In spite of the protests of inven-
tors, and those who believe they
have investigated everything since
the deluge, that there is nothing
new under the sun, the Psalmist
was right when he put that thought
into the colloquial language On the
Assyrian slabs, and on more than
one old European fresco. is seen the
paddle wheel for boats. although the
propeller is not in evidence. The
bicycle seems to have been known in
China more than 200 years ago, and
the velocipede was seen in Europe
even before that. On page Of the
ancient painted glass in the old
church at Stoke Pogis, England, may
be seen the representation of young
fellow astride of one of these ma
chimes. He is working his way along
with the air OF rider who has in
troduced novelty, and is the object
of the unbounded admiration of q
multitude OF witnesses.

Why Railway Bob" Is Famous:

Railway Bob" is the name of q
famous dog in Australia. He passes
his whole existence on the train, his
favorite seat being on the top of the
coalbox. In this way he has travel
ed many thousands Of miles, going
over all the lines in South Australia.
He is well known in Victoria, FREE
quently seen in Sydney. and has been
up as far as Brisbane. The most
curious part Of his conduct Is that
he has no master, but every engine
driver is his friend. At night he fol-
lows home the engine driver Of the
day, never leaving him or letting him
out Of his sight until they are back
in the railway station In the morning.,
when he starts of on another of his
ceaseless journeyings.

A strange custom, dating back to
abe dark ages. has survived in some
of the mountain districts in Austria
the painting Of skulls. The small
size of most cemeteries In those re-
gions makes it necessary to regularly
remove the skeletons OF the buried
who have lain there eight or ten
years, to make room for newcomers
The relatives OF the dead thus to be
exhumed are generally notified be-
fore the removal so that they can at
tend to the cleaning OF the skeleton
and be present at its deposit in the
so-called "bone-house" or "charnel-
house." On such occasions the skull
is often ornamented with paintings,
representing rosaries, wreaths,
snakes, &C., or it is marked with the
name OF the dead person.

Tree Climbing Rabbits.


1t seems almost stretch of the
Imagination to think of rabbits climb
ing trees. Yet In Australia many
rabbits have somehow acquired the
tree climbing habit, having been
forced, on account of the persecu-
lions of dogs and other animals, to
drop burrowing and initiate squir-
rels. An Australian sent on to Eng
land recently the two front feet of q
rabbit that had been killed on an
acacia, three yards from the ground,
and he wrote In his letter that this
was not at all remarkable thing,
and he had often found them, or at
least the traces OF their claws, on the
bark OF trees four, five and six yards
high.

DIGESTION AND WORK.
HOW SICK PEOPLE MAY SAVE
THEIR ENERGY.


1t is as hard work for some people to d.
gest their dinner as 1t is for a normal
man to walk ten miles.
After dinner rest awhile" This is an
old saying. 1t means that if after eating
heavy meal you try to do hard work
you will exhaust all your energy. There
will be none left for your stomach. Your
stomach needs energy to work just as
your leg or arm does.
Sick people want energy. They seldom
have enough for their stomach. Their d.
gestion is out of order and they want
TO know the reason. It's simple enough
as we have told it.
What they ought to do is to save their
stomachs from hard work until it is capa-
Bile of doing 1t, just as they rest their
tired backs by lying down.
This they can do by using artifcially
digested food. Shaker Digestive Cordial
contains such food; not only this, but
it is capable of digesting other foods in
the stomach.
Shaker Digestive Cordial affords nour-
ishment and creates new energy as soon
as it is swallowed. Ordinary food first
has to be digested. Shaker Digestive Cor
dial while creating new energy does not
expend any. 1t gives the stomach no
work to do. 1t will make thin people fat
Sick people are naturally thin. Getting
thin is a sign of sickness. A person may
be born thin, and naturally remain so.
Such a one is not necessarily sick. All
druggists keep 1t and a 10 cent sample
bottle may first be tried.
