There is nothing more curious con-

watch the doings of the salmon family
in Alaska" said Frank Watson of that
territory.
The most singular thing of all is
that after the females deposit their
spawn their earthly career terminates,
and have seen the bottoms of creeks
covered with their dead bodies. They
give birth to thousands of their kind
and Immediately die. The young ones
are then taken care of by the male sal
mon, and it is well known fact that
in three years from their birth the off
spring reappear on the very ground
of their origin. There are four va
rieties of this superb fish which make
their appearance in regular order of
succession.
In the spring the first to arrive is
the magnificent king salmon, which
weighs all the way from Is to 80
pounds. l have myself caught one
weighing 50 pounds About June l
comes the sockey, or red salmon,
which visits our shores in enormous
numbers and which is the common
canning variety A little later ap-
pears the log salmon. which only the
Indians will eat, and finally, in August
and September, the beautiful silver
salmon arrives, the prettiest fish in all
the world and one of the most palat-
able

CRIED EASILY.
Nervous Woman Stopped Coffee and

No better practical proof that coffee
is a drug can be required than to note
how the nerves become unstrung in
women who habitually drink it.

continually drugged with coffee and

caffeine. Ask your doctor.
An la. woman tells the old story

ness and dizziness. In the morning
upon rising l used to belch up a sour
fluid regularly.
"Often l got so nervous and miser-
able l would cry without the least rea-
son, and l noticed my eyesight was
getting poor.
After using Postum a while, OBJ

WHY TH- GAME APPEARED.
Aneodote illustrates shrewdness Of
the late President Kruger.

Not long ago a monument was un.
veiled at Pretoria over the grave of
the late Paul Kruger. The once su.
preme figure of the African republic
is now remembered more for his mis-
takes than for his achievements. Fate
dealt hardly with the old ruler who
played so great a part in the making
OF sturdy nation. Death found him
not even a citizen of the country of
which he had been president. He died
in exile, his land in subjection to a
foreigner. Imperious and domineer.
ing, he went out of life a beaten man.
Kruger possessed a Bismarckian
gift for blunt and vivid phrases.
GO back and tell your people
never never!" he said to a deputa-
tion. And now let the storm burst.
Protest! Insist What is the use?
l have the guns!"
my friends" he once began a
speech; then, perceiving some out
landers" in the audience, he added:
But you are not all friends; some
are thieves and murderers. Well
friends, thieves and murderers!"
The president was a curious mixture
of piety and shrewness. A story is
told of an incident which occurred in
his earlier days.
At one time, when game was very
scarce, he went with a party to hunt
the hartbeest. They secured the veldt
for days without a sign of their prey.
Paul Kruger announced then his pur-
pose of going into the hills to pray
for food, like a patriarch of old.
He was gone for a number of hours.
When he returned he announced that
in three days a large herd would pass
that way. The party camped. in less
than the appointed time the prophecy
was fulfilled, and much game was Sc
cured. The Boer hunters were much
struck with wonder, and dubbed
Kruger the man of prayer"
Some time after, the Kafir who ac-
companied Kruger on his expedition
Kruger, when he left the hunting par
ty, had struck out for a neighboring
Kaffir kraal, and informed the natives
that his men were starving. If they
the natives, did not discover game
in three days, he said, he would bring
his whole party over the hill and kill
every Kafir. The natives, being sore
afraid of Boer methods, all turned out
secured the region, and drove the
game to the Boer camp. Thus Kru
gers prayer" was answered.

A young man from Pittsburg went

letter The other night he stood in

him what he thought Of New York.

Keep 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.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over a century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

Peru Claims KurokI.

Cen. Kurod, 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 Kuro1i's father was a Peruvian
patriot whose name was Transito
Charroqui. It is also declared that
the generals father was a 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.

No Advance in Wisdom.

Mark Twain tells how four years
ago he was invited by the University
Of Missouri to go out there and receive
the degree of Ii. d. At the same time
he visited Hannibal his boyhood
home. Just as he was about to leave,
being accompanied to the station by a
crowd of citizens, Tom Nash, a school
fellow, came up-white headed, but
still boy. He shook hands with his
friend of many a year and nodding
toward the crowd said People of
this town are the same blamed fools

Master Of MANY LANGUAGES.

Gen. Picquart, French minister of
war, is a sort of Admiral Crichton,
for, besides a wide general cultivation,
he reads, writes and speaks Russian,
German and English and Italian. Such
knowledge of language is not common
with Frenchmen, even those of educa-
tion, but Gen. Picquart's facility is ex-
planned, perhaps, by the fact thaat he
is an Alsatian. The Alsatians have
loug been noted in France for the
readiness With which they acquire
languages.

der and Other Manufacturing
and Wholesale Business.
The great wholesale grocery house
OF the c. S. Morey Mercantile Company
In Denver gives special attention to its
coffee trade, having as fine a coffee
roasting plant as there Is in the coun-
try, with a roasting capacity of one
hundred and fifty bags of green coffee
a day. Its experiments show that in
the dry climate of Colorado coffee
should not be held too long after roast
ing, and hence all coffee is shipped as
soon as possible after it has been
roasted. The great success this firm
Is having with its high-grade package
cotfees, such as Solitaire, Yampa, Cap
itol, and many others, is due to the fact
that no expense is spared in keeping
the blends and grades uniform and al
ways up to the standard.
Their coffee expert is one of the very
best in the country and he is in
structed to buy only the best coffees re-
gardless of cost The constant and i'm
mense increase in their coffee business
shows that this fact is appreciated by
the public.
Another growing branch of it's man
ufacturing business is that of it's Soil
taire fiavoring extracts, for which an
additional story has just been COM
pleted for laboratory use. None but
the very finest of Mexican and Bour-
bon vanilla beans are used for Morey's
Solitaire Vanilla, which is aged at
least twelve months before it is
shipped and only the best oil Of
lemon that can be obtained is al
lowed in Morey's Solitaire Lemon. All
their Solitaire extracts are as good as
any made.
Morey's o. X. Baking Powder, which
will do the work of any cream tartar
powder on the market, but which is it.
self phosphate powder, is another of
the firms popular and staple produc-
tions, which is winning favor as being
quite as efficient and more wholesome
than cream tartar powders.
Grinding and packing of high-grade,
absolutely pure spices is another spe-
cialty that is bringing credit to the
firm name.
The company is also a direct impor-
ter of teas, in which it does a large
business.
The grocery part of the business is
divided into departments each under
the management of a man who has
made a study for years of the goods in
his particular line.
From one hundred to one hundred
and twenty-five men are employed all
the time, including thirty statesmen
who cover all of Colorado and parts of
Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona and
Utah regularly
The company's immense building on
Sixteenth street, near the Union depot,
on the car lines, is one of the most
notable private business buildings in
the city, and shelters an army of EN-
ployes. 1t is one of the institutions
that make Denver and stand for Colo
RADIO enterprise.
The reputation of the house is firmly
founded on the purity and genuine
character of its products, which are in
every instance fully up to the stand
ard prescribed by the pure food laws
and all goods under the Solitaire label
are guaranteed absolutely by the pack
