Tia+ening to the Fishes.

For listening to the noise made by
fishes in the depths of the seas, Nor
wegian inventor has devised a telephone
to be lowered overheard from fishing
boats. With this he claims a fisherman
can detect the presence OF fish, their
numbers and even their kind. Herrings,
or smaller fish, when they come in large
numbers, make a piping, whistling
sound. while cod make roaring noise.
When they come close to the submarine
telephone the movements of the indi-
yidual fish can be distinguished. The
instrument consists OF microphcne
in q Theoretically sealed steel box It
is connected by electric wires with a
telephone in the vessel above. Every
sound in the water below is intensified
by the microphone and conducted by
the electric wires to the telephone

Aristocrats Of st. Petersburg Spend

War or no war, the aristocratic Rus

abandonment that speaks of unlimited

says the Pail Mall Gazette. The pleas
ures of the table are protracted to an
inordinate degree. A lunch, in which
the courses are plentifully watered
with champagne, will spread itself
through the afternoon. You may bare

down, plying his guests with success
sion of good things, liquid and solid.
Even the afternoon tea in middle-class
circles is very formidable undertake
ing. 1t includes dishes of various sorts,
in which meat will certainly figure,
and Russian tea, served in glass with
lemon, is but the pale comparison to
sparkling champagne. The appearance
of the streets tells of wealth, too. No
finer equipages exist anywhere than
those which, horsed with coal-black
steeds, dash at full speed, in lofty dis

The emperor was mad at first, but

to me, "Hennery, you never ought to

having.

Deceased Wife's Sister Muddles.

Our refusal to recognize marriage
with a deceased wife's sister-which
is legal in the Australian common
wealth-has led to many complications
in the inheritance of property. And
very embarrassing social incidents
have happened. One OF the most I'M
pleasant occurred during the reign of
the late queen. Arrangements had
been made by the colonial office for
the presentation of an Australian cab
met minister and his wife at court.
but when it was found that the lady
was a deceased wife's sister the pro-
posed presentation was promptly over
ruled Such an episode is not likely
to be repeated, for King Edward, when
prince of Wales, voted in the house of
lords for the legalization of marriage
with a deceased wife's sister.-London

HONEST PHYSICIAN
Works with Himself First.

It is mistake to assume that physi-
clans are always skeptical as to the
curative properties of anything else
than drugs.
Indeed, the best doctors are those
who seek to heal with as little use of
drugs as possible and by the use OF
correct food and drink. A physician
writes from Calf. to tell how he made
a well man of himself with Natures
remedy:
Before I came from Europe, where
l was born" he says, cit was my Gus
tom to take coffee with milk (cafe au
laitl with my morning meal, small
cup (cafe noir) after my dinner and
two or three additional small cups at
my club during the evening.
In time nervous symptoms devel.
oped, with pains in the cardiac region,
and accompanied by great depression
of spirits. espondeney-in brief, the
bluesi' l at first tired medicines, but

all my troubles were caused by coffee.

substituting English Breakfast Tea.
1.-THE tea seemed to help me at first,
but in time the old distressing symp-
toms returned, and | quit it also, and
tried to use milk for my table bever-
age. This was compelled however to
abandon speedily for while it relieved
the nervousness somewhat, it brought
on constipation. Then by happy
inspiration 7 was led to try the Postum
Food Coffee. This was some months
ago and / still use it. I am no longer
nervous, nor do / suffer from the
pains about the heart, while my blues

Cure to Stay Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Sept. 18th, (Special).-
One of the most remarkable cures ever
recorded in Louisa County is that of Mrs.
il bed for eight months, and when she se
was able to sit up she was all drawn up
on one side, and could not walk across
the room. Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her.
Speaking of her cure Mrs. Hart says:
yes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after was in bed for eight months, and |
know the cure was complete, for that was
three years ago, and / have not been
down since. In four weeks from the time
| started taking them l was able to make
my garden. Nobody can know how
thankful am to be cured or how much /
feel | owe to Dodd's Kidney Pills"
This case again points out how much
the general health depends on the Kid
neys. Cure the Kidneys with Dodd's
Kidney Pills and nine-tenths of the suf-
fering the human family is heir to will
