BLOOD WILL TELL,

Il takes lots of vitality, nervous force and
strength to win q race. Blood must be
pure and good.
Without good red blood a man has q
weak heart aud poor nerves. Thinness of
the blood, or anemia, is common in men
and young women, and all those who work
indoors, who do not get enough good OK
ygen in their lungs, consequently have too
many white blood corpuscles.
Keep the nerves nourished, the heart
strong, the head cool, the stomach vigorous,
the liver active with tonic which has
stood the test Of time and has wide repu-
tation, such ~ Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery.
Tonics consisting of large portions of
alcohol, iron or cod liver oil, do not bring
the desired changes In the blood because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood, with the excep-
ton of the alcohol, which shrivels up the
red blood corpuscles when it does come in
contact with them. Therefore do not allow

telling you he has something better than

BEGGARS' APPEALS.

How the Professionals Base Them
ON the Public's Emotions.
Never do panhandlers make the mis-
take of appealing to the reason. The
emotions of the crowd only are at
tackled. There is always a complete
human story in the pose. What, for in
stance, could be more compelling Of
sympathy than the spectacle Of the
bent old graybeard patiently and de-
spairingly as it seemed grinding a
wheezy old organ which he had tied
into broken down baby carriage? The
suggestiveness of that perambulator,
coupled with the walls Of that organ,
more forlorn than mortal child ever ut
tered, was 'orth dollars day to the
old fellow. 1t was reprehensible art,
of course. but art nevertheless. And
the artist grew rich, for when in
vesigated by the police he was found
to be the owner Of many houses in Ho'
boken.
Again, could there be anything more
likely to excite compassion than the
crust throwing trick? It was invent
ed by n German beggar named Lang,
whose French disciple, Lemaire, prac-
ticed it subsequently. I have seen a
crust thrower operating in Sixth ave-
nue. He was semi-well dressed man,
who walked swiftly down through the
crowds Of shoppers. Suddenly he ut
tered hoarse cry and darted out into
the roadway, where, pouncing upon a
crust of bread which he had thrown
there previously, he began gnawing 1t
ravenousIy. He did not wait for SYM
pathy. He walked rapidly away, but a
number Of women who saw the act
ran after him and crowded one another
for the privilege Of giving him money.

COUNTESS PoTocKA.
The Woman Who Sang to Chopin ~
He Sank to Death.

The Woman Who Sang to Chopin ~
He Sank to Death.
As the great Chopin lay dying his
soul was ushered out by the song of
the beautiful Countess Delphine Po-
tocka, who had been his dearest conf
dante and friend. The romance of their
friendship, one Of the sweetest in his
tory, is related by Gustav Kobbe in the
Delineator. The last tragic scene III the
life Of the composer has often been de-
scribed and has been painted by Bar
rios, but it Is so touching that one may
well read another version of 1t. Mr..
Kobbe writes:
.sThen came what is perhaps the
most touching scene that has been
handed down to us from the lives of
the great composers. When Delphine
entered what was soon to be the death
chamber Chopin's sister Louise and
few Of his most intimate friends were
gathered there. She took her place by
Louise. When the dying man opened
his eyes and saw her standing ut the
foot Of his bed, tall, slight, draped in
white. resembling a beautiful angel,
and mingling her tears with those of
Louise his lips moved, and those near
est him, bending over to catch his
words. heard him ask that she would
sing.
mastering her emotion by strong
effort Of the will, she sang in voice Of
bell-llke purity the canticle to the Vir-
gin attributed to Stradella-sang it SO
devoutly, so thereally, that the dying
man, artist and lover Of the beautiful
to the very last whispered in ecstasy:
How exquisite! Again, again!
"Once more she sang, this time
psalm by Marcello. 1t was the haunted
hour Of twilight. The dying day draped
the scene in its mysterious shadows.
Those at the bedside had sunk noise
lessly on their knees. Over the mourn
full accompaniment Of sobs floated the
voice of Delphine like a melody from
heaven"

"Pedigree" of "Fog."

II any Londoner crawling up to busi-
ness by train or tram through the fog
turned his idle mind to wondering why
1t was called "fog'' he would probably
decide that it could not have been call
ed anything else. Fog" is its obvious
name. Yet there is much speculation
among philologists on this point DR..
Murray's dictionary suggests an inter-
esting pedigree. AS far back as the
fourteenth century "fog" meant after
grass, the rank grass that sprang up
after hay harvest or grew in the win
ter, while in the north it meant moss.
Then "foggy" came to mean boggy.
Next it was used to mean bloated or
puffy of the flesh of men or animals,
and finally, as applied to ale or air, it
meant thick, and our modern fog was
derived back from this "foggy." skeat,
however, goes straight to the Danish
"fog," as in ''snee fog" snowstorm,
from "fyge," to drift. The worst Of
London fogs is that they do not drift
fast enough.-London Chronicle.

Conceit of the Rooster.

Were it not for the disgusting self
conceit Of the roosters one might en-
Joy a poultry show. The rooster is
near to natures heart. He has not
civilization enough to veneer his opin-
ions with common politeness and savoir
faire. and his disgusting exhibition Of
the art of being it offends good taste
and refinement. How the hen man
ages to put up with it is certainly one
Of the mysteries Of the coop. If six or
eight hens would join a hens club
modelled after Sorosis and throw the
rooster down good and hard once or
twice, he would soon discover that he
was not the only kernel on the cob.-
