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 a 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 a century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

TRIUMPH FOR MRS. LETTER.
Well-Deserved Stumbling Administered
to Titled Neighbor.

A Washington friend of Mrs. Levi
Letter has been telling how that capa-
bic woman held her own among the
lords and dukes in Scotland, where
she rented an ancestral palace for the
summer. Mrs. Letter was returning
the call of much betitled neighbor.
when she was shown through the
premises. The kitchen garden was
particularly attractive, and she adj
mired the vegetables and small fruits,
and when her host said that he would
send basket to her carriage she
gladly acqulesced
A few days after the same lord
called over the phone and asked if
she would have other vegetables and
fruits, and not liking to refuse the
courtesy of live lord, she assented.
This continued for a month or more,
when one day she received a bill from
my lords steward which made her
open her eyes. She had been charged
a good round sum for every article
which had been sent.
Mrs. Letter paid the bill, but imme-
diately after she called up her thrifty
neighbor, insisted on speaking to him
personally, and she asked sweetly
how he was selling garden stuff, be-
cause if his prices were exorbitant she
would send to the market in the flu,

RothschiIds Never Prosecute.

While the Bank of England makes
1t point never under any circum-
stances to relinquish the prosecution
of those who have defrauded it in the
slightest degree, being willing, if need
be, to spend thousands of pounds to
capture and prosecute people who
have robbed it Of even few shillings,
the Rothschilds make it rule never
to appeal to the courts or to the police
In such matters. OF course. they are,
like every other banker. occasionally
the victims of dishonesty, but neither
the police nor the public ever hear
about the matter. This has always
been principle of the heads of the
house. who take the ground that it is
better to bear the loss in silence than
to disturb popular confidence in the
safety of the concern by allowing it
to be seen that its treasures are not
adequately safeguarded.

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


i 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. 1 had often heard of
cures by the Cuticura Remedies. but
had no confidence in them as | had
tried so many remedies, and they all
had failed to cure me. l had seen
three doctors, but got no relief. Final
ly my husband said that we would
try the Cuticura Remedies, so we got
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
am very proud of having tried Cuti-
cura Remedies, and recommend them
to all suffering with eczema. Mrs.

JAP YOUTH ON scHooLsHIP.
Will Get Thorough Training on an
American Boat.

The first Japanese youth to be adj
mitted to the crew of the schoolshlp
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 a 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
ii Japan ever goes to war he viii re-
turn home quickly as possible to take
part in it.

To Detect Counterfeit Notes.

81 will give you a pointed or two
about .counterfeits and good United
States notes and certificates, said a
treasury department chief of a divi-
sion, which may be found handy for
reference from time to time.
"All United States notes are printed
in sheets of four notes of each denom-
nation on each sheet. Each note is
lettered in its respective order, in the
upper and lower corners diagonally
opposite. A, B, c and D, and we have
this system for numbering our notes:
All numbers, on being divided by
and leaving l for a remainder, have
the check letter a; remainder, e;
3 remainder. c.: even numbers, or
with no remainder. d. Any United
States note the number of which can
be divided by four without showing
the above result is counterfeit, and
while this rule is not infallible in all
instances, it will be. found of service
in the detection of counterfeits."

STRANGELY Mounted

The strangest military body in the
world is band of cavalry at Saint de
Moorvay, province on the east coast
OF Africa, which is under the rule of
the French governor general at NADIA

military operations on oxen. The ami

they move with surprising rapidity.

Peru Claims KurokI.

Gen. Kuroki, 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 a Peruvian
patriot whose name was Transito
Charroqui. It 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.

Horses Still In Demand.

has kept right on developing in spite
of the fact that the automobile indus
try has been engaged in. similar IN
dertaking. The demand for horses is
still great. The supply of some
classes of them is inadequate. The
prices are high. The automobile may
scare the horse into the ditch, but

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 trans
continental route for many years to
come, but by the end of 1885 the
Canadian Pacific 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
TTicts where the railroads are being
Quilt, but throughout the entire west.
Allowing 100000 a mile for construc-
ton, the sum of $1O0,000,00O will be
should cause good times to prevail in
4 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; a 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, WuOSS dQOTSSS appears SlS0-
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 galway 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 1S9 ,064 persons have
found homes in the Canadian west,
of whom 57,796 were Americans who
have seen the great possibilities of
this new West, and have decided to
cast~in their lot with it. Certainly,
our neighbor north of the 49th parallel
IS making great record, and deserves
the success that appears to be coming

>Washinqton,s Death Rate

1t is a convincing reply that the
district commissioners made to the
charge that Washington is the most
unhealthy city in the country. The
death rate of Washington is shown
to be lower than that of Augusta, Me-;
Atlanta, Ga; Annapolis, Nd; Lynch
burg, Va; Key West. Fla; Jackson
vile, Fla; Mobile, Ala; Savannah,
Ga; Saratoga, n. Y; San Antonio,
Tex; San Francisco, CAL; Whining
ton, N. c.; Troy, n. Y; Richmond,
Va, and San Diego. Cal The death
rate of Washington is essentially the
same as that of Memphis, the city in
which the charge against Washington
was given publication.
The death rate in Washington is
somewhat higher than in a number of
large cities because of the high death
rate among the colored population.
There are more colored people in
Washington than in any other city in
the United States-more than in New
Orleans, the metropolis of the black
belt.
