tries and by Land and Sea.
Engllsh-speaking countries have four
different miles-the ordinary mile Of
$3.50 feet and the geographical or nau-
teal mile of 6,085, making a difference
of about one-seventh between the two;
then there is the Scotch mile Of 1928
feet, and the Irish mile of 6,720 feet;
four various miles, every one Of which
is still in use. Then almost every
country has it's own standard mile.
The Romans have their mil passnum,

about 5000 feet in length, unless we
ascribe to Caesars DICTIONARIES great

of today is 24,318 feet in length, more
than four and half times as long as
our mile. The Dutch, the Danes and
the Prussians enjoy mile that is 49,
440 feet long, three and one-half times
the length of ours; and the Swiss get
more exercise in walking their mile
than we get in walking five miles, for
their mile is 9,153 yards long, while
our is only 1,76O yards. The Italian
mile is. only few feet longer than
ours, the Roman mile is shorter, while
the Tuscan and the Turkish miles are
$50 yards longer. The Swedish mile is
7,341 yards long, and the Vienna post
mile is S,796 yards in length. So here
is a list of twelve different miles, and
besides this there are other measures
of distance, not counting the French
kilometer, which is rather less than
two-thirds of mile. The Brazialans
have militia that is one and one-fourth
times as long as our mile; the Neapo-
Titan miglio is about the same length;
the Japanese ri, or mile, is two and
one-half times ours; the Russian verst
is five-eighths. as long as our mile,
while the Persian standard IS fesakh,
four and half miles long, which Is

TOO MUCH FOR HIM.

The proprietor of tan yard built a
stand on one of the main streets of a
Virginia town for the purpose Of sell
ing leather and buying new hides.
When he had completed the building
he considered for a long time what
sort of sign to put up to attract atten-
ton to the new establishment FL
nally a happy thought struck him he
bored an augur hole through the door
post and stuck calf's tail into it with
the tufted end outside.
After awhile he saw solemn-faced
man standing near the door looking at
the sign, his eyes in a round, medita-
tive stare behind his spectacles. The
tanner watched him minute, then
stepped out and addressed him.
Good morning, sir + he said
"Morning!" said the other, without
taking his eyes off the sign.

THE POINT OF THE PRovERB.

An old proverb advises the shoe
maker to stick to his last. 1t means
that a man always succeeds best at
the business he knows. To the farmer
it means, stick to your pillow; to the
blacksmith, stick to your forge; to
| the painter, stick to your brush.
When we make experiments out OF our
line they are likely to prove expenr
sive failures.
II is amusing, however, to remark
how every one of us secretly thinks
he could do some other fellows work
better than the other fellow himself.
| The painter imagines he can make
naint better than the paint manufac-
turer; the farmer thinks he can do
Job of painting better, or at least
cheaper than the painter, and so on
A farm hand in one of Octave
Thanet's stories tells the Walking
Delegate of the Painters Union, ANY
body can slather paint" and the old
line painter tells the paint salesman,
None of your ready made mixtures
for me; I reckon l ought to know
how to mix paint"
The farm hand is wrong and the
nainter is wrong: Shoemaker, STICK
TO your last" The fancy farmer
can farm, of course, but it is an ex-
pensive amusement If it strikes him
as pleasant to grow strawberries at
ffty cents apiece, or to produce eggs
that cost him five dollars a dozen, II
is a form of amusement, to be sure,
if he can afford it, but it's not farm
ing. If the farmer likes to slosn
around with paint brush and can al
ford the time and the expense OF nav
ing practical painter do the JOB
right pretty soon afterward, It's
harmless form of amusement. Ii the
nainter's customers can anord 10
stand for paint that comes Off IN half
the time it should, they have perfect
right to indulge his harmless vanity
about his skill in paint. making. But
in none of these cases does the shoe
maker stick to his last.
There is just one class of men IN
the world that knows how to make
naint properly and have the facllltles
for doing it right; and that Is the
naint manufacturers-the makers of
the standard brands of ready-prepared
naints. The painter mixes paints;
the paint manufacturer grinds them
together. In a good ready-prepared
paint every article of one kind OF
pigment is forced to join hands with
narticle of another kind and every
hit of solid matter is forced, as it
were, to open it's mouth and drink in
it's share of linseed oil. That is the
only way good paint can be made, and
if the painter knew how to do it he
has nothing at hand to do it with. A
paint pot and a paddle are a poor
substitute for power mixers, buhr-mills
and roller-mills.
The man who owns building and
neglects to paint it as often as 1t
needs paint is only degree more
short-sighted than the one who tries
to do his own painting or allows the
painter to mix his paint for him.

at the door of my durbar room. I
have also ordered that a considerable
number Of gold coins should be sewn
into the saddles Of my horses when
required for journey, and on both
sides Of the saddles are two revolvers.
I think it is necessary In such a war

especially a sovereign who Is a SOL

BREAD DYSPEPSIA.
The Digesting Element Left Out

The Digesting Element Left Out.
Bread dyspepsia is common. 1t at
fects the bowels because white bread
is nearly all starch, and starch is di.
gested in the intestines, not in the
stomach proper.
Up under the shell of the wheat
berry nature has provided a curious
deposit which is turned into diastase
when it is subjected to the saliva and
to the pancreatic juices in the human
intestines.
This diastase is absolutely necessary
to digest starch and turn it into grape.
sugar, which is the next form; but that
part of the wheat berry makes dark
flour, and the modern miller cannot
readily sell dark flour, so natures val.
liable digester is thrown out and the
human system must handle the starch
as best it can, without the help that
nature intended
Small wonder that appendicitis, per
itonitis, constipation and all sorts OF
trouble exist when we go so contrary
to natures law. The food experts that
perfected Grape-Nuts Food, knowing
these facts, made use in their expert
ments of the entire wheat and barley
including all the parts, and subjected
them to moisture and long continued
warmth, which allows time and the
proper conditions for developing the
diastase, outside Of the human body.
In this way the starchy part is trans
formed into grape sugar in a perfect
ly natural manner, without the use OF
chemicals or any outside ingredients
The little sparkling crystals of grape.
sugar can be seen on the pieces OF
Crape-Nuts. This food therefore is
naturally pre-digested and it's use In
place of bread will quickly correct the
troubles that have been brought about
by the too free use of starch in the
food, and that is very common in the
human race to-day.
The effect of eating Grape-Nuts ten
DAYS or two weeks and the discontin
uance of ordinary white bread is very
marked. The user will gain rapidly in
strength and physical and mental
health.

HE WENT ON CRUTCHES
All Medicines Failed Until DR.. VIII
liams' Pink Pills Cured His
Rheumatism.

"Some years ago." says Mr.. w. H.
Clark, a printer, living at 612 Buchanan
street, Topeka, Kans., 81 had bad at
tack of rheumatism and could not seem
to get over it. All sorts of medicines
failed to do me any good and my trouble
kept getting worse. My feet were so
swollen that could not wear shoes and
/ had to go on crutches. The pain was
terrible.
"One day was setting the type Of an
article for the paper telling what DIR.
Williams Pink Pills had done for a man
afflicted as was and | was so impressed
with it that I determined to give the
medicine trial. For year my rheu-
matism had been growing worse, but
after taking DIR. Williams Pink Pills I
began to improve. The pain and swell
ing all disappeared and can truthfully
say that haven felt better in the past
twenty years than do right now. I
could name, off hand, half-dozen peo-
pie who have used DR.. Williams Pink
Pills at my suggestion and who have re-
ceived good results from them"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are guarar-
teed to be safe and harmless to the most
delicate constitution. They contain no
morphine, opiate, narcotic, nor any
thing to cause drug habit. They do not
act OH the bowels but they actually make
new blood and strengthen the nerves.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure rheuma-
tism because they make rich, red blood
and no man or woman can have healthy
blood and rheumatism at the same time.
They have also cured many cases Of
an@mia, neuralgia, sciatica, partial pa
ralysis, locomotor ataxia and other dis
eases that have not yielded to ordinary
treatment.
