Great consternation was felt by the friends of M. A. Hogarty of Lexington, Ky, when they saw he was turning yell low. His skin slowly changed color, also his eyes, and he suffered terribly. His malady was yellow jaundice. He was treated by the best doctors, but without benefit. Then he was advised to try Electric Bitters, the wonderful stomach and liver remedy, and he writes: After taking two bottles I was wholly cured" A trial proves it's matchless merit for all stomach, liver and kidney troubles.

A CURIOSITY OF ALASKA.
Beaches Formed by DriftwOOd From

Beaches Formed by DriftwOOd From
All Over the World.
One of the greatest curiosities noted
by travellers in Alaska is the wonderful
haven Of driftwood on the coast be-
tween Yakatag and Kyak islands,
some loo or 1,oOO miles northeast
from Seattle. The constant deposit
of logs and driftwood in this particular
spot. which has been going on for hun.
dreds perhaps thousands. of years. Is
due to the phenomena Of the tides. the
Pacific gulf stream, the mysterious
ocean currents and the peculiar forma-
ton Of the shore lines at that point.
Logs and timbers are readily identi-
fed there as having come from Japan.
China. India and other parts Of Asia.
as well as from California. Washing
ton and other parts Of the American
continent. There are fine logs of the
camphor tree. the mahogany. the red
wood and the pine in this driftage.
Some of those from the state of Wash
ington contain the names of the men
who felled the trees and Of the saw
mills for Which they were destined.
but never reached. Logs eight feet in
diameter are in this novel woodward.
and some entire trees 80 feet long are
there. up!ifted by the roots. cast into
the sea by some terrible tempest and
sent floating round the world. Other
persons on the beach descry big trecs
floating shoreward. with fantastic
roots above the waves like some sea
monster. One beach after another has
been formed by the floating timbers.
and little distance back from the
shore the deposits are so old that the
wood in some places is petritied. while
a little deeper in the earth it has turin
ed into coal. The newer logs are with
out bark and as hard as stone. due. it
Is thought. to their long immersion in
salt water. They have all taken on a
whitish appearance. In places the
timbers are piled 20 feet high; at other
points they rise to height Of only
four or five feet.
Under this wonderful beach are found
large quantities OF dark. ruby sand.'
rich in fine particles of gold, for the

A Lost King.

In olden times. when European kings
were as plentiful as Kentucky colonies
are today, it was not an exceptional
occurrence for king to disappear and
never been heard of again. In ancient
times. however, the people have been
more careful Of their kings.
So when King Sebastian of Portugal
disappeared in battle July 90. 1878,
while fighting the Moors at Alcazar.
there was great commotion. The Moors
surrendered to the Portuguese a body
said to be that of the king, but it was
rumored that the Moors had the king
alive in custody.
The surrendered body was buried
with royal honors at Belem. but the
faithful Portuguese persisted in wait
ing for the return Of their king. Long
after he would have died in the course
of nature his countrymen longingly
awaited his coming.
Even up to this day the legend of the
return of King Sebastian is believed by
many. and on stormy nights credulous
Portuguese citizens will wrap their
cloaks about them and 60 outside and
watch the storm. thinking that the
king may appear in a cloud of fire
again to rule.
