Better Than Pills.

The question has been asked, I'm
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach
& Liver Tablets superior to pills1''
Our answer is: They are easier and
more pleasant to take, more mild and
gentle in effect and more reliable as
they can always be depended upon.
Then they cleanse and invigorate the
stomach and leave the bowels in a
natural condition, while pills are more
harsh in effect and their use Is often
followed BY constipation. For sale by
all dealers.

The author Of sport and Travel"
tells how he robbed an eagles nest In
Asia minor, or, rather. how he man
aged to get 1t robbed for him. The
nest was about w feet from the ground,
ON u perpendicular cliff i50 feet high.
He says:
twisted 800 feet OF half inch cord
into a strong rope OF less than half that
iength and also made a strong but light
rope lndder u of the ropes from the
pack saddles. ] then sent four men to
the top OF the cliff to let down the long
rope directly over the eagles nest.
The rope ladder was attached to the
end Of 1t and drawn over the open
space where the nest lay. This was
held in place by another rope tied to a
tree at the bottom of the cliff.
There was nOw no difficulty In ap-
preaching the nest and no danger SO
long as the rope held. although. of
course, the sensation of being dangled
at the end OF a long rope Is more or
less unpleasant until one gets accus-
toned to 1t. Musiapha reached the nest
without difficulty and brought down
the two eggs in a handkerchief held
between his teeth.
We watched the nest all day and
found that the mother eagle did not re-
turn. We had disturbed her on the
previous day. and SO she had evidently
deserted her home.

"Dress Carriages" Next.
Letter.

There is every indication OF an early re-
vival of the luxurious and costly dress car
rage which was such a conspicuous and
picturesque feature during the early DAYS
of Victoria's reign. At the present time
landaus and broughams are the vehicles
chiefly used by the nobility for state oc-
casions. but since King Edwards acces-
sion they have fallen into disfavor. The
King himself is known to have expressed
his dissatisfaction with the fact that the
somewhat sombre carriages which are
driven up to Buckingham Palace for the
drawing rooms are in many instances the
identical ones used in the daytime for shop
ping purposes. and his Majesty has quietly
intimated wish that dress carria yes
might come In vogue again for evening
court functions.
A dress carriage, it may be explained. Is

on C-springs and braces: at each OF the
top corners IL u coronet: a gaudy hammer

and the inside Is gorgeous with brocaded
silk. The cost? Well. II depends entirely
on the length Of the purse. You can paw

Thing About the Suburban Cottage

1t is a great enterprise and paying one
to build homes for the people, small cot
tages in the suburbs where the clerk on
$1,000 year and less can pay down 500
cash and then stagger along on the in
stallment plan till bled to death and the
grave. One of our more prosperous pro-
moters of this line of business gave me a
tip yesterday that looks like a solemn, gos-
pei truth. Said he: THE main thing in
building a cheap cottage in the outskirts
is to have what the women call a lovely
bathroom When we've got that the sale
is easy A cheap bathroom will never sell
a house; 1T will. on the contrary, spoil the
sale. The parlor may be common enough,
but that can be concealed with nice furni-
ture and tides and bric-a-brac and car
pets, pictures and coy corners, etc. The
dining room can be made attractive with
china closets, a buffet, plenty of chairs,
chafing dishes, fancy plaques and a hum
dred kinds of cheap or costly glassware.
The living rooms-any old thing. a bed
or two, a lounge, bureau, dressing case,
chiffonier, etc. But the bathroom must be
