Somewhere in the world life is at stake every minute Of the day. Right at our own doors, perhaps, is going on a struggle as grim and fierce as a1ly fight or flight on record.

What is Life?

In the last analysis nobody knows, but we do know that it is under strict law. Abuse that law even slightly, pain results. Irregular living means derange-
 ment of the organs, resulting in Constipation, Headache or Liver trouble. Dr. Kings New Life quickly re-adjusts this. It's gentle yet thorough. Only 25e. at Poynor < Morrows Drug Store.

Story'of the Ferris Wheel.

The great Propositions held during the last fifteen years have produced two marvellous exam ples of engineering and eonstruc- tive ability. One of these, the Eiffel Tower was designed by 8 Frenchman at Paris for the Exposition of 1889; the other, the Ferris Wheel, was designed and built by the late Geo. w. G. Fer ris for the Worlds Columbian Exposition at Chicago, in 1893.
 The problem of moving the Ferris Wheel from Chicago to St. Louis was stupendous 4,2O0 tons of material, including the 70-ton axel, besides engines, boilers and derricks and false work, had to be transferd. One hundred and seventy five freight cars were required to move this material. A brief resume of the dimensions and descriptions of the Ferris Wheel may be inter- esting. The Wheel is built upon the bicycle principle, with immense tension spokes, 2:15-16 in. diam. The wheel is 25O it. in diameter and stands 264 it. high. In reality it is two wheels sec-
 urely braced together. Between the outer rims of these wheels the eleven ton cars are suspended on 6 in. pins, 6 it. long. These cars are 13 it. wide. 26 1t. long, 9 it. high and will carry 60 persons each. There are 35 of them, so the total capacity of the wheel is 2,160 persons. At several times in it's history the wheel fas been filled to it's capacity. The axle of the wheel is 8 solid steel forg- ing. 32 in. in diameter and 45 it long. The solid bronze bearings upon which it rests are each 6 it. long and contain nearly two tons of metal. The weight of the wheel is carried upon two four post towers, 6 it. square on top and 40x50 it. at the base. These in turn rest upon solid concrete and steel beam pillars, which are carried down to solid rock, 26 it. below the surface of the ground.
 The towers ar e anchored to the bottom of this mass of concrete by 2x6 in. eyebars. so. that the Wheel is perfectly safe, even in the most violent storms. The side vibration of the Wheel in an 80 mile an hour wind is less than 1 inch. The wheel is run by double reversing engine with cylinders 30x48 in. capable of developing 2,0O0 horse power.
 The power is applied through series of cogs to g. sprocket chain which engages wide cogs on the outside of each rim. Two revo- lutions are given each passenger and the time required is from 20 to 30 minutes. The view during this half hour ride is most inter- esting and instructive. Gradu- ally. as the majestic and mighty wheel rolls one up higher 8 grand panorama unfolds itself to view. GA fifty million dollar Exposition in all it's grandeur is before you.

As a strong dramatic offering the beason will probably have nothing to kaual the performance of Blanche
 Walsh in Resurrection this evening kt Polls. It is play which has Eaused more argument and more div Fersity of opinion than anything pre- Tented in America in many years, which all goes to show that the sub- Iect of the play is sufficiently vital fo make the people talk and thsnk, Something that can be said for very lew dramatic offerings of recent ears. The critic of the New York Herald said in his interview: T Mould very much doubt if New York has ever before seen so heart-grip- b1ng a drama as Resurrection which
 would imply that, even though a serl- bus play, it must be intensely huma1l Rnd that 1t appeals quite as strongly to the emotions and feeling as 1t does 10 the intellect.

SALE or STOVES INCREASES
Wisconsin Man in the Hardware Busi- ness Declares the Field
 Is Growing.

Steam heated flats are by no means causing a decrease in the sale ot stoves" said stove salesman.
 ssThe stove business is steadily grow. ing, although in the larger cities the sales are not increasing as rapidly as they might were it not for steam and hot air heating The increase in popu. lation is such that more stoves neces sarily are sold every year, but were 1t not for steam heated flats the sales would be 25 per cent. heavier. Farm. CTS, however, are buying more hard coal stoves. The big coal strike caused a falling off in sales, but there was a rush of orders at the end of the year that more than compensated for the lull The increase in railroad facili. ties for transportation and the growing scarcity of wood, no less than the gen eral prosperity of the farming commu' mites, are responsible for this grow, ing demand for baseburners in these districts"

VANILLA s0DA WATER LEADS That Flavoring Is the Most Popular at All Fountains = Chocolate,
 Second; Strawberry, Third.

Year in and year out, vanilla iavoring is the standard at the soda fountains. Chocolate is second strawberry a bad third, and lemon is somewhere in the ruck among the also rans. It depends good deal upon the weather, but this is the normal preference, say the mix CTS of the soda fountains. The warmer the weather the sourer the flavors de- manded by the public. On a hot, muggy day, there is a great run on lime juice and phosphates of all fiavors. On just comfortably warm days, chocolate, strawberry and all the sweet f1avors are in demand. Ice cream soda is not liked so much as 1t was few years ago. Among the fancy soft drinks egg phos- phate is the favorite. Every year 8 few new "helath drinks" are sprung. Some rarely last more than a season. Some times, after rest of year or two, a health drink that has run it's course is put out again under another name
