Keen Your Blood Pure.

No one can be happy, nght-hearted and healthy with body full of blood that cannot do it's duty to every part because of it's 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.
 Brandreths Pills have been in use for over century, and are for sale everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

JAP YOUTH ON sc4ooLsHIp.
Will Get Thorough Training on an
 American Boat.

The first Japanese youth to be ad- mitted to the crew of the schoolshlp St. Mary's is Katzern Artyoshi Art yoshi, who is r 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 schoolships 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 if Japan ever goes to war he will re- turn home quickly as possible to take part in it.

ELEVEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Came Off of Finger-Cuticura Rem edies Brought Prompt Relief.

a''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. I had often heard of cures by the Cuticura Remedies. but had no confidence in them as I had tried so many remedies, and they all had failed to cure me. 1 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 I keep Cuticura Soap all the time for my hands, but the one cake of Soap and half a box of Cuticura Ointment cured them. It 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. Eliza A. Wiley, R. F. D.

Prominent on Lecture Platform.

Senator Tillman probably earns more money every year on the lecture platform than any other American who talks to the public for pay. From an authoritative source the statement comes that the South Carolinian's net proceeds thus far this year from his lecture tour are $25,000. Senator Till man is paid from $250 2o $500 a lee ture and he is constantly in demand. His season is not confined to the sum- mery Chautauqua course and he fills nearly as many dates in the winter as at any other time of the year. In the last four years it is said that he has laid aside over $60000 from his lecture receipts. Henry Watterson perhaps comes next in the matter of earnings on the platform. Champ Clark, of Missouri, ranks high as a popular favorite and makes about twice as much as a lecturer as his con- gressional salary.

oDELL oREYED HIS FATHER.
Emphatic Message That Broke Up
 Conference of Politicians.

Four years ago, when ex-Gov. Odell, of New York, was coming up for a re- nomination at the convention in Sara toga, there was plan to put man on the ticket with him for lieutenant gov ernor to whom Odell objected strongly.
 The governors father, SS years old, a deacon in the church and very strict in religious matters, was in Saratoga.
 There was a conference at one of the hotel cottages that lasted until late in the morning. The other lead CTS were trying to force Odell to take the obnoxious man.
 About two o'clock Odell's father, who had heard what was going on, stalked angrily over to the cottage and rapped on the door. Frank Platt, son of Senator Platt, came to the door.
 ''Well?" said Platt sharply.
 q want to see my son." demanded Odell.
 The governor came to the door.
 What is it, father?" he asked
 Ben" said the old deacon, tell them to go to -!"
 'Yes, father" replied the governor obediently, and he went back and did just that.-Saturday Evening Post.

MONKS FIRST PLAYED DoMlNoEs
Drigia of Game That Is Popular the
 World Over.

With regard to the game of dom 4noes there is very interesting story connected with it's origin. It gnns thus: There were two monks who had been committed to the pen alty of a long seclusion and were con deraned to keep absolute silence. To relieve the monotony they played a game by showing each other small fiat stones marked with black dots. By a well-understood arrangement, the monk whose hand was used at first informed the other player by repeating in an undertone the first ilne of the Nesper hymn, "Cantate Domino" (Sing unto the Lord). In lime the monks completed the set of stones and formulated the rules of the game, so that by the time they were free to come out from their pun ishment they had found the game so interesting that on teaching it to the other members of the monastery it became favorite and lawful pastime. 1t soon became popular all through Italy and from there extended to the whole world. The first line of the yes per hymn which the monks had used as slgnal was reduced to the word domino, and the name has stuck to the game ever since.

Horses Still 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 un- 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 it isn't likely to crowd him to the wall. There will always be a field for the horse, as there will always be a field for the tomobile.-Hartford Times,

HAD THE ROBBERS SYMPATHY.
chvalrous Brigand Commiserated
 Woman's Life Partner.

Lancia, the noted Italian automo- bilist, was asked the other day if he did not think motor racing too dan gerous.
 "Dangerous-yes," M Lancia re- piled. Too dangerous-no For noth- ing that benefits mankind-and au- tomobiles benefit mankind inexpressi- bly-is too dangerous for a man to undertake.
 q have a good deal of contempt for men who are not brave to the point of rashness. I am like high wayman who held up a gasoline run about on the outskirts of Rome.
 This highwayman stopped the run about with a shot in the air. Then he ran forth from the tomb that had concealed him-the hold-up happened on the Appian Way-and found, to his surprise, only a woman in the little car.
 Where, madam, is your husband?" he demanded, sternly and suspiciously.
 He's under the seat she an swered, flushing.
 Then said the highwayman, I won't take nothing. It's bad enough to have a husband like that without being robbed into the bargain.
