"rhe Devil and the Deem Sen ~

The old story of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea, gets new illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria. The
story is soon told: My daughter" said a
lady, had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was all the time out of
health-pOOr appetite, disOrdered digestion,
pale earthly color, pain i'll the head, limbs
and back. and every now and then a right
hard chill, followed by fever. Then we
would send for our doctor and he would
prescribe quinne. just as he did from the
frst-and so kept doing all alOng-until the
name of quinine sounds like the tolIing OF
the bell. Clearly between tine two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name is
varied, and it is called some other inc in
place of Quinine. but it is all the same-the
old firm with new sign. In this dilema
lady friend said: Why not try Humph-
rey'S Homeopathic Specifics, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen | tried them. They were a sue
cess from the first, and not only cured the
malaria. but restored her to perfect health.

Henry VI. Stanley. the greatest of the
worlds explorers and diScOverers now liv.
ing. has returned 10 America. He was
formerly a newspaper correspondent but
has Of late years given his time almost
wholly to travel and discovery in Africa and
To the writing of books. Through his tre-
mendous enterprise and ability he has
accomplished much for civilization and
commerce and has reflected great honor
upon America. After saying to a newspa-
per man that Africa was a great country
and could be utilized to great advantage BY
civilized nations with railroads in operation
up the Congo he spoke of this country As
follows:
America is a prosperous country. but still
they published reports in England that
there is no money TO be made here. But

and shall travel about the country as far as
the Mississippi river.
Mr.. Stanley was received by the Lotus
club, Saturday evenlng-NhtelaNR Reid of
the New York Tribune, presiding. and his
utterances are outlined in the following
from an Associated Press report:
Mr. Stanley was introduced. and reviewed
his three African trips: First, in search of
Livingstone; second, to follow up the great
Nile problem opened through Livingstone
and third. to ascertain if the river in the
exploration of which Livingstone lost his
life. was the Nile. Mr.. Stanley described
his journey up the river through many
months and how he at last found that the
unknown river was the Congo.
The speaker alluded 10 the conference of
the fourteen powers called by Bismarck at
Berlin and the gift of a charter to the king
of the BelgiRns 10 form free state on the
Congo To this free state, containing a
million and a half of people, the king had

How about the branding OF calves,
Yes, that was and is, a favorite lie
among the cattle growers. Annually
the spring roundup starts out Say that
the books of the ranch show that there
should be 1000 cows on the range
Without a smile, without the slightest
drOOp of an eyelid, the cattle growers
and their cowboys report that the in
crease of calves is so per cent. by actual
count, Of the number of cows the book
represents to be on the range. Every
man of them knows that if the book calls
for loo cows, that not more than $50 Of
them are alive and on the range. They
know that the rest lie dead in the forests,
or on the fianks of the foot hills, or in
ravines where they were showed under,
OF on the arid plains. And every man
on the roundup knows that not more
than POO calves were branded and saved.
The lying report is given to the local
press (Which is supported by the cattle
growerSj that the Roaring Bull Cattle
Growing association has branded 80 per
cent. of calves, and editorial comment is
made on the great crop Of calves dropped,
and editorial congratulations are ex-
tended to the cattle growers on the pros
perity of their business. That evening,
after reading the paper, the cowboys and
cattle growers alike say: "Shovepen is q
daisy. Here's to him." and glasses are
lifted to weather cracked lips and their
contents are tilted down alkaline burned
throats. Many cattle growers, who have
been driven out of the business By
heavy losses, have told me within the
T'ast two months that not more than 40
per cent of tie cows they actually owned
ever saved their calves. And one bright,
truthful cattle grower, who had lost s42,-
600 in handling cattle on the Grand En-
campment river in Wyoming, assured
me in exceedingly vigorous language
that his cows did not, during the five
Jears he had them, average over 20 per
cent. increase.-Frank Wilkeson in New

counterfeiting NlckeI. and Old Coin.

The COunterfeiting at present is con-
fined almost entirely to the coin issues Of
the government. 1t is not generally
known that the nickels and the pennies
are very successfully counterfeited, and
that there is no possible means of de-
tcctfng the spurious from the genuine.
The niCkclS afford very handsome profit.
All the COunterfeiters have to do is to 90
20 the Revised Statutes and there they
find the materials to be used in their
making. All of the metal employed Is
base. A nickel costs the government
about IA cents. II the government
had the exclusive manufacture of these
coins there would he great profit in
them But the coin can be so easily re
produced that there is no means Of esti-
mating how many of them are put out Of
the counterfeit class. If the government
should decide to call in this class Of coin
they would have to redeem the counter
feits as well, because they are all made
of exactly the same material as the gov
ernment ; issue The bronze pennies are
also counterfeited There is profit in
this. The bronze of which the pennies
are made costs twenty-fOur cents a
pound A pound of it will make 16O pen
rency can be detected would be for CON
gress TO change the law so that bullion to
the value of the coin can be put in 1t.
One of the latest kinds OF counterfeit
ing is the imitation of old coins for sale
TO the numismatists. One Of the most
ingenious modes of deception in this class
of work is the changing Of the dates Of
some common issue of a certain coin to
the date of year whose issue is scarce
and consequently high. The old Liberty
dollar of 1904 is very scarce. 1t is salt
that there are only seven genuine coins of
this issue in this country. The coin is
rated in numismatic catalogues at value
of $1,000 and upward The counter
feiters have been quite successful in
changing $50 issues 10 that of 1904 This
is not counterfeiting in the strict legal
sense of the word, and the treasury Off
cials would not be able TO punish anyone
for this class of otfense. But they have
exercised their power 10 put a stop TO
such work wherever they have found It
going on.-Washington Cor. New York

PAwNING HER Boys CLOTHES FOR Med
ICINE. A poor woman in Wales, whose
boy had been very ill for several years, had
expended all Of her means to pay for medi-
cine. At last the doctors gave him up and
said he must die. He suffered so terribly
with rheumatism that he could not be
moved. One day some one told her about
the Mount Lebanon Shakers. The evidence
of the curative powers of their Extract of
Roots was so convincing that she pawned
the poor boys clothes to buy bottle of the
remedy (Siegels Syrup, but now she feels
proud that size did so. for it was the means
Of curing her son. The Shakers say that
this is the result of indigestion and that the
medicine cured the dyspepiia, and that the
