had set aside n certain sum of money for n funeral banquet. According to the will, this sum had been de posited in a local savings bank and after the funeral it woultF be paid to the town ollieiuls, who alone were invited to uttend the banquet When they heard this good news, the officials instructed a notel pro prietor to have an excellent feast! ready on the evening of the day oil which the funeral was to be held, and as soon os the funeral was over they went to the savings bank in ■ body with the intention of drawing out the money.

His high ness died in Tiflie at the hands of the czar’s executioner, who deftly strangled him with the aid of a silk | en cord between the head and shoul ders, for when not making love in I the capital the prince followed the | trade of highwayman. He was sen tenced to death for holding up thir ty-seven coaches In the Oaucnsue nnd shooting a dozen or more of hia victims, all men. “To the ladies ho was lovely,” say the reports of his trial. Many women testified that he treated them to candy, tea and fruit after taking their valuables. “Ami he was as gallantly dressed as Era Iiiavolo in tne opera,” said an enthusiastic witness, “and shot dead | in my presence one of his hand who j had frightened iny children for fun.” C an sn d W ill. “Chicago’s motto is, ‘I w ill/ " re marked Skidmore. “So I have heard,” added Poin dexter. “And Maryland leads all the oth er states in the canning industry," Skidmore went on. “ Well, what’s the connection?” “Maryland’s motto should be, 1 can.’ ”—Detroit Free Press.
