Nothing

Tastes Good

And enting is simply perfunctory-done because It must he.

This Is the common complaint of the dyspeptic.

If eating sparingly, leaving much of the light meal provided, would cure dyspepsia. few would suffer from It long.

The only way to cure dyspepsia, which Is difficult digestion. is by giving vizor and tone to the stomach and the whole dlees- tive system. It Is therefore cured pull- tively and absolutely by lood's sarspa- rilla.

The testimonial of Frank Fay, 100 N. street, South Boston, Muss., voluntarily Aven like thousands of others, sbould lesik to a trial of this peculiar medicine. " My quece." he writes. " was a great sufferer from dyspepsia for six years. She tried many melleines in vain. She had no nppe- tire and was troutded with sour stomach and headaches. After taking two bottles df Hood's Sarsaparilla she was well."

EVERY SERVANT IS A SPY.

Diplomatie Secrets Are Impossible In Peking and They Miny Be Por- ehnsed in the sirrets.

Every servant in a foreign estab. Ishment in Peking is a spy and in- former of some legree; ">pionage is regular business; and the table talk visiting list. card-tray and serap-has- ket. with full accounts of all comings and goings, sayings and doings of any envoy or foreigner in Peking, are regularly offered for purchase hy rec. ognized purveyors of such news. One often entehes a glimpse of concentrat- ed attention on the face of the tur- baned servants standing behind din- ing-room chairs that convinces one of this feature of capital life. Diplo- matic secrets are fairly impossible in such an atmosphere. Every secret convention and concession is soon em- hinzoned abroad.

Every word the British minister ut- tered at the tsung-li-yamen was re- ported to the Russian legation with almost electric promptness, until the envoy threatened to suspend negotia. tions and withdraw. Wily concession- aries know each night where their rivals are dining and what they have said; whether any peace of written paper has passed and what has gone on at each legation in Peking and each consulate at Tientsin. Every le gation keyhole, crack and chink has its eye and ear at critical times, and by a multiplication in imagination one arrives at an idea of what the palace may be like.

EXORBITANT TIPS. THE

They Prove a Severe Drnin on People of Kmnll Menns-System Is Altogether Wrong.

The "tipping" question is one to he carefuly taken into consideration he- fore ending a round of visits or an itin- erary. From time to time discussions have arisen as to the possibility of do. ing away with the douceur. Some people have steadfastly set their faces against it so far as their own house servants are concerned, hut it is ohvi- ously impossible to put an end to the practice altogether, hecause there are some people who would always persist in buying attention and favors, what- ever might be the custom, and others who would "tip" from sheer generos- ity, hut we may well pray that some kind of restraint may be laid upon the very rich, who nowadays are so many in number.

The millionaire is no longer a rara avis, and if the very rich set the ex- ample of presenting douceurs of such magnitude that the aggregate sum of their tips while visiting here or stay. ing there is duly paragraphed, how many of those of limited income evet hope to win any respect or command any attention? The result of such ab. solutely indiscreet generosity is to make it almost impossible for those of limited means to go about at all, says the Philadelphia Ledger. How, for ex- ample, can women with .purses but sparsely lined accept invitations tn stay in the same house with the wives and daughters of men who think noth. ing of giving $5 where the less endowed can give hut 50 ments? The system is altogether wrong; and if hostesses al- low their servants to receive money from their guests they should take some means of making it known that it will be taken as a personal favor if a certain sum is not exceeded.

The prisoner was n resident of Cardington. where his mother and sister sti.l re side, and hi'led a man who was going to a wedding.

ANN'S ONLY LOVER.

n\ KEZIAH SHELTON.

"IT'S no use talking any more about it. Ann, the roads ain't broke out and can't be to ught; I know. for I'm sur veyor of this drestrict. li's drafted drend. ful, for the wind has blowed a harisenne from all points o' the cutipiuss ever sence sumup; and I just warn't dering to ask ho men to shovel out in this weather, for nothing less than a sick uw of a colli-ky hess !"

"I s'pose anybody's wife could get alone without a ductor, till the sun breaks cut a path, eh ?"

Even as the worm turns, on MI Grant's wir was stung into bitterness, as luis words recalled his own mutterings at the trouble bl going for a doctor, and his .volent be- hel that he should have receivedl the sym pathy that Was sometimes ice rdled to the sufferer!

Ilis only satisfactory heteners were the old maids of the newghborhood, and the widows.

Even they would not m.ways agree with Mr. Grant, but it mattered but little to h'm whether they dul orsnot. He -All what he thought without reward in the feelings of others, and in many respects would not he said to have made a mu del husband, though he provuled well for the physical needs of his family when he could do - without inconvenience o hunself or his property.

Mr. Grant was eter Sow to reply, so it was several seconds at least beinte he said . .Yes, generally there's somebroly that can do well enough for women i Iks' sickness, but with a good cow, or hoss, it's another thing, and you can't afford to take no reaks. it needs a man that knows his business to deal with sinck, they enst money!"

"And wives are to be han for the #-king. eh?" exclaimed the wife, exasperated, ar painful memories came hock to her mind "Wives? If a man needs a new wife, he'll find an acre full ready and winiting, he needn't inn after them, they'll invite him to ten! There, in let's stop quarreling. you're all enough not to be so jerky ng. gravatin'! Do stop sniveling, Ann: you make me ashamed of ye, a great grown.ur girl like you, to bawl so!"

"But-1-want to go-to that party- iauch : I'm dying -- to see new faces, and hear zew thing-, and have a good time." "I know why Ann wants to go, liroke in Mrs. Grant. "That young dandy cousin of Kate's, that she saw last summer at the pienie, hus mpet her mind, an' she wants to see him ag'in. I nin't in no hurry for her 10 get a stiddy beau, an' I'm glad enough that the snow's so deep that she can't go to that dance."

"You needn't worry, I ain't likely to see a beau, nor he seen by one, as close as you keep me here at home, so there!"

"You needn't begin to worry, Ann, at your age! Ef the good Lord's made any- hody for you, fences nor snowhanks ain't a. goingto keep him from finding you. 'Tain't the girls that 'go' the most, ap' have the moet fellers a-hanging round 'em that mar- ries first, nor the best."

"No." chimed in her father. " "tain't no recommendation to a likely man to have it said that the girl he's all took up with has gone buggy riding, and sot up with hal' the gay boys in the town."

"It won't never be said about med" said Ann, bitterly. "Louisann Green told Je- mima Brown the other day that she didn't know what ther was agin' me, but she did know that I didn't take with the fellers. like the Ellery girls: that there was a light every Sunday night on their parlor, and they warn't no beanties, either."

"I'm glad for once that Louistann Green told the truth; when you're older the sense will come into your head-for you're no fool, an' you'll know then why it's a compli- mient to you that folks can say such things about you, and prove it, too!"

"No, Ann, I don't feel worried about your being a old maid, you ain't a-going to pet left, onless it's best for you. Things come along about as the Lord orders."

"What's that, down by the hend in the Great roadº Looks like an ox team; can't be that the lower deestrict is a-trying to break out the road this time o' day, and the wind a-blowin' like Sam Hill! Some- body must a-got storlled and made 'em start to shovel him thru."

"It's the lower deestrict's men and teams, sure enough! I can tell Benn Boss now, by his h'ue woollen frock, tied round his waist with a red 'comforter' as usual.

"They can't get no further to-night, for that mir nex' bank's piled up too high; guess I'll go an' see who's in that red sleigh n-hind the ox teams, They're trying to help somebody through, sure's my name's John M. Grant."

"Heilo, Grant! I guess you'll have to do as the Bible says and take this stranger in! Seems to be a sort of you've got to do it whether or no; for here he is, and here's tris hose and sleigh. He was mighty sot on getting to Rakeville to-night, but it can't he did, for I can't get through here to- night. nn' the upper deestrict is wuss nor this' this is the biggest snow we've had this man: n year."

Thua it came about that the Grants had 1 guest for the night, and late into the next day, and Ann Grant enjoyed the un. expected pleasure of seeing a new face. and hearing a new voice.

It chanced-or was it ordered ?- that hit inther had been a hoyhood friend of Mr. Grant's, a great recommendation to a man of his type, who held to old notions and was afflicted with that idea that men he knew were probably more worthy than those who came to him as strangers!

Late the next afternoon, the "deestrict teams" from the upper district came down. and he prepared to follow them back, hop. ing to meet with no further delay.

He made his "dinner call" a day or two Inter on his return trip to Providence. The weighing was so unusually fine that he h ould have heen a very strange youth in- deed if he had not asked Ann to take a mow-ride of a few miles with him in his Putter
