How the Bears Learned to Coast
ny Maud walker.

and since his fathers death a year ago he
has seemed to realize the responsibility
devolving upon him as head of the family"
"Ah, what's that?" And one OF the
younger searchers pointed to the side Of
the mountain about half a mile distant,
And there, creeping slowly up the 10y
ascent, to slip suddenly down again, could
be seen a dark object much resembling a
bear.
"It's Lightfoot Bruno, as sure AS we're
here" declared one of the old bears after
taking deliberate view Of the moving OBJ
ject on the mountainside. Yes, it's he,
but what sort Of nonsense can he be at
there? Come, let's go at once and prevail
upon him to return to his home with U.S."
Within half an hour the company Of
searchers had gathered at the top of the
icy side where Lightfoot B~runo-for it
he-was still making slow work Of
getting up the steep incline, for no sooner
you'd he reach a certain place than he
Would Immediately slip back to the very
bottom OF the slope again.
'Heigho, there, Lightfootv" cried one Of
the wise fathers of Bear City. What
sort Of antics do you call those you are
now engaged in? And why have you left
your happy home to come away off here
in the frozen mountainside to climb up
and slip down this icy siope2 Come, give
an account of yourself, for your poor
mother is all but distracted over your un-
accountable disappearance"
"Lightfoot paused while half way to the
top. and, hanging on to a bit Of hemlock
bush that thrust itself through the solid
ice in the mountainside, answered in a
weak voice: Friends and ~neighbors, you
may think I am capering in this fashion
for fun, but you are sadly mistaken. And
If you'll assist me to reach the top of this
slide I'll explain how I came TO be here"
All the bears set to work to rescue their
friend, and several stepped boldly upon

Bear City were fearful that some canni-
balistic people had coaxed the venture
some fellow from his home that they might
STAY him and devour him for a Christmas
feast,
"'Tis the first time my son ever went
away from home without asking my con-
sent wept the mother bear, abiding to
the departed one. And I'm sore afraid
he has met with foul play. And If he
doesn't return before Christmas eve. /
shall be too unhappy to complete my prep
arations for the Christmas Day dinner l
had anticipated with so much pleasure"
"Never mind, never mind, good friend
and nelghbor," said another mother bear,
putting her arms about her disconsolate
friend. IAN our fathers. husbands and
sons are going forth to search for your
missing one, and we shall hope for the
best till the worst is assuerd. Come,
cheer up until other news has been re-
ceived."
Then, with a furry OF trumpets, the male
citizens Of Bear City went forth to find
the lost, strayed or stolen youth whose
disappearance the night before had caused
so much stir and anxiety in the town.
For hours they searched up and down
the mountainside, crossing canyon after
canyon, and fording dangerous streams.
But when the noon hour arrived their
search had availed them nothing. Not a
single paw-print Of a bear had they found.
"It will break his mothers heart If we
do not find him" said one old bear. And
upon my life / can't understand the youths
conduct. He has been happy in his home;
has the best mother and sister in the world,

needed. When the people heard of It they
wanted some. but II would always change
to water for them.

BEST OF PROOF.
Catarrhal Diseases.

That Hys1nei Will Cure all Forms OF
Testimonials could be printed by the
thousands, many of them from Will
minston and nearby towns, that Hyomi
IS an absolute cure for all catarrhal
uoubles, but the best of proof Of Its
unusual curative powers is the guar
antee that r. R.. Bellamy gives with
every outfit he sells, Money back If
Hyomei does not do all that is claimed
for it."
Hyomei is not a secret remedy. Its
formula is given freely to physicians
who want to know what they use when
they prescribe Hyomei. 1t is gGaran-
teed under the Pure Food and Drug
Law by serial No. 1418.
BY breathing Hyomei, the healing
medication goes directly to every nook
and corner of the air passages where
the catarrhal germs may lurk, and
eisinfects and heals. To be convinced
of this o have only to give it a trial,
remembering that if it does not cure,
r. R. Bellamy will refund your money.
There is no dangerous stomach drug
g1ng when Hyomei is used. It's heal
ing medication is breathed through a
little pocket inhaler a few times daily,
and almost Immediately a great I'M
proFement is noticed and quick recoy-
cry follows.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
SLIGO. and in most cases is sufficient to
cure the disease, making it not only a
Il Ca1anfiEo fpnat-14 - ..
highly economical. Get an outfit to-
day from r. r. Bellamy if you have
any symptoms of catarrah, and see
how quickly the remedy relieves and
cures.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET

New York, Feb. 10.-The activity In
stocks which revived towards the enc
OF the last week was extended in the
form Of selling orders and a deep cut
was made in the formerly prevailing
level of prices ddring the course the
days operations. Stocks were indus
trously pressed for sale from all sides
and as the demand was quite made
quate to absorb these sales there was
a rapid decline in prices7 with only oc-
casional checks caused by the covering
operations of the professional bears.
The course which political activities
are shaping was a continued theme Of
discussion about the stock exchange
and with depressing effect. The impress
sion Of hostile influence ON the side Of
politics was heightened by the official
commentators for greater rigor in the
collection of the stok transfer and
franchise taxes in New York state. De-
clining railroad earnings brought into
| question future dividend disburse-
ments. The shrinkage in profits also
adds to the Importance of the large
financing which presses upon many
corporations for settlement. The prin-
cipal sufferers in the days losses were
stocks which have been favorites dur
ing the past week. Some of the days
decline outside of these will be found
moderate.
Bonds were weak. Total sales, par
value, $2,O66, 900. United States Is reg
istered advanced 1-8 per cent. on call.
Total sales today 952, 300 shares.

SOME TALES TOLD HERE.
druggists Hear Much Praise for This
Simple Homemade Mixture.

some remarkable stories are he
ing told of this simple homemade
mixture curing Rheumatism and Kid
ney troubles, seen after the most no.
tea health resorts have failed to give
the slightest relief. Here is the receipe
and directions for taking: Mix by
shaking well in a bottle one-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla
Take as a dose me t"easpoonful after
meals and at bed time.
No change need be made in your
usual diet, but drink plenty of good
water. This mixture, writes one au-
thority, has a peculiar tonic effect
upon the kidneys; cleansing the clog
ged-up pores OF the eliminative It's
sues, forcing the kidneys to sift and
strain from the blood the uric acid
and other poisonous waste matter,
overcoming Rheumatism, Bladder
and Urinary troubles in a short while
A New York druggist who has had
hundreds of calls for these ingredi-
ents since the first announcement in
the newspapers, stated that the peo-
pie who once try it swear by it,"
especially those who have Urinary
and Kidney trouble and suffer with
Rheumatism.
Every prescription pharmacy can
supply the ingredients, which arc cas-
lily mixed at home. There is said
to Ue no better blood-cleansing agent
or system tonic known, and certainly
none more harmless or simple to
use. r
