A Little Sarcastic.
* Tear? ago an old sailor, who lWc<

Staten Island, possessed, among the nu
U.u» pets be bad collected on ns voyage.
’ - rot , of which he was exceedingly fond
The parrot, however, had a nasty temper,
and would suffer n. one to approach it ex
W pt its master. Disliking to see the bird
owpri up, the old sailor went to work and
built a largo wire cage out doors. Ibe
building of it occasioned more or less re
mark among the cronies that called to
smoke a pipe with him, and as they dis
liked the bird, they took a huge delight in
their raillery. The old sailor laughed with
them and took it all in good part, until one
day an old weather beaten stdf a trifle
without, the inner circle of friendship,
made bold to offer a suggestion.
“If you want, to give the parrot more
freedom,” he said, “why don’t you anchor
bim to a chain so lie can fly around in-
Mend of building that expensive cage?’’
For a minute there was silence. Then
the old sailor spoke, and there was wrath
In his voice.
"Say. mister, I s’pose you don’t know
that bird’s strong, eh?”
"Well, what’s that got to do with it?”
"Oh, nothing, except that if I anchor
him with a chain he’d likely fly away with
the world.”
The implied sarcasm caused the mar.
with suggestions to bold bin ponce.—Har

Work by Artificial Light.
Many persons experience great fatigue
In working and reading by artificial light,
boiw attention has been given to this sub
ject, especially in view of rending and
study, and the type, pa pt r and illumina
tion most favorable to comfort and health.
Vibite light is recommended for <ll artifi
cial illumination. One should never read
ata lower degree of light than ordinary
daylight. Very low intensities cause eye
strain and weakness, which may result in
exceedingly severe and even dangerous
mental and physical conditions. It is now
an established faot that epilepsy Is some
times caused by eye strain. There are also
many other maladies that arc primarily
caused and greatly aggravated by bad
light while using the eyes. Some authori
ties recommend white paper. Others, not
ably experienced journalists, insist that
straw colored paper and black ink are less
tong to the eyes than white paper.—

HEALTH CATECHISM.
To be Committed to Memory by
All Dyspeptics Invalids, Con
sumotl vos.
What : b tlm cause of nine-lenthe
of all disease?
Imperfejt d : gestion of food.
Why does imperftct digestion
cause disease of other organs?
Because blood, nerves, muscles,
hone and flesh are derived from
'he food w e eat and diges*. If
digestion is perfect the bkod is
onre, neives and muscles strong,
flesh firm. If the digestion is poor,
the blood is supplied from half di
gb-ted, termenting food, irritating
•-very nerve ar.d organ. The re
sult is, sooner or later, organic
disease, because every organ being
poorly nourished the weakest gives
wav firstand we have liver trouble,
kidney complaints, heart di-ense
or consumption.
Is not dieting the usual and best
tretment to cure indigestion?
No, because the dyspeptic has
been starved long enough, what is
needed is abundant nourishment,
not the lack of it. The stomach
and blood demand nutriment, not
bran crackers.
What is the best method of cure?
—l’leantv of wholesome food well
digested.
But how can a weak stomach
digest plenty of wholesome fore?
By taking with the food after
each meal e rtain harmless rem
edies which are known to digest
food and thus nourish the blood
and r-st the weak stomach.
What are these harmless rem
edies?
The most valuable ar * vegetable
ferments, pure pepsin, Golden
Seal and fruit salts All of these
are now combined in the form of
pleasant tasting tablets sold by
druggists under the name of
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.
Arc these tablets superior to the
various liquid preparations so
called dyspepsia cures?
Most decidedly, because all
liquid medicines become stale
with age ard lose whatever good
qualities they may have had orig
inally, while the tablet retains its
properties indefinitely. Stuart's
Dysyepsia 'tablets can be carried
in the pocket, always at hand
ready for use when traveling or at
daily occupation. They cost bui
50cts. and should b* kept in every
family. They keep the digestion
perfect and save doctor’s bills by
warding off disease.
Are Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
adapted to all forms of dyspepsia?
Yes, because in all cases the
trouble results fr >m indigested
ferinutiiing tood. Stuart’s Dyspep
sia Tablets cause the food to be
digested before it has time to
ferment.
If you wish to know more about
them ask you* druggist for a
package and trv them,
