Brilliant Sneoeaa, "I told a story several years ago in my house, when I wits living in Philadel- phia," said Robert C. Ogden, the famous New York merchant, "about a traveler on a New I7uglaud railroad. When 1 ended it,- I added;- 'So Artemus Ward once said, "'Yes,' spoke up John Sears, a Phila- delphia journalist of wide fame and. broad -attainments. 'Yes,' he repeated, 'that is just what Artemus Ward did say.' "'How do you know? 1 asked. Now, I had known Ai.- Scare for many years, mention nee m e acid 1 and never heard hi Ward before. 'Tell us all about It.' ' " `l• - heard him say it, I was there,' said Mr. Sears. ;'In 1859 or 1860 Browne, who and made a great reputation by his humorous work in the west and in New Yorlee ander the name of Artemus Ward, worked for one of° the .metropolitan pa- pers. 1 was employed by another one, and -; we had two friends who were work- iag in other offices. 'We used to dine' to- • gether every night. We advised Ward to. that become a lecturer. We told him he could make much more money lecturing than writing. But Ward demurred. He was afraid to venture it. One day, how- ever. he went to a• lecture bureau -and gave his- name. He chose for the title of • his.lecture •"The Children In the Wood." That night he told us .all about it, With- in a few days he received an offer to lec- 'tune for the benefit' of the Mechanics' library in Brooklyn, and he told us of • that too. . "' "i'm afraid 1 shall fair utterly," he said. "1 know .1. can't face an audience." " "But' you'll have yourmanuscript," -some one said. , I know it he' replied, '"but I'll be, t r to manageeven that." too flus a ed t '• "'In that .case," 1 said, "you; can tell stories,. 'just . as you .tell them to us, and that will carryyou through all right."' " "Ile night of the lecture:we t1%ree men went- with, Ward' to Brooklyn, and it was. just as -he had feared. . He forgot'..his lines, and he was so frightened that he even forgot'his manuscript. He faced bis audience- with a -blank look of despair' that most of the people took to be assum- ed, But 1 knew it was real.'. Then. he stoned efi-with a story that had no more to do with' "The Children In the Wood" than with the tariff .question, and when he endedgit he observed, "That is what 1 should have told you if I'were .not lectur- ing upon 'The Children 'In the Wood.'"

When Dr Pitcher worked out the formu- la for bis Backache Kidney Tablets, the action of each ingredient used • separately was carefully watched, and as one ingre- dient after another was added,the action in combination was a study which resulted in perfectly balanced medicine, Dr, Pitcher's Backache Kidney Tablets, the only prepar• atiottthat hasbeenable to establish itself by depending on local endorsement by people you know.
