Two Lives Saved.
Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, Ilf. was told by her doctors she
had Consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but [two bottles Dr.
King's New Discovery completely
cured her and she says it saved her
life. Mr. Thos. Eggers, 139 Florida
St., San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching Consump
tion, tried without result everything
else then bought one bottle of Dr.
King’s New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. He is naturally
thankful It is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the
woudeiful efficacy of this medicine in
Coughs and Colds. Free trial bottles

Why We Do Not Buy English Pictures.
Picture dealers in America have some
times been criticised because they have
done nothing to popularize the works of
contemporaneous British painters. But,
as I have pointed out more than once,
the high prices at which pictures are
held in England makes it impossible for
them to be imported with profit into the
United States, even if there were a de
mand for them, which there is not.
There are a few Americans with galler
ies who like to own an example or two
of such men as Burns-Jones, Watts,
Leighton, Millais, Alma-Tadema, Wal
ter Crane and Boughton, but that is
about all.
Modern French pictures, for 20 years
past at least, have been preferred in
America to all others, and, as a rule,
when bought discreetly, they have
greatly increased in value. Ou the other
hand, the reports of London auction
rooms for several years have shown a
constantly decreasing demand for work
of even some of the most popular of the
native artists, and as there is little or
no market for them outside of Great
Britain and the colonies they are often
sold at a great loss to the owners.—Art
Amateur.

JowetVff sarcasm*.
Professor Jowett’s comments on the
young men in Baliol often took the
form of crushing sarcasms. ‘ ‘The col
lege, Mr. X., thinks highly of you,”
he once said, “perhaps tod highly, but
not half so highly, 1 am sure, as you
think of yourself.” After a lengthy
survey of one’s person, as if one was
some rare animal, he has been known
to ask of the instructor, ‘‘Mr. A. is an
intelligent young man, is he not, Mr.
Y. ?”

T, J. Blackmore, of Haller & Blackmore

procured a bottle of “Mystic Cure.” It got
me out of the house in twenty-four hours.
I took to my bed with Rheumatism nine
months ago and the “Mystic Cure” is the
only medicine that did any good. I had
five of the best physicians in the city, but
received very little relie. from them. I
know that Mystic Cure to be what it is rep
resented and take pleasure n racomendi ng

A Flea For the Old Box Hedge.
And may I not enter here a plea for
the preservation of the box edgings of
our old garden borders? I know they
are almost obsolete—have been winter
killed and sunburnt —and are even in
sorry disrepute as harborers of unpleas
ant and unwelcome garden visitors.
For its beauty in winter alone the box
should still find a place in our gardens.
It grows to great size.—Alice Morse
