Prof. Gautier of the Institute of France has isolated the bacteria of physical fatigue" and finds 1t poison strongly resembling ptomalne poison in nature" Instead of really becoming tired one develops ptomaines and they make him think he Is tired. The pro- fessor's next step Is strictly logical. He proposes by the use of disinfect- ants to destroy the ptomaines general ed and thus avoid that tired feeling. In this way, no longer suffering from wear and tear, man need neither weak en nor age. Suppose the professor had a cord of wood to saw. As he pro- ceeds to wiggle the bucksaw up and down, he suddenly detects the effects of ptomaine poison in his system. He rushes to little cavity in the wood pile and drags therefrom a small bottle of dislnfectant with which he treats the ptomaines, thus relieving his fa- tigue. AS we read the professors the ory and remedy given in recent num- Der of the London Express. we detect the development of ptomaines in our system.

A TIMELY SUGGESTION.

This is the season of the year when the careful and prudent housewife re- plenishes her supply of Chamberlain s Cough Remedy. It is certain to be needed before the winter is over, and results are much more prompt and satisfactory when 1t is kept at hand and given as soon as the cold is con tracted and before it has become set tied in the system. In almost every instance a severe cold may be warded off by taking this remedy freely as soon as the first indication of the cold appears There is no danger in giY- ing it to children for it contains no harmful substance. It is pleasant to take-both adults and children like it. Buy it and you will get the best. It always cures. For sale by all drug gists.

TIMBER OF FyALAsKAN ISLANDS
lGreaf Forest Reserve of AIexandea sArchipelEo Recently Created bE <
 fhe President. ..--


 eff were to tell you that in far. becoming known, there is an exten, sive forest in which are found mum. .l,erless trees from sixst to eight feet in diameter and 200 feet in height lyou would question my veracity,s said an official of theTinterior depart rment the other day. Nevertheless, that@is the~faetnsyhe added. ''Presi- rdentsR Roosevelt recently created a for. lest reserve, embracing most of the islands Gf the Alexander archipelago, lying on the southeast coast ot Alaska.
 ''These islands, mountainous in character, extendsalong the coast for about. 26D miles, and from the shore ito their outer: limits is about 60 miles. It is a fact that practically levery foot Of soil is covered with dense vegetable life. trees of mann moth size growing abundantly from lthe coast clear.up the mountain sides Ito an elevation of 2,0o0for 2,5oo feet. Practically all of the valuable timber tof Alaska is concentrated in this group of islands, and only a little of it has been cut.
 'S People generally have miscon- 4ception of. climatic conditions in Alas lka, especially the southeastern pam handle. It is a matter of record that lon the Alexander archipelago there is an annual rainfall of so inches, much of the moisture descending in ithe form of "a gentle mist, keeping ffhe soil constantly damp. The warm Japan currentsruns~in close by, mod lerating the temperature. Snow is practically unknown, yet few miles fin on the mainland the winters are 6severe. There the effects of the Japan ecurrent are but little felt.
 ssThe forests of the archipelago 6were recently. studied by an officer llof the navy department sent for that lipurpose He reported that only the Ilepruce and hem1ock reach the pro. lEportions I have given you, although Rve1low cedar, a most valuable wood often reaches a diameter of three tc -four feet.

oil of Rntflers.

In Pennsylvania the oil of rattle snakes is preserved most carefully as a nniment especially good for sore joints and for rheumatism. In pro- curing the oil the dead snake is nailed head and tail to board and cut open. The fat is taken out and laid upon a cloth in the hot sun, from which the filtered oil drips into a jar. From fear that the reptile may hare bitten itself, the clear oil is tested by dropping a portion of it into milk. If it floats in one globule 1t is regarded as unaffect- ed. If, on the other hand, it breaks into beads and curdles the milk, it is judged to be poisonous and thrown away.-N. Y. Tribune.

This, however, is not the case. Just the opposite is true. A close observation of the con dit1on shows that the productive power has been increased per capita at least ten times in the past 75 or 100 years. Capital and capitalists far from hav- ing been hurt by these conditions. have been benefited. The opportuni- ties have been increased.
