Bit of Westmoreland.

The Westmoreland hills are the re- mains of an infinitely older world giants decayed, but of great race and ancestry; they have the finish, the delicate or noble loveliness-one might almost say the manner-that comes of long and gentle companionship with those chief forces that make for nat ural beauty-with air anu water with temperate suns and too abundant rains. Beside them the Alps are in human; the Apennines, mere forest grown heaps-mountains in the mak- ing; while all that Scotland gains from the easy enveloping glory of it's heath CT, Westmoreland, which is almost heatherless. must owe to an in6nitude of fine strokes, tints. curves and group ings, to touches of magic and to lines of grace, yet never losing the wild energy of precipice and rock that be- longs of right to mountain world Century

CABLES HARD TO MAINTAIN
Six Lines Damaged by Typhocn Which Lately Swept the
 China Sea.

The difficulty attending the efficient maintenance of the network of sub- marine telegraph cables, by which in- telligence is flashed to the. uttermost ensd of the earth, is illustrated by the reports of the newspapers that no few CT than six of these cables were dam aged by the typhoon which recently ragged over the east coast of China
 The various cable companies are, of course, prepared for contingencies of this kind, and a fleet of some 46 spe- cially constructed vessels are con- stantly employed in laying and repair ing cables in different parts of the world
 The magnitude of these operations may be realized when it is said that the length of the cable lying along the the bed of the ocean is something like 225 900 miles. Of these considerably more than one-half are British, while British messages number 100000, 900 words per annum. The cables lie at various depths. the greatest known depth of the ocean being 5.6S miles in the North Paicfic
 Our cables are tested every week" said an official of the Eastern Tele graph company, to a London newspaper man, land when fault is detected repairing is sent to the spot. These ships are stationed at various Centers, such as Gibraltar, Alden, Singapore, and the west and east coasts of Africa, and there is always a re- serve stock of cables kept in tanks at certain stations.
 ''In shallow water the cables are Sometimes fouled by the anchors of ships, and at the mouths of large rivers there is sometimes trouble when trunks of trees and other ob- jects are swept into the sea and forced by the strong currents against the cables. Then there are boring in sects like the teredo, which bores it's way between the strands of iron wire twisted round the core of the cable, but in our newer cables we have pro- vided against the depredations' of the teredo by sheathing of brass coiled around the cable like ribbon"

NO CARE" FOR COUNTY.
National Spirit of Jap and Russ in Marked Contrast the World
 Over

In an old corner of Boston where many races mingle polite little Jap anese artist has his studio, and paints lamp-shades and screens for his mer- chant fellow countrymen. On the Monday of Admiral Togos victory, re- lates Youths Companion, he was ex- citedly discussing the event with an American customer when the door opened and redbearded Russian peddler entered with bulging satchel

 "No! No! No!" cried the Jap" ex- cietdly You go out. You go out buy nothing to-day Togo-he whip take all-capture Russian-I make no trade with you"

 "Yes, I make fight with you" agreed the Jap; but before he could do so the Russian had already burst into ge- nial laugh.
 "Poof!" he said, making great sound Russia! What care I?1 Rus sia! not care anything. come away. In America I have gladness that Russia is capture" He held out his pack toward the Jap ingratiatingly. ''Now you make trade with me? Yes?"
 The Jap glared at him scornfully, then turned to the American with a Geprecatory gesture.
 Such we fght!" he exclaimed. "No good at all How can he be any good who has not care for his coun- try"
 Certainly no one has accused the is- flanders of lacking that care--but it may be that for a better country. or, rather, better government, Ivan, too. might have developed patriotism.

THE JEWISH PHYSICIAN.
Members of the Medical Profession in History Who Belonged to
 That Race,

An interesting survey Of Jews as members of our profession is to be ob- tained from little work entitled "Judische Aerzte und ihr Einhuss auf das Judentum," which, says the Med ical Record, has been issued by Dr. Simon Scherbel. One of the most prominent of the earlier personages mentioned is Chasdai who became a minister under the Calf Abdul-Rah- man III., and did much to establish the position of the Jews among the Moslems in Spain during the tenth cen tury, as we'll as to foster the study of the Talmud in that country. JehudA Halevi. who lived 100 years later, was a busy physician who was also the author of distinguished practical and philosophical works The great Maimonides of Cordova is included among the list of physicians by the author, who says that he created what is almost a new Talmud, and alleges that Richard Occur de Leon wished to make him his court physician, in spite oT the edicts of Popes Eugenius, Mich olas and Calixtus that Christians should not employ Jewish physicians.
 In Spain many years before they were practically the only practitioners of medicine. Somewhat later Pope Alex ander VI had as personal physician I Jew, Bonet de Lates, who subsequently, became attached to the court of Louis K The edict against Jewish physi- clans was finally raised by Sixtus ", largely at the instigation of two then celebrated physicians, David de Pomls and Ella Montalto la the latter part of the eighteenth century Mendels- sohns efforts in behalf of his com ratriots were ably seconded by his friend, the physician Marcus Herz, who contributed much toward the elevation of the Jews in Germany, In still more recent time Ascher, Steinheim, Erter and Johann Jacoby have been prominent, and the author closes his enumeration with the widely known names of Strassmann, Neumann Baginsky and Senator.

COLLEGE GIRLS CROW FAT
Soon After Entering the "Freshies" They Begin to Acquire
 Plumpness.

''Tn couple of months from now" said a woman who was matron at q women's college for several years, there will be flood of letters from girl freshmen to their mothers. all containing one complaint: I'm grow ing So fat that my clothes won'tt fit me. And the mothers will worry and fret, and wardrobes will be sent home to be let out
 Freshmen at the women's college always grow very plump, and they astonish their friends and relatives when they go home on their first vaca- tion by the amount of flesh they have put on. And it is, all due, I believe, to the healthy, normal life that a girl leads at college.
 The food is always palatable, nour- ishing and of the best, and even the most finicky maiden learns to eat everything. I have seen girls who entered college with the idea that they could get nothing but the white meat of Chicken and lemon ice, contentedly eating fried veal and onions a few weeks later.
 And these meals are always served at a regular time, and with plenty of lively conversation to make them digest easily. Let me say right here, too, that the popular notion that col lege girls have midnight spreads of 1ndigestibles is wrong one. Such things belong to boarding school, but nnf tn uop,optc ooIIona
 Then there are regular hours for retiring. Lights must be out at ten o'clock, and that means eight hours of good, healthful sleep. The out door life also contributes to the plump ness of the girls.
 when they have to, and plenty of fresh ar makes them strong asd muscular. The gymnasium Is another factor It's purposes Is to develop girl physical ly, and each freshman is examined that she may get the exercise she most needs
 Under all thess conditions the freshmen rapidly grow plump and rosy and this plumpness they rarely lose during their college course. Even the thinnest girl finds she can wear decollete evening gown after she has heen at college three months, and the fat girls find their superfluous flesh turning into hard, firm muscle.
 And one thing more. College girls are always happy, and every woman grows fat when she is happy"

Highland Funerals.

A Scottish correspondent writes of funerals in the Highlands. There are no undertakers here. A carpenter makes the simple coffin, relatives and friends carry it, hip high. to it's last resting place, which is dug when the end of the journey is reached, and, having walked perhaps six miles to the chosen kirkyard. they take a re- freshment of sandwiches and whisky and walk home again. The rigorous absence of pomp is maintained, but there is Sae added establishment of pipe music.

D0nnellv and Hatfield Minstrels.

l
 It is always pleasure to an- nounce the coming of the Don- nelly and Hatfield Magnificent Minstrels which appear at the opera house Saturday, Nov. IS. Theatre-goers of this city have learned to rely upon the promis- es of the managers of this organ ization and people have come to realize that the Donnelly &sHat- field Minstrels are just a little better than the Donnelly & Hat field posters and the show, in fact, is just little greater !than the words that attempt to DOT tray the merits of the organiza- tion. It could not be otherwise under the personal direction of Al. c. Field.
 This show always affords gen. uine entertainment. The melody of it's popular songs have pre- ceded it into this city, for it's songs have been whistled throughout the country. These popular song hits are offered in the first part. It is said that the color schemesand the effects" of the latter surpass anything of the kind ever presented in min- strelsy. And it is claimed jssits good humor and melody run over at the side.
 Many feature acts are on the program. One of the entertain ing acts is the 'Darktown Cir cus," a burlesque upon the most popular of Americas amuse- ments, the circus. While one counts five the audiencesis intro duced to all the accessories and atmosphere that go to make a typical one ring circus. AThe en- tire company of forty people take part in this act. The scen- eryiis both gorgeous and realist- ic This act is relieved by the ..'Toledos, " impersonators of animals, reptiles and amphib- ious monsters. They give feats of contortion and acrobatic ability.
 Where the moonlight Falls" shows a miniature landscape with a full moon and rippling waters, where a company of dar- kies gather and do a series of dances. There is a monelogue by Tommy Donnelly and a mu- sical "fete'' by Crawford and Filming. The Tuscano Brothers, Roman axe manipulators, will make their first American ap- pearance with this company. These gentlemen balance. juggle and throw rude Roman axes. While Old Glory Waves" dis closes a series of spectacles rep- resenting the varied career of America in arms.
 The managers of this popular organization have made the vocal music of their splendid enter tainment one of it's chief feat ures. Some of the best black faced comedians in the business have joined their forces. 15-18 Have you seen one of the Grand Portfolios of the Penn Wyoming Copper Co.,? Elmo Riddell will send you one on re-

SOUNDS OF BATTLE.

How Modern Projectiles Affect the
Senses on Battlefield.
Only those who lie in the firing line
and hear the constant screech of the
shells as they cleave their terrible
way through the air above know the
true sounds of modern war. The
whip-like smack of the bursting
shells, the swish of the scattering bull
lets, are nothing to the hooking
screech of these damned messengers
of death as they pursue each other, as
if in competition to complete the aw-
full object of their hideous mission.
The whole welkin IS discordant with
their tumult; you feel the rush of mis-
placed air; splinters sing in your
ears; the earth is in constant tremble
with the violence of the discharge;
you feel it pulsate against your cheek,
pressed to the moi st mud of the para
pet, and then d bullet saps the life
blood of the comrade whose elbow has
touched yours day and night for forty
hours. There is limit to human en-
durance in these straits.-World's

Tho Importance that Attaches to tho Care
Of the Blood If One Wants Bright Eyes

The Importance that Attaches to the Care
of the Blood If One Wants Bright Eyes
and a Clear Complexion.
Every sensible woman naturally wishes
toappear attractive. She knows the value
Of bright eyes, delicate complexion and
lively spirits. She knows also that
good health is at the basis Of her charms,
and that good blood is the source of good
health.
Miss Mamie Conway has a complexion
which is the admiration Of all who know
her. Asked if she could make any sug-
gestions that would be helpful to others
less fortunate, she said:
my complexion would not have
pleased you, if you had seen it two years
ago. It was then about as bad as it
could be, aud it gave me a great deal of
dissatisfaction. If you want good
complexion you must take care of your
health, especially Of the condition of
your blood. My health was at that time
completely broken down. was nervous,
had frequent headaches, torpid liver
and a great deal Of pain in that region.
suffered also from indigestion. 1t was
clear that my blood was in bad condition,
for pinples broke out all over my face"
cit is hard to realize that, for there
isn't the slightest trace of such blem-
ishes now"
cit was unfortunately quite other
wise then, and a long time passed before
found anything that gave me any re-
lief I became very weak and istless.
The doctors medicine did me no good,
and took a number Of highly recon-
menaed tonics with no better result.
AS soon, however, as began to use DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People my
complexion cleared up, and after I had
taken two boxes there was not a sign of
q pimple left on my face. My cheeks
became rosy, gained flesh and have had
perfect health ever since"
Rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes are
merely signs of healthy blood. They have
