During ihe civil war as well as our late
war with Spain, diatrhoea was one of the
most troublesome diseases the army had
10 contend with. In many instances it
became chronic and the Old soldiers still
suffer from it. Mr.. David Taylor Of Wind

A Hride'A Clever IdeR.

Out in big apartment house on Co
lumbia heights there dwells a young
married woman who Is as naive as the
bride in the comic weeklies. The house
keepers who live in the same house
with her have been somewhat annoyed
of late by mice. The young woman
met one of them In the hall the other
day, and the conversation naturally
turned on their common pests.
"The mice have been so bad lately"
said the elder woman, that | keep ev-
erything locked up and all my eatables
in the boxes"
The younger woman's eyes sparkled
with eagnrness.
N.Y. she said. II wouldn't dare do
that / wouldn't want to run such a
risk. | leave crackers and cheese lying
about every night when | go to bed so
that when the mice become hungry
they'll find something to eat and not
gnaw things. I'm always afraid they'll
bite holes in my new tablecloths and
my nice centerpieces if | don't leave
the cheese right where they can find it
easily. | feel perfectly safe when /
know there's plenty for them to eat
right where they can get ut it."

a clever idea like that now and them

Two Of Nnst's Faces

William Nj. Tweed was a portly man
of medium size with IA long, pendulous
nose, little porcine eyes. fat, drooping
checks snd straight, firm mouth that
was decidedly his best feature. The
outlines of his face were those Of a
Bartlett pear, little end upward, and I
never saw craft SO palpably written
upon human countenance. Mast
used to be fond of drawing Tweed's
face, by the way, as n sack of money.
The general contour of his mead lent
itself to the outlines of the sack. and
he used marks for the nose and eyes.
Strange to say, it was n capital por-
trait
Another of Nast's trick pictures was
one of Roscoe Conkling. He would
draw large letter V, with n smaller
inside it and surmount the pair with
an Interrogation mark upside down.
The big V represented Conkling's point
ed beard, the smaller one his sharp
nose and the Interrogation point the
Hyperion curl which he always allowed
to fall negligently upon his forehead.
That caricature made the naughty SEN
ator wild and eXasperated him more
than any bit of fun that was ever poked
in his dlrection.-New Orleans Times

IL Is not anger alone that makes cats
arch their backs. Indeed, when two
cats are preparing to fight they do not
assume this attitude, but crouch low,
just as they do when about to spring
on their prey. the body being extended
and the hair not In the least erect.
But when, on meeting a dog suddenly,
fear is combined with anger then the
cat, standing at its full height, at once
arches its back, with an instructive ef-
fort to appear as formidable as posi-

In an effectionate frame of mind, rub

Darwin accounts for this In the fol-

there Is strong and involuntary

Vest Was Com mitted.

Il remember well once when Joe
Blackburn and 1 were on the same

during a Democratic administration,
and there had been good deal of
bother trying to get the secretary
of agriculture to agree to a certain
thing and Blackburn had been sent to
taQl him over to the committees plan.
lnf fact, the whole cabinet had been
difficult to deal with. When Joe came
back, several of us were assembled

THE HOUSEHOLD.
CAsose . House Carefully-A Pretty
Pudding = Correct Way to
Make Pea Soup.


There are a few aphorisms which
every inexperienced house hunter
should bear in mind when starting up
on the momentous employment Of look.
ing for healthy house.
Frst.-A damp house is a deadly
house.
Second.-Live on the sunny side OF
the street. where the doctor never
comes.
Third.-The drains are more impor-
tant than the decorations.
Fourth.-We spend at least a third
of our lives in our bedrooms, therefore
they ought to be chosen as carefully as
our drawing rooms, in which we spend
much less time.
Fifth.-A dark, damp, unclean larder
breeds poison.
A healthy house must be dry. sunny
and well drained. Those are three
prime necessities. The amount of ill
ness that comes from damp is as bad
as that which comes from bad drain
age If not greater. 1t is not rheuma-
tism and lung troubles only that come
from residence in a damp house or a
house built on damp soil, but many
others which people as a rule do not
associate with this cause, says Home
Chat.
Indigestion, that mother of mis-
cries." as ii has been called, ricketts,,
consumption, scrofula, neuralgia, weak
eyes, lowered health, which tends to
render the body an easy prey to any
illness that may be going, are a few
samples of the ills that damp may
give rise to in the physical frame.
The inexperienced should know that
there may be several causes for
house being damp. 1t may be built on
built 1t may have taken no precautions
in the way of laying n concrete
or n "dampproof course"
to prevent the house being, when fires
are lighted in 1t, constantly filled with
the air and moisture from the
ground on which IL stands.
Some of the pretty red brick nests
which look so alluring, with their bay
tessellated pathways leading
up to daintily painted hall doors and
tiled hearths, are little better than
death traps. Unthinking people mag
inc that n brick is brick and mortar
Is mortar and these things are all you
They are wrong, however. There are
bricks and brlcks-some good and some
bad, as in everything else. A house
built with bad, cheap bricks will never
be healthy.

What He Would Have Said

In complicated criminal case an old
land surveyor was subpnnaed to give
his professional opinion in the matter.
As the proceedings were about to be-
gin he asked permission to say a few
words, but was called to order sternly
blythe judge, who told him to wait till
hewas questioned. The case then pro-
ceeled. A host Of witnesses were ex-
anfned, and even the prisoner fire.
quently was called upon to make a
statement.
After couple of hours the Judge
sabl to the old surveyor. Now, sir,
we shall be glad to hear what you
haze to say on the whole case"
The witness stood up and replied:
'Iionly wished to remark awhile ago
that | am quite deaf in my left ear and
rather hard of hearing in the right.

GET AT
THE CAUSE
OF Backaches and Headaches, and
Remove II by Using
DR.. A. w. CHASE'S
kIDNEY-LIVER PILLS.

The error of the day in medical treat
ment is the "doctoring" of effects In
stead of getting at the cause. A powder
for headache, tablet for indigestion.
and plaster for backache. These may
afford slight temporary relief, but next
day the old trouble is back again. Be-
sides, think of the effect of a drug
strong enough to stop headaches almost
Immediately.
Backache is kidney ache. A sure In
dication that the kidneys are badly dis.
eased. Backache is natures signal Of
alarm to warn people that the Kidneys
are no longer able to perform their duty
of fltering the blood. And this means
that the foul impurities which would
otherwise be carried off by the kidneys
remain in the blood, and find their way
to every organ of the body, where they
act as deadly poisons.
Dr. Chase's Kidney Liver Pills are the
worlds greatest kidney cure, because
they act directly on the kidneys and re-
store them to health, strength and vigor.
They remove the cause of headaches,
backaches and an endless chain of m ost
fatal and complicated diseases.
DIR. Chase's Kidney Liver Pills are
purely vegetable, and act pleasantly and
naturally. One pill dose; rs cents

Correct Way to Make Pea Scum.

Soup made from split peas Is nourish-
ing, digestible and, if properly made,
also SO appetizlng in appearance that
1t will tempt the daintiest. The secret
of its proper cooking is the binding OF
the particles together In one smooth
whole. Strange to say, this is Sc little
known that, instead Of this good soup
proving a family favorite, it is often
scarcely tolerated. If the reader will
follow the rule given below carefully.
perfect results are assured:
Pick over a cupful of dried split peas
and soak overnight in three pints of
cold water softened with a pinch of
bicarbonate of soda. In the morning

softened water as before and simmer
until the peas are dissolved AS the
water boils away add enough to keep

sionally scrape the sides of the sauce
