A provident plumber, on leaving his
home for a holiday with his family,
placed a placard just inside the hall
door couched in the following Ian
guage:
ITO burglars or those intending to
burgle: All my plated jewelry and 9TH
er valuables are In the Safe Deposit
company's vaults. The trunks, cup
boards, etc., contain nothing but Sec
ondhand clothing and similar matter
too bulky to remove, on which you
would realize comparatively little. The
keys are in the left hand top drawer
of the sideboard-if you doubt my
word. You will also find there check
to bearer for SIS, which will remuner-
ate you for the loss Of time and disap-
pointment. Please wipe your feet on
the mat and don't spill any candle
grease on the carpets. "-Collier's Week

There is fascination about big profits
to business man. But the conservative
and cautious trader prefers to have the
lesser per cent of interest and the larger
per cent of safety in his investments.
There is no business man who would not
consider it a sound proposition to invest
in an enterprise to which absolute loss was
impossible and which offered ninety
eight chances in hundred of rich pro
fit. The statistics of cures effected by
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
show that ninety eight per cent of cases
of weak lungs can be absolutely cured.
Almost if not all forms of physical weak
ness may be traced to starvation. Starva-
ton saps the strength. The body is just
as much starved when the stomach can
not extract nutrition from the food it re-
ceives as when there is no food. Weak
lungs, blonchial affections, obstinate
conghs, call for nourishment. Golden
Medical Discovery supplies that nourish-
ment in its most condensed and assimilable
form. 1t makes weak lungs strong, by
strengthening the stomach and organs Of
digestion which digest and distribute the
food, and by increasing the supply Of
pure blood.

Scientists frequently remind us that
gems possess life-organic life. Ev-
erybody knows that opals and pearls
grow dull when worn by invalids, and
it has been lately proved that rubies
and the turquoise show the same SEN
sibility. Pearls are most delicate and
lose color and brilliancy and actually
die. Rings and pins should not be
worn by invalids, because the invisible
emanations of disease penetrate the
microscopic interstices Of the gem and
kill it's fe.-Philadelphia Press.

THE Land of the Sky''-Western North
Carolina.
At an altitude of nearly 1850 feet above
the sea Asheville is one of Natures most
charming sanitariums. Here, as now
where else, are to be found, in greatest
perfection, ideal climatic conditions; for
neither in summer nor winter are there
extremes in temperature, the seasons be-
ing marked by the calendar rather than
by the weather The temperature maps
prepared by the National Government
show that there is formed by the peculiar
typographical conditions existing on the
Asheville Plateau the ideal thermal belt OF
America. AS health and pleasure resort
it has no superior. The air is balmy and
exhilarating, the elevation guarantees
purity of atmosphere most potent in its
influences upon sufferers from throat and
nervous diseases. Those who visit the
place once will be disposed to do so again;
and the fact that some of the best hotels
in the country are found there will com
plete the allurements to visitors seeking
health or pleasure. The months of April
and May are the most charming season Of
the year to visit Asheville and "The Land
Of the Sky" 1t is easily reached as the
Washington & Southwestern Limited, Of
the Southern Railway, carrying through

A French housekeeper says that in
her country 1t is an invariable rule to
add a little butter and powdered sugar
to coffee beans while they are roast
ing. A very small piece of butter is
needed to the pound, bit perhaps as
large as a hazelnut. and not more than
a teaspoonful of powdered sugar. This
treatment is the secret of the pleasant
burned sugar flavor in French coffee.

Stealthy and sure do follow my preyl
Along the dark canyons, in tangled ferns hiding,
Relentless trail, and remorseless / slay
Strong are my sinews and trackless my winding;
Noiseless as dew is the fall of my paws;
Sheathed in the folds Of their velyety binding
Tougher and sharper than steel are my claws
Swift as sword are my eyes in their seeking,
Piercing the day or the blacklist of nights;
Sleek is my muzzle. with blood often reeking;
Ready my teeth for the foeman who fights.
