 MERCURY
 As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on pre- scriptions from reputable physi- clans, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufact- ured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, To- ledo, O., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mu- cous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in To- ledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co.
 Sold by Druggists. Price 75c. per bottle.

Plan to Feed Poor Pupils.
In view of the recent statement made
by Robert Hunter that 10000 school
children in New York city go to school
hungry, Miss Booth, head of the Sal
walton Army, suggested to Superin-
tendent Maxwell the establishment Of
centers where food could be provided
for those actually hungry. Without
waiting for red tape she has at once
established several breakfast centers
on the east side, to which many chill
dren are focking each. morning.
School Of journalism Deferred.
Joseph Pulitzer has decided not to
have the school of Journalism, for
which he has donated 100000 to
Columbia university, begin operations
until his death. Mr.. Pulitzer's reasons
are that he wishes the faculty Of the
school to be absolutely free
And that the school shall not suffer
from personal, political and profession
al prejudices, as it might 50 long as he
is living. Another reason is that time

SHOT THROUGH
AIR FROM BUOD
Sailors Rode Swapping Whip
BefsVeen eg'oje and
Sly.

In one of the recent storms which
swept the Atlantic coast the crew OF
nine men of the four masted schooner
Lizzie M. Brayton was taken ashore in
a breeches buoy just south of the
Stratford hotel Point Pleasant, n. }.
Never was an army blanket with a
dozen strong arms at the corners
more fearful Quicker" for raw re-
cruit in hazing than was this breeches
buoy
l. The Lizzie NJ. Brayton went aground
hard and fast, her keel in a wise of
sand, and with every sea she rolled to
the scuppers, and with every roll she
tossed the breeches buoy into series
of undulations that hurled the sailor
passenger first high into the air and
then deep into the sea.
The whole countryside was gathered
on shore to pull at the whipping line.
Before they had hauled the last of the
nine men to mainland from the plung-
ing ship two of the sailors had been
whipped out of the buoy as youth is
whipped from blanket and had to
swim for their lives in the icy water.
The schooner was coming in with a
cargo of coal from Lambert's point,
Norfolk, Va. Her captain figured she
must be ten miles off shore and with a
half mile of water underneath her keel
when there came bump that shook
the sleeping crew out of their hunks.
Before they got to the deck the good
ship was hard and fast aground and
the sails were dropped in jiffy before
the wind could carry away the sticks.
The night was thick with snow, and
the wind of the last two days had
kicked up such sea that it seemed
as if the schooner must go to pieces be-
fore the crew could get off.
Along shore the life savers patrol of
Sauan beach and Bayhead had seen
the red rocket, but they could no more
put out boat in the sea than the
schooner could launch one. The cap
tain told them through a megaphone
that his ship was keeling to every
wave.
'Can you hold out till morning?"
came back through the storm. 1t was
then 2 O'Clock. The captain said eyes,"
and the life savers stood by. For pre-
caution they shot line over the roll
ing ship, and hardy Jack tar went to
the foremost head and dashed it hard
and fast. If it came to the worst, this
line would carry many Of them at least
to shore.
Day dawned to find the crew coated
with ice and nearly paralyzed by the
cold.
"Heave the breaches line. mega
phoned the captain. The line dropped
over the rigging as the cannon doomed.
Then came the pulley tackle. Then
the breeches buoy itself was trolleyed
over, and the first sailor, not caring to
stop and think what might happen to
him on the dancing line buckled him
self into the breeches. With "Heave:
