After ‘all this treatment he was finally cured, sound and well, by Swift’s Specitic. Another customer, Mr. 8., has snffered for many years, with Blood Poison, and thought he had been cured by mercurial treatment, but the disease returned, accompanied by Rheumatism of a bad type.

Glasses for Headache

“Why is there so much headache now,’”’ is a question often asked. It did not used to be so; but times change and so do diseases. Probably threefourths of t heheadaches of today can bg traced back to fancy work or measles. Giris put in all their spare time at some fine work, and the more they work at it the more they want to, but soon they bring the work right up to the end of the ‘nose to see. This means that nearsightedness is coming on. The eyes will be painful, there is a dull ‘headache about the eyes, the face becomes wrinkled and the next thing you know the headache will pass to the back part of the head, and you o and lie down and say you have the sick headache but you have nothing of the kind; you seem to be nearsighted, ‘and if youshould consult an eye doctor he would give you nearsichted glasses,. 'which would further establish the nearsightedness, and thus compel a girl of 15 years old to wear glasses all her life ‘and would not relieve the headache. Years ago people were either near or farsichted, but these cases are neither, ‘as it is geénerally mixed with neuralgia or catarrh. ' ‘All the little muscles of ‘the eye are sore and inflammed, which requires all the: skill the most experienced optican can command to give relief, and new: methods had to be employed in order to relieve eyery muscle of the eye so that there isnot a particle of strain, and when this is accomplished with the proper material, headache is impossible, as the cause has been removed that brought it on in the first p'ace, and the headache is gone atonce, the nearsightedness will disappear, and in a few months you lay the glasses aside and you wonder why you bought them. This kind of headache is nearly every young lady’s property, and that girl comes home from school sick. But it is a good thing there is a remedy, and you will know for yourself when you get a pair on, and if ‘my remedy will do you no good, you simply keep your money and go home, that’s all. J. L, MIL:LER, Optican, At Ligonier House, Thursday, October 23d.

- COERCING A JURYMAN. The Singular Method Adopted by the Eleven to Convince the Twelfth. Mr. Montagu Williams, in his ‘“‘Leaves of a Life,” tells an amusing anecdote to illustrate the s’ingular method by which, occasionally, an English jury secures the unanmimity necessary to a verdictk It need hardly be said that nothing of the kind could possibly happen in the United.\States. In this country men do not serve on juries at their own pleasure, but when they are drawn as jurors, and one who is prejudiced isnot allowed to serve; bhut the author gnoted is a high authority on the lEnglish practice. ] A man named Watkyns was charged with being the ring-léader in a riot during a Parliamentary eléction. He was a strong Conservative, and a certain buteher of the Liberal party had been heard to declare that he would get on the jury, and then have a leg cut off rather than acquit Watkyns. When the trial began, the butcher was found to be one of the jurymen. : Watkyn's counsel stated to the court the butcher’s remark, and then said, “The gentleman will see the impropriety of remaining in the jury-box, and will at once retire.” . “I sha'n't budge an inch!” answered the butcher; bracing himself in his seat. “I never said what has been reported, and if I had said it, I should stand on my rights as an Englishman. I'vea right to serve on the jury, and on the jury I'll serve! The judge declined to interfere, but simply- said, ‘‘We must rely upon this gentleman’s good sense, and the obligation he attaches to an oath.” The case lasted for two days, and the evidence was very conflicting. Some witnesses swore that Watkyns, mounted on a white horse, led the rioters. Other witnesses swore that he was in another part of the borough when the disturbance took place. : ‘ : At six o'clock on the second day the jury retired to consider their verdict. At ten o’clock the judge sent a messenger to them,; asking if they had agreed. They came into court and stated that there was little likelihood of their being able to agree upon a verdict. The judge informed them that he should lock them up for the night. At four o'clock in the morning news wass sent to. judge and counsel that the jury had agreed. Thecourt wasopened, and when the names of the jury were read over, only eleven answered. ‘‘One juryman has not responded to his name.” said the judge. It was the butcher; his name was called a second time, and a feeble voice answered, **Here.” :

The judge did not look toward the jury-box; he.had guessed accurately what had occurred. The butcher’s coat and waistcoat were torn from his back; his shirt-sleeves were tattered, and his face was - besmeared with blood. From the first the jury had stood eleven to one. After nine hours of argument, the eleven had pounded the butcher until he was willing to return a verdict of *“Not Guilty.”—Youth's Companion. .

KING LECPOLD.

An Able and Active Man and a Decidedly Able Statesman.

King Leopold 11., King of the Belgians, is an able and active man, though not an emiently popular one. For some reason, not easily explained, he has just missed -the general favor, and this in spite of the fact that he is one of the men who know how to say the right thing at the right time, and who never forget a face they have once seen.

~ One day his Majesty was on the pier at Ostend, walking quietly about among his subjects like a simple citizen. He saw a Brussels burgher, and accosted him." :

‘K bein, and how are your orchids?” *‘My orchids, sir?” ‘“Yes, those you exhibited two years ago.’’

The flower amateur had himself forgotten that past hobby, others having meanwhile eéngaged his attention; but the King never forgets. This King possesses the precious art of finding the proper point of view from which to regard ull classes of men. Visiting a large manufactory in company with the Shah of Persia, he approached a group of workmen, and said, shaking: ‘them by the hands: : “Never forget, my dear fellows, that we must all work. We are all workmen in our respective spheres.” .His habits are simple, his activity great, and his ability asa statesman unquestioned. As it has often been declared, if he bad been bornin the burgher class, he would greatly have distinguished himself. According to his actual destiny, he is merely one ot many Kings, and not one oi the most popular.— Youth’s Companion. b R Reeat Phil Armour's Geller()sity. “I heard a new story about Phil Armour, the other day,” said a gentleman, who also remarked that the story is ‘‘absolutely true.” ‘A minister called to see the great packer, and briefly stated his case. A woman in his church was in destitute circumstances. She had been deserted by her husband, and was worthy of charitableattention. The minister’s flock being too poor fo do any vhing, the minister appealed to Mr. Armour and received $5O in cash. The next day the the minister called again, and returned the money with the information that he had learned the woman was not in good repute and that her husband had left her for cause. There fore the minister was of the opinion that the woman was not worthy of any thing. Mr. Armour made some inquiries about the woman, took her address, and, after the preacher had gone, he e¢alled a messenger and sent the woman a check for $lOO. He had satisfied himself that the woman was the subject of malicious gossip.—Chicago Tribune,

—Extreme ugliness is on the list of disqualifications laid down by the medis cal department for French conseripts. ‘“Excessive ugliness,” says the chief of the department, ‘‘makes a man ridiculous, prevents him from hayving authority over his comrades, and leaves him morbid and sensitive.” ‘“Male hysteria” is another valid plea for excuge from military servige.

. HUMMING-BIRDS' FOOD. | They Live on Gnats and Not on Nectar, as Some Naturalists Think. Once upon a time I saw a large hum-ming-bird at the lower end of a sloping, leafy-shaded glade, busily visiting every tuft of ‘‘Sweet William” up toward where I was. I laid down prone on the turf with my eyes within sixteen inches of a fine spray of flowers. The bird was a fine fellow with his flashing coat of bright emerald green. He visited every flower of each clump as he came up the little vale. At last he reached the one near my face, and with no suspicion thrust his slender beak into each purple cup. When I would wink my eyes he would stop and peer at me with his wee diamond black eyes, but I could not see what he got from the flowers to eat, whether nectar, pollen® or minute insects. |lt is generally supposed that they feed entirely on nectar, and that their tongue is a slender tube by which theysuck it up. The student of biology should take no such hearsay stories for granted; facts are his stock in trade. My wish was to find out what and how these tiny'birdlings were fed, so I carefully hid my person in the greenmery with my face within a few inches of the nest, and waited 16ng and impatiently for feeding ' time, but :the parents did not show up in sight. After an hour or more, thinking my horse near by kept them away I moved him, and then hid still more carefully, but in vain, and as the young became restless I concluded not to punish them longer. Then looking carefully I found numerous voidings of the young on twigs around the nest and the ground below. I gathered a number of these pellets, took them home, soaked them in clear water, placed them under the glass, and found them to be wholly composed of the remains of very small gnats and aphids, and seemingly nothing else. J could find in them no heads of small caterpillers and grubs. Many of the wings and heads of these gnat remains were so perfect that the trained entomologist might have determined from them the species. There were whole heads with the antenna attached, whole perfect leg cases, etc. This seems to settle the question that this humming-bird does not feed its young on nectar from flowers, as I have read they do. These young, though nearly full grown, had not their beaks as yet more than one-third the length, of the old ones.—Forest and Stream. '

: REMINDERS OF HOOD. . Death of a Lady Who Knew the Poet Well in Her Youth. Word comes of the death of Miss Isabella Hood, of Dundee, a distant relative of the illustrious Thomas Hood. When materials bearing - upon that poet's early connection with the city were being collected Miss Hood was able to throw most importantiight upon the subject. She remembered his residence when a mere lad with his aunt in Nethergate, his visits to Patrick Gardiner in Overgate, as well as his journey to his friends in Errol. She also recollected distinetly Hood’s being brought by his aunt to her father’s house in Murraygate, and described him as being a vivacious boy, full of liveliness and fun. The visit was repeated, and Tom had m‘any a scamper over the meadows and wards on the maltster's pony. Miss Hood also spoke of the poet’s -second ’ visit to Dundee, accompanied by his son (the late Tom Hood, editor of Fun,) in ‘ the autumn of 1843. When Mrs. Keay, -the poet’'s maternal aunt, died at Tayport, she gave to Miss Hood a number of interesting holograph letters of the poet, with a recommendation that they should be preserved. These letters and other mementoes of Hood were pre- ‘ sented to the museum of the city several years ago by Miss Hood, to give the ' geuneral public an opportunity of ini specting them. She was also in possesi sion of an interesting memento of the Camperdown family. About the end of the last century, it is stated, the poet’s ~uncle was engaged as a tutor in the family of the future hero of Camper‘down, who then resided at Lundie House. Captain Duncan was so pleased with the manner in which the tutor had ~discharged his duties' that he presented to him sets of his own silver garter and - shoe buckles, and the family gave him a Bible and pencil case. At the death of the tutor these gifts came into the possession of Mrs. Keay, her sister. When Hood visited Mrs. Keay at Tayport in 1843 she gave the pencil case as a gift to his son. The Bible and three of the buckles were sent to the poet’s family in London, and the fourth buckle was given, along with the letters, ‘to Miss Hood.—Chicago Evening Post. Ugliaens & bisquailfication. Extreme ugliness as a disqualifying cause seems intelligible in a candidate for matrimony, but is certainly less so when the question is one of fitness for military service. . This, however, is one on the list of disqualificationslaid down by the head of the medical department in a manual just issued on ‘‘Conscription in France.” Latterly the French authorities seem to be much more liberal in admitting the claims of men who do not wish to serve. The rejecttions are five per cent. more numerous than at the previous conscription. The French are looking more to the quality of their army than to the number of the recuits. Excessive ugliness, says this military doctor, makes a man ridiculous,prevents him from having authority over his comrades, and leaves him morbid and sensitive. If the ugliness be ‘adequate the elaim must be allowed. ‘‘Male hysteria” is another valid plea. The army doctors say it exists among French oonscripts, and it is the more objectionable as it is contagious.— London Daily News. | ; Been a Good l;g: T ‘ ~ Willie (down in the eountry- writing: home to his father)—~And I have been a ‘good boy, too, papa, Ihaven’trunaway for a week. e ; ~ Willie’s Mamma .
