Mrs. Fenbee of Tennessee.
Tlie stomach is such an easy organ to
get out of order. One is troubled with
it in the form of indigestion, another
heartburn, flatulency, etc. Mrs. Fenbee
of Cumberland Furnace, Tenu., suffered
for seventeen years from sour stomach.
Naturally she tried “everything” and
she says nothing ever benefltted her un¬
til she took Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep¬
sin, and that onred her. It is absolutely
guaranteed to do what is claimed, and
if yon want to try it before buying, send
yonr address for a free sample bottle to
Pepsin Syrup Co., 119 Caldwell Bldg.,
Montioello, 111. It is sold by Spence
Drug Co. at 50c and $1.00 a bottle.
Mr. Joseph Murphy.
The number of peoplo who suffer
from stomach trouble is beyond telling.
Often, too, it is the strongest and most
robust who suffer in this w T ay. Joseph
Murphy, 1730 W. Market St., Indian¬
apolis, Ind., was so afflicted and for
years tried everything, but he was not
cured until lie took Dr. Caldwell’s
Syrup Pepsin, the great herb laxative
compound, which also cures constipa¬
tion, indigestion and all liver and bowel
troubles. It is absolutely guaranteed
to do what is claimed, and if you would
like to try it before buying, send yonr
address for a free sample bottle to Pep¬
sin Syrup Co., 119 Caldwell Bldg.,Mon
tieollo, 111. It. is sold by Spence Drug
Co. at 50o and $1.00 a bottle.
A Lecturer’s Amusing Experience.
I was giving n lecture with the aid
of a lantern, said Mr. Harry Furulss,
and I was showing some portraits of
Mr. Gladstone in my entertainment.
“The Humors of Parliament.” I was
telling my audience as I pointed to the
pictures on the screen that one mo¬
ment he looks like this and at another
he looks like that, when there was a
great burst of laughter.
I proceeded to speak about Glad¬
stone’s flashing eye and noble brow,
and by the time I mentioned some¬
thing about his aquiline nose my audi¬
ence seemed to be in hysterics.
Thinking that by some mischance
the wrong picture was being thrown
on the screen, I turned round and was
at first horrified to see a gigantic fly
apparently walking about on the nose
of the Grand Old Man.
It appeared that the fly had got into
the lantern, had been caught between
the lenses and was being magnified a
hundredfold on to the screen.—London

Hexamethylenetetramine.
The above is the name of a German
chemical, which is one of the many
valuable ingredients of Foley’s Kidney
Remedy. Hexamethylenetetramine is
recognized by medical text books and
authorities as auric acid solvent and
antiseptic for the urine. Take Foley’s
Kidney Remedy as soon as you notice
any irregularities aud avoid a serious
malady.
Spider's Web.
Efforts to utilize the spider’s web for
practical purposes were made as early
as 1710 In France.
Now is the Time.
To Get Your Liver in Good Condition.
Many a case of sickness could bo pre¬
vented by taking liver medicine in time.
Do not think you have td take calomel;
it Js too strong and dangerous, and
leaves the liver in an emaciated con
dition.
Dodson’s Liver-Tone has all the good
medicinal virtues of calomel, but none
of its bad properties. It stimulates ami
livens the liver, aud restores its natural
condition. Dodson’s Liver-Tone is a
liquid with a pleasant taste, causes no
restriction of habits or diet. Can be
taken at any time and does not cause
any unpleasantness or inconvenience.
Spence Drug Co. will refund the price
paid for Dodson’s Liver-Tone, if for
any reason you are not satisfied.
Song of the Ancient Spinning Reel.
The first reel that was invented was
the hand reel, the yarn being wound
into skeins by turning the wheel and
fastening the skeins after counting a
sufficient number of strands. The flax
was first woven Into thread or yarn
on the spinning wheel; then the bob¬
bins full of yarn were placed on the
hand reel and yarn wound oft them on
to the wheels into skeins. The strands
were carefully counted and the lieben
fastened on them to keep them togeth¬
er. The lieben was a thread running
across the skein9 to keep them in
place.
A later invention was the clock reel
with a face on which numbers were
printed, and it had two hands like a
clock. When the wheel was turned,
reeling off the strands from the bobbin,
the clock would tick when a certain
number of strands were wound on the
reel, and the housewife. Instead of
tediously counting the threads, as on
the earlier invented reel, would fasten
on the lieben.
In a quaint old ballad entitled “Mis¬
tress Polly at the Reel” occurs this re¬
frain:
He kissed Mistress Polly as the clock reel
ticked,
the kissing being done at the propi¬
tious moment when Mistress Polly
was busy fastening on the lieben.
JJTAfter exposure and when [you feel a
cold coming on, take Foley’s Honey and
Tar, the great throat and lung remedy.
It stops the cough, relieves the conges¬
tion, and expells the cold from yonr
system. Is mildly laxative. Refuse
substitutes. Spence Drag Oo.

Eating With the Knifa.
Use of the fork is comparatively
modern. The original fork was two
pronged, and its adoption was held to
betoken an unusual degree of elegance
and refinement “The taste for clean¬
liness has preserved the use of steel
forks with two prongs,” writes Lady
Newdigate. (She spoke to the closing
years of the eighteenth century.)
“With regard to little bits of meat
which cannot so well be taken hold of
with the two pronged forks, recourse
is had to the knife, which is broad and
round at the extremity." Peas at that
time were eaten with a knife.
A Discourager.
“I don’t believe in feeding tramps at
the door,” said Mrs. West. “You feed
them once and they are sure to come
back.”
“Well, I don’t know. I always give
them bread when they come to my
door, and I can’t say I ever knew a
tramp to come a second time.”
“Oh, well, Mrs, Yeast, you make
your own bread, do you not?”
That was all that was said, and yet
Mrs. Yeast went down the street like
a straw hat on a windy day.—Pear¬
son’s Weekly.
