There is a Difference.

The difference between Kenne-
dy's Laxative Honey and Tar and
all other cough syrups is that it
moves the bowels, thus expelling
a cold from the system. This re-
lakes the nerve tissues and by its
healing and soothing effect on the
throat and lungs the cough is re-
lieved-cured entirely. Kenne-
dy's is the original laxative honey
and tar. It contains no opiates

How To Ward Off Old Age.

The most successful way OF
warding off the approach of old
age is to maintain a vigorous di-
gestion. This can be done by eat
ing only food suited to your age
and occupation, and when any dis
order of the stomach appears take
a dose of Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets to correct it.
If you have a weak stomach or
are troubled with indigestion, you
will find these tablets to be just
what you need. For sale by Hill

HUMAN QUALITIES.
According to This Writer, Women
Are More Civilized Than Men.


Havelock Ellis in his study Of "the
most interesting beings in the world
namely, men and women-fOrmulates
the conclusions that there is hardly an
organ of tie body or quality of any
Kind that is not unlike in the sexes.
\ man is Il man even to his thumbs,
and a woman is a woman down to her
little toes. Let man, with his Wanted
superiority in everything, cultivate a
proper feeling Of his real standing in
Jew of Mr.. Ellis statement that wo-
men "are unquestionably superior in
general tactic sensibility and probably
;uneriOr in the discrimination Of
tastes" with Ito be perfectly impair

ries. read more rapidly, bear pain bet
or. recover better from wounds and

I'D age, live longer and have relatively

words, are more civilized than men.

men are slower in mind, with greater
strength Of body (they are two, three
and four times as strong as women,

greater lung capacity. more blood cor

rather drawbacks than otherwise, since
men are less able to endure confine-

THE SWELLING TOAD.
Curious Points About This Oddly
Among Animals.

Among Animals.
The wonder of the genus batrachia
and the greatest natural history Qddity
to be found along the Atlantic coast
Of the United States is the swelling
toad, a semiaQuatic creature known TO
naturaliSts rs bufomachalatus. 1t is
occasionally met with from New York
city to Jacksonville, Fla, but is most
common along the coasts of Virginia.
Maryland and North Carolina. When
in IFS natural state the swell toad
is about the size Of Il large bullfrOG,
but looks more like a fish than 1t does
like either frog or Il toad. 1t is
about six inches in length and has the
curious faculty Of being able to swell
to the size Of football, in which state
it's legs, tail and head are scarcely
visible
Irritation appears to be the chief
factor in causing these curious crca-
lures to inhale air until they swell al
most to bursting. The bellies Of both
the males and females are nearly pure
white and are covered with spines
which give that portion Of their anato-
my the appearance Of a we'll rip
ened Unison bur Persons who under
stand the swell toad" and know what
an irritable little rascal it is catch 1t
and rub the spines on its belly, when
it swells up until it is utterly helpless
Another curious point about the crea-
ture is that as long as it is kept on
it's back it is unable to eXpel the air so
as to reduce the swelling.

THE HANKOW RAILROAD.
Chinese Minister Held Conference
With the President.

Sir Chentung LANG Cheng, Chinese min
ister called ON the President at Sycamore
Hill last night. He took dinner with the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt. Sir LANG
made an engagement by telegraph to see
the President. The minister came particu-
larry to talk over with the President mat
tiers relating to the Hankow railroad, con-
corning which J. Pierpont Morgan had a
conference Monday with the President. Sir
Liang desired to obtain some information
about that conference and to present also
a statement of the situation from the stand
point of the Chinese government. Sir LANG
remained at Sycamore Hill about two hours.
The President authorized the statement
that the conference related entirely to the
negotiations pending in regard to the Han
koW railroad
Sir Lang before he departed for New
York, said he simply desired to discuss the
railroad question with the President, but
regretted that he could not at this time talk
about the subject for publication.
China wants to purchase the railroad
and it's concessions" said he ''and has
made an offer for 1t. What that offer is 1
cannot disclose just now. We are trying
to patch UP an arrangement that will be
satisfactory, and think entirely friendly
settlement will be reached"
HAS the Chinese government at any time
threatened to seize the Hankow railroad?'
'Oh, no." replied the minister. Not at
all. We have merely offered to purchase
It."
The company" said he has concessions
for $50 miles of line, but in seven years 1t
has built only twentyeight miles,
The minister indicated that many Chinese
were opposed to any railroads. but said ex-
pressly that objection was not due to for
eign control of the line.

Jackson says hts actions are unaccount-
able to him. As IL he were in a trance he

When he recovered his senses and realized
the seriousness of his situation his first
thought was to secrete himself until he mad
made enough money to return to his ship
and prove his honor.
He is prepared to meet whatever punish

only excuse is that the first few days after
he left his ship are blank to him. suK-
