Marlon Harland. The celebrated authoress, so highly esteemed by the women of America, says on pages 108 and 445 of her popular work, “Eve's Daughters; or, Common Sense for Maid. Wife and Mother"; “For the aching back—should it be slow in recovering its normal strength—an Allcock’s Plaster is an excellent comforter, combining the sensation of the sustained pressure of a strong warm hand with certain tonic qualities developed in the wearing. It should be kept over the seat of uneasiness for several dayglo obstinate cases, for perhaps a fortnight." “For paiu in the back wear an Allcock’s Plaster constantly, renewing as it wears off. This is an invaluable support when the weight on the small of the back becomes heavy and the aching incessant.”

Every Two Minutes

Physicians tell us that all the blood in a healthy human body passes through the heart once in every two minutes. If this action becomes irregular the whole body suffers. Poor health follows poor blood ; Scott’s Emulsion makes the blood pure. One reason why

SCOTT’S EMULSION

is such a great aid is because it passes so quickly into the blood. It is partly digested before it enters the stomach; a double advantage! in this. Less work for the stomach; quicker and more direct benefits. To get the greatest amount of good with the least possible effort is the desire of everyone in poor health. Scott’s Emulsion does just that. A change for the better takes place even before you expect it.

Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup stimulates the liver and bowels and makes you feel bright and active. Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup does not nauseate cr gripe and is mild and very pleasant to take. Orino is more effective than pills or ordinary cathartics. Refuse substitutes. A. F. Long.

FOR THE CHILDREN

Twisted Animals. Here Is a game that everybody would enjoy. It has one advantage that should commend it to young and old alike; It may be made quite simple and easy to play or quite difficult if so desired—that is to say, you may use a list of animals, such as we give here in illustration, or a list of phrases or sentences, the latter being of course .the mure difficult to “untwist.” In preparing for the game you write a list like the following, all the names being twisted, or “pied,” as the printers say, with the letters arranged in complete disorder; it is much better to make a typewritten list, for ordinary handwriting would not be plain enough: Peesh. Aimcosh. D uggop. Grabed. Roast Slab. Retlrer. Leap Then. Parti. Firfage. Kacopec. Torte. Somsoup. Rugaja. Unneplg. Give one of these lists to each placer, with a duplicate list of the numbers at the bottom of the sheet, and, having fixed a time limit, say, of half an hour, offer a prize to the player who first succeeds in writing the real names opposite to the numbers. Here is the “untwisted” list: Sheep. Chamois. Pug dog. Badger. Albatross. Terrier. Elephant. Tapir. Giraffe. Peacock. Otter. Opossum. Jaguar. Penguin.

Anta oa “Honeback." A French traveler has discovered a new species of ant in Siam, or at least a new trait that he has never before seen recorded. The creatures were very small, of a gray color and lived in damp places. They traveled often and in troops, which seemed to be under the direction of a commander, who rode on “horseback.” M. Meissen, the Frenchman who noticed this peculiarity. was attracted to these groups by discovering that each company contained a large ant that traveled more rapidly than the others. Observing them more closely, he noted that each large ant always carried a small gray ant upon Its back, though the remainder of the troop were on foot. This mounted ant would ride out from the line, travel swiftly along the column from head to rear and apparently overlook their maneuvers. M. Meissen concluded from what he saw that this species of ant while on its travels is under the direction of a commander, though such “ant horses” as the general rides must be rare and valuable, for he scarcely ever found more than one mounted ant in a colony.—Philadelphia Ledger.

Left Handed Animal*. It may seem queer to speak of an animal or a bird as left handed, but the naturalists use that term In discussing the question, just as they do in speaking of human beings. Many of them claim that all animals and birds are left handed. Livjngston, the famous African explorer, was among these. One of his illustrations is the habit of the lion in always striking with its left jjaw._ Parrots, are probably left handed, too, for they nearly always take with the left claw anything that may be handed to them. A student of parrot habits says, however, that this may be accounted for by the fact that people the right hand in giving anything to a parrot, and the bird naturally extends the claw that is nearer the object. Don’t* For Scholar*. Don’t think your object in studying is to please your teacher, for her life is not affected by your future successes or failure. The education she is trying to help you to get is wholly for your own benefit Don’t cheat at your exams. If you do, the day will come when you will regret It, for youth and early opportunity come but once, and when neglected there is no means of reparation.

MISS KENDAL'S FAN

She was rather a smart young woman. He thought himself an uncommonly smart young man. Her fan was sadly broken. So this economical young woman spent the afternoon before a party, sitting with her back to the light to give her complexion every chance, mending the Improvident fan with a weak solution of gum and water. Why weak Solution? Well, she knew what she was about better than you would. So she went with her estimable mamma, and she danced. She was personable—very—and she had a taking way with her when she liked, and she had a cool head, which is better than rubies and sometimes leads to them, and, though she did not have to live by her wits, she frequently made them afford various little additions to her toilet and that is no small matter to a smart young woman. So she danced and was sought after. And presently, while she was sitting out, her partner took hold of that guileless fan. In an instant It was broken, and her little cry of distress quite went to his heart. Being rather impecunious himself, young Schilling knew how difficult it was to raise the ready coin at every moment’s notice. “Doesn’t half match your dress,” he said as she examined It carefully, saying she must try if it could be mended. “Don’t bother about it. I’ll send you another.”

“How awfully sweet! And it’s just like you to think of matching my dress.” Her tone was charming. Then presently she went into supper with a man whom she had met two or three times and knew vaguely as one knows quadrates of casual acquaintances. But it was only that evening she had heard him described as very rich, and it made her thoughtful. This was the young man with bod 4 and estate. He thought her uncommonlj’ smart.

“How slippery these silks are!” she said as they finished supper. It was a sit down one and of remarkable virtue. “Do you think you could pick up my fan for me? It has dropped down at your side.” He pushed back his chair and stooped. “Oh, It’s broken!” she cried, bending too. At that moment Mr. Gould lifted his head. There was a slight collision. She blushed charmingly, and he held the fan awkwardly in his hand. The sticks were smashed across. Then that first young man passed on the other side of the table. He took in the situation, and he smiled an evil smile. She blushed deeply. The man of opulence stuttered. “Shall we go back into the dancing room?” she said softly, but she did not put out her hand for the fan, so he carried it. “I’m awfully sorry,” said Mr. Gould for the second time when they were in the corridor. “It was an old friend,” she rejoined plaintively. “Shall we turn into the library and cremate the relics? I can’t bear the idea of its being thrown on the dust heap.” When they stood by the fire he offered it to her. but she shook her head, smiling this time. “No, that is too cruel. You did it, and you must bum the poor thing.” “I’m awfully sorry,” he said for the third time. “May— er—may I not send you another?” “Oh. but this was of no value really. I can get one myself.” “No. Do let me. It was all my clumsiness. Let me have your address, and I’ll send you one.” She hesitated, paused expressively, till, lifting her eyes to him, she murmured, “Will you bring it, then?” She went home that evening and dreamed of having silver brushes with the most elaborate monograms procurable, but the rich young man fatuously conversed with his old schoolfellow, the poor young man. who threw himself in his way. So they became righteously indignant together over the artfulness of her scheming. “Let’s send her one of those Japanese paper things,” said young Schilling. “Come around to my rooms. We’ll find one there and do it up, with our kind regards.” “All right,” said young Gould, yawning, for he was half asleep and easily led. So they made up the parcel together. But Schilling rather overdid his part, and Gould, at the last moment relenting, pulled his card out again while the other had his back turned hunting for sealing wax and kept his own counsel. After all, he was a gentleman at heart, which the other never was nor could be. And the next day Gould sent her a lovely fan from the Burlington arcade, for he was ashamed of the way they had talked about her that night, and he avoided Schilling, whom he saw in the club. Then she wrote him such a charming little note! And then he met her unexpectedly at church one Sunday. Three weeks later they were engaged to be married, and she had three sets of hairbrushes given her right off and did not like any of them. Young Schilling thinks him an awful idiot to have been taken in by a girl like that. But she is very pleased; she did not want a clever man at all. She has wits enough for both any day. She will make a very good wife for a rich man, but young Schilling and she would have swindled everybody and come to grief in the end.—New York Journal.

Shifted Responsibility.

“You don't realize that there are other considerations in life than money,” said the censorious friend. “Yes, I do,” answered Senator Sorghum. “But whenever I want anything done I can't get the other fellow to realize it”—Washington Star.

DO NOT BE A BURDEN.

B. F. Fendig Gives Some Good Advice to Readers of The Democrat. Many people in Rensselaer are a burden not only to themselves but to others because,of indigestion and its resulting ailments. The backaches, headaches distress after eating, loss of appetite, gulping up of undigested food and gases, can all be overcome by the use of Miona stomach tablets. This remedy is not a mere digestive, it is a positive strengthener of the digestive organs putting them in shape so that they can digest any food that is eaten. Miona is used before meals and so strengthens the digestive organs, while other remedies are taken after meals simply to digest the food without giving permanent relief. B. F. Fendig sells Miona in 50c boxes under a positive guarantee that it will cure or money will be refunded.

“Walking Stick Insect.”

The “walking stick insect” of Brazil is one which has attracted a good deal of notice among students of natural history. This huge insect can scarcely be called a freak since It Is a species of which thousands may be found in certain parts of Brazil. It is very difficult to obtain, however, because it so nearly resembles the twig of a tree in appearance that one could easily pass hundreds of them and never know it. It is about eighteen Inches long.

The Autumn Fairies.

So many little fairies are kept busy in the fall, I wonder how the fairy queen can supervise them all. Why, a million fairy artists, each on* with jiaint and brush. Are out at early dawn light when th* woods are wrapped in hush. There each tiny fairy artist gets astride a little stem And works away for dear life, with no critic to condemn. He mixes up his colors and adorns each dainty ieaf; Here a touch of scarlet glory or a purple hint of grief Or a golden gleam of sunshine that will last when sunset fades. No one but a master artist could so fling, the lovely shades. There are dainty witching fairies work* ing busily all day, | Teasing fruits to blushing beauty, te*r*i ing chestnut burs away, Brightening up the fat young pumpkinal fit for jack o’ lantern time. Don’t you wonder, little children. ho*l they ever find their way Round the earth, so busy striving farj your pleasure every day? What! You don’t believe in fairies? And you say it’s only frost? Why, my poor, poor little wise heads. What a lovely world you’ve lost! —Washington Star
