There is nothing marvelous in the fact that Hood’s Sarsaparilla should cure so many diseases. When you remember that a majority of the disorders “flesh is heir to” are due to impure or poisonous conditions of the blood, and that Hood’s Sarsaparilla is an effective and radical blood purifier, the whole thing is ex plained. Besides its blood purifying qualities Hood’s Sarsaparilla contains the best known aegotable stomach tonics, diure tics. kidney remedies and liver invigor ants, and is thus an excellent specific for all disorders of these organs, as well as for low conditions of the system, or that tired feeling. WHEELS. They An Hnw Heard la a Wealthy City of Mexico. "In the city of Catorce, in Mexico, the sound of carriage wheels never has been heard," said a traveler, late ly. “The eity is located in the moun tains eight miles from the railroad station. In order to reach it an ex tremely perilous ride up the moun tains must be made. For that reason but few foreign people have ever vis ited the town. As a result, at Catoroe is found the Mexican people in all their primitive purity. They know but little of the outside world. Its inhabitants are engaged in silver mining. Thousands of dollars of bul lion is secured yearly. Miles of tun nels extend in all directions, and thousands of dollars have been ex pended on the mines. “The streets of Catorce run up and down the mountains often at an angle of forty-five degrees, making the use of wheeled vehicles impossible. All transportation is done by the borros or by the Cargedores, who are able to carry great weights on their backs suspended by bands from around their foreheads. With 300 pounds on their backs these men will move along on a trot. The only level spot of ground in Catorce is its plaza, which is very beautiful, as also is its cathedral, which is richly decorated with silver and precious stones. Catorce, which is the Spanish word meaning fountain, got its name, so the legend runs, from fourteen bandits who discovered the rich deposits of silver in 1780, and at once made it their headquarters. It is indeed a wonderful town, fabulously rich, grand in scenery, and interesting by reason of the life and habits of its people. AN ENGLISH PARTY WHIP. On* of the Queer Salaried Poeltlone la the House of Commons. Reverting to the duties of a whip and patronage secretary, in English politics, it is an astonishing fact that gentlemen of birth and social position can be found to fill the post. The junior whip's duties are not only oner ous, but irksome. They sit or stand in the outer lobby of the house from 8:30 to 12:30 at night and they ask every member who passes where he is going, whether he is paired, and when he will be back. If he is not paired they have either to find a pair for him or to prevent him from pass ing out by coaxing or threats, the former for preference. When their party is in these gentlemen have to attend to their office from 12 to 3. Their hours of duty are therefore from 11 a. m. to 13 p. m., or thirteen hours, with intervals for lunch and dinner, and this they do for £1,000 a year. When their party is out they do it, minus their office work, for nothing. In addition to keeping an eye on his juniors, the chief whip, who has £2,000 a year, deals with the members on their more touchy side. It is he who practically distributes ribbons and titles and sees that cards of in vitation are sent to this man and that —that no one is given undue prefer ence—a delicate duty which requires much tact and skill. Proper Pride. “And you say you will not have a eork leg?” asked the doctor after cutting off the leg of a man who had met with an accident. “Sure, that’s pfwhat I said.

Lord Rosebery's succession to the premiership serves to eall attention to the toot that whereas during the first decade after the Franco-German war, and throughout the major part of the second, the destinies of Europe were controlled by monarohs and statesmen of advanced age, their power is now vested In the hands of comparatively young men. This is, indeed, the epoch of youth. Lord Beocousfleld, Prince Gortchakoff, Prince Bismarek, M. Thiers, Depretis, Gladstone and the Danish statesman, Estrupp, have all either died or with drawn into private life, and the same may be said of their masters. The German emperor, who is undoubtedly the man at the helm in the Teutonio empire, is only 33 years old; the prince of Bulgaria is 33, the emperor of Russia 49, while the king of Wurtem berg, the king of Portugal and the king of Greece are all young men. Still more youthful are the queen of Holland, the young king of Servla and the little king of Spain. fLs re gards statesmen, we find younft men, such as Lord Rosebery and Mr. Asquith, occupying the principal offi ces of the British crown. The Austrian prime minister, Prinos Windlsch graetz, is under 30, and Cardinal Rompolla, the papal secretary of state, is barely one or two years over that age. M. Caslmlr-Perrler, the Frenoh prime minister, is about 48 years of age, while M. Dupuy, his predecessor, and now president of the chamber of deputies, is about three years younger. Many other names might be added to the list, but the above will suffice to show that we are living in the golden age of youth, and that while age and experience are at a discount youth and enthusiasm are above pa*-. TRAPPED AND POUQHT A BEAR. A Mountaineer’* Desperate Struggle With an Infuriated Beaet. A mountaineer named Jere Sands had a terrible conflict with a bear in GreaSy Core, near Johnson City, Tenn., recently. The animal had been entrapped during the night, and when Sands came upon the scene he went directly up to the bear before making an effort to shoot It. He was standing a few feet away when the infuriated beast made a lunge, broke its fetters and was upon him in an in* stant. Before the surprised hunter eould get his gun in position the bear seized his left arm in its crushing jaws, the weapon dropped from the hand of the mangled limb and a bat tle of death began. In a moment the mountaineer was in the dread embrace of his an tagonist • They fell to the ground in the struggle which ensued, and rolling over and over they went down the mountain side thirty yards and dropped off a ledge of rocks twelve feet sheer fall. The bear happened to fall underneath and during the momentary shock which followed the half dead man managed to draw from his belt his hunting knife, which fortunately had remained undisturbed, and plunged it with all his strength into the animal's neck, severing the jugular vein. This ended the battle. The bear soon re leased his hold and was dead, but his slayer was too badly hurt to leave the scene of the struggle. His oontlnued absence caused his friends to go in search of him. They found the vic tor covered with blood and pillowed upon his shaggy victim nursing his mangled arm. The bear was one of largest ever killed in that region. THEY DIDN’T FRATERNIZE. The Old Circus Han Had to Olve Up the I.lon and Lamb Effort. “The hardest thing to train a wild beast to do is to perform with a weak, defenseless animal,” remarked A. V. Hutchins, an old circus and menag erie hand, who had deserted the arena and ring for mercantile pur suits, as a commercial traveler. “I remember once, several years ago, an effort being made to persuade a very docile lion to lie down with a lamb. The idea was certainly a good one but it took several lambs and also several weeks before the lion, which was willing to jump through a burn ing hoop, sham death on being shot, etc., could be persuaded to allow a lamb to enter his den with impunity. Twice he killed a lamb in the pres ence of his trainer, and the second time he nearly killed the trainer, who rather recklessly tried to get away the carcass. ' Finally the lion would tolerate a lamb in its den just as long as the keeper stood over it with an iron bar. But the effort was so evi dently forced and the performance was so utterly lacking in smoothness and interest that it was abandoned after two or three attempts.” Hen and Yellow. "It is an odd fact,” said Anson Bry son, of Chicago, “but a true one, that men, as a rule, do not like yellow. I saw this fact set forth in a paper the other day, and until then it did not occur to me that it was so. But ask your men friends what they think of dresses of yellow, and they will object if they think about the thing at all. A woman, to my notion, makes a mis take to put on a yellow dress if she is setting her cap for the average man.” The Duchess Milk*. The duchess of Hamilton has had a large stable built for her cows and goes there daily, according to English papers, to milk her favorites. She also makes the butter, it is said, which is used on her table when she has guests. The stable is built of marble, and cost a large sum of money. The duchess has had gloves made es pecially to use when milking the cows, in order that she may not soil her fingers. ’ Columbus Discovered America, We Keep ItCtaan IIS!
