GREEN REPORTER HAD NOSE
FOR NEWS
A shy young man went into the
office of a provincial English ' paper
and asked for a job as a reporter.
He was told to go out and skirmish
for items and to write them up in his
best stylo. He turned up bright and
early the next morning and submit
ted this:
"Yesterday we saw a sight which
froze our. blood with horror, A
cabman, driving down Clark street
at a rapid pace, was very near ru'n-
ing over a nurse and two children. '
".There would liave been one of the
most heartrending catastrophes ever

recorded had not the nurse with
wonderful forethought, left the chil
dren at home before she went out
and providentially stepped into a
chemist's shop just before the cab
passed.
"Then, too, the cabman, just be
fore reaching the crossing, thought
of something he had forgotten and,
turning about, drove in the opposito
direction.
"Had it not been for this wonder
ful concurrence of favoring circum
stances a doting father, a loving
mother, and affectionate brothers and
sisters would have been plunged into
deepest woe and most unutterable
funeral expenses."
He got the job at once. Fourth

The continued eruptions of the
impurities of the blood through the
skin of the face and other parts of
the body in the form of pimples,
blackheads, hoils, fleshworms, ecze
ma, blotches, blemishes, scabby
crusts, scrofula, salt rheum, simple
and chronic acne, poisoned skin, red
skin or rash or spots, ulcers, car
buncles, etc., if allowed to continue
indefinitely, will eventually destroy
the skin so as to permanently dis
figure your face and body. The
glands in the skin, containing fluids
and fatty secretions necessary for
the nourishment of the skin, are
often destroyed by continued erup
tions, thus causing fissures, cracks
and scars, and leaving the skin in a
dried and shrunken condition.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers have
made a sure and rapid cure for all
skin diseases possible. They do not
contain any poison, mercury, drug
opiate or cheap alcohol so common
in most skin and blood treatments.
Calcium Wafers contain in concen
trated form the most effective work
ing power of any: purifier ever dis
covered Calcium Sulphide. They
also 'contain golden seal, quassia,
eucalyptus, belladona, and tho
vegetable alternatives and laxatives,
all of which are essential to make
rich, red, healthy blood.
Calcium Wafers are -in dry, com
pressed form little tablets easy
to carry around and they can not
lose their medicinal power by evap
oration as so many liquid medicines
do. They are coated with chocolate,
are easy and pleasant to take, will
cure any form of skin or blood dis
ease and will leave your skin in a
perfectly smooth and healthy condi
tion. Why should you go around any
longer with a disgusting looking
face and have strangers stare at you
and your friends avoid you, when
you might just as well have a nice,
smooth, attractive face. Stuart's
Calcium Wafers have in many cases
cured bolls and pimples in five days.

WHEN LINCOLN WAS HANDSOME
"As I was savin'. I wna un in
Bloomington that night. Nobody
that didn't hear that speech ever
knows what Abraham Lincoln could
do. Lots of 'em will tell you ho was
homely," writes Ida M. Tarbell, in tho
American Magazine. "Seems to me
sometimes that's about all some folks
around hero has to tell about Abra
ham Lincoln. 'Yes, I knowed him,'
they say. 'He was tho homeliest
man in Sangamon county,' Well,
now, don't you make no mistake Thn
folks that don't tell you nuthin' but,
mat never Knowed Mr. Lincoln. Meb-
be they'd seen him; but they never
knowed him. He wa'n't homely.
There's no denyin' he was long and
lean, and he didn't always stand
straight and he wasn't pertikeler
about his clothes, but that night up
to BloominKton in ten minutes after
Jie struck that platform, I tell you
he was the handsomest man I ever
see."

, A KING'S POCKETS
Liko every fiian who values the
look of his clothes King Edward car
ries very little in his pockets' besides
a handkerchief. In his waistcoat
pocket he carries a gold pencil case, a
cigar cutter, a little pass key, a gold
watch, carefully regulated by Green
wich time, and half a dozen sov
ereigns. In his coat pocket he carries
a tiny notebook and In the winter ho
puts his gloves in the pocket of his
topcoat. This king never carries a
cigar-case, except a gold case which
holds one cigar, but he always has
a small box of lozenges. Unlike his
nephew, the kaiser, he never carries
a fountain pen in his pocket. Kan

ANOTHER NATURE PAKE
In an attempt to escape from her
clutches a mouse jumped into the
open mouth of a cat owned by Prof.
C. W, Treat, of Lawrence County
university. Frightened by the unex
pected turn of events the cat gulped
down the little animal, which, ac
cording to Prof. Treat, remained
alive in the cat's stomach for some
time after. For more than an hour
the cat was in evident distress.

One hundred and twenty-five mil
lions for the navy will be the recom

twenty-five millions over the last ap
