An old treasury department official
tells how the late Judge Gray decided
out.' of the earliest customs classifica
tion cases to come before the supreme
court of the United States. The article
under consideration was a preparation
of fish which had been assessed for
duty as a sauce. The inferior courts
had given conflicting opinions as to
whether it really was a sauce, and by
I the time the issue reached the dignified
supreme court the decisions either way
j were voluminous enough to confuse the
most clear headed jurist.
J ridge Gray examined the article, ac
cording to the Philadelphia Ledger, but
could not make up his mind. His col
league's were equally undecided. When
things came to a standstill it occurred
to Judge Gray that a housewife would
probably be better qualified to decide a
matter of this kind. He took a sample
of the article home to Mrs. Gray.
"Nonsense; that's no sauce: it's fish!"
she said, and the next day the supreme
court of the United States solemnly de
cided the article was not a sauce.

"My boy," said a man of the state
of Texas to his son, who was starting
out for a career In an eastern city—
"my boy, let me tell you something
which may be of help to you. You get
up there, and you may see a heap of
people wli> have got more money than
you have, a heap of people who have
got more brains than you have and
more success. Some of them may even
be better looking than you are. Don't
you worry about that, and don't you
be scared by anybody. Whenever you
meet a man who allows he's your su
perior you just look at him and say to
yourself, 'After all, you're just folks.'
You want to remember for yourself,
too, that you're Just folks. My boy,
after you have lived as long as I have
and have knocked around the world
you will come to see that that's all any
one of us is—Just folks."—Field and

gpraklnK of Grain.
In the United States when one speaks
of "corn," maize is always meant. In
England "corn" is applied to all cere
als, especially wheat. In Scotland
"corn" means oats. Germans use the
word In the same sense as the Eng
lish. Carlyle, being a Scotchman, in
writing of Frederick the Great allows
himself to refer frequently to Fred
erick's "meal carts," when, strictly
Bpeaking, he should have said "grain
carts." What the bread of Frederick's
soldiers was made of was wheat and
rye, not "corn" In the restricted Scotch
sense. In Scotland a "cornfield" is
only a field of oats. Jamleson remarks
that the term "corn" in northern Eu
rope is used to denote that species of
the grain most in use in any particular
region. Hence In Sweden and Iceland
the term denotes barley.

Don't pay 81.50 a gallon for Linseed
Oil (worth GO cents) which you do when
you buy other paints in a can with a
paint label on it.
8 & G make 14, therefore when you
want fourteen gallons of paint, buy only
eight of L. & M., and mix six gallons
pure Linseed Oil with it.and thus get
paint at leas than $1.20 per gallon.
Many houses are well painted with
four gallons of L. & M., and three gal

Inflammatory Rheumatißm Cured.
William Shaffer, a brakeman, of
Dennison, Ohio, was confined to his bed
for several weeks with inflammatory
rheumatism. "I used many remedies,"
he says."Finally I sent to McCaw's
drug store for a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm, at which time I was unable
to use hand or foot, and in one week's
time was able togo to work as happy as
a clam." For sale by L. Taggait.
The greatest success is to be able to

A Favorite Bemedy for Babies.
Its pleasant taste and prompt cures
have made Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
a favorite with the mothers of small child

colds and prevents any danger of pneu

not only cures croup, but when given as
soon as the croupy appears will
prevent the attack. For sale by L. Tag

years and could hardly sleep from pain in
his stomach. He says Thompson's Bar

Peculiarity About Insurance.
When insurance companies grant in
surance on life, they are particular to
have the person examined by a doctor to
ascertain if he is in sound health. They
are most particular about the analysis of
the urine for the diseases of the kidneys
•re the most fatal and so many people
have diseased kidneys without knowing
it. If there are any symptons they are
usually (even by doctors) attributed to
some other cause. Thompson's Barosma
is the safest remedy to take for it will do
good whether you have kidney trouble or
not. Thompson's Barosma gives rest to
the nerves. For sale by R. C. Dodson.
Eternal hustle is the price of success.
A Great Discovery.
Judging from the number cf perman
ent cures that it has made Thompson's
Barosma, Kidney and Liver cure is the
greatest discovery in medical science.
Thompson's Barosma has made remark
able cures in kidney, liver, bladder, stom
ach and blood diseases, also palpitation of
the heart and nervousness. It is purely
vegetable and perfectly harmless. Just
the remedy for young and old. Drug

Consternation is not conversion.
Proper Treatment For Pneumonia.
Pneumonia is too dangerous a disease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,
although he may have the proper remed
ies at hand. A physician should always
be called. It should be bore in mind,
however, that pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack of the grip,
and that by giving Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy the threatened attack of pneu
monia may be warded off. This remedy
is also used by physicians in the treat
ment of pneumonia with the best results
Dr. W. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala., who
is also a drusigist, says of it,"l have
been selling Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and prescribed it in ray pract ice
for the past six years. I use it in cases
of pneutnania and have always gotten the
best results." Sold by Jno. E. Smith,

her parents. Her mother concluded
that the child had stomach trouble, and
gave her half of one of Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets, which quiet
ed her stomach and she slept the whole
night through. Two boxes of these
Tablets have effected a permanent cure
and she ia now well and strong. For

Letter to R. C. Dodson.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sir: Shuffert Hardware Co-
Hickory, N. C, bought a car-load of
paint; after selling it a few months,
found-out it measured seven pints a
"gallon."
Returned it to the maker and credited
customers with what they had lost from
short measure.
What do you think of a short-measure
paint? Don't you think it half white
wash? Half the paints are part white
wash.
Go by the name; Devoe lead-and zinc.
No whiting or clay in that; full-measure
besides. A gallon Devoe is worth two
of whitewash paint.
Yours truly,

Do You Want Strength?
If you want to increase your strength |
you must add to and not take from the :
physical. In other words, the food that
you eat must be digested, assimilated and
appropiiated by the nerves, blood and
tissues before being expelled from the in
testines. Kodol Dyspepsi.i Cure adds to
the physical. It gives strength to and
builds up strength in the human system.
It is pleasant to the taste and palatable,
and the only combination of digestants
that will digest the food and enable the
system to appropriate all ofits health and
strength-giving qualities. Sold by R. C.
