and beautiful woman by a crowd of
jealous members of her own sex

Ler flirtations with the mea of the

aid stoning her mercilessly. At
first the then laughed, but when
they saw how savagely the girt was
being maltreated they attempted to
rescue Ler. The infuriated women,
however, drove them off and then
dragged their unhappy- victim, who
was by now a mass of wounds, to
a large tree just outside the vil-
lage, where they hanged her to one

I1J 1) TAPE iN CARVING.
Mas Who Carved at lCth Century
Banquet Bound by Precedent.
At the formal banquet of the six-
teenth century the utast who carved
the meat was bound with the red
tape of preecdeet. When carving
for distinguished guests he had to
remember that certain parts of the
birds or meat must be set aside.
In carving ter his lord and lady he
was expected to exercise great dis-
cretion in the sire of the pieces he
sent round, "for ladies will be
seen angry and their thoughts soon
changed, and some lords are soon
pleased and some not, as they be
of complexion." He was expected
to have the rules both of the kitchen
and the peerage at his knife's end.
A pike, for instance, must he dished
up whole fur a lord tied in sliees
for commoner folk. The rank of his
diners, too, determined whether a
Pig was til be served up whole,
sliced, plain or with geld leaf, or
whether new bread or bread three
days old should be eaten.
The Best Liver Pill. --The action
f the liver is easily disarranged.
;t sudden chill, undue exposure to
the element's, over -indulgence in
some favorite find, excess in drink-
ing, are a few of the causes. But
whatever may bo the cause, Par-
ree!ee'a Vegetable Pills can be re-
lied upon as the best corrective
that can he taken. They are the
leading liver pills and they have no
superiors among such preparations.

MONTREAL AND QUEBEC.
A veritable edition de luxe among
railroad pamphlets has been issued
by the Grand Trunk Railway Sys-
tem to proclaim amongst tourists
the glories of the eit1.'1 of Mont-
real and Quebec. The brochure is
beautifully printed and generally
arranged in the artistic style of
earlier days, when the oreamenta-
tton of a volume was reger'led as
an important incident to its pre-
sentation of reading platter. It is
also very well written, and gives
an interesting description of the
two most interesting cities in Can-
ada, with many ilhistratious from
photographs. Sent free to any ad-
dress. Apply to Mr. J. D. Mc-
Donald.
HOW SHOES SHOUD FIT.
A shoe, or evening stocking, that
is too short may go seriously deform
a child's foot aa to cause trouble
through life. Indeed, foot -gear of
all sorts should have, above every-
thing, length, breadth, and thick-
ness. The shoe ought to be at least
half an inch longer than the foot,
with a double sole broad enough
to save the upper fr•,m touching
the ground. Given these essentials,
the closer it sits to the foot the
better.
Comfort for the Dyspeptic—There
is no ailment so harassing and ex-
hausting as dyspepsia, which aris-
es from defective action of the sto-
mach and liver, and the victim of
;t is to be pitied. Yet ho can find
ready relief in Parrnelee's Vege-
table Pills, a preparation that has
established itself by years of effec-
tive use. There are pills that aro
widely advertised as the greatest
ever compounded, but not one of
them can rank- in value with Par -
melee's.
