FOR THE BLOOD
j-
The Best Spring Medicine
Just now everybody is thinking about
taking something for the blood.
A Spring medicine as we speak of
it. And it's a good thing to do, but you
want to get the proper medicine. If you
consult your physician he will tell you to
TaKe
GOOD LIVER
and that, btcause the liver has every
thing to do with the blood. . If the liver
is sluggish the system is clogged, the
blood becomes impure, and the whole
body surfers. Every medicine recom
mended for the blood is supposed to
work on the liver. Then get at once the
" King of liver medicines,"
Simmons liver
REGULATOR
It does its work well, and tones up the
whole system. It is " Better than Pills,"
and can be had in liquid or powder.

POOR BOB WHITE.
A Plea for the Shy Game Bird When
the
Weather Is Bad.
When snow covers the ground and
sleet envelops trees and shrubs many
birds of various kinds seek the farm
house and its vicinity. They seem to
know that in their extremity man is
their friend. Their confidence is not
misplaced; they are liberally fed by dif
ferent members of the household until
the emergency has passed and they are
again able to make their own living.
These birds come to man's abode for
protection as well as for food, and aftr
the cravings of hunger are appeased
they stay around the dwelling, feeling
that the predatory hawk, fox, owl and
the heartless, murderous gunner of this
season will not recklessly venture to
assail them. Frequently these birds
return season after season to the same
homesteads. By reason of their appeal
to mankind birds of this class seldom
die from the effects of hard winters,
says the Baltimore Sun.
That the great game bird, the part
ridge, excessively wild and ti-.nid, does
not, when privation comes, seek man's
homestead like the birds mentioned
above, though in extremes of weather
a covey of partridges may be seen
about the strawyards where cattle are
housed and fed. Their presence about
such places is proof of their sufferings,
for they only leave their accustomed
haunts and fastnesses when sorely
pressed for want of food. These birds
have been found dead in severe weath
er, poisoned from eating laurel to sat
isfy their hunger. Clothed in beauti
ful plumage of hues in accord with the
ground, they escape fairly well from
the hawk in ordinary times, but they
stand out in bold relief on the snow
and fall an easy prey to the tireless; in
satiate hawk, as well as the fox and
owl. It is against the law to cither
shoot or trap this noble bird at this
season, and farmers and others should
see that no marauding in this line is
done. In addition to nreservinp; this
gallinaceous bird the agriculturist
knows that the partridge is the farm
er's friend, and that he destroys myri
ads of injurious insects, thus protect
ing the grain crops and the fruit from
much injury. Everyone, whether resi
dent of the city or country, loves to
hear the call "Bob White," on bright
summer days through harvest time and
early in the fall, when the young ones
are nearly grown, and to watch
the male partridco perched on the
fence as ho gives out the note, It
is impossible to look at him then with
out feeling love and admiration stir the
heart. He is in trouble now. Let
everyone who can help him. Halt the
haunts of the putridges in your vicin
ity daily with corn and wheat. Use
your gun on the hawks and owls and
put your pack of hounds on the foxes.
A BRAVE GIRL.
Heroism of a Waitress In Bornlii(
Hotel.
It does not require either mature
years or an exalted position In life to
develop the qualities that make a
hero or heroine. One of the bravest
and nioht resolute deeds that we have
.cr icua ot wus perlornied only recent
ly by a girl of sixteen who wus wrving
as a dining-room girl in a hotel at Ilur
per, Knn., says Youth" Companion.
At four o'clock on the morning of the
lOthof November a ftru broke out at
this hotel. In its rooma alopt thirty
seven guests. A strong wind wan
blowing, nnd the fire spread rapidly.
In one of the rooma two dining-room
girls were aslei-p. One of them, whose
name Ik Maud Kohi-rmi-rhorn. woke hnlf-

cutting her flesh bmlly on the glaaa a

to a Jilac:i where she would 1ki Mtfe.
Then she saw that the flume were
r-nvelnping thn liou, and that th
giicHta hud not Immti alurim-d.
The task of doing this she took upon
hfraelf. I'.ri-akiiig through a f;itfned
lower window, uml again cutting hi-r-'lf

liot.-l. the hall of whli h wrre thick

The Hotel Sleuth Who Proteots
the Telephone Girl.
When Chappie Geta a Little Too Promis
cuous the Hawk-Eyed Nan Interferes
A Sample Case of the Both
ersome Dude.
A pale-faced young woman with deli
cate features and auburn hair sat along
side of the telephone closet in the reading-room
of an up-town hotel the other
day reading a book, says the New York
Sun.
"Will you please ring up 329 Spring
for me?" asked a young man who had
just come in from the lobby. t
The tone of his voice was familiar
and patronizing, and he looked down
at her with a very friendly smile. She,
however, did not smile in return, but
looked extremely bored. Without mak
ing any reply to his question, she went
into the closet and rang the telephone.
The young man stood just outside the
door and leaned against it.
"This is a lovely" he began, but
was interrupted by the girl's reaching
out her hand, apparently in a mechan
ical way, and pulling to the door. lie
got out of the way just in time, and
stood biting the ends of his mustache.
Presently she pushed open the door
again.
"329 is at the telephone," she said.
"Kindly ask if Mr. Joe Jones is
there," he said very sweetly.
She shut the door again and addressed
the person at the other end of the tele
phone. Presently she wheeled around
in her chair, opened the door, and said:
"They say they don't know any such
person."
There was a frown on her face, but it
not in any way disconcert the young
man.
"Oh, pshaw," he said, "I must have
made a mistake in the number. Never
mind; how much is it?"
"Fifteen cents."
He pulled out a roll of bills, which he
displayed ostentatiously, and then
thrust back into his pocket, n train.
From another pocket he then dre w out
the exact change, which he bunded to
her. At the same time he beamed on
her in a languishing manner, but, as
her face was averted, all this elfort to
impress her was lost. As soon os she
received the money shw resumed her
leat, recorded the transaction on a slip
Df paper, picked up her book and re
turned to her reading. The young man
did not leave, however, but tried to en
gage her in conversation.
"I am awfully Rorry to have put vou
to no much trouble needlessly," ho be
gan, "but "
At this moment he was interrunti'd
by a sharp-eyed, strongly built man
who had been wutching him for some
time from a corner of the room. lie
hud stepped ut unnoticed and sudden
ly run against the young man as if by
accident.
"llcg pardon," he said, as If In a
great hurry, "but I want 1041 Court

The girl' face brightened as she
Inrnneil tin nnd entered tlicclosct nirnin.
while the young man looked saviigHy
at the Intruder, and then walked oil
disgusted. Ah kooii as he bad gone the
stout nmn tapped on the window of
the closet and winked signillcuntly, nnd
the telephone girl culled into the truiih
initter: "Nevermind, central, it was only an
other one of those dude. He has gone
now, thank gisdnesH."
The stout nmn walked back to his
corner, and the girl resumed her read
ing. Kvery day similar aoene are en
acted, nltho'igli sometimes there I ile
lay before the reseller arrives, owing to
his being busy elsewhere.
"You Mi'," he Miid in exphmatioii of
one sm li occurrence, "there la a lot of
well-dressed fellow who come In lu re
and pnlrotii.e the bur more or less, who
would Ilk" to flirt with the girl, and it
wouldn't do to luive any rumpus nUiiit

When they get too fresh i give theiu
this sort of along and dam e. It always

Highest of all in Leavening Power.-Latest U. S. Gov't Report
In countries where snow is common
every winter there are ethics of snow
balling, just as well as of any other
sport or business. There the fun is
only indulged in between friends and
acquaintances who consent to liberties
taken, while to strike a stranger or an
unwilling person with a snowball is as
much an assault as would be striking
with a stone. Of course some allow
ance must be made here for the ex
traordinary excitement caused by so
rare an occurrence as a snowfall, but
even the maddest of the revelers ought
to understand that a ball of ice or one
mixed with mud, lumps of coal and
oyster shells is capable of inflicting a
serious wound upon the head and face,
and the deliberate use of such missiles
is more like an act of malice than sport.

Lieutenant's Uncomfortable
Evening In Society.
Society belles aro not alone in their
liking for personal adornment. Young
soldiers, and brave ones at that, are
sometimes as vain of their fine clothes
as any schoolgirl, says Y'outh's Com
panion. Oen. flu Barail, writing his
"Souvenirs," lingers with fond particu
larity over the splendid new uniform
he put on when he became a lieutenant.
"Five minutes after I received my pro
motion," he says, "the best tailor in Al
giers was taking my measure for my
officer's uniform."
Then he goes into full details about
the red spencer trimmed with black
braid, the blue cap, the sash of red
silk, from which dandled acorns of
gold, and especially the sky-blue panta
loons. "It would be hard to Imagine a
uniform more coquet," ho declares.
This gorgeous rig he was to wear for
the first time at n dinner given by the
governor general in honor of the men
newly promoted; and he could hardly
wait for the time to come. When ho
came to put the garments on, however,
he found himself literally in a strait.
For three years ho had been iroinrr
about In loose Arabian costume. His
new clothes were so dreadfully tight!
lie got into his jacket only with the
vigorous assistance of three of his com
panions, who had to unite all their
forces in order to button tho thing to
gether. lie entered the general's house with
his arms standing out "like huskt-t-handles,"
unci all in all felt as awk
wurd ns any mortal well could. He
neither utc nor drank, "It seemed to
me," he says, "that ut tho !!r.st mouth
ful of bruid or the first kwallow of wa
ter, everything would burst. And
when, aa it hupticned, tint governor
general looked In inv tlireetion, with
his big round eyes, like coflVe-eups, I
felt a foolish desire to hide myself un
der the table. Ah! for that evening,
the fashion made me suffer!"

It would be most interesting to have ar
explanation of this pebble bank frorr.
some of the authorities on geology, on
tho accepted hypotheses of glaciation.
It would indeed be worth listening to
to have it explained how this mass was
slowly shoved perhaps two thousand or
three thousand miles, ' dumped bodily
in Coitsville, without a trail of detritus
by which it could bo traced to its lair.
Tho surrounding region is singularly
free of this kind of material, and how
came so large a quantity of this rock so
rarely seen in strata, all smoothed and
polished off into theso myriads of peb
bles, to be resting here? Without a
doubt these little white policies are
eloquent with a marvelous history, both
as to origin and method of transporta
tion, but who is it that is equipped to
discern "the still Bmall voice" that
comes through tho interminable ages,
and to give us the interpretation?
THE FIRST CIGARS.
lhe
Havana Variety Was Smoked in
I'arls as l.onn Ago as 1813.
When were cigars first smoked? Ac
cording to a French authority who has
been making investigations in this sub
ject, the weed in this shape was not in
troduced into France till tho return of
the French army from Spain in 1823.
This fact is on the authority of llippo
lyte linger, the dramatic author, who
writes thus in his memoirs:
"Our return from Paris was by way
of Orleans. On tho route we met quite
frequently oliicers returning from
Spain. They had generally cigars in
their months a new habit, since be
come general. From this jioint of view
the campaign of 1S23 hud the good
financial result of establishing a new
branch of import trade."
Another document, however, carries
buck t lie use of the cigar to a slightly
earlier period. The "Hermit of the
Chassee d'Antin" (1813), going to see
his nephew, a 'young officer ut Paris,
finds him at his hotel in morni f cos
tume and smoking a lliivnnu cigar.
The taste for cigars seems at this time
t? have been sufficiently extended to
make them a common urtlcki in the
stock of every grocer who was cureful
to cuter to the wants of his customers,
t'lifortiiiuilely Apropos.
There lives In a certi'ln small town a
pisir minister wit h a large family, which
liis salary ihs-s not begin to cover liter
