THE MIRAGE Conditions That Malw Possible This Beautiful Illusion. About that natural phenomenon, the mlraga, much mystery clung In day* of old. but science explains It as readily as the rainbow.

A mirage may occur at any place where the denser stratum of air to placed above the lighter stratum, thus refracting the rays of light, the -common surface of the two stratum acting as a mirror.

A CONFIDING CONSTABLE The Way H. Htlpod the HousemaiRepel ths Burglar*. A good story Is told at the expense of a constable In rural England, says a writer In the London Telegraph. Not long ago a young and pretty housemaid arrived tt the big bouse of the neighborhood, and It was observed that our friend's beat often took him In that direction. At first she seemed to resent his advances, but suddenly •he changed altogether, and the course of true lore appeared to run smooth— for a time. One night he called rather later than usual. It was dark, and his fair *ne greeted him somewhat coolly, he

thought.

His doubts, however, disappeared when ‘she -suddenly declared that she would take him Into her confidence She had overheard the particulars of a plot to break Into the house and steal the plate. “Now, Jim.” she said, “here's a chance for promotion. The burglars knew .where the plate was kept so we've shifted It What 1 want yon to do Is to get Into the plate cupboard and wait till they come and open the door. Then you'll have 'em." Jim Jum|«d at the-chance and half an hour later was concealed In the cupboard. The burglars came, a* expected. and promptly got to work. The constable chuckled to himself as he beard the muffled whir of a tool on the outside of the cupboard door, and he grasped his staff and waited. After some minutes' waiting he resolved to take a cautions peep. But the door was fast, securely screwed on tbeputslde by the burglars. when Jim eventually roused the bouse and was released from his prls on the burglars and plate, together with the pretty housemaid (a confederate). had disappeared." Moreover, the constable's position took a good deal of explaining away. NEEDLEWORK NOTES.

Ten Doctors Said He Would Die "In 1903 we wrote you regard* Mag my husband, who wac suffering from heart trouble. He was superanuated by the North Georgian Conference. Ten doctors at different times said he would die. You advised Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy and Restorative Nervine; we did as advised, and improvement was apparent from the very first. He recovered and the Conference in 1904 gave him a charge. He never felt better, although he has very heavy work and does a great deal of camp meeting work. I am so glad we toot your advice and gave him the medicine, and feel that I ought to let you know of the wonderful good results from ita use.” MRS. T. S. EDWARDS, Milner, Ga. This proves what Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy will do. Get a bottle from your druggist and take it according to directions. It does not matter whether your heart is merely weak, or you have organic trouble, if it does not benefit you take the empty bottle to your druggist and gwt your money back.
