Because they thought they had been
abused and overworked the two In

A.. ~ he Ten.

An American city once asked MAC
Monies, the sculptor, to enter design
TO. army and navy groups for a Sol.
iiie,s' and sailors monument. He de-
Glued to compete. Then the commits
sion was rendered to him outright. He
submitted sketches Of his idea for the
groups. The committee in charge or
the monument wrote him, asking,
"How many tons Of granite do you In
tend to use In the baseT His reply
was: IF you are in the business OF
buying granite you may use as much
as you want, one ton or 100000 tons.
I am an artist, and never yet heard
of art being bought by the pound"
The question was dropped until the
contract for the commission was
drawn. When Mr.. MacMonnies re-
ceived It he discovered in it a clause
providing that In case the bronzes were
ever thrown down from their base, by
any cause whatever, and any person
or properly should be injured, he and
his heirs forever should be liable for
the damage sustained. He returned
the contract without comment, unsign-
ed. When the committee wrote him,
asking the reason, his brief reply was,
"Your lawyers are too sharp."-WOrld's
Work.

Dreams.

A scientist explains some Of the
strange phenomena Of dreams by say
ing that they are due to what he calls
hereditary memory" He takes the
failing through space" dream and
points out that after suffering the men'
tai agony of falling the sleeper es-
capes the shock of the actual stopping.
The explanation is that the falling SEN
sations have been transmitted from
remote ancestors who were fortunate
enough to save themselves after fall
ing from great heights in treetops by
clutching the branches. The mOlecu-
lar changes in the cerebral cells due
to the shock Of stopping could not be
transmitted because victims falling to
the bottom would be killed. In a SIM
liar manner by reverting to the habits
of animals; which existed centuries ago
the same investigator finds an eXpla-
nation for the mental state experience
ed by individuals in various dreams

reptile and vermin" dream, color
dreams, suffocation dreams, flying
dreams and the like.

Ulcer OF The
Stomach
1Ns1pIous NATURE OF THE DISEASE

INsIDIoUs NATURE OF THE DISEASE
HOW TO RECOGNIZE AND CURE 1T.
Ulcer of the stomach may exist for
years without very marked symptoms,
excepting those caused by indigestion.
It is due to an inflammation which
affects the membrane Of the stomach so
that it is eaten away by the gastric
juices.
In good health, the stomach resists the
action of the gastric juices, but when
weakened, the membrane Is badly nour-
ished and the digestive fluids act upon 1t
as we'll as upon the food, keeping
up until perforation of the stomach
occurs. In advanced cases of ulcer OF
the stomach there is much discomfort
after eating, with a constant gnawing
sensation between meals, pain from the
pit OF the stomach back to the shoulder
blade.
At the first symptoms Of Indigestion,
treatment should at once be started with
Mona. This is a scientific remedy
adapted specifically to one purpose, the
cure of stomach troubles: It is 80 uni
formly successful that F. A. Shurtleff &
Co. give signed guarantee with every
so cent box that the money will be re-
funded IL it does not cure.
Mona is not patent or secret rem
edy, but is combination of the pnrest
and most reliable of remedies for
strengthening the digestive organs and
building up the whole system. Use 1t
for few days and there is no reason
why you should not be able to eat any
food you like at any time without fear
of distress.

Nearly everything in the animal
kingdom was formerly used in the
healing art. In the oldest medical
book now known, composed in Hello

house of Potiphar, we find means for
increasing the growth Of hair, prepar-
ed for Schesch, the mother Of Teta, the
king of upper and lower Egypt"
Dogs teeth, Overripe dates and
asses boots were carefully cooked In
oil and then grated. AS Teta lived be-
fore Cheops, this recipe for hair oil Is
older than the great pyramid Mt Gizeh
and is supposed to date back more than
5000 years. The heads Of venomous
serpents have held an important place
in medicine. A strong broth made
from them and mixed with salt and
spices and 100 other remedies was en-
ployed under the name of theriac as q
cure for every conceivable disease.
