A BIRD WITH AN APRON.
A Specimen Of the Curious Trasopan

One OF the birds exhibited n, the

bird do the thing without paying any
admission fee. but the records OF the
creatures act may be counted on the
fingers of one hand.
The bird Is Tcnminck's tragopan, a
species OF pheasant, Its beauty OF
plumage is beyond comparison with
anything in art and is rlvalcd In its
varied hucs only by the feathers OF the
peacock and the Argus pheasant. The
tragopan has rolled under its chin like

that an increasing and permanent I'm
provement In the atmosphere Of Lon
don may be brought about. Two
things most distinctly point TO future
developments which will all be In the
right direction. These are the use
OF gaseous fuel and the more general
adoption OF electrical methods.
The gas which Is used for lighting
purposes is now being largely employ
ed for purposes OF cooking. and also,
though In smaller degree. for the
fires In the living rooms OF houses.
The more this use OF gas will con-
tinue to grow the less will Ike the
domestic smoke. But apart from the
iDborn repugnacc which many people
feel to gas fire in place OF coal
tire, the cost OF illuminating gus is
too great to permit Its general adop-
ton. If only the gas companies would

the greatly reduced price of this would
give an impetus TO the use
OF gaseous fuel. and one way
would be opened toward the
lesscning OF the smoke. A gaseous

having no illuminating qualities can
be made very chcaply, and could he
used in place of coal for many In
dustral purposes.
But 1t is possible to look even little
further ahead, to the time when illum-
mating gas will no longer be used,
and its place be entirely taken up by
electricity. When this comes to pass,
London will still be intcrsected -

that the domestic smoke, and that

This idea may appear TO be rather Tito
plan. but 1t may be asked. who would
have dared TO predict thirty years age
that in 1901 electric light would have
replaced illuminatin. gas 10 the extent
to which 1t has?
Another possibility. which amounts
almost to probability. is that IN the
course OF n few yenrs the development
OF power will become much more cen
tralized and will be distributed elec
trically. The further this Is carried
the fewer will be the Industrial chin

WORTH 100000, 900.

The President of certain big Oil Com
pany is said to be worth $500, 100000. A
tidy bit of money and no mistake. And
yet he isn't happy. In an address to Bible
class he spoke of trials and troubles of the
rich and the loads they have to carry. A
young lady whispered to friend that he
might wear O Benson's Porous Plaster on his
back or, better still, divide the money among
the members of the class. l don't know
why her idea about the plaster makes me
want to laugh, but it does. All the same
have seen plenty Of people laugh after
putting Benson's Plasters on their backs
Or chests, or on any other spot where there
was weight, heaviness, weakness or pain.
, 1t may be the sharp stabs of neuralgia, the
Naches and wrenches Of rheumatism it may
ibe colds in muscles or bones; it may be
those kidney or lumbago thrusts that make
you yell as at dog bite; or it may be q
strain or cramp, anything that wants quiet
ing and comforting. Don't bother with
salves, liniments, lotions, etc., or with any
of the stupid and useless old style plasters.
Clap on a Benson's. 1t relieves at once
and cures quickly. It stops the pain and
makes you laugh for the very ease and good

low in his body as in any other mans.
If a millionaire's blood be impure, his
wealth can't preserve him from the skin
eruptions which usually indicate the
blood's impurity. And if either king or
millionaire wants to be cured, he has to
use the means open to the poorest person
in the land. There is no royal road to
health more than to learning.
ALL PEOPLE ARE ALIKE.
Since we are all alike, flesh and blood,
then what cures disease of flesh and
blood in one case should cure it in any
case under similar conditions. That was
the argument of the man who was bed
fast and the sequel proved it to be sound
and logical.
vQuite number of years ago, when
was girl at home, my father was pros
trated upon a bed of Sickness" writes
Mrs. p M Wheeler, of No. 2 Ann Place,
Bradford, Pa. vHe had rheumatism and
a complication of troubles which baffled
the skill of three of our best physicians.
All through the winter months he lay
upon his bed, suffering severely at times
with rheumatism in his limbs. While in
this condition a pamphlet containing a
description Of DIR. Pierce's remedies fell
into his hands. do not remember
whether it was left at the door or came
through the mails, but do remember
of his sitting up in bed and reading it
through and then exclaiming, That
medicine is just what need Send for
a bottle at once Just then a neighbor
came along who was going to town 1--WE
lived in the country, five miles from the
nearest drug STOREY and we sent for
bottle of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. We laid aside the Doctors
medicines and commenced giving nv
father the Golden Medical Discovery,
according to directions. The first three
days he felt worse, as is often the case.
After that he commenced to gain. His

There was an. unusual amount of bru-
