The only way in which happiness enn

The Real Danger
from heart di.-ease is not the possi
bility of a sudden death, for they are
comparatively few: but following in
the wake of this dread disease comes
a general breaking down of every
organ of the body. Circulation is
retarded; digestion La deranged; the
blood Is contaminated, the nerves
weakened and the brain clouded. If
your heart is affected begin at onee
to guard against these dangers.
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure, has rescued
thousands who were given up to die,
and it will help jou, too, if you try it.
"For several years I was troubled
with nervousness, sleepless, palpita
tion of the heart, short of breath,
smothering spells and pain in chest,
back, and arm. I mis so
very bad tuat I remained In my bed
the whole of one summer. Was
treated by three physicians, but de
rived no benefit, finally 1 saw a
paper advertising Dr. Miles' New

I began their use and was so greatly
benefited that I atn now doing my

When the bags were fixed, Waldo
took up his wooden post and began to

the little blue cotton handkerchief from
his neck. The stranger looked on in
silence. When it was done, the boy
held the stirrup for him to mount.
"What Is your name?" he inquired,
ungloving his right hand when he was
in the saddle.
The boy replied.
"Well. I trust we shall meet again
some day, sooner or later."
He shook hands with the ungloved
hand, then drew on the glove and

CURED BY LEOPARDS.

In "I.ui.. 1 ;i of the Guides" there is
an in teres t ;ng story, says the London
Chronicle, ui' the rescue by Lieutenant
Peyton of her majesty's Eighty-sev
enth of a young Patlian who had fallen
Into the Kabul river. The lad's father,
in his gratitude, came down from his
home in Independent Territory, and as
a thank offering presented Peyton with
two young leopard cubs. Peyton, be
ing an executive engmger and con
stantly on the move, ctitild make no
home for them and gave them to
Lumsden, who himself told me what
follows, and it seems to me worth pre
serving. leopards seldom have an
opportunity of assisting in a criminal
investigation. The animals were too
young to lie dangerous and were al
lowed their liberty.
One day Lumsden was holding his
court in l'usufzal, when in the middle
of a case there was an uproar, and the
two sides iu an affray case poured into
the court, and, ns always happens, each
side accused the other of being entire
ly in fault. One party, to improve its
case, brought a dying man on a native
bed. A blood stained sheet was remov
ed. showing a much belabored man,
who appeared to be at the last gasp.
Lumsden had the bed put down iu
court aud went on with the interrupted
case. Jut then the younj? leopards
sauntered .u, probably attracted by the
scent of I looil, and. moving gently
around the court, approached the bed
and began suiffiug at tlic wounded

A Little Story Incidental to r Very
Laudatile I^Fort.
Efforts Lave been made lately to in- I
troduce the works of as many Amer
ican authors, especially Chicago writ
ers, as possible to the public school
children. This is what is happening to
Stanley Waterloo's "Ab."
"Il'm! Some more of that supple
mentary literature''"sniffed Mrs. Smitli
ers as Ethyl Smith.'is came home from
the Hyde l'ark High school with a new
book under her arm.
"Ycssum," saiil Ethyl as she plump
ed down on the sofa and began to read,
eating six chocolate caramels to a page.
Ethyl wears eyeglasses aud has nerv
ous prest ation, brought on, so the
school principal says, by pernicious
precocity an'l ovcrstudy.
"This is a book that teaches you all
about the cave men in prehistoric times.
It's just awful good, because you can
get such a lof of instruction without
even knowing hardly that you're get
tins It." Ethyl volunteered after
awhile.
"Huh!" sniffed Mrs. Smithers, who
takes very little stock in the r ew ed
ucation-made easy-a lid-universal idea.
"Yessum. this author believes, you
know, tlint man came from a monkey."
"He does, eh?" queried Mamma
Smithers. with a glint in her eye. "Your
pa will like that, won't he?"
"Oh, ma, there's nothing personal
about It," explained Ethyl.
"Darwin, Is it?" Inquired Mrs. Smith
ers, taking hold of a corner of the book
cautiously.
"Nome; 'All, the Cave Dweller.' bj
Stanley Waterloo."
"Well, Darwin or Waterloo, he'll
meet his I look of Wellington when
your pa comes In. Things Is come to a
pretty pass when schoolteachers holds
up parents to ridicule, even when they
are kinder onery." Chicago Infer

BROUGHT BACK OLD TIMES.
A Tidbit That W:i« Not on the Bfi
til n rant Hill of Fare.
The force of childhood recollection*
nn«l the truth of the quotation, "A
. tOOCb of nature makt s the whole world
akin," were shown graphically by a
i little incident in a restaurant the oth I
■ er day. A quiet looking, middle aged j
man of prosperous appearance was I
eating his dinner when another well
dressed man took a seat opposite him.,
After giving his order in a bluff, genial ,
manner the newcomer took a sip of
water and faced around. Suddenly a
queer expression came over his face
as he watched attentively the actions
of his vis a vis. and apparently with
out realizing what he was doing he
blurted out iu a loud tone, "Well, well,
well!"
Every one at the table. Including the
quiet looking man, started, aud the
others, observing tlie direction of the
speaker's gaze, turned their eyes also
upon hiiu of the quiet appearance to
Bee what bad caused the exclamation.
The man who had come in first was
in the act of spreading sugar over a
slice of buttered bread, and when he
realized that all eyes were turned upon
him he blushed like oue detected in a
heinous crime and almost fell off his
chair. It took him a minute or two to
recover, and then lie said to the table
in general:
"I used to get bread and butter and
sugar for being good when I was a
child, and eating it is a habit which 1
like to indulge in even yet. 1 know it
isn't .tpon the restaurant bill of fare,
but I couldn't resist the temptation."
"I must beg your pardon for my rude
exclamation," replied the other man.
"My mother used to put bread and
butter and sugar in my lunchbox when
I went to school as an 8-year-old up in
the country town where I was raised,
and I haven't eaten any since my
childhood, and I guess I'll join you in
a piece now for the sake of old times."
And he did.—lJaugor Whig.
CASHING DRAFTS ABROAD.
F:IN>
American* M«oh Surprise.
"The continental banking methods
are a great surprise to Americans,"
said a resident of New Orleans who
has just returned from a trip abroad.
"When I was iu Paris last month. I
met a friend one day who had an
English draft for £IOO on one of the
largest banks in the city and wanted
to get the money. He had nobody to
Identify hitn. but said, half jokingly,
that he was going to try for it any
how. and we went to the place to
gether.
"We were shown up stairs to a large
reception room set aside especially for
customers, aud presently a messenger
came in and took the draft. About a
dozen otl.er people were also waiting
in the room, and after a delay of about
ten minutes a well dressed young gen
tleman came "to the door aud bawled
out in a loud voice, 'Mr. John Smith!'
My friend (call him John Smith for
short) got up and was handed a bun
dle of bauk notes. So questions were
asked.
"I was astonished, and in going out
I took occasion to ask the well dressed
young gentleman whether the bauk
wasn't taking desperate chances doing
business in that catch as catch can
fashion.' 'And why?* he Inquired, open
lug his eyes. I tried to explain, and
be shrugged his shoulders. 'We have
never had any losses,' he said."—New

Grentrat Knitters In the World.
All the women of Shetland knit.
They learn the art iu early childhood
and continue it all through their lives.
The wool used for their knitting is
grown on the Islands and is carded
and spun by the people themselves.
Machinery they have not except the
primitive spinning wheel. Many of
the most elaborate shawls have taken
mouths to make and some even years,
so that a very tine shawl may be worth
as much as $l5O or S2OO. Most of the
knitting is. however, of the more home
ly ami serviceable kind aud may be
bought-from the women themselves for
a very moderate price.
The manner in which the washing of
knit shawls is accomplished in Shet
land is a matter of interest to most
visitors. They are washed carefully
in soap lather, and then to prevent
their shrinking they are laced from
point to point of the scalloped border
in a large square wooden frame aud
placed outside the cottage to dry.—Chi
cago News.

"should Hartford be the center of in

Adds His Evidence 1
STORY IS THE SAME AS FROM
OTHER SOURCES.
Lots of Money Spent but no Returns
Have Been Received.
The people in Pennsylvania willingly
dd their evidence to that wliicli lias al
ready been given in favor of Morrow s
Kid-ne-oids, the best remedy tliat has
ever been sold in this state for backache,
kidney and urinary disorders, sleepless
ness and nervousness. Our druggists re
port wonderful cures and state that Kul
ne-oids are daily increasing in the opin
ion of our people. Kid-ne-oids act di
rectly upon the kidneys and nerves and
restore thetn to their natural condition.
Good kidnevs make good blood, ecod
blood makes strong nerves, Kid-ne-oids
make goo-! kidneys and strong nerves.
Mr. John Beiglitol, 123 Du Bois street,
])u Bois, Pa., says:—For years I was
troubled with kidney disorders, and (lur
ing this time 1 tried different kinds of kid
ney remedies, but neyer found anything
that gave me relief like Morrow's Kid
ne-oids. Before taking Kid-ne-oids I
suffered with a dull heavy pain in the
small of my back which would be fre
quented by'a sharp shooting pain just over
the kidney extending up the spine to
the shoulders, also urinary disturbances
of an annoying nature Since taking
Kid-ne-oids they have relieved me ot
these troubles and I am feeling better 111
every respect. I will continue to talce
Kid-ne-oids."
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills but
Yellow Tablets and sell at fifty cents a
box at all drufc stores and at Redick SL
Groliman's drug store.
