The London Lancet publishes the analysis made of two puddings, of which one was found to have a "nutrient value" of 68 per cent and the other of 59. It appears that, although most agree­ able as an article of food, plum pud­ ding is not quite so concentrated a form of diet as has been supposed, and conjectures that it yields as much sus­ tenance us beefsteak are certainly not 8upi>orted by its chemical composi­ tion. The amount of nitrogenous mat­ ter Is only uKififcrute, and it must be re­ membered that Hn calculating the nu­ trient YfrtiQamJ/' value all the nitrogen has been assunied to be albuminoid. Trobably the true albuminoids and consequently the food value are slight­ ly lower than would appear from the results; also the percentage of water is rather large, and the quantities of the remaining components are propor­ tionately lessened. To Whom' II itl»y Ciiiirern. This is to notify the public that on April 3d. 19<>8, W. J.

When the late Lord Lyons was Brit­ ish ambassador at Paris he received a gift of two (,'DIUH. Embassies are not exactly the place to keep such birds, and he gave them to the Duke of Nor­ folk, who then had a large aviary at Arundel castle. Tl»e duke in his turn named the pair,, Lord and Lady Lyons. Like all amateur bird fanciers, he was eager to raise a brood of little emus, but the birds showtni no disposition to propagate their species. The duke finally grew weary of watching them and left it to the keepers to bring him immediate word of any signs of a family. A month or two Ipter when the household was at lunch with sev­ eral guests one of the keepers insisted upon access to the duke. Red, breath­ less and stammering, he burst into the dining room with "Your grace, your grace, Lord and Lady Lyons 'aye laid ahegg!" HI* Lant H»p« Uttttlised. 0 [From the Sentinel. Gebo, Mont.] In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper w<w among the many seekers after for tnne who made the big race one fine day in April. Daring his traveling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim, he encountered much bad water, which, together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case became so bad that he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one. small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and with­ in an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked a complete cure and he cannot help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by all druggists. Government l.Hiidn.

The residents of the English counties have nicknames the meaning and ori­ gin of which are not always obvious. Why the inhiibltants of Liverpool should be called "Dicky Sams" is not very clear. But nearly all the counties have their distinctive nicknames. The Glaswegians are "Keellos." the Lan­ cashire men are "Tim Bobbins," wMle the Lincolnshire folk have long been called "Yellow Bellies," after the frogs which once abounded there. Yorkshire men. again, are everywhere "Tykes," a nickname the etymology of which is not easy to trace. The Inhabitants of Suffolk are designated "Dumplings," those of Kent "Hogs" and the Isle of Wight people "Calves." DlaaM TIM, ' Englishmen in Queen Elizabeth's time dined at 11 a. in., and Shake­ speare rang-up the curtain at the Globe theater at 1 p. m., the performance ending between 5 and 6 o'clock. By the time of Charles II. dinner bad ad- i vanced to 1 o'clock and the pluy began i at 3 p. m., as Pepys records. A cen­ tury later Horace Walpole complained of dinner being as late as 4 o'clock and evening not beginning until 0 o'clock. Up to the middle of the last century ; theaters opened at 6:30, dinner being proportionately earlier. Th« Only l**rfeut LHXAIIVK lu the Wor'd, Mr. Thomas Hicky. for many years a prominent citizen of Lincoln, 111, and one who has tried a great many liquid laxative^ pills, tablets and almost ev­ erything advertised for constipation, says: "After using them all. Re-Go Tonic Laxwtive Syrup has done me more good in a month than anything I have evQr tried, and it is so pleasant to take that I reslly like it. I believe it is the only perfect laxative in the world." There is no griping or nanseating effect following the use of this medicine. It is pleasant and certain, stimulates the secretions, and aids nature in ^gesting and assimilating the food, aticf as a tonic is never failing. • Sold in 25c,' 50c and |1 00 bottles by G; W.

He complained that every thine was wrong, till it was perfectly scandalous, and the Great Spirit, getting tired of his grumbling, said: "You and the world I have made don't seem to fit. One or the other must be wrong. It is easier to change you. You don't like the trees, you are unhappy on the ground and think ev­ erything is upside down, so I'll turn you inside out and put you in the water." This was the origin of the shad.-- Ernest Thompson Seton in Century. Startling Evidence. Fresh testimony in great qaantity is constantly coming in, declaring Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds to be nnequaled. A recent expression from T. J.

Then I began taking Dr. King's New Discovery and a few bottles wholly cured me." Equally ef­ fective in curing all Lung and Throat troubles, Consumption, Pneumonia and Grip. Guaranteed by Julia A.
