dians. the Curtis company, and many

An enthusias tic writer in the Sketch
gives the following graphic description
of La Loie Fuller's dances:
The orgie of color was so wonderful
as to leave objection mute. Light
came from every side. La Loie
danced upon glass, from which the
vivid spleudor of the headlights was re-
f1ected, while from wings, stage and
seemed to flow towards her. With the
rhythm of the music the colors changed,
and where the white ruled before there
was a kaleidoscope vision. Violet,
orange, purple and mauve movements
succeeded in rapid succession until a
rich, deep red dominated the dancer,
and she became for one brief moment a
living rose, with palpitating heart and
flying leaves. Then the hues of the
rainbow came from all sides and ranged
themselves upon the ever-moving
draperies. Every fold had it's tint and
scheme of color intensified by the sur
rounding darkness until the eye could
scarcely bear to look. Just as the
strain was becoming almost intolerabl e
the colors disappeared, there was a
white flash of appalling brilliancy, and
La Loie faded under diaphanous drap-
cry"

house on her return trip from the east

Ignorance of the cycle racing rules
caused a geat deal of unnecessary
trouble last year. Every rider, race
meet promoter, and club official should
get a copy of the racing rules and
make a through study of the condi-
tions. Even the casual visitor to the
base ball games understands every
rule in the game. There is no sane
reason for so much ignorance about
the rules, governing cycle racing.
This country exported $4,000, 900
worth of bicycles last year and will
probably do still better this year. The
old world has cranks enough of her own
but she must come to America for her
wheels.

Why Grant Never SWOre.

General Horace Porter, in his Cam
paigning With Grant" in the Cen
tury," says: While sitting with him at
the campfire late one night, after every
one else had gone to bed. 1 said to
him: General it seems singular that
you have gone through all the rough
and tumble of army service and from
tier life, and have never been provoked
into swearing. l have never heard you
utter an oath or use an imprecauon.
We'll, somehow or other, l never learn
ed to swear" he replied. when a
boy / seemed to have an aversion to it,
and when / became a man | saw the
folly of it. | have always noticed, too,
that swearing helps to rouse man s
anger, and when a man flies into a
passion his adversary who keeps cool
always gets the better of him. In fact,
could never see the use Of swearing.
l think it is the case with many people
who swear excessively that it is mere
habit, and that they do not mean to be
profane, but, to say the least, it is
great waste of time" His example in
this respect was once quoted in my
hearing by q member of the Christian
Commission to a teamSter in the Army
of the Potomac, in the hope of lesesning
the volume of rare oaths with which
he was italicizing his language, and
upon which he seemed to be placing his
main reliance in moving his mule team
out of a mud hole. The only reply
evoked from him was, Then thar's one
thing sartin; the old man never druv

THE TAVERN OF CASTLE CRAC

The Tavern of Castle Crag was built
the foot of Mount Shasta, and amid
the most picturesque mountain scenery
accessible to the tourist. The eligibil-
ity of the place selected was due to a
rare combination of flowing water. in
spring mountain scenery and inviting
forests.
The Tavern of Castle Crag, with its
splendid environment, it was believed
would appeal chiefly to those who seek
a sumemr resort for health. recreation
outdoor sports, sympathy with nature
and informal socia bility. To empha-
size this intention and signify the kind
of invitation extended. the name TAV-
ERN of Castle Crag was chosen.
To avoid all implication of sumptuous
accommodations or the tyranny of So
cial Journalism, and to realize this orig
inal conception, the management has
decided to make the Tavern of Castle
Crag distinctively family resort: and
especially attractive to those to whom
health, recreation and sympathy with
nature are paramount considerations.
To this end rooms on the first and sec
ond floors of this splendid taxern with
board will be furnished at a monthly
rate of 500 a person; and rooms on the
third floor with board at a monthly
rate of $50 person.
The accommodations of the Tavern
are first class in every particular. It's
parlOrs and halls are elegant and spac-
ious. It's verandas are cool and invit-
ing, placing the guest always in the
presence of the most attractive noun
tain scenery to be enjoyed from the
balcony of any tavern in the world.
The opportunity for outdoor sports
embraces hunting, fishing, riding. BIZ
cycling, walking on mountain paths
and driving on picturesque roads The
Tavern is located Immediately on the
main trunk line of the California &,
Oregon Railroad, and is fourteen hours
ride from San Francisco, twelve hours
from Stockton, ten hours from Sacra-
mento, thirty hours from Los Angeles
and twenty three hours from Portland.
The Tavern of Castle Crag is reached
from San Francisco and Sacramento
without loss of time. The train leaves
San Francisco at s o'clock p m arriv-
ing early the following morning for
breakfast, which is always ready upon
the arrival of the train. Returning, the
train time affords equal accommoda-
ton Thus both in going and in COM
ing the comforts of the passenger and
the economy of his time have been
studied In brief, the Tavern of Castle
Crag realizes to its guests the perfect
ideal of that spring time in the high al
titudes of the Sierras which never be-
comes high summer and is the COM
Portable home of pleasing recreation
and restful repose.

''There is a story told of Alexander

Dwight l.. Moody in the Ladies Home
Journal" writing on Faith" to his BIZ
bic Class. Some one who was Jealous
of the doctors distinction sought to
bring about his ruin by arousing suspi-
cion against him. and sent an anony-
nous letter to the King accusing the
doctor of treason. In the letter the
writer warned the King that on the
following morning the doctor would
mix some deadly poison with medicine
which he would bring him. Alexander
knew his friend too well to believe the
accusation. When the doctor came the
next morning the King, taking the COB
let containing the medicine in his hand,
gave the doctor the warning letter, and

it he drank the prescribed medicine. By
that act of fearless faith he showed
his implicit confidence in his friend, and
displayed a love that was beyond sus-
picion, that could think no evil, faith
that could not and would be shaken,
no matter what the tests to which it
might be subjected. And such is the
faith that God would inspire in our
hearts-a faith that would not tolerate
suspicious doubts and fears; a, faith
that would trust Him implicitly how

Stimulate the Sluggish Kidneys.

In addition to its tonic and cathartic
properties, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters ex-
ercises a beneficial influence upon the kid
neys and bladder, when they are inactive,
by stimulating them to renewed exertion,
thus reopening, as it We're a siuice for the
escape of impurities whose regular chan
mel of exit is the organs of urination.
Among these are certain abnormal and
reparable injury to the system If not en-
tirely expelled. The kidneys and bladder
themselves are also benefited by this
stimulus, as their inactivity is usually a
preliminary to their disease and disorgan-
ization. They also experience, in common
with other portions of the system, the
potent invigoratVe effects of the Bitters,
which furthermore corrects disordered
conditions of the stomach bowels and

The salesman pointed to the

As cents. Then the woman said,
indignantly:

arc not made, and that to get one

Again the salesman surprised
her. He showed an enameled
steel tub-the very thing she
wanted, and only IS cents. There
upon the woman LEFT the house,
and soon returned with the Is
cents that she had paid for a 45c

Now, she is in happy possession
