Of disease germs in the body as nothing
else does.
John Donohue, OF Chatham, n. Y, suffered from
Serofula and Eczema for many years. All the doc
tors he consulted failed TO give him any relief. At
last, Mr.. Barringer, his druggist, advised him TO
take DR.. Kennedyis new medicine, Caoura Solvent
lie did % and from the very first bottle he benz
Gifted. The painful and foul appearing eruptons
on HE face, hands and body all disappeared and he
has not been troubled with the disease since.
Women are more frequently afflicted with
skin eruptions than men. Their confined
lives, and carelessness about their eating
and bowel movements, tend TO produce
the chronic skin troubles that worry and
disfgure them for years. A treatment with
Cal-cura Solvent restores health and good
looks. Refuse substitutes.

Another Hunting Case.

But another one about hunters: A
field hand was found dead, with a fear
full cash in his head. It was known
that the man who worked with him
vas his enemy. 1t was short work
making conviction, and ,he poor fel-
low was jerked to eternity at the end
Of a rope. Many years afterWard a
rich planter confessed that While out
hunting his hounds had run rabbit
through the field and the laborer had
spoken roughly to him about trespas-
sing on the grounds The planter was
on his horse and cut at the man with
his riding whip. and in lodging the
whip the laborer had fallen, striking
his head on a shovel which stood near.
The fall was of sufficient force to cause
a fractured skull from which injuries
the poor fellow died. When the plant
err discovered what had been the re-
suit of his anger in striking at the
man lie 1oIl the I6lu, anu 1t Was HOT
until on his deathbed that he made a
confession.
"A surgeon well known in society
and in the medical and surgical world
WaE found guilty of numbering his
kitchen maid She was found dead in
the dining room; surgical instrument,
bl0od-stained, was found on the floor,
and in a corner of the room was a
shirt completely saturated With blood.
The shirt was marked with the ini
tials of the surgeon; the surgical in
strument was his beyond question; his
family was out of the city; there was
no one home save himself and the
maid. and, Of course, everybody be-
lieved that he had killed her There
was also living witness, an elderly
woman, residing just across the street,
testified at the eoroner,s inquest that
she had been at her window all day
and that she had seen the surgeon en-
ter the house, pull down the shades of
the windows in the dining-room, and
that he had not come out before dark

The other, awakened by the noise

OF the moon beheld the sleeper give
several deadly stabs on the pillow

friend had just taken his head. Sup

for cutting a lemon, and as it had not
been wiped the acid acting On the
metal had caused the appearance of
blood stain. Nothing is more common
than stains resembling blood, and
there are many on whose person or
instruments such have been found, who
would have met the fate of murderers
had they not been living in times Of
scientific discoveries. A few years
since a man was arrested on suspicion
of murder. The collar and upper part
of his shirt were stained with large
spots of deep pinkish color which ap-
peared like blod that had been at
tempted to be washed out, but none
of the color was discharged by the ap-
plication of water, and being turned
Of a light crimson by ammonia it was
proved not to be blood. The stain was
accounted for by its being shown that
the accused had worn red handker-
chief around his neck during rain.
Every stain which resembles blood is
rot blood.

TIE DEMAND FOR FICTION.
ErsuE-s-4

Not So Widespread as is Commonly
Thought, Librarian Concludes.
With the world becoming fuller ot
Carnegie libraries every DAY. aud WITH
jbe number Of books en- library shelves
multiplying as the leaves Gil the trees
in spring, librarians are inquiring
more and more into the attitude Of the
public toward the libraries BY means
of library statistics the librarian feels
the pulse of the book-reading public
ami tries to keep in touch With the
character of the reading done SO that
he may keep such goods on his coun.
ters as are desired.
The fiction read by public library
borrowers in this country, for instance
runs from 65 to S5 per cent. of the
total number of volumes taken out
But, having ascertaned the fiction
percentage, the librarian has only be
gun his examination of reading taste.
John c. Dana, librarian of the New
ark Public Library, recently took fif-
teen working days, from June to
June 20, and had the circulation analyZ-
ed down to the finest point possible,
with interesting results He finds that
cnly 40 per cent of library borrowers
continue to take books frequently after
the first eighteen months. He has
discovered that the borrowers VINO
call constantly for fiction are COM
paratively few.
In an article covering mis- researches,
which will appear in the Library Jour-
nal for August he says:
sThe total number of novels which
were borrowed during the fifteen days
was Sis The total number of per-
sons who borrowed these novels was
4.1S1. Half of these took only one
novel The other half or 1000, took
out 5000 different novels in fifteen
days; ,222 drew two novels each in
that period About 600 took out three
novels each; 276 four novels each;
100 persons drew 500 different novels,
or 5 each, in fifteen days so others
took out 6 novels each; % borrowed
I novels each; 3 persons took out
each; 1 took 9, and 1 drew 10.
THE persistent novel borrower at
a public library is not, then, by the
shaving of these figures, entitled to
I g name legion Librarians generally
have long been of the opinion that 1t
is necessary for them to keep on hand
a large supply of the most recent fic-
ton, without much regard for its qual
ity. and even at some loss Gf fullness
as regards the library,s list of books
II other departments.
"They have thought it was neces-
saJY thus to stock their shelves With
recent popular novels because they
have supposed that the general pub
lI". the mass of their book borrowers,
Y ere all of one mind as to such books.
1ney have been inclined to think that
all their card holders wished the llbr-
ary to keep on hand a good supply OF
the latest novels.
Our figures, based on an invesuga-
ton of only fifteen days, are, OF
course. net conclusive, but they point
very strongly to the conclusion that
out of the total number OF persons
who make use of the library to the eX-
tent of taking out cards very small
percentage are making inquiry for
recent novels OF even for fiction at
all New York Sun.
