Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for tnc
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polishct
and put back. or they may be removed
entirely: bones are spliced; pipes
take the place OF diseased sections
OF veins: antiseptic dressings are ap-
piled to wounds, bruises, burns. and
like injuries before Inflammation sets
in. which causes them to heal with
out maturation and in one-third the
time required by the old treatment.
Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an antiseptlc
and when applied to such injuries,
causes them to heal very quickly. 1t
also allays the pain and soreness.
Keep bottle of Pain Balm in your
home and it will save you time and
money. not to mention the inconven-
renee and suffering which such injur-
les entail. For sale by Smiths Drug

It Certainly Was Odd.

Rochester Herald.
The duke of Roxburghe has in his
castle at Kelso number OF fine fam
lily portraits.
Some of the rooms at Kelso are
thrown open to the public on certain
days. The duke sometimes tells Of a
remark that he once heard stranger
make while looking through these
rooms.
The stranger had halted beneath
two paintings that hung side by side.
They were portraits of the third duke
and his son, but the father had been
painted in his childhood, the son in
his old age.
It was this that perplexed the
stranger. He studied the portrait a
long time. Then he said:
"Is it possible that this gentleman
was an old man when his father was
born?"

MOCHA COFFEE.
Most Of it Taken By the Sheiks and
Governors Of Arabia.

New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Il don't believe there is a pound OF
genuine Mocha coffee on this contl-
nent," a coffee merchant informs me,
"or that 200 people in the country
have ever tasted it unless they have
at some time visited Arabia and
drunk it at the table OF some sheik
or governor.
The true Mocha is the finest cof-
fee grown. 1t has delicious favor
that makes it as superior to the very
best of other brands as silk is super
ior to cotton, but the crop is extreme
" limited and hardly ever more than
satisfies purely local demands. Some
Arabian coffee may find its way to
this country. 1t may even be called
Mocha. but it is not the real article,
l am sure, and none OF US have ever
had it here, though we do get the best
OF other brands that are grown in
Ceylon and Java. and that means
some mighty fine coffee. 1t is not
Mocha, however, for the whole of the
Mocha crop each year wouldn't
supply the coffee demands of one
ward in St. Louis alone for period
of six months. The best and plump
est berries of the Mocha growth,
those with the most exquisite flavor,
are eagerly taken by the governors
and sheiks in the vicinity, and they
have to get their orders in advance,
so that they may be sure Of the an
nual supply. The second grade ber-
ries go to the wealthier citizens, not
to. the governing class, and the third,
or poorest, grade berries, which are
not much superior to the best Java
coffee, are sold to the people, and the
demand invariably exceeds the sup
ply ten-fold.
"Sometimes a few pounds OF this
cheapest grade of Mocha find their
way to Constantinople, but it is very
very seldom, and I don't believe an
ounce of it has ever got any farther
west than that. We get the best COT
fee grown, apart from Mocha, but
the local conditions which prevail
where that coffee is raised prevent
us from obtaining any, and I hardly
think the real thing will ever be
found in our markets"

Polite Mans Humiliation

Never again." said a man who, ac-
cordine to the New York Press, likes
to be polite to women, "do board
a trolley car with nothing but the
exact fare in my pocket. After
standing my round in the buffet the
other evening I discovered that l

seat. Before we had gone four blocks
I arose to surrender my place 70 a

Never mind?' Not much she didn't.
She said I was too clumsy to be al
lowed to go about without a nurse,
and that I ought to make good the
dime.
"It cut to the raw, I'll tell you, to
tell that girl and the passengers
around her that I hadn't cent in
my clothes. 1 told her that if she
would give me her address I would
send it to her as a guarantee OF good
faith and proffered my card. She
looked at it, but did not take it:

rRINoUE, ORIGIN OF TENNIS
Popular Game Came from Ancient
Pastime Played by the Basque
Peasantry.

Popular among the Basque peasantry
10 an ancient game known as trinquet.
No one knows the origin of trinquet;
like all Basque customs, 1t can be traced
back and back till its history is lost in
. remote past Nearly every court in
the country bears the aspect Of extreme
age. The court at Bayonne is believed
to be 400 years old, and the one at ST..
Jean de Luz looks older than the one at
Bayonne. When Louis XIV, who was
married in st. Jean de Luz church, went
down to the little frontier town to meet
his Spanish bride he found the Basques
OF st. Jean de Luz theoretically play
ing their ancient game; and he took
the idea back with him to Paris. and
from 1t largely modified comes the game
Of tennis. Tennis and trinquet are very
similar, save that instead OF racquets

glove. is used for propelling the ball.
