We all know that any tired muscle can
be restored by rest. Your stomach is a

ing II am tired. Give me rest" To rest
the stomach you must do its work outside
of the body.
This is the Shaker method OF curing in
digestion, and its sucsess is best attested
by the fact that these people are PRACTICAL
ly free from what is without doubt the
most prevalent of all diseases. The Shak-

without taxing the tired digestive organs,
but iG is likewise an aid to the digestion OF
other foods in the stomach. A 10 cent
trial bottle will convince you of it's merit,
and these you can obtain through all drug
gists.

A Wheelman's Device.

Ingenious wheelmen of Nice have put
an end to the tribute of lives which
hill near that city has been ex-
acting from them. At the bottom of
this decliyity, it seems, there is a sharp
turn, then bridge with low parapet,
and just beyond terrible amount of
nothing at all except scenery. Long ago
the French Touring club put sign ad-
vising caution in conspicuous place at
the top of the descent, but this did not
prove sufficient to overcome the fatal
attraction of the abyss, and wheelmen
continued to precipitate themselves into
the view-which, by the way, was pri-
yate property-with rapidity that
threatened in time seriously to diminish
the clubs annual receipts from dues.
After long study of the problems,
financial, aesthetic and others, which
the case involved, it was decided to sus-
pend just beyond the parapet a strong
net neatly woven of steel wires. The
very day after it was put in place BIZ
cyclist came coasting wildly down the
hill, struck the stone wall. left his wheel
1T wasn't worth taking any farther
and took a graceful header into the net.
For the first time it wasn't necessary
for the newspapers of Nice, in giving
their regular news from the bridge of
Raminguo, to say anything about "a
plunge into eternity" Since then the
net has saved an average of four lives q
week, and so well known have its pow
ers become that picnic parties from the
city, which once avoided the bridge as
place of tragical associations, now re-
sort there daily to watch, from the cool
shade of nearby trees, the amusing
postures assumed by the wheelmen and
wheelwomen when they strike the elias
tic wires. According to recent informa-
tion from that region the spectacle is
well worth seeing. New York Times.

Virtues of English Tobacco.

A retail shop OH Forty second street,
New York, does quite business in i'm
ported English tobaccos Its window s
are gay with the advertising cards of
certain manufacturers in England.
Now, no one will pretend that Eng
lish smoking tobaccos are as good as
American. The raw leaf from which they
are manufactured has first to be brought
into England from this country, and
the United States is not sending its best
hogshead tobacco abroad. On account
of the tariff the imported English to-
baccos are much dearer than those
which are manufactured in this coun-
try, and since, as have said, the home
product is so much better than the for
eign it is not easy to explain why there
should be any demand for the English
goods in this city at all. ! asked the
dealer if he sold much of the English
tobacco, and he answered that the de-
mand was quite large and quite steady.
IF you ask me how it comes that !
am able to sell these goods, shouldn' t
be able to tell you, excepting on the
theory that those who buy it are Anglo
maniacs. who love English things be-
cause they are English. They fancy
that every time they buy package of
this English pipe tobacco they advertise
the fact that they have been in England
and have acquired the taste there. But
since they advertise it only to me, who
don't care rap whether they have
been in England or not, 1 can't for the
life of me see why they do it. "-Tobac-

There is meaning in the old names
that cling to certain localities of our
land. The Indians did not bestew these
names arbitrarily, and when they gave
to certain sand hill in Michigan IT,
tie that means laundering Sand hill
men today call it Thunder mountain.
Chief Simon Pokagon, in letter to
Popular Science News, says that this
particular hill is one of a number of
sand dunes that stretch for 800 miles
along the east shore of Lake Michigan.
They are formed by drift sand from the
lake and vary from 30 to 300 feet in
height, being generally covered with
scrub timber, evergreen and hard wood.
This particular hill has character
of its own. 1t is literally thunderer.
Now and again it lifts up its voice and
speaks with low, muttering thunder.
Its eloquence is irregular. It will be-
gin and thunder for six or ten seconds,
then pause and in two or three seconds
begin again, as if talking. Sailors,
while passing along the coast, frequent
ly report having heard the voice of
thunder above the roar of the waves
dashing on the shore.
One who visited the hill says that
when he reached the top it began to
mutter and shake, like creature of life
that was suffering from an ague chill.
The air rushed ont of the sand as if the
mound were breathing with great labor.
And yet the mound seems in compost,
tion to be no different from its neigh
bors.
81 have been the whole length of
Lake Michigan, says the writer, "and
failed to mark any difference in the
general appearance and quality of the
sand of which these hills are composed.
Our Algonquin fathers naturally
thought this one was the wigwam of
the Manito or spirit that presided over
Mi-she- gum-Lake Michigan-a name
which means monstrous lake.

FlREMEN'S WATCHFULNESS.
Habits of Vigilance That Prevent Com
rade,s Danger From Being Overlooked.

Habits of Vigilance That Prevent u Com
rade's Danger From Being Overlooked.
After twosoore fremen had been tax
ELI unconscious from the cellar OF IA
burning building in Chambers street
curious citizen who wandered inside
the fire lines asked:
"How do they happen to know in all
this confusion and noise that men sup
posed to be fighting fire in the cellar
have been overcome by smoke and are
living down there unconscious, and
how, too, with nearly 40 men rescued,
do they know that there are not more
men in the cellar in similar predioa-
ment?''
Under the circumstances the question
was perfectly natural. 1t was dark
night and the fact that the electric
lights for block east and west sputter-
ed constantly instead of giving steady
light did not improve matters. All was
confusion around the burning building.
Firemen were running every which way.
Policemen were beating back the crowd
which was struggling to get near enough
to the engine house to see the prostrate
firemen within. Ambulances and fire
engines blocked the street, and firemen
were clambering over the roofs of ad-
joining buildings, yelling hoarsely at
one another and seeking places to fight
the fire.
Naturally in all this confusion it was
a matter of wonder to one not familiar
with the ways of firemen how in the
world they could tell whether or not
any of their comrades was in danger.
The cellar of the building was full of
thick, black smoke, which no man
could live in even for short time, and
besides that the temperature was down
to zero, for the fire was in cold stor-
age warehouse and the freezing rooms
were in the cellar
There is a system in the fire depart
ment by which the men can keep track
of one another. The rule is for the men
of each company to look out for the
members of that company This makes
it comparatively easy for the men to
keep track of one another, for there are
rarely more than dozen men in a
company, and each man in it knows
about where his comrades are working
at fire.
The custom among the men is to keep
constantly inquiring for one another If
Jones hasn't happened to see Smith for
some time, he Immediately asks the
first man of his company that he comes
across where Smith is If that man can t
tell, the inquiries go On, and SO man
can't be missing for very long without
his comrades knowing it. Then it is an
easy matter to trace Smith to the last
task he was ordered to do, and as rule
he is hauled safely out of danger. From
constant usage the system has become
almost perfect, and the cool courage
that it has developed has made the de-
partment one of the finest in the world
The men will risk everything and go
against the most tremendous odds to
save comrade New York Sun.

And the books that tell the dates,
The erayons and the blackboard5

And if they want a little rest,

They shut their leaves with pleasure.
