didn't cut his CORNERS.

A writer In the Boston Transcript
gives this "Reminiscences of the Rev. DIR.
Elijah Kellogg of Harpswell, Me-:
Zone Sunday before his sermon the
doctor announced from his pulpit: The
widow Jones' grass is getting pretty
long. | shall be there with my scythe,
rake and pitchfork at o'clock tomer-
row morning. and. hope every male
member of the congregation will be
there too
1.-THE next morning they were all
there and among them Captain Griggs,
six feet two in his stockings. with a
weight OF nearly $50 pounds. Par
son. said he as they were working up
the field near each other, I'm goin to
cut your corners this mornin.'
Now, DR.. Kellogg was a little man,
weighing scarcely more than 100
pounds, but he knew how to handle
a scythe, and, as he told me, with lit
tie shrug of his shoulders. he didn't
cut my corners that morning. More
than that, the man who had thought
he could beat the parson at moving
dropped under a tree exhausted from
working with such a pacemaker."

GRIPS RAVACES.
After-Effects Are Often Worse
than the Trouble ltself-How
They May Be Avoided and
Good Health Restored.
From The journal, Kansas Citg. No

Following every epidemic of the grip
there remains q trail of after-effects
which are often worse than the trouble
itself and which seem to battle all
efforts of physicians. A specific, how
ever, has been found which not only
will quickly restore the health after
an attack of grip and expel the linger-
ing germs but, working through the
blood, will render the system proof
against the disease. In hundreds of
cases it has been shown that DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People have
accomplished this result. One of the
many recent cures is that of Mrs. j. b.
Shaw, Of 2101 Bellefontain avenue,
Kansas City, Mo-, who says:
"When the grip was epidemic here
l was one of its victims and the dis
ease left me in bad state. formerly
had an excellent memory, but after
the attack l could scarcely remember
anything. had severe pains in the top
and back OF my head and was dizzy by
spells. | would lie awake until nearly
morning and then fall into sleep that
was not restful. My heart action was
weak and l was victim of nervous
ness. In fact my health was shattered
by the attack OF the grip and recovery
seemed hopeless.
After being afflicted in this manner
for several weeks, happened to read
an advertisement of Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. Thinking they
might do me good. began taking them
at once. In three days | was much
better and could sleep like child at
night. After using box of the pills
my memory was restored and l felt
greatly encouraged. continued tax
ing them until | had used three boxes
and was in better health than l had
enjoyed for several years.
If stamped envelope is sent for
reply | will gladly answer all Inquiries
relating to my case"

RIDING ON AN AVALANCHE.
Down Steep Canyon without n

Down n Steep Canyon without n
Brnise or Scar.
Few mountaneers go far enough
into the avalanche regions to see much
of them. and fewer still know the
thrilling exhllaration of riding on
them, says John Muir In The Atlantic.
In all my wild mountaineering | have
enjoyed only one avalanche ride, and
the start was so sudden and the end
came so soon | thought but little of
the danger that goes with this sort of
travel, though one thinks fast at such
times.
One calm, bright morning in Yosemite,
after a hearty storm had given three
or four feet of fresh snow to the noun
talns, being eager to sec as many
nvalanches as possible and gain wide
views of the peaks and forests array
cd In their new robes before the sun
shine had time to change or rearrange
them, | set out early to climb by side

ridge little over 5000 feet above the
valley. But ! was not to get top views
of any sort that day, but instead of
these something quite different, for
deep trampling near the canyon head
where the snow was strained started
an avalanche, and | was swished back
down to the foot of the canyon as If by
enchantment. The plodding, wallow-
ing ascent of about n mile had taken
all day, the undoing descent perhaps
about n minute.
When the snow suddenly gave way,
| instinctively threw myself on my
back and spread. my arms to try to
keep from sinking. Fortunately,
though the grade of the canyon was
steep. 1t was not Interrupted by step
levels or precipices big enough to
cause outbounding or free plunging.
On no part of the rush was buried.
| was only moderately lmbedded on
the surface or Il little below 1t and
covered with kissing back streaming
veil. and as the whole mass beneath
or about me joined in the flight | felt
no friction. though tossed here and
there and lurched from side to side,
and when the torrent wedged and
came to rest | found myself on the top
of the crumplcd pile. without single

The True Mission OF Luxury.

No luxury Is justitiabe that ends in
simple enjoyment. 1t must be turned
10 good account by adding to our pow
ets OF usefulness. 1t we enjoy reading,
are we enthusiastic for the public libra
ry! If we enjoy outdoor life. are we
anxious for parks and pleasure
grounds for the people? II we revel In
ART or music. do we long that picture
galleries be thrown open or good music
be altainable by all? DO we strive
whenever possible to share our luxu-
rics whatever they may be. with those
less favored than ourselves. or are we
satisfied with our own enjoyment as an
e''l instead of using it as a means TO
heiterrg the lives of others alsoY
Truthful answers to those questions
will speedily tell us also whether our
own special luxuries are building up
character and life or whether they are
the means of lowering the one and
narrowing the other Philadelphia

Nearly Every known Means of Loco
motion LIS In Use.
Everywhere up the Volga and its
hundred tributaries ascend the iron
barges of the Caspian sea oil fleet,
while through the canals to st. Peters
burg alone pass annually during the
215 days of free navigation thousands
of steamers and barges bearing f1iI-
lions of tons of freight. Every known
means of locomotlon is used, from
men who, like oxen, tramp the tow
paths, hauling the smaller barges, to
powerful tugs that creep along by
means of an endless chain laid in the
bed of the canals and minor rivers,
dragging after them at snail pace great
caravans of heavy barges.
From the greater streams immense
craft nearly 400 feet long, 10 feet in
depth, carrying 5000 tons of freight,
drift down to the Caspian. where they
are broken to pieces to be used as fire.

gives but faint idea of the real traffic
of the river. for in addition there are

The warat Paved City.

Moscow Is probably the worst paw
ed city in the world. Great cobble-
stones driven by hand into loose bed
of sand form a roadway which Is al
ways dusty in summer and muddy In
autumn, and In many of the roads
there Is no attempt at roadway OF
any kind. The streets are badly wa
tered and cleaned.
The city is regarded by the Russians
as ''the holy city," probably because of
the large number of monasteries 1t con-
tains. 1t was once the capital Of the
empire and still enjoys the distinction
of being considered the capital of the
interior, but there does not seem to be
any particular desire on the part of
the authorities to make 1t more worthy
of its title.

In 1864 jacobson & Pence were making
Turpentine at Pentz, California. Two team
sters, stopping at the headquarters of
Butte Greek, ON the western slopes of the
Sierra Nevadas, tapped the large Pitch
Pine forests and gathering the gum, de-
livered it at the Still. While unloading,
Jacobson noticed, by the odor, great diff
ference between this and the gum they had
been distilling. The Still, being filed with
Butte Creek Gum had hardly become
warm, when, to his surprise, the liquid
commenced to pass ever. He caught some
in a cup, and touching a lighted match to
il. it flashed up with beautiful flame.
he knew this was not turpentine, but what,
he could not tell. He submitted it, there
fore, to the best chemists, who pronounced
it Abietene 1t came forward rapidly as a
healing and purifying remedy. In fact it
has been used with great success for about
all diseases to which flesh is heir. Old res

that science has been able to cure in all its

ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous SUR

foundation of the disease, and giving the

A Big One.

An octopus which had been in a fight
with some other monster once drifted
ashore on the Malay peninsula. He had
feelers, or arms, which were from Il
to II feet long and weighed altogether
$50 pounds. 1t was calculated that
he was big enough and strong enough
to drag two ton fishing boat under
the surface by main strength.
