FALLIB1L1T1Es OF SCIENCE.
Lord Kelvin Was Puzzled Over the
Impossible Angle of q Ladder
Which Couldn't Fall.

At certain favorite resort in London a
conversation among number of fnanciers
turned upon cable shares and wireless tel
egraphy One confirmed cable worshipper
quoted Lord Kelvin's opinion that the COM
panies had no need to be alarmed at the prog
ress of Marconi, relates a London paper.
"Oh,' exclaimed another, Lord Kelvin be
hanged! 1t is not the first time he has made
a mistake Why, | remember years ago,
when he was plain Billy Thomson, he was
out in the country for ride with his brother.
You know he was always like the old fish
bag that O'Connell tackled. He slept on
a parallelogram, shaved with a spheroid,
watched the process of an ellipse and gen.
orally took - mathematics to bed with him.
Anyhow he never passed anything without
making a ejaculation about it. This time it
was a ladder standing against wall at an
angle which according to all known laws
ought to be impossible, especially as it stood
on smooth concrete at the bottom. He
called his brothers attention. They both
got down, took measurements, made endless
calculations, and considered various theo-
ries to account for the absence of slip. At
last they fixed on some far-fetched explana-
ton just as the farmer hove in sight. Then
they casually called his attention to the
strange circumstance. on, ay,' says the old
man, the ladder? Yes, L put it there for my
hens, and it's pretty tight with the holdfast
at the top!'"

WOMAN'S NURSE CORPS.
Surgeon General Rixey FavOrs Its
Establishment for the United
States Navy.

The first annual report of Surgeon
General Rixey shows that the health of
the navy and marine corps was good
throughout the last fiscal year, the
percentage of sick and the death rate
being lower than for several years. The
most important recommendation of
the report perhaps is that congress
provide for the establishment of a
woman's nurse corps for the navy to
consist of one superintendent, eight
head nurses, Is first-class and "a Sec
ond-classs nurses, these numbers to be
increased at the discretion of the Sec
rotary. The surgeon general says:
"That women are the superiors Of
men for the work of nursing there can
be no question, and the objection that
they are not compatible with military
conditions can scarcely apply to insti-
tutions of the character of our large
naval hospitals"
The surgeon general also makes a
strong plea for the appointment Of
dentists for the navy, pointing out that
many otherwise good recruits for the
service are lost for lack of dental care.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
ton and commenda ton testifying to
the merits of Pe-ru-na as a catarrh
remedy are pouring in from every State
in the Union. DR.. Hartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. All
classes write these letters, from the
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the states
man, the preacher-all agree that Pc
ru-na is the catarrh remedy of the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing ca
tarrh as their greatest enemy, are es-
pecially enthusiastic in their praise
and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only abso-
lutte safeguard known. A cold is the
beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out
of it's victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures
catarrh, but prevents. Every house
hold should be supplied with this great
remedy for coughs, colds and so forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con.

On the Verge of Bright's
Disease.-A Quick Cure
that Lasted.

CASE NO. 30,611.-S. E. Boies, deal
er in grain and feed, sos South Water
Street, Akron, o., made the following
statement in 1896, he said: "Ever
since the Civil War have had attacks
of kidney and bladder troubles, decid-
eddy worse during the last two or
three years. Although I consulted
physicians, some of whom told me I
was verging on Bright's disease, and
I was continually using standard rem
edies, the excruciating aching just
across the kidneys, which radiated to
the shoulder blades, still existed. AS
might be expected when my kidneys
were in a disturbed condition, there
was distressing and announcement
difficulty with the action of the kid
ney secretions. A box of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, procured at Lamparter &
Co.'s drug store, brought such "a de-
cided change within week that /
continued the treatment. The last
attack, and it was particularly ag-
grayated. Disappeared"

St. Jacobs Oil.

In cases where bronchitis has become
chronic from want of proper treatment in
the earlier stages, there is nothing SO good
as Dr. August Koenig's Hamburg Breast
Tea, in conjunction with which is strongly
advised the use of st. Jacobs Oil as an out
ward application, along the front of the
throat, from close up under the chin to well
down to the top of the chest; the one rem
edy assists the other, and, as intended, they
work in complete unison. The wonderful
penetrating power of st. Jacobs Oil en-
ables it to reach the adhesion of foreign
matter which lines the bronchial tubes and
which makes breathing more and more diff.
Gcult. As these adhesions become inf1amed
and enlarged, st. Jacobs Oil causes such ad-
hesions to break away, making expectora,
ton easier and more free. DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea, drank slowly
is comforting and quieting, stops the cough
and relieves the breathing. This manner
of treatment land there is no other two
remedies that will work together so sue
cessfully) reaches the difficulty from the
outside and the inside at the same time
st. Jacobs Oil reaches the roots of the ad
hesion, and assists DR.. August Koenig's
Hamburg Breast Tea in clearing them; ther
both remedies act in unison in healing and
curing. The above remarks apply with equal
force in cases of asthma, Group, whooping
cough, enlarged tonsils, and all bronchial
affections. Every family should have st
Jacobs Oil and DR.. August Koenig's Ham
burg Breast Tea always in the house in or
der that they may be promptly used in the
first stages. Often the maladies develope
with wonderful rapidity, and complications
take place with equal suddenness.

Three Years After.

Mr.. Boies says in 1899: SIN the
spring of 1896 made public state
ment of my experience with Doan's
Kidney Pills. This remedy cured me
of a terrible aching in the kidneys,
in the small of my back, in the mus
cles of the shoulder blades, and in the
limbs. During the yearsthat have gone
by can conscientiouslys say there have
been no occurrences of my old trouble.
Ny confidence in Doan's Kidney Pills
is stronger than ever, not only from
my personal experience but from the
experience of many others in Akron
which have come to my notice."

CHROMATIC AFFLICTION.
Facial Indications in the Case Of q
Bibul0us Patient Suggested
the Rainbow.

A Virginia reader sends story told by
the late Alban S. Payne as an actual occur
renee, says the Philadelphia Times. 1t con-
cerned hard-riding, hard-drinking young
Englishman, who settled near Linden, that
state, in the expressed hope that the rustic
surroundings would prove an aid in Kidding
him of his abnormal thirst. But he chung
to his old habits, and soon became a con-
noisseur in moonshine Installations, rather
preferring them, after time, to those bear
ing the government stamp. His face was a
mingled purple and sunset red, the Joint
product of whisky and an open-air life; and
he had nothing of charm apart from his
faultless manners to offer the pretty noun
tain girl who consented to become his wife.
One afternoon he was carried home, pretty
well mussed up as the result of fall. The
gravel of the roadside, the green of the grass
and the smear from some cuts added to the
colorfulness of his countenance; and the
young wife, when DR.. Payne arrived, rushed
out on the porch, screaming:
"Oh, doctor! doctor! 90 in to him-quick!
He has all the diseases of the rainbow"

A PUBLIC CHRISTENING.
The Minneapolis s. st. Louis Railroad Will
Let the Public Choose Name for Its
Elegant New Chicago Train.

In reply to Shakspeare's famous
query, whats in name the Mime
apolis & St. Louis road has decided
that there's good deal in just the right
title, especially when it comes to trains.
On Nov. 2 the NJ & ST. L. is to inaug-
urate its new service through Mime
sofa, Iowa and Illinois to Chicago and
inasmuch as the new train is for the
benefit of the public, A. B. Cults, gen.
eral passenger agent of the M. & St.
L. has decided to let the public do the
christening.
For the best name submitted for the
new train, prize of one bright SEQ
gold piece will be paid.
In addition, if the best name is sub
mitted by public school pupil, there
will be S. gold piece for the prize
winner beside the $40 coin. Mr.. Cults
makes this special inducement to the
children because he believes the young
sters are full of bright ideas which
should be encouraged
The past decade has seen giant
strides made in the art of car building.
Luxuries which only few years ago
were supposed to be reserved for mil
ionaires have been provided to obvlate
the discomforts of travel and to attract
tourists to some particular route. With
the palatial train, came the custom Of
names which suggested in some way
the character of the equipment, or were
appropriate to the road Thus the B.
& O. road has the Royal Blue; the Lee
high Valley, the Black Diamond Ex-
press; the New York Central, the En-
pire State Express, which found its way
onto the Pan American postage
stamps; the Canadian Pacific, the I'M
perial Limited and so on through the
catalogue of expresses, limiteds and
flyers.
The new train of the M. & St. L. is the
latest work of the Pullman company
TO be introduced by any Twin City
Chicago line, and that means it embod-
les all the best and latest ideas with re-
gard to luxury, comfort and elegance.
In addition to the sleepers and coaches
it has library and buffet car which is
NluD oi WliSSio. w
ing into Chicago a diner will be attach
ed for breakfast and dinner will be serv-
ed in the evening under similar ar
rangement The interior finish of the
train is uniform, being mahogany, and
the exterior is done in the handsome,
dark olive green which is so artistically
employed by the Pullman company.
The name for this train must be pat
and euphonious; it must stick in the
l,mind of the traveller who hears it and it
must trip gracefully from the tongue.
1t may be based upon the character OF
the train, the name of the road or OF
the terminal cities or it may be just
name that sounds so we'll that people
will like to say it. These are the only
specifications for this matter of making
name can not be hedged about by
hard and fast rules. However, Mr..
Cults has absolute confidence that the
public will make him spend his $40 or
SIS, as the case may be, to good advan-
tage. All suggestions should be sent
to A. B. Cults, at the Guaranty build
ing, Minneapolis, before Oct. 81.
