determined to kninv

the truth of tho matter and went out to jfilei. Mr. Peiinell is farmer and has a neat and comfortable home near Nile*. Wo

Jir. Pcnnell if it was true that he lmd been eured of a bad case of rlnuimntism bv Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. said that three years apo in August 1891, he was ieiied with Revere pains in the hip, just where tho sciatic nerve is, which gradually rundown his leg making life a misery to him but not preventing him from doing iome work on the farm. Soon after ho was lo«dini{ hay when lie slipped off the load and hit his hip on the wheel. After this hswris worse, Kufl'erinp fjreat agony, and for some time was unable to do any'work. He took such medii'ines as his physician prescribed and improved somewhat so that he could help S"i!ie uround the farm apain. About Tliiiiiksy ng time he w:i- helping to put away some I .irrelsof eider wMch he had made, when

strained him«, !F anri again

became helple?*. lie then tried another physician who l'. lt confident of curing him by'the use of I'm: electric batterv and medicines which he prescribed. Hut failure was the result, lie got no better, and another physician was tried and treated him for iome time. By this time his whole body wasafl'eetnd. Sharp pains would start in his hand or foot, r.in uj one side of his body, over his shoulders and then down tho other title and then puss oil' for a short time These pains would return regular!r. afi'eetinfliis whole body, and nothing seemed to relieve him and he began to despair of ever being well. In the spring of lJiya a relative in another county read of a ease very similar t» Mr. IVnnell's, which had been cured In-I'ink I'ills, and sent the article to him, asking if it did 'not suithisea.se. It was very similar and he determined to try them He commenced taking Pink Pills mid soon It't better, the pains became less violent with longer intervals between them. lie fe.'t encouraged and persevered in their use and soon became able to work on the farm and in April or May he felt k. fr..,". |-,.(1j,j psin that he considered himself a well man again. He sa -s he has probably token boies and able to do as good a day's work as any other man, and we can Bay that l.e looks like a hale and heartv man who had never known sickness.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore •-iH11»-reJ nerves. They are for eale bv all druggists or may be had by m-ill from' Dr. Wi I Man is-' Medicine Company, Schenectady, X. V. for 60c. Der bo*, or six boies for i.'.oO.

as an AdvertiKeiiient.

Tho (ireat Fronoh painter, Bastien liOiJftge, was pursncffiy uiiincrciful disaster through his yunth in his efforts to study air. 11 is mother worked in tho fields to keep that sickly lJOy at sc d. At lu he went to Paris alone, sta -cl for seven years, painted without sue s, but still painted. Ilo had just fii a pi('ttii'' to M'lid to tho .salon wimn'i is was besieged, ami lio rushed with his comrades to the trenches.

On the first day a shell fell into his studio and destroyed his picture, and another shell fell at his feet, wounding him. He was carried hoinu and lay ill and idle for two years. Then ho returned to I 'ax-is, and, reduced to absoluto want, painted cheap fans for a liviug. One day a manufacturer of some patent medicine ordered a jiicturo from liini to illustrate its virtues. Lepage, who was sincere, gave his best work to tho advertisement. Ilo painted a landscape in the April sunlight. Tho leaves of tender green quivered in tho breezo a group of beautiful girls gathered around a fountain from which the elixir of youth sprang in a bubbling stream. Lepage believed therowas real merit in it. "Let me offer it at tho salon," ho asked his patron.

Tho manufacturer was delighted. "But first paint a rainbow archiug over tho fountain, ho said, "with the name of my medicine upon it." Lepago refused. "Then I will not pay you a sou for tho pictnro!" Tho prico of this picture meant bread for months, and tho painter had long needed bread. The chance of admission to tho salon was small. He hesitated. Then ho silenced his hunger and carried tho canvas to tho salon. It was admitted. Its great success insured Lepage a placo in public recognition and his later work a place among tho greatest of living artists.— Current Literature.

PLAYED WITHJHE BULL'S HEAD.

The Penalties Attached to Hand I11 l*ok«r Held Against Flvp Kln^s. Some varieties of cards have tho picture of bull head upon tho fifty-third card, which is known as tho "joker," and largely aileeted by progressive euchre players when thoy aro working assiduously for phited watch charms and cotton laco collars. It is seldom userl in a gamo of poker, but in some sections it is left in the deck upon such occasions, and when a man holds it, he is at liberty to give it tho samo value as any other card in his hand. Tho other night a party of jovial spirits sat down to while away a few hours at the seductive pastime, and when some ono asked what kind ol poker should be played another suggested that "everything should go." In tho parlance of poker this means a great deal. A player can cheat to his heart's content provided ho is not discovered, aud as all tho players were equally well equipped with tricks the proposition was acceded to.

During' t-ho gamo one of the players, excused himself for a moment on some apparently proper plea and loft the room. While, he was absent he secured a new deck of cards and arranged them so that the pnrsou who dealt them would receive four aces, while the man to his left would get four kings. Iu his hurry ho failed to remove tho bull's head. Returning to the room, he took his scat, and winking to the man next to him, whoso deal it happened to be, ho deftly slipped him the "cold deck. Tho dealer, having confidence in his friend, took tho pack and dealt out the hands. Of course he got the four aces. Tho betting was confined to him and the man to his left, and at last, when each had his cash and all his worldly possessions in the way of jewelry and wearing apparol staked on the result, tho hands were called.

The dealer gladly announced the proprietorship of four aces and reached out for tho plunder. Tho other man stopped him instauter. "Why, you can't beat four acosl" ejaculated tho dealer. "Oh, yes, I can,'' said his opponent. "I've got four kings and tho bull's head, and that makes five. That means that I take tho pot and all the rest of your clothes, and that every time I meet you on the street, in the next six months you'll have to give me a "i bill."

Then tho game broke up. Washington Post.

A Wonder of Coloring In Flower«. Tho editor of "Notes For tho Curious" recently read a wonderful accouut of a bunch of roses kept in aNew York herbarium, which still retain their original color, notwithstanding the fact that they were cut from the parent stalk three years and one month beforo the signing of our Declaration of In dependence. The editor of the paper ia which the notico appeared, ho 110 doubt considering it the "eighth wonder of the world," asked if any reader could give information concerning a case which roses or other liowors had retained their natural colors for so long a time.

Wo would state that wo have seen well preserved wreaths and garlands of lotus, red .and yellow poppies, and other unclassified flowers which were found on Egyptian mammies known to have been dead over fi,U00 years. Tho red poppies wero but, a shade lighter than thoso dried and pressed but a month or a year before, aud in the case of the yellow variety there was no distinguishable difference between those from tho auciont tombs aud specimens which had been dried but. a week. If tho editor who refers to tho colonial roses as wonders will visit the Egyptian museum at Cairo, Jiowill find dried colored flowers of suflicient antiquity to excite his wonder.—St. Louis Kepnblic.

The return of the tiara seems to denote that tho style of hairdressing is again in tho ascendant. This ought to bo good news to all except tho divinely tall woman, to' whom tho loss of an inch or two by a coifl'uro dressed low in tho neck was immaterial. To tho averago woman the .Madonna style of headdress was certainly it handicap. It suggested a revival of the archaic scarcely more in keeping with the ordinary British profile than the profe.-.sed appreciation of IJotticoJli is with the ordinary British character.—lJa!l Mall Hudget.

WHAT BREAMS ARE.

SIGNIFICATION OF VISIONS THAT ARE BEHELD IN SLEEP.

Scientists Ainl Soothsayers Unsatisfactory III Theli A„tviiiptcd Kxplanntinns—Some of tho Interpretations Given by the SAgo8 of Long Ajfo,

Scientists explain that dreams are but reflections of our waking thoughts and actions. Wo who dream know it is not so. Wo know that sleep brings visions not of places and things aud people wo have seen, but of strange, weird images and happenings that our mortal eyes never saw and meditations never conjectured.

Tho Bible tells of tho interpreting of dreams, and ancient oxperts divined according to principles now unknown. Thoso wiso seers belioved 4n dreams as foretellers of futuro events, of good ana evil to tho dreamer, whose sleeping hours wero filled with visions of delight, or mayhap with phantoms of horror.

Tho sage, Abracadabra, in his immortal treatise 011 tho signification of dreams, says among a host of wise and witty conclusions: "It is fortunato to dream of littlo pigs, but unfortunato to dream of big bullocks." It may occur to the feeble intellect groping for causo and effect that this cau bo explained by the self evident fact that "littlo pigs" are harmless, but "big bullocks" aro the opposite. "If you dream you havo lost a tooth, you will soon loso a friend, remains prophetic. Indeed tho loss of a molar or an incisor is to bo deplored, and peradventuro tho first promonitory twinge of an exposed nervo lias caused tho dream. But how explain "If you dream your house is 011 fire, you will soon havo news from a far country," and "to dream of clear water is a sign of grief?"

Perhaps the modern system of interpretation may be summed up in tho terse aphorism that "dreams go by contraries. So if you dream of receiving money you will likely loso it if you dream of kisses, fond and sweet, you have blows in store. "If you dream of the dead, you will hear from tho living. 'I

It is moro conducive to comfort of mind, on tho whole, to return to tho ancient sages. Abracadabra may again bo quoted as declaring that the "most fortunate of all dreams is to dream that you are up to your nock in mud and mire." But, again, "td dream that you stand naked in tho streets is a suro sign of trouble, distress and perplexity." Not to bo wondered at sure, even in a dream 1

Let us go back still further and consult a much older authority than Abracadabra—tho wiso and loarued Tyroscophornus. Ilo gives a long list of significations, embracing almost every known treo and plant, vegetable, flowers and fruits. To dream of a leafless treo is a sign of great sorrow of a tree without branches, despair and suicido the yew and tho elder mean sickness to the young and death to the old. "For a maiden to dream of stripping tho bark from any treo is a sign of loss of character," declares the hoary old sage, for a married woman it means bereavement. Indeed Tyroscophornus divides his significations according to tho sex and condition of tho dreamers. Thus to a man tho stripping of the bark portends an increase of fortune. Tho lime tree means a voyage across the ocean the elder t.reo is auspicious and the lir tree more so to dream of the oak portends long life and prosperity—fitting is this, decidedly—and the ash troe foretells a long journey.

Only limitod by tho number of known shrubs are their significations. To dream of dock loaves moans a present or possibly only a visit from your country rolatives. Of artichokes wo aro told that thoy signify favor from an unexpected sourco. Sorrel moans the ,approach of calamity which will require all your courage to face. Of tho sunflower, tho loved of the aesthetic, a deep wound to your pride.

If a fair maiden dreams of daffodils, sho must, alas, mistrust her lover I Ho will bear watching. A sad fate with which to burden t.ho innocent posy. Heart's ease moans heartache. Lilies, joy to dream of roses brings happy lovo not unmixed with sorrow. Tho fragrant, modest, violet, whoso perfumed petals give sweet odor without stint, if seen and carried in dreams, brings sorrow and evil to tho unwedded, but tho opposite, joy aud good, to the married. Water lilies appropriately portend dangers from tho sea. Yellow flowers betoken joalousy. Of fruits, pomegranato is the best. To dream of this rosy fruit denotes happy marriage to tho single and poaco between quarrelsome couples. Green figs mean embarrassment, but dry ones mean money to tho poor aud mirth to tho wealthy. Quinces indicate pleasant company, and lemons tell of separation.

To dream of aloes in bloom botokens a legacy. Without a blossom, long lite. The broom flower meaus an increase of family, and the delicate anemone is a sign that you will soon fall in love or be made lovo to. To dream of asparagus in bunches, as ono buys it, from the market stalls, is a sigu of tears, but if 111 your dream you see it growing it. means good fortune. Cauliflower is better to ear, than to dream of. It signifies when you see it iu your dreams that till vour friends will drop you for 110 worse reason than poverty.

There aro more disagreeablo significations to dreams than pleasant ones, To dream of vermin is a sign of sickI ne.ss. 1 havo found this true in my own experience. To dream of serpents, false friends are al our, you. A falling rain foretells tears and broken eggs a quarrel. Egu's unbroken denoto good hick and prosperity. To dream of fruit of any kind our, of seasou means anger without reason, which is a rhvmo at all events.—Emma I. McLaganinSt Louis
