OLD SORES
ROOTED IN THE BLOOD

Old Sores are the result of deeply
polluted, foul blood supply. The blood
is filled with poisons, aud as it finds an
outlet through the ulcer, the surround
ing parts become diseased and the sore
eats deeper into the tissues and flesh and
becomes permanent trouble.
Some years ago while at work, fell
over o truck and severely injured both
ofmy shins. My blood became poisoned
as result, and the doctor told me I
would have running sores for life, and
would be fatal. Under this discourage
ing report left OF their treatment and
were prompt and gratifying. 1t took
only o short while for the medicine to
entirely euro up the sores, and am not
dead as the doctors intimated would
be, neither have the sores ever broken
out again, and some twelve years have
elapsed since what have described oc-
curred. Having been 80 signally bene-
fted by its use I can heartily recon-
mend It as the one greet blood purifier.

Easter Day and Its Origin.

1t is probable that Easter received
it's name from the Saxon goddess Eas-
tire, whose festival was kept about the
same season each year as Easter.
In the ancient church the celebra-
ton of Easter lasted eight days, but
in later times it was limited to two or
three days. 1t used to be a. festival
of pleasure as well as a time for
generosity and the performing of good
deeds. Aims were given to the needy,
the sick were visited by the rich and
great and often slaves were freed
and poor unfortunates suffering i'm
prisonment liberated. Services were
held during the whole week preceding
Easter Sunday, on which day people
greeted each other with kisses, say
ing: HE is risen!" the response al
ways being: "He is risen, indeed" In
the Greek church this custom is still
observed.
The custom of exchanging eggs on
Easter-or during Holy Weeks a
very old one and symbolizes the resur-
rection or renewed life.
Easter day is always the first Sun
day after the 1ull moon which comes
upon or next after the 21st of March,
which date is the beginning of the
old church year.
If the full moon comes on Sunday,
Easter day falls on the Sunday follow
ing.

Tsingtau, Shantung Peninsula, Chi
ma, April ~. - Russian officers here
have received news that Vice Admiral
Rojestvensky's fleet on leaving Kam-

Admiral Nebogattoff' 8 detachment of

The Admin atty circle of st. Peters
burg are coming to accept the view
that there will be no great or general
action between the fleets of Russia and
Japan for some time. basing their be-
lief on strategic and tactical reasons,
which arise from the belief that the
Japanese commander in chief avoid an
open engagement until he has weaken
ed the Russian fleet by night attacks of
torpedo boats.
The admiralty scouts the reports that
engagements have already occurred.

Roosevelt a Great Reader.

President Roosevelt's love for the
woods and the plains is no greater
than his affection for books, writes
the Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune. In spite of the
busy life he leads and the regular
hours he keeps, it is safe to say that
few men of affairs in the republic read
more than the president, and fewer
yet extend their literary foraging over
wider range of subjects. In addition
to keeping up with the important
newspapers and magazines, which is
a task in Itself, the president is al
ways abreast of the times in fiction,
science, historical research and art.
Reading is to the president what rest
is to most men. When he is at his
home in Oyster Bay, at the White
House in Washington, or in his car
speeding over the rails to meet some
distant engagement, he is invariably
found with book in his hand when
not engaged in some more important
work. When he starts on a trip, be
it long or short, his car is always
stocked with volumes and magazines,
and just as soon as he disposes of his
correspondence or bows out the visit
ing local committeeman" who come
to pay their respects, he takes up the
book that lays open and continues to
race through it's pages. Aided by a
wonderfully retentive memory, the
president holds fast all that he reads,
and is ready, if the need arises, to re-
peat almost any thought expressed by
the author, years after his eye had
travelled with lightning speed over the
page. That the president is able to
cover SO much ground in literature is
due to his systematic sticktoitiveness.

Riches in Cotton Stalks.

A new source of wealth for resi-
dents of the Southern States has been
discovered. Some months ago M. w.
'Marsden. of Philadelphia, and Joseph
Vile, Of Kentucky, had a lot of cot
ton stalks shipped to Philadelphia to
have them analysed, to find If there
was something valuable in them. They
returned to Gonzales, Texas, recently
with samples Of what was found In
them and exhibited them to a meet
ing of citizens.
The stalks were found to contain
from So to $4 worth of sugar to tho
ton, to make fine samples Of paper
superior to wood pulp, two pieces OF
material resembling celluloid, smoke
less powder composition. alcohol and
a valuable fertilizer.
Mr.. Marsden thought that an acre
of average stalks would amount to
about three tons and that in the South
7O,OOO,O0O tons of stalks were going
to waste that were capable Of pro-
ducing that many hundred million dol
lars.
These gentlemen show their faith In
their investigations by offering to erect
a plant at Gonzales for the CONVEX
sion of the stalks into the various ar.
ticles shown at a cost Of $4,000, with
a possible increase to $250,OO0 IL the
citizens would take $4,000 preferred
stock. There is no such plant or in
dustry yet in operation.

Wealth of Timber in Russia.

The vast forest areas of Russia in
Europe, which cover nearly 500,000,O00
acres, or SO per cent of the entire area
of the country. are aptly termed wood
ed Russia" Few people who have not
travelled through this part of the coun-
try can form any idea of the couptry's
boundless wealths in timber. Houses
built of any other material are en-
tirely unknown outside of the great
cities and wood constitutes the prin-
cipal fuel. The forest belt in Siberia,
called the "Taiga," stretches in a d.
rect line from the Ural mountains to
the Pacific for 1000 miles and is in
many parts 500 miles broad. This is
all the property of the car.
