MUST LIVE IN BATH TUB.
Man with Strange Disease Compelled to
Remain in Water.

A deer chase is the rarest disease
berg of Dayton, O., has been taken to
Boston, Mass. and is now in a private
hospital under the care of one Of the
leading specialists III skin diseases.
His bed is a bathtub so constructed
that a stream of water, heated to the
temperature of the body, flows into the
tub and out again at the other end,
thereby remaining constantly pure and
fresh. Air-flled rubber cushions float in
the tub to buoy the body and the neck
and feet rest on canvas straps.
A year ago Feinberg, who has an eX-
cellent university education, came to this
country from Koenigsberg, Germany,
the protege of wealthy uncle in Day
ton, who placed him with a jeWeler of
that city to learn the trade. Six weeks
ago q sudden rash broken out all over his
body and the local physicians were puz-
zled Then pimples appeared, which
spread from the soles of his feet to the
crown of his head, and bursting, devel-
oped into huge sores.
At the height of this development he
was taken to Boston and to the special
list, who pronounced the disease as penn
phigus, whose origin is shrOuded in mys-
terry. Some medical writer's ascribe it
to a nervous shock and others again to
some gastric disturbances, but all agree
that it is fatal Feinberg, who is only
20 years old, will receive every atten-
ton that money can procure, but will be
obliged to live in a bathtub for weeks to
come unless death ends his sufferings
earlier.

CHIMES RANG; NO GHOULS.
Only an Electrician Trying to Fix an
Organ.

Summer residents of Garden City, l..
l., We're enjoying their first nap the 9th
er night when they were suddenly
awakened by a violent ringing of the
cathedral chimes Men and women
scantily clad armed themselves and
streaked across lots to the cathedralfi as
1t was thought that an attempt was be-
ing made to steal the body of A. Il.
Stewart. Some years ago ghouls tried
to steal the body of Mr.. Stewart, and
when it was placed beside that of Mrs.
Stewart in the crypt of the cathedral
electrical connection was made between
the belfry and the crypt. Six feet of
solid masonry was placed upon the iron
and steel box within which are the cof-
fins of Mr.. and Mrs. Stewart. AS an
extra precaution electric wires were at
tached to the large chimes in the cathe-
dral tower, and these also were connect
ed in such manner with the slab ana
collins that in case ghouls attempted to
modest them an alarm at once would be
sounded. While the startled folks were
preparing for attack. the big doors
opened and out stepped Norman Gardi-
ner, an electrician, who some time ago
was requested by officers of the diocese
to electrically connect the chimes with
the big organ. Mr.. Gardiner is busy all
day and selected night for doing the
work. When he explained, the excited
populace was much relieved and went
back to bed.

GUST THE DEMON.
A TussIe with Coffee.

There is something fairly demonl-
wreaks it's fendish malice on those
who use il.
A lady writing from California says:
my husband and l, both lovers OF
coffee, suffered for some time from
very annoying form of nervousness, ac-
companied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some sort of al
lection of the nerves leading from the
spine to the head.
Il was unable to hold my head up
straight, the tension of the nerves
drew it to one side causing me the
most intense pain. We got no relief
from medicine, and were puzzled as 70
what caused the trouble, till a friend
suggested that possibly the coffee we
drank had something to do with it,
and advised that we quit it and try
Postum Coffee
I'VE followed his advice, and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve, and IN
very short time both of us were entire
~ relieved. The nerves became steady
once more, the headaches ceased, the
muscles in the back Of my neck relax
ed, my head Strengthened up and the
dreadful pain that had so punished me
while | used the old kind of coffee
vanished.
1--WE have never resumed the use of
the old coffee, but relish our Postum
every day as well as we did the former
beverage. And we are delighted to
find that we can give it freely to our
children also, something we never
dared to do with the old kind Of cot
fee" Name given by Postum Co., Bat.

Postum Coffee contains absolutely
no drugs of any kind, but relieves the
coffee drinker from the old drug poi
son.
There's a reason.

SEA BIRDS ARE DISAPPEARING.
Many Species Have Become Extinct and
Others Are Threatened

No one knows better than the sailor
or the shore hunter how the sea birds
may be eXterminated, and no one better
than the Indian or the trapper of the
deep woods how sometimes the widest
and most abundant land species may dis
appear. The wonderful great aux, or
garefowl has, within the memory of
men now living, been hunted from the
lace of the earth, so that it's skins and
eggs are now worth their weight in gold.
Practically the beautiful wild pigeon
Which once darkened the skies with its
vast and cloud-like flight, has met the
same fate, though small colonies of it
IN remote spots undoubtedly still exist.
The eastern pinnated grouse is also
practically extinct. In the Chatham is
lands alone. in the Pacific, seventeen
species of birds have become extinct.
On all the islands of the sea and at all
the shore spots to which sea birds resort
the work of slaughter is being carried
on quite relentlessly. Largely for purely
humane reasons and incidentally in the
interest of science the National Associa-
ton OF Audubon Societies is engaged in
the work Of trying to save the sea birds
from eXtermina ton. Several species are
oelng systematically destroyed for their
feathers. Fashion. of course, does not
care whether these beautiful creatures
are exterminated Or not The scarcer
they become up to the point Of their &C
tual disappearance the greater are the
prices realized for their feathers and the
deeper the JOY taken by the wearer of
the ornament. And when at last they
are all gone-why, there will be another
OF Gods creatures to put through the
same process.
This association has forty wardens
guarding some of the key colonies of
these sea birds. This may guarantee
them from total destruction at present,
but does not insure the maintenance of
the birds of the species in question in
such numbers as to render their pres
ervation sure. Instead of forty wardens
the society ought to have 3O0.-New
York Mail.

Deserter Blames Canteen.

Joseph A. Morse of Newport, K. l., a
deserter from the American navy,
gave himself up to the police at Peoria,
ILL.,, and asked to be sent back to New
port. He blames the adjustment Of the
army canteen as the cause of his deser-
ton. Morse said for weeks he had been
without a drink of beer while aboard his
ship, and when he reached shore he
FASTENED to the nearest saloon and drank
too much. When he found out he had
broken his shore leave he concluded not
to return.
'It was this way" he said. "When
we had the canteen we drank when we
felt like it and were not allowed to get
drunk. Since they abolished the can
teen aboard ship the sailors make for
the nearest saloon when they get to
shore, and. as l did. they drink toe
much. l did not keep faith with my
captain, and | did not want to face him.
l am tired of travelling and lodging the
officers, so l gave myself up"

value of the remaining sheets The
one disadvantage of most loose-leaf
ledgers is the impossibility of keeping
the leaves in q firm position, unless there
are a sufficient number at all times to
fill up the space between the covers. A
California man has invented a locking
bar that can be placed in lOOse-leaf ledg-
ers which will keep the sheets always in
a firm position. 1t consists of two bars
the length of the ledger, these bars be-
ing separated and kept apart by means
of small-shouldered notches attached to
the inner edges directly opposite to each
other. The notches on one bar overlie
the notches directly opposite. one being
movable in the other. Resting against
the ends of the inner notches are springs
which contract the space between the
two bars as much as the contents of the
ledger will allow, tending to fill up all
the vacant space remaining.

Priest Holds Up Trains.

With folded arms and look of def
ance ON his face, Father John Wins,
director for the United States of the
Society of the Holy Childhood, held up
all the trains on the Pennsylvania lines
at Pittsburg, Pa, by standing on the
tracks and defying the engineers to run
over him.
Archbishop Francis Albion Symon.
the Polish prelate. who had just arrived
there from New York city, was deliver
ing an address to an immense audience
in st. Stanislaus' Polish Catholic church
at the corner of Twenty-frst street and
the tracks. The trains on the railroad
dashed past the church doors every few
minutes and it was only with the great
est difficulty that the speaker could be
heard at all.
Finally Father John was seen to slip
from the church. Then passing of the
trains ceased and the prelate was able
to finish his address without Interrupt
ton

FEvER'S AFTER EFFECTS
DIG Not Disappear Until the Blood
Mas Renewed by Or. Williams
Pink Pills.

Typhoid fever is sometimes called ner
vous fever. During the course of the
fever the nerves are always profoundly
disturbed, and when it is over they are
left so sensitive that the patient has to
be guarded against all excitement. In the
tonic treatment then demanded, regard
must be paid not only to building up flesh
but also to strengthening the nerves.
remedy that will do both, make sound
flesh to repair waste and give new Vlgor
to feeble nerves, is the most convenient
and economical. Such remedy is DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
One proof of this the experience of
Mr.. Charles Worth, of East Vassalboro,
Maine. He says: 8" I had a severe at
tack of typhoid fever late i'll the fall
which left me very weak and debilitated.
My heart palpitated, my breathing be-
came difficult after the least exertion and
there was numbness in both hands. I
suffered in that way for fully six months.
AS | did not grow out of it, did not in
fact see the slightest improvement as
time passed, decided to use DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills as knew of some cures
they had effected in cases like mine.
almost as soon as I began taking
them | could see decided improvement
and after keeping on with them for
several weeks was completely well. I
consider DR.. Williams Pink Pills most
valuable remedy, and I am in the habit
of recommending them to others afflicted
as | was 3"
When the nerves ache and trem-
BILE it means that they are starving. The
only way to feed them is through the
blood, and the best food is DR. Williams
Pink Pills. They are absolutely guaran-
teed to be free from opiates or other harm
full drugs. They are sold by all drug
gists, or may be obtained directly from

Ancient Case to Be Heard.

An interesting French spoliation case
which has been in preparation for a
great many years for hearing will be-
gin in the probate court at Norwalk,
Conn, before Judge Henry w. Gregory,
when administrators of the estate of
next of kin will present their valid
claims for indemnity.
In 1899 the schooner Washington
sailed from Norwalk for a trading cruise
in the West Indies, and while en- the
high seas she was seized by the French
cruiser lie Ronominee and condemned
as prize at Bass Terre, Guadaloupe.
The schooner was built in Norwalk in
1893 and was owned in equal parts by
James Seiieck, Eliphalet Lockwood and
William Lockwood of this place.
1t has been decided that her seizure
and condemnation was illegal and the
heirs of the owners of the vessel and her
cargo have been granted redress.

Recovery Almost Miracle.

A remarkable case of the recovery of
the use of power of locomotion was that
when Ethel Vandersloot, daughter of
Edward f. Vandersloot of York, Pa,
who had not walked in twelve years,
said to her father:
Papa, 1 want to get up and walk, "
Strengthened up, raised her feet, and
proceeded to cross the room unaided.
For dozen years she had been an in
valid, and for the first time in six years
the girl ate dinner with her parents at
the table. The best physicians in
this city pronounced her case hopeless,
and the father has spent thousands of
dollars in the effort to effect a cure.
Mr.. Vandersloot says that he knows
of no other reason to which he might
ascribe her cure than that of the prayers
of friends Physicians have been unable
to diagnose her ailment.

Newfoundland Dog Tramps Miles.

Stub, a Newfoundland dog belonging
to @. II. Henning, of Omaha, Neb, left
with friends when the family went for Il
summer vacation, apparently has
tramped some 600 miles, from Omaha
to Superior, Wis, in an attempt to find
his master and mistress. The dog had
been missed from Omaha. and recently
the city clerk received a letter from
Thomas B. Mills OF Superior, saying a
dog bearing Omaha tag No. 400 had
been there several days. The tag served
to identify the dog. Stub was taken to
Superior last summer, and it is surmised
that when he found himself deserted this
year lie started for the resort.

RAIL FOR CAR SEATS.
A uch-Needed Addition That Would b
Appreciated,

Only in the past few years have the
electric railway companies adopted the
cars IN which the seats face in the direc-
ton the car is going. Wherever intro
duced they have proven popular in the
extreme, and are much superior to the
old-style seats. A small detail so far
overlooked is the provision of a suitable

landhold for the person getting up from

handhold for the person getting up from
the seat to leave the car, it generally
being necessary to grasp the top Of the
back Of the seat Immediately in front.
This seldom affords a sufficient hold, es-
pecially it person occupies the seat
ahead. A Missouri man has patented a
device designed to overcome this fault,
an illustration of which is shown here.
1t needs no explanation, the idea being
simply to provide rail. secured to the
top of the seat back, with subdivisions
at the ends, which serves as a handle.
Railroad cars would also be much i'm
