Shiloh has cured many thousands of the

who have tried Shiloh and been cured.
Mrs. Archie Taylor, Asaph, Pa., writes: --

A curious test of the atmosphene was
tried In the French senate recently.
General Biilot complained of a head-
ache at a recent session and attributed
it to gas given off by the heating appa-
ratus. The engineer was unable to find
any defect in the apparatus. Recourse
was had to a "bird test." Bengalee
• birds are reputed to be very easily as-
phyxiated. One was hung in a cage for
eight hours over the fauteuil in which
general Bitot contracted the head-
taebe. As the bird was lively at the end
'of that period, the atmosphere was pro-
nounced Duro.

The Hattie of the Giants,
The Battle of the Giants was anoth-
er name given to the battle at Mard-
guauo in 1515 between the allied
French and Veuetlans and the allied
Italians and Swiss armies. The latter
were defeated with slaughter, over 12,-
Q00 of their troops being left on the
field. The vietors lost 4,000. The bat-
tle Was given this name by'1'rIvalzio, a
Soldier and historian, who was present,
Rock Oil.
When petroleum was first discovered
In this country it was called rock oli
and was sold in small vials as a spa-
eifie for rheumatism.
Sponges..
Certain sponges (cliona) bore into
shells, especially those of the oyster,
finally causing them to crumble to
pieces. On the American coast Clime
sulphurea not only destroys the shells
of oysters, mussels and scallops, but
has even been known to penetrate one
or two iuehes into hard marble.
Talleyrand.
Taileyrand could throw more pathos
into a single word than another man
could express in a dozen sentences. He
was a master of elocution.
Sculptares of Nineveh.
Some of the sculptures found at
Nineveh and executed, it is said, about
2000 B. C. are of wonderfully delicate
workmanship and excite the admira-
tion of the sculptors of today.
The Knight's Snrcoa,t.
The knight's surcoat, a long, flowing
gown, worn outside the armor, was an
impediment iu action, but valuable
otherwise, for it often saved his life by
iuelicating his rank, position, wealth
and the amouut of ransom he was able
to pay. The gold inlaid and jeweled
armor of the knights served the same
purpose by advertising the rank and
wealth of the warrior.
In Memory of n Rain.
At Tissington, an English town, the
wells and springs are decorated on As-
cension day in memory of a rain that
fell on that date nearly 400 years ago
after a drought that threatened a fam-
ine.
The IIarpooned Whale.
The greatest velocity attained by a
whale when struck by a harpoon is
nine miles an hour.
Bismarck's Favorite Figure.
Prince Bismarck, it is said, had a
curious superstition connected with
the number three and apparently not
without reason. ile served three Ger-
man emperors; he fought in three
wars; he signed three treaties of peace;
lie arranged the meeting of the three
emperors and established the triple
alliance.
Patagonia.
Patagonia was named by Magellan
from a Spanish word signifying "big
foot." Ile formed his impression of
the natives before seeing them by the
impriuts of their amble pedal exten-
sions in the sand.
The Cassock.
A cassock was origiunlly another
name for the garment now called a
vest. It was afterward applied to a
long, loose coat.
Piano Recital.
The term "recital" was used for the
first tipue in annouucing Liszt's piano-
forte performances at the Old Hanover
Square rooms. The pianist, indeed, In
one of his letters writes, "Le recital,
c'est mot."

Ocklockonee, the name of a Florida
river, means "yellow water,"

Jeremy Taylor memorized his ser-

Indian Corn.
Botanists say that the Indian corn
is a grass of the tribe of phalaridae;
that the leaves are linear lanceolate
and pubescent, with a short ligule; that
the inflorescence Is luonoeeious; that
the pistillate flowers are crowded On
the rachis; that the ovary is bifid, and
that the withered glumes and palet re-
main on the raehis. And if you do not
know all about the subject now it's
your own fault.

STILL GROWING.
Demand for Mi-o-na Stomach
Tablets Continues to
Increase.
Although Mi-o-na was introduced in
Wingham but a short time ago, it is to-
day outselling all other medicines for
the cure of Indigestion and stomach
troubles.
Mi-o-na almost invariably cures all
forms of indigestion and stomach trouble
except cancer.
It gives such health and strength to
the weakest stomach that all the food is
readily converted into nutrition, so that
it gives nourishment and health to the
whole system. In this way nervousness
and sleeplessness are cured; headaches,
backaches, and rheumatic pains are pre-
vented and there will be no more poor
appetite, distress after eating,heart-burn
or debility.
Mi-o-na costs but 50c a box.
If you cannot obtain Mi-o-na of your
druggists, it will be sent by mail, post.
paid, on receipt of price. Write ns for
advice on your case from a leading sto-
mach specialist which will be sent free.

A Strenuous College President.
The energy of President Harper of
the University of Chicago is both the
despair and the admiration of those
who know hint. His driving power is
extraordinary. Said a member of the
faculty: "Dr. Harper knows all abort
the 'eight hour day:' He puts in two of
them every twenty-four hours." For
years Dr. Harper went to bed at mid-
night and rose at P. To a theological
student downcast because he could ar-
range no hour to meet the president for
advanced work Dr. Harper said, "Are
you free at 5:30 in the morning?"
"Yes," was the startled answer. "Then
come every day at that hour." And the
arrangement was concluded 011 that
basis. --World's Work.

HER PREFERENCE.
What the Little Oue HOPed Mae
Would Die of.
In Keokuk, Ia., there is a little girl
with a very tender heart. Next door
there lived a two-year-old baby, to
whom she was warmly devoted in
child -mother fashion. When one morn-
ing her mother took her up very gently
and told her that the baby girl had met
with a terrible accident, that she had
toddled out into the road and had been
run over, the poor child cried in parox-
ysms all day and could not be consoled.
In addition to leer grief over the baby's
death the horror of the accident had
impressed her deeply, Finally toward
evening she quieted down through
sheer weariness, and as she curled close
in her mother's anus she murmured
eholtdngly;
"Oh, mamma, I Hope when I die I'll
die Of a disease and not of a damage:"
-Lippincott's Magazine.
The Lige of Contraries,
"Does your wife belong to any

"How do you keep her home? Aly

"You went to work the wrong way.
I told mine I approved of club life for
women and to join all she could and
not to mind if Mrs. Prettyman over
the way did go about pitying me for
being so neglected." -Baltimore Amer-
ican,
Good; Hearted.
The young man was wrapped in
gloom. "The beautiful Miss Doodle-
dum," be said, "rejected me last night.
"But she gave me a hiss at parting,"
he whispered thrillingly, "and I shall
never for get the sweetness of that
kiss."
Thereupon his companion arose has-
tily,
"I think," said be, "I'll trot around
there and propose myself." -New York
