of Alcohol
Doctors prescribe very little, if
any, alcohol these days. They
prefer strong tonics and altera
tives. This is all in keeping
with modern medical science.
It explains why Ayer's Sar
saparilla Is now made entirely
free from alcohol. Ask your
doctor. Follow his advice.

ABOARD" A "MAN"OF-WA"Rr
Life Largely Made Up of Scrubbings,
Regulations and Inspections.
The day's programme aboard a initii-ef-wnr
Is calculated to inako the boy
who wants to run away to sea sit up
and think twice. It varies somewhat
according as the ship Is in port or at.
K-u nuil under different commands, but
lu any ease, from f o'clock- in the morn
Ing till 7:!!0 at night, It Is a rather
1renuous round of scrubbings and
drills. The recruit realizes very soon
tknt the expression "shipshape" means
a pood deal.
Saturday morning is a tremendous
rlcaulug time, called "Held day," which
S followed by a half holiday In the
afternoon, and on Sunday morning the
captain himself Inspects his ship from
keel to truck, The marine baud Is sta
tioned Just below on the hurricane
deck, and the bluejackets stand on the
port Ride of the quarter deck and the
marines on the starboard, all ready
for Inspection.
But life Isn't all scrubbing, regain
lions and Inspections. On the larger
plilps the government furnishes ath
letic supplies, and each ninn-of-wnr
has her champion boxer ami baseball
And football teams. These tennis ure
managed or supervised, at least, by
nfllccrs, and many an ensign or ljeu
tennut who has won his "N" at the
Naval academy plays shoulder toshoul
tier with his bluejackets. Such fa
miliarity would have scandalized old
Commodore Tortcr beyond words. St.

The Elevator Eyes.
One of tho greatest hardships fluff cr
itl by men who run elevators In the
tall ofllce buildings downtown Is the
bnd effect It has on their eyes. The
cars are ritu at a high rate of speed,
and, as the men have to look straight
abend of them most of the time, their
eyes soon feel the strain of the con
stant motion.
"I've worked In the subway," re
marked one of these elevator men,
"and I thought that was pretty bad,
hut It Isn't a patch to the way my
eyes feel after a day's work In these
cars, l r you ever run across an cie

injtoo. A PARASITE CREEPER.
New Zealand's Vegetable Caterpillar l
a Most Peculiar Plant.
The most extraordinary object I have
ever seen Is the New Zealand vegetable
caterpillar. The rata is n parasite
creeper which first destroys Its forest
host anil then crushes It to death and,
usurping Its skeleton, becomes a tree
Itself. If the rata seedling is dug up
It is found to be springing not from a
seed, but from the head of a perfectly
fo lined caterpillar.
It Is supposed by some that the
caterpillar, which on dissection proves
to be Internally the exact counterpart
of Its living Insect relative, swallows
the tiny rata seed while, living and.
burrowing Into the ground, becomes.
Instead of a chrysalis, the germinating
home of the seed, which by some
agency turns Its unfortunate foster
mother Into wood.
Others, however, contend the cater
pillar Itself Is produced by the rata,
urging In support of their theory that
If springing from a seed the shoot
would grow out of different parts of
the caterpillar Instead of Invariably
growing out of the head.
The Insect vegetable Is yellowish,
about four Inches long and Is fulh ex
tended. I have seen them frostily ms
up and others that have been kept for
v mul ,,ml the nppc;u.

HEW CONSTITUTION CARRIES BY
A LARGE MAJORITY.
HASKELL ELECTED GOVERNOR
Democratic Btate Ticket Sweeps Ter
ritories Vote lo Very Heavy and
Several Days Will Elapse Before
Returng Are All In.
Oklahoma City, Sept. 18. Itturns
reeolved from the larger cities and
counties of Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory this morning Indicate that the
constitution of the proposed new state
has been adopted by a large majority;
that the prohibition clause of the con
stitution, which was voted on sep
arately, bus also been ratified, and
that the Democratic state ticket, head
ed by C. N. Haskell for governor, bus
been elected over the Republican state
ticket, headed by Frank Fruntz, tho
present territorial governor of Okla
homa. The voting was very heavy.
Several days will elapse before com
plete returns are lu.
The new state elected five congress
men. In tho First and Second dis
tricts the Republicans expected to
elect ex-Delegate to Congress 1$. S.
McGulre and ex-Terrltorlal Governor
T. n. Ferguson. The Third, Fourth
and Fifth dEtrlcts had been conceded
to the Democrats, whose candidates lu
the respective districts were .lames
Davenport, C D. Carter and S. Ferris.
The convention that framed the
state constitution was heavily Demo
cratic and the constitution as com
pleted was obnoxious to the Repub
licans. Secretary Taft, speaking re
cently at Oklahoma City, ndviscd Re
publicans to vote against, the consti
tution. Because of the strong desire
for fctutohood, however, the Repub
lican party did not attempt to defeat
tho constitution. The new state must
await the constitution's endorsement
by President Roosevolt, who will
either confirm or reject it upon his
judgment ns to whether or not it
conforms to the enabling act of con
gress and the constitution of the
United States. In the enabling act
congress provided for prohibition In
the Indian Territory for twenty-one
yoars from Jan. 1, 190G. The prohibi
tion clause voted on yestenlny applies
the came provision to Oklahoma.
