Among the Babylonians tying the knot was part of the marriage ceremony.

Malaga tirnpes Are Misnamed, Malaga Is supposed to be the home of Malaga grapes, but In that particular It Is largely a misnomer. Malaga grapes used to flourish in that vicinity many yeRrs ago, but there was a blight that killed off most of the vines, and that special brand of fruit Is now chiefly grown elsewhere In Spain. Verdict Meant Denth. Aldrich, May of the best doctors In the vicinity have been in attendance on Mrs.

Mollis Moore of this place, who has been suffering with a severe case of nervousness and kidney disease. Kach of them told her that she would die. Hearing of Dodd's Kidney rills, she began to use them, and instantly noticed a change for the better. Her improvement has been continuous since then. She says that the disease first manifested itself by the appearance of dark spots floating before her eyes.

Her nerves were so bad that many times they would collapse completely, and she would fall down as If shot. The fact that Dodtl's Kidney rills saved her after four doctors had given her up, has caused no end of talk in this neighborhood, and all are loud in their praises of this new remedy Dodd's Kidney Tills which is curing Bo many hitherto incurable cases, in this state and elsewhere.

There is an organized system of imposition in Indian relics. Very few of those found In the cities were ever seen by redskins; they are made by wholesale for purpose of deceiving the credulous.

One firm In North Carolina does a large business in this line. The fraud they practice is almost impossible to detect so thoroughly have they mastered the art. Recently this firm tried to palm off on Rev. J. H.

Frazee, D. of Knoxville, who is a collector, some of their goods, but without success. Dr. Frazee received a letter from the firm which mentioned that his name had been recommended by a prominent physician of Knoxville as a person who would likely wish to buy some relics. They represented that they had been making extensive collections of all kinds of relics and hud disposed of some, but wished to go out of the business, and therefore would sell relics on hand cheap.

The letter said a box of samples would be sent, which was done. Dr. Frazee examined the contents of the box and finding nothing that he did not already have returned them. Shortly afterward a man In the west who had heard of Dr. Frazee as a collector of Indian relics, wrote him, asking that he might put him in the way of getting some Tennessee relics.

Dr. Frazee, having given little atten tion to the specimens from North Carolina, and not detecting the fraud, recommended to his western friend this firm as having represented that it had some relics for sale, in a short time the western man answered and branded the North Carolina firm as flagrant frauds. He had already fallen into their trap. He said the relics he had secured from the bogus dealers of North Carolina were difficult to detect from the real. He had the relics investigated by prominent collectors in the west, who could not determine accurately as to the fraud.

The relics were then sent to government experts, who Bald the whole collection was bogus. The North Carolina tricksters have probably done au extensive business. Chicago Chronicle. HIS MATRIMONIAL RECORD. Seventeenth Wife Shook Anderson VTheti She Connted Her Predecessor.

George Washington Anderson, the confessed husband of seventeen wives, most of whom are Btlll living, has Just been sent by the seventeenth to the Pleasants county poorhouse. West Virginia, while she attempts to recover a little of the wealth that she gave up to marry him, and sues for a divorce. Anderson was 68 years old and his bride 71 when they eloped to Parkers-burg bust month and were married there. They had known each other only two days, but In that time he had learned the leBson he had so often and so easily learned before, and she, seeing in him, no doubt, the realization of a lifetime's longing, accepted him as soon as he proposed. He represented that ho was drawing a pension.

She was also receiving a pension, but as he whh Hrowlnir tunnort frnm thn government she willingly gave up hers for him. After the honevmrmn wua over the old man fell ill. and the wife's devotion to him was remarkable. But as time wore on she began to suspect that he was not all he represented himself to be. The time to fill out vouchers for his pension came an! went and he neglocted to attend to his.

She began a search through his pockets after the papers, and the first thing she found was his written confession that he had been married 16 tlmea before he saw her. That took all the glamor of the married life which she had hoped would bring her happiness, and when he added that nearly all of the preceding 16 are nlive and well she bundled him bodily out of the house and had him taken to the poorhouse, where she would no longer have to support him. She then Instructed her lawyer to bring suit tor divorce. Chicago Journal. lntoslrmtlng: OltlelsnM of Two Men.

Writing In the Critic of certain qualities of Brandar Matthews and Harry Thurston Peck, "A Professor of Ijat-In" says: "Professor Blander Matthews and Harry Thurston Peck possess all the properties of a high-grade intellectual intoxicant. One reads them to the points of dizziness, gets quarrelsome as the draughts go down, and suffers the inevitable headache after it is all over; nor has any Keeley yet appeared with an effective remedy. And so when these two authorities fall upon one another, one feels an lmm-dite desire to have a hand in the scrimmage. In favor of one or the other, both or neither, as the case may be. Vanderbllt Found tile Coin.

This is what they say: "Wearrived In Calgary about the 20th of December and although we had left winter In Minnesota and Manitoba, we were surprised to find beautiful warm weather at this point, quite equal to what we have In May in Minnesota.

There was no snow nor trr.ee winter to be seen, and the climate was really splendid. Horses, cattle and sheep were running out. In prime condition, with plenty of feed on the prairie, and really better than that of our3 stabled in the south. We are Impressed with this country as cie of the finest mixed farming countries we have ever seen. The immense tracts of fertile lands well sheltered and abundantly watered leave nothing to be desired.

"Leaving Alberta we returned east and visited the Yorkton district in Assinlbota. We drove out about ten miles at this point and were highly pleased with the splendid samples of grain we were able to see wheat yielding 25 bushels, oats 60 bushels. Roots were also good specimens. Krom what we have seen, we have decided to throw In our lot with the York-toners- satisfied that this part of tlio country will furnish good opportunities for anyone anxious to make the best of a really good country."
