Hoods SarsaparilIa
Makes Pure Blood


A pretty girl story comes from
abroad. In trial in Siena. the other
day. one of the witnesses was a very
pretty servant maid of the name of
Giovannina Galardi. On entering the
witness box she was received with
signs OF admiration by the jury, by
counsel and by all present. She stood
facing the Judge, who said to her:
''I beg you, my pretty girl, to turn
also toward the jury, as | do not wish
it to be said that | alone have the
privilege OF admiring your beauty.
Great laughter followed this remark.
On leaving the witness box, at the
end OF her examination, she was fol-
lowed by murmurs of admiration. In
an account of the trial given by a
leading local newspaper, it was stated
that she was a great success, and
should have the first prize for beauty.
The Judge doubtless forgot his law
and hummed an old love tune in court
that day. If the girl had gone out
raking hay. the Judge would have ad-
journed and made grass OF himself.

Cow-Like Eyes.

The necessity OF exercising care in
the choice of epithets for use in
making complimentary speeches came
home with peculiar force to a German
town young man few days ago. He
had been calling for some time upon a
very charming young lady. whose most
prominent features were her liquid
brown eyes. The beauty of these
eyes particularly impressed itself
upon the susceptible Germantown
youth. One day he met the young
lady's most particular friend, and the
conversation naturally turned upon
the absent fair one. The young man,
wishing to say something nice about
her. remarked upon the "cow-like
expression of her eyes," OF course,
the particular friend told the young
lady what the youth had said, and
the young lady not knowing that the
COW has the most beautiful eyes of
any animal, human or brute, became
very indignant, and now she doesn't
speak to the young Germantown
youth. He, on his part, is inclined to
believe that the young girls friend
told the other that he had said 'she
looked like a cow"

About the Moon.

One OF the latest theories which
Is said to be receiving general accept
ance- concerning the moons face
assumes that the material cOnstitut-
ing that luminary once surrounded
the earth in the front of Saturnian
ring, and that the small bodies Of
this ring coalesced, first gathering
around large body OF nuclei and
finally all uniting in single sphere,
the moon, the lunar craters being the
cars resulting from this collision OF
the .'moonlets."

SUSAN AND THE MULE.
She Was Shrewd Girl, But He Wor
Her for Ills WFe.

l was sitting out in front of the
tavern in the West Virginia mountain
town where made my headquarters
one summer, says a wr1er in Harper's
Bazar, when lank mountainecr,
about 20 years old, rode up on mule
and greeted me by name, although |
could not exactly place him. He dis
mounted, and, coming to where | was,
he sat down quite close to me.
Colonel" he said, in a low, curious
tone, "you kin respeck a mas feel
ms, CANT yer?"
81 think I can if ! know where
they are," l answered, slightly un-
certain as to what he expoctad of me.
"Well, I'm in this sort of fix" he
proceeded, very confidentially, after
giving a hitch to the box he was
sitting on. 1--WE been goin' to see
old man Mullins gal Susan, an she's
tuck to me like a wet kitten to hot
brick, but she kinder bankers after
money"
"Most women do" ventured.
81 reckon you're more'n half right, :"
he admitted. with sigh. anyhow,
Susan tol' me to-day l wuz too pore,
an when l disputed the pint, she
said ez how / didn't have cent ter
my name; an when l tot her she
didn't know what she was talkin'
about, she up an said she did, that if
| could show her 81 she'd nab me in
two shakes NV lambs tail. Then l
SAID, l did, ez how I'd have to go
home after it, an l come ter yN.
You gil me the money an hOr that
mule fer hit till l get back yer agin,
won't yer?"
The proposition seemed fair enough,
for the young man was honest and
very earnest, so / held the mule and
he went away on foot, holding the 81.
While he was gone l got to thinking,
and when he came back lay for him.
''Did you get her?" l asked, as | re-
turned the 81 to my pocket.
"In course l did," he replied tri-
umphantly, ''fer Susan's gal NV her
word"
'By the way" 1 asked, as he
mounted the mule, "why did you
come to me for the money. The mule
is worth a good deal more than 81.
Why didn't you call the young lady's
attention to that?"
He winked slyly as he dug his heels
into the mules ribs.
"'Caze, colonel" he laughed aloud,
"Susan knew hit warn't my mule"
Then, as he rode merrily toward
Susan's, l pondered profoundly on
what queer little cuss Cupid is.

corset almost caused her death. Her
skirt caught fire at the kitchen stove.
She screamed. and the rescuer tore
the burning garment Off, but the cor
set blazed in spite OF all that could be
done until the girl was immersed in a
bathtub of water. Her injuries are
serious, but she may recover. Long
since the dude discovered that the
celluloid collars and cuffs were likely
to blow him up from cigarette
sparks. and he would sooner turn &
paper collar than risk a new celluloid

Only $40 q Year.

Each family of standing in Honolu-
lu keeps telephone, for which the
charge is $40 year. The invitations
to all social functions are sent by tele-
phone. This is not. only saving to
the hostess in the matter of cards
and postage, but it also obiviates
the necessity OF the physical labor
that attaches to such work. Some
houses have dozen telephones scat
tered about the different rooms. so
that the family may communicate
with friends without having to leave
their chairs.

The number he finds to have been

details. he declares that over 100000
of these steps were taken in going
up and down stairs. The value OF
statistics can never be overestimated.
They can be used to prove any use

prove. When the Swiss counter can

THE KENSINGTON RIPPER.
Two Women Encountered Her and
Escaped With Slight Injury.

Two Women Encountered Her and
Escaped With Slight Injury.
A lady who shared the late Kensing-
ton panic was going home one after
noon, writes James Payn in the Illus
trated London News, when in a lone
ly part of her road a woman respect
ably dressed asked her the way to the
very square in which she lived.
Thinking this a certain prelude to the
usual stab with knife, the lady,
with great presence of mind, hit her
interrogation two violent blows in the
face with the handle of her umbrella,
which put her to flight, and ran home
at the top of her speed. 1t was an
adventure of which she thought she
had some reason to be proud, though
it rather upset her. She had adver-
tised for a cook, and at o'clock
she was expecting person to call
upon her for the situation. She did
not arrive, however, till nearly six,
and then not in a very presentable
condition. A bandage was on her
forehead and some sticking plaster
over her nose. II am sorry" she
said, ''to be late, ma'am, but l have
had a frightful adventure. 1 asked
my way to your house of person
who almost looked like lady, and
she up with her umbrella and knocked
me about most dreadful; however, 1
