idly, what letters of the alphabet amt
any letters at all?"
The Wise Guy began to tumble. The
rest were practically helpless. The timid
one became so anxious he couldn't
await developments.
PAPERS," lie fairly shouted in
his anxiety.
This was received by the group in a
manner to restore courage to the Wise
Guy, and he was about to say something
else when the LATEST carrier in the lot
came slowly to the surface.
Say" he drawled. what letters of
the alphabet would you rather deliver
on a hot summer day with four flights
of stairs to climb and no sign of cold
wave in three weeks?'
This was poser. In their minds they
had vague idea of what they would
like best, but they couldn't put the idea
into the shape of an answer. The Wise Guy
was hopping his brow. He had started
the thing and felt his responsibility.
Give us the kind we like" begged
the rest, to relieve the strain.
Well" responded the lazy one, Il
guess they are N and o and N and E.
Amt they about the kind you'd rather
tote under them circumstances"
A riotous demonstration of approval
would have occurred at this stage, but
fortunately the gong sounded and the
carriers scattered to their tables and got
busy earning their salaries.

the almost miraculous effect of the latest scientific
= treatment upon the hair and scalp
Mrs- Agnes Erbar. 1886 Mathney Avenue, Spring
field. Ill.,. whose two photographs appear above has
given solemn testimony her signature the
fact and numerous witnesses have noticed that her
hair has at least four and half feet long after
using oftreatment of the great Foso Hair
Remedies.
To the discoverer all heads are alike There
are none which cannot be cured by this re-
markabe remedy. The record of the cures
already made is truly marvellous and were it
not for the high standing of the great discov-
erer and the convincing testimony of thousands
of citizens all over the country it would seem
too miraculous to be true.
There is no doubt of the discoveries earnest
ness in making his claims, nor can his cures be
disputed. He does not ask any man, woman
or child to take his or anyone else's word for
it, but he stands ready and willing to send free
trial packages of this great hair restorative to
anyone who writes to him for it. In a single
night it has stopped falling hair and started
hair to growing on heads bald for years. Old
men and young men, women and children all
have profted by the free use of this great new
discovery. If you are bald, if your hair is fall
ing out, or if your hair, eyebrows or eyeashes
are thin or short if your hair is faded or gray
it will quickly restore it to it's natural color.

The YEARBOOK"
For Deaf People
By George III. Wilson

Wouldn't you want that man to tell
you just how he got back his full Hear
ing after twenty years of Deafness?
Wouldn't you want to know some of
the things he found out about the Ear.
and about Deafness, in fifteen years
study of both. and of his own casel
Well.-that is just what George H.
Wilson of Louisville, KY, tells in his 200
page Ear Book"
Mr.. Wilson is almost as we'll known
in Louisville as Marshall Field is in
Chicago, or John Wanamaker in Phila-
delphia.
And, he was, for twenty years, almost
the Deafest man in his native city.
Any one of the thousands who know
him today will certify that his Hearing
is now as sharp as their own.
Few men have studied the Ear so
earnestly, and thoroughly, as Mr.. Wilson
had to do, for his own sake.
What he. positively knows about
Deafness is personal and practical.
1t is not mere book knowledge, but
the actual facts tested out by his own
hard experience.
"The Wilson Ear Book" therefore
should be read by every man or woman,
who has Ear trouble,-who is Deaf, or
threatened with Deafness.
This Ear Book" will be sent Free to
any Doctor. or other person, who will
clip out this advertisement and send us,
with it, the name and address of one
Deaf person in his locality. Address

Mrs. Struggles nodded solemn assur-

"Of course" assented Struggles re-

-but-well, don't see how | can

Struggles face had grown graver and
graver, until, as his wife desperately
named the awful amount, it was posi-
lively funereal. That's a good deal of
money, my DEAR" he objected hopelessly,
especially just now Can't you pos
sibly drop some off your list, or cut it
down in some way?"
Mrs. Struggles shook her head mourn

Hum-m, considered Struggles Woe

Now, how much is it"
Mrs. Struggles lips and fingers moved
spontaneously as she murmured a rapid
mental calculation, in which her husband
with ever-increasing expectation noted
that a number of different amounts

PIGEON COURTSHIP.
Ii Sometimes Leads to Battles Tha
Result In Death.

Ii Sometimes Leads to Battles That
Result In Death.
On south Jersey farm, which was
the home of thousand pigeons and
which was conducted by woman who
had formerly been d bookkeeper in
Philadelphia, was found one particular
fly and coop which was the abiding
pIa ce of young doves that had reached
tine mating season. Purposely these
young birds were associated together
so that they might select their life COM
panions.
The interior of the walls of the coop
were filed with boxes, and those
pigeons which had mated would select
one of these boxes for their home and
nest.
This period of courtship is one filed
with excitement for the birds. Two
young pigeon cocks, having selected the
same hen for a mate, have been known
to fight to the death i'll their rivalry.
The method of combat is peculiar. The
beak and wings alone are used, the
combatants catching each other with
their beaks by the skin Of the head and
beating each other with their strong
wings.
Having once chosen his mate, the
dove, with an occasional exception, re-
mains constant to her through life. The
occasional instances of infidelity cause
discord in the coop, for when one
pigeon tires of his mate and seeks an
other he meets a vigorous protest from
the companion of the bird which he
covets. When they have agreed to
spend their lives together Mr.. and Mrs.
Dove select box and the laying be-
gins. The parent birds may then be
less than eight months old.-Era Mag

BONE STRUCTURE.
The Compact and the SpOngy Kind
and Their Strength.

The Compact and the SpOngy Kind
and Their Strength.
Bone is of two kinds, compact and
spongy. AS the result of careful ex-
periments it has been shown that COM
pact bone is twice as strong as oak,
considered simply as building mate
rial. In the shaft of a long bone it is
in reality much stronger than this, for
it is arranged on the advantageous
principle of the hollow pillar, which
gives the fullest resisting power with
the least possible expenditure of sub
stance.
The delicate layers and bars Of
spongy bone are arranged on the prin-
ciple of an arch. enabling very consid-
cradle pressures to be resisted. 1t was
found that cubic inch of this tissue
taken from the lower end of the thigh
bone and weighing only fifty-four
grains was quite uninjured by dead
weight of AIS pounds.
The curved bones which roof in the
skull are constructed to resist great
pressure, while they check the trans
mission of shocks to the brain. Az
ranged in the form of Il dome. they
consist of compact bones, with a
spongy layer between. These are
known as tables of the skull. The
outer and inner tables are immensely
strong, while the middle table serves
as buffer by which the force of blows
is distributed.

They went back toward the town,
oblivious of the two in tie shadow of
the boat.
Isabel rose quickly and looked out
over the tumultuous waste of waters.
A fiuctuant color was hot in her cheek.
Her eyes We're full of u brooding bril-

them before.

He nodded, misunderstanding her
emotion. IF what he said is true,

She fiared out on him then. He
would wait. He was not fit to brush
the shoes of that other man whom he
tiouted! That other man whom she
honored-whom she loved! She spoke
in no uncertain terms. He quivered
with the merited sting of her disdain.
But he understood at last. And when
she had flung away from him and was
walking rapidly back alone he follow
ed and caught up with her. ,.
''Tll go away tonight. Forgive me II
you can. See, the mist is clearing off,"
The silvery veil was rolling up like
u scroll from the tossing, peevish bill
lows, and the sun was shining forth
dazzling, resplendent.
1.-The mist has quite cleared," she
said. And then lower, THANK 1God!'
That night Robert Graeme, marvel
ing at her greater gentleness of words,
the new tenderness of her smile, thrill
ed to think that perhaps his one wild
dream was coming true after all and
that he might win the love he SO
craved.

a beautiful world. l am finding out

He bowed his head over her hand
that she might not see the rapture in
his eyes. And both found the silence
sweet. -
