The Renewal a Strain.

Vacation is over. Again the
school bell rings 4, morning and at
noon. again with tens of thousands
the hardest kind of work has begun,
the renewal of which is a mental and
physical strain to all except the most
rugged. The little girl that a few
days ago had roses in her cheeks, and
the little boy whose lips were III n
so red you would have insisted that
they had been kissed by strawber-
ries," have already lost something
of the appearance of health. Now
is time when many children should
be given a tonic, which may avert
much serious trouble, and we know
of no other so highly to be recon-
mended as Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which strengthens the nerves, per-
fects digestion and assimilation, and
aids mental development by building
up the whole system.

Kite Flies Under Water.

New YORK lfibuhe.l
A strange kite has been devised by
a Swedish engineer. 1t is made to
fly under water. 1t is made of light
canvas adjusted to a light but strong
metal frame and in shape no dissim-
liar to the aerial kite, except it is
made in two sections, the lower and
smaller. one depending from the up

sort Of coupling. The object sought
by the engineer is to provide ships
with an ever.ready automatic guard
or watch that will give instant alarm
if the vessel enters shoal waters and
is approaching a spot where the
depth is not sufficient for safety.
The underwater kite is fastened to
thin wire cable attached to winch
on deck. The purpose of the water
kite is 10 foat beneath or beside the
ship a. a depth that is sufficient to
insure safety. If at any time. day
or night, the lower section of the
kite strikes bottom a device instant

Pulling On the Halter

This is habit which the horse ac-
quires by being hitched with too
slight halter. By once breaking
away he will try it again, and if he
succeeds once or twice the habit is
fixed and he will try it as often as
opportunity offers. If he has been
in the habit of breaking away in the
stable he will not attempt it on the
street; if the habit has been con-
tracted on the street he will be safe
in the stable, unless he has learned it
in both places. This proves that a
horse learns his vicious tricks; that
when he has been successful under
certain circumstances, when the
same opportunity occurs again, he
will try il. The most successful
remedy is to take a half-inch cord,
double it and place the double end
under his tail in form or a cripper,
crossing the two ends over his back,
and carving them forward, one on
side Of the neck, through the halter
ring, and hitch to the manger or
post. One or two pulls will satisfy
him and break him of the habit.

DIGS UP LOST JEWELS.
Gems Worth $4,000 Found by
Fair Wrecker in ST.
Louis.

Sometimes fortune smiles on the
man behind the pick, but not often
so kindly as she did on John p.
O'Arion. one of the army of la
bors engaged in the demolition of
the worlds fair buildings says a
st. Louis telegram.
Between poor, but honest, O'Brien
an elephant in far off India, low
caste Hindoo who didn't want to die
with a black secret in his heart, a
rich Eglish man. and a wallet filled
with jewels, $4,000 worth there
wouldn't seem much connection at
first sight. But the fates had willed
it so, and left it for O'Brien trusty
pick to demonstrate. Now, to put
the last chapter first, every is hap
py but the Hindoo. he being dead by
reason of the elephant. O'Brien has
laid aside his pick to become the SER
vent of the Englishman, and the En-
glishmans wife has $4,000 worth
Of jewels she mourned as lost. And
this is how the problem is worked
out:
p. Henry Clayton a wealthy En-
glishman, who has large commercial
interests in India, accompanied by
his wife visited the worlds fair.
They brought with them a Hindoo
servant. who was known by the abb
breviated title of Kane.
Mrs. Clayton is the posseSsor of
many costly jewels. During her So
journ of several Weeks in St. Louis
she carried the more priced of her
collection of gems in an alligator
purse stored away in the bottom of
a trunk. Its location was known on
ly to Mr.. and Mrs. Clayton.
Both had implicit faith in the Hin
DOCS honesty. Kane. however,
proved unworthy of the trust. He
explored the trunk, found the jewels
in the purse, and stole them.
Two months ago when Kane was
fatally injured by an elephant in
India. he confessed to the robbery.
On his deathbed he said he had sto-
len the purse, laden with the costly
jewels. and was carrying it on his
person during the fair period. One
day he was with the Claytons in the
Manufacturers building. Seized
with fear he was passing the
aperture in the Manufacturers
building, he cast the purse into the
hole.
The robbery was not known to
Mrs. Clayton or her husband until
they reached England. They did
not suspect their Hindoo servant.
After the Hindoo's confession in
India the Chicago Housewrecking
Company received a letter from Mrs.
Clayton, who was then in England,
telling where he had thrown the
jewels. There O'Brien found them
on the day Mrs. Clayton arrived in
St. Louis.

And you on the water wagon

Just so. But luckily, there was
one thing that saved me-"
