About 3.000 cigars are sold on board, but many more are smoked. Two liundred pounds of toilet soap is sup- plied by the steamship company. One of the odd sights to be seen on the liouble-decked Inman pier soon after the airi-.-al of the "queen of the ocean grey- hounds" is the great stacks of soiled linen which are being assorted by about a dozen stewanis. Here is the wash list for a single trip Napkins, 8,300 table-cloths, 180 sheets, o,600 pillow cases, 4,500 towels, IC,200, and dozens of blankets and counter- panes. Although the list, is very short, it requires four large two-horse trucks to carry the wash to the Inman Company's stfeiiln laundry in Jevsy City. In less than a week it will be back in the lockers of the linen rooms, which are in charge of a reg'.ilar. linen keeper. There is no washing (1( ne alx)ard.

Birds During Courtsliip. .A.t the season of birds' courtship, when the conditions of life are most favourable, vitality is at its maximum, and naturally it is then that the proficiency in all kinds of lUi-ncing antics, aerial and terrestrial, ap- pears greatest, and that melody attains it highest perfection. This applies chiefly to birds, but even among birds there are ex- ceptions. The love-excitement is doubtless pleasurable to them, and it takes the form in which keenly pleasurable emotions are hiibitually expressed, although not frequent- ly with variations due to the greater intens- ity of the feeling. In some migrants the ;iiiiles arrive before the females, and no soon- 01- have they recovered from the effects of tlieir journey than they burst out into rap- turous singing these are not love-strains, since the females have not yet arrived, and pairing time is perhaps a month distant -.heir singing merely expresses their over- ficwiug gladness. The forest at that season is vocal, not only with the fine melody of the true songsters, but with hoarse ca wings, jiiercing cries, shrill duets, noisy choruses, drummings, boomiugs, thrills, wood-tap- pings â€" every sound with which dififerent species express the glad impulse and birds like the parrot, that only exert their power- ful voices in screamingsâ€" because "they can do no other" â€" then scream their loudest. "iVhen courtship begins it has in many cases theefi'ectof increasing the beauty of the performance, giving added sweetness, nerve, and brilliance to the song, and freedom and grace to the gestures and motions. â€" [W.

"AEoaiingFarce," is the term we often hear affiled to the modem trial-by-jury. The trial of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, by a jury of thousands of women afflicted with "female complaints," has been no farce, for it has established the fact that this remedy is a specific for all chronic weaknesses peculiar to the sex. The only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under a posUive guarantee, from the manufacturers, Chat it wiH give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded. This guarantee has been printed on the bottle-wrapper, and faithfully carried out for many years. Heâ€" "Nice night, isn't it " Sheâ€" "Yes, good night." Nothing Like It Every day swells the volume of proof that as a specific for all Blood diseases, nothing equals Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov- ery. Remember, this is an old established remedy with a record It has been weighed in the balance and found fulfilling every claim It has been tested many years in thousands of cases with flattering success For Throat and Lung troubles. Catarrh, Kidney disease, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Sick Headache and all disorders resulting from improverished blood, there is nothing like Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery â€" world-renowned and ever growing in favor.

The old lady who replied, when asked how her liver was, " God bless me, I never heard that there was such a thing in the. house," was noted for her amiability. Prometheus, when chained to a rock, might as well have pretended to be happy, as the man who is chained to a diseased liver. For poor Pro- mentheus, there was no escape, but by the use of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pel- lets, the disagreeable feelings, irritable tem- per, constipation, indigestion, dizziness and sick headache, which are caused by a dis- eased liver, promptly disappear.
