BISMARCK A FINE LINGUIST However, Prolonged Discussions in French at Congress of Berlin Strained His Faculties. Although a remarkably due linguist, Bismarck found that the prolonged discussions in French at the congress of Berlin were a strain on hie faculties. Shortly after the congress closed he told a friend that, "apart from the importance of the negotiations, it proved extremely exhausting to express myself in a foreign language so correctly that my observations could be embodied In the protocol without having to be altered. Before I proceeded to the congress I used to drink | two or three beer glasses full of the strongest port wine, in order to get my blood to circulate properly. But for this stimulant I should have been quite unable to preside.” Bismarck's English was noted by Lord Randolph Churchill, who met the great Prussian at Kissingen in 1893. Lord Randolph desedbes him as “speaking English very carefully and slowly, frequently pausing to get the right word, but always producing it or something like it in the end.” One word that puzzled him was supplied by Lord Randolph. The talk had i turned on Gladstone, who, Bismarck said, "had always been like an ungovernable horse, whom no one could ride in any bridle and was not to be controlled in any way.” He used some German adjective to describe the horse (Lord Randolph forgot it) and asked what was the English equivalent. Lord Randolph suggested “rogue,” and he "turned his face to me with a smile, but said nothing, though he clearly understood the allusion.” —London Chronicle. IT WASN'T THE SAME WOMAN Nevertheless, the British Soldier’s Desire to Marry Lasted Through the Year of Probation. I , There is a famous British general ‘ who hates to see his soldiers wed. One day a Tommy came to him and asked permission to marry. The general, hoping to cool the man’s ardor, told him to go away and come back again a year from that day, and if he was then in the same mind permission would be given him to marry. When the year had passed the soldier repeated his request. "But do you really still wish to marry?” asked the general in surprise. “Yes, sir, very much?” answered Tommy. “Well, you may marry now,” said the general. “I never believed there was so much constancy in man oi woman.” The soldier saluted and prepared to leave the room, but when he got to the door he turned around and said: “Thank you, sir, but it isn’t the same woman.”—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tele-graph. Needed Them. Little Johnny was ill. Indeed, little Johnny had been desperately ill. But little Johnny neither had been nor was too ill to be vastly concerned over any chance to get something for noth ing. When the doctor came into the bedroom, the other morning, he placed his finger on Johnny's pulse and then smiled. “Fine! Splendid!" he said to Johnny's mother. “His pulse dropped a quarter yesterday and a half today. Excellent!” And after he made his departure, little Johnny lay in bed staring vacantly into space. It was quite evl dent that something was on his mind “Mamma," he said finally, "when the doc comes tomorrow will you ask him where that quarter and that halt dropped to —I've got only six cents in my bank and I'd likeHo find 'em?” The Seven Seas. “The seven seas" is a phrase which greets the eye on many a page. “Sail ing the seven seas,” "Mistress of the seven seas,” etc., are phrases so often encountered that several scholarlymen have sought to trace the origin of the reference. The quest seems not to have resulted satisfactorily, and the matter remains in dispute. One of the interesting features brought out by the controversy is that, as employed many centuries ago, “the seven seas” did not include either the Atlantic or Pacific ocean, but referred to the Arabian sea, the Persian sea, the Red sea, the Caspian sea, the Black sea, the Mediterranean sea and the Adriatic sea. — Sensible Soothsayer. “You are going to have a great deal of money some day,” said the clairvoyant. “Am I going to marry it or earn it?” asked the pleased client. "You are going to marry it, but you’ll earn it, all right!” L ■ n Diet Fit for the Great. Cholly (in a restaurant) —Bah the way, the papah says King George, by the doctah’s orders, eats nothing but the plainest food. Atyg—Waltah! Corned beef and cabbage.—New York Weekly. — Z O The Test "Are you sure that he loves you?” “Absolutely. He took me to a baseball game and never lost his temper I once, though I asked him all the foolqpej}tif>Aa jL could think of.”

MEAT CAUSE OF I KIDNEY TROUBLE Take a glass of Salts if your Hack hurts or Bladder bothers— Meat forms uric acid. If you must have your meat evary day, cat it, but flush your kidneys with salts ' occasionally, says' a noted authority who tells us that meat forme uric acid which ' almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to exfiel it from the blood. They lieeotne sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, i tongue is coated and when the weather I is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The I urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three time during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the ( body’s urinous waste get four ounces of Jad' Salta from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of ! grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has.been used for generations to flush ami stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; eannot injure, and makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink. SAGE Ttt DAKD'f TO DARKEN HAIR Look years younger!
