Average Weight of Man.

The average weight of man is 154
pounds, made up as follows: Muscles
and their appurtenances, 6S pounds;
skeleton, "a pounds; skin, 1Ob
pounds; fat, % pounds; brain,
pounds; thoracic viscera, 31s pounds;
abdominal viscera, II pounds; blood
which would drain from the body, 7
pounds. The heart of such a man
would beat rs times a minute, and he
should breathe Is times a minute. In
twenty-four hours he would vitiate
1,750 cubic feet of pure air to the ex.
tent of per cent. A man, therefore,
of the weight mentioned should have
800 cubic feet of well-ventilated space.
He would throw off by the skin Is
ounces of water, 300 grains of solid
matter and 400 grains of carbonic
acid every twenty-four hours; and his
total loss during that period would be
6 pounds of water and a little more
than 2 pounds of other matter.

In sacrifice hitting George Ferris is

than Is times, while second to him is
Schils of Boise with but five success

a long distance slugger with the largest

EXCHANGES.

According to the latest figures on
the percentages of the different teams
and players of the Pacific National
league, revised up to June 5, the Boise
team led all the others in run gettins
having made al TALES to 119 for Og-
den, the nearest competitor. This not
withstanding the Ogden players batted
out 25 more safe hits than the Boise
men. Hammond and Schils led the
league in both run getting and stealing
bases.
In giving the list of percentages,
beth fielding and batting. the Spokane
Spokesman-Review says:
Manager Mcintyre of the Boise team
led the Pacific National league in bat
ting. In connection with McIntyres
fine average, it might also be noted
that he is one of the heaviest sluggers
in the league. He has a number of
long hits mixed in with his safe hit
percentage, and is one of the most
dangerous men with the club in q
pinch. Next to him stands PA" Gin
lin, who has been doing good stick
work this year. Charles Reilly, who
led a short time ago, has taken big
drop and now stands tenth in the list

Stanley third of the Indian batters.
In team hitting Ogden leads Boise by
a close margin. Salt Lake has third

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE.
Hyomei, the Guaranteed catarrh Cure
Prescribed by Physicians.

No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as
far superior to them all as the dia-
mOnd is more valuable than cheap
glass. Their composition is secret,
but Hyomei gives It's formula to all
reputable physicians.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making a
pure liquid, which when used in the
Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the air
you breathe with germ-killing, disease
destroying and healing powers that
kills all catarrhal germs there may be
in the throat, nose and lungs.
How foolish it is to try and cure ca
tarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids.
The only natural way to cure this
disease and all other diseases of the
respiratory organs is to breathe
HyOmel.
This treatment has been so success
full, curing 80 per cent of all who have
used it, that Hyomei is now sold by
the Red Cross Drug Store under an
absolute guarantee to refund the
money if it does not cure. You run
no risk whatever in buying Hyomei.
If it did not possess unusual powers to
cure, it could not be sold upon this
plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81 and comprises an inhaler, bottle
of Hyomei and a dropper. The inhal-
er win last lifetime; and additional
bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for
30 cents.

AFRICAN PYGMlES.


Recent investigations of the region
have excited new interest in the mys-
FERROUS small folk who inhabit the for
ests Of the island. Tiny deniZens Of
the deep, still woods, sparing of speech
and having either no form Of religious
worship, or very crude one, they are
Of a very low order Of intelligence
But they know how to make fire, to
poison their little murderOus darts, and
they have a language, although 1t Is
simple, and contains but few words.
Although averaging only about four
feet in height they are nevertheless
not to be despised as foemen. They
are strange uncanny looking creatures,
of lighter color than the average ne
gro, and having rich hair which rolls
In tightly-turled spiral locks. This
gives it the appearance Of growing In
tufts.
The pygmy race was known to the
encients. Aristotle, Herodotus and
Homer wrote of the dwarfs, and prob
ably many of the legends of gnomes
and fairy folk grew out OF the misty
knowledge of these small tribes. "A
kinde Of little people which are no big
ger than Boyes of twelve yeares olde
but verie thicke, and live only upon
heshe which they kill in the woods
with Bowes and Dartes," wrote a sew
enteenth century author.
The pygmies have little or no idea Of
a Supreme Being. One tribe has been
found who in times of danger prayed
to Yer" One traveller records such
a supplication.

dost thou let US be slain7 We ask thee

normally high wages, and all his en-
ployes receive liberal pensions in their
old age or in case Of sickness. He
also provides literally for the widows
and children out of his private purse.
All these payments consume large
proportion of the profits, so that the
Emperor's income from his estates Is
comparatively small.
Practically speaking, the German
Emperor Is thus obliged to live on his
royal income Of 100000 per annum,
which is altogether insufficient for his
requirements. The Kaiser has no per-
sonal extravagances, but lives a SIM
pie and strenuous life Of hard work
and little luxury. He spends little
money on his table, for the cuisine Of
the German imperial residence Is no
torious for its inferiority.
The Kaiser is not dandy, and
spends a comparatively small amount
every year on his clothes. The horses
he rides are not Of particularly
good breed, and not unusually expen-
sive. He Is not gambler, and does
not indulge in other designations which
would be excusable in his position.
He is, however, extravagant in one
respect, namely, in keeping up the
imperial magnifcence of his court on
scale never previously attempted by
King of Prussia. The support Of rel
atives forms first charge on the
Kaiser's income. He has to provide
an annual allowance for his six sons,
and has to maintain a separate court
for several more distant relatives.
Apart from his expenditure for pur-
poses Of royal display, the Kaiser de-
votes a large sum every year to the
encouragement Of art and of the
drama He is continually ordering
monuments to be erected at his own
expense, and buys pictures for presen-
tation to public galleries.
The Kaiser maintains the Royal
Opera House, the Royal Theater In
Berlin, and the Royal Theater at
Wiesbaden at his own expense. All
three theaters are conducted only par
TALLY as profit-making concerns.
With all these financial burdens the
Kaiser is unable to make both ends
meet on his income, and has been
obliged to borrow money from some
Of his wealthy subjects.
