Frisco Line to st. Louis and the East

The St. Louis & San Francisco railway
is now the only line running Pullman
Palace sleeping cars from Wichita to st.
Louis without change; and in addition to
this service they also run elegant free re-
Ginning chair cars and handsome day
coaches between the two mentioned cities.
The Frisco line is the shortest and
quickest line under one management be-
tween Wichita and St. Louis, and has for
years furnished to its patrons an unsur
passed through train service, not being
dependent upon connecting lines to make
through route as is the case with other
lines, consequently the delay so vexatious
to travellers are not encountered. Only
one change of cars to Boston, New York
and other principal intermediate cities.
Trains leave Oak street union depot at

him on the shores of Tanganyiki and
| was amazed when | realized that it
was his sublime devotion to science
that kept him, sick and faint, at his
work of exploration" When Stanley
pleaded with Livingstone to go home
and rest the grand old man answered;
mo, | must finish my task. My
children's letters affect me deeply,
but | cannot bring my heart to aban-
don my work. | will go on till |
finish it." He perished among the
marshes OF Bangweolo, but the story
Of his unselfsh tolls and ye rs of
patient doing in the heart of Africa
thrilled the world and gave an i'm
petus to exploration that has made
the last ten years the greatest of
geographical discovery since the day
of Co'umbus. The crown of none
of the worlds heroes is brighter than
which has been awarded to this
simple-minded great man by the
common voice of mankind.
Scores Of men of science are ex-
employing in their daily toll the
courage, perseverance and grit it
takes to make men Of mark in anv
line OF life. A few years ago DR..
Holub, the botanist, unable to get
financial aid at home landed in
South Africa with seven dollars in
his pocket and with the firm purpose
of spending years there in scientific
labors. By the practice of medicine
in the diamond fields he secured the
means that enabled him to give nearly
seven years to exploration and scien-
tihc inquiry. With infinite care,
patience and labor a little band of
scientists is today studying in Vienna
some thirty thousand fragments of
the records OF Egyptian history,
which for nine centuries were pre-
served under the sands of Fayoum.
The learned men who for the past
three years have been deciphering
these fragments written in eleven
languages are hardly known except
among scholars like themselves.
Their labors are yielding them
merely modest income, but they
are giving to the world consecutive
history of Egypt for the first thou
sand years of our era and are set
ting doubtful facts and dates that
have been stumbling blocks to the
historians OF the Roman Empire.
Their chief reward will be the thought
that has been the sole stimulus of so
many heroes of science-the con-
sciousness that they are shedding
a new light on history and adding
new facts to human knowledge.

Love and a Tragedy.

Jules Donat and the little Francisco
lived on the same flat in Champion
net street at Paris. They first met
some months ago, when he was near
IS and she just past IA. They liked
each other, and the parents allowed
Jules to visit their daughter every
evening and stop till late. 1t was in
the first week of the month when
the couple went into the country and
did not get back until the next day.
On their arrival the girls parents
proceed to have Jules arrested for
leading astray a girl under age.
Then the lovers met and took poison.
In the morning the old people found

FACTS ABOUT 1888.
When the Holidays Come-Eclipses of tho
Moon and Sun.

When the Holidays Come-Eclipses of tho
Moon and Sun.
1t is leap year. February has
twenty-nine days.
Washington's Birthday falls on

on Wednesday. The 18th of June
anniversary of the battle of
Bunker HID is Sunday which means

lowed. Christmas will fall on Tues

Apparent Size of tie Moon,

1t is well-known fact that people
see full moon with different esti-
mates of its apparent size. The disk
of the moon being removed from all
terrestrial objects, we have no means
of judging of its size by comparison
with those of known magnitudes,
and the eye unconsciously gives it a
greater diameter than an actual
measurement would indicate. The
same illusion is observed in looking
at the moon through a telescope,
when the magnified image appears
smaller than when seen by the naked
eye.

"A Slight Cold"

May be the precursor of long and
fatal illness. A cough, which seems a
mere trife at first, is often the begin
ming of the end" Colds are usually
attended with fever, loss Of appetite,
and other symptoms which, if neglected,
may speedily terminate in Pneumonia
or gradually lead to Consumption.
The experience of half century has
proved that no remedy is more effective
in all lung troubles than Ayers Cherry
Pectoral. 1t would be easy to cite
scores of instances where the timely use
of this medicine has soothed bronchial
irritation, relieved severe coughing, ar
rested Inflammation, and theieby saved
life. Being at hand, it has often proved
the cheapest and most effective means
of curing disease, and therefore the

Pneumonia

Usually selects it's victims among the
aged, who are naturally not so well able
to resist disease as when they were
young and vigorous. Reluctant, how
ever, to acknowledge the change, they
neglect the first symptoms, and often
with serious results. A dose or two of
Ayers Cherry Pectoral arrests inflam-
nation, stops coughing, induces sleep,
and checks the disease in its first stages.
"Two years ago, after an attack of
Pneumonia, was troubled with very
severe cough, which kept my throat in
such a state of Inflammation that 1 had
frequent hem orrhages. 1 began to take
Ayers Cherry Pectoral, which relieved
me at once. After taking one bottle of
the Pectoral, my cough was cured and

Il am usually very good at remem-
bering names," said Senator Davis of
Minnesota, "but l did get stuck once
under the most embarrassing circum-
stances. | was sitting in my office at
St. Paul when in came a man whom |
was delighted to see and who was de
lighted to see me. We had been
raised as boys together, had enlisted
in the same company and served
through the war together, he being the
lieutenant of the company of which l
was captain. l knew him as well as
my own brother and as we had not met
for many years l was glad to give him
a genuine hearty welcome, but for the
life of me couldn't think OF his name.
He remained with me all the morning
and invited him to go to my house to
stop. He consented to do so, and as
it approached dinner time I com
menced to grow very nervous, for OF
course | would have to introduce him
to my family, and | couldn't ask my
old chum and comrade what his name
was. Finally l thought of funny ex
pedient. Getting pen and sheet Of
paper told him thought it would be
a good idea tor us to join in letter to
another of our comrades with whom we
were both very intimate during the war.
He approved the suggestion and l
wrote couple of pages, telling our
friend how pleasant it was to meet
again and wishing that he was with US.
Then l signed my name and passed
the paper over to him. Much to my
relief, he signed his full name and |
was saved from the impending mortif-
cation"
