One nice thing about the pres

Howard Gould's wife's sister has
just rounded up and married q
Chinaman in the quaking city at
the Golden Gate, while Howard
Gould's sister is making frantic
efforts to cut loose from her two
million-dollar Frenchman, and now
to cap the climax, the press dis
patches bring the information
that Howard Goulds wife is going
to Sioux Falls to get loose from
the aforesaid gay and festive
Howard. Truly, as Blue Jay OBJ
serves, there are "diddings' galore
in the Gould camp.
It is, perhaps, not in the best
taste for me to toss bouquets to
some particular one of the galaxy
of finished and forceful writer's
whose productions grace the pages
of The MIRROR from week to week,
but I cannot refrain from congrat-
ulating both The MIRROR and my
esteemed friend, 1881" on the
snap and finish which he puts in
to all his writings. There is never
dull or uninteresting line in them
and the only complaint I have to
make is that he so rarely appears
before us.
From the far coast of Guinea in
Darkest Africa comes story of
the discovery of a marvellous fruit
which is said to possess the power
of changing any acid substance
into sweetness so sweet and de-
licious that honey, or the ripe, red
lips of Minnetonka Beach sum-
mer girl pale into insignifcance.
It is said to be an effective chaser
for stiff dose of quinine right off
the end of the knife blade, or if
lemon be eaten within three hours
of having partaking of this fruit
it's acid flavor is entirely elimi-
mated. It is becoming quite the
style to "hand out lemons" so this
African fruit ought to have agreat
vogue.
Charles Austin Bates is one of
the great authorities on the writ
ing of advertisements. His fold
ers, circulars, post cards and
booklets are used, literally, by the
ton, by our brightest and most
progressive advertisers. Listen to
his opinion as to the necessity of
an ad writer being an expert in
the business for which he writes
the literature; I clip this extract
from an article in the Bookkeeper:
"A whole lot of embyro ad writer's
have told me, for example, that
they could not write drug ads be-
cause they had never been in the
drug business and didn't know
what to say. By the same token,
l ought not to attempt to write adj
vertisements for anything but the
book business, the printing bust
ness or for a department store, be-
cause when I started in the adver-
Using business, my experience had
previously been confined to those
lines of endeavor. Still, I think I
may say without egotism, that I
have been fairly successful in
writing advertising literature for
about every business under the sun.
Now, isn't it nonsensical for any
man to say he can't write good
drug ad or a good shoe ad because
he has never been in either the

TIE ROOSEVELT BEARS.
Two Big Brutes From the Mountains Are
Coming East.---Every Town VIII
See Them.

Two jolly, wholesome bears from the
mountains Of Colorado, "Teddy B." and
"Teddy G." started East this week to see
the big towns of the Central and Atlantic
States. They telephoned President
Roosevelts family before they left Colo
RADIO, asking an appointment with the
junior Rooseyelts, and they will be heard
from all along the line on their trip east.
The two bears are good fellows, and know
something of the world-even though
they were brought up in the mountains
Of Colorado-where
They chopped down trees and hunters
dared,
And bOssed their ranch and panthers
scared,
And preached to goats and bighorn sheep,
And ordered that they the laws should
They boxed with chums and umpired
strife,
And generally led strenuous life.
The story OF the adventures of "The
Roosevelt Bear" will be told in The
Pttsburg Sunday Dispatch, beginning
next Sunday, by Paul Piper, who has
had good deal of fun with the bears al
ready. There will be plenty of pictures
Of the two animal tourists in various
kinds of scrapes, aud the story of their
trip will all be told in rhyme. Crown
ups as we'll as children will enjoy "The
Roosevelt Bears" in The Dispatch next
Sunday.

still continues. Up in the reforming East
the pass Is no longer to be had. Hence

For the first time since the Klondike
region was opened up, the gold produc-
tiou on the American side Of the line has
surpassed the output Of the British ter
ritory in the northwest. In comparison
of the Nome and KloDdike districts the
Tacoma Ledger says: The yield for 1905
at Nome and in the surrounding district
is estimated by experts at approximately
100000 and the Tansna Valley has
cleaned up s., 100000. Last year the total
gold production for all Alaska was
$4,000. 600, or nearly 81 100000 less than
this years clean up at Nome alone, where
the principal increase took place during
the last summer. 1t is safe TO assume
that the entire Alaskan gold output will
not be far short Of 10000, 900. On the
other hand, the Klondike output for 1904,
which was SIC. .s29 600. will not be much
exceeded by it, total for 1905.

More fatalities have their origin in or
result from cold than from any other
cause. This fact alone should make peo-
pie more careful as there is no danger
whatever from a cold when it is properly
treated in the beginning. For many

been recognized as the most prompt aud
effectual medicine in use for this disease.

MAJOR ISAAC b. Brown, Secretary Of
Internal Affairs, at Harrisburg, in his re-
cent report, suggests that "the railroads
should abandon their plan by which an
extra deposit OF $40 is required on each
mileage book, and that these books he
sold for their face value and without the
restrictions that characterize those now in
use in Pennsylvania" 70 which every
body who travels will yield ready as
sent. The man who thought out the idea
of depOsiting an extra ten dollars for a
mileage book and confining its use to a
single person is not likely TO have mon
ument erected 10 his memory by his
grateful fellow countrymen.-Punsutaw-
ney Spirit.
II is estimated that the amount Of this
S3O-depost runs up into the millions an
nually, some careful calculators estimat-
ing tho amount to be over 100000,
which the railroads thus have the use of.
According TO this it is not likely the
railroads will abandon the scheme with
outa hard kick.
