WK«re Is Teschen?
This Is the latest breakfast-table
problem. Although the town has fig-
ured prominently In European history
at various times for over a century,
Lloyd George hod to confess, when It
was mentioned at the peace confer-
ence, that he did not know exactly
where it was situated.
Nor was he alone in his lack of
knowledge. It Is doubtful If one per-
son In fifty would be able to give you
any information about the town.
And yet It was once the scene of a
great peace conference—that of 1779,
when Vergennes, the foreign minister
of France, arranged the peace of
Teschen, thereby avoiding a great Eu-
ropean war, and also, In all probabil-
ity, aecurlng the Independence of the
United States.
Right Pivot.
A darky was unloading horses and
when he had the halter hanks of sis
horses he started up the road toward
camp and the stables. Just before en
taring camp the road turned sharpl}
to the right; In fact, it made a right
angle with Its previous course.
At this point the darky with hla sir
halter hanks experienced some dlfll
culty In getting all the horses to maki
the turn and he was heard to shout
“Here, what’s the matter with yo*
all? Don’t you all know how to mak
a turn da right? Number one pivot
Pl*ot dar on de right.”—Pittsburg!

The Joy of Living
To enjoy life we must have
good health. No one oan reason-
ably hope to get muoh real pleas
ure out of life when hia bowel -
are ologged a good share of the
time and the poisons that should
be expelled are absorbed into the
system, producing headaohe and
indigestion. A few doses of
Chamberlain’s Tablets will move
the bowels, strengthen the di-
gestion and give you a chance to
realize the real joy of living, Try
it.—Adv
A. A. Crossley, Mgr
Chamberlain's Tablets
These tablets are intended es-
pecially for stomaoh troubles,
biliousness and oonstipation. If
you have any troubles of this
sort, give them a trial and real-
ize for yourself what a first class
medicine will do for you. They
only oost a quarter.—Adv

why you insist on buying
meat here. The oleanliness

thing. The prompt and
oourteous servioe for an-
other. And as we sell only
choice meats, he cannot go
very tar wrong in his selec-
tion of meat for the table.
