You might doctor the
blood forever w j t n
drugs and medicines,
but you can't purify it
that way. You've got
to find the cause and
remove it-find some
thing that will make
the kidneys purify the
blood.
Electricity is t h e
power that runs every
organ of your body.
The reason the kidneys
fail to do their work is
because they are weak
from a lack OF cleo
tricity. Electricity as
produced by Electro
Vigor will give new
vigor to the kidneys,
through the incapacity
of which the destruc-
tive uric acid is al
lowed to enter the
bloc d. 1t provides
them with the energy
which has been drain
ed from them and en-
ables them to improve
their work Of filtering
the life fluid. 1t dis

generates its own power constantly.
There is no nasty vinegar or acid to
bother with; no trouble-no odor. You
simply apply Electro-Vigor about your
waist when you retire, turn on the
current. and all night long while you
sleep this engine pumps electric life
into your nerves, muscles and vitals.

Only a Hint.

The old colored "mammy" who
had ruled the Greenough household
for more than twenty years was
known to the tradesmen and the
world in general as "Mrs. Washing
ton," although she allowed the Gree
noughs and their friends to address
her as "Aunt Euphrasia."
She had a flow of language which
has seldom been equaled, and do
lighted in it more even than in her
skill in cooking. On one occasion
Mrs. Greenough overheard Aunt
Euphrasia berating a tardy grocer's
boy.
"Whar yo' been, yo' trihin,' lazy,
destructful, %owdacious, %aggervatin',
presumptious boy, while rs been
a-waitin' and a-y'arnin' for desc yer
continental spices?" demanded
Aunt Ephrasia, her turbaned head
threatening the delinquent, who
covered before her. "Ef / hadn't
got ter put desc yer right into my
cake OATS been kept unfinished fer
yo' to go dawdlin', philanderin', So
jerin' round, I'd stop a minute and
glib yo' some idee oh my opinions
regardin' y~o'!"-Youth's Compan-
ion.

Gloves of Mary, Queen Of Scots.

The famous gloves of Mary,
queen of Scots, are still in existence.
She gave them on the day of her
execution to a gentleman of the
Dayrell family, and they still re-
main in the possession of his de-
,scendants. They are described as
being of a cool, buff colored leather,
embroidered on the gauntlet in silk
and silver wire. Pink roses, trees
in two shades of green and a bird in
flight appear upon these wonderful
gloves, and the bright red lining of
the cuffs is still as fresh and CAV as
when the unhappy queen first dom
ned them. Silk and leather gloves
were not the only kind with which
the Scottish queen was familiar, for
the poor lady had reason to remem-
Der the iron glove of Lindsey,
when he forced his way to her
chamber to demand her abdication,
grasping her shoulder so rudely as
to leave marks on it for many a day.

IDeIirium Tremens.

The familiar symptoms of deli
rum tremens, known as Snakes"
have been made the subject of study
with some interesting results. 1t
appears that what have been sup
posed to be Authorizations have a
certain sort of evidence in fact.
Certain blood vessels in the eyes
become congested and assume a
dark color. These when they ap-
pear on the %retina, which is ordi-
narily transparent, suggest to the
nervous and overweight patient
the presence of some moving, living
creature. Imagination, of course,
increases the nervousness, and final
ly the mind becomes so d~isordered
that the form of an offensive crea-
ture is suggested. AS these fancies
grow by what they feed on, it is
easy to see how creeping and crawl
ing things may fill the soul of the
victim with the most horrible SEN
sations.

WHITE CARGO.
X Looked Like Snow In the Vessels
Hold, but IL Was Not.

Looking down over the high
hatchway combing into the after
hold of a steamer discharging at an
East river wharf, a waterside stroll
Ter saw in the hold below what
seemed to be a cargo of snow-an
odd cargo for a vessel to bring.
They had already got out the
bulk of it from Immediately under
the hatchway and almost down to
the vessels floor, but all around
still arose white banks of it reaching
up almost to the vessels decks. And
half way up one of these steep snow
banks a man was at work with a
pick, dislodging masses of it to fall
to the open space at the center,
where stood men with scoop shovels,
piling this snow into great iron tip
buckets, which as fast as they were
filled we're hoisted up to be dumped
into a shoot running down over the
steamers side, this shoot emptying
into carts on the wharf.
From the steamers forward
hatch, at the same time and in like
manner, they were discharging from
the same snowy cargo, a customs
officer at each point noting the
weights of it as the stuff was hoisted
out.
1t was salt, the snowy white cargo
with which from stem to stern this
steamer was loaded; a cargo of $500
tons of salt, brought from a place in
Sicily where they make salt by the
evaporation of sea water from arti-
fcially made ponds of about twenty
inches in depth.
TO one whose ideas of salt we're
confined to the trifing quantities Of
it that he saw in shakers and salt
cellars on the table this cargo of
thousands of tons seemed like a lot
of salt; really like something Curl
Gus and interesting and remarkable.
AS a matter of fact, in the various
uses to which it is put salt is used
in enormous quantities, and to those
acquainted with salt and salt trade
salt in full cargoes, large and small,
is something quite familiar.-New
York Sun.

A Boy and a Bird.

A Capitol Hill small boy received
q pair of pet pigeons from his aunt.
The youngster was very much inter
ested in them and paid them much
attention. He fed them a dozen
times a day at least. He was very
DESTROYS that some eggs should be
laid, but the hen pigeon did not
seem inclined to please him in this
respect. One day the little boy came
running to his mother. He was ex-
cited.
'Mamma," he said, Il know why
Mrs. Pigeon don't lay a egg!!"
"Why? ~ asked his mother.
Because her egg is stuck in her
neck" he replied. He had felt the
pigeons full crop.-Denyer Post.

Tho lauraI and the SunfloMer.

The laurel and the sunfower
have been found, according to
Country Life, to be of the greatest
use in damp situations. People who
live in such spots, especially a
undraiped land, think there is no
help for them but by removal. Sue
cessful experiments have shown
that it is possible materially to i'm
prove the atmosphere in such neigh
borhoods by the planting of laurels
and sunfowers. The former give
off an abundance of ozone, while the
latter are potent in destroying the
malarial conditions. These two, if
planted even on the most restricted
scale in q garden or any ground
close to the house, will be found to
increase speedily the dryness and
salubrity of the atmosphere.

THE SHOEMAKER SAINTS.
Story Of the Roman Brothers Who
Psrished BY the Sword.

st. Crispin and his brother, Girls
pinian always associated together
in the calendar), were two natives
of Rome who, having become con-
verts to Christianity, set out for
Gaul to preach the faith about the
middle Of the third century along
with st. Quintin and others. The
brothers settled at Scissors, where,
in imitation of the apostle Paul,
they preached publicly in the day
time and worked with their hands
at night, earning their own SUBJ
sistence by making shoes, though
nobly born. They supplied the poor
at a low price, and a legend tells us
that an angel supplied them with
leather. The heather listened to
their instructions and were aston
ished at the charity, disinterested-
ness, piety and contempt of glory
displayed in their lives, and many
were converted to the Christian
faith.
After they had been thus engaged
for several years the Emperor Max
imianus Herculius came into Belgic
Gaul, and a complaint was made to
him against the brothers. He, de-
string to crafty their accusers as
well as to indulge his own savage
cruelty, gave orders that they
should be brought before Rictius
Varus, the most implacable enemy
of the Christians of that time. The
saints bore with patience and con-
stancy the most cruel torments and
at length finished their course by
being beheaded with the sword
about 287 A. d.
According TO a Kentish tradition,
their remains, being cast into the
sea, we're washed ashore at Romney
marsh. In the sixth century a
great church was built in their hon
or at Scissors, and st. Eligius richly
ornamented the shrine.
From their martyrdom to the
present time they have been re-
garded as the patron saints of shoe
makers, who were accustomed to
honor their day land are yet in
some towns) by great festivity. One
special ceremony was a procession
of the brethren of the craft with
banners and music, while various
characters representing King Girls
pin and his court were sustained by
different members.-St. James Ga
zette.

"But if you were an astronomer
you would be obliged to make cal
culations on a scale that you never
have to attempt now. You'd have
to deal with millions and billions
and quadrillions of miles, instead of
hundreds and thousands of dollars,
as you do now"
"That's very true. But l wouldn't

c0NJUNCTIWTlS.
There Are Several Varieties Of Th!s
Disease of the Eyes.

StoSaoS W hVS sy~s
Conjunctivitis, which is the most
common form of sore eyes, is an in
fammation of the thin, transparent
membrane covering the front sur
face of the eyeball and lining the
lids.
Oculists distinguish several varfe-
ties of this disease, the symptoms OF
which vary greatly in intensity.
There may be merely a bloodshot
condition, due to the enlargement
of the blood vessels to such a size
that they become visible, accompa-
MED by an itching and a feeling as
if there were dust in the eyes, with
perhaps a little sticky discharge
which giues the lids together in the
morning. The eyes are also sensi-
tive to light and sometimes ache
slightly.
In more severe cases the dis
charge is profuse and ~yellowish, ul-
GERS may form, and the infamma-
ton may even extend to the deeper
structures of the eye and so destroy
sight.
One Of the chronic forms of con-
junctivitis is that known as tracho-
ma. or granular lids. This is very
difficult to cure and often results in
a permanent injury to vision. 1t
is also quite contagious. Indeed, all
forms of sore eye are probably on
tagious, but some are more so than
others, and for this reason the most
scrupulous precautions should be
taken to protect the other members
of the family when one has any
form of conjunctivitis. The suffer
er should sleep in a bed by himself
and should have his own towels,
wash rag or sponge and handker-
chiefs, and these when soiled
should be thoroughly boiled in a
separate vessel and should not 60
into the common wash.
The treatment of simple con-
junctivitis consists chiefly in clean
illness. The eyes should be bathed
often in lukewarm water containing
a pinch of salt or in a solution of
boric acid, and some of the solution
should be dropped into the eye, so
as to wash away the discharge.
The eyes should be shielded from
the light by smoked glasses OF Cog
giles.
Little squares of cloth, cut large
enough to cover the eye, may be
placed on a cake of ice. When cold
they can be laid on the eye and
changed as soon as they become
warm. This application is often
very grateful to the sufferer and is
useful in subduing the infamma-
ton.
If the trouble does not quickly
subside under this simple treat
ment a physician should be consult
ed, for the eye is a very delicate or
gan, and irremediable mischief may
result if Inflammation is allowed to
run on.
A very serious form of ore eye
is sometimes seen in newborn ba-
bies. This should never be trihed
with, but the doctors attention
should be called to it at once.
Children who suffer from repeat
ed attacks of conjunctivitis should
be taken to the oculist for an ex-
animation of the eyes, for it may be
hat they need glasses. - Youths
