Do You Wont to Know What You Swallow? There is a growing sentiment in this country in favor of mbdicikbs or known composition. It is but natural that one should have some interest in the compo sition of that which be or she is expected to swallow, whether it he food, drink or medicine. Recognizing this growing disposition on the part of the public, and satisfied that the fullest publicity can only add to the well-earned reputation of his medi cines, Dr. K. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has “taken time by the forelock,” as it were, and is publishing broadcast a list of all the ingredients entering into his leading medicines, the “Golden Medical Discovery” the popular liver invigorator, stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart regulator; also of his “Favorite Prescrip tion” for weak, over-worked, broken down, nervous aud invalid women. This bold and out-spoken movement on the part of Dr. Pierce, has, by showing exactly what his well-known medicines are composed of, completely disarmed, all harping critics who nave heretofore un « attacked them. A little pamphlet ieen compiled, from the standard medical authorities of all the several schools of practice, showing the strongest endorsements by leading medical writers of the several ingredients which enter into Dr. Pierce’s medicines. A copy of this little book, is mailed /re* to any one de siring to learn more concerning the valu able, native, medicinal plants which enter into the composition of Dr. Pierce’s med icines. Address Dr. Pierce as above. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are tiny, sugar coated anti-bilious granules. Tbey regulate and invigorate Stomach. Liver and Bowels. Do not beget the “pill habit." but cure constipation. One or two each day for a laxative and regulator, three or four for an active cathartic. Once tried alwsys in favor. •Hfl nnfl GIVEN away.

Queen Victoria’s Cats. Queen Victoria was a great lover of cats, and when the court moved it was accompanied by a regular caravan of cats. Persian. Manx, Angora. Mal tese and tabby cats all traveled in state to Balmoral. Osborne, Windsor or Buckingham palace, as the case might be. One Persian cat, of which the Queen was particularly fond, wore around her neck a collar, on which appealed in silver letters the inscrip tion, “I belong to the queen.” Black Snake a Fighter. A writer has described the common black snake as the most pugnacious of all the reptile family. “He is al ways ready for a fight.” he said, "and the man who doesn’t understand his style of fighting will do well to apolo gize before the first blow is struck.” A large percentage of the snakes in the Worcester farm are. Florida rat tlers caught by Mr. Brownell within the last three years. Ducks Like Men. “Ducks, their characters, virtues and history,” are the subject of an article in the London Spectator. The duck, says the writer, is very like the average man, hating what he does aot understand. An anecdote is given to point the remark. “A drake was suspected of murdering a meritorious hen. solely because he objected to hei color. It was unlike his family’s, sc he slew her.” Table Manners. Many things are not taught at school at the present day becaust they are declared to be obsolete, and some of us suspect that table manners are among them. If not. how are wt to account for the ungraceful manipu lation of knife and fork that we wit ness so frequently, and the misuse oi tableware generally, which is at time* almost barbaric?—Ladies' Pictorial. Language of Italy and Sicily. Among the natives of Italy and Sicily there are about 100,000 who fpeak French; German is spoken by 12.000; Slavic by 30,000, Albanese by 110,000; Greek by 38,000; Catalanian by 10,000.

Son of Italy Saw Freedom Rapidly Disappearing. There is a little horse car that runs through a lower East Side street. Up to a few days ago it carried, besides passengers, baskets, boxes and nu merous other things that took up so much room as to be in the way of people getting on and off the car. An inspector noticed this and reported It to the office of the car company. The following day the conductors were notified that no person was to be per mitted to ride upon the car with a package too large to be held upon the lap. As a result a great deal of trouble to the conductors ensued. The climax was reached when two Italians attempted to board a car with a huge oblong box about six feet high. They had almost succeeded In getting it on the back platform when the con ductor, who, at the time was collecting a fare in the front of the car, noticed them. Running back, he ordered the Italians to remove the box—that it was against the rules pf the company and they could not ride on the car with it. The Italians remonstrated and said they would pay an extra fare for the box. The conductor refused. The Ital ians insisted and quite an argument started. Finally, amid the loud curses of the Italians and the cheers of a crowd that had gathered, the conduc tor succeeded in getting the dark skinned fellows and the box off the platform and rang his bell twice. As the car drew rapidly away one of the Italians exclaimed in disgust: "You calla dis a free country—a free country and dey won't even let a dead 'man ride on da car.”—New York Press. ORIGIN OF SOME SALUTATIONS. Are Not by Any Means Result of Mere Formality. “The bow,” said an antiquary, “or riginated in a cower. The weak sav age. to save himself from being knocked down by the stronger one when they met, groveled upon the earth, and thus the bow arose. “The lifting of the hat is of much later date than the bow. It is derived from the time when men wore armor. When two armor-clad knights met in those days and fell into talk they took oft their helmets as a sign of mutual confidence. They exposed their heads to show that they respected and trust ed each other, to show that neither were afraid of being brained. Hence the modern lifting of the hat, a saluta tion whose meaning is: "I hold you in such reverence that without fear I place my life in yout hands.” “On the same principle is the fash ion of wishing health when drinking In the olden days it was a favorite trick to hand a man a drink and plunge a knife into him when his fea tures were hidden by the uplifted cup So our ancestors hit upon the scheme of pledging each other that there would be ‘nothing doing' while enjoy ing a mutual drink. From that comes our familiar ‘Here's to you,' ‘Happy days,’ etc.” Polite, But Busy. Not long ago a delegation of women appeared at the Capitol to solicit the support of a certain member of Con gress for a bill in which they were interested. This member is notorious ly energetic, and. appreciating the fact that his time was pretty well occu pied, the spokeswoman said: "Now. sir, if you would prefer, we will call at voter hotel in the evening and see you about this matter.” "Oh, no; I will lie glad to hear yon now,” he said courteously. "But we have a great deal to say on the subject. He bowed politely. “Ladies,” he said, “I shall be de lighted to hear you, no matter how much you have to say, if you will only put it in a few words.” In Darkest Hours. Jesus Himself drew near.—Luke 14:15 In darkest hours I hear a voice. Which comes my saddened heart t< cheer. Saying in tone of love.—“Rejoice! Jesus is near!” In times of trial and dismay, Through the dark gloom of doubt am fear. There breaks a light. like dawning dav, “Jesus is near!”' When years autumnal tokens bring. And fading hopes seem dry and sear Then bursts a bloom. line second spring— "Jesus is near!” Thus, when at length the veil shall rise Will my enfranchised spirit hear. From angel-volees through the skies.— "Jesus is near!” —Robert C. Waterston. D.D. Ardent Politicians. At a recent Liberal gathering in England a number of women, many ol them quite young, displayed banners bearing the motto: “What are you go ing to do for the women?” A,s one ol the fair young hecklers proceeded tc unfurl her banner a handsome steward rushed forward. “Leave the masses and come to the particular,” he said. “What do you mean?” she demanded. "Pardon me,—bring it down to the in dividual,” he explained. “I’ll marry you—on behalf of the party.” It is not said whether this sudden proposal was accepted or not. Odor for the Sick Room. .A delicious odor to use in a sick room is merely a mixture of powders. A half ounce each of powdered frank incense, cascarilla, benzoin, cloves, cinnamon and thyme are used. They should be worked into a fine, well mixed powder and kept in a tightly closed glass jar. When using heat either a metal dish or a shovel and throw a little of the powder over. It will smoke but not burn. Woman Prospector Makes Strike. Accompanied only by an Indian halfbreed, Lillian K.

Gray, of Northwest ern University, has accepted an ap pointment under the National Civic Federation to study conditions in the large cities of this country as respects different quasi-public undertakings. HAD HEART PAINS A Critical Case of Rheumatism Cured By Dr.Wllliama’ Pink Pills. While Mr. W. S. Geisel, of No. 125 East Coates street, Moberly, Mo., was steadily working at his trade iu a foun dry at that place, he became the victim of an attack of rheumatism, and his ex perience is that of thonsauds who are compelled to work in similar surround ings. He describes his situation as fol lows : “ I had been at work for a long time in a foundry where I was exposed to dampness. First my feet began to hurt and to swell, then my knees and my shoulder joints began to be affected iu the same way. Finally I could not walk without great difficulty and suffering and had to stop work altogether. My appetite was feeble and I grew very pale and weak. 1 began to have pains about my heart and it fluttered a great deal. I became greatly alarmed about my con dition. My mother kuew about the vir tues of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, as they had given her back her health when she was nearly wasting to death, and when she found that they were good for rheu matism too, she began to give them to me about a mouth after I was attacked. That was in the early part of March, 1903, and by June they had driven away the pains and swelling and had restored my appetite and color. Then I felt strong enough to take np a line of out door work and now, in October, I re gard myself as entirely well and I am abont to go into a foundry again at St. Louis.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills also cnre other diseases springing from im pure blood or disordered nerves, snch as sciatica, locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis and all forms of weakness in male or female. They may be had at all druggists or directly from the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenec tady, N.Y. Thank God for Gifta. The Mohammedans have the cus tom. when they receive a present, of thanking God first, then the giver. If you do them a favor, they will say: “I thank God for your kindness to me.” Some may comply rather thoughtlessly with this custom, which they have inherited from their fathers. But many certainly say it with their whole heart. How’s This ? We offer One Hundred Pollers Reward for eny case of Catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cura. _ F. J.

The young man replied that he was not quite certain, but believed that it was “Knights of Paralysis.” For Anti-Vivisectionists. Anti-vivisectionists have often sug gested that medical investgators should make experiments on them selves rather than on animals. They do not seem to be aware, or perhaps they shut their eyes to the fact, that investigators often do experiment on themselves: not a few have fallen vic tims to their zeal for knowledge.— British Medical Journal. Irishman or Indian. Having been described in the Wash ington Post as a noble red man. law yer Robert L. Owen has written a let ter to the editor. “I hold as a self evident truth,” he says, “that a man who is ninety-nine parts Irish and one part Cherokee is to all intents and purposes an Irishman, even if he is by the statutes of the United States a Cherokee Indian." Theory of Heat and Motion. The modern theory of heat and mo tion seems to have been quite clear to the mind of a Dutch professor named Van der Linden as early as 1642. In a medical treatise, written in Latin, the professor asserts his belief that the heat of the human body consists in the vibration of the most minute par ticles in its makeup. Dinner Perils. Do not at dinner sit next to the person with a hobby. It may be gar dening. it may be the collecting of “Moonlight" soap wrappers, it may be —and then heaven help you!—golf.

The Kind Yon Have Always Bought. “Manufactured Wool." Manufacturers pleasantly name shoddy “manufactured wool.” The term is speciously descriptive, for the material is made from the wools which have passed through the pro cess of manufacture. Soft worsted rags oa any kind—old stockings, or soft clotbs made from long-stapled wools—are cleaned and torn Into soft fluff in a macnine resembling some what the ordinary willow machine. Steam in Its Infancy. The first steamer to make a voyage across the western ocean was the Sa vannah of 350 tons and a length of 100 feet. She sailed from Savannah May 24. 1819, and arrived at Liverpool June 20. Her steam was purely auxiliary for when the wind was fair or the sea high the paddle wheels were unshipped and stowed on deck. Walk of London Women. London women have a new walk. The chin is held high and the head is turned over tne rignt or lett shoulder one hand grasping the skirt. The Ex press remarks: “It is advisable to give the new walk a wide berth, as the walker moves sideways.” SIGNIFICANCE OF MONEY SIGNS. English Terms Derived from Latin Words—Dollar Mark. They were discussing the other af ternoon the question of currency sym bols. The discussion had started by some one making a casual remark about "L. S. D.,’' referring, of course to “pounds, shillings and pence,” says the Washington Star. The question arose why some of the coins were de no. ’ by letters that had nothing at all to u **h their selling, and there was not Ol in the crowd, though there were soils nominally well-in formed people present, who could tell the significance of the letters till the question was looked up. It appeared that the pound sterling mark was simply a capital L. with a line drawn across the stem. It came from the Latin word “librae,” meaning a pound. The “d” used for the penny came also from the Latin, meaning “denarius,' originally a small Roman silver coin, but later having developed into a generic term for money and specifi cally for a small copper coin of in significant value. The “lb” mark, also used for the avoirdupois pound, came from the same word “librae ” as in Saxon times the pound avoirdupois was the same weight as a poun$l sterling of silver and the shilling was one-twen tieth of this, making the old shilling about three times the size of the present one. When it came to the dollar mark, there was more discussion, there being half a dozen explanations for this sign. But the most likely seemed to be that it was .=imr’.y a modified figure “8,” there ha. 'ng been eight silver reals in the old Spanish dollar, or “piece of eight.” in use in this country long before the introduction of American currency. HIS COMPARISON OF FATHERS Old Gentleman's Expression Not Flat tering to Himself. Old Ben Baker was a lifelong resi dent of Cape Flizabeth, Mass. He got a living from a small patch of garden, eked out by his chicken, pony, pig, Angora cats, collie dogs, canaries and rabbits, all of which had the indiscrim inate use of the two rooms of the shack he and his son Ben lived in. He had a peculiar habit of using big words, and invariably got them twist ed. He never could look upon young Ben as other than a child, and would take him to account whenever he was out late. When the “boy” was about 23 years old. and came home about 11 o'clock one night, the old man com menced as usual: “Why, when I was a boy, my father would have—” Young Ben had heard it so often that he thought it time to assert his rights. “Your father,” said he, “was a fool.” “My father was a d-d sight bet ter father than you ever had,” replied the elder. Made a Speedy Recovery. On one of the visits of the Amer ican fleet to English waters. Admiral Erben, now retired, was in command, with Capt. Alfred T. Mahan, the writer on naval affairs, as his flag captain. One morning Capt. Mahan came to his admiral with an invitation to dine with a duke. “I can’t accept this.” said Capt. Mahan, “as the}’ forgot to invite you.” “I should say you couldn’t.” growled the admiral. “I’ll answer for you.” Whereupon the admiral wrote: “Admiral Erben, U. S. navy, regrets that Capt. Mahan, his flag captain, cannot accept the invitation o' t’ e Duke of Blank. Capt. Mahan is on the sick list.” An hour or so later a messenger from the duke returned with invita tions for the admiral and the captain. Whereupon the admiral wrote again: “Admiral Erben accepts with pleas ure the invitation for Capt. Mahan and himself. He wishes also to advise the Duke of Blank that he has taken Capt. Mahan off the sick list.”—New York Tribune. Educating Children. Forcing the youthful mind is a practice no longer obtaining in schools of the best standing but not yet ob solete in many of the common schools. In schools which represent the dominant ideas of education to day, stimulation, interest, suggestion prevail, and driving is avoided. If there has been some leaning toward the prosaic, there is now a fresh in terest in stimulating the emotions, and a full realization of the need of many things conventionally not class ed among the useful, says Collier's Weekly. The greatest problem of ed ucation unsolved to-day relates to girls. Heretofore their education has been a mere copy of that long ago established for boys. Some day a genius will come along and conceive thoughts that shall form the basis of an education which shall help girls to all their best possibilities, without dissipating their strength on lines of effort established for natures in some respects entirely different. The Malden Love. The meadows hide their summer green Under a teil of gray; A mist rolls o’er the sunny sheen; It is a drear, dull dav! The dewdrops tip the blades with beads. That shine like costly gems; The roses hang their blushing heads 'Neath glittering diadems. But. hark! a sound of silver bells, Echoing o'er the woody dells. A little laugh, a sweet clear voice Which makes my beating heart rejoice! She comes, a fairy from above. A little maid, whose name is Love! The morning mist now rolls away. The sky is bathed in light. A golden sunshine crowns the day. My loved one is in sight! The birds sing out their songs again. The flowers all Hoorn anew And music swells in joyous strain From out the heavenly blue. She comes, and everything is bright. She comes amid the golden light. All nature once again is gay. It is the brightest summer day! She comes—a fairy from above, A little maiden whose name is Love! —Outdoors. Knew What It Meant. Bleeker—I say. old man, why don't you consult a phrenologist and find cut what that peculiar looking bump on the back of your head indicates? Meeker—Oh, I know what It indi cates, all right.

Taylor, of Wharton, N. J., says: “I had kidney trouble in its most painful and severe form, and the torture l went through now seems to have been almost un bearable. I had back aches, pains in the side and loins, dizzy spells and hot, fever ish headaches. There were bearing - down pains, and the kidney secretions passed too freauentlv and with n burning sensation. They showed sed iment. I became discouraged, weak, languid and depressed, so sick and weak that I could not keep up As doctors did not cure me I decided to try Doan's Kidney Pills, and with such success that my troubles were all gone after using eight boxes, and my strength, ambition and general health is fine.” Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box.

With Irritating Skin Humor—Hair Be gan to Fall Out—Wonderful Re ault from Cuticura Remedies. "About the latter part of July my whole body began to itch. I did not take much notice of It at first, but It began to get worse all the time, and then I began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin hum ors; but I became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the time. Especially at night, just as soon as 1 would get in bed and get warm, my whole body would begin to itch and my finger nails would keep it irritated, and it was not long before I could not rest night or day. A friend asked me to try the Cuticura Remedies, and I did, and the first application helped me wonderfully. For about four weeks I would take a hot bath every night and then apply the Cuticura Ointment to my whole body; and I kept getting better, and by the time I used four boxes of Cuticura I was entirely cured, and my hair stopped falling out.

Rurik the Rodsen, or Oarsman, a daring sea rover, landed in 862 on the Russian shore of the Baltic with his brothers, Sineus and Truwer. He subjugated the country from Novgo rod to the Volga, and his followers were called Rodsen. or Russians, Rod sen, in tlie Scandinavian tongue of the period, meaning oarsmen. Rurik died in 879.

Bee HOSPITALS CROWDED MUOHTT OF PATIENTS WCSEI Mrs. Plnkham’s Advice Saves Many From this Sad and Costly Experience. !It is a sad but certain fact that every year brings "an in crease in the numberof ope ra tions performed Upon women in our hospitals. More than three fourths of the patients lying on those snow wmie oeas are women ana giris wno are awaiting or recovering from opera tions made necessary by neglect. Every one of these patients had plenty of warning in that bearing down feeling, pain at the left or right of the abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the hack, pelvic catarrh, dizziness, flatulency, displacements or irregularities. All of these symptoms are indications of an unhealthy con dition of the female organs, and if not heeded the trouble may make headway until the penalty has to be paid by a dangerous operation, and a lifetime of impaired usefulness at best, while in many cases the results are fatal. Miss Luella Adams, of Seattle, 'Wash., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham “About two year* ago I was a great suf ferer from a severe female trouble, pains and headaches. The doctor prescribed for me and finally told me that 1 had a tumor and must undergo an operation if I wanted to get well 1 felt that this was my death warrant, but I spent hundreds of dollars for medical help, but the tumor kept growing. Fortunately I corresponded with an aunt inthelSew England States, and she advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it was said to cure tumors. I did so and immediately began to improve in health,and I was entirely cured, the tumor disappearing entirely, with out an operation. I wish every suffering woman would try this great preparation.” Just as surely as Miss Adams was cured of the troubles enumerated in her letter, just so surely will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure other women who suffer from fe male troubles, inflammation, kidney troubles, nervous excitability or ner vous prostration. Mrs. Pinkham invites all young women who are ill to write her for free advice. She is daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years has been advising sick women free of charge.
