Hidden sins are hard to heal.
ruIaue Shops of Mexico.

The government of the federal dis
trict is considering the most practical
and lawful way to remove the pulque
shops from the central part of the City
OF Mexico.
The government has not given H.
censes to establish any new pulque
shops in the central section of the
city, and as soon as any of the jul
querias are closed on account of the
end of the contract for rent or any
other cause, the government cancels
the license. But there are some of
those shops, the owners of which have
contracts for rent covering ten, fifteen
and twenty years, and some Of them
are owners of the buildings occupied.
The government in this case can
not count on the ending of the con-
tract to close the shops, and is con-
sidering another way to remove them
from that part of the city and still re-
spect the rights of the proprietors.-

Model for Rest of the Force.

While Oil City cannot, perhaps,
boast of being a strictly cold-water
town, she can, we believe, lay claim
to having among her residents the
champion temperance man of the

Not only has he never drank any kind
of spurious or malt liquors, but he
has never allowed any tea, coffee, soup
or any kind of milk to pass his lips
since he was child. He is colored
man, was born in slavery, and because
his father frequently drank more
whisky than was good for him, he re-
solved when boy to never drink any.

The wounded owl fastened its talons
in Bohlinger's hand and put up so des-

hands were torn and scratched in a
frightful manner and he was totally
exhausted.
A physician dressed and cauterized
his wounds.

The Bright Firstborn.

They were discussing the law of en-
tail-the English law bequeathing tho
bulk of the family property to the
eldest son.
There is so per cent. of logic in
that law" said physician, "and if the
family property went to the firstborn,
whether son or daughter, the law
would contain 100 per cent. of logic.
For the first born child is practically
always the best-best in brain, in
build, in beauty, in everything.
why is this SO? 1t is because mar
ried people love one another more pro-
foundly at the beginning than after

WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found In
the Philippines.

Among the wild tribes to be found
in the Philippines are the Bogobos,
the most picturesque people in the
tropics. Their origin is unknown,
and all sorts of opinions have been
expressed concerning them. One tale
told of them is that their first ances-
tors were all poets and musicians,
and that the dislike for the practical
which is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen.
erations.
Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that given a song or
a poem to learn and they will study
and dream over it for hours, but give
the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic
and he Immediately becomes i'll and
wants to go home.
Living at Santa Cruz, in the Davao
district, is Miss Benedict, a Chicago
university woman, who is collecting
everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
1t has been found that the bead
work done by them is quite like that
of the American Indian, but there is
no other likeness in the races be-
yond that.

CELESTIAL CALAMITY AT YALE.
Scion of Royal Family Plunged on
Head in Deep Marsh Hole.

New Haven, Conn.-An information
al calamity marked the first of the
Yale geological outings, when a num-
ber of the students under the guidance
of Prof. Barrett started on an expedi-
tion to the quarries along Stony creek.
With the party was Ponson Carlos
Chu of Shanghai, scion of the royal
family of China, whose father is high
in the government life of the coun-
try.
Riding to the quarries in a freight
car, the students spent several hours.
starting back through the marshes for
a short cut to the railroad. Ponson is
one of the dandiest sports Yale has
seen in several years, and he nearly
tainted at the sight of the marsh and
looked at his new fall costume. Ac-
cepting the offer Of Arthur Mullin, of
Salem, O., to carry him across on his
bac.:, all went well until Mullin
stepped into an unseen hole to his
waist and the royal lad from China
was thrown head foremost, his head
going deep into the mud and his
princely legs sticking up in the air.
He was rescued, but his face had
changed from the Mongolian yellow to
the sambo hue Of the Ethiopian.
Ponson says geology is hard

Around Syvester's, Only Diet.

Boston.-George B. Sylvester, of
Roxbury, eats nuts and nothing else
the year round. doesn't drink tea, cof-
fee or stimulants, the only liquid that
Mr.. Sylvester drinks Is warm water
that is taken after half of his meal
of nuts is consumed.
Mr.. Sylvester is a bachelor and
lodges at 27 Montrose street, Roxbury.
He is 81 years of age, and began to
live on nuts two and half years ago.
finding it cheaper way of living, and
enjoys the best Of health since he
stopped eating other food.
Mr.. Sylvester wanted some nutri-
ment to take the place of meat, which
was harmful to him in hot weather
and didn't seem to agree with him in
winter, so he decided to live on nuts,
finding as much and more nutriment
in them than meat Peanuts, chest
nuts and all other nuts in their sea-
son are eaten by Mr.. Sylvester. The
only time he breaks his diet is Christ
mas and Thanksgiving.
"Mastication is the most important
thing in living on nuts" said Mr.. Syl-
vester to the reporter; "if the nuts
are chewed until no taste remains then
swallowed, they are the healthiest
and best thing for a man to live on
They don't make you good looking,
as you can see by me, that's why you
can't have my picture. but for a man
81 years old I'm as healthy as can be

Sylvester's looks his statement is
right.

GOAT sTARvEs HIMSELF.
Fine Mountain Specimen In Pittsburg
Refuses to Eat.

Pittsburg.-Intended as gift to the
zoo of Riverview park, Allegheny, a
fine mountain goat, brought from
British Columbia by d. c. Byers of
Sewickley, will instead, as the result
of an incident, go to the Carnegie
museum The incident was the death
of the goat.
Mr.. Byers and w. R. Scalfe re-
turned from hunting trip of sew
eral weeks in Canada. The goat,
a fine specimen, weighing more than
$50 pounds, was captured in the
Stickline river, on the border line
between Alaska and British Columbia.
1t is supposed to have been chased
into the water by bear.
The death of the goat was directly
due to starvation. He refused to
eat a bite while in captivity. On only
two or three occasions did the goat
drink any water, either. 1t was ex-
pected, however, that after his being
taken from the box in which he was
shipped to Pittsburg he would begin
eating. Instead, he SHE'D at food
more than ever.
Mr.. Byers says the goat has a fine
pair of horns and Is magnificent
specimen in every way. When he
reaches the museum and is mounted
proudly on rocky pedestal, it is ex.
pected he will attract almost as much
attention as if he were alive in zoo.

BEST EVER WRITTEN
PRESCRIPTION WHICH ANYONE
CAN EASILY MIX.
Said to Promptly Overcome Kidney
and Bladder AffIietions-shake
Simple Ingredients Well
In Bottle.

Mix the following by shaking well
In bottle, and take in teaspoonful
doses after meals and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. A prominent physician is the
authority that these simple. harmless
ingredients can be obtained at nom.
inal cost from any druggist even in
the smaller towns.
The mixture is said to cleanse and
strengthen the clogged and inactive
Kidneys, overcoming Backache, Blad-
der weakness and Urinary trouble Of
all kinds, if taken before the stage Of
Bright's disease.
Those who have tried this say it pos
itively overcomes pain in the back,
clears the urine Of sediment and regu-
lates urination, especially at night,
curing even the worst forms of blad-
der weakness.
Every man or woman here who feels
that the kidneys are not strong or act
ing in healthy manner should mix
this prescription at home and give it
a trial, as it is said to do wonders for
many persons.
The Scranton (Pa.) Times was first
to print this remarkable prescription,
in October. of 1906, since when all the
leading newspapers of New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other
cities have made many announcements
OF it to their readers.
