Its use insures safety to the lives of both Mother and Child, and she is found stronger after than before confinement^—in short, it “makes Childbirth natural and easy,” as so many have said. Don’t be persuaded to use anything but MOTHEnjRIEND “ My wife suffered more in ten min utes with either of her other two chil dren than she did altogether with her last, having previously used four bat tles of ‘Mother’s Friend.’ It is a blessing to any one expecting to be come a MOTHER,” says a customer. Hsnderson Dale, Carmi, Illinois. Taking the Census. Preparations are already being made for the taking of the next census two years hence and it is reported that President McKinley intends to select S. N. North of Boston to take charge of the work. It is to be hoped that it will not be a job of unnecessarily large di mensions, and above all, that it should be preserved from having a political taint and be guarded from serving special interests. There was a great deal in the last census that could have been ad vantageously omitted. Useless statistics are an incumbrance to the exhibit which a census should make and a large percentage of the figures ill the last census was worse than useless. In the pres ent state of the national finances this work should not be attended with unnecessary expense. The president will at least deserve credit for selecting an American and not an Englishman as director of the next census. The selection of Porter for that duty in 1890 was a most singular choice, to say the least.—Savannah Press. Of Druggists Rt {*1.00, or sent by express on receipt of price.

It must have often struck people, when reading of the old performances in the last century", how it was that the lighting was contrived. The power of oil lamps was limited enough. Theaters like Drury Lane and Covent Garden were of enormous size.* There were nc footlights, at least until about the mid dle of the last century, and they were the humble “floats, ” dim enough. Yet there was ample light to observe ex pression and play of features, so neces sary in interpreting the fine old come dies of character. Nowadays the stage is one blaze. It is literally bathed and suffused in light. There are no shad ows, and yet it might be said the amount of necessary light is no more than there used to be and is not nearly as satisfactory. How was it then? In the theaters of Garrick and earlier days the stage was really lit by four great chandeliers, which hung directly over the heads of the actors from the arch of the proscenium and just outside the curtain. When the play was over, these were lowered slowly, a signal for the audience to depart. Those chande liers furnished a goodly amount of light bn a circular zone immediately below them. The actors’ faces and figures were lit in the natural way, as the sun would light them, but the rest of the stage was comparatively dark or gloomy.—Gentleman’s Magazine. His Excalpation. A minister met a little boy Sunday afternoon with a string of fish, none of ys/hich was more than two inches in length. Don’t you know, ” said the minister, “that yon committed a sin in catching those little fish on the Sabbath day?” “ ’Tain’t my fault, ” replied the boy, “ ’cause the big ones wouldn’t bite.”--.
