THOUSANDS OF LIVES SAVED By “Mother's Medic'^e Chest” and Patent Prescriptions. Commenting on attacks made by certain eastern publications on some of the best known and most valuable of the world’s proprietary medicines, the Committee on Legislation of the Proprietary Association says: “All through the country districts, in every state of the union, you will find in the farm houses the old family remedies, sometimes called ‘patent medicines,’ many of which have been in use in the same household for gen erations. Among such people the old fashioned proprietary medicine, al ways at hand with full printed in structions for use, is one of the neces sities of life. ’To families in the country many miles from a doctor such remedies are invaluable. ‘Mother’s medicine chest’ has saved many a life and met many a threatening sickness at the thres hold and turned it out of doors. So far from constituting self-prescription, as is often pretended, acquaintance with a ‘patent medicine’ often obvi ates the necessity of such a step; for here is a prescription already made up, the effect of which is well known. One of the greatest advantages of such medicine is that its constant for mula gives it the character of a single drug, so far as uniformity of result is concerned, and the people who use it know from experience just what they can count on—which is more than can be said of many physicians’ prescrip tions frequently obtained at a far greater cost and trouble.” Jokes With Soldiers. While some regiments of London vol unteers were engaged in a sham fight in the suburbs a man on a coach, pass ; ing along a neighboring road, sounded “Cease firing” on his bugle. The call was passed along the lines and the battle was suspended till the joke was discovered. DONT MISS THIS. A Cure for Stomach Trouble—A Nev* Method by Absorption—No Drugs. DO YOU BELCH?

A naturalist declares, man eoold not inhabit it after nine years' time, in spite of all the sprays and poisons that could be manufactured for the destruction of insects. The insects and slugs would simply eat all the orchards and crops in that time. Every housekeeper should know that if they will buy Defiance Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never 6ticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 o*.—one full pound—while all other Cold Water Starches are put up in % -pound pack ages, and the price is the same, 10 cents. Then again because Defiance Starch Is free from all injurious chem icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large let ters and figures “16 ozs." Demand De fiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron stick ing. Defiance never sticks. Heaven knows the difference be tween winning and work. Insist on Getting It. Some grocers say they don’t keep Defiance Starch. This is because they have a stock on hand of other brands containing only 12 oz. in a package, which they won't be able to sell first, because Defiance contains 16 oz. for .the same money. It takes more than push to open the doors of paradise. More Flexible and Lasting, won’t shake out or blow out; by using Defiance Starch you obtain better re sults than possible with any other brand and one-third more for same money. _ A grass widow is seldom as verd ant as her title would indicate. Superior quality and extra quantity must win. This is why Defiance Starch is taking the place of all others. The bitterest repentance cannot re call the hour that is past. riVf permanent!? oared.

Desolation follows desec rati ml Beauty a Natter of Personal Taste' Only General Agreement la That the Power to Attract Is Un failing Evidence of Its Posses sion. “Beauty is a question for the blind to decide,” remarked Aristotle when pressed for a definition. Later on he wrote a treatise on the subject, but the manuscript is not extant, and evefi if it were would we ever be made to agree on the subject of beauty? Men like Hegel, Schelling. Fichte, Emerson, Burke and Gautier wrote philosophical volumes and essays on this topic—none of them agreeing however. All the poets, the artists and the musicians of the world have tried to tell what beauty is, and only on one single point has a general agreement been made evident—the essence of beauty is the power to attract. As to the secret of this power all the world disagrees. The brilliant Gautier says: “A woman who is beautiful is brainy enough: that is, she has the quality of being beautiful. I prefer a ptetty mouth to a fine mind. I would give fifty souls for a single well-formed ankle.” Typically French, this! The Mohammedans have a great i ethical work called “El Ktab,” which defines the essentials for feminine loveliness as follows: “Four things must be of black color —hair, eyes, eyelashes and eyebrows. Four things must be white—skin, teeth, hands and the iris. Four things must be red—lips, tongue, gums and cheeks. Four things must be round— head, neck, arm and ankle. Four things must be slender—fingers, arms, legs and the back.” The final tests, however, are four proofs of ignorance, which are be trayed by the eyes, nostrils, lips and fingers. So you see the French writer ana the Mohammedan sage practi cally agree in raising the body of woman higher than her mind. Edmund Burke was a very particu lar chap. Here is his punctilious recipe: “She must not be too tall, but gentle and docile. She must have many varied spiritual qualities. She must be extremely well built without producing an impression of strength or power. She must have a clear, wholesome complexion.”—New York Herald. Japan Is But Reclaiming Her Own -- 3* More Than a Century Ago Re conquered Territory Was in the Undisputed Possession of the Island Empire. An Englishman in Tokyo, writing of the Japanese conquest of Sakhalin island, says: “What the Japanese mean by their present operations may easily be inferred from the nomen clature they are adopting. They have called Aniwa bay by the name ‘Higa shi-Fushimi bay’ to commemorate the destruction of the Novik by the Chi tose and the Tsushima, in the former of which ships Prince Higashi-Fushi mi was then serving. So. too. Patience point has been renamed Kataoka Mi saki’ and Patience bay Shichiro Wan,’ in consideration of the fact that Ad miral Kataoka Shichiro commands the naval expedition. Again, the two promontories of Shiretako and Noto ro, on the east and west respectively of Aniwa bay, are to be called hence forth ‘Juzozaki’ and ‘Kondo-zaki,’ after Kondo Juzo, chief librarian of the Tokugawa government at the close of the eighteenth century. “In 1798 news of Russian appear ance in nortnern waters having reach ed Yed do, Kondo JU7.o was sent to in vestigate. He visited Etorafu island in the Kuriles and there found that the Russians, true to the occidental customs of mediaeval days, had ap propriated the unguarded territory in that region by the simple device of setting up pillars to announce its occu pation. Kondo removed these wit nesses of theft and on his return to Yeddo published a book dealing with the questions of Sakhalin (Karafuto), the Kuriles (Chishima) and Kam chatka. The gist of his contention was that the only tribunal to which international disputes about boundar ies could be appealed was the tribunal of arms and that if Japan hoped to rest secure within closed gates she must take steps to define those gates. “Now after the lapse of more than 10 years Kondo's foresight is to re ceive national recognition. Thus Ja pan is significantly pointing to the pages of history, where in clear terms her titles to this northern island are inscribed. She virtually announces her intention of not only recovering but also keeping." Amends Made by All the Defendants —- * Dove of Peace. Driven from Homo by Turbulent Scene. Again Hovers Over the Charcoal Flats in Serene Content. The white-winged dove of peace fli tiers and coos over Charcoal flats ax d hovers trustingly in the ambient ether even where discord was wont to prevail. An armistice has teen de clared and the peace plenipotentiaries appeared before Recorder Fogarty yesterday morning, when the protocol was signed and the snowy-winged bird liberated. But the dove of peace has a wary eye skinned for trouble, for it is feared hostilities will oreak out anew, despite the friendly inter vention of his honor, says the New Orleans Times-Democrat. Maudy Gould, a dignified matron of Charcoal flats, some time ago caused the arrest of Bill Sims, Chink Sims and Sam Sims on the charge of in sult and abuse, and this morning agreed to withdraw the charge be cause the aforesaid dove had put in its appearance. “Are yon willing to let these men off if they behave themselves?” asked Judge Fogarty. ‘ Ah is* jedge.” replied Mandy. ‘‘De Bible say ter fergib yo' ennymies en deze gemruen done made der poller gies ter me en ax me ter 'scus'n um fer callen me or—” “Never mind wha^ they railed you,” interrupted his honor. “If they took it back and made ruorer amends, I’U let them go.” "Yaas, suh, jedge, dev done tnak# proper mens all right; dey men mer front fence w'ieh dey broke down, en Bill, dah, he men mer washtub w'ieh he hit me ov'r de hald wid en Chink men de kitch'n table w'ieh he ain’t bruk ’t all cause somebody else bruk it.

But if I ever get any of you up here again I’ll amend my decision and put you all to mending city prop erty. Discharged.” Gory Scene in Recent Popular Novel - *-. When Men Fought with Battle.Ax and Sword Before the Inven. tlon of “Villainous Saltpeter’’ Made Such Weapons Obsolete. Here is a gory scene from Halliwell Sutcliffe's new novel, “Red o’ the Feud.” The scene is in England, the time in the indefinite past and the weapon used for the killings is called a “foster-brother," a kind of pole-ax: “He turned, to find Red Ratcliffe out of saddle, standing to the top of his six feet four inches of height and hold ing the ax in his two brawny hands, while he swayed it gently to and fro. What followed passed with the speed of a tempest flung from the belly of a clear blue sky. Wayne of Ludworth got his sword out somehow and leaped back; before his friends could get to him Red Ratcliffe had run forward, had parried his first wild sword thrust as one turns aside a bramble in one's path, had lifted foster-brother high and higher yet, swinging it like a flail above his head. “And then the great ax fell aad Wayne of Ludworth's day was done, and Red Ratcliffe. with little time to spare if the oncoming Waynes were to be met, set his two feet firmly on the ground and tugged and tugged at the ax, where it lay in Wayne’s big skull, and wrenched it loose in the nick .of time. The stripling Wayne, lighter of foot than his kinsman, had outpaced him. and his sword was per ilously near to Ratcliffe, when at last he wrenched the ax-head free and swung it high again; once more the sword was turned aside, lightly as with contempt, and foster-brother whistled as it cut the air. “Shameless Wayne was close in now and made a desperate leap to save the lad; his fore foot lit upon a patch of offal in the road and he stumbled un der the haft of the big ax as it turned and whistled down the wind and bit the stripling through the bone. Fair on the crown Shameless Wayne caught half the blow as it descended— and the haft, with thick steel at it* core, was weighty—and like a log he rolled beside his fallen kinsman.’' War Photographer That Knew No Fear —■ - James Ricalton Devoted to Hie Profession. Heedless of Fame or Money—Ever Searching for -Real Thing." A war photographer must have the nerve of a soldier, James Ricalton, who is described in Richard Barry's “Port Arthur” as an “obscure great man,” has gone through life with his nose to his work, like a dog following a scent, heedless of fame or moi ey. It was he whom Edison sent into the tropical jangles twenty years ago to search out a vegetable fiber for the electric lamp. He was the first man to walk through northern Rus sia, 1,500 miles from Archangel to St. Petersburg. In the Philippines he was the only man to photograph the troops actually firing on the foe. At the battle of Caloocan a soldier near him was hit, and Ricalton seized the useles rifle and cartridge belt and went rn with the skirmishers. At the siege of Tientsin he stood on the walls and photographed Americans as they ware “dropped” by Chinase bullets. He went through incredible dangers in “getting" one of the new siege shells, 500 pounds’ weight, as it left the gun for the battleships in Port Arthur bay. The process of photography was a dangerous one. The camera was set and tilted at the proper angle. As the gunner pulled the lanyard the photographer pressed the bulb. He had stuffed his ears with cotton so that the shock would not break the drums; for gunners have sometimes been deafened for life. The chances were that he would be hurled to the ground and that his camera would be smashed. “Why do you take the risk?" asked an observer, who knew how often bat tle pictures are “faked.” “You can easily take the gun at rest, and then paint in a little dust and that wee dot up in the air.” “But it wouldn't be the real thing,” said Ricalton; and he went on to the finish with his dangerous task.— Youth’s Companion. Fall of Niagara River. Niagara river, in its course from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario, falls a dis tance of 627 feet. A survey by the United States engineers, who meas ured the flow of the river below the falls, shows that it discharges 30,000 cubic feet of water a second from the one lake to the other. By a simple calculation it appears that in its des cent of twenty-seven miles from lake to lake, Niagara river develops the a^uivalent of about 9,000,000 theoret ical horsepower. Gen. Jackson Vine. The wild grape vine on the shores of Mobile bay, about one mile north of Daphne, Ala., is commonly known as the “Gen. Jackson vine," from the fact that Gen. Andrew Jackson twice pitched his tent under it during his campaign against the Seminole In dians. This vine, in June. 1897, was reported to have a circumference of six feet one inch at its base. Its age was estimated at that time to exceed 100 years.—Scientific American. In True American Style. An alarm of fire in the vicinity of Harrrison street in Baltimore brought out the fire department of the district. While the bells clanged and the pun gent wood smoke of the engines filled the air, the merchant who occupied the first floor pushed his way through the crowd and hung a signboard over his door. It read: •'No interruption to business.” The City Child Abroad. Lucy was on her first visit to the country, and, although she had heard of cows being milked, she had never seen the operation. On the first even ing after her arrival at the farm she said: “Mama, please may I go down to the barnyard? I want to see jusl how they get the milk into those cows and how they get it out again.” His Threat. There was a very naughty boy and his mother did not know what to do with him. So she said, “I will put you in a hencoop if you will not be have.” Then he said, “Well, before you put me in, I want to tell you that I will not lay any eggs."—New York World.

A devoted mother seems to listen to every call of duty excepting the su preme one that tells her to guard her health, and before she realizes it some derangement of the female organs has manifested itself, and nervousness and irritability take the place of happi ness and amiability. Tired, nervous and irritable, the mother is unfit to care for her chil dren, and hercondition ruins the child's disposition and reacts upon herself.
