Old People.

Old people who require medicine to regulate the bowels and kidnevs will find the true remedy in Electric Bitters. This medicine does not stimulate and contains no whiskey nor other intoxicant, but acts as a tonic and alterative. It acta mildly on the stomach and bowels, adding strength and giving tone to the organs, thereby aiding Nature in the performance of the functions. Electric Bitters is an excellent appetizer and aids digestion.

juBt

Hn. Bllllngtoo.

Students of the musical history of the close of the eighteenth century are familiar with the name of Mrs. Billington. For some 30 years, at a time when the art of singing was perhaps at its eenith, she reigned as one of the bright particular stars of the musioal world. Sir Joshua immortalized her as St..Ceoilia, and in the fulsome fashion of the day it was said that instead of representing her as listening to the angels he phould have paiuted the angels as silent before her. Michael Kelly, the papil of Mozart, said of her, "I thought her an angel in beauty and the St. Cecilia of song," and Haydn naively reoorded in his diary, "She is a great genius, and all the women hate her because she is beautiful" Her history is very curious, and the brilliancy of her career aB an artiBt is in strange contrast to the scandals which surrounded her from her very childhood.

The Georgian era was not a period remarkable for morality, on or off the stage, but making every allowance for the exaggeration of newspaper gossip, it is impossible to come to the conclusion that the life of Mrs. Billington was remarkable for

itB

virtue, even if the

darker accusations' whioh were freely brought against her are untrue. It says much for her personal charm that she

remained from first to last a favorite with the public, and her fascination as a singer enabled her to triumph over difficulties which, even in those dnys, would have wrecked the career of a less popular artist.—National Review.

Hov Much Do Dogs Know?

This is rather a difficult question to answer. A dog about 8 years old is no doubt wiser far thau a child double that age. At 6 a dog is in his zenith, and can be taught but little more, but by this time, although he cannot speak, except in a kind of dumb language, he knows everything that is said about him that is, if he has been the constant companiou of a kind master and mistress. We are too.loath to admit that a dog can understand quite a deal that is spoken, especially if it concerns himself. I am sure that, like myself, many of my readers could send me anecdotes in proof of this. The following is sent me by a lady. It is worth reading: "My husband had at one time a very fine collie, which seemed to understand conversatiou perfectly. On one occasion he told his housekeeper that he was going to ride next day to his father's place, 30 miles uway, and, turning to his dog, said, 'You will

Btay

at home.' Next

morning the dog was not to he seen, and when his master arrived at his destination the dog had got there first, and was peacefully jesting under a table. The strangest thing was that the dog was taken to my husband's home by rail, and had never traveled on foot between the two places."—Edinburgh Scotchman.

Carlyle'a "Moit Fool" Phrase.

Where, how and when did Carlyle declare that his countrymen were "mostly fools?" According to Mr. Justin McCarthy, in an article in this paper, as also, rather curiously, according to Mr. Francis Espinasse in his recently reprinted articles from The Bookman, it was in an appeal (printed in The Spectator) to Lord John Russell, then premier, to do something for the industrial improvement of Ireland. According to fact, however, It was in the "Latter Day Pamphlets," in the ohapter on parliaments. In the appeal to Lord John Russell Carlyle merely speaks of his countrymen as "twenty-seven millions, many of whom are fools in the "Latter Day Pamphlets," in the ohapter on parliaments, he says: "Consider, in fact, a body pf 658 miscellaneous persons set to oonsult about Business, with 27,000,000, mostly fools, assiduously listening to them and checking and criticising them—wqs there ever since the world began, willtfcere ever be till the ,?orld end, any business accomplished in these circumstances?"—

A Practical Joke.

Numes of the Qaite theater in Paris one night played a trick on Roumain, his fellow actor, which oreated no little amusement. In one of the scenes in the third act of the "Charbonniere," Roumain, after standing awhile in dumb despair with

hiB

hands to hiB face, sud­

denly turns toward the audience, displaying

hiB

pale, haggard features. To

produce the degree of "pallidness" required, Roumain carried in his pockets a quantity of white face powder, which he rubbed on the palms of his hands when the proper time had arrived. Now, Numes had secretly removed the white powder and substituted a hand ful of charcoal dust. You can imagine the result. The spectators laughed till they were blue in the face. But Roumain swore vengeance—dire vengeance —and some of these days we may expect to hear of another "pleasant evening," but at Nnme's expense this time. -•-Libre Paroie.
