German
Syrup"

The majority of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-
stitution itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do
the leaves of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that is
coughed up is those
Disease. parts of the lungs
which have been
gnawed off and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in Our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them, expells them, heals the places
they leave, and so nourish and
soothe that, in short time consump-
tives become germ-proof and well. y

In the beginning God created heaven and earth and all things therein He then created man and woman and left the loafers on the corners, and in due time they multi piled and spread into the depot, post office and stores. In the latter place they sit and explain state and nation al problems that have vexed great minds and exist partially by sam bling goods While he is thus en- gagged his wife is out washing for her neighbors, and the poor helpless children are left at home to care for themselves as best they can.

peene,t LnLe In the world.

By far the deepest lake known in the world is Lake Bailal, in Siberia. T. is in every way comparable with some of the great lakes of America for, while it's area is only 9, 900 square miles, making it much smaller than the three largest of our five great lakes and about the exact equal to Lake Erie in superficial extent, its enormous depth, 4,O0O to 5000 feet, makes the total volume of it's waters almost equal to those of Lake Supe- rioc. Its level is 1850 feet above that of the Pacific ocean, but, not withstanding, it's bottom is moro than 8, 900 feet below it.
 There are many other deep lakes in the world, but so far Baikal takes the palm. Lake Maggiore is 5000 feet deep, Lake Como 2,OOO and Lego di-Garda, anether Italian lake, near ly 1900 feet in depth. Lake Con stance averages about 1 ,0OO feet, and Lakes Superior and Michigan about 800 feet.-St. Louis Republic.

Nothing is more difficult than to push through congress the most just claim against Uncle Sam.

Much of the labor in cidental to che settlement of claims under existing laws is caused by claim agents Many of them are moi very reputable peraOus.

Protection from Mosquitoes of e Man

 There is nearly always a crowd of blue uniformed men lettering about the Central police station. Theplace seems to have an attraction for them when off duty
 One of the most entertaining story telleIs is Officer James Hendricks, Sr, but 1t must be admitted that many of his narratives will not bear too close an examination. Yesterday af ternoon he was in his happiest mood, and there was a lively ratthng of rheumatic bones when he remarked;
 New Jersey is noted for its mos quitoes principally. l have often heard my grandfather tell of re- markable incident that occurred to him near Newark He had just ar rived in the town and put up at a small hotel where there were no mosquito bars, and a man with a leather skin would wake up and find much of himself missing, My grand father was not aCclimated and his flesh was as tender as a love poem, so he spent the afternoon wandering about and wondering what he would do when he met the winged soldiers in battle array.
 He was tho softest hearted man you ever saw, I've known him send money to the starving heroine in a play at the theatcr, and once he bought pound of lard to grease a squealling coal cart wheel The ve- hicle seemed to be in pain, he said, and it brought tears to his eyes to witness it's apparent suffering
 While nay grandfather was walk, ing along he noticed a large yellow spider in the street. It was a beau tiful creature and the old gentleman paused a moment to admire its gor geous coloring. Just thun a wagon dashed up and in another moment the spider would have been crushed to death beneath the wheels At the risk of his life grandfather stopped the horse and bore the frightened spider to a place of safety,
 1t seemed somewhat dazed and un able to care for itself, and he finally put t in little box and carried it up to his room There he whiled away the time feeding it flies and otherwise ministering to its comfort At length the supper bell rang, and grandfather left his little guest crawling about the room and having a splendid time
 At supper the tough skinned na. tives looked at my relatives delicate features and exchanged wicked winks. They thought of the feast the mosquitoes would have. But he went to bed, and all night long he slept peacefully and undistuibed That spider out of pure gratitude had woven a web over the bed and caught every mosquito that entered the room, When grandfather awoke it was killing the few that were not already dead The story got out and there was such a rush to see the won, derful spectacle that the landlord charged an admityance fee and made a fortune out of it.
 When he had finished, the silence was mbroken, save by the jerky ticking of Captain Basler's Water bury, as it struggled to make up the fifteen minutes time it had lost in the last half hour. Louisville Post.

 Nothing IS so easily spoiled as a child. Walk with your little babe Q few nights when you wish to put it to sleep; or accusten it to rocking, then attempt to put it to sleep with out this habit, and sec how difficult it will be to get it to sleep, The parent must from the beginning of the child's existence do those things to which the child is to conform. It is allowing children to have their own way during the first few years of their lives that makes them so hard to control Before they are able to talk they are being nodded by the actions of those around them.
 It is therefore highly important that from the beginning the best in fluenco and example should be about tho child. It is a serious mistake in parents to commit their children wholly into the hands of a nurse. No parent can afford to do this, even though she have very kind and careful nurse Every mother desires that her child bear tho impress of her own image This cannot be when it is with the nurse more than with the mother
 Few people have any idea of the extent of the part performed by nurses in the formation of society Many a mother wonders where her son or her daughter learned these things or formed that habit, or heard such and such an expression. Let her listen few minutes at the nursery door and all will be made plain. -Housekeeper.

Strong as is the constitution of the donkey, the animal lacks vital forcs to supply the needs of both ears and tail, and the latter suffers. As the donkey realizes what a ridiculous failure his tail is, it makes him mad and causes him to kick habitually, thus placing all who cultivate his ac- quaintance in continual peril. The remedy is simple Remove the ears, thus restoring the constitutional equilibrium, and see what a beauti- ful tail will develop and how the donkey's disposition to kick will dis appear Hartford Times.
