army of maids. The slow trip over the
wild, desolate route in Siberia seemed to
pass only too quickly.
One entire car was stocked with
champagne and so great was the demand
that 1t was exhausted before the end
of the journey.
Arriving at headquarters the royal
party and Its girl attendants created a
sensation. Kuropatkin was shocked.
He did not say anything for time, how
ever, and night after night there were
orgies in the camp.
Word came to Boris that a small army
of Geisha women were travelling not far
from the Japanese army.
we will introduce them to Russian
cigarettes" said Boris, and he proposed
an expedition to capture the pretty Jap
anese women. All the officers present
agreed to take part in it, but the next
morning 1t was forgotten.
Another brilliant thought occurred to
the champagne-muddled Boris. At one
of his dinners he arose and proposed
this toast:
ITO the devil with the God of War.
Let US drink three bumpers TO the God

They We're drunk with cheer. And it

event at the Moore house. which re-
called old tragedies and emphasized a
most unhappy family tradition"
The coroner paused moment to let
these words sink Into the ears Of the
Jury, then plunged Immediately into
what might be called the offensive part
Of his examination.
"Why, II your wife's death caused
you such intense grief, did you appear

that her very features are still strange
to me. You must acknowledge that a
person Of such marked inexperience
can hardly be thought to know me or
to interpret rightly the feelings Of my
heart by any passing look she may
have surprised upon my face"
This attitude Of defiance SO suddenly
assumed had an effect he little realized.
Miss futile stirred for the first time
behind her veil, and Uncle David, from
looking bored, became suddenly quite
attentive. These two but mirrored the
feelings Of the general crowd, and mine
especially.

But, no man lifting voice from that
gravely attentive body, the coroner
proceeded to inquire II Mr.. jeffrey felt
like volunteering any explanations on
this head. Receiving no answer from
him either, he dropped the suggestive

been president since his elevation to
that office We are not aware that for
any brief moment. the reins of govern
ment have passed to any one else. And
the American people like for president
a man who is the president. and they
are going to show their appreciation OF
Theodore Roosevelt by making him the
president for four more years after his
present term expires. - Springfield

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
PEELED the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however,
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifes the blood
and makes you feel buoyant and
vigorous. You can get DR.

would be fewer repair shops

bought a simple engine, one that

disease for anyone to attempt to
doctor himself, although he may
have the proper remedies at hand.
A physician should always be call

however, that pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an at

they enter it Now and then both OF
the latter species manage to cross wa
terways when they are driven TO ex'
