Among Some of the Fairest Scenes
On this continent and in the trOp-
les, malaria poisons the atmosphere
with its pestllential breath, sowing
the seeds of disease and death in
every direction. 1t is in such local
tiles that the preventive and reme-
dial qualities of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters are most cOnspicuOusly
shown. For every form of malaria
it is a signally eficacious remedy,
and cOnquers disorders of the stom-
ach, liver and bowels, remedies in
activity of the kidneys, and cOun-
teracts the weakness and lack of
stamina which invites disease by
leveling the barrier which a vigor-
Gus operation of the digestive and
secretive organs opposes to it. No
defensive medicine in use has stron-
ger concentrations in professional
headquarters both for purity and
remedial qualities.

forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis"
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, SyrupOf Figs. prompt
lv removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes Internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts, 1t is therefore
iii important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine artl-

rOus Sheen,

The dangers Of mountain climbing
are in general pretty we'll understood,
and so can be guarded against, but Sir
w Martin Conway, in Scribner's Mag
azine. narrates a mountain adventure
of a really novel sort.
On the way to Mud Lake we had a
strange adventure, of which / was for
tunate enough to secure a photograph.
We we're approaching the highest sheep
pasture as the day waned. The sheep.
seventeen hundred in number, saw us
from the surrounding slopes, and urged
by a longing for salt, rushed down
upon us from all sides, with one united
"Baa" in a wild, %converging ava
lanche.
We beat Off the leaders, but they
could not retreat, for those behind
pressed them forward. Finding that
Carrel was the salter morsel, the whole
flock surged upon him. They lifted
him off his feet, carried him forward,
cast him to the ground and poured over
him.
Fortunately the ground was fat
When the shepherd saw what had hap
pened he whistled shrilly thrice, where

Very Polite.

The Saxons are a very polite people,
so over-polite that they not infrequent-
ly bring down ridicule upon themselves.
1t used to be told in Dresden that a
stranger in the city was one day cross
ing the great bridge that spans. the
Elbe, and asked a native to be direct
ed to u certain church which he wish
ed to find.
Really, my dear sir" said the Ores
dener, bowling low, 81 grieve greatly
to say it, but 1 cannot tell you."
The stranger passed on, q little sur
prised at this voluble answer to a SIM
pie question. He had proceeded but a
few rods, when he heard hurried foot
steps behind him, and, turning, saw
the same man running to catch up with
him.
In a moment his pursuer was by his
side, his breath nearly gone, but
enough left to say:
my dear sir, you asked me how you
could find the church, and it panied
me to have to say that l did not know.
Just now I met my brother and asked
him, but I grieve to say that he did not
know, either"
The Madisonian. (Virginia City, Mont.) 1873-1915, 1896-12-12

en- barricaded themselves In the %A'on
and anxiously awaited the result OF the
chase.
1t was about an hour later. in the un-
certain light which precedes the rising
Of the sun, that a servant discovered
the mysterious stranger ~ensconced
among the branches of a large oak. At
his call the Marquis and his guests
FASTENED to the spot.
Come down. commanded NJ. De
Kerdall, but the bandit only settled
himself deeper among the foliage n
made no response.
Come down, or l will shOot.'
And, as there was no reply, he lifted
his gun and already had his finger upon
| the trigger when the domestic hurried
~ pulled his arm, and said:
do not fire, monsieur. 1t is DR.. Corn
abuc"
And. sure enough. the blonde wig and
long redingote could now be seen among
the leaves.
But at this moment the first ray OF
sunlight cleaned in from the east and
the OAK was illuminated. The Marquis
suddenly broke into a fit of explosive
laughter, and, as his guests gazed up
into the tree, they could not keep from
following his example.
1.-The ape"
Everything was explained. The ami
NAL had escaped from his cage the pre-
vious evening and had managed to
effect an entrance into the chateau.
Animated by his instinct Of imitation,
he had first attired himself in the doc
tors effects and then wandered over
the house at his own free will.
He was put back into his prison after
some little trouble, and at daybreak the
party enjoyed a hearty laugh at the ad-
ventures Of the night.
But DR.. Cornabuc did not appear at
the table. He left the chateau at an
early horr, furious and without taking
leave.
Since this episode he has nevAr set
foot at Kerdall, and he has never lost
a feeling Of deep antipathy to Nine. De
Lartigues and Miss Hawthorne.

ATHIEFIN THE NIGHT

There was a large party at the Cha
teau de Kerdall. near Nannes.
The Marquis de kerdall n his
young wife had just returned from a
tour of the world on their yacht, during
which they had paid flying visits to
Africa, America and Oceanica. and
they had celebrated their home COM
ing by gathering together all their
friends and relatives at their beautiful
country house.
Among the guests was old DR.. Gonna
buc, an illustrious member of the Acad-
envy of Metaphysical Sciences, so orig
inal. so ahsont-minded, so venerable in
| his blonde peruke and his costume Of
the fashion of 1850. Then there was
Nine. De Lartigues. an old school
friend of the MarQuise, a brilliant n
couuettish Parisienne. And there was
Miss Hawthorne. an English nader
lady with youthful p~ropensities. And
there were many others, all OF whom
found plenty Of amusement to their
hearts content at Kerdall.
Outside of the ordinary pleasures of
life there were some unusual attrac-
tions. In the first place the host and
hostess had seen and experienced so
much that was novel and startling that
their conversation was always fascin-
ating. Then the rooms OF the castle
constituted a veritable museum, being
stocked with rare and curious objects
from two continents. And, finally, q
menagerie had been created in one cor

HirSCh'S HOOdOO,

Baron Hirsch, shortly before his
death, sold his very beautiful estate
at st. Jean, because it was too damp to
be healthy. He purchased another
through an agent and started to erect
a magnificent chateau upon 1t. After
he had expended about $4,000 on the
new property, which he intended to en-
dow as a children's hospital after his
death, he was Informed that it was even
damper than st. Jean. He went in per-
son to see, and finding the report true.
and that the property was Of no use
whatever for his benevolent purpose,
added to the thought that he had been
swindled, caused him to fly into a VIC
lent rage, which was the direct cause
Of his death.

They knew not what to think. The
mystery was growing more complicat-
ed. 1t certainly looked as though q rob-
Der had entered the chateau-perhaps
a whole band of burglars and ~assassins.
Nine. De Lartigues imagined a troop Of
brigands armed to the teeth.
Lei US hope they have no guns" said
the Marquis, to raise the hopes Of his
guests.
There was no echo to the pleasantly.
Suddenly a strange sound was heard
coming from the ground floor. 1t was
certainly the piano in the reception
| salon, but it was surely being played
by goblin fingers, and so furiously that
it seemed us though the keys must be
broken.
This is too much" cried the Mar
quis, rushing toward the staircase, with
all the crowd, excepting DR.. Cornabuc'
close behind him.
They hastily penetrated the salon. II

deceptive as a measure of the obliga-
ton Of the debtor, of the claim of the
creditor. Thus Professor Jevons esti-
mates that the value of gold fell between
1889 and 1909 46 per cent, and from
1909 to 1849 it rose 145 per cent.
When Gold Was Cheap.
1t is point we'll worth noting, how
ever, that in the seven Or eight years
1s49-56-that gold, according to the
best authorities, lost Is per cent of it's
value, the world accommodated itself
very easily to the change. The only
cutlery was from the holders Of fixed in
debtedness, and they wanted to demone-
tie gold because it was too cheap. We
heard very little about that in this
country and the masses of our people
did not even know it, because we had
then no permanent creditor class, no
great bondholders; but the literature of
Europe at the time was full Of com.
