TEDDY AND BOOKER.

announces Booker T. Washington
was recent visitor at the White
House to advise President Rcose-
welt in regard to southern appoint
ments.
Teddy had a little lamb
His skin was like old gold.
And every where that Teddy went
The lamb was there It's told.
Book went with Ted to dine one day
But that was 'gainst the rule
1t n ade some people swear they say
Whose tongues they we'll do school.
But Teddy did not turn him out,
No, that was not the plan
Book visits Ted, there is no doubt,
To name the office man.
"What makes Booker love Teddy
SOP"
The northern folks all cried;
"Oh Teddy loves black sheep you
know"
The southrons wise replied.

AN HONEST MANS OPINION.

Vermont, Mo-, April 2sth.-If what
Mr.. j. S. Tillery, of this place, says is
true-and none who know him doubt
his honesty-the new remedy, Dodd's
Kidney Pills, is wonderful medicine
indeed. Mr.. Tillery says:
81 had Kidney and Liver Trouble for
years. 1 had used many medicines but
could get nothing to cure me.
81 heard of a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills and began treat
ment with the result that 1 was very
soon on the mend.
81 kept on using the pills and am now
! entirely better. l honestly do believe
that they are the greatest remedy the
world has ever seen.
II am always willing to help good
thing and I cannot say too much for
one that helped me so much.
''If didn't know that Dodd's Kidney
Pills would do all that is claimed for
them wouldn't say word of praise
for them"

REFUGEES FOR LuNAT1cs.
Tendency of Many Insane to Pass
Their Time in Public Libraries
Evidence of Carlyle.

when is library not library 2"
when it is an asylum" appears to be
the answer suggested by the presiden-
tial address to the Library association
by Mr.. Fortescue. AS keeper of the
printed books at the British museum
Mr.. Fortescue ought to know, and what
he says is that there is always tend
ency among such as are close to the
abyss of insanity to cleave to the pub
lie library" Mr.. Fortescue's remark
reminds us of some amusing character
istic evidence which Carlysle gave to
a commission on the British museum
half century ago, says the London
Chronicle.
There are several persons" he said,
"who come to read in the British mu-
scum in state of imbecility. They
are sent there by their friends to pass
away their time. / remember there
was one gentleman who used to blow
his nose very loudly every half-hour..
l inquired who he was, and 1 was in
formed that he was mad person sent
by his friends. He made extracts out
of books and puddled away his time
there" Mr.. Fortescue's feeling re-
marks about the affection of the inn
beetle for the public library seems to
suggest that the race of "puddlers" de-
nounced by Carlyle is not yet extinct
at the British museum.

HOW CHEAP BAKING POWDER
is MADE.

The Health Department of New
York has seized quantity of so-called
cheap baking powder, which it found
in that city. Attention was attracted
to it by the low price at which it was
being sold in the department stores.
Samples were taken and the chemist
Of the Health Department reported
the stuff to be "an alum powder"
which analysis showed to be composed
chiefly of alum and pulverized rock.
The powder was declared to be dam
gerous to health, and several thou
sand pounds were carted to the offal
dock and destroyed.
1t is unsafe to experiment with these
so-called "cheap" articles of food.
They are sure to be made from alum,
rock, or other Injurious matter. In
baking powders, the high class, cream
OF tartar brands are the most eco
nomical, because they go farther in
use and are healthful beyond question.

CHAPTER XIV.
MATS THE RECLAIMED.

Now from where we stood together,
just below the crest of the Sacred
Mountain, we could see down into
the city, which lay spread out below
us like map. The harbor and the
great estuary cleaned at it's farther
side, and the fringe of hills beyond
smoked and fumed in their accus.
toned fashion; the great stone circle
of our Lord the Sun stood up grim
and bare in the middle of the city, and
nearer in reared up the great mass
of the royal pyramid, the gold on it's
sides catching new gold from the sun.
There, too, in the square before the
pyramid stood the throne of granite.

years my love had lain sleeping.

and warm to fight for, and I am a
stronger man by far than the cold
viceroy and soldier that you speak
about"
II have passed my word to that al
ready, and you shall have her, but at
the cost of damaging somewhat this
new kingdom of yours. Maybe, too,
at the same time we shall rid you of
this Phorenice and her brood. But I
do not think it likely. She is too
willy, and, once we begin our play,
she is likely to guess whence it
comes and how it will end, and so
will make an escape before harm can
reach her. The high gods, who have
sent all these trials for our refine
ment, have seen fit to give her some
knowledge of how these earth tremors

stepped back and looked me up and
down. There are not many folk that
would take you for the tidy, clean
chinned Deucalion now, my brother.
Your appearance will be fine arnor
for you down yonder in the city to-
night when we wake it with our
earth-shaking terror. AS you stand
now, you are hairy enough and shag-

More and more violent did the earth

the din of falling houses and the
shrieks and cries of hurt and fright
ened people went louder up into the
night. Thicker grew the dust that

But still the huge capstone that
was carved with the snake and the
outstretched hand held my love fast
locked in her living tomb, and L
could have bit the cold granite at the
impotence which barred me from her.
The people who kept thronging into
the square were mad with terror,
but their very numbers made my
case more desperate every moment.
"Phorenice, goddess, aid us now!"
some cried, and when the prayer did
not bring them instant relief, they

feet were crushed by the grinding
blocks. And now too the great
pyramid itself was commencing to
split and cape and topple. The roofs
of it's splendid chambers gave way,
and the ponderous masonry above
shattered down and filled them. In
part, too, one could see the destruc-
ton now, and not guess at it merely
from the fearful hearings of the
darkness. Thunders had begun to
roar through the black night above
and add their bellowings to this

vivid lightning splashes lit the flying

She had taken her place in the mid

there swaying her supple body to the
shocks. Her face was calm, and it's
loneliness was untouched by the
years. From time to time she
brushed away the dust as it settled
on the short red hair which curled
about her neck. There was no trace

one-half the foundations could be dug
from beneath it, and still the pyramid
would stand four-square under heaven,
more enduring than the hills.

In that night of dust and darkness
it was hard to see the outline of ones

some requital for the love which had
ached so long within me, gave me es-
pecial power of sight. AS watched, I
saw the great carved rock which
formed the capstone of the throne
move slightly, and then move again,
and then again; a tiny jerk for each
earthquake, but still there was an ap-
preciable shifting; and, moreover, the
stone moved always to one side.
