For your Protection Catarrh "Cures" or
Tonics for Catarh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide Of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
a blood disease caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow OF
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of cataTTh will follow; severe pain IN
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad

Benefits Derived From the Playing OF
Ducts-Yalue of Writing Lessons.
A teacher. writing to The Etude,
says:
always use easy duets with pupils
every lesson for few minutes Of sight
reading. l think there is nothing 30
helpful A teacher once remarked sar-
castically, "It's easy to keep up your
practice if you play duets with your pu-
pills. Well, it is benefit But are there
not many advantages to the scholarp
What better proof than En- ery's piano
method, and, later, tho fine new meth
cd of Landon. In many Of these duet
playing is introduced almost from the
beginning. Duets with pupils might be
compared to the harnessing of young,
fractions horse with an old, steady ono.
There will be some founcing around
for awhile, but the younger soon learns
how easy IL is to work when both step
and keep time together.
Suffering, or making notes over, is
also prevented. While playing the pri.
mo- the letters above the staff become
more familiar, causing the pupil also to
read two trcbles. Playing the secondo
helps the mind to retain the low bass
notes, while two basses are read to-
gether
Surely it gives now lifo to the young
pupil, imagining, as they seem to do,
that the whole pleasing performance
proceeds from their own little fingers
alone. Then there are other benefits. If
the teacher holds correct hand, the
pupil copies it. If he raises the hands at
tho rests, the pupil is prompted to do
the same. II the habit is throwing out
the elbows, few thumps against tho
teacher will cure this.
Before pieces are half worked up pu-
pills wish to get the finishing touches
on, whilo if they were painting q pic.
turo the teacher would simply say,
"You can't expect me to touch up the
foliage or show you how when you have
no branches to the trees, or expect the
last touches on the clouds with no back
ground filled in for the sky"
Are writing lessons necessary? Ger
tainly. Writing page after page of let

lessons in note value, rests, staccato
touches, all kinds Of time, signatures,
scales, etc.
A patron found fault because had
already given her child "fivo lessons
and not scale yet" 1t is so natural
for some little folk to hold pretty curved
fingers that scales can be given at once
but l fail to see the benefit of much
scale work with fingers that turn up
like sled runners. Surely the first joint
of each finger should be trained to bend
outward while the thumb is held down
before the latter can pass freely undel

VERDICT BY ARCHITECTS

Among the brands of Portland cement
in the worlds market the leading place
has been gained by the product of the
largest factory in the woIld-that of the
Alsen Cement Works, Ham burg, Ger
many, whose output exceeds that of any
other firm, and whose expectations to the
United States lead. This cement has cen
Endorsed by the leading architects and en-
gineers of Europe and America. Its SUI
periority is due to the skill and care of its
manufacture, its uniform setting quality,
its great strength and it's ability to carry a
maximum perc entage of sand and stone.
The tests of Alsens cement have not been
surpassed by any other brand, and it is
more economical for use than cheaper
brands.
Alsen's cement has also won great popu-
larity on the Pacific Coast, where it's con-
sumption is rapidly increasing, as build
ers have become acquainted with its
superiority and comparative cheapness. 1t
has been used in many of the largest con-
tracts in San Francisco, and it is very
largely used in sidewalk construction, for
which it is the ideal cement, giving the
best color and the most durable wearing
surface. VILLAIN Wolff & Co., at 1877 and
800 Market street, are sole agents for Cali
fornla, and Edmund Baker, general agent
for the Pacific Coast, with headquarters at
William Wolff & Co.'s, will gladly supply
any information desired.

DOGS ON THE BENCH.
The California State Poultry and
Kennel Club Will Give an Ex-
hibition Next Month.

The California State Poultry and Ken
mel CLUB is making extensive preparations
for its exhibition of dogs, which will be
held in Sacramento commencing January
8 and ending January L. The secretary,
William E. Laid of Stockton, states that
sportsmen and owners of high-class dogs
from many parts of the State have prom
ised their support. Among the many
high-bred CANNES that will appear on the
benches will be twenty fox terriers which
were recently imported from England by
the representatives OF an English colony
In Placer County. IL is said that the lit
tie bankers are perfect beauties and will
cut quite dash in Sacramento.
American Kennel Club rules will gov
ern. The judge, J.. Otis Fellows of Hor-
nellsville N. Y, will leave his home for
this coast about the first of next month.
He will pass judgment on all classes OF
dogs.
Sportsmen are reminded that entries
will positively close with the secretary on
January 1. and that So must accompany
each entry.
1t is said that Stockton has prom ised al
least tWenty-seven entries, which in all

the hand nearest the coach and swung
around so that his body was between the
cars that were rapidly gaining Roadway.
His other hand was loosening It's grasp
at the instant the conductor managed to
get grip on his collar, and the trainman
held on for dear life. He tried to pull the
man over the iron railing of the car on
which he was standing, but the weight
was too much and he had all he could do to
prevent his burden from falling to certain
death under the car wheels. The train
was by this time going at full speed, and
Brundage, not knowing how long he could
support the unconscious man, was debat-
ing whether to let go with one hand and
reach for the bellcord and stop the train,
or to hold on until the next station was
reached, which would be within very
short time.
To his intense relief the old man sud-
denly showed signs of returning conscious
ness, and tried feeb ly to catch hold of one
of the iron rods by his side. He gained
grasp on it within few seconds, and,
assisted by the conductors strong arms,
reached the steps in safety and sank down
exhausted. By the time he reached his
destination at Park street, he was suffi-
GENTLY recovered to thank his rescuer ana
walked away.
Brundage modestly refused to discuss
the matter when asked about it, but adj
mitted that such an occurrence had taken
place.
did just what any other raan would
have done under the circums instances he
said as he went across the depot at the
mole to take his Oakland run.
From other trainmen it was learned
that the man who was saved from ter
rible death lives near Webster-street sta
ton, and that he is subject TO the fainting
snalIo ono of ~ irh would baua coat hi m
his life but for the quick wits of the con-
duCtQr.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-12-25

probability will be increased TO forty at
the time of closing of entries.
The lovers OF st. Bernards, fox-terriers,
cookers, settlers and pointers of San Fran
cisco, Oakland and San Jose have all
promised their liberal support to the show.
Although the speedy greyhound is now
an animal that is much fancied by the
lovers of coursing in this City, for some un'
explained reason the owners OF the whip
tails show a marked dislike to dog shows.
The lovers of the leash in Sacramento
take very different view of kennel shows
from their brothers of this City, who take
stock only in racing. 1t has been an
nounced by the president of the Sacra-
mento Courslng Club that there will be at
least twenty greyhounds entered from the
capital city.
The San Jose, Los Angeles and Stockton
bench shows will be held in April, and in
all probability Mr.. Croweli of the Breeder
and Sportsman will be selected to Judge
those shows.

SHE RACED DOWN
THE FIRE ESCAPE
Pursued in Air by Her
Owner Wan Kim Wins
Her Freedom.
Very Sensational Happening in
Chinatown Yesterday
Afternoon.
Hatchet Men Came Upon the Scene
to Take Part in the Proceedings,

Wan Kim is popularity supposed to be
the handsomest girl in all Chinatown.
She is young. barely II years of age,
plump. rather tall, and with a complex
ion which receives decorative pigments
like satin.
Wan Kim yesterday caused decided
sensation in Spofford alley, near Clay
street, by making hurried escape from a
den in which she was held as prisoner.
She sped down several lengths of ladders,
which reached from the upper story of he
building, then scram bled upon balcony,
and then, with an air which would make
the success of a heroine of melodrama,
leaped boldly downward. amid yells and
screams of excited Chinese. and made her
escape.
But this was not dramatic show on
the part of the. handsome and fearless

prised when he saw her rapid flight, and
not little astonished when, after she had
struck heavily on the hard street at the
conclusion of long jump, she rose I'M
harmed to go away with white people
who had come to her rescue.
All the time the alley was filled with
expostulating and gesturing Chinese, who
b ad ever seen anything as sensational in
Chinatown. Mingled with the cries were
grunts of admiration. The excitement
reach ed It's height when the fleeing girl
placed one hand in the outstretched hand
of Mrs. Ida Hull, the matron of the

The officers escorting Mrs. Hull, ar
rived in the alley about 2:45 P. M. They
saw Wan Kim on a balcony on the third
floor of the building. Her eyes roamed
uneasily about until she saw Mrs. Hull.
Then she gave a quick glance of recogni-
ton, and second later she had run up a
flight of stairs TO the next story above, and
was on the iron fire escape, Fastening for

He shouted with anger as the screams of
the Chinese women in the house notified
him that Wan Kim was on her way to free
dom. Tie Yung did not go all the way to
the ground after her, but stopped, baff1ed by
the officers, on the second floor and disap-
peared into the building.
Almost instantly the whole alley was
crowded with Chinese. All the houses

an animated appearance, all the balconies
and windows being filled with spectators
