The f.tvor- Ito bait of thea;: high-bred fltdiermen is a frog. Frogs are proeunfcil a day jn advance by boys In the vicinity where the bulling iii to be done, lh'ck docs not seern to caro very much when ho goes lishlug whether he catches any thing or not if lie has a number of Jolly companions with him. Soon after he arrived at his destination for fishing he set his pole, run out his liuo and threw his hook with a small live frog upon it. Tim vigorous statesman then took a posit* %a on the bank of the river and talked to his companions, smoked, and discussed future legislation. A number of times he observed his lino to pull Unit and his pole to sway a little, but never was there that hnm and that swish of the line, which indicate the presence of a bass. Beck’s companions told him that it was tho frog pulling at the lino, but he never pulled it up until the time had arrived for lilm to return to Washington. “ it will be a cold day when I go fish ing again,” said tho Senator, as he began to reel in his line, "I have not had a bito to-day, and it is tho best -point on tho ri ver for bass. The morn ing, too, is very favorable. Do ydu know why I haven't caught a fishy” inquired Senator Beck, “it la.because that confounded Jittlo green frog has. been sitting on that stone out there looking at mo all tlio time. I haven't said a word, but I have aeon that frog’s oyo on me constantly, and it is at that frog that I have thrown so many stones and made so many gestures and bel lowed so loudly at. Tho Senator con tinued to pull in his line. Ills compan ions', watched him intently. Finally lie wav heard to oxclnlm, “ Well, FIT bo —1” The line whipped up to the stone and tho frog was pulled off it. It was then discovered that tho frog had climbed out on the stone Immediately after it was thrown into the river, and had sat there with tho hook In Its mouth. —■— j Smuggling Swiss Watches. • A great increase of smuggling, to tho profit of tho Swiss watch manufac turers, lias resulted from Prince Bis marck’s increase of the duty on foreign watches, Tho stringent examination of travelers has not yet availed to check the smuggling. A watch is so small an article tlmt it is tasily con cealed, especially by woman. Their voluminous draperies, under the pres ent fashion, lend themselves readily to conti ubaiul enterprises, nud the «er- muiiB have not yet adopted tlio French custom of employing female custom olhcers, who are Teas gallant and more severe tlinn male ofllccrs in the exam ination of a traveling sister. The o'd proverb, "Opportunity makes the thief," ,1s richly Illustrated In the daily annals of protect)73 duties. Becen ly a £en- tlemnii named Blum, an lnliaU'ant of Colthar, In Klsiwn, wns st ixed by the Herman police of St. Ludwig, on tlio Swiss-Alsatian frontier, on the sus picion of being a smuggler of Swiss watches into the Herman'empire, Tho suspicion wua Justified In a delightful manner, for when Herr Bjum wns stripped, In spite of his protests bf his Immaculate character, lie war, round to have no fewer than 1100 watches con cealed about Ids artfully contrly.-d garments and iu one small hand bag. When tho search was over, H'.rr Blum was not morely convert e 1 out of a very fat Into a lean man—with a rapidity which Banting or Dr. 8ueoi never dreamed of—but he was compelled to pay a customs lino of 2,700 marks (flliS) for Ids extensive collection of foreign watches. _ A Jlit of Artvfop. Tho “ Woman’s Journal” gives this bit of information to its renders: There are many women who suppose that on the death of the husband they will bo legally entitled to oiie-tldrd of the property, and rest content. Or, If not content, they accept what they suppose will be their .Iog.nl rights, only to find that when there is no will their “third" means only the uso of one-third of tho real estate. That is, if the real estuto is worth three hundred dollars, tlio widow will have tho uso of oue hun dred dollars, which, at flvo per cent., would glvo her five dollars a year, In stead of the oue hundred dollars to use as she pleases. Witldu a short time we have hoard of thu surprise nml dis appointment of several widows who bad not asked their husbands to pro tect them by a will, because of this mistaken idea about their thirds. J ust hum should seo to this matter, and by a will should save a wife from tho double grief for tlio loss of a husband and of property, independence and comfort. Somn curious features of New Eng land life came to tno during my tr n. A woman where 1 stopped over night lamented her inability to procure female holn. She told me that although there are iVl,t>X) more women titan men in Massachusetts yon can srareoly get one to do housework. They have been fpoilad by factory work and dabbling iu literature, as they call it If they can't get factory work, as a great many of them can't gist just uow, they won't do any work, in many towns you can’t got a woman to do a day's washing at any price, . i_l.il l \ n U* IS H| Hicks's.

Tho Mount Lebanon (Now York) Shakers are a quiet com munity, secluded from the fret and worry of the outside world. They are widely known, how ever, for their strict honor and probity in business, i The Shakers believe that na ture has a remedy for every dis ease. A few have been found— the rest are . as yet unknown. Many were discovered by acci dent. Others came to light as the result of patient experiment and research. • Nervous Dyspepsia is a com paratively neio disease, growing out of the conditions of modem •life. . It is a joint affection of the digestive organs and of the nervous system. These two were formerly treated as sepa rate ailments, and it was left for tho clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal compli cation lies chiefly in the disord ered and depraved functions of digestion and nutrition. They reasoned thus:—“If we can in duce tho stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excre tive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste mat- fceiB which remain after thelife- g iving elements of the food ave been absorbed, we shall have, conquered Nervous Dys pepsia and Nervous Exhaust ion. And they were right Knowing the infallible power of Shaker Extract (Seigel’s Syrup) in less complicated though similar diseases, they resolved to test it full} in this. To leave no grouno for doubt they prescribed tin remedy iu hundreds of cases which had been pronounced in curable—with perfect success in every instance where tbeii directions as to living and die’, were scrupulously followed. Nervous Dyspeps.a and Ex haustion is a peculiarly Amefi- cap disease. To a greater, oi less extent .half the people o: this country suffer from it— both sexes and all a^es. In nc country in tho world are then so many insane asylums filler to overflowing, all resulting from this alarming disease. It; leading sjnnptoms are these: Frequent or continual head ache ; a dull pain at the base of tho bruin; Dad breath; nau seous. eructations; the rising of sour and pungent fluids to the throat; a sense of oppress ion and faintness at the pit of the stomach; flatulence; wake fulness and loss of sleep; dis- gust with food even when weak from the need of it; sticky or slimy matter on the teeth or in the, mouth, especially on ris ing in tho morning; furred and coated tonguoj diill eyes; cold hands and feet; constipation; dry or rough skin; inability to fix tho mind on any labor call ing for continuous attention; aud oppressive and sad fore bodings and fears. All this terrible * group Slmkor Extract {Seigers Syrup) removes by its pos itive, powerful, direct yet painless and gentle action upon the functious of digestion and assimilation. Those elements of the food that build up and strengthen the system are sent upon their mission, while all waste matters (the ashes of life’s fire) which uuremoved, poison and kill, ave expelled from the body through the lx>wels, kid neys and skiu. The weak and prostrated nerves 10*8 quieted, toned and fed by the jmrified blood. As the result, health, with its enjoyments, blessings and power, iwuins to the suf ferer who had, perhaps, aband oned all ho|*o of ever seeing another well day.
