Darnluy, P.E.I., Aug. 14 (Special). r-.Jolm .J. Burns, a proiiiineiil mum- Jjer of the I.(.).l''.. here, wIio.ko cure of Clironic Indaminalion of the Loins and Kidneys caused a sensa- lidii some time ago, reports that ho Is still In splendid health. "Yes," says Mr. Horns, "my cure is entire- ly satisfactory. I have had no trou- ble since I u.sed Dodd's Kidney I'ills. rhcy drove away the disease from which 1 sulTered for eight years. "No, I'll never forget Dodd's Kid- ney I'ills. The doctor could not help uie. 1 got so bad I could scarcely walk, sit or sleep. 1 was about to give up entirely when an adver- tisement led mo to try Dodd's Kid- ney I'ills. Now I am in good health.

EFFKCTIVR IHONY. I, Like ridicule, irony is often more ctiective than argument, and may convoy suggestions and ideas in a torse and pithy manner, as when one 'says, "You can't always judge by appearances; the man who wears a diamond i>in may be really wealthy." A gentleman. It was once said, never inflicts pain. On which a wit remarks, ;"J1ils is hard on the den- tists." Not a bad story is told of an aged clergyman who mot a man loudly declaiming against foreign missions. "Why," asked the objector, "doesn't the Church look after the heathen at home?" "We do," said the clergy- man, quietly, and gave the man a tract. "So far as you saw," said coun- sel to a witness, "she was doing her ordinary household duty?" "I should say so â€" she was talk- ing," was the ironical reply. "Ho never huil but one genuine ca.'-e in his life," said a lawyer of a rival, "and that was when he jjrosocuted his studies." Homo lawyers have had curious ex- periences of ironical wills. TJierc is thu not unfamiliar cu.se of the French merchant who left a handsome legacy to a lady who had refusal to marry him twenty years before, in grati- tude for her kindness in not taking him at his word. There is a good deal of pofntoil satire in such ironical facetiae as the following: "Wo are reminded yi.u cun't buy a quart of sand and be sure that it is not half sugar." A resident in a suburban district was nskeil how his house had fared during a snowstorm. "Oh, badly," was the reply; "my cistern is the on- ly dry place in it." "Wot '11 I do with this burglnr alarm.

Life Insurance Companies will not insure a man sufTcring from heart trouble. The reason is obvious. This is a serious matter to the husband or father who is solicitous for the future of his dear ones. Of- ten the heart trouble is causi d by an unexpected thing and can bo cor reeled if taki'U in time and properly treated.

For four hours on a recent Sun- day afternoon and evening the Bir- mingham, Kngland, hospitals were fairly besieged. A constant stream of vehicles kept arriving and dis- charging sick children. The little ones came in cabs and tramcars, in perambulators and ambulances. Many of them were suffering from violent abdominal pains, and all were afflicted with alarming sickness. At first it was feared some now and deadly epidemic had broken out, but inquiries made proved that they were all patrons of an Italian ice- cream vendor on the Parade. In all 45 cases were attended by the doctors. In many instances the work of the medical men had been made light by the intelligence of the police, who had promptly adminis- tered emetics, without waiting for the doctor. Parents and friends of the sufferers became greatly excited, anticipating the worst consequences. There were some noisy scenes outside the hospi- tal, and then an indignant crowd went olf in search of the man who had sold the ice cream. He beat a hasty retreat, which was covered by the police. It was well that a good force of constables was on the scene, or the man would certainly have been handled roughly. The remainder of the ice c room has been seized by the police. It is be- ing kept in n frozen condition and was handed over to the analy.st. JCK CUKAM FOK HA HIES. For n time the condition of some of the children was exceedingly ciit- ical and but for the prompt measures taken might have had fatal conse- quences. All the sufferers were discharged from the hospital on Saturday night, though many remain under medical treatment at their homes. A striking feature of the incident is the fact that some of the little suderers were mites only two years old. At that age it might be thought, even the very best ice cream is liable to have an undesirable ef- fect. Apparently the Italian does not rely \ipon children for custom. One patient a<lmitted to the hospital was a man 4.") years of age, who hos had to emlure a lire of merciless chafl' as a result of his amiable weakne.ss for penny ices.

To thoroughly take the conceit out of a horse, there is no better way than to throw him. It certainly ro- o.uires pluck and determination to throw a horse single handed, but if done, your horse is virtually con- quered for good and all. To do this put a good strong halter on your horse, take a strap with a ring in it and buckle it round the horse's off foreleg below the fetlock joint; take a rope eight feet long and tie it to this straji; place a surcingle round the horse's body; take up your posi- tion on the right side of the horse, bring the rope over the horse's back from the off side; take hold of the rope, and pull his foot to his body; take a (irm hold of this foot, holding It in that X)osition, then take hold of the horse's halter with the left hand, pull his head to you, and press against his body with your elbow, using the words "Lie down." The majority of horses can be thrown In this way in less than a minute, while others. of course, might fight longer. As soon as tho animal has been thrown, take the rope that is underneath him, bring it under tho surcingle and pass it through the ring of tho halter, nnd back under tho surcingle again, and I thus you have the rope in position I to bring his head over his shovdder. Make him put his head on the ground, anil if he makes any at- tempt to get up, pull his head up I immediately, which will prevent him jfrom rising. This will give him thoroughly to understand that you are master. Once a hor.se realizes 'your power over him, he will do al- most anything a horse can do. Nothing looks ninro ugly than to flo« a person whono hands are covered over with warlH.

Various Kinds Which Are Very Hard to Obtain. Old and well-seasoned oak is hard to get and harder to work. There is no great quantity of old oak fur- niture in the market, and old pieces that would supjjly large enough lundier for important work are sel- dom found. New kiln-dried oak is uncertain, being liable to warp and rack . Panel letl articles can be nmde of such material with some safety, but large solid articles are likely to give a bad account of themselves at tho ond of a winter in a steam-heated house. llosewood also the best cabinet- makers distrust. This wood has a peculiar oily q\iality that makes It unsafe when glued. For this reason rosewood is usetl chielly as a \-eneer. Thin sheets lose much of their oil and take gbut satisfactorily. Native walnut is no longer a fav- orite with tho cabinetmakers. This wood was in effect exhausted a quar- ter of a century ago or more, and it is now as expensive as mahogany and by no means so beautiful. Chestnut is a good deal prized, not for furniture, but for wainscotting and for {loor.s. It is sometimes put up in the rough with good effect, and sometimes oili>d and poli.shed, when it is remarkably beautiful consider- ing the cost. (lidi cypress Is used with great ef- fect in like fashion, and when filled anri oiled it makes one of tho most beautiful wooils for inexpensive in- terior decoration. Cherry was the old s>ibstitut« for mahogany, and is Htill a favorite wood with the furniture makers. It is, however, not easily obtained in a properly seasoned condition, for pro- per seasoning maki-s it expensive. The fact is that with cherry, as with oak and mahogany, the season- ing is an important element of cost. The cabinetmaker who must sink his capital for two or three years in wood that is uinUrgoing the proce.is of seasoning linds it hard to com- pote with those who use kiln-dried material. Mahogany is tho favorite wood wi'li the best cabinetmakerji. Then- is a vast amount of seasoned ma- hogany to be had from ruinous old articles made in Ihe last century wh^n the rage for mahogany was well developi'd; and while the new mahogany Is less beautiful than the old, purchas(!rs of furniture seini to have learned thai it Is worth while to have the now wood well seasoned.

Native servants in India havo the generally desirable though sometimes inconvenient virtue of tho Chinese â€" doing exactly as they are told. The trouble is that they seldom use judgment.

One day a fiurco engagement was go- ing on, but thu servant mado his way through a storm of bullets, and appeared at tho comman<ler's side. "Sahib," said he, "your bath is ready." Even a better story comes from an unknown soldier, who was awakened, one morning, by feeling the servant of a brother ofHccr pulling at his foot. "Sahib," whispered the man, "sahib, whot am I to do? My mas- ter told mo to wake him at half past six, but he did not go to bed till seven." Dr. J. D.

TWO FATHERS. liishop Wilson of Calcutta, whose spixsches are often quoted, had the happy faculty of saving tho right thing at all times. On one occasion two young people who.so father were famous for their diverse and peculiar views on Hibli- cal subjects came to see the bishop. "Ah," said he as he greeted one, ".voiir father wrote a great work on tho Apocalypse. I congratulate you on being the daughter of such a man." Then, turning to his other guest, he said: "And your father forbore to write about tho .-Vpocalypse â€" a wise forbearance. Vou are to be conL\rnt- ulatcd on having so wise a father."
