Two GREAT REMEDIES,

The human citadel is open to attacks
from two sources and aside from accidents
these two are the avenues from which all
of the maladies that afflict the race spring.
The first of these are what is known as
the excretory organs-the lungs. the kid
neys and the skin. These suffer from
congestion which takes the form Of colds.
Starting from what is called cold the
maladies that result are wide spread rang
ing from a cough to consumption. They
attack all ages and all stations. No one
IS free from these troubles. There is,
however, a remedy that is safeguard.
This is RElD'S GERMAN COUGH
AND KIDNEY CURE. 1t contains no
poison, and it will heal any form Of lung
trouble or any malady that arises from a
cold. The other class of disease arise
from arrangement of the digestive organs
and result in constipation. When the
bowels do not act the stomach soon refuses
to digest the food and we are troubled
with indigestion and long train Of dis
orders that embrace a large range of mala-
dies. THE LAXATIVE GUM DROPS
will correct any difficulty of this sort.
They contain nothing deleterious, but are
safe and pleasant. Get them of any dealer.

Fashion Makes Women Cosmopolite.

. A young lady who had travelled tn
Finland, and who had dear friend
there, asked, out of curiosity, in le*-
ter which she wrote to her friend Last
summer, what the Finnish girls were
wearing, and received an answer to
this effect: 1.-THE girls in Finland have
q very pretty costume this year. It
consists of blue serge skirt and bla.
Ger, silk shirt and road-brimmed
sailor hat. Many, many girls wear
this costume; see them in 1t, pass,s~ in
front of the house, as write" TIE
American girl smiled. What COM
mentary on the universally of fashions
at the end of the nineteenth century.
Undoubtedly the girls in the state Of
Washington and the colony of British
Columbia and in Honolulu and Mel
bourne were wearing the same blue
suits and sailor hats that the girls In
He1singfors and st. Petersburg were;
and when they got ont of car proba-
bly, they smoothed them down at the
small of the back with the back Of one
hand in exactly the same way. That
movement, by the way, is tho most
universal and characteristic gesture of
the woman of the present day; it is
much more habitual even than sitting
on the foot, or putting both hands at
the back Of the head to see If the hair
is coming down.-Boston Transcript.

Goats Milk.


The great prevalence Of tuberculosis
among cows, and the consequent dan.
ger OF contamination with this disease
through the use Of milk, has given re.
Gently prominence to the fact that goats
milk is not subject to tuberculosis, and
hence the danger attending the use OF
cows milk does not exist when goats
milkis employed. Milk of the ass has
also neen recommended for the same
reason, but goats milk is evidently, on
many accounts preferable to that. NJ.
Nocard, an eminent French authority
= quoted as saying that out Of the
many thousands of cows, goats and
kids slaughtered at Paris every spring.
the meat inspectors have failed to dis
covered . single case Of tuberculosis
OF course cows milk may be rendered
sterile and free from danger by boiling,
but one does not relish the idea of using
milk from diseased animals, even if the
germs be dead. It is quite possible that
goats milk may come into general use
within the next decade.-Good Health.

A Conductor vith \ He.rt.


There is q street car conductor in
this city who deserves medal of value
unlimited. He has heart so big that it
envelopes ell the poor children on the
East side with kindly sympathy. He
runs Belt line car, and almost every
warm afternoon he carries several
loads of children down to the wharves
and the battery, where they sit or run
about for honrs, getting such benefit
IS they can from the cooling breezes
Of the water. The children range in
age from fourteen years down to one
year. They all know big Frank, !"
and they will wait patiently in the hot
sun half an hour or an hour for his car
to come along. He helps them on and
oH the car with the tenderness of a
mother. calling each ono by name and
frequently sending cheering messages

luently does he silently press coin

Man and Fisl,.

On board the schooner Dauntless 10
Gently party of yachtmen were dis
cussing tarpon fishing, and the strength
of man compared with that big fish.
Commodore Colt claimed that with .
rod and line he would land the best
swimmer in the party. Ollie Adams, !
powerful swimmer, disputed the asser.
ton, SO it was decided to settle the
question at once. Ono Of the sailors
made q strong net work Of cord, which
was placed around Adams shoulders.
The line was fastened to his back, and
Adams Owed overheard. Colt held the
rod, and commenced to play his human
fish. In half IN hour Adams was
brought alongside the Daunt1ess ex.
hausted. 1t took Adams q whole day
to recover from his effort, but Commo
dore Colt did not feel the effects Of his
exertions beyond q little soreness n
his side, where the rod rubbed against

COLUMBUS DEATH.

He Expired ROBBED In tho Somber Habit
of q Franciscan.
The great world-finder, to whose
memory much honor is due and given,
was in his time variously known as
Christopher Columbus, Cristobal Colon
and Christophoro Colombo. Colon is
the one which appears on the inner lid
of the small leaden case which contains
all that now is left of the mortal part
of the great navigator.
He, worn out with age, hard work
and bad treatment, died on May 20,
1906, at the age of seventy, and was
buried at Valladolid, in Spain.
The Feast of the Ascension was the
day of his death; and he died robed in
q franciscan habit, as his beloved
queen and protector had done.
The cold and heartless Ferdinand
gave Columbus a grand funeral, think.
ing to do himself honor by it, and
seven years afterwards he reared ia
Columbus marble tomb, whose in.
scription has since become famous,
both for itself and the memory of him
who lay beneath.
His remains were afterwards taken
to Seville and placed with the body Of

In 1906, after the cession of San Do

dug up and placed in the cathedral OF

The Size OF the Earth.

To us who live upon it the earth
seems to be . very large affair, and
men have been found who would be
content to own as little as tenth Of it.
In comparison with some other bodies,
however, it is small almost TO the point
OF insignificance. Five hundred earths
like our own placed side BY side could
be easily encircled by the outermost
ring of Saturn; and if by any process
we could hollow out the sun, It would
require three hundred thousand globes
like our own to I'll the space thus ere
.ated. In spite Of all this, however, the
world is large enough for our purposes,
and, for all we know. more comfort
able to live upon than any other planet
IL the universe. - Harper's Young
