CHICAGO, ILL. CAMELS OUTDONE. ' Creatures That Go For Extended Pe riods Without Drinking. Other creatures than the camel are able to get along for extended periods without drinking. Sheep in the south western deserts go for forty to sixty days in winter without drink, grazing on the green, succulent vegetation of that season. Peccaries in the desert of Sonora live in little dry hills where there Is no natural water for long peri ods. They cannot possibly find water— in fact, for months at a time. The only moisture they can obtain comes from roots and the fruits of cacti, but the most extraordinary case is that of the pocket mouse, one of the common ro dents of the desert. Xhis little creature, by the way, has a genuine fur lined “pocket” on the outside of its cheek. When it is hungry it takes food from this pocket with its paw, just as a man would pull a ham sandwich from his pocket. One of these mice has been kept for three years with no other food than the mixed bird seed of commerce. During this period it had not a taste of either water or green food. Other ex perimenters have found, in fact, that these mice in captivity refuse such treats, not seeming to know that water is good to drink. The bird seed put be fore this mouse contained not more than 10 per cent of moisture, which is less than is necessary for digestion. Stuff so dry as this cannot even be swallowed until It is moistened by saliva. Yet this remarkable mouse gave nothing but his time to.the inter ests of science. He suffered nothing in health or spirits during his captivity.— Brooklyn Eagle. A Grim Tragedy is daily enacted, in thousandsof homes, as Death claims, in each one, another victim of Consumption or Pneumonia. But when Coughs and Colds are prop erly treated, the tragedy is averted. F, G. Huntley, of Oaklandon, Ind., writes: “My wife had the consump tion, and three doctors gave her up. Finally she took Dr. King’s New Dis covery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, which cured her, and to-day she is well and strong.” It kills the germs of all diseases. One dose re lieves.

Some of them look like thick pile curtains, somber in hue, of course, but famously suggestive of warmth. And with even only a moderate Imagination one may go to and fro among the barrels fancying the pendent shapes overhead are dusky stalactites instead of the airy next to nothing as they really are. If you hold your candle high enough you may shrivel a few yards of the fabric. But that were truly a shocking deed of vandalism, for, though no layman can understand why this dismal tapestry is reverenced as It is, his ignorance will not be held sufficient excuse for his crime—Chambers’ Journal. Brennan has bale ties for sale. What a "Hurricane" la, “Hurricane” is the old Spanish name for a West Indies cyclone, but it Is used by modern meteorologists to des ignate a long continued wind of ex treme violence. In Beaumont’s scale the different winds are classed as “light,” “gentle,” “fresh” and “strong” breezes. The next Is a “stiff” breeze, then a “strong” wind and then we strike the “gales.” The “gales” run through three or four classes, the last merging into the “hurricane.” Very Low Rates to Lincoln, Neb., Via the North-Western Line.

Impoverished soil, like impov erished blood, needs a proper fertilizer. A chemist by analyz ing the soil can tell you whn + fertilizer to use for different products. If your blood is impoverished your doctor will tell you what you need to fertilize it and give it the rich, red corpuscles that are lacking in it. It may be you need a tonic, but more likely you need a concentrated fat food, apd fat is the element lacking in your system. There is no fat food that is so easily digested and assimi lated as Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil It will nourish and strengthen the body when milk and cream fail to do it. Scott’s Emulsion is always the same; always palatable and always beneficial where the body is wasting from any cause, either in children or adults. We will send you a sample free.

SYMPATHETIC LISTENERS The Help They May Afford to Slow and Indifferent Talker*. At no time more than when a thought | is struggling toward Expression should ; a friend bear with a friend’s iuilrml i ties. A deep sympathy should he pour ed out with lavish affection about the one who is seriously striving to say some real thing. In this atmosphere of patient, sympathetic Intelligence the inept word, the crude phrase, the whol ly inadequate expression will be en abled to do their work, and the thought transference will be effected; the thought will be safely lodged In the mind of the other, slightly bruised lu transit, but intact and intelligible. With an “I kuow what you mean,” “Exactly,” or “Go on; I understand,” much help may be rendered, und at last when the thinker of the thought has placed his friend in possession and by reason of this effort has entered in to fuller possession of it himself, the conversation is in a way to begin. Then lavish upon the elaboration of the thought all the beauties that can bo woven out of words — precision, bal ance, music—but let us, dear lovers of language, remember to be discreetly gentle and listen with averted glance while the thought Is still in negligee.— Atlantic. The Grip. “Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our selvss. ” No one can realize the suffer ing attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual ex perience. There is probably no dis ease that causes so much physical or mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain’s plough Remedy. , Among the tens ot thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered.

You already have the earth at your feet. What you want Is a three or four story bouse over your head.”—Wash ington Star. Why He Loved Her. Minister — Bobby, do you love your teacher? Bobby (six years old)—Yes, sir. Minister—That’s right. Now tell me why you love her. Bobby —Be cause the Bible says we must love our enemies.—Philadelphia Inquirer. What DI.tlnHTut.he. Man. The difference between man and the so called “lower animals” is that he alone cooks his food and wears arti ficial clothes. And these are the two that injure his health!—St Louis Globo Democrat Danger of a Cold and How to Avoid Them. More fatalities have their origin in or result from a cold ttian from any other cause. This fact alone should make people more careful as there is ne danger whatever from a cold when it is properly treated in the beginning. For many years Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has been reoognized as the most prompt and effectual medicine in use for this disease. It acts on na ture's plan, loosens the cough, relieves the lungs, opens the secretions and aids nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition. Sold by P. C. Corrigan. M*rrl*fe by Proxy. In Holland, says a Scotch paper, marriage by proxy Is allowed. This Is the so called “marriage by the glove” and is usually put in practice by a Dutchman who is sojourning abroad and, wanting a wife, Is too poor or too far off to return home for one. In Buch a case he writes home to a law yer, who selects one conformable t* the requirements of his client. If the gen tleman approves he next sends the law yer a soiled left hand glove and a power of attorney, which settles the business. A friend marries the woman by proxy, and she is thereafter prompt ly shipped off to her new home. A Jamaican Lady Speaks Highly of Chambeilain’s Congh Medicine. Mrs. Michael Hart, wife of the sujb erintendent of Cart Service at Kings town, Jamaica, West Indies Islands, says that she has for some years, used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for coughs, croup and whooping cough and has found it very beneficial. She has implicit confidence in it and would not be without a bottle of it in her home. Sold by P. C. Corrigan. Very Low Rates to Beatrice, Neb., Via the North-Western Line.

In It There Is but n Single and Unl« versaI Speech. “In the mighty realm of music there is but one single speech.” Music forms the universal language which, when all other languages were confounded, the confusion of Babel left unconfounded. The white man and the black man, the red man and the yellow man, can sing together, however difficult they may find it to be to talk to each other. And both sexes and all ages may thus ex press their emotions simultaneously, for in vir ae of the power of the ear to distinguish side by side those differing but concordant notes -which make up harmony there Is not only room, but demand, for all the qualities of voice which childhood, adolescence, maturity and old age supply. Thus a love of music is much more frequent than a love of painting or sculpture, and you will reach the hearts and touch the feelings of the majority of mankind more quickly by singing them a song than by showing them a picture. In truth, the sensitiveness of the ear to melody and to harmony is so great that we not only seek to gratify it when bent upon recreation, but even In the midst of the hardest labor we gratify It if we can—London Catholic Times. Uneer Little Blunders. From an account of the Doncaster (England) Art club’s annual exhibition In the Doncaster Gazette: “Miss - also goes In for portraiture. In bitting off her father’s head her intentions are good, but the execution lacks very much in artistic finish.” In the London Mall’s description of a parade In honor of the king of the Hel lenes the reporter said: “The soldiers, clad only In their scarlet tunics, pre sented an unpleasant contrast with the warmly clad members of the police force.” From the windows of a British tailor: “We have cleared a Scotch merchant’s remains of high class overcoatings at a big reduction.” Not a Born Forarer. The indorsement of checks is a very simple thing, but, as the following story will show, It, too, has Its difficulties: A woman went into a bank where she had several times presented checks drawn to Mrs. Lucy B. Smith. This time the check was made to the order of Mrs. M. J. Smith—M. J. were her husband’s initials. She explained this to the paying teller and asked what she should do. “Oh, that is all right,” he said. “Just Indorse it as It is written there.” She took the check and, after much hesitation, said, “I don’t think I can make an M like that.” Hatr. Animal hair differs in construction from that grown on a human head. In human hair the upper skin is smooth and thin. Ttw^iEcular section is com paratively broad, forming the main part of the hair shaft. It is striped in appearance and carries the color mat ter. The tubular part is thin, extend ing to about one-fifth and'.certalnly not more than to one-quarter of the entire width of the hair. Animal hair also consists of three parts, but these are differently constructed, the tube often filling the entire hair. Greatly in Demand.
