Rejects "Undiscovered Merit"
I have never known a case of un
discovered merit and I have never
known a case where merit failed to
achieve success. I have known many
men gifted with great ability who
failed miserably in life, but in every
instance the failure arose from neg
lect to develop natural talent into
trained capacity. Bourke Cockran.

MACHINERY.
The Machine which skims tho
cream from milk does not lose a drop,
while the old skimming process was
crude and wasteful. Washing ma
chines, which will relieve woman of the
drudgery of cleaning clothes have not
proved an encouraging success up to
date, but when it comes to manufac
turing exclusively by machinery with
out the touch of human hands, there
is nothing more interesting than the
history of Pilisbury's Vitos the best
breakfast food in the market to-day.
The white heart of the wheat ker
nel is cut out by steel rolls, conveyed
to sterilizers, and then packed in two
pound, air-tight packages (this is the
whole story), all by polished steel ap
pliances, no handling, no cooking, no
coloring, no adulteration, just the
white heart of the wheat berry steril
ized, nothing added, nothing taken
away.
Pilfsbury's Vitos is therefore a
healthful, substantial breakfast dish,

Poetical Place Name.
The voortrekkers had a fine sense
of the poetry of things. Up in the
Transvaal there is a little place
which rejoices in the name of Wanch
teenbeitjebeideboschfontein. It Is a
name which speaks of leisure; whose
gentle invitation to the thirsty trav
eler to rest a little by the brook be
neath the cool shode of the tree calls
up at once the thought of a green
oasis in a dry and barren land. Cape,

Hungarian Geese.
The plans of Hungary are well
adapted for the raising of geese, and
travelers in that country are often
entertained by seeing, from passing
trains, great flocks of geese feeding in
the fields and watched by gooseherds.
So many feathers are yielded by these
geese that four "bed-feather markets"
are held annually at Buda-Pesth, and
at each market from 600,000 pounds to
700,000 pounds of bed feathers aro
placed on sale.
Decay of Individuality.
The decay of individuality in Eng
land, says the London Graphic, is a
most curious circumstance, and it is
this that is injuring our literature and
art There is scarcely a writer who
iares to strike out In a new line; his
work would probably be rejected, how
ever good it was. It is the same with
art. What ordinary Englishman now
ventures even to dress differently

turn. A lady who unconsciously drifted
into nervous prostration brought on by
coffee, says:
"I have been a coffee drinker all
my life, and used it regularly, three
times a day.
"A year or two ago I became sub
ject to nervous neuralgia, attacks of
nervous headache and general ner
vous prostration which not only in
capacitated me for doing my house
work, but frequently made it neces
sary for me to remain hi a dark room
for two or three days at a time.
"I employed several good doctors,
one after the other, but none of them
was able to give me permanent relief.
"Eight months ago a friend sug
gested that perhaps coffee was the
cause of my troubles and that I try
Postum Food Coffee and give up the
old kind. I am glad I took her advice,
for my health has been entirely re
stored. I have no more neuralgia, nor
have I had one solitary headache in
all these eight months. No more of
my days are wasted in solitary con
finement in a dark room. I do all my
own work with ease. The flesh that
I lost during the years of my nervous
prostration has come back to me
during these months, and I am once
more a happy, healthy woman. I en

The steady use of a particular set of
Muscles tends to chronic fatigue, which
produces faulty or difficult motion,
trembling, cramps and even paralysis.
Writers, telegraphers, tailors and seam
stresses are among the classes most
threatened in this way with the loss o!
their power to earn a living. The fol
lowing instance shows that nerve powet
may be recovered after it seems entirely
lost, if the right means are taken. Mrs.
O. S. Blacksten, of No. 684 North Bow
man street, Mansfield, Ohio, cays :
"For years my hands would become
so numb at times that I would- drop
anything I attempted to lift. Letei
they became so bad that I could not sew
any longer, and at last I could scarcely
do anything at all with my hands. At
night the pricking sensations wonld
couie on worse than ever, and my hands
and arms would pain so that I dreaded
to go to bed. My f am ily doctor gave me
some nerve tablets. They helped me a
little, but only for a short time after I
had taken them and if I happened to be
without them for a day or two I would
be as bad as ever or even worse. Family
I got a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
and began to take tnem.
The resnlt was surprising. By the
time I had taken the last pill in my first
box I could see a gain. Thanks to Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, lam now all right
I can sleep undisturbed by pain, and for
two years I have been as well as ever."

Look to Future Lumber Supply.
The rules and 'regulations adopted
by a large lumber comapny in Louis
iana promise to so cut its timber that
it will never be exhausted, only the
surplus timber being cut and steps
being taken to plant all cleared areas
in young trees, say that there will al
ways be a supply for the mills, and
it would be well if this policy were
generally pursued as a measure of pro
tection against inadequate supply in
the future.

An Honest Opinion.
Mineral, Idaho, Oct. 16th. (Spe
cial.) That a sure cur,e has been dis
covered for those sciatic pains that
make so many lives miserable is the
firm opinion of Mr. D. S. Colson, a
well-known resident of this place, and
he does not hesitate to say that cure
Is Dodd's Kidney Pills. The reason
Mr. Colson is so firm in his opinion
is that he had those terrible pains and
Is cured. Speaking of the matter he
says:
"I am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. I had awful pains in my hip so
I could hardly walk. Dodd's Kidney
Pills stopped it entirely. I think they
are a grand medicine."
All Sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kid
neys and healthy kidneys strain all
the Uric Acid out of the blood. With
the cause removed there can be no
Rheumatism or Sciatica.

FEVER AT INSANE HOSPITAL
Eighteen Cases of Typhoid at Insti
tute at the Present Time
LINCOLN The appeal of Superin
tendent Green of the Lincoln hospital
for the insane to the State Board
of Public Lands and Buildings for as
sistance disclosed the fact that the
institution has a serious epidemic of
typhoid fever which has infected nine
teen persons, who are now isolated,
with the possibility that many more
of the 600 patients may have received
the bacilli into their systems. Dr.
Greene said that it is difficult to de
termine just how wide-spread the
ravages of the disease will be because
of the fact that it takes two weeks for
the incubation of the bacilli, when
once they have entered the human
system. The state board has authoriz
ed the use of every possible means
in fighting the disease.

ender, a big bag of pine needles, a
small sack of catnip, a bunch of clover
tied in a pillow case, will give a sweet
scent and put one to sleep. Ttfese
bags are invaluable to have around
if one is nervous. Whatever may be
the trouble with your nerves you can
bo sure that there is a reir.edy for you
and for them.
Queer Medical Prescription.
An official report to Parliament on

writes extracts from the Koran in
Arabic on a wooden tablet The tab

William English and Milton Davis

sins, walnuts and wine, as naturally
as hook and eye, or shovel and tongs.
The heavy nut oils demand a correct
ive in the form of acid or alkali.
To Refill the Ocean.
It has been computed by geograph

the vacant space, allowing nothing for
evaporation, 40.000 years would be
required to bring the water of the
ocean up to its present level.
True Americans Left

dishonesty. Los Angeles Times.
