JAP YOUTH ON Scholastic.
VIII Get Thorough Training on an
American Boat.

$ The first japanese youth to be ad-
mitted to the crew of the schoolship
st. Mary's is Katzern Artyoshi. Art
yoshi, who is II years old, has been
in the revenue cutter service on the
Pacific for the last three years.
AS it is necessary for all foreigners
who wish to become members of the
scholarships crew to have guardian.
Artyoshi was forced to get one before
he could be admitted to the crew. He
succeeded IN getting Capt. Osborn to
act in that capacity. Capt. Osborn
will coach the boy along and help him
over the hard points in his lessons.
Artyoshi has not made up his mind
yet whether he will remain in this
country or go home to Japan after he
has been graduated from the school
ship. A term. on the schoolship fits
a boy for service in the merchant ma
rine. Artyoshi says he likes the
United States and may stay here, but
IL japan ever goes to war he will re
turn home quickly as possible to take
part in it.

ELEVEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Hands Cracked and Bleeding-Nail
Came Off of Finger-Cuticura Rem
edies Brought Prompt Relief.

Il had eczema on my hands for
about eleven years. The hands crack
ed open in many places and bled. One
of my fingers was so bad that the
nail came off. had often heard of
cures by the Cuticura Remedies, but
had no confidence in them as l had
tried so many remedies, and they all
had failed to cure me. had seen
three doctors, but got no relief. Final
ly my husband said that we would
try the Cuticura Remedies, SO we got
a cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of
Cuticura Ointment, and two bottles
of Cuticura Resolvent Pills. OF course
/ keep Cuticura Soap all the time for
my hands, but the one cake of Soap
and half box of Cuticura Ointment
cured them. 1t is surely blessing
for me to have my hands well, and I
am very proud of having tried Cuti-
cura Remedies, and recommend them
to all suffering with eczema. Mrs.

Keep Your Blood Pure.

No one can be happy, light-hearted
and healthy with body full of blood
that cannot do it's duty to every part
because of its impurity; therefore, the
first and most important work in hand
is to purify the blood so that every
organ will get the full benefit of a
healthy circulation. There is no rem
edy so good as that old family rem
edy, Brandreth's Pills. Each pill con-
tains one grain of the solid extract of
sarsaparilla blended with two grains
of combination of pure and mild
vegetable products, making it blood
purifier unexcelled in character. One
or two taken every night for awhile
will produce surprising results.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

peru Claims kurok1.

Gen. Kuroh, the famous Japanese
soldier, has been variously described
as of Polish, Russian and German ex-
traction. Another interesting chap
ter has been added to this genealogical
symposium by an official publication
in the Official Gazette, of Lima, Peru,
which makes the claim, and submits
a plausible statement of facts to prove
it, that Kuroki's father was Peruvian
patriot whose name was Transito
Charroqui. 1t is also declared that
the generals father was descendant
of the Incas, who themselves are be-
lieved to have been descendants of an
Asiatic race, so Kuroki is an atavism
and has come into his own in the land
of his fathers.

THE PROGRESS OF THE CANA.
DIAN WEST.
Nearly 100000 Of an Increase In Cana
da's immigration In 1906.

The progress OF new country can
not be better ascertained than by not.
Ing the increase of railroad mileage In
its transportation system. and, judged
by this standard, the Canadian West
leads all the countries in the world
during the current year. Thirty years
ago there was not one hundred miles
OF railroad west of the Great Lakes,
and very little prospect of a trans
continental route for many years to
come, but by the end of 1886 the
Canadian aciflc Railway was within
measurable distance of completion,
and last year-twenty years later
over 5000 miles of railroad traversed
the provinces of Manitoba, Sas-
-katchewan and Alberta.
In the past year the work Of rail
road construction has been vigorously
prosecuted, and by the end of 1906,
some 5000 miles Of completed railroad
has been added, making total of
fully 1900 miles in the three great
grain producing provinces Of Canada.
Such an increase in the transportation
facilities of the country Is bound to
make good times not only in the dis
tricts where the railroads are being
built, but throughout the entire west.
Allowing $4,000 mile for construc-
ton, the sum of $100,O00,000 will be
put in circulation, and this in itself
should cause good times to prevail in
land where work is plentiful, wages
are high, and the cost of living is mod
crate.
But the building Of new railroads
through Western Canada means
greater benefit to the country than
merely the money put in circulation
by the cost Of construction. Addition
al railway building means the opening
of new agricultural districts and an
additional area under crops; largely
increased output of grain to foreign
markets with consequent financial re-
turns; the erection of elevators and
the growth of villages, towns and cit
les; and everything else that makes
for the progress of national life, and
the opening up of additional thousands
of free homesteads, so extensively adj
vertised by the Canadian government
agent, whose address appears else
where.
1t was stated on the floor of the
Canadian Parliament recently by a
prominent representative that ten
years from now would see the bulk of
the population Of Canada residing
west of the Great Lakes, and If the
work of railway building during the.
present year is any criterion, the
prophecy made by the Canadian states
man may be easily fulfilled inside of
The time stated During the present
year no less than $4,000 persons have
found homes in the Canadian west,
If whom 57,796 were Americans who

his new West, and have decided to

Horses sim In Demand.

Happily the horse has faculty for
upsetting the gloomy predictions that
he is fated to be put out of business
by the automobile. The horse business
has kept right on developing in spite
of the fact that the automobile indus
try has been engaged in similar On
dertaking. The demand for horses Is
still great. The supply Of sorae
classes of them is inadequate. The
prices are high. The automobile may
scare the horse into the ditch, but
1t isn't likely to crowd him to the wall.
There will always be a field for the
horse, as there will always be field
for the omobile.-Hartford Times.

Monarchs a. LInaulsts.

Monarchs must know more than one
language. King Edward, who trav.
eled so much, speaks French better
than some Frenchmen, and also Ger
man. The czar of Russia speaks
French as we'll as his native tongue
and knows the numerous dialects.
Emperor. William of Germany speaks
French and English correctly, and is
also well versed in Latin. The king
of Spain, the youngest of all, speaks
German with ease and also French
and English. Because of his marriage
he now practices the latter. The king
of Portugal speaks French, English,

Italy is master of French and Ger
man and is also well versed ip the va
rious Italian dialects.

No better practical proof that coffee
is drug can be required than to note
how the nerves become unstrung in
women who habitually drink it.

continually drugged with coffee and
tea--they both contain the drug
caffeine. Ask your doctor.

STRIKER PLEADS GUILTY
August Boussetol Admits Disturbing
Peace and Is Fined S1o

August Boussetol, a striking car
man who was arrested in Valencia
street on Wednesday by Policemen
Cooney and Harper for shouting insults
at the motorman and conductor of q
car, pleaded guilty before Police Judge
Weller yesterday and was sentenced to
pay a fine of SO, with the alternative
of 10 days in Jail. Attorney T. NJ
O'Connor, representing the United Rail-
roads, suggested to the judge that the
$500 offered by the carmen's union for
the arrest and conviction OF any MEM
ber Of the union causing a disturbance
should be turned over to the police de-
partment to secure adequate police pro-
lection from the union pickets en-
camped around the carbarns of the
company. This, he said, would greatly
add to the peace and quiet of the city.
John Braney's bail OF $40 was for
feited by Police Judge Cabaniss, the
defendant failing to appear to answer
to a charge of battery. The bail Of $5
of William r. Metcalfe, charged with
battery, was also forfeited. Tony Dez-
erillo and John Dezerillo were each
fined IS for disturbing the peace.
Orchette Rodolfo. a teamster, was
tried before a jury in Judge Cabaniss'
court on a charge of battery and the
jury disagreed. 1t stood eight for con-
viction and four for acquittal. The
foreman submitted two verdicts, that
of the majority for conviction and of
the minority for acquittal. Rodolfo
will be tried again. On the afternoon
OF May z. it Is alleged, he threw a rock
at Mounted Policeman Mann. He was
charged with assault with a deadly
weapon, but when Mann said that it
was not the rock thrown by Rodolfo
that hit him the charge was changed to
battery.
