LUMBER FOR MANILA.

SAN FRANCISCO, September S.
Uncle Sam is now engaging sailing YES
sells to carry lumber to Manila. The
campaign that is to be inaugurated as
soon as the troops reach Manila will
result in some permanent improvements
and lumber will be required in the work.
In consequence the four masted bark
entine Willie r. Hume, which has just
returned from the canneries, will go to
Port Gamble and there load lumber for
the Philippines. j. Jansen, owner of the
Levi G. Burgess, Gatherer, c. b. Ken
ney and other vessels, had the contract
to supply the stuff and not having a
suitable craft here he purchased the
barkentine from Hume Brothers. 1t is
understood that several other sailing
vessels will carry lumber to Manila.

Good
SaleSnanShip

ISN'T everything to good store
keeping; even a good salesman fails
when he tries to sell cautiously
clothing that isn't made as it should
be. In the long run only the best
clothing pays; especially when the
best clothing can be had at the
price of the next best. Our cloth
ing is so well made, so attractive
in appearance and looks so desir-
able that it requires less energy
and breath and persuasion on the
part of the salesman to sell it.
After we have sold it once, we
can sell it with still less effort to
the same customer. 1t is the kind
of clothing that brings your custom
er back again and again-the kind
with which we can build up last
ing trade. And that is what we are
doing in all our lines.

QUEER BARGAIN COUNTER.
Where Live Frogs Are Sold by the
Dozen to Anglers for
Dait.

The most remarkable counter in any
department store lately closed its bust
ness after summer of astonishing
prosperity. 1t is located in the sporting
goods department of one of the largest
of the retail establishments of the city,
in the corner devoted to fishing tackle.
The stock in trade of this counter is
frogs, not dressed ready for the table,
but very much alive and kicking, and
covered with the slime of their native
marshes. The frogs are small, too-just
right for bait for the greedy black bass
and pickerel of the streams and lakes
around Chicago. They are sold to
anglers at % cents dozen, and the de-
mand is immense.
On the day before the Fourth of July
this counter disposed of 500 dozen live
frogs. Three attendants were kept
busy all day catching them and hand
ing them out. Many other days showed
sales as high as 800 to 500 dozen. With
the close of good fishing weather in a
week or two the counter will be shut up
for the winter.
The frogs are kept in the store in &
large wire-netting cage, covering six or
eight feet of the counter top. A shallow
parful of water and weeds afford them
congenial surroundings, in which they
appear to thrive. They are fed regular
ly. At night, the employees of the store
say, the frogs hold most musical soirees.
Patrons are served their frogs in small
cotton bags, filled with kicks and
squirms. The stock is replenished
daily by new frogs, caught in the
marshes few miles from Chicago. The
novelty has proved such success that
1t will likely be adopted by all of the
large retail establishments next sum-
mer.-Chicago Tribune.

Confusion of Generations.

1t is not often that grandmother, a
mother and a daughter each bring a
male child into the world on the same
day, but this has just happened at Ga
lieia, on the estate of Count Potoki. The
children are thus great uncle, uncle and
nephew, and as they are all of the same
age there will be some confusion in the
generations of the family. Emperor
Francis Joseph, when he heard of the
occurrence, sent sum of money to be
divided among the three children.-Lon.

ovERExERCIsE.
One OF the Cases Where 1t Is Possible
to Get Too Much of n Good
Thing.

A warning against the lasting injury
often caused by overexercise has been
published by medical journal. Train
ers of athletes find that notthe least I'M
common effect of overeXertion is in
reference with digestion. While mod
crate exercise tends to produce appe-
tite, q long and exhausting eXertion
may destroy it, and even produce ac-
tual sickness, as many mountain
climbers have experienced. In many
large-framed, muscular men of appar-
emily very powerful physique the diges-
ton is so easily upset by muscular ex-
ercise that, although they may be
giants for a transient effort, anything
like sustained exertion disturbs their
digestion and cN at the very root OF
their nutrition. In many cases, how
ever, the limit to exercise lies in dimin-
ished eXcretion. Unless the excretory
organs are kept in good working order
the tissues become crowded with prod
ucts which cannot be got rid of, the
senses become dimmed and effort be-
comes mere automatism, in conse-
quence of a self-poisoning by the prod
ucts of muscular waste. Interference
with digestion so lowers nutrition,
while accumulation of waste products
so poisons the system that in either
case further exertion becomes impossi-
ble-the very will to make it passes
away. But the risk Of straining the
heart by overeXercise is of even graver
character. Every muscular effort not
only demands flow of blood from the
heart, but drives more blood toward it.
So long as the heart can pass this for
ward all is well, but when it fails not
only is the blood vitiated, but the heart
itself sustains serious damage. If when
the heart is overtaXed it simply shirked
its work the enfeebled circulation
| would soon put stop to further exer-
ton. But the more it is taxed the
harder it strains to meet the demand on
its powers, and it may thus enable an
athlete to struggle on to win his race.
But the strained heart suffers, the
stretched muscle does not quite come
back, the dilated cavity does not quite
close at each contraction, and perma-
nent mischief is sci up. Those who have
already acquired tendency to over
exercise will do well to remember that
if it is the heart that stops it the
chances are that it has already gone
too far.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

How Edison Tested vibration on Hat.

Mr.. Edison has always believed in
Harvesting and utilizing the power of
vibration. Not long ago a newspaper
man stopped Edison on Broadway and
told him he had just been to interview
the late Mr.. Kelly, of Kelly motor fame,
and when the newspaper man told Ed
ison that Keely's fundamental idea was
to utilize vibration, the inventor was all

in that" he said. 'Why, 1 have tun-

There is something in it," Then TAX

and standing bareheaded, he said:
Put your hand on the top of this hat
and feel the pulse of the traffic of the
town-that is vibration" And sure
enogh, the top of the hat beat and
throbbed just as the pulse of a human
being. "All of that wasted power he

IN A JUGGLER'S GRASP.
his Amusing but Startling Way OF
Entertaining Friends on
the Stage.

"One day last SPRING said a local
theatrical man, 81 had a funny expert
ence with Fleming, the juggler, who is
well known to New Orleans audiences.
lie happened to be in the city en- route
for Frisco, and asked me to take him
10 a curio shop where he could pick up
few souvenirs for n northern fricno.
Fleming is very solemn-looking indi-
Sdual off the stage and the last man
in the world you would take for vaude-
Vile performer. One of his star tricks
is to pretend to drop an article, and
after a desperate scramble catch it just
before it touches the floor.
while We were looking around in "A
curo shop to which had escorted him
the proprietor called his attention to
beautiful little vase, which happened to
oe a valuable historical relic. Would
YOU allow me to see il in my hands?
asked Fleming. Certainly said the
curio man, and lifted il out of the ease
with the greatest delicacy and care.
How very interesting remarked Flem-
ing, turning it from side to side, and
then all of a sudden it slipped through
his fingers. He made a series of fran
tic clutches, tossing it to and fro, and
keeping it in the air by apparently n
pure miracle until he finally grabbed it
when it was within a couple of inches of
the floor. During this breathless per
Torrance the proprietor stood petrified
with horror, and at each fresh slip he
gave an involuntary shrek. When he
secured his treasure he was as white as
a sheet.
In few moments Fleming did ex-
actly the same thing with an eggshell
teacup that had belonged to Empress
Josephine, and repeated it with a mag
nifcent wedgewood plate. Each time
he did the trick / thought the dealer
would swoon. When he got the plate
in his hands again he proceeded to show
us the door. This is very strange.

custom?' I'd like your custom well

NOTES OF FASHION.
Hints from Over the Water on the
Peculiar styles That Are
Popular.

Nothing will take the place OF
tailor-made gowns" said a leading mo-
d,ste recently returned from Europe,
land they have apparently come TO
stay. The styles are more Jaunty ana
graceful than heretofore. The tight
fitting waist, the box and full front
jackets are extremely chic and are worn
very short. Sleeves are smaller and
either shirred or put in like a mans
coat. Clinging skirts are to be worn,
trimmed with many rows of stitching,
with embroidery or with satin ard tai
fcta stitched bands. Tho popular ma
ferials for these suits are cameTs halr
and rough cheyiot weaves or the
smooth-tinish Venetian and broad
cloth. Oxford Grays, browns, casters
and tans prevail.
II noticed radical change in ladies
dress wraps. The three-quarter and
full-length garments are to be used for
dress occasions, evening. street and car
riage wear. They have the loose French
back, are shaped to the form and have
style and box fronts. Light tan kersey
cloths are the popular materials, some
being trimmed with darker-toned vel
vetin stitched bands and having collars,
revers and front facings of velvet. Flare
and roll collars will be used for the
long coats. Their Innings are of rich
brocades or of soft-fnish silks.
in the medium walking length coats
of &c to 40 inches long are to be popu-
lar. Some of the very fine three-quar-
ter-length garments of the loose back
style are of black velvet, handsomely
embroidered. Velvet is also used in
the short lengths of from 20 to "a inches,
and a nobby effect is obtained. The
short coats are also of stylish rough
and kersey cloths.
Separate skirts are shaped in the
popular habit cut of the close increted
plat, with flare from the knee. These
must be worn with demitrain TO be be-
coming. Kainy-day as well as walking
skirts are made of the stylish double
faced cloths.
