aanke. and Hi. Hor.e.

Animal trainers of the old days led
adventurous lives. In 1900 all London
was talking Of man named Bankes,
servant to the Earl Of Essex. who had
taught his horse to count and perform
a number of feats, including mounting
TO the top of st. Paul's cathedral, while
"a number of asses" as the historian
puts 1T, "brayed below" Sir Walter
Raleigh in his history says ef Bankesj
that he would have shamed all the:
5enchanters of the world, for whatso-f
ever was most famous among them
could never master or instruct any
beast as he did his horse" When
Bankes took his horse to Rome both
were burned for witchcraft.

Duels With Pistols.

Discussing pistols as dueling weap-
ons, the Paris Figaro sought the views
Ola manswhoihad the reputation of an
expert on the field Of honor. He at
once began1to rail at, duels with pistols.
He could not bear even to speak of
them. The fact was that he had once
himself at an encounter of that kind
received q ball In the shoulder.
''Then You disapprove of them simply
because you were defeated?"
"Why, L was not defeatedF
''What!'
"No: 1 was a,second. You.may we'll
believe that promised myself never
to mix again in affairs Of that sort.
However, one day I had to accompany
friend on the field. He had asked it
Of me as personal favor. Icould not
refuse. But I insisted upon one con-
dition."
'What was that?''
'That should climb a tree during
the firing"
"a good scheme"
''You think SO? WellSI was wounded
again. Ny friend fred in the air!'

Great Diseovery.

. The editor of a Kansas paper states
that <he once borrowed q Winchester
rife and started up the street few
days after to deliver the weapon to It's
owner. The delinquent subscribers got
It into their heads that he was on the
,warpath, and every one he met insisted
on paying what he owed him. One
man wiped out a debt of ten years
standing. On his return to his Office he
found load of hay, fifteen bushels Of
corn, ten bushels of potatoes, a load of
wood and barrel If turnips that had
been brought In. We would like to
borrow Winchester for day or two.

The A1eutian Iklands.

Until the time of Peter the Great the
Aleutian islands were unknown. The
famous Russian monarch, consumed
with curiosity as to the distance be-
tween Asia and America, started. in
1925, the first Of the expeditions that
at last revealed those haunts Of the
bear, the beaver, the ermine and the
seal. But Captain Cook told more
about the islands than did all the Rus
sian explorers before him.

Is Disease a Crime :?

Not very long ago, popular magazine published an editorial article in which the writer asserted, in substance, that all disease should be regarded as criminal. Certain 1t is, that much of the sickness and suffering Of mankind is due to the violation of certain of Natures laws But to say that all sickness should ba regarded as criminal, must appeal to every reasonable individual as radically wrong.
 It would be harsh. unsympathetie. cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor, weak, over-wOrked housewife who sinks under the heavy load of household cares and burdens. and suffers from weak nesses, various displacementS of pelvic organs and other heterogeneous peculiar to her sex.
 Frequent bearing Of children. with its CT. acting demands upon the system coupled with the care. worry and labor Of rearing a large family. is often the cause of weak nesSeS. derangementS and debility which ara aggravated by the many household cares, and the hard. and never ending work which the mother Is called upon to perform Dr. Pierce. the maker of that world-famed rem edy for WOman'S peculiar weaknesses and ills-Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription-says that one of the greatest obstacles to the cure Of this class of maladies is the fact that the poor. over worked housewife can not get the and labor to enable her to secure from the use of his Prescription its full benefits It Is a matter of frequent experience he says. m hlS extensive practice in these cases. to meet with those in which his treatment fails by reason of the patients inability to abstain from hard work long enough to be cured With those suffering from prolapsus. ante version and retroversiOn of the uterus or other displacement of the WOmanly organs it is very necessary that. in addition to talk ing his rFavOrite Prescription they abstain from being very much. or for long periods on their feet All heavy lifting or straining ot any kind should also be avoided As much outdoor air as possible. with moderate. light exercise is also very important.
