LIVES ON FRUIT AND NUTS.

A Resident of Samoa Who Does Not
Miss the Products Of the Cook Stove.
Herbert Ossg has established himself
in Samoa among his German fellow
countrymen and may remain there Mr..
Ossig lived some years in Hawaii,
learned English here and made many
friends who will be glad to learn that he
is doing well in his new home.
This young German is an interesting
character. No woman has fairer
complexion and a clearer eye than he
and no man Of his age has greater
capacity for hard work. He lays 1t all
to his diet. Ossig does not believe in
meat eating anywhere, least of all in a
prise his daily menu, his drink being
distilled water and lemonade Some
times he tries the nut pastes and other
preparations of certain santorium, but
as rule he confines himself to the raw
material.
Il used to eat meat nc said before
leaving for Samoa, land l liked it,
more nourishment and fewer earth salts
from fruit and nuts and after sticking
to that diet for Il while | got to loathing
meat. At the same time my general
health improved; my mind was clearer
and my muscular vigor seemed to in
crease. Friends tell me that my COM
plexion soon cleared up.
''The thing to do for the sake Of Ions
life and no tormenting ailments is to
diminish the amount Of earth salts that
enters the system. These salts clog the
arteries with calcareous deposits and
bring. on the phenomena of old age.
The less calcareous matter the more
juvenility. [ use distilled water to dis
solve such earth salts as my system has
already absorbed and carry them away.
The pure condensed steam, cooled in full
and tightly-corked bottles and drank
without much exposure to the air alb
serbs these foreign substances and they
pass off. Look at me and see if you
don't think my system the right one:';
Certainly OsSig was the picture of
health-ruddy, sinewy, elastic OF step,
bright of eye. Perhaps his hardy Ger
man parents had more to do with his
looks than have bananas and distilled
water, but OSSig says ii YOU think that
just try his dietary and note the effect
in your own system.-From the Pacific
Commercial Advertiser.

Draper Memorial Photographs.
The announcement is made by Prof. f..

Mrs. Fleming has found Il new star in
the constellation of the Eagle. Its posi-
ton is about ten degrees southwest or

and October ~. 1899, but is not found
on any of ninety-SlX plates. taken be-
tween August u. 1856, and November

light came from incandescent gaseous
matter. \ photograph taken on October

those Of gaseous nebulae. and this is the.

its brief career by becoming a nebula, d,

count for either. The last nova pre-

crust over which the waves cannot climb

There is no truth in the report that to
Cora Lady Stanford will be offered the
hrst vacancy in the Queens household
as lady III waiting, and at no time in the
history of the English court has an
American held such a position, although
friend in the Baroness Van der Weyer.
The Byng family, to which Lady Straf-
ford belongs by her marriage. has served
the royal household for years. Nine. de

Queen up to the time of her MARRIAGE
There has not been tho best of feeling
between the house of Byng and the wild
owed American countess. The late Earl
OF Stanford was a great favOritc at
court, but his brother, the present earl,
formerly known as Canon "Poodle"
Ryng, does not enjoy the same favor.
