Stuart, Iowa, Nov. 1.

Sou0Ao, 1OWd, NOS. L.
From the time my son Dan
iel was born mis- eyes watered
continually flowing over his
cheeks and blurring his sight.
When out of doors in the
winter his cheeks would near
ly freeze and it was almost
impossible for him to attend
school or do anything that
required much use of the eyes
1 wanted to have his eyes
cured long before did, but
think the eye too delicate an
organ to trust everybody with
treating it. DIR. Weber had
SO successfully treated so
many in my neighborhood
that l decided to have him
treat Daniels eyes. DR.
Weber examined them and
found he had been born with
out tear ducts and that he
would have to form artificial
ones This looked almost
impossible to me, but assur-
ing me that he would not in
jure the sight, l had the DR..
proceed. So successful was
he that the trouble is now
entirely cured and the tears
flow into the new ducts as
we'll as any natural ones and
his eyes do not water even in
the coolest weather.
Yours respectfully.

Deed of n Gallant Nobody.

It Ia not always the information car
ried by the recognized aids-de-camp to
and from the commanding officer in
battle which is of highest value. There
was a supreme moment during the bat
tie OF Waterloo when the Duke Of
Wellington was left absolutely alone,
and that not when he was running the
risk Of capture by sailing through the
enemy's lines. II simply meant that
every gailoper had gone his way, each
with his message. At this moment
stranger rode up TO the duke and quiet
ly asked, Can I be of any use, sirr'
The duke took one glance at him and
unhesitatingly answered, Yes, take
this pencil note to the commanding Of
ficer," pointing TO regiment In the
heat of the battle. The stranger took
the note and galloped away with 1t
through the thick Of the fight. He de-
livered 1t, but what happened to him
no man knows. The duke always de-
clared that to be one of the most gal.
liant deeds that had ever come under
his notice. 1t was done without pros
pect Of acknowledgment or reward,

His Attsmpt Was Void.

They had been having a discussion
concerning the necessity or otherwise
Of purchasing new silk dress In order
to be on level with the De Moneys
next door. Banks had vetoed the pur-
chase on the ground of extravaganza
and want of funds, and his wife was
much put out.
Dinner ready, my dear?" he asked
In his most conciliatory manner. Her
face had been like n stale thunder
storm ever since the disagreement, and
Banks wanted to change 1t.
"Yes," answered Mrs. d. shortly.
Must try again." said Banks to him
self. Then aloud: "Ah, I'm glad Of
that, my love. have what the poets
would call 'an aching void, Sarah"
"You often suffer from headache"
she returned In a cutting tone.
Banks drew his chair up to the table
with unnecessary noise and refrained
from further attempts at Cancellation
for the rest of the day.--Pearson's

learned from an eyewitness some
thing about Spitzbergen, that desert
arctic island 600 miles north of the
North cape of Norway and within TOO
miles of the north pole: frost desolat-

tudes. Spltzbergen Is the only spot of
earth that Is positively known as No
Mans land. 1t is the possession of

In Russia 1t was the common belief
up to the time Of Peter the Great that
beardless men were also soulless and
that man who purposely admitted
having his beard marred could never
enter heaven. The great Peter above
referred to ordered his heathens to
"shave up" so as to appear more civil
llzed, and when they refused to comply
with his edct he fined the wealthy and
middle classes 100 rubles for each
beard that was permitted to grow and
each peasant and laborer kopeck for
the same privilege. Finally the priests
were appealed to, and they Informed
their parlshioners that unless they sub
mitted to having their boards shaved
they need not expect that st. Nicholas,
the gatekeeper of heaven, would be
able to distinguish them from the
bearded Turks. That had the desired
effect.

DEAD SEA BATHING.

IL Must Be Horrible Torture, Accord
Ing to This Account.
In an article on bathing In the Dead
sea clergyman who has made the ex-
pertinent says: mo sooner has one
plunged into the water than one Is
whipped off ones feet and goes bob
blng helplessly about, like a wretched
cork. In the effort to regain ones foot
Ing and get back to shore ones feet
and shlns are barked by the Jagged
stones and pebbles, and when at length
one does emerge from Its treacherous
bosom, with the lower limbs bleeding
and torn, one becomes aware of hor-
rible tingllng and burning sensation In
eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth and almost
every pore Of the skin from the brine
and bitumen which have penetrated
everywhere. Unless great care is tax
en- the bather In the Dead sea Is liable
to an eruption, which breaks out all
over the body and which Is commonly
known as the Dead sea RASH The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to the river Jor-
dan and to take second plunge there
In. The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectually
remove the salt that has incrusted the
body."-New York Tribune.

Both cinnamon and cassia contain

There are cinnamon and cassia topers

VOICES FROM THE SEA.
Common Phrases That Have Had Their
Origin Aboard Ship.

Origin Aboard Ship.
II is remarkable what a number of
common expressions In use every day
come to us from the sea. You grumble
at a third party for Showing in his
oar" in a conversation. A friend In
quires after your health. "0h, first
rate. thanksI' you reply, using term
derived from the days Of old wooden
line Of battle ships. Probably each of
us knows Of some one who is sailing
under false colors."
Politicians are not infrequently
thrown overheard" by their party
when they disappoint expectations. We
cali tall buildings "skyscrapers," n
term originally purely nautical. "Close
quarters" is a very common express
sion, which, like first rate" dates
from the time of wooden fighting
ships. The quarters" were protec-
tions erected along the bulwarks be-
hind which sailors could lie low and
which were used to help to repel
boarders.
There are others, too-"half seas
over" for instance, and thigh and
dry" Honest men are said to be
"aboveboard." We call n good for
nothing man "derelIct," and we urge
people to go "full speed ahead" on all
occasions when we mean there is need
for haste,

Appreciate the Worth of Sleep.

The amount Of sleep required by q
person can be determined better by
the effects obtained than by the num-
ber Of hours consumed, for 1t differs
greatly with age and the condition Of
health. Few fallacies are more dan
gerous than that which Is often adopt
cd by busy people, more especially by
those engaged in scientific or other
forms Of intellectual work, when they
assume that the duration of sleep is
largely a matter of convenience. The
harmfulness of deficient sleep may not
reveal itself until the age Of decline
has been reached, but 1t will surely
hasten the decline.
