KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
Richmond People Know How
To Save 1t.

Many Richmond people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these or
gans need help. Sick kidneys are re.
sponsible for vast amount of suffer

need to suffer nor to remain in dan

pains due to weak kidneys can be
quickly and permanently cured by the
use of Doan's Kidney Pills. Here is

a MYSTERY OF THE SEA.
TIE Puzzlins Beeswax of the Beaches
of Oreoon.

OF all the secrets held by the fotsam
and jetsam of many years none is
stranger than that of the beeswax of
the Oregon beaches. Long before the
white man came to the great north
west by ship or prairie schooner YES
sells from the orient had skirted the
coast. Bits of wreckage have told the
story of Chinese junks gone to pieces
on the shore. but the most curious evil
dence of this eastern traffic has been
found on the Oregon coast south OF
the Columbia river. Mr.. Clarke gives
an account of this treasure trove in his
Pioneer Days"
When Lewis and Clark made their
famous expedition they learned that
the native Indians of Oregon had for
many years found Jumps of beeswax
on the sandy shores.
Beeswax is practically indestructible
in water, but these pieces had pounded
in the surf until they were black and
battered almost beyond recognition.
In 1914 one Henry, engaged in the
fur trade. wrote an account of finding
masses of this wax. The pieces were
scattered over a wide stretch of coast
anu were loW IUNtIcti, HOW uHIONeIeu,
by the blowing sand. Some of the
Jumps were softened into all shapes
and sizes by the heat of the sun and
bleached nearly white. Others were
square and stamped with strange char
acters.
In 1885 Mr.. Howell, walking on the
beach, saw something exposed in the
sand. 1t proved to be the corner OF
some large squares of beeswax weigh
ing several tons. Many smaller blocks
were also found. all bearing the stamp
ed letters 81 II So Besides the squares
of wax, quantities of large candles
were discovered. In looking up the
matter it was learned that as far back
as records ran these tapers had been
found with the wax on to, shore
Of course the explanation may be
that some oriental ship bearing church
supplies for a mission farther south
went to pieces on the Oregon coast
many, many years ago, but what
would a ship bound for Mexico or
South America be doing so far north,
and what use could any mission have
for such an enormous quantity of wax?

Balm COMPLETES THE
LOCAL LECTURE COURSE
Was Greeted by a Large Aud
fence at Coliseum.
FINANCES ARE UNCERTAIN.

A large crowd greeted Col. George
w. Balm at the Coliseum Tuesday night
in the closing number of the Popular
Lecture course and those attending
were highly pleased with the wit, log
ic, humor and pathos which charac-
teriZed his address. 1t was master
piece of eloquence and given in his
characteristic rapid fire style of speak
ing. From the very start he held his
large audience spellbound with his ora
tory. 1t was not that sort of oratory
which abounds in beautiful words and
figures of speech and lacks a grain of
good common sense, but these quail
ties prevailed throughout
Col. Balm took for his subject
Among the Masses or Traits of HUI
man Character"
The hackers of the lecture course are
not in position to state as yet just
where they stand as far as finances are
but it is understood from
good authority that the receipts will
meet expenses. Up until Tuesday
night the course was loser, but some
extra receipts were taken in then
Several engagements have been inter
fered with this season and this has put
the local hackers at a disadvantage.

LITERARY IMPOSTORS.
Many Clever Writers Who Have De.
ceived the World

Clever literary impostors who have
deceived the world are numerous
GamClli Carrieri, a Neapolitan gentle
man and scholar, while confined to his
room for long period of years by i'll
ness amused himself by writing an ac-
count of an imaginary voyage round
the world. When the volume was pub
lished, it was taken as a fact even by
learned people.
The detailed account of a trip to
China which is credited to Du HaIdc
is another literary hoax. The author
had never seen China and had been
sufficiently clever to compile the work
solely from the memoirs of Chinese
missionaries
1t is remarkable, though no less a
fact that "Gulliver's Travels" was
thought to be a true narrative when it
first appeared, and the famous story OF
Damberger's travels was likewise a
hoax.
Varillas, the French historian, enjoy
ed wide reputation as a chronicler of
events, but later it was discovered that
his works were purely fakes. The vol
umes of this writer resemble those of
Gregorio Reti, who, in order to keep
himself from starving, appended the
most unheard of incidents to English
history as it was known.
One of the most daring impostures
on record IS that of Joseph Vella Of
Sicily. He said that he discovered sew
enteen Of the lost books of Livy in
Arabic. He then set to work and
wrote a translation from his fancy,
which was printed. After his death
the fraud was discovered. Before his
death. however, he fell under suspi-
cion and was condemned to imprison-
ment
There are countless cases of authors
selling their names TO be put on works
they have never read. Sir John Hill
once contracted to translate a Dutch
book. After the agreement he remem-
bered that he did not know word of
Dutch He then bargained with an
other translator to do the work for
half the price he was to receive.

ALASKA LEGISLATION

Speaking eii Representative Humph- rsys, and his ssrk as the last sssssen of congress, the sssssls Timss says: "Hs passed through shs house the following bisik rsIns.vs to Alasts: Aissks ssls.-fhis biii provided that hereafter all Alaska appeals should be heard as San Francisco, Portland or Seattle, ss tho court below might deter. mine. At present, under @ rule of the circuit court, all appeals from Alaska srs heard at San Francisco. This places large additional expense upon Alaskan litigants and encourages litigation in AL sska because of the cost and delay in reaching c final decision of any cause. The present rule of ths court works very much to the advantage of the corpora. tions against the hsigant without money.
