MOTHERS FRUIT CAKE.
II Was . Big Ono, But the Express Charges Were q Little
 Bit Bigger.

The woman who was telling the story was the best gowned of all the women In the cafe. It seemed to amuse the company around her table and some at nearby seats couldn't help listening to II, relates the New York Sun.
 T never see piece of fruit or pound 4ake that don't think of my poor dear Another out in Kansas" she was saying.
 Did ever tell you about the cake she sent me? We'll, it was the first Christ mas l was in New York.
 From my chill little bedroom in rooming house half way up town used to write to her the rosiest letters of my progress and expectations. It used to cheer my gloomiest hours to see what lies could put down on paper for the qualification and comfort of the little old lady. One night when hadn't had any dinner, remember sending her a long letter about plans I was making to bring mx neEe aieteF east and give her the education she ought to have.
 few days before Christmas got letter in mothers own labored writing. She said she knew hankered for taste of the fruit cake we always had It home at Christmas time and she had made a whole big one for me and hac shipped 1t by express.
 "I promised myself that with one of mothers nourishing fruit cakes at hand ! would be able to sustain myself on the off days. and sat in expectancy next day when the bell rang and the maid came toiling up the two flights to tell me that there was package for me.
 ''The expressman climbed up with ~round parcel almost as big as wash tub. He held up the book for me to sign and remarked incidentally. charges are $G45 ma'am.' Mother had sent it collect, all the way from the lit- tie Kansas town.
 ssSix forty Live! The fruit cake was as far beyond my reach as Tiffany tiara. So the expressman bore it away while muttered something about dropping into his office with the money as soon as had been to the bank. Then wrote a. strictly private note to my little sis ter telling her to tear up any notice that might be sent to mother by the company telling her the parcel was un- delivered. I have an idea they have some such system. Haven't they?
 ssThen I sat down and wrote a fresh letter to mother telling her how much had enjoyed the cake, and describing all the fictitious persons who had shared 1t with me, and who sent their con- gratulations to her on her skill as cakemaker. I ran out and mailed the letter and went back and cried myself to sleep"
 ssAnd that was the end of the cake?" asked one of the women at the table.
 ssOh, mo-" continued the narrator. ssThree months later went to the auc- ton sale of unclaimed express packages and bid it in for 45 cents. Mothers fruit cake Is so wholesome and solid that 1t will keep for a year. If you'll all come up to the house now, each of you shall have small piece

BIG CIRCLE
ExcuraiOuiSts Will Tour
 Grett North Country

A special correspondent of the Seattle Post-Intelhgencer, writing from Dawson says:
 Seattle Juneau -Skagway Dawson Rampant art-Fairbanks-NOme-Seattle, such is the great circle excursion route of the North planned and alrea y adopted for the purpose of introducing Seattle ties and others to the great Northern Empire which has as it's hub the city of Seattle. Heretofore excursionists have stopped their summer jauntings in the North, as a rule, after seeing Juneau, Skagway, Glacier bay and Sitka Now the White Pass has made special inducements to carry excursion ists to Dawson, and the Northern Commercial company has made prep arations to take them the remainder Of the full length of the Yukon, thence out by way of St. Michael and Nome, and then back to Seattle by ocean. The trip will be one of the grandest in the world, and is designed more particularly to introduce capitalists aud others to this partially developed empire of uumeasured resources. The summers in the Yukon are free from heat and yet not cold, aud the never setting midnight sun makes the oppor- tunities for sightseeing unlimited"

The following is quoted from a late work on the diagnosis and treatment Of the diseases of the eye, by Edward Jackson, A. M.. NJ. D.:
 Ut ought to be universally recog. nized that eye strain is the common cause of headache. Aside from head ache produced from fever, toXemia and organic disease of the brain and its membranes, eye strain is almost invar- iably factor in the production of head ache. The headache of eye strain is not of any special character-it may be constant or intermittent, slight or severe, felt only on the use of the eyes, or felt after their use, continuous or re- curing irregularly CT at certain inter vals. It is aggravated by many other causes, such as hunger, exhaustion, eX- posture to heat or cold, or indigestion, or it may seem entirely independent Of other influences. In the majority ot cases eye strain is not the only ia-tor in the production of headache, but il may be the only factor of practical im- portance because it alone can be re- moved, and its removal will give relief. Such headaches are generally felt in the frontal, temporal or occipital re- gions."
 Read the above again, and remember that eye strain is relieved by glasses properly fitted. We are in everyway equipped for scientific testing the eyes and determining the right glasses, In every case absolute satisfaction is guar anteed. Prices are as reasonable as good work willjustify.
