"A friend Of mine had Japanese boy
of the upper class as her butler once.
Nothing could have been more respect
full than his demeanor while working
for her. Finally he left her service,
and what was her surprise when short

Question of Numbers.

Senator Hawley says that DR.. ]. II.
Twitchell of Hartford, a close friend
of Mark Twain, used to come in for d
god bit of raillery in that town because
of his large and ever increasing fam
lily. So accustomed had the people of
Hartford become to the constant addi-
tions to the doctors family that the
arrival of one or two more scarcely
served to cause a ripple of interest.
One morning William II. Crane, the
actor, visited Mark Twain's home. as
was his custom when in Hartford, TO
spend an hour or two with the humor-
list. In the course of their conversation
Twain CHANGED to remark that he had
that morning promised to act as god
father to the latest Twitchell infant,
born that morning.
Il dropped in to congratulate the
proud parent" said Twain in his inim-
table drawl. "and before l could es-
cape / had been led into a sponsorship
How many children has the doctor
now?" innocently asked Crane.
Really. I can't say, Billy" respond
ed Mark 81 haven't been over to his
house since nine this morning"

formation about theircondition, symptoms,
etc, and received In return good medical
advice whtch cost them nothing. Write to
Or. r. V. Pierce, founder of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.
DR.. Pierce by no means confines himself
to prescribing his weil-known medicines.
He tells you in the most common.sense
way what ails you, what you ought to do,
what line of treatment should be followed
out in your particular case, and if your case
does not indicate the need for this proprie-

frankly I1hdt yoD do need, and the best
possible method of improving your health.
DR.. Pierce treats many chronic cases at a
distance, through the mail and all you have
to do Is to write him your symptoms.

MURAD DIES.
Demise Of Former Sultan at Constan-
tinople.

Constantinople, Aug 30.-Sultan Murad
v. died. Tuesday of diabetes. from which
ne had long suffered.
The remains of former Sultan Murad
v. were inferred. Tuesday. in the fenid-
mi mauSOleum at StambOul, Wnere MS
mother is buried.
1t was reported in May last from Wen
ma that Murad ", the 33d sovereign OF
the house Of Osman, was dying and that
his adherents all over Turkey, known as
and only awaiting the signal to rise in in
surrectiOn.
Murad v. was born in 1910 and assembled
the throne after the murder of Sultan Alb
dull AziZ May, 1876. In July of that year
Murnd was placed under the regency of
his brother. the present sultan. Abdul
Hamid H.. and on Aug 81 he was de-
throned. Outwardly this act was perform
ed legally by the council of ministers on
the ground that he was insane. The real
facts in the case. however. will probably
never he known; but 1t has been claimed
that Murad was a good deal more sane
than his brother. and one of the greatest
terrors OF Abdul Hamid's existence was
the fear that this Turkish man with the
iron mask" as he has been termed. might
escape from his place of confinement in
the Cheragan palace. Some six years ago
he was removed to the Malta kiosk in
Abdul Mamid. which is surrounded by
lofty walls. where he has since been con-
fined
The Young Turk party has persistently
claimed that Murad was sane ard that
he was kept in confinement only to pre-
vent his recovering possession of the
throne. No European specialists have
seen Murad since 1876. and since his own
mother who was allowed to share his
captivity. died some years ago none could
say with any degree Of certainty whether
he was really still in the land of the
living.
