A Couple of Sootoh Stories.
There aro some good Scotch anecdotes
which will boar telling. One is that of a
careful mother who had a splattering of
higher talk gained from 440800i44ti0n with
" the quality."
" Ye moon gang to the ministor and tell
him to come baptize the bairn, but mind,
John, that ye donna say bairn—say infant."
Her better half pondered the word, and
when he had eomnlitted it to memory Ile had
reached the minister's house. lie soon 140
he saw rho reverend parson he began his
message.
" Maggie says ye air to come over and
bapteeze the—
It is the bairn ye moan, John?"
No, 1144, it's Hoo that; at a', " said John in
deep distress, " it's the—the—it's the ele-
phant, air 0" e 4 it 4 *
Another Scotch story is this ; A Scotch
elder who did not believe that his own min•
i0(0r held etrictly orthodox views, wl0ho(1 to
have his babe baptized, but would not risk
its spiritual welfare by having him perform
the rite 111 any heterodox Manner. So he
walked to another town only to find the
minister 11e sought was away fishing. The
next one he was directed to had gone hunt-
ing. Filled with indignation he said to his
companion 1
" Weed gang to Meister Erskine. , That
godly man will no bo fishing or hunting."
So he found the house, but as he approach-
ed 11 he heard the sound of music. When
the servant lassie opened the door he re-
marked to her :
"lee have company the night. I hear the
fiddle going."
"Na, na,'" she answered blushing, " Rob-
in could na play like yon, but the m11110101'
aye fiddles a bit afore ho goes to bed."
The good man went away without making
his errand known. No minister who played
the fiddle could baptize his bairn, so he went
hock to his own, who neither fished, hunted
nor played forbidden music, and let him
name the child.

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
A Canadian Druggist Makes a Discovery
Rivalling Clout. or Dr. Rail.
•
The civilized world has recently been
deeply agitated over the annottneement that
Dr. Koch, an eminent German physician,
had discovered a lymph for the cure of con-
sumption. This discovery has been herald-
ed throughout the world, and is looked upon
as one of the greatest achievements of mod-
ern medical scien00. Of equal, if not greater
importance, is a discovery made by a well-
known Canadian druggist, which, while it
does not pretend to come consumption after
the lungs have been affected, is offered with
every confidence as a preventative of that
disease. Medical teatfinony bears out than
statement that more than two-thirds of the
cases of consumption, occurring in the
Country annually, are of catarrhal origin.
The trouble begins with a oold in the head,
which rho sufferer treats as a light matter,
and too frequently neglects. This in time in-
variably develops into catarrh ; the mucous
membrane beoomesthickened, inflammedand
hardened, and there 18 aprofueodischarge of
watery and poisonousmatterfromtho nostrils
or else the pot8onoue secretions bodomo clog-
ged and hardened. In either ease the breath
is inhaled over this poisonous ,natter, end Ira
duces baleful results. The inflammation
gradually extends to rho bronchial tubes,
and thence to the lungs, whioh, already
poisoned and weakened by the foul breath
inhaled, .aro ripe for that dread disease—
consumption, whish ends in death. A
remedy that will prevent these disastrous
consequences intuit be regarded as a boon to
mankind, and, an already stated, such a
einCanadian

has
rru Y ease of cold in the
druggist. There is no
head which it will not instantly relieve and
permanently care. Do not, for at instant,
neg1e0t a cold in the tread, for by its prompt
treatment, you will prevent its developing
into catarrh—thio second stage on the road
to tit grave. If, however .catarrh has al•
ready developed, the use of this groat
remedy will prove equally beneficial, as it
affords speedy relief, and will effect a nor•
t4tin core, even 1n the most aggravated oases,
if persistently used. It removes the score•
titins, frees the clogged nostrils, and sweet-
ens the breath, stops the infiatilm44tiou and
(11(1 t avos the longs and prevents the dmeas0
•developing into aonSunuption. This great
discovery is known and sold throughout the
country tinder the name of Nasal Bolin. It
is a positive 44ncl certain cure, and the thou•
sands of testimonials in the hands of its pro-
1rietors prove that it is all they olaim for
it. It is sold by all dealers, and every suf.
foyer from ooldin the head or catarrh should
use it.
He Did Not Call.
The man who tried Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, and was sure of the 6500 reward
offered by the proprietors for an incurable
case, never called for his money. Why not ?
0, because he got cured 1 He was sure of
two things : (1) That his catarrh could not
bo cured. (2) That he world have that 6500.
He isnot() sure of ono thing, and that is, that
his catarrh is gone completely. So he is out
6500, of course. The makers of Dr. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy have faith in their ability
to cure the worst eases of Nasal Catarrh, 110
matter of how longstanding, and attest their
faith by their standing reward of 0500, offer-
ed for many years past, for an incurable case
of this loathsome and dangerous disease.
The Renedy is sold by druggists, at only 50
cents. Mild, soothing, cleansing, deodoriz-
ing, antiseptic, and healing.

"The hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world."
The mother, sitting beside and rocking
the cradle, often singing her sad lullaby,
may be thus shaping as it were, the des-
tinies of nations. But if diseases, conse-
quent on motherhood, have borne her down,
audsapped her iife, how mournful will be
her song. To cheer the another, brighten
her life, and brighten her song, Dr. Pierce
of Buffalo, has, after long experience, com-
pounded a remedy which he has called his
" Favorite Prescription," because ladies pre -
faired it to all other's. He guarantees it to
cure nervousness, neuralgic pains, bearing
down pains, irregularities weakness, or pro-
lapens, headache, backache, or any of the
ailments of the female organs. What he
asks is, that the ladies shall give it a fair
trial, and satisfaction is assured. Money is
refunded if it doesn't eiv0 satisfaction.
