In three weeks I was like a new woman, my appetite had increased, I felt buoyant, light and happy and without an ache or pain. - Peruna is a reliable family medicine." nights ago in a Sixth avenue electric car, reports the New York Times: "Do you know, I. think she Is abso- lutely the meanest woman I ever knew?" i "Why, what Is the matter with , nerr j ' "Matter? Why, everything. She floes nothing' bGt borrow from morn- - i lng to night. You know. She has the ' apartment just across the hall from us, and the day she moved in she setarted j by borrowing an egg from mother. The next day she borrowed a cup of sugar, and since that time she has borrowed everything from a piece of butter to the baby carriage, and has never njado any attempt to return a siugla. thing. I have often told mother that I was going to borrow some of the things back, but she has always forbidden me. Last night, however,. 1 had to write some letters, and I had no ink. It was raining very hard, and mother was out, so I resolved that rather than go out in the rain I would disobey orders and ask our neighbor to let m& have her ink. I asked her, and what I do you think she said? 'I haven't -- any ink, but I'll let you take my shoe pol- ish. It is just as good. It dries quick- ly but you can write just as well with it.' Oh, I never. met a meaner wom- an In my life!" Beautiful Marks of Staple. Nobody seems' to know what cause it Is which produces those delicate and beautiful lines in maple, known as bird's-ey- e. Some people think they come from the hundreds of little branches which shoot out over the I trunk of the tree as soon as a clearing is made around it. Expert timbermen say that Is not the ease. The only way to tell a bird's-ey- e maple tree is to cut it. There are ho outward signs by which one can judge. The Railroad, Gazette tells a story of the late George M. Pull- man. Many years ago he was offered a mahogany log for $3,000, to be cut into veneers. It was supposed to be a very fine piece of wood, but this could only be determined by cutting 'it. He de- clined 'the offer, but agreed to take the log cut into veneers for what it was worth. The owner had It sawed and was paid $7,000 for his veneers. Any one who can discover the secret of de- termining the Interior nature of wood from the outside will have a fortune. Eggs-Actl- y.

Drew, of Louisville, thus describes an amusing incident which occurred in New Orleans In the spring of 1894. "I met Eugene Field on one of his pilgrimages for old bottles, pew- ter ware! and any old thing in the junk line. Some friends of mine introduced our party to Mr. Field and Wilson Bar- rett and members of his company, then playing an engagement in New Or- leans. Mr. Field's greatest delight was in teasing Miss Maude Jeffries, a Mis- sissippi girl, then leading lady in Mr. Barrett's company. She was very sen- sitive and . modest, and it delighted Field greatly when, he could playfully" embarrass her. One day I found him in his room busy on --the floor pasting large sheets of brown paper together. He had written a poem to Miss Jeffries in the center of a large sheet of this wrapping paper in his characteristic small hand indeed, much smaller than usual. On the edges of this sheet 1 found him pasting others of equal size, so that the whole, when complete, made a single "sheet about eight feet square. This he carefully folded up to fit an improvised envelope about the size of a Mardi Gras souvenir, then being distributed about the city. " With the joyousness of a boy about to play a rank, he chased, downstairs at the noon hour, when he knew Miss Jeffries was at lunch with Mr. Barrett in the cafe of the Grunewald. Calling a waiter, he sent the huge envelope in to her table. She glanced at it a mo ment, and then gradually drew the package from Its envelope, while Field and I stpod watching behind the en- trance. It spread all over. the table as she continued to unfold the enor- mous sheet, and its rustle attracted .the attention of nearly every one in the room. When it had spread itself all over Mr. Barrett who, meanwhile, was laughing heartily. Miss Jeffries discov- ered the poem in Field's hand, and, al- though blushing crimson, joined in the laughter, for she knew -- he was some- where about,v enjoying "her discomfit- ure."

Miss Delia Janveau, Globe Hotel, Ottawa, Ont., is from one of the oldestand best known French Canadian fam ilies in Canada. In a recent letter toThe Peruna Medicine Co., of Columbus, Ohio, Bhe says:

"Last spring my blood seemed clogged up, my digestion poor, my headached and 1 felt languid and tired all the time. My physician prescribed forme, but a friend advised me to try. Peruna. I tried it and am pleased to statethat I found it a wonderful cleanser and purifier of the system. . In threeweeks I was like a new woman, my appetite had increased, I felt buoyant,light and happy and without an ache or pain. - Peruna is a reliable familymedicine."

j by borrowing an egg from mother. Thenext day she borrowed a cup of sugar,and since that time she has borrowedeverything from a piece of butter tothe baby carriage, and has never njadoany attempt to return a siugla. thing.I have often told mother that I wasgoing to borrow some of the thingsback, but she has always forbiddenme. Last night, however,. 1 had towrite some letters, and I had no ink.It was raining very hard, and motherwas out, so I resolved that rather thango out in the rain I would disobeyorders and ask our neighbor to let m&

have her ink. I asked her, and whatI do you think she said? 'I haven't --any

Is which produces those delicate andbeautiful lines in maple, known asbird's-ey- e. Some people think theycome from the hundreds of littlebranches which shoot out over the

I trunk of the tree as soon as a clearingis made around it. Expert timbermensay that Is not the ease. The only wayto tell a bird's-ey- e maple tree is to cutit. There are ho outward signs by whichone can judge. The Railroad, Gazettetells a story of the late George M. Pull-man. Many years ago he was offered amahogany log for $3,000, to be cut intoveneers. It was supposed to be a veryfine piece of wood, but this could onlybe determined by cutting 'it. He de-

clined 'the offer, but agreed to take thelog cut into veneers for what it wasworth. The owner had It sawed andwas paid $7,000 for his veneers. Anyone who can discover the secret of de-

termining the Interior nature of woodfrom the outside will have a fortune.

V He Needed Clothes.. A Western Senator brought to theCapitol a good story about MinisterBowen, which the minister himself re-

"The only reply was a rather painfulone, but, nevertheless, fully truthful!

. It was because I hadn't the clothes."Thereupon i . Bowen told how he

Lord Houghton's epigram on "Sor-dello- ,"

though it has often gone therounds, is worth recalling. Said LordHoughton, then only "Dicky" Milnes:"There are but two lines in 'Sordello'I can understand the first and last'Who will may hear Sordello's storytold,' and 'Who would-hat- h heard Sor-

dello's story told,' and both are false."Senator Hoar was showing some

Massachusetts visitors about Washing-ton, D.

"Yes," replied Hoar,"by his practice and his practices."

Cyrus D. Drew, of Louisville, thusdescribes an amusing incident whichoccurred in New Orleans In the springof 1894. "I met Eugene Field on oneof his pilgrimages for old bottles, pew-ter ware! and any old thing in the junkline. Some friends of mine introducedour party to Mr. Field and Wilson Bar-rett and members of his company, thenplaying an engagement in New Or-

leans. Mr. Field's greatest delight wasin teasing Miss Maude Jeffries, a Mis-

sissippi girl, then leading lady in Mr.Barrett's company. She was very sen-

sitive and . modest, and it delightedField greatly when, he could playfully"embarrass her. One day I found himin his room busy on --the floor pastinglarge sheets of brown paper together.He had written a poem to Miss Jeffriesin the center of a large sheet of thiswrapping paper in his characteristicsmall hand indeed, much smaller thanusual. On the edges of this sheet 1

found him pasting others of equal size,so that the whole, when complete,made a single "sheet about eight feetsquare. This he carefully folded upto fit an improvised envelope about thesize of a Mardi Gras souvenir, thenbeing distributed about the city.

" Withthe joyousness of a boy about to playa rank, he chased, downstairs at thenoon hour, when he knew Miss Jeffrieswas at lunch with Mr. Barrett in thecafe of the Grunewald. Calling awaiter, he sent the huge envelope into her table. She glanced at it a moment, and then gradually drew thepackage from Its envelope, while Fieldand I stpod watching behind the en-

trance. It spread all over. the tableas she continued to unfold the enor-mous sheet, and its rustle attracted .theattention of nearly every one in theroom. When it had spread itself allover Mr. Barrett who, meanwhile, waslaughing heartily. Miss Jeffries discov-ered the poem in Field's hand, and, al-

though blushing crimson, joined in thelaughter, for she knew -- he was some-

where about,v enjoying "her discomfit-ure." ' :
