Many mothers are sickly, fretful, helpless
creatures tortured beyond endurance by
the pains of their own wrecked constitu-

hand he offered me u hearty shake and DO,
litcly asked:
"Will you please tell me, sir, if I'm on
the right road to reach Silver Creek?''
"Got any CON juice with yo', stranger?''
he replied, avoiding my direct question.
handed him a small flask of whisky,
which he drained to the last drop and
handed it back with the remark:
Never tasted better, stranger-ncver.
Did yo say anything as come up?"
Eyes, l asked you to direct me TO Silver

He poured out int his hand about half

said rather apologetically as he slowed it
away in his pocket:
"Durn these wimlninl don't git no

For the third time asked for directions
to Silver Creek, but as before he passed it
by and said:

No, sir, l cannot!" I interrupted los
ing all patience with the fellow, "but if
you will be kind enough to direct me to

A Queer Priesthood,

The most extraordinary costume worn
in religious ceremony is that Of the
priests of hill tribe near Darieeling,
in India.
A photograph of group of these Pc
culiar priests has just been brought back
f1om India. All of them wear masks of
enormous size, painted in the most hid
eous manner, possibly by the priestly
artists. The colors are chiefly bright red
and yellow. The faces have strangely
shaped noses, eyes and ears, and many
other things are done to make them as
striking as possible.
When all these priests are engaged in
one Of the elaborate ceremonies Of their
religion, the scene surpasses anything
on the comic opera stage. The fierce hill
men of Darjeeling are very much i'm
pressed by the the sight of the repre-
sentatives Of their gods decked out in
this fashion.
One mask indicates that its wearer
represents the god who looks after the
spears of the tribesmen and helps to
drive them home. Another deity cares
for the bows and arrows, etc. The war
rior who hopes to do good work with
any Of these weapons must literally
propitiate the priests.
The hill men have particularly great
ceremony once year, when, led by
their priests, they 60 out on to the plain
and indulge in warlike exercises, bid
ding defiance to all creation. The city
OF Darjeeling, being in the hills, is used
to considerable extent as health sta
ton by British residents in India The
surrounding country, also called OAR
jeeling, is inhabited by fierce race,
who are only kept in order by judicious
treatment Many Of them have enlisted
in the Anglo-Indian army. -San Fran
cisco Examiner.

By the pangs of rheumatism, the Joints
eventually become previously distorted,
and sometimes assume an almost gro
tesque deformity. To prevent such re-
suits by simple and agreeable means is
certainly the part of wisdom. A tendency
to rheumatic ailments may be successful
ly compatted with Hostetter's Stomach
Btters, medicine with the prestige of
long and successful career, of unbounded
popularity, and of emphatic professional
endorsement. 1t removes from the blood
those infammatory Impurities which pa
biologists assign as the cause of rheuma-
tism, and not only purifies the life cur
rent, but enriches it, promoting vigor by
fertilizing its source. Digestion, the ac-
tion of the bowels and the secretion of
the bile, are aiced by it, and it impels the
kidneys and bladder to a regular and
active performance of their functions.
1t is besides a thoroughly reliable remedy
for, and means of preventing, periodic
feyers

ROCK ISLAND DEAL.
Said to be Negotiating for the q. P
D. & 6. Route.

Chicago, Oct. 6-RumOrs We're cur
rent that the C.. R 1. & P. is negOtiaU-
ing to secure control of the Union Pa
cific Denver and Gulf road. This road
would prove of special value to the
Rock Island road on account of its ex-
ceIIent terminals at Denver, and which
the Rock Island needs badly at that
point
Besides, it would give the Rock Island
an independent outlet to Denver. At
present it has to use the tracks of the
Union Pacific from Liman to Denver, a
distance of 81 miles Having lately
made a traffic agreement with the Mil
waukee and St. Paul, whereby the lat
ter finds an outlet to Denver from
Omaha over the Rock Island, the pres
ent terminal facilities of this road at
Denver are scarcely sufficient to ac-
commodate the traffic of both the Chi
cagO roads
The Rock Island is said to have the
backing of J. Pierpont Morgan, and as
Mr.. MOrgan's firm practically controls
the Milwaukee and St Paul railway,
the report looks quite plausible.
Only the lines of the Gulf road in Col
oradO and between Denver and Trini-
dad are wanted by the Rock Island. 1t
has no use for that part of the road
south of Trinidad. This portion of the
gulf line would be of great value to
the Denver & Rio Grande road, as it
would afford it a direct outlet to Texas.
and the Rio Grande, it is said, would
take it if the proposed Rock Island
deal goes through.
