Sickness steals more savings than the
burglar. Slowly, coin by coin, the
money that has been so hardly earned
is paid out for drugs and doctors.
Sickness is the worst enemy OF the work
ing man, and the common cause OF the
working mans sickness is disease of the
stomach often involving the heart, lungs,
liver, or kidneys.
The use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Med.

THE COST OF
LAND REGISTRATION

The Registrar of the Court of Land
Registration has compiled a table Of
costs of court from which an applicant
may compute the costs of registering
his title to land. 1t will be seen that
the costs Of court may be estimated
very closely on the basis of s31 and $3.50
per thousand dollars of assessed value
of the real property.
This rule Is close enough for all or
binary purposes, and is made up from
the costs shown in the itemized
table. The cost to the applicant is
light for all ordinary homesteads or
properties under 100000. The costs
SlSD do not amount TO the sum paid
for an abstract and opinion on the
sale or mortgage of a property worth
100000. and yet the government for
this figure insures the title to the
purchaser, and the boundaries are
finally settled. For a property worth
$4,000. s46 is charged, less than the
costs OF deed and opinion on title
in each case OF transfer of the property.

CHICAGO LAUDS -,
OUR OWN THERESA

The power of Hawaii's political boss
is waning since Princess Theresa Will
cox failed to carry the Home Rule con.
vention. For Hawaii's political boss Is
woman and also princess Of the
royal blood. That Is, she says she Is q.
princess, and no one who has felt the
sting Of her tongue dares to say her
nay.
The Princess Theresa is the most
prominent person before the Hawaiian
public today. When Queen Liliuokalani
ruled the island Mrs. Wilcox did not
count for much in the political life Of
the country. 1t was after the American
form Of government was instituted that
she came into power.
Mrs. Wilcox wanted this power and
brought Wilcox into the race for con-
gress. She also organized a home rule
woman's club. 1t elected her husband
as delegate, and for two years the prin-
cess enjoyed the distinction Of being
the social leader Of the islands. Mrs
Wilcox, when she was not in Washing
ton, bossed the home rule party in the
islands.
When Wilcox returned a few months
ago. having finished his term in con-
gress, he was i'll and reported to be dy-
ing. His wife took up the reins of party
control and kept things going in the
committee until Wilcox was able to be
out, and presided at meetings of the ex-
ecutive committee. One man who had
the temerity to object was read out
Of the party.
The princess started a newspaper for
the purpose of electing a good, clean
ticket to start off the county govern
ment. She told her constituents Just
what she wanted, and then they turned
her down. The princess left the con-
vention hall in huff. Her husband is
candidate now for sheriff. She an
nounced her intention of deserving the
home rule party, all excepting her hus-
band and a few other friends and rel
atives on the ticket.-Inter-O Ocean.

ANOTHER TREASURE
SEARCH FAILURE

The members of yet another fruitless
expedition which has been engaged in
the endeavor to find the enormous
treasures supposed to be hidden on
Cocos Island, in the Pacific, have Just
returned to England, says the London
Mail. Their return has been as secret
as was their departure, and although
they are all we'll known members of an
important West End Club, few people
mot even their intimate friends) have
any notion that they have been en-
gagged in a risky and exciting expedi-
ton.
The party-who We're in possession of
what they considered a most reliable
clue to the whereabouts of the treasure
left London by different routes, and
met in Mexico City, having arranged
before starting for a vessel to meet
them at a remote port on the Pacific
coast
After running the gauntlet of yellow
fever and typhoid in Mexico, says one
of the members now returned, they
took train for this port, and endured
five days journey, during which the
train was more often off the rails than
on, They We're frequently stuck in the
middle of swamps and marshes, and
driven nearly mad by mosquitoes and
the heat. They passed many nights
without sleep and many days without
food.
At length they reached the port,
went on board their ship. and eventual
ly arrived at the famous treasure ISL
and. The first thing with which they
We're struck was the number of names
chiselled on the rocks. The dates at
tached to these inscriptions went back
nearly century. one of the most dis
tinct was:
II. b. Majesty's Steam Frigate Samp-
son. Sir C. Seymour, Bart: Captain
Henderson. 1s47.
The party spent a most arduous and
uncomfortable time in searching for
the treasure. They had to cut their
way through thick and entangled vege-
tation, and suffered much from the at
tacks of red ants, with which the ISL
and abounds. But they worked on,
alternately scorched by the broillng sun
and drenched by the pouring rain.
The place was found as described by
the clue in their possession. but the
rain had brought down SO much soil
that the party was not strong enough
to remove it, and had finally to give I'D
their search,
AS the confidence OF the leader is I'M
impaired 1t is possible that another ex-
petition may be organized.
