HOMEMADE cATARRH CURE.
Sufferers Should Make This Up and
Try 1t Anyway.

Any one can mix right at home the
best remedy of it's kind known. The
name Cyclone" is given to the fol-
lowing prescription, it is supposed, be-
cause of it's promptness in driving
from the blood and system every YES
tige of catarrhal poison, relieving this
foul and dread disease, no matter
where located. To prepare the mix
ture: Get from any good pharmacy
one half-ounce Fluid Extract Dande-
lion, one ounce Compound Kargon and
three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsa-
parilla. Shake we'll and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime.
This is harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has a peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues of the Kidneys,
assisting them to filter and strain
from the blood and system all ca
tarrhal poisons, which, If not eradi-
Gated. are absorbed by the mucous
membrane, and an open sore or ca
tarrh is the result.
Prepare some and try it, as it is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh
specialist of national reputation.

Knew Him at Once.

There are other sure ways of bring
ing man to mind besides mentioning
his name. Among the candidates who
were sent from Princeton to a Phila.
delphia church was one young man
whose language was of the sort which
dazzles and delights the younger men,
bers of congregation, and sometimes
pleases the elders as we'll.
In this case the committee was be-
sieged to ask for the young man again
and they consented, but unfortunately
the man to whose lot it fell to write
the letter had forgotten the candi-
dates name. Nothing daunted, he
wrote to one of the seminary profess
sors:
'Please send us that foweret,
streamlet, rivulet, cloudlet and moon
beam young man again. We've for
gotten his name, but we've no doubt
you'll recognize him"
I'VE do" wrote the professor, and
the desired candidate was sent, and
subsequently was called to the parish.

BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
Cry Until Tired out-Speedy
Cure by Cuticura.

"My baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face
and feet. Her feet seemed to irritate
her most, especially nights. They
would cause her to be broken in her
rest, and sometimes she would cry
until she was tired out. l had always
used Cuticura Soap myself, and had
heard of SO many cures by the Cuti-
cura Remedies that l thought would
give them trial. The Improvement
was noticeable in a few hours, and
before ! had used one box of the Gu
ticura Ointment her feet were we'll
and have never troubled her since.
also used it to remove what is known
as cradle cap" from her head, and
it worked like a charm, as it
cleansed and healed the scalp at the
same time. Now 1 keep Cuticura
Ointment on hand in case of any
little rash or insect bites, as it lakes
out the Inflammation at once Per-
haps this may be the means OF help
ing other suffering babies. Mrs. Hat

ART OF KEEPING YOUNG.
Preservation Of Youth Largely Matter
of Temperament.

Everybody realizes that there is an
art IN keeping young, but only few
people know that it does not require
an inborn talent. They will say to
you, "Oh, of course, Mrs. Smith looks
young-doesn't she come of a family
who stay young?"-just as If the art
Of keeping young were something that
could be inherited.
1t is something that every woman
desires, of course, both for the sake of
gratifying her vanity and of preserv-
ing her health. She knows that If
she can solve the secret she will not
only enjoy life and the reflection her
mirror throws back to her, but that
she will be a source of envy to her
less fortunate sisters, and what wom-
an did not enjoy the latter sensation
most keenly?
don't know whether you are one
of the unfOrtunates, but if you are,
you may cheer up right away, for it
can be done. / knew a woman once
who, although past 60, had not a gray
hair in her head, who had eyes as
bright as a girl, and who walked with
the same springy, elastic gait that her
daughter had. Her skin was as
smooth and as pink as baby's, and
her arms and hands as rounded aud
as dimpled as her granddaughter's
Her throat was little wrinkled, but
when she was dressed for the street
you would have sworn she was not a
day over 35.
In her case / think the secret was
that she had a trick of throwing off
trouble, and of always looking on the
bright side of things. She had had
more than her share of trouble, too,
for she had lost five children, and two
of the remaining four had not turned
out well. Besides that, her husband
had failed in business, thus reducing
her from luxury to position of COM
parative poverty.
But she kept her bright eyes and
her girlish smile, her pink skin and
her brown hair to the very last. In
stead of reckoning up how much
trouble She had, and how badly fate
had treated her, she counted up her
blessings, and noted how much more
harshly fate had treated her neigh
bors, says a writer in the Los An.
geles Herald. She sympathized with
other peoples troubles rather than
her own, and thus kept her mind so
busy that she had no time for self
pity. You may note right here that
self-pity is one of the greatest ene-
mics to youth that was ever known.
Another is worry. Now, worry is
ridiculous on the very face of it, for it
was never known to control nor to re-
veal the future yet, and as it cannot
do either of these things, what is the
use of letting it spoil your complex
ion?
Three smiles day, and as many
in between meals as you can get in,
followed at night by vigorous mas
sage with cold cream, and there you
are. If you grow old on that pre-
scription, you don't deserve to stay
young, that's all.

To Make Stones STRONGER.

Almost everybody knows the rule
of the masons that stone used in
building should be so placed that it
will lie as it lay in it's natural bed
when quarried. But Francis w. Hoyt,
in the Engineering News, says that
this familiar rule needs in many cases
to be supplemented with other precau-
tions. There are three planes of frac-
ture known to quarrymen. The rift"
is the direction in which the stone
splits most easily; the grain" that
which is next easiest; the head" that
which offers the greatest resistance.
In a paving block the two sides repre-
sent the rift fracture, the top and
bottom the grain and the ends the
head. But in quarry the natural
bed is sometimes considerably inclined
to the plane of the rqift; hence the
lmperfecrion of the ordinary rule for
Dlacing the stone in building.

SOME NEW FRENCH KNIGHTS.
Queen Of Holland Has Agreed to Rec
ognizo Vatican Titles.

Among the lucrative sources of rev.
enue of the pope before the separa-
ton of church and state in France was
the toll or tax on titles of nobility
and decorations. Since the rupture
the French government no longer rec
ognizes the ennobling titles and dec
orations Of the holy father. To have
the right to wear the Vatican ribbon,
or to be called count, it was necessary
to obtain confirmation of title. This
gave much perplexity to the candi-
dates.
The question has just been settled.
Queen Wilhelmina has consented to
validate such titles and distinctions.
The result has been an amusing pill
grimage to The Hague-and also in
an increase In the price of these pom
tsdcal favors.
In the last few weeks the French
knights Of the Golden Spur, of the
Sfoly Sepulcher, of Christ, of Gregory
tie Great. of Plus TX. have greatly in.

THE USEFUL PHONE
BY NO MEANS USED EXCLUSIVE.
LY FOR BUSINESS.
One Instance Where Wire Conveyed
the Voice of consclence-How
Farmer Saved Long Trip
After His Cows.

A group of telephone men were tell
ing telephone stories the other day.
"A couple of young lawyers were
just shutting up shop to go home one
evening not long ago." said one. TT
was in big building, and as it was
about nine o'clock, nearly all the win
dows were dark. One window across
the alley, however, was light, and the
curtain partly up, and just after they
had turned off their own lights the
two young fellows saw a man who
was debating in this room reach over
and kiss the stenographer. They
knew the mans name, that is, they
knew the name lettered on his win
dow; so they looked him up in the
elephone book and one kept watch at
the window, while the other rang
him up.
There were signs of perturbation
In the room across the way when the
bell rang. When he finally answered,
the young fellow at the phone said:
Stop kissing that girl
'Who-who-who are your came
quavering, suffering voice over the
phone.
I am the voice of your conscience,
said the lawyer, and silently hung up
the receiver"
"The marvellous extension of the
rural telephone system out west" said
western man. has introduced an
element of variety and interest into
the lives of the farmers that can hard
ly be computed. In some sections of
the great farming states the farmers
buy their own telephone exchange,
and then each man runs his own line
to his own house and has nothing to
pay thereafter, except to keep his own
line in order, and his share of the CO.
operative central office The women
on the farms, when their work is done
in the afternoon, love to go to the
phone and stand listening for hours
to everything that buzzes over the
wires. It's as good as going to see all
their friends. The only trouble is that
they get tired standing up and hold
ing the receiver to their ears, and
have to sit down and rest once in a
while.
But one day found an old lady
who had solved that problem. She
had tied the receiver to the back of
her rocking chair, and there she sat
comfortably knitting, with the phone
glued to her ear, listening to all the
telephone talk of the county"
Il can tell better one than that
about those farmers exchanges" said
another carelessly. you know they
utilize their barbed wire fences for
telephone wires. There was one en-
terprising Reuben that ran line from
his barn down to the .pasture, and at
milking time he would call up the
COWS and tell them to come up to the
house."
The other telephone men looked at
each other and then turned sadly
away.

Apart from the evidence of it's pres.
ence in the age of pile dwellings, the
earliest reference to the wolf in Switz-
erland is in a decree of Charlemagne
of about the end of the eighth CEN
tury. From this time to the latter
part of the fourteenth century the rec
ords are exceedingly scanty, but dur
ing the next tree centuries they be-
come very common and show the
strenuous fight against the marauder
which had to be maintained by the in
habitants, and the part which it play
ed in their superstitious ideas. A
striking fact is it's abundance at the
beginning OF the seventeenth century,
which is explained as resulting from
the devastation of the Thirty Years
War. With the end of that century
the period of its greatest abundance
closed, and from hence onward it be-
gins gradually to disappear, the last
wolf having been killed in Lucerne
in 1865, while the western frontier
districts continued to suffer from its
ravages until quite recent date. The
determination of the animal has only
been made possible by the introduc-
tion of modern weapons.-Georgaph

FIre Record for Last Year.

The fact that when a servant be-
comes master a cruel foe is suddenly
developed is attested by the dreadful
havoc and loss of life occasloned by
fire in the United States within the
IL months covered by a summing up
of these losses for 1906. This record
shows that nearly 1000 lives were
lost and more than $5OO,OoO, ,0e0 worth
of property was destroyed by fire dur
ing that period. In no other country
in the world is the. fire loss, in bulk
or pro rata, anywhere near our own.
Last year, owing to the devastating
fire that followed the earthquake in
San Francisco, this loss was in great
excess of the average, but the average
for some years past has been $780,
100000 a year.
