How Is Your synov1al F1uide

A curious and interesting fact con-
nected with the study of Human Anat-
ony in that between every muscle of
the body there is a lubricating oil
called Synovial fluid, which enables the
muscles to move with ease. This fluid
is frequently attacked by the dread
enemy of mankind uric acid and the
first intimation that something Is
wrong in that particular part of the
body is telegraphed to the brain
through the nerves announcing the
fact by steady, severe and unbearable
pain. The party SO suffering has
well developed case of what is known
as Muscular rheumatism. 1t is also
a well-known fact established by chem
zeal science that it takes an Alkali to
neutralize an acid Now the next
problem to solve by the sufferer after
these facts are firmly established is to
obtain an Alkali that will neutralize
this uric acid and harmonic perfect
ly with the human system. His friends
at once call his attention to the fact
that Kalola (Crystallized Mineral
Water is a most perfectly harmless
Allali, being a product Of nature. Aft
er taking two or three doses the pain
commences to disappear and the next
day the sufferer is entirely relieved.
Hundreds have been cured by this
simple method. 1t will also cure you.

Two Damseis.

Mr.. G. F. Abbott, who made jour
ney into Macedonia, writes an idyl
with a moral in relating his experience
in getting drink of water, says the
Youths Companion. He refined in De-
side wayside fountain at which a
young girl was filing her pitcher.
The damsel was very fair to look
upon, says Mr.. Abbott, and l was very
thirsty. So l said: Give me, pray
thee, a little water of thy pitcher to
drink"
And she replied: Drink thou, and
l will also withdraw my pitcher, that
my mule may drink likewise
And l, carried away by the charm
of the scene, asked, not for informa-
ton, but for the sake of hearing the
music of her voice:
Whose daughter art thou?"
And she answered: Mind thine own
business, o, strangeri"
And I went away crestfallen, pom
dering over the difference between
Mesopotamia in the days of Abraham
and Macedonia in my own.
AS / entered the village of Provista
a second damsel came forth with her
pitcher on her shoulder She was not
fair to look upon. l made bold to ask
her to direct me to the house OF a
man to whom was recommended.
And she made haste and let down her
pitcher from her shoulder and showed
me the way. And l bowed my head
and offered her a silver coin, which she
declined. Thereupon I offered her a
water lily from my belt. which she ac-
cepted with modest blush: and forth
with she ceased to look plain.
Verify, it is not always the fairest
vessel that contains the sweetest wine.

CURRENT COMMENT,

The New York World (Dem.) savs:
Postmaster General Payne is hard at
work at Washington trying to close
up the multiplex books of the General
Manifold Company before leaving for
a sea voyage. AS there were IA 900
more of these multiplex books bought
last year than were needed, the work
or closing them is naturally an ardu-
Gus one at this season of the year"
The Mobile Register (Dem) says:
There are reports from Washington
that the President has turned to an
assistant secretary of state for agree
able advice in the handling of the
Russian matter, and that Mr.. HAY will
resign in consequence. If so, Mr..
Roosevelt wants to be his own EN-
peror William, and win lose a very
safe counsellor Mr.. Hay has been mis-
genius in the conduct Of foreign ar
fairs
The Philadelphia Ledger qnd) says:
"A recent report of the British labor
department shows that the settlement
of labor controversies by arbitration
Is growing in favor in the United King
dom. During last year $4,000 disputes
respecting wages were settled by con-
citation boards and 10000 by the par
ties themselves. Wage-earners receiv-
ed much less than in 1901, but taking
the period of ten years, from 1898
1902, the whole of the time the sta
tistics have been collected. there was
a slight average increase, about 7
pence per head per week"
The Philadelphia Ledger Qnd.) says:
DR. Wiley of the Department of Ag-
riculture is daring to the point of
toolhardiness. 1t was perfectly safe
for him to experiment with borax; no
one is devoted to borax. and no one
is determined to exterminate borax.
But now he has the temerity to an
nounce that he is going to experiment
with tobacco. If he shall report that
II is innocuous, in moderate quantities,
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union will rise up and demand that
he be abolished and he will be abol-
ished just as the canteen was abol-
ished. If he shall report that tobacco
is deadly poison all the elderly and
robust users of the weed will laugh
him to scorn. He win be a loser,
either way"

The Thin MANS Adventure.

They were talking of strange adven-
lures, says the New York Press. The
big man from the Northwest told of
one which astonished his hearers.
Some years ago." he said, II was
sleighing in the country and my way
lay across a frozen river. l knew the
ice was thin, but 1 was determined to
cross. The team scurried over the riv-
er under whip, and we were midway
between the shores when the ice sud
denly gave way and the sleigh, horses
and myself sank within a second to the
bottom. However, the speed of the
horses was so great that we were car
ried by the momentum safe upon the
other shore-a little wet, to be sure,
but not much the worse for that
The thin, silent man had listened
with great interest to the story.
1T is strange" he said, but the
same sort of an accident happened to
me. The issue, however, was more
tragic"
The big man squinted at the speaker
And what was the issue?" he asked
suspiciously.
well, l was drowned" said the thin
man. seriously.

Not long ago certain farmer closed
footpath across one of his fields, says
Tit-Bits. This was resented by the
inhabitants of the district who claim
ed that right of way existed. Event
ually the matter came before the
courts, and a decision was given in
favor of the farmer.
AS the public still persisted in cross
ing the field, however, the owner turn
ed a furious bull into it. After one
or two daring spirits had been assisted
out of the field over a hedge a depu-
tation waited on the farmer and asked
him, as a special favor, to withdraw
the bull and allow the use of the path
This the farmer might have done
had not one of the deputation I'M
fortunately remarked as he was leav-
ing:
You know there is a right of way?"
ooh, is there?" blurted out the farm
er, with his old obstinacy. i've heard
that before, an I didn't believe it, The
judge heard it, an he didn't believe It,
Now, chaps, you'll have to go to the
fountain head an argy with the bullI
If he believes it, all well and good
If he don't, he'll tell you so.'

GoRMAN,s CANDIDACY.

Until within the last few days SEN
ator Germans followers In Maryland
have not admitted that he was a can
didate for the Democratic nomination
for President. 1t has been the inn
preston. however, for some time that
he was preparing the way for entering
the contest for the nomination. AS
late as the occasion of his departure
for Europe the leading Democratic
paper of Maryland said that he did not
seek the nomination, that he would
rather be the power behind the throne
than 20 be the President. II is evil
dent now that that paper was not web
informed.
Both of the candidates for the Dem
Maryland are strong supporters Of
Senator German, having been with
him in many hard fought political bat
ties. In the campaign which they are
making they are quietly doing all they
can 10 allay any opposition there may
party in the state.
OF course 1t is of the utmost impor-
tance to him if he is a candidate fot
the nomination, that he shall be able
to show that his own state is behind
him. Therefore no efforts will be
spared by the Democrats to win the
election next fall.
And the prospect that they will be
successful is very good The Repubn-
cans are divided, Senator McComas
leading one faction and Senator We'll
Iington and Representative Mudd the
other II is the understanding that
among the Republican leaders there is
despair of carrying the state for their
ticket.
We do not know what the sentiment
among Democrats of the North is re-
specting Senator Germans candidacy,
but there is no doubt about his popu-
larity in the South And he is be
coming stronger all the time. The more
he is discussed from the standpoint OF
a candidate the more popular he be-
comes.
He will leave Europe for this coun-
Il y OiA duBs ~ anu VIII DC III
land in time to take a leading part in
the Democratic State Convention.
Doubtless he will write the platform,
putting into it such things as he thinks
the national platform next year should
contain. IL would not be surprising
if it should be constructed with the
view to as great an extent as possible,
of bringing the two wings of the party
together. 1t ought not to be such a
difficult thing to harmonic the party.
The two wings are not very far apart,
except on the silver issue, and that is
practically dead. 1t may be that by
means of his tact and good Judgment
in dealing with such matters he will
succeed in bringing them together. In
that event he would stand the best
chance for being the party's leader in
1904 And he would deserve the lead
ershiD.

CARDINAL GIBBONS, CHANCE.

There is a great deal of speculation
as to Cardinal Gibbons chances for
succeeding Pope Leo. There is moth
ing but speculation OF course. since
it is not possible to know anything
definitely about the matter. In our
dispatches yesterday there was a
statement from the Rome correspond
ent of the London Daily Telegraph.
that he is authorized on the authority
of two cardinals. one of whom is can
didate, to say that neither Cardinal
Gibbons nor any other foreign member
OF the Sacred College has the remotest
chance OF succeeding Pope Leo"
An avowed candidate could make a
statement of that kind with entire
sincerity because of the known SEN
timent in the Sacred College against
electing a foreigner, and it might be
made also with the hope of turning
attention away from Cardinal Glib
bons.
1t is evident that there is going to be
great deal of wire pulling in con-
nection with the election, though the
election may not occur nearly so soon
as 1t was thought it would a day or
two ago. A Rome dispatch of Satur-
day to the New York Herald quotes
a Vatican prelate as saying that no
other cardinal has a better chance
than Cardinal Gibbons. He represents
more Catholics than any other. the
number in the United States, the
philippines and Puerto Rico being
about thirty millions Each of the an
nounced andidates-Cardinal Vannu-
tell, Cardinal Rampolla, Cardinal Got
Il, and Cardinal Oreglia-either has
an announced policy or is bound nm
with some interest to which there is
opposition. Cardinal Gibbons stands
alone and is free from all intrigue
That may be a source of great
strength when the time comes for
choosing a successor to Pope Leo. The
Italia, an influential publication in
Rome, commenting on the departure
of Cardinal Gibbons from the United
States for Rome says: "Perhaps be-
cause he is alone, Cardinal Gibbons
viii represent a moral force of the
first rank. He is the only cardinal
absolutely free and Independent of all
the petty intrigues and Vaccinations
which to some extent precede a con-
clave"
There is no doubt of course that the
chance that Cardinal Gibbons has for
being chosen successor to the Pontif-
cate is very slight, but circumstances
may arise that will make it neces-
sary to elect him.

They Became Acquainted.

The red-faced man was comfortably
seated in front of the Clarendon Ho-
tel with his feet high upon one of the
pillars supporting the balcony, when a
friend came by and accosted him, says
the Memphis Scimitar.
The red-nosed man looked dubious,
but the friend pulled a chair near and
sat down for a talk, which lasted about
half an hour. After the talk was end
ed and the friend about ready to go,
the red-nosed man decided to take the
bull by the horns. He said:
well, now, pardon me- but your
name has slipped my memory"
why, that is the very thing I was

Music and mosquitoes in combination
now form a subject of animated dis
cussion in Boston. Some days ago
somebody discovered that a certain
musical note would kill the larva Of
the insects and even the young in
sects themselves. 1t was suggested
that the night air in the neighborhood
Of mosquito marshes needed only to
be made vibrant with that certain note
to kill out the whole pestiferous brood.
Now somebody else has found that the
common note of the mosquito family
is high ID. and that If that note be
sounded by a corpetaor any other in
strument, every mosquito within range
of the sound will hustle Immediately to
the point from which it comes. High
D is a sort of war call to them. as it
were. A veraeious Boston newspaper
says a young man went out with a
cornet and blew the mosquito call. In
one minute his hair and whiskers were
black with the insects, and in two min
utes so many mosquitoes had found
their way into the bell of the cornet
that he had to scrape them out with
a screw driver. The new plan for
mosquito determination, in Boston, is
for a band of high d players TO call
up all of the mosquitoes, when they
can be caught in bags and beaten to
death with clubs.
