finds himself. Western Oaxaca is more
prolific and fertile than the valley of the
Nile, hence living is 30 cheap. But the
products of that country, like those OF
her neighboring states, are highly priced
in the marts of the whole world And
the demand for them is steadily in
creasing. India rubber, precious woods,
coffee, sugar, tobacco, cacao, vanilla,
ixtle (hemp), indigo, cotton, tropical
fruits and cattle are her staples, all of
the best quality and easily sent to mar
ket.
A few years ago Mexican company

million acres of choice lands in a GER

ing on the Pacific, with numerous riv-
ers, two harbore, good roads and the GER
tainty of railroad now being rapidly
extended from Mexico City into the
district, together with a most valuable
concession providing for the planting of
$4,000, GOO rubber trees on these lands.
the government paying the owners OF
the land cents cash for every tree
planted, and admitting free of duty
everything needed for the plantation.
The subsidy amounts to $3.50, 900, and is
payable whenever 100000 trees have
been planted. One million trees are al
ready growing and forming the nucleus
of vast and steadily increasing fortune.
This land is of easy access. two Royal
Mail steamers touching twice a month
at its two harbors. The title is absolute
and cannot be forfeited by failure of car
rying out the concession. The land can
be subdivided and sold to colonists, who
will enjoy all the privileges of the colo

Now, suppose the Chinese were to buy
up this princely domain land the writer
begs to state that it can be bought, to-

reasonable figure and were to give the
Chinese minister guarantees that they
will emigrste and settle in Mexico, and
suppose the Chinese minister were to
bring these facts officially to the notice
of Secretary Gresham, and Secretary
Gresham to the president, and through
him to congress, wouldn't congress be
justified to facilitate the solution of this

F. P. MOODY: We sell twice as much Of Hoods
sarsaparilla as of anything similar
C. A. SWAN: Hoods Is the most popular sarsa-
parilla of the day.
THIRTY OTHER druggists speak similarly.
This popularity at home, where Hoods Sarsa-
psrills and its proprietors have been known for
many years, could not continue If the medicine

The Trade In Skeletons.

There lives in Philadelphia an old
Frenchman who for over a quarter of a
century has followed the profession of ''ar-
ticulator of human bones" The sign
board over his door bears the simple
legend, M de Blanque, Parfumerie." He
runs this little shop principally as decoy,
for he has found it necessary to ply his
queer trade ION the quiet" In a rear roo 1
the walls are decorated with skeletons in
all sorts of grotesque positions -Four hid
eous skulls grin from the posts of the bed,
and close by stands a skeleton with arms
outstretched, doing duty as clothes rack,
the room being lit by lamp made of a
skull, which is suspended from the ceiling
with thongs of tanned human hide.
When the Knights of Pythias were organ
lied some years ago, the demand for skele-
tons increased, as they were used to great
extent in the lodgerooms- De Blanque
prospered as a consequence. The price of
skeletons vari.s, according to their degree
of hardness and whiteness. The genuine
imported article costs anywhere from $50 to
S35, and the domestic $50, but the trade is
about lost to this country because they can
set up skeleton so much cheaper in
France.
There are old teeth dealers who sell the
product of many aching jaws to these artic-
ulators for as much as 81 a quart. They
have often to buy more than this to get a
tooth to suit, for a skeleton with full set
of teeth is worth half again its value other
wise.-Lippincott's

Sense Of DIRECTION In a Dog.

When living near Neosho Falls, Kan, a
neighbor, who was a market bird hunter,
went from there to western Missouri for
the purpose of hunting quails and prairie
chickens in the fall of the year. He took
with him favorite pointer dog. The route
taken was southwark some so miles to Par
sons, Kan, by railroad, thence northeast
ward to Fort Scott, and ON into Missouri
nearly due east from the latter point. All
went very well for few days after he be-
gan hunting, but by some means the dog
became lost from him. He spent two days
hunting it, and as it was no use to try to
hunt without the dog he went home and
there found the dog all right.
According to the report of his family, the
dog had reached there within two days from
the time he had lost him, and as the dis
lance was more than rs miles it is quite GER
tain that the dog took near cut for home
Now, if this dog had no sense of direction.
what had he that led him to take what we
may confidently believe to be the straight
and true course for home when he had
passed over the other two sides of the TRAN

Ben Cables Political Books

washington lSpaICn 10 l lineage IseCofu-
Ex-Representative Gable was con-
siderably exercised today on reading
in the Philadelphia Press that hewas
hanging on to the books of the west
ern branch of the national democratic
committee in spite of efforts to dis
possess him of the records. The
paper says:
..Mr. Gable was not reelected to
congress. but very much to the as
constituent of Don Dickinson and
some others of the national commit
tee. Mr.. Gable has opened an office
for the express purpose OF looking
after federal patronage. He says his
work is for the benefit of those who
contributed and took an active part
in the democratic campaign in the
west. Mr.. Gable has all the books
which were kept at the branch office
of the committee in Chicago, with
the name of every contributor and
worker, and, although Don Dickin-
son has demanded that Mr.. Cable
turn over those books to him, Cable
refuses to do so. The young mill
lionaire with his books and clerks,
working, as he is, for the men who
helped to elect Cleveland, is a thorn
in the flesh of Don Dickinson and the
senators and congressman who seek
to control patronage in their own
behalf. At the same time it is rather
a novel thing for any man to open
an Office in Washington with the ex-
press purpose of looking after the
claims of office-seekers."
1t is true that Mr.. Gable has the
books and has set up an Office here,
but no effort has yet been made to
take the books from him, and there
is likely to be trouble if the effort is
made.
