MISCELLANEOUS
A Talkative Witness.
' Now, madam," said the attorney
for the prosecution to a small, wiry,
thin-lipped witness, "please tell us in
as few words as possible all you know
about this case."
"I'll do that, sir," was the decided
reply, "and I'll do it in a mighty
short order, And I'll tell the truth,
the hull truth, and nothing but the
truth. Lying don't run in our fami
ly. If there's anything on top of
this created earth that I "
"Coufine yourself to the case,
please."
"I'll do that, sir, don't be a bit
skeered "bout Mandy Marier Perkins.
She s been on the witness stand be
fore, she has, and a hull raft of law
yers and jedge thrown in tried to— '
"Please state what you know
about the case of the State vs. John
Doe."
"To be sure I will. That's what
I'm here for. My land, didn't I
leave my reg'lar Monday wash over
till Tuesday and put off bread bakin'
a purpose to come and tell that very
thing. Of course I did. And if this
court thinks it can tangle Mamdy
Marier Perkins up on her evidence,
it's left for—"
"But this has nothing to do with
the case. Do you know John I)oe?''
"Me know old John Doe? Me?
Great Scott! Why, man alive, John
Doe's first wife's brother aDd my Bis
ter-in-law's half cousin used to be
sweet on each other, and—"
"Please confine yourself strictly to
the facts relating to this case."
"Facts? If it ain't facts I'm giving
you my name ain't Mandy Marier—"
"We know what your name is."
"Well, it's a name that the finger
of scorn can't be pointed at. My
fam'ly record is as Uraight and as
clear as—"
"We don't doubt it madam;
bu' —"
"I could prove it if you did doubt
it. Lyin' don't run in our fam'ly.
If I was once caught in an out and
out I think to the land I'd—"
She began at ten in the morning,
and at 12:30 she had run down suffi
cienlv to make manifest the informa
tion "that she had never seen John
Doe in all her life, and that all she
knew about the case had been told
her by her husband's sister's aunt's
half brother's wife's step-son's moth
er-in-law, who come of a family that
"run to lies."
The Paris Tower.
Paris is to have the greatest tower
in the world, after all. M. Eiffel's
tower, which the Government has
authorized him to raise on the Champ
de Mars, will dominate all Paris, and
surpass, in fact almost double, in
height the highest existing structure.
Liberty, to whom such homage is
paid for her grandeur and greatness,
is but a pigmy of the 6tatue world
compared with this gigantic monster.
Lord Nelson's monument, London, is
162 feet; "Liberty," New York, 220
feet; St. Paul's, London, 300 feet; the
Great Pyramid, 460 feet; St. Peter's,
of Rome, 501 feet; the Cologne Ca
thedral, 632 feet; the Washington
Monument, at present the highest in
world, 555 feet; and the Paris Tower
is 1,000 f .:t. In order to find out
what M. Eiffel had to say to the va
rious objections which have been
made to his tower, and to get bis
opinion on its utility, I called on him
tbo other day at his works at
Lenallois-Perret. To him bis great
projecticn is synonymous with the
success of the exhibition.
"What if it topple oyer. M. Eiffel?"
"There ia not the least danger of
that. In our construction of the tow
er we have calculated on the force of
the wind. We have calculated that
the tower will normally withstand a
wind pressure of 300 kilogrammes
per square meter, which amounts to a
total pressure of 2,250,000 kilogram
mes. We have made this calculation
on the most fayorable hypothesis pos
sible. We have reckoned the trellis
work as full walls, and made other
allowances. And as the strongest
tempests ever known in Paris have
never been beyond a pressure of 150
kilos per square meter, the tower is
perfectly secure. Should a wind
bearing a force of 300 kilos arise, lit
tle would be left standing in Paris but
the tower."
A Mathematical Puzzle.
A perplexing mathematical puzzle
is going the rounds of the press that
may serve to tax the ingenuity ot the
school boys, or even children of large
growth. It is thus stated: A freight
train one mile in length stopped at a
station with the caboose just opposite
the depot. The conductor gets orders
to move bis train on to the next sta
tion, which is just five miles distant.
He gave the engineer the signal to
move, which he did, while the con
ductor walked over the train to the
engine and got there just as the en
gine reached the station where he got
off. The question is bow far did he
walk, or how far did he ride, or did
be ride at all?
Hay Fever.
I have suffered greatly Irom peri
odical returns of hay fever. At the
suggestion of Covert & Cheever,
Druggists, I obtained Ely's Cream
Balm, and used a portion of it during
a severe attack. I can cheerfully tes

ued relief obtained by its use. I

which he was president—"Gintlemin,

—A boy in Brooktield, Conn , had
six turtles in a tub filled from a well.
He fed them daily, and soon they be
came used to the little lellow's call.
He kept a float on the surface of the
water, upon which he placed food.
At his call they would in turn crawl
upon the float and get a morsel of
food, and oftentimes take it from his
hand. He taught them to march
around the outside of the tub, and
each one took the same place every
time. They would also go around
the tub and carry a match in their
mouths. Unfortunately a mink visited
the tub and killed the turtles.
In Brief, And To The Point.
Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe
to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and
wonderful things in existence. It is
easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food, bad cookery, mental worry, late
hours, irregular habits, and rnauy
other things which ought not to be,
have made the American people a
nation of dyspeptics.
But Grean's August Flower has
done a wonderful work in reforming
this sad business and making the
American people so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals a«d be happy.
Remember :—No happiness with
out health. But Green's August
Flower brings health and happiness
to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist
for a bottle. Seventy-five cents.
—Get rid cf that tired feeling as
quick as possible. Take Hood's Sar

Drunkenness or the Liqour
Habit Positively Cured by ad
ministering Dr. Haines' Golden
Specifiic.
It can be given in a cap of coffee
or tea without the knowledge
of the person taking it; is
absolutely harmless and will effect a
permanent and speedy care,
whether the patient is a moderate
drinker or an alcoholic wreck.
Thousands of drunkards have been
made temperate men who have taken
the Golden Specific ia their coffee with
out their knowledge, and to-day be
lieve they quit drinking of their own
free-will. IT NEVER FAILS. The
system once impregnated with the
Specific it becomes an utter impossi
bility for the liquor appetite to exist.
