Few of those who revel in turtle
soup at Guildhall luncheon or dinner
have visited the desolate, uninviting
Island of Ascension, where the turtle
is Matched and reared, where he is care
fully tended by experts and finally by
slow stages attans the maturity at
which the Guildhall cook can step i'll
and claim him for his own
In that land of perpetual sun, where
roads are not and ruts plOwed afresh
in the shifting sand serve their pur-
pose the turtle Is a powerful asset. In
dark, cool sheds lie large masses OF
eggs, looking for all the world like golf
balls. The baby turtles of fortnight
old and upward are next inspected,
ugly, Shiny little creatures, black and
white, with prOtruding eyes and al
ready enormously strong fins, which
they use TO the utmost when handled
Lastly comes the great ponds without
covering, where they bask and dream
their way to maturity.
A turtle Of ten birthdays is cousid'
cred very young indeed. Many veter-
ans head the list with fifty or sixty
years to their credit.-Pall Mall Ga

CLEVER DOCTOR
Cured 20 Years Trouble Without
ANY Medicine.

A wise Indiana physician cured 20
years stomach disease without any
medicine, as his patient tells:
Il had stomach trouble for 20 years,
tried allopathic medicines, patent medi-
cines and all the simple remedies sug-
gested by my friends, but grew worse
all the time.
Finally a doctor who Is the most
prominent physician in this part Of the
State told me medicine would do me no
good, only irritating my stomach and
making 1t worse-that | must look to
diet and quit drinking coffee
Il cried out In alarm, Quit drinking
coffee! why, What will | drnk?'
"'Try Postum said the doctor; 1
drink it and you will like it when 1t Is
made according to directions, with
cream, for 1t is delicious and has none
of the bad effects coffee has
"Well, that was two years ago, and
am still drinking Postum. My stomach
is right again and | know Doctor hit
the nail on the head when he decided
coffee was the cause of all my trouble
| only wish had quit 1t years ago and
drank Postum in its place" Name
given by Postum Co, Battle Creek,

works wonders. There's a reason.

A New Cure For Appendicitis.


much has been sale the subject
of the treatment of appendicitis, prin-
Clpally with reference to the question
whether, in 4 given case, an operation
must be performed to save the life OF
the patient" says al eminent phys
ician and surgeon who has recently
been in Germany for the purpose of
studying this disease. 1T would
doubtless be a great boon If remedy
could be found to make an operation
unnecessary" continued the doctor.
Such p remedy, it is alleged, has been
found under the name of 'collangOl.'
COllangOl Is a form of pure silver SOL
uble in water, which Is of recent dis
cOvery. The antlseptc property Of
silver has long been known. Based
upon this knowledge, successful expert
ments have been made by some noted
German physicians through the use Of
the soluble. The treatment, according
to his statement, has yielded extraor-
dinarily good results after three days.
Excepting two very se' ere cases out
Of Geventy-two which came under his
observation, all were cured without
any surgical operation. 1t is claimed
that this treatment is very much
superior to any other; "and am salts
fed" says the physician, "in stating
that every case Of appendicitis, if early
diagnosed, be it ever 2cute and ma
lignant, can be cured with collangol
without resortnG to the knife. "-Har.

yyhv the Bread Came Back,

A boy who had been working in
bakers shop for some time was just
about to finish his trade. One night
when the boss was gone he broke the
marble slab he nodded his lOaves on,
so he went to the marble yard to Sc
cure another, but could not find one.
On the way back he passed a grave
yard, and, as it was very dark, he
Jumped over and pulled up a small
headstOne about the right size and
took it back and finished his job, The
next day, after the bread had been dc
livered, nearly all Of it was sent back
The baker looked at it and broke sew
eral Ioaves open, but found noting
wrong. Then he happened to turn one
Of the loaves over, and found on the
under side Of every loaf the inscrip'
ton: Here lies the body of Mrs. --.

Merely a Woman,s Question.

The late Senator Hoar of MassaChu-
sets was sitting with his wife on the
porch of his house in Worcester when
two express wagons drove up and the
men unloaded five enormous boxes on
the sidewalk
What on earth is that, Mr. Hoar?"
asked Mrs. Hoar
The Senator went out and peered at
the boxes. Then he answered proudly:
My dear, these boxes contain tue
staircase from an ancestral home Of
the Hoar family in England. ! bought
It when ! was in England"
"Indeed?" replied Mrs. Hear, not a
whit impressed. And what do you in
tend to do with it, may l ask?'
The Senator was flabbergasted. At
last he said with great dignity: Mrs,
Hoar, that is merely a woman's ques-
ton. Saturday Evening Post,

quires a square and ttawless morality.

opportunity to preach clean man.
preachers nor teachers can do the
work Of fathers except in their own
families. We do not mean to under
estimate the marvellous influence Of

reach the success give their mothers
the credit.

1T was you who taught me to write
so. You really did, dear mother"
said the grabbed Carlyle.
We get our moral qualities from
our mothers, our mental from our
fathers, say the psychologists, and as
we look back we find this maternal
affection the loveliest thing on earth.
But isn't there a conviction down deep
in our souls that We should have done
much better If our fathers had taken
time and trouble to share our conf
dences in the years that counted

"Deadheaa" Originated in Delaware.

"DPAdheR1" Originated In Delaware
The term "deadheads" is in various
connections very much to the fore at
the present time. How did 1t arise!
Its origin is purely transatlantic.
Sixty years ago all the principal ave
nues of the city of Delaware led IN
one direction, to a tOllgate close to the
ElmwOod Cemetery road. This Gene
terry having been laid out long before
the construction of the plank road be
yond the tollgate, funeral professions
were allowed to pass along it toll free
One day as Dr.. Price, a well-known
physician, stopped to pay his toll he
observed to the gatekeeper.
considering the benevolent charac-
ter of the profession to which l have
the honor to belong, you ought to let
US pass toll free"
mo, no. DOCTOR" the man replied,
I'VE can't afford that. You send too
many deadheads through here as it is"
This story soon Travelled far and wide
until the term came to be applied to
any one who claims the privilege OF
travelling on railway system OF pass
ing into a place of amusement free Of
cost.-London Tribune.
