top of bis head to a very simple but
effective treatment.
"Some years ago." he said, "my hair
began to fall out. I knew at the time
a man of about seventy years who had
very thick mop of hair. I asked him
what the secret was, and he told me to
lut plow my scalp with a hard brush.
Well, I tried his advice, and I hare not
lost a single hair la eleven years.
"People make a mistake In using so
called restorer. Some of them try
without avail every liquid they come
aero which is contained In a bottle
labeled 'hair something or other. Just
such a man was a minister I once
knew la Hartford. He was passing
through his wife's room one day when
he saw a bottle on her dressing table
with the word hair on it. He grab
bed It, saturated bis scanty white locks
wijl it and went to bed. He awoke
next morning to find his hair a bright
green. Tbe bottle contained hair dye
and not a hair restorer. He Lad to
preach that morning and found the
task somewhat embarrassing because
bis congregatioti seemed to take more
interest in bis hair than in his sermon.
He got into that predicament by re
fating to take the advice I gave to
hi in.
Tbea Mark Twain went on to give
away gratuitously a remedy for heart
burn. -For eight years," be explained. "I
was troubled with indigestion which
totk tbe form of an insurrection In my
stomach after I went to bed. Various
things which I had eaten and which I
thought were good things got to quar
reling, Wb0e this warfare was going
on I happened to get to a place in
Fwedec where there was no drug
store and where I could not get car
bonate of soda, which I found usually
smothered the heartburn.
While I was In this out of the way
place the bean burn came on in tbe
middle f tbe night, and I thought to
myself that I would bare to. stand for
ft. Ia my pain I stretched myself on
my left side and threw out my arms.
Singularly enough, the pain passed
away. I thought It was an accident,
bet after turning over n my back
and getting up a heartburn again
last for the satisfaction of the thing
1 found that lying, on the left side
; actually did bring relief. When I got
: bark to London, I asked the secre
tary of tte Royal Medical society why
this was. but he didn't know, so I per
! su&ded bio to question some of the
great dttiurs with whom be came In
cxntact.
-He asked doctor after doctor about
the mystery, but none of them could
enlighten him. and at last be spoke to
tte celebrated Sir William Thompson
Sir William, after thinking a moment,
said: Why. yes, I've heard about that
I remedy, but I had cot thought about
a it for fifty years since. Ia fact I was
f a student la Germany. I Buffered then
from aa attack of heartburn, nnd an
old village fanner told me to lie on my

and have continued to treat my pa

One more cure Mark gav to his audi

asserted, weald always drive away

- aeee- tateamaa'a Peculiarities.
That the late Li Hung Chang possess
ed a sense of humor' Is shown by sev
eral stories. One is told in connection
with his first Introduction of the tele
graph, says the Philadelphia Press.
Posts - were constantly torn up and
burned and the wires cut and stolen.
At last an offender was caught .red
handed and brought before Li. He beg
ged for mercy and promised never to
repeat the off ense. t iw-;-f .
n'llseevto that," said Li; with a
grave," Imperturbable smile. ;f
Some few hours later this particular
culprit was not In a position to repeat
that or any other offense, and the tele
graph lines were left undisturbed. ,
Another anecdote is connected with a
summons to the court of Peking, dic
tated by its hostile element. Scenting
danger, he took with him his army of
60,000 men,, drilled and armed accord
ing to the best European system, a
force easily capable of "clearing out"
the whole capital in a few hours. He
grimly marched his army to the gates
of the city and sent in a message to
the emperor, which w as, ; of course,
filled with all possible oriental courtesy,
but which practically amounted to:
"Weil, here I am. What do you want
of me? The court suddenly discovered
that it did not want him at all except
to commend him most cordially for his
seal and devotion. . ": .1;
One of the late viceroy's peculiarities
was a violent temper. It is related
that once a serious disaster occurred
la the arsenal at Tientsin, for which
a general of high rank was technically
responsible. LI summoned him to his
office.
The general came In a hurry. Dress
ed in full uniform, his head covered
with the official hat that bore the but
ton of his high rank, he rushed into
the viceroy's presence, " threw himself
fiat on the floor at his master's feet,
face downward, his official hat flying
off. The viceroy also knew what to
do. Without speaking he cuffed the
general's ears, using his feet for that
purpose, and after kicking him until
his rage had been partially satisfied
he seized the hat, tore off the button,
threw it one way and the hat another,
snd then, finding his voice, dismissed
the man from his service and degraded
him in rank.

" London aristocrats are feeling gloomy
over the Duke of Norfolk's supplement
.to the London Gazette, "in which as
earl marshal of England be gives de
tailed regulations concerning robes and
coronets to be worn bj peers and peer
esses at the approaching coronation,
'writes the special correspondent of the
Chicago' News, The disappointment is'
chiefly among the fair sex. They are
not to be allowed all the- furbelows and
tinsel which to feminine minds form
the sine qua non of such important
ceremonials. i
4 To begin with, Qu;en Alexandra's
request that all coronation ; gowns
should be made of English goods and
by English couturieres has had any
thing but an enthusiastic reception.
Heretofore the white satin dresses and
ruby . velvet robes have come from
France, and Dame Fashion stubbornly
refuses to be satisfied with the home
supply. It has just leaked out that the
wives of three prominent diplomats
have secretly passed ia their orders to
a ttue de la Pair firm, and it is more
than probable that many other gowns
signed by French houses will find their
way Into the royal conege.
Another cause for pouting lips is the
regulation that, peeresses must wear
their robes over the usual full court
dress instead of over the white satin
toilets elaborately trimmed with gold
laces and embroideries which were de
rlgueur in former days. One thing
alone remains unchanged, and that Is
the robe. As in George IV.'s time, it
will be of ruby velvet the cape furred
with miniver pure and bordered with
rows of ermine, the number of the lat
ter varying " according to rank. The
duchesses may show four rows, the
marchionesses three and a half, count
esses three, viscountesses two and a
half, while the baronesses will have to
be content with two.
An innovation, this time in gentle
men's attire, which will detract not a
little from the gorgeoiisness and pomp
of the spectacle, is the fact that peers
are ordered to wear their robes over
full court dress, uniforms or regimen
tals. At all previous coronations they
were worn over white satin doublets
and trunks" and white silk hose. But
what has caused the greatest discon
tent is the restrictions regarding coro
nets. The clause stating that "no
Jewels or precious stoaes are to be set
or used in the coronets, or counterfeit
pearls instead of tbe silver balls,
came like a thunderclap to many, espe
cially to the dames who had already
had their blazing diamond circlets pre
pared. It is now definitely settled that only
the king and queen and the Duke and
Duchess of Cornwall will wear jeweled
coronets. All other coronets are to be
of silver gilt caps of ruby velvet with
ermine lining and having a gold tassel
n top. The baron's coronet will have
six silver balls on the rim, the vis
count's sixteen, the earl's eight with
points; the marquis four silver balls
and four gold leaves alternately and
the duke's eight gold strawberry
leaves.
If peeresses cannot wear jewels on
their heads they evidently plan to do
so on their bodies, and all London
Jewelers are now busy making over
and resetting heirlooms. Pearls, sap
phires and emeralds are to be the fa
vorite stones- Ropes of pearls are to
be worn from the shoulders as though
fastening the velvet ruby robes, some
what the same way In which Queen
Alexandra wore them at the opening
of parliament ,
Contrary to expectation no new
crown will be made for the queen.
King Edward's crown is to be slightly
enlarged, but it will undergo no other
modification. His majesty on this
eventful day will appear before his
subjects in the same elaborate robes
worn by his granduncle, George IY.
This costume consists of three parts.
The most Important is the "dalrnatlca,"
or imperial robe. It Is a three corner
ed mantle forming an inverted "Y"
and fitting very closely about the
shoulders. All over It are small em
broidered crosses.
Beneath It Is worn the "supertunica,"
a sort of short pelerine having sleeves
f gold cloth embroidered with gold
flowers. Above both dalmatica , and
tupertunlca is worn the "arm ilia,"
which Is also of gold cloth, but has a
deep ermine border. It is placed on
the king's shoulders by the archbishop
of Westminster, who exhorts his maj
esty to see In this mantle "a pledge
of divine grace enveloping him com
pletely." . . .. -., . ' .
A McKlnley Memorlrtl Ia Boaolala.
1 A movement has been started In
Honolulu for the erection of a monu
ment to the late President McKlnley,
In which all the varied f nationalities
hall assist, writes a correspondent of
the Boston Evening Transcript It
was first thought best to raise a fund
toward a national monument to be
erected in Washington, but now the
people of Ha wall have decided to show
their patriotism by building a McKln
ley monument upon their own hook.
The Japanese and- Chinese societies
have voted to assist ta the building of
the monument and 4 will raise their
share of. the necessary: funds among
their own people.
A FILIPINO HUMORIST.
Tvlcloa Flayed by Qatataa falas oa
Abierleaa Officers..
Quintan Salas, the Filipino leader In
Hollo, who recently surrendered, seems
to be a humorist as well as a fighter
and has played many tricks on Amer
ican officers, says the Chicago News.
At one "time when Captain C. M. Ilay
sor, a volunteer officer, was ordered to
pursue Salas in the Dumangas region
he ran across a native who offered his
services as a guide. Captain Raysor
was quick to avail himself of the offer.
The guide seemed to know the country
very well and showed the captain more
bypaths, lines, short cats and hard
trails than he possibly could have found
alone. Up and down the bad lands
they hiked after that will-o'-the-wisp,
Quintan Salas. Toward the last of the
march the guide told. the captain that
he would do a ittle scouting around
himself and see if he could locate any
signs of Salas or his men. lie evident
ly found something, for he did not re
turn. While In Iloilo recently Captain
Raysor was introduced to Colonel Quin
tan Salas and could hardly believe his
eyes as he recognized, standing before
him with easy grace, his. erstwhile
guide of the swamps.
Captain Raysor is not the first Amer
ican officer that Quintan Salas has had
fun with. He dropped Into Pototan
one hazy evening disguised as a padre
and made a pretty fair collection of out
standing accounts. The commanding
officer , was apprised of his visit, but
when a search was instituted Quintan
had just gone up the road. Another
officer, a Lieutenant Conger, once ran
across an Insurgent hospital. The place
was In charge of a very courteous med
ical officer, who greeted Lieutenant
Conger quite cordially. He had a red
cross on his arm. Not to be outdone in
Kthe amenities, Lieutenant Conger ex
tended all the privileges granted by the
Geneva conTention and rode away.
After he reached his bivouac for the
night the lieutenant learned that the
medical officer he had met was none
other than Colonel Quintan Salas. The
red cross had been assumed after the
Americans came in sight and most of
the wounded and sick were "faked"
also, for a visit to the place immediate
ly afterward found It completely deserted.

the other day, immedately after the an

from the Albany train.
"What do you think of the plan of the
Greater New York Democracy to start
a new organization?' was asked.
"Not a word," repeated Mr. Hill.
"How about Mr. Croker's defeat?"
"Now," said Mr. HHL smiling, "when
I have anything to say I know bow to
say it but I have nothing at present
and It Is useless to urge me."
Mr. Hill went to William F, Shee-
han's law office, where be conferred
with Mr. Sheehan in regard to the fran
chise tax suits and later took luncheon
with him at the Downtown club, where
he persisted in his refusal to talk, ne

WOMAN'S KIDNEYS.
Thousands of Women Have Kidney Trouble and
Never Suspect it.
To Prove What tbe Great Kidney Remedy, SWAHP-ROOT, Will Do for
YOU, Every Reader of the Nebraska Independent flay
Have a Sample Bottle Sent Free by Mall..
Among the many famous cures of
Swamp-Root investigated by the Inde
pendent none seem to speak higher of
the wonderful curative properties of this
great kidney remedy than the one we
publish this week for the benefit of our
readers. . , . . .
Mrs. H. N. Wlieeler(.f 117 High Rock St.
Lynn. Mass., writes on Nov. 2, 1SUJ: "About IS
months ago I had a very severe spell of sick
ness. I was extremely sics for three weeks,
and when 1 finally was able to leave my bed 1
was left with excruciating pain in my
back. My water at times looked very like
' coffee. 1 could pass bat little at s time, and
then only after suffering great pain. My
physical condition was such that 1 had no
strength and was all run down. The dwtor
mid my kidney were trf affected, and while I
Did Not Know I Had
Kidney Trouble,
I somehow felt certain that my kidneys were
tbe cause of my trouble. Sly sister. Mrs. C. K.
Littletieid, of Lynn, advised me to give Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Moot a trial. 1 procured a
bottle and inside of three days commented to
get relief. I followed up that bottle with
another, and at the completion of this one
found I was completely cared. My strength
returned, and today I am as well as ever. My
business is that of canvasser, I am on my feet
a great deal of the time, and have to use much
energy in (retting around. My enre is there
fore all the more remarkable, and is exceed
inly gratifying to me.""
MRS. H. N. WHEELER.
Swamp-Root will do just as much for
any housewife whose back is too weak
to perform her necessary work, who
always tired and overwrought, who feels
that the cares of life are more than she
can stand. It is a boon to the weak and
ailing. "' , " ' '

kidneys, but now modern science proves that
1 nearly all diseases' have their beginning in the
disorder of these most important organs.
The kidneys filter and purify the blood
that is their work. . So when your kidneys are weak or out of order you can under
stand how quickly your entire body is affected, and how every organ fails to do its
duty." " .- v"

HE GOT THE SOAP.
A af issoariaa's Peculiar Reqaest of
George (ion Id
While the special train of George
Gould was on a side track in Missouri,
says the New York Times, Mr. Gould
stepped to earth to stretch his legs
while waiting for a regular train to
pass. It was in the more rugged part
of the state, well away from civiliza
tion. A typical habitant of the dis
trict stopped a pair of emaciated mules
near the train. He balled Mr. Gould
and said:
"Say, mister, we have a new baby
at my dugout an we ain't got no
soap. My old woman is so stuck up
over It that she's making me drive
fourteen miles to town to get some
nice smellln soap, an I thought maybe
you'd help me out by gettin me a
piece of soap outen one of them fancy
cars."
Mrs. Gould, who overheard the re
quest had the porter give the man
several pieces of soap wrapped hi some
towel 3 and several articles of tinned
delicacies. The man seemed much
surprised at such generosity, and as he
turned to drive homeward he shouted
back to Mr. Gould:
