Reader, did you ever take Simmons
Liver Regulator, the "King op
Liver Medicines?" Everybody needa
take a liver remedy. It is a slugg'sh or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that shou'.d be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
iiseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ilatnr and you'll get rid of these trou
bles, and give tone to the whole pys
,em. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is better than Pills. It
Iocs not. gripe, nor weaken, but great", y
ef rushes and sti-ongShena.

A bacteriologist has produced
an antidote for snake-bite poisoD
on the anti-toxin principle. He
calls his lymj.h culture "anti
venene," This is an important and
valuable discovery to many com
munities, particulary in India,
where several thousands of persons
die from snake-bite evpry year. It
is violating uo confidence, how
ever, to state that the American
fisherman will probably carry the
same old biand ( f auti-venene in
his flask, thouyh he may change

Mr. Rogers was thinking;. Kis
thoughts went back twenty years, and
he saw himself a young man doing a
prosperous business, and, although not
in partnership, still iutunately asso
ciated with one who had been his play
mate, neighbor and close friend for
thirty years. And then Mr. Rogers
saw the. financial trouble that had
come upon him, and he thought bitter
ly that, if the friend had played the
part of a friend, it might have been
averted.
lie saw the twenty years of estrange
ment; he felt again the bitterness of
that hour of failure.
Mr. Rogers rose from his chair, and,
going to his safo, drew from it three
notes for flvo thousand dollars each,
due on the following Monday.
"Twenty years is a long time to wait
for justice," said he to himself; "but
now, and without my lifting a linger,
these notes have come into my posses
sion, and I know, Robert French, that
it will be hard for you to pay them. I
knew justicu would be done at lust.'
And Mr. Rogers replaced the notes In
his safe and closing his ofliue went
home to cat Many a man will cry out
for justice when it is revenge be de
sires. On Momlny morning Mr. Rogers
went to the station to take the eight
o'clock train for lloston. lie hud just
taken his scat in the car when he heurd
his nm" Ti't"i. "i 1 r"v Me, Palmer,
bis neignoor, standing oy li is seat.
"Are you going to town? asked Mr.
Palmer.
."Yes," was the reply. "Anything I
can do fur you?"
"I wish you would take charge of
my little girl as far as M . Her
grandmother will meet her there. I
hove promised her this visit for a week,
and intended to take herdnwn myself,
but just ut the last minute I have re
ceived a dispatch that I must bo here
to meet some men who are coming out
on the next train."
"Why, of course I will," said Mr.
Rogers, heartily. "Where Is she?"
At these words a tiny figure clam
bered ou the seat, and a cheerful voice
announced; "Here I ia!"
"Thank you," said Mr. Palmer.
"ooil-!iy, Hetty; be a good girl and
pspa will come for you to-morrow."
"liood-hy, pnpu; give my love Ui the
bna-lumtuie, and all the weat of the
fura'ly," replied lU-tty.
People looked around and laughed at
Hetty's putting the lamb at the head
of the family. They saw a very little
girl under an Immerse hat, and with a
pair of big blue eyes and rusy cheeks.
Mr. Rogers put ber next to the win
dow, and began to talk with her.
"How old are you, Itty7" be asked.
"I'm half paat four; how old are
you?" promptly returned Itetty.
"Not quite a hundred," laughed Mr.
Rogers, "but pretty old. for all that."
"I that what made the fur alt come
off the top of your head?" she aked.
looking thoughtfully at bis bald bead,
for the beat had caused him to take off
Ills hat.
Mr. Rogers said he guessed so.
Hetty pointed out various ohjeeU of

'cause that's wicked; but last week
Wobbie bweaked his 'locipede, and the
next day all the boys were going to
have a wace, and when I said my
pwayers I told the Lord I was glad
Wobbie had bweaked his 'locipede, I
was, but when I wanted to go to sleep
I feeled bad here," and Hetty placed
a tiny hand on her chest, and drew a
long breath. "But by and by, after
much as a hour, I guess, I thinked how
naughty that was, and then I telled
the Lord I was sorwy Wobbie had
bweaked his 'locipede and I would lend
him mine part of the time; and then
I feeled good, and I was asleep in a
minute."
"And what about Robbie?" asked
Mr. Rogers.
"Well," replied the child, "I guess if
I keep on loving him, he won't be a
'innymunt' much longer."
"I puess not, either," said Mr.
Rogers, giving his hand to help her
down from the seat as the cars slack
ened speed at M , and stopped at
the station. He led the child from the
car, and gave her to her grandmother's
care.
"I hope she has nat troubled you,"
said the lady, looking fondly at the
child.
"On the contrary, madam, she has
done me a world of good," said he, sin
cerely, as he raised his lint and, bidding
Betty good-by , stepped back into the
car.
Mr. Rogers resumed his seat, and
looked out of the window, but he did
not see the tre es, nor the green fields,
nor the peaceful river, with its thou
sands of white water lilies like stars
In the midnight sky. i
Had he told the Lord that he was '
glad his "innymunt" hod broken his
velocipede, and could not join in tho ;
race for wealth and position? When
he came to put the question straight to
his soul, It certainly did look like it. I
It was of no use for him to say that
the notes were honestly due. He knew
that he could alTord to wait for the
money, and that if Robert French was
forced to pay them at once, he would
probably be ruined; and he heard the
sweet voice of the child saying: "Love
your 'innymunts,'" and ho said In his
heart, using the old familiar name of
his boyhood days: "Lord, I'm sorry
Rob has broken his velocipede; I'll lend
him mine until ho gets his mended." .
Had tho sun suddenly come out from
liehind a dark cloud? Mr. Rogers
thought so; but it had really been
shining Its brightest all the morning.
A boy cumu through the train with
a great bunch of water lilies, calling:
"Liliescentu piece six for fi."
"Here, 1mi'!'' called Mr. Rogers.
"Where did those come from?"
"White Pond Lily cove," said the
boy, eying Mr. Rogers with some jx-r-plexity.
He hud la'cn train boy for

"What'll you take for that bunch?"

promptly.

Mr. Rogers looked down at the flow

BIG PRICES FOR FURNITURE.
Auctioneer Talk of the Private Bat of
Klrh Men's effects.
A party of auctioneers en route from
Chicago to Buffalo were in the smoking
room of a Lake Shore sleeper the other
night telling stories. "Selling horses .
and farm stull by auction is all right,"
said one, "but for genuine fun give me
the private sale of a rich man's furni
ture. When Anthony Drexel died there
were a lot of things which had personal
reminiscences connected with them
which everyone wanted. It was finally
decided to hold a family auction and
sell them to the highest bidder. The
first thing I put up was a small clock,
worth, I suppose, about twenty dollars.
" 'I'll give five hundred dollars,' was
the first bkl. It come from a nephew.
" 'Make it one thousand dollars," in
terjected a younger son.
" 'Fifteen hundred dollars,' replied
the nephew.
"The nephew won and got the twenty
dollar clock for money with which he
could have bought the finest clock in
Philadelphia. I never knew what tho
history of the clock was, but it must
have had a peculiar one. Then I put
up a big arm-chair. It was the chair
Urcxel had sat in for over twenty years
and it had a valuable association for
each one of the family. A married
daughter and young Anthony Drexel
were the ones who wanted it the most,
and the bidding, which opened at one
thousand dollars, was spirited and
lively. I finally sold the chair to An
thony for six thousand five hundred
dollars. The day's soles brought in'
over twenty-five thousand dollars."
"I never bad anything as good as
that," said another auctioneer, "but I
sold tho Hiilds effects in the same way.
The chief contest was over one of those
old-fushloned tall clocks. Chllds' eld
est son finally bought it for eighteen
hundred and fifty dollars, and lt Is now
in the Lcdffi oj'.co in Philadelphia."
SEEKING ANCESTORS.
Librarians Wurrteil by Women Looking

"My life Is made miserable," said a
librarian, plaintively, "by people who
are unxious to become members of tha
SoiiNof the Revolution or the Daughter
of the devolution. Only about one-half
of them succeed; but it take a long
time to prove to them that they can't
succeed. The cruzc, started only a few
years ago, with the organisation of
these societies, and it is still on the In
crcaw.
"Most of the seekers of ancestors are
women. A greut muny of them, I be
