After some trouble a long-headed, sardonic look­ ing steed was brought to the old Ly­ ceum Theater by an astute stablemai "I warn you, Sir 'Eenryr that 'e's a bit skittish," said the hostler. "Only la$t week when Mr. Tree, that's Beerbohm Tree, Sir T5e*ry, was astride of this *ere beast, 'e was very loose in 'is actions--I mean the 'orse, Sir Enery.' "Ha!" tragically exclaimed the actor. "The brute is then something of a dramatic critic!" The Counter Charge. Daniel J. Sully, on the day of his admission to the Chicago board of trade, lunched at the Chicago Club. During luncheon he illustrated aptly the value of the counter charge in ar­ gument "There waa a man," he said, "who should have been home one night for dinner, but he did not arrive till 3 o'clock in the morning. "He entered the house quietly, and he ascended the stairs on tiptoe. His watchful wife, however, heard him, and in a severe tone she called: "'Henry, is that you?'

"While a ooffee user my stomach troubled me for years," says a lady'of Columbus, O., "and I had to take medi­ cine all the time. I had what I thought was the best stomach medicine I could get, had to keep getting it filled all the time at 40 cents a bottle. I did not know what the cause of my trou­ ble was but Just dragged along from day to day, suffering and taking medi­ cine all the time. "About six months ago I quit tea and coffee and began drinking Postum and I have aot had my prescription ; filled since, which is a great surprise to me for it proves that coffee waa the cause of all my trouble although I nev­ er suspected it "When my friends ask me how I /eel since I have been taking Postum ,1 say, 'To tell the truth I don't feel ,at all only that I get hungry and eat everything I want and lots of It and It .sever hurts and I am happy and (•well and oontented all the time.'

This is like­ ly to be news to many physicians and certainly to the laity, who have thought that bleeding was a dead medical theory. The druggist who made the state­ ment had just sold something in a small box to a group of Italians whom he had charged twenty-five cents. Afterwards he explained that it waa a leech, and then he added that sales were Increasing in drug stores which find their patrons among the foreign- era of the large cities. They are raised mostly In Sweden, where they are cultivated in leech lakes. They are sold at four cents each at wholesale, but the retail drug­ gist adds heavily to the price. "We have to do it" said the druggist "They die if they get too warm or too cold, and you are out what yon paid for them. "The sale of them ia constantly in. creasing. It is due to the fact that the foreign population of the country is growing all the time. In this coun­ try the natives do not look upon bleed- 'ing as a cure for all manner of things, but in many foreign countries that is the first thing they think of when any­ thing is the matter with a person. If a doctor Isn't around to tap the suf­ ferer, off they go for one of these little .blood suckers. It's the same way when these folks come to this country. They thick of 'bleeding* whenever anything happens in the way of an accident, and if one of them gets bruised the first thing he wants ia a leech. When one of them gets into a squabble and comes out of it with a black eye, nothing but a leach will do him. "The demand for these ugly little things is confined almost entirely to the foreign born element in the city, and in a store situated as this one is we must keep a good supply of leeches always en hsnd. In the stores situated in the fashionable districta I doubt if you will be able to buy a leech. They may, however, keep them In some of these places just to have them in- c$se they are wanted, but it is sue to iaar they don't sell a dozen in a year. l £>o we? Yes, Indeed.

The late Dr. Otis Avery of "Hones* dale, Pa., said he was the first Ameri* can ever to receive a dentist'B certif­ icate. Dr. Avery was talking one afternoon to a reporter about the earlier, unen­ lightened days of Honesdale. "We had not then," he said, "as much religious feeling as we have now. I remember a revival service, very poorly attended, that was held during a certain winter. The revival­ ist, since the people would not come to him, went out to them, and on the street corners he would halt and ques­ tion them concerning their religious beliefs. " 'I haven't seen you at our revival,' he said to one very old, bent man. " 'What would I be doln' there?' the other answered. M 'Don't you ever pray?* said the re­ vivalist "The old man shook his head. • "'No,' he said, *1 carry a rabbit's foot'"--New York Tribune. A VENERABLE PASTOR " CURED BY PE-RU-NA. Pe-rn-na ia a Catarrhal Tonic Especially Adapted to tbe De­ clining Powers of Old Age. In old age the mucous membranes become thickened and partly lose their function. • This leads to partial loss of hear­ ing, smell and taste, as well as digest­ ive disturbances. Peruna corrects all this by Its ape» cific operation on all the mucous membranes of the body. One bottle will convince anyone. Once used and Peruna becomes a life-long stand-by with old and young. Nestled in Live Wires While astonished postoffice officials stood around ejaculating, "Well, well, well," in the switch box of the busy telephone exchange In the Brooklyn postoffice a litter of lively mice was discovered last evening. All around the little fellows were busy wires, there being altogether twenty-three connections in their quaint birthplace, but, barring a burned mark on the tail of one of the trpilets, they did not seem to have suffered any inconvenience, and they objected in a' ting-a-ling, 'phone-like squeak when persuaded to vacate. Meantime the fair operator had re­ treated to the stair, and women cus­ tomers at the stamp windows gath­ ered up their skirts and fled to the street Watchmen and shoeblacks became heroes, and by deadly blows saved the women from further fright How the mother mouse ever got Into the switch box is a mystery, for there is neither hole nor crack in it It is always kept locked. The nest had been arranged with unusual c$re, the outside being com­ posed of pieces of coarse paper, while the inside consisted of bits of the soft­ est and flimsiest papers in tbe post- office building. Had not the mother mouse become too envious the triplets might have thrived until big enough to earn their own living. With consternation the "hello girl" saw a large mouse near the telephone booth, apparently try­ ing to get in unobserved. Undaunted, three times the mouse tried to get into the booth. The busy operator's eye each time deterred it But finally Mrs. Mouse put the oper­ ator to flight A scoro of men coming to the rescue, wise Mrs. Mouse skipped upstairs. "That old mouse has been around here for a month," said an employe. "I know her by her chopped-off tail." ' Then a search was begun. The last place tried was the switch box, and it was opened mere as a joke. Operators began to collect having had trouble recently with their in struments, and one fair maid saw light in the holes in her lunch. It was left, however, to disperse the victorious army. "1 always had my suspicions of that box. I was just telling 'Bill' the other night that the darned thing was haunted. It must have been the old mouse communicating with the kids. --New York Herald. No Room For Russian Capt Charles H. Martin, of the 14th United States Infantry, relates the following: "On the return march from Pekln and while approaching Hohsiwoo the column of the 14th United States infantry one evening was overtaken by a Russian officer of high rank in his three-horse buck- board, driven by his orderly. At the time the rear battalion of the regi­ ment temporarily commanded by my­ self, was entering a defile, bordered on each side by low, swampy ground, the road just being wide enough to ac­ commodate the column. I suddenly heard a loud shout 'Watch out, cap­ tain! Watch out!' but before I could even turn my head I found my horse on his knees, with the Russian's horses on top of us. After extricating ourselves, I found that the Russian, seeing the narrow road before him and not proposing to be delayed by our column, had deliberately plunged into us, regardless of consequences. "The temporary check which he had received by my being in the way seomed to infuriate the officer and with violent gesticulations he ordered his orderly to drive on. Two enlisted men nearest us held his horses' heads. { This was too much. Taking the lines from his now helpless, bewildered driver, he forced his horses forward, but before he had completely gotten them away from the men holding them I had ordered four more men to as­ sist in stopping him and to keep'him where he was until the rear of the column had passed. In spite of such a 6how of force he persisted in vio­ lently urging his horses forward and was only stopped by boing knocked to the ground by the butt of a gun and having the horses unhitched from the conveyance. As he rose from the ground he started to draw his re­ volver, when instantly several rifles were drawn on him. "This semed to bring him to a realizing sense of his impotency, and, putting up his revolver, he ran for­ ward with tears in his eyes and called in French to the captain of the com­ pany then passing: 'I am an oticer-- an officer! Look at my frightful con­ dition and the humiliation which has been heaped upon me! Can you give me justice?' He received this consol­ ing answer: 'That's all right, old man; there's only room on ttis road for one of us and we got here first'" In the Spring. Lowndes, Mo., April 4th.--Mrs. H. C. Harty of this place, says: "For years I was in very bad health. Every spring I would get so low that I was unable to do my own work, seemed to be worse In the spring than any other time of the year. I was very weak and miserable and had much pain in my back and head, saw Dodd's Kidney Pills advertised last spring And began treatment of them and they have certainly done me more good than anything I have ever used. "I was all right last spring and felt better than I have for over ten years. I am fifty years of age and am strong­ er to-day than I have been for many years and I give Dodd's Kidney Pills credit for the wonderful Improve­ ment" The statement of Mrs. Harty is only one of a great many where Dodd's Kidney Pills have proven themselves to be the very best spring medicine. They are unsurpassed as a tonic and are the only medicine used in thou­ sands of families. Pound Fortune and Death. Edward M.

"You are very brave, dearest" he said to her, as they waited for the doc­ tor in the reception room. Oh," said she, «miling sweetly, "you see, I'm going to take chloro­ form or gas or something."

By the way, just before you came in I was administering the drug to a man, and he was honestly quite amusing. He rattled on about his early love affairs--gave himself away 1n great shape."

I was also trou­ bled with rheumatic pains in my limbs. I commenced taking Peruna and now my hearing is restored as good as It was prior to June, 1901. cannot speak too highly of Peruna, and now when 88 years old can say It has invigorated my whole system.
