A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered with
Scrotulous Humors- How q Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
II appeared i'm the form OF red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition.. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
Il to our boy and We noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles OF Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out OF his
blood and it has never since returned"

One CT the Varied Uses OF the In
cnndcscent Electric Light.
MANY Of ny best and most valuable
and most merchantab bic thoughts" said
. man who writes things for q living,
come to me after l have gone to bed at
night. 1t is true that cares oppress me
sometimes then and keep ne awake,
but rot often; that is usually my time
for building castles in the air, and for
having people leave me fortunes, and
for conjuring up all manner of good
luck; and in this joyous mental atnos-
phere often have happy ideas that can
be worked up and turned to account.
Formerly, before | went to bed, I
used to put my idea pad, with pencil
by it, on a shelf in an adjoining room
near q gas jet, left burning low, as L
didn't want light in my sleeping room.
When an idea struck me l would get out
of bed, go into the next room, turn up
the light, make q note Of it, and go back
to bed. But 1 didn't always do this 1
wasn't what you would call lazy, but if
it was very cold night or 1 was very
tired | would say to myself that I
50 would take the chances, and then
every time would forget it. I don't
know how much money I lost by this,
but good deal.
'But now have little table at
/ the head of the bed With the pad and
pencil on that, and hanging down over
it an inc2ndescent electric light. I
dent have to get out of bed at all. I
| have only to turn the key Of the shaded
light, pick up the pad and jot down the
idea. Then put the pad down on the
table again and turn off the light.
( "Now 1 lose nothing. 1 suppose
must have saved enough the first week
to pay for putting in the light, and
everything that I have in this way is
just so much clear profit.".N. Y. Sun.

If man does you an i'll turn he will
never forgive you for 1t.
If man releases piece of property
he takes q fresh grip on it.
If people didn't have hobbies the
world would soon cease to revolve.
If man once uses porous plasters he
is apt to become much attached to

If hope assumes the guise Of an cas-

If it is necessary to write to anyone
you don't care two cents for, use postal

If we listen to the troubles of other
people it sometimes makes us better
satisfied with our own.
If two sous find they HIS but a

If a man marries woman because

q FIGHTING DIET.

Il fighting diet, writes G.. 3. Shaw in the
London Vegetarian. Ninety-nine per
cent. of the worlds fighting has been
done on farinaceous food. In Trafalgar
square l found it impossible to run
away as fast as the meat caters did.
Panic is carnivorous speciality. If the
army were fed Oh a hardy, healthy,
hcshless diet we should hear no more OF
the disgust of our colored troops and OF
the Afridis and FuzEywuzzies at the
Cowardice of Tommy Atkins. | am my
self congenitally timid, but as a vege-
tartan l can generally conceal my
tremors; whereas in my unregenerate
days, when ate my fellow-creaturcs,
was cs patient coward as Peter the
Great. The recent spread cf tire-eating
fiction and Jingo war worship--a sort
of thing that only interests the pusil-
lanirnous-is due TO the spread Of meat
eating. Compare the Tipperary peasant
to the potatoes-and-butte days
with the modern gentleman who gorges
himself with murdered COW. The Tip
perary man never read bloodyminded
novels or cheercd patriotic music hall
tableaus, but he fought recklessly and
wantonly. Your carnivorous gentle
man is afraid of erything-including
doctors, dogs, disease, death and truth

SCEENCE AND INDUSTRY.

We cannot see the sun itself; we see
only the cloud CT vapor that covers it,
like the mantle cf Welsbach burner.
Prof. Elmer Gates, Of Washington.
has recently improved the performance
of the microscope, and it is now posi-
bic for the human eye TO see an object
magnilied 3,000,OC0 tines, Heretofore
10000 has been the lir.it.
The sun consists of three parts, the
central portion, or nucleus, which is
gaseous, but rendered viscous under the
enormous pressure and high temper
ature, the photosphcre of incandcscent
metallic vapors, and the corona, which
is only observable during the time of
total eclipse.
Of the 3,500,0G0 square miles of Can
ada there are between 100000 and
100000 Of square miles which will
produce neither cereals nor forests of
q commercial value. Of this territory
there is tract Of 100000 square miles
Inhabited by fur-bearing animals, and
known to the Indians as the bare and
treeless plains. CT the barren lands.
The working of plan of ventilation
of rooms devised by DR.. Castaing, prin-
cipal physician of the French armies,
is highly commended. 1t consists in the
use of double windows, with openings
at the bottom of one and at the top of
the opposite one, through which the
air comes in freely without anyone feel
ing it. The system is said to possess
simplicity, efficiency and cheapness.
According to the recent calculations
of Prof. j. c. Kapteyn, of Amsterdam,
100000 miles a day is the velocity with
which the sun and its planets are speed
ing through space in a northerly direc-
ton. The brightest star in that Fart
of the heavens toward which we are go
ing is the brilliant Vega, in the constel-
lation Lyra, sun unquestionably much
greater than ours. Every year, by Prof.
Kapetyn's estimate, we draw some 3O0,-
000,000 miles nearer to that star.

WHAT SHAVING COSTS.
A Statistical Ficnd who Has Figured
1t All Out.


1t All Out.
The statistician who had been busy
with his pencil looked up at the man
who hates figures and said:

thought I'd figure a little. You know
that if | were cast on desert island
with a bundle of lead pencils and plenty
Of paper wouldn't care cent whether
n sail hove in sight or not. saw that
you needed shave, and that set me TO
thinking. Why do you shave, anyhow?
| never do Look here.
We'll suppose that you began shay
ing at IS years of age and that you keep
it up until you are 70. That makes 50
years. You have heavy beard. Wen
suppose that you shave twice week
That costs Is cents shave, and you get
rid cf one-eighth Of an inch of hair.
That will be quarter of an Inch

Of that inch you pay s1.2o. An inch
month is 12 inches year, costing you

''Now"-and the statistician drew
long breath-"12 inches Il year for 81

LAWS AGAINST WOMEN.
One of the Nest Flogrcnt Cases OF
Injustice Cited.

Injustice Cited.
The law which makes the nationality
of wife depend on that of her hus-
band has worked much hardship in this
country as we'll as abroad. But one of
the most fragrant cases of injustice
arising from this huniliating status is
cited by Agnes E. Cook as occurring Ct
Gibraltar, the British military station
en- the Mediterranean.
No alien can live in Gibraltar without
q special permit, SO if a British girl mar
ries q Spanish subject she passes out
with him to live in Spain and neither
she nor her children, even though she
be a widow, can return. Her male rel
atives can marry Spanish wives and
take them into Gibraltar, but she is an
alien forever. The case referred to is
that of a British girl who married q
Span;ard named Garzon. He was suffi-
ciently useful to the British to be al
lowed to live there by special permit.
Last year he died, and it would have
seemed very proper for his widow to
have remained with her parents in Glib
raltar, who were very anxious to make
a home for her and to have her with
them. Her baby was born five days
after her husbands death, and the au-
thorities generously allowed her to re-
main with her mother until she had
somewhat recovered from her illness.
Her mother by her entreaties OBJ
tained from the police an extension of
this time for ten days, but then the
poor young woman, in cnfeebled health
and without means of support, was
obliged to quit the garrison. 1t takes
an individual outrage like this to show
the possible and legitimate outcome of
the unjust discrimination against the
married woman. If men had delib-
cratcly planned how they could keep
self-rcspecting women out OF the mar
riage condition they could not have de-
vised any measure worse than the dis
abilities which law has heaped upon
woman in maria iage-Woman's Signal
