Saline would not come a miss.

CARLYLE   AND   THE   CABBY.
How tlio latter r.nst the Trade ,of the
Great Philosopher.
Carlyle *was well known to London
"cabmen.- 3?bf years ho engaged a particular driver from the rank and refused
to have any other. This man, however,
lost his custom in a somewhat peculiar
manner. ' •.      ~
Some medical students got to know
of his preference for the driver, and,
getting hold of the driver one day, they
inquired if he knew who his fare was,
when he told them he did not.- The students informed him that he was one of
the most famous and eccentric writers
of the day, «n£, giving him a book, advised him tt"- appear to he reading it
whenever Carlyle approached the stand.
Cabby, without any suspicion, acted
on their advice, and when the old sage
nest came for a cab he seemed deeply
impressed in a very pretentious book.
"Hello! Wha's that you're readin?"
inquired the Ecclefechan philosopher.
"A most hout an hont, tiptop, splendid book about that 'ere French revolution," was cabby's gushing reply.
"Eh, what dao ye say? Let me see
it," said Carlyle, holding out his hasd.
"Oh, certainly, sir," said tho driver,
handing him a copy of his "History of
the French Revolution."
'l' Weel, my man," inquired the sage,"
apparently delighted, "are ye sure that
you're readin this work intelligently?"
"Perfectly sure," said the jehu confidently. Then, thinking.he ought to say
something in ■ .praise of the "book, he
added, "Why, sir, it's almost as good
as 'The Newgate Calendar!' "
The grim old Dhmfriesian gl-fred at
him, grunted out something, turned ab^1
ruptly around and engaged tho next
cab. From that day Carlyle never looked
at him, but stuck to the second man,
who happened to have had the honor«f
driving most of the distinguished men
of the century.—Pittsburg Dispatch.
Tlie Motherly XaiHlIndy.
A friend of mine changed his boarding place last week, going to one, of
those*houses that advertise home comforts and a motherly landlady^ which
generally means that she is a person
who will pry into one's private affairs
and read long letters left lying about.
This particular landlady happens to regard drinking and smoking as particular devices of the devil, so when my
friend began to praise -s new brand of
tobacco at the dinner table the" other
night she saw her chance and promptly
chipped into the conversation.
"Smoking makesmenutterly selfish,"
she said, as a starter, enunciating her
words as if she were sawing ice, into
symmetrical blocksf
My friend was dazed for a moment,
for ho bad not much experience with
people who denounce everything as
wrong which they do not personally
fancy, but he quickly recovored and answered: "Possibly so, but after all it's
a staud off, for absrinenco from smoking
seems to make people deucedly impolite.
Or possibly you indulge a little? So
many of the ladies enjoy their cigarettes
nowadays."
Then tho storm broke.—Boston Post.
**' Difl'erenccs.
"They say that? human nature is always the same," saitl tbe middle aged

STOOD TIE TEST
Applied by* Skillful Physicians
and Professors—Satisfactory
-     Proof "of Merit' in *
Dr.WHEELER'S NERVE VITALIZER
"Merit must be recognized; but the distinction must be proven beyond it, doubt. Physicians are very slow to prescribe a preparar
tion until the subject has been thoroughly
discussed in their journals and meetings,
tried and tested in their universities, clinics
and hospitals.. Even then only personal
observation of merit will convince: many ol
them- Dr. Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer'has
Successfully stood all the tests applied. Nervous prostration in advanced stages, epilepsy,
Spasms, St. Vitus dance, and other nerve
disorders which have opposed the most skillful treatment have been cured by Dr.
Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer. That is why Dr.
Gray prescribed it for Rev. Cranor, Dublin,
Ind. His expression of gratitude may interest you.
"It was through the kindness of Dr. J. H.
Gray that I began the use of Dr. Wheeler's
Nerve Vitalizer, which so effectually cured
my trouble. While living on the low lands
near Terre Haute, Intl., I contracted fever
and ague which left me with a nervous
headache**liat for ten years had persistently
resisted every form of treatment. "Last
March Dr. Gray gave me Dr. Wheeler's
Nerve Vitalizer; the morning after taking
the first dose I remarked to my wife that I
had the best night's rest X had had in ten
years. -Two and nne half bottles cured me
thoroughly., T consider it a remarkable medicine and would like tn let the world of sufferers know that it will cure them as it has
me."*

Blood
When a horse is poor* in flesh,
a new harness won't give him
strength. If a liouse is cold
new f arniture won't warm it.
If yoar strength is easily exhausted; work a burden;
-nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; if you are pale
and worn o6t, the trouble is
with the blood. It is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
more than a new harness will
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make" a
house warm. For poor blood
you want something that will
make rich blood.

A Laughing Disease.
From Austria corues a curious account
of a man siviforiug from a nervous disease tbat manifests itself in paroxysms
of laughter. -The patient, whose case
was described before the Psychiatric
and Neurological society of Vienna, was
30 years of age and had been subject for
three years to fits of laughter, which
occurred at first every two or three
months, gradually increasing in frequency to a dozen or more a day. The
attacks occurred especially between 9 in
the evening and 6:80 in the morning,
and in greatest frequency between 5
and 6:30. Some occurred also during
the day, however the patient happened
to -be occupied. In the intervals between
the attacks and immediately before and
afterward the raan was perfectly well.
The attacks set in wiw| a tickling sensation arising from tire toes of the left
foot, and the patient would fall to the
ground unless he conld reach some
place to lie down. When this feeling
reached the level of the? left nipple, the
patient lost consciousness for a few seconds. Often the patient lay upon his
face. The month and eyes were closed
spasmodically, the eyeballs turned upward, the pupils were dilated and unresponsive to light. At tho height of the
attack the patient at first smiled, and
then laughed alond without other sign
of merriment. The entire attack occupied about two minutes. On two occasions there was protracted loss of consciousness.—Popular Science News.
George Du Maurier's DouT>le.
Mr. Du Maurier had a double, and
hia double was, as many people are
aware, Mr. Alma Tadema. So remarkable was the resemblance that even
their most intimate friends frequently
mistook them.
Tlio Grecian Portrait.
The Grecian portrait seems the perfection of the human type to us, and
artists copy it, although it is.actually
rare,, In it the line of the nose is more
or less perfectly the prolongation of the
line of the forehead. The hollow at the
root of the nose is almost effaced, and
the jirominence of the nose is softened.
Tho absolute Grecian profile would
"therefore be represented, in a drawing
by a single continuous line for the forehead and nose. Yet another condition
is ossential for obtaining the fine Grecian profile. Tho forehead should not
be receding. This marks the distinction
between the Grecian and the Egyptian
profile.—Popular Science Monthly.
