INTESTINAL TROUBLES.
Colitis. Its Causes and the Way I

Colitis is an inflammation of the
colon or large intestine. It occurs;
in several form-. Simple catarrlm! ;
; colitis is a not uncommon afTectior.. i
It may arie from the same causs
I as catarrh of other mucous mem
branes as of tin- bronchial tubes
for example or it may be caused by
the presence in the intestine of in-
digestible or partly decomposed
food. A not infrequent cause is
constipation the matters which
should 1ki discharged being retained
and by their presence setting up an
irritation.
The mo-t frequent symptom is
diarrhea. This usually conies on
suddenly and is watery in character
often tinged with blood. Associ-
ated with this is considerable ab-

along its upper border.
The appetite is poor the tongue

common and vomiting sometimes
occurs. There is usually more or

ferent places until you are certain

She Didn't Count.
A writer to illustrate one view of
rharitv. said that two old men were
after dinner. The host rang the
bell and an old woman appeared.
"Confound you stupid!" said the
host. "Didn't I tell you I wanted
the Scotch? Take this back and
bring what I asked for you old
fool !" 'Tome come" said the
guest after the old woman had hur-
ried away in a great fright. "Come
come my friend don't you think
you are rather too sharp with your
old servant r" "Oh" said the other
"she's not a servant. She's only a
poor relation I'm keeping out of
charity.'' The guest looked relieved.
"Tha. alters the case of coure" he
said.
The Interest Worked Backward.
"Look er heah man" said Mr.
Green who had lent Deacon Foxie

on 'leben months. Ef yo' doan pav
me right erway I gwine mek de sher

"Mr. Green" said the deacon im-
pressively "I's s'prised at yo ig-
n'rance. I sho' is! Doan yo' know

Mr. Green is still figuring. Lip-

Every one knows how hard it is to
turn a narrow and perfectly even
hem on a table napkin. Put the
hemnier attachment on the sewing
machine but do not use thread.
Just run the napkins through the
hemmer without sewing them and
they are creased as narrow as de-
sired and they are all ready for
hand sewing.

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
Why the Old Neo.ro Charfld With
Stealing a Hog Pleaded Guilty.
A lawver who had some business
town not long ago tells of an amus-
ing case which he witnessed tried.
A negro was charged with stealing
! a hog. The actual merit of the
I evidence of the dozen or so witness
es amounted to half of them rather
thinking that he had stolen the
shoat and the other half sort of
i having an idea that he hadn't. The
old judge waved them aside impa-
tiently lighted his corncob pipe
and addressed the prisoner.
"Look hyabi Moe" he demand-
ed. "Did yo' steal that hog or
didn't yo'''"
The negro fumbled his wool hat
and rolled his eyes.
"Fo' (iord. Mars Henry" he said
earnestly. "Ah nebber stole dat horg
but" as a disbelieving frown gath-
ered on the judge's brow "ef yo'
kinder thinks Ah done stole him
Mars Henry an' gwine gib me six
months foh lyin' lack yo' done be-
fo Ah radder lie 'bout hit an' 'fess
Ah did steal hit an' get two months
