between the

she fancies she can take out of herself in
daily cares ami toils what she does not
put Itack in the form of nourishment for
nerve and body. But she can't. Sooner or
lat«-r the woman •who tries it breaks down.
The warning signs of physical break
down are. among others, headache, weak
stomach, flatulence, pain in side or back,
difficult breathing, palpitation of the
heart. These are only some of the in
dications of a derangement of the stom
ach and organs of digestion and nutri
tion. The one sure remedy for this con
dition is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Piscoverv, which strengthens the stom

and invigorates the nerves.

IMPERTINENT SIMIANS.
An Experience In ilie Monkey Tem
ple n( Hen arcs.
On the occasion of our visit to the
monkey temple at Banares we had
provided ourselves with popcorn and
other goodies which we expected to of
fer their bolinesaes. Hut the monkeys
di<l not give us a chance to do that.
They snatched the dainties from our
hands, and when our supplies were ex
hausted they amused themselves by
mimicking us.
One of our party, who had a bad
cold, used his handkerchief with con- (
Biddable emphasis. Scarcely had he j
replaced his handkerchief iu his pock
et when a monkey si ized the protrud
ing end. pulled i?-out and gave an «x- j
cellent imitation of the act. Then, of j
course, some of u$ had kodaks, and
after we had taken several pictures
another personification of impudence
picked up a little block of wood which
lay upon the ground and with it took
several snapshots at us.
A third ill conducted simian (a vain
female, who deserted her infnut for
the purpose) grabbed from my shoul
ders a red chuddar scarf and ii a few
flying leaps carried it to a lofty mina
ret. There she put it on and evidently
"fancied herself" immensely. But she
was not allowed to retain her prize.
In aliont three minutes at least -10 mon
keys had bit a piece of my precious
chuddar.
Then our native guide informed me
that the monkeys were very fond of
scarfs and that tlic> captured a great
many on the stone "'ghats" near the
temple wlilie their owners were bath
ing in the river. Perhaps on the prin
ciple that "misery loves company" he
seemed to think his item of news
ought to console me; but. although the
•'monkeyshiui s" continued as long as
we stopped i:i the temple "compound,"
I no longer found them quite so lu
dicrous. —Chautauqua n.
CUTTLEFISH INK.
The Peculiar l.i'inlil Which Thin Cu
rloiiM Animal iijecli.
The cuttlefish are caught in great
numbers oft the Cornwall coast and
are used as a bait for the conger eel.
for which this part of the world is cel
ebrated. The cuttlefish possesses no
real mouth, but has a long, cylindrical
sucker with which it adheres firmly to
the bait. The method of capturing the
fish is as follows: A long line from
which are suspended from 200 to iJUO
hooks baited with portions of pilchards
(almost the only bait the cuttlefish will
take) is let down Into the sea and al
lowed to stop there for about half an
hour. It is then drawn up. and the
cuttlefish are found hanging by means
of their suckers to the bait.
The moment that they leave the wa
ters they eject with considerable force
a great quantity of deep, black, viscous
substance which is about the consisten
cy of treacle, and the stain made by it
upon the clothes of the fishermen is
permanent if it happens to fall upon
them.
1 had a conversation with one man
who lias several times received a full
charge in his face, and lie assured me
that beyond the smell, which is most
nauseous, lie felt no inconvenience at
all. no smarting or pain in liis eyes and
no bad after effects.
If any of the liquid gets upon the
nets, it rots them beyond repair tin
less it is washed off immediately. An
other curious fact is that this fluid
will not injure cloth in the slightest
degree beyond making a permanent
stain. One man told me that he had
used a jersey for several years which
hail been squirted all over at different
times by these cephalopods. but that
except for the cloth being stained it
was as good as ever.
When this "ink" is ejected under wa
ter, it hangs in a sort of cloud and does
not spread.—London Leader.

To Hubert Browning a man was a

people or was the servant of others.
On one occasion his son Barrett had
hired a room in a neighboring house
to exhibit his pictures, and in the tem
porary absence of the artist Mr.
Browning was doing the honors to a
roomful of fashionable friends. He
was standing near the door when au
unannounced visitor made her appear
ance. and of course he shook hands
with her, greeting her as he did the
other arrivals.
"Oh. I bog pardon!" she exclaimed.
"But, please, sir, I'm the cook. Mr.
Barrett asked me to come and see his
pictures."
"And I'm very glad to see you." re
turned Mr. Browning, with ready cour
tesy. "Take my arm and 1 will see

What U Iyd'Jt-i The liigli explosive
thus called from 'lie name of the small
Kentish town and gunnery center
where the experiments with it were
made is nothing less than picric acid
brought into a dense state by fusion.
Picric acid is a bright yellow sub
stance freely used in peaceful indus
tries for dyeing purposes. It is ob
tained by the action of nitric acid on
phenol or carbolic acid. It burns very
violently, and. owing to the tremen
dous blast produced by the explosion,
the destructive effect of a bursting
shell filled with it is some 11 times
greater than that of a shell tilled with
powder.
All lyddite shells are equipped with
percussion nose fuses only; hence their j
explosion takes place on impact in the :
following fashion: The percussion fuse ,
Ignites a picric powder exploder, which ;
in turn iguites the bursting charge of
lyddite, the detonation of the fuse and
of the two explosives inside the shell
being instantaneous. The picric pow
der exploder, we should add, is insert
ed in a recess left in the lyddite for
that purjiose. Lyddite shell is to some
extent less barbarous than shrapnel
exploded by powder, for, tliougti wide
spread, its death dealing effects are
due more to air concussion than to the
wounding effects of the living frag
ments. In other words, in the case of
a lyddite shell bursting in a group of
men, the greater number will be killed
not by pieces of the shell, but by the
blow of the suddenly compressed air.
One of Lnuib'» Prnnki.
A pretentious poet got his verses sub
mitted to Charles I-amb by a frieiul
just before the poet was to meet Lamb
at dinner. Lamb found the verses to
be feeble echoes of other poets, and
when the author arrived he was seen
to be as empty as his verses, 'liiis
awakened Lamb's spirit of mischie
vous waggery. At dinner he said in the
course of conversation:
"That reminds me of some verses 1
wrote when 1 was young," and then he
quoted a line or two which he recol
lected from the poet's book, to the hit
ter's amazement and indignation. Lamb
was diverted immensely, but kept per
fectly serious and quoted more lines in
connection with another remark, beg
ging the company to remember how
young he was when lie composed theui.
The author again looked daggers at
him.
Lamb eupyed ail by introducing the
first lines of "I'aradije Lost" i"Of
man's tirsl li.sobedieiice, ete.i as also
written by himself. which brought the
poet to his ; . i. ousting with rage, lie
