All Loses to Be Paid.

1t was announced some time ago that
all insurance upon losses in the recent
San Francisco disaster will be paid.
and this assurance will do much to-
ward restoring confidence in the flu
ture. If you have lost your good health
through neglect. or carelessness, we
would urge you to try a few doses of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t is ac-
knowledged to be the best medicine.
not only to restore your health, but to
insure it for all future time. A few
doses now and then will aid nature
wonderfully In keeping all of the or
gans in proper working order. This is
proven by it's So years record of cures
of such ailments as poor appetite,
belching, bloating. headache, dyspepsia,
indigestion, biliousness, cramps, diar-
rhoea, female ills or malaria. Take a
supply on your vacation to counterfeit
the i'll effects of strange eating and
drinking.

When Maxim, the famous gun inven-
tor, placed his gun before committee
of judges, he stated it's carrying power
to be much below what he felt sure the
gun would accomplish The result OF
the trial was therefore a great surprise,
instead Of disappointment. 1t is the
same with the manufacturers of Cham

Remedy. They do not publicly boast
of all this remedy will accomplish, out
prefer to let the users make the state

There is excitement and indigna- tion among school children and their parents in Pittsfield, Mass, be- cause teacher told her pupils that they were a 'pack of unmitigated sardines, unregenerate Holsters and consummate idiots." Whereupon the Hartford Courant comments: "This teacher may have been merely try ing to awaken the interest of her flock, but even then, it must be ad- mitted that her language was ill., considered. She lacks proper and reasonable appreciation of values. No lobster that is fresh and we'll served is unregenerate, nor can orig inal sin be justly imputed to him." We, think the teacher in . question was simply putting in other words, somewhat more piquant, the terms with which Dr Johnson defined al pedagogue-"one whose duty, it Is to withcall vagrant inattention. stimulate sluggish inactivity and correct gross misapprehension." Now what is the difference between that and calling boy a "sardine," lobster and idiot"

Thomas A. Edison, who has just rounded his 59th year, said the other day that the world is now on the threshold of another wonderful era "a golden electrical age" He as- serts that the discovery of a direct process for harnessing the energy stored in coal will be made and mar keted during his lifetime. He ex- poets to live long enough ito see the air populous with ships, to hear of many nautilus speeding under seas, to witness the arrival and departure of three-day ocean liners. to board trains operated at fraction of their present cost and far exceeding those of to-day in speed, to perhaps dis cover the secret of life in radium, and to see the automobile become the dray and carriage of the world.

Japanese Girl Mountaineers

A little girl named Yaskuo, aged ten, daughter of Admiral Kabayama, ac- companied by a girl student of the Tokio Jogakkan named Kiyoko, aged 15, daughter of Consul General Araka- wa, and one maid, began to climb Fuji- yama on the 18th instant, says the Ja- pan Mail, and intended to spend a night at the seventh station, but they were compelled to stay there for two nights because of the stormy weather. They finally accomplished their object of reaching the summit and returned home safely on the 18th. Miss Yasuko kept an interesting diary of her trip for her father. So far comparatively few Japanese girls or women have as- cended Fuji, but latterly the idea has been popular among girl students. Miss Yasuko, the heroine of the pres- ent successful trip, lives at Gotemba, and is said to have been inspired to the effort by daily contemplation of the big mountain as seen from her fathers garden.
