Cures
"Cures talk - in favor
OF Hoods Sarsaparilla,
as for no other medi- Il 80 -

cine. It's great cures recorded in truthful,
convincing language of grateful men and
women, constitute its most effective adj
vertising. Many of these cures are mar
velous. They have won the confidence Of
the people; have given Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla the largest sales in the world, and
have made necessary for its manufacture
the greatest laboratory on earth. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is known by the cures it has
made-cures of scrofula, salt rheum and
eczema, cures OF rheumatism, neuralgia
and weak nerves, cures Of dyspepsia, liver
and kidney troubles, catarrh and malaria.
Such Cures as This Prove Merit.
"My little nephew was plump and
healthy baby until yer and half old,
then sores broke out behind his ears and
spread rapidly over his head, hands and
body. A physician said the t-ou bic was
scrofula humor in the blood. The child
sbecame one complete sore. We had to
restrain his hands to keep him from
scratching the sores. We were induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla, and in short
time he had more life. He improved rap
| idly, his skin became entirely clear OF
sores and he is now healthy child" MRS.

Health and strength carry us
through dangers and make us
safe in the presence of peril. A
perfectly strong man with rich,
pure blood, has nothing to fear
from germs. He may breathe in
the bacilli of consumption with
impunity. If there is weak
spot where the germs may find
an entrance to the tissues, then
the trouble begins. Disease
germs propagate with lightning
like rapidity. Once in the blood,
the only way to get rid of them
is to kill them. That is what DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is for. 1t purifies the blood.
That means that it kills the germs
but that is only part of what it
does. 1t assists digestion by
stimulating the secretion of di-
gestlve fluids, so promoting as
similation and nutrition; purifies
and enriches the blood and so
supplies the tissues with the food
they need. It builds up strong,
healthy flesh and puts the whole
body into disease-resistinc
state.

Modern Tailless Kites.

Kite flying is no longer mere amuse-
ment; it is rapidly assuming dignity
and Importance. Mr.. Gilbert Woglom
has carried his experiments in this
direction far enough to make his fights
of importance to the scientific world.
He has perfected form Of kite, mainly
derived from the Japanese, to which
he has given the name of parakite-.
beyond the kite-so called on account
OF the great altitudes attainable by
these birdlike fiers. One of his special
inventions is a folding parakite that
can be easily carried on shipboard. to
be used for sending line ashore in
the event Of running aground in a
storm. Mr.. Woglom has a fleet OF
over hundred kites, all carefully
registered as to name, rating, and
special characteristics. His largest
one, named Baby, has pull OF eighty
pounds in a strong wind.

A INSTRUMENTATION soene.

A violinist was playing various airs
before the cages of the animals in
geological garden. He had been play
ing lullaby, but suddenly changed it
for jig. Then there was a transfer
nation scene in the home of the
lioness as rapid and as complete as
that OF the tune. The cubs went into
ecstasies. They rolled about, jumped,
fell over one another, raced over their
mothers recumbent body, and danced
unrebuked on her head. Their frolic
ceased only with the ceasing of the
music. Then they gathered at the
front bars of the cage and silently
pleaded for more. Their plea was
successful, and in response to the deli
cate fattery conveyed by their manner
the player gave the lullaby once more
They simply sat and listened to it as
silently as they had at first. The
transition to the jig music was once
more made speedily. The first note of
the lively air had barely left the violin
before its riotous contagion had once
more caught the cubs. They rollicked
and rolled about and stopped only
when the professor, fearing to tire
their little limbs, took his bow from
his fiddle and told them they had
danced enough for the occasion.

A Curious Bird, the weka.

AS to food, he is omnivorous, eating
anything from pea rifle cartridge to
the remains of one of his own off
spring. I remember an instance of
this when our dog unfortunately kill
ed small bird, which was too small to
eat. The parents made decent show
of grief over their less, and then-be-
ing quite sure that the little one was
dead-proceeded to eat up its still
warm remains. In camp wekas are
useful as scavengers; but they are in
corrigible thieves, trying to take away
everything at all white or glistening;
and, as they are able to move weight
of two or three pounds, it may be well
imagined that careful lookout has to
be kept. The glance of mingled tri-
umph and contempt which a weka
gives over his shoulder as he walks off
with your pipe is inimitable, and his
whols, attitude would make a most
laughable picture if well drawn.

A Musician Speaks.

No one understands the little per-
plexities attendant on every occupation
except those who are engaged in it,
and so / suppose few of the people
who listen to an orchestra have any
appreciation of the difficulty encoul
tered in getting SO many instruments
to start precisely at the same instan's
And do you know which player has the
most critical position Of all in that
respect? Why. the man at the kettle
drum. L always regard him with the
greatest admiration, and my wonder 10
Just as great each time that / see it at
the nicely with which he calculates his
movements. You see, all the other
plsyers can be in a condition Of abso-
Lutte readiness while waiting for the
signal fr ON the conductor. The violin
bows are in place, ready 60 be drawn
at the raising Of the baton. The
mouthpiece of every wind instrument
is at the lips OF every player. Only
the man at the drum is at a disadvan-
tage. 1t will not do for him to have
his hand raised with the stick poised
in the air, at the height from which he
is to strike. If he did this the sound
of the beat would be heard at such an
appreciable interval after the notes of
the other instruments that it would
entirely fail to accord with them, and
the effect would be absurd. So the
only thing for the drummer to do is to
anticipate the motion of the baton,
beginning to strike just shade before
the signal. He actually plays out of
time, you see, in order to be in time.
That is why always sympathize with
his position, and look upon him as
genius in the matter of fine calculs-
ton.

The sewing machine, one of the
greatest blessings in the way Of ma
chimes ever offered the public, sold for
years at sixty dollars in the United
States. The same machine, however,
to be shipped to foreign land, could
be purchased below twenty dollars.
After the patents ran out the price
fell rapidly until now sewing machines
are sold for twenty-five dollars and Of
ten below twenty dollars. The sew
ing machine manufacturers became
immensely rich from their profits of
several hundred per cent. II has
been estimated that typewriting ma
chimes cost less than twenty dollars TO
build, while they sell for from fifty
dollars to one hundred dollars each.
1t is generally understood that an
agreement exists whereby these high
prices are maintained. Business men
are compelled to pay from 800 to 500
per cent. profit or go without the ma
chimes.
Are there any other machines which
yield such profits as the sewing ma
chine did for years and the type
writing machine has and does, except
it be the bicycle?

larry, are from the Italian words questa

borda, "that side" Abbreviated, these
two phrases appear as sta borda and la

were soon rendered 'starboard" and

Edison said recently that "sleep is a

REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE.

Ever since McKinley's accession to Office
there has been more or less speculation as
to what policy his administration will
pursue in regard to Cuba. 1t would seem
that these questions could be most easily
settled by turning to the platform on
which he was elected and to his inaugural
address. These documents contain author
itative statements and are sufficiently
clear to be understood by ali classes of
people.
The platform adopted by the Repub-
lican National Convention at st. Louis
last June declares:
From the hour of achieving their own inde-
pendence the people of the United States have
regarded with sympathy the struggles OF other
American peoples to free themselves from
European domination. We watch with deep
and abiding interest the heroic battle of the
Cuban patriots against cruelty and oppression,
and our best hopes go out for the full success
of their determined contest for liberty. The
Government of Spain having lost control of
Cuba and being unable to protect the property
or lives of resident American citizens, or to
comply with its treaty obligations, we believe
that the Government of the United States
should actively use its influence and good
Offices to restore peace and give independence
to the island,
On that platform Mckinley was nomi-
mated and elected. In his inaugural ad-
dress he declared: sit will be our aim to
pursue a firm and dignifed foreign
policy which shall be just, impartial,
ever watchful of our National honor,
and always insisting upon the en-
forcement of the rights of Ameri-
can citizens everywhere" The statement
of the inaugural address is couched in the
language of diplomacy, but the meaning
is the same as that in the platform, that
Spain, being unable to maintain law in
Cuba or fulfill its treaty obligations, it is
time the United States should interfere
for the protection of American citizens
residing there and to promote the inde-
pendence of the island.
In February. 1896, the Cubans issu ed an
address setting forth the causes which
impelled them to take up arms, and ask
ing recognition as independent people.
In the course of this address they said ::
ITO whom should we appeal if not to
America? To what land il not to that of
Washington, OF Jefferson, of Monroe, of
Jackson. of Grant, of Blaine, Of Cleveland
and of the imm ortal Lincoln?" The land
of Cleveland, while Cleveland was at the
head of it, did not respond either to aid
the Cubans or to protect American citi-
zens. We may expect different things
from Mckinley
