Hot Springs on Roller Skates.

Hot Springs, March 8. -Thous- ands of tourists now sojourning at this resort have gone in for roller-skating with such enthus- iasm that one rink is handling it's full capacity nightly, a second is being rebuilt to accommodate twice as many as before, and two more are being built, wi h other people figuring on launch ing out in the business.
 So far as reported the casualt- ies are as follows: One girl thrown into nervous prostration by a fall; one boy, his teeth knocked out in collision; under pinning displaced at one rink by sudden precipitation of 300-pound blonde who was conveyed home in a cab, and is now recovering.
 Although the craze is but a month old, it has reached re- markable proportions and has been the object of denouncement from several pulpits.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can- not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eastacian Tube. When this tube is infamed you have rum- bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

MOST POPULAR NUMBkE,
Saven and Thirteen Are Fixed W in the Minds of ths Greatsr
 Number of Men.

Ask a man to pick out some num-' Der between one and ten, and you can tell him nine times out of ten what number he has selected. though his ss- lection is made mentally" said man who according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat. is fond of the old things. "and when you come to think of it, the task of naming the correct number is not a difficult one. In the asked ten men t., think of a certain number-any number between ons and ten-and would tell them what mum. bsr they had dzsd their mind on. In nine cases out of ten was correct, missing 1t only oncA The minds oi nine of the persons selected the mum. Der seven. and ono of them selected nine. It is not difficult to understand why the mind should run to the num- Der seven. Even in the case of the man who fixed his mind on the num- Der nine, he told me when 1t was all over that his mind had first run to seven. but he quickly changed to nino "A"ANu] hAoWAA6 JuoI WAy AI was Iuot he changed. Seven is the most prom tnent figure between one and ten. It . the most popular number in the line, and is associated with more things than any other number, and it is quits reasonable that the mind should light on seven. made another test the other day with five persons, asking each of them to write some number between one and ten, and give 1t to sixth per- son. When the slips had been handed to the sixth man said: Seven is the number on each of the slips
 Correct" said the man to whom they had been handed, and the nve men were a bit bewildered for the moment by the fact that they had all hit upon the same number, and that l was able to tell what the number was. It would be quite as easy to name number between 10 and 20. though I have made no tests along this line. I dare say that 13 would be the f1rst number to flash in the mind, simply because 1t Is the most talked of, and the only number between 10 and 20 that has the widest association. So you can tell there is no trick about 1t, and 1t doesn't require any knowledge of the occult philosophies."

EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Some of Our Larger Cities Have An nexed Ground Far Into AdiA-
 cent Farm Lands.

According to a recently Issued census bulletin, the real rank of cities is not al- ways indicated by the order in which they stand in the tables of population Some great centers have considerable part of their massed population lying outside the municipal boundaries. Bos" ton is a good example; about 200, 900 people live in sight of the state house dome, and less than 00.000 of them are governed by the Boston mayor. Other cities have annexed far into the farm lands of the adjacent country, says Youths Companion.
 It Is customary to speak of the popula- tion of state, "in proportion to it's size" Such a comparison Is seldom made of cities, although 1t might not be uninteresting. Pittsburg. for example, has a population of third of million on 18,000 acres of ground; New York's population, little more than ten times as great, spreads over nearly 12 times as many acres.
 Chicago was long famous for its an. nexation habit, but since 1890 New York udS duucAcu MuCu ulOIt L6TTlJOTy Ludu Chicago's total area. New Orleans has a slightly larger area than Chicago Each of them covers six times the area of Baltimore.
 Washington which occupies the Mary. land part of the ten miles square set aside for national capital, is a fair sized city as area goes, for this genera ,ion. It may seem small a century hence although it looked abundantly ample for all the purposes of urban development when laid out.
 Tn the case of cities as we'll as of other corporations, consolidation is plainly ore of the tendencies of the times. More than one-third of those in the United States have added to their territory by annexation since 1890 Townships and counties are occasionally subdivided. by reason of local interests. but the cities seem to be steadily pushing their boun. daries outward. There are some eco. homie reasons for this but the reason In many cases has been the desire of their inhabitants to make "good show, ,ug."

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
 IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp- toms is the Prime Cause of so Many Deaths from the Dreaded
 Bright's Disease.
1t is Easily Durable in the Early Stages,

Kidney diseases are so destructive to human life because they do not manifest alarming symptoms until the constitu- ton is seriously weakened and the strength exhausted. Then, too often, the remedies employed by many physi- clans are of indifferent or doubtful value, and the patient rapidly sinks under the disease. The wisest course is 10 apply a reliable kidney and liver remedy on the f,-St abbearance of the symptoms. A l little uneasiuess in the small of the back, digestive troubles, bowel irregularities and disorder i'll the urinary organs are matters of small moment in the estima- ton of strong men and women, yet they have a serious meaning. They show clearly that the kidneys are suffering and need help, which must be forth coming at once to prevent serious, per haps fatal consequences. few doses of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would prove of incalculable value i'll restoring the weakened organs to health. An investment of one dollar in bottle of Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is yet in the early stage will save hundreds of dollars in doctors bills, besides the suffering that would surely follow should the disease be allowed to fasten itself i'll the body. The excellent curative power of Priclly Ash Bitters is not confined to the first stages of kidney disease. It is equally eficacious in severe or chronic cases. Physicians have used it as last resort, in cases that dehed their best efforts, with the most brilliant results, and it has shown its superiority over the many so-called kidney cures, now being loudly advertised, in instances innu- merable.

WONDERFUL CURE BY
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Last year at this time I suffered with q tremendous itching on my back, which grew worse and worse, un- til it spread over the whole body, and only my face and hands were free. For four months or so 1 suffered the torments of the damned, and had to scratch, scratch, scratch, until l bled. At night when 1 went to bed things got worse, and l had at times to get up and scratch my body all over, until l was as sore as could be, and until 1 suffered excruciating pains. 1 did not know what it was, and resorted to number of blood purifiers, using at times also Cuticura Soap. They told me then that l was suffering from eczema. Then I made up my mind that l would also use Cuticura Oint- ment and Cuticura Resolvent. I used them according to instructions, andvery soon indeed l was greatly relieved. I continued until well, and now l am ready to recommend the Cuticura Rem edies to any one who suffers as did your obedient servant. Mrs. Mary Metzger, Sweetwater, Okla, June 2S, 1905"

DISTINGUISHED PRIEST HERE
Father y. T. Roche, of Nebraska City,
Speaks at 81. James Church

St. James church had a distin-
gnished guest on Sunday in the per-
son of the Rev. +. T. Roche, of Ne
braska City, who is one of the leaders
in the movement to raise great fund
for the support Of churches among
the poor people Of the United States.
Father Roche, who is deeply conse-
Grated to this work, spoke at all of
the masses of the church Sunday, and
left decidedly good impression.
He told of the work that is being
done by the Catholic National Charity
showing that during the past eleven
months the organization had been
instrnmentSlin building fifty churches
in different parts of the country, and
that it had furnished full support to
twenty-five priests serving IN the par
ishes among poor people. The Keno
sha church made large contribution
to the fund to carry on the work.
