Tree an Old Mans Friend.

Charles Nicholson, Sr., has a pecan
tree of which he is justly proud. In
1855 he was brought to Texas as q
slave, says the Houston Post. When
he was set free he bought a small
farm and there was one pecan tree
on it. He planted a few more trees,
but they were small or common Pc
cans.
While young and strong he raised
cotton and corn and made a living,
but no money to save. To-day he is
no longer able to work the field. but
devotes his attention to pecan trees.
One tree bears the largest pecans
grown in America. They can be found
at the department of agriculture.
Washington. where he SEM a few.
Last year he sold $54 worth from
this n tree. He gave his friends
some and planted more. The young
trees he is selling rapidly at 81 each.
and yesterday said he had none left.

HOW WOMAN WAS MADE.

Tho Hindu Theory a Pretty Substi-
tute for the Rib Theory.
The poor Hindu was sadly put to it
to cou for woman, lovely woman,
but no more so than many wiser ones
since his time. According to the le-
gend, Twashtri, the Vulcan of Hindu
mythology. created the world, but when
he arriy ! at the final object which
was to be his chef d'oeuvre he found
to his annoyance that he had run out
of materials. He had not a single
chunk of solid matter left:
With q mental execration upon his
carelessness he fell into a profound
meditation, the result of which was
that he took 1.-The roundness Of the
moon, the undulating curves of the
serpent, the graceful twist of the
creeping plant, the light shivering of
the grass blade and the slenderness Of
the willow, the velvety softness of
the flowers, the lightness of the feath-
err, the gentle gaze Of the doe, the
frolicsome of the sunbeam, the tears
of the cloud. the Inconsistency of the
wind, the timidity OF the hare, the van
ity Of the peacock. the hardness OF
the diamond. the cruelty Of the tiger.
the heat of the fire, the chill of the
snow, the cackling of the parrot and
the cooling OF the turtle dove"
He mixed these together in equal
proportions. and the result was woman.
After all, demands the Kansas City
Journal, isn't this an advance upon
the rib theory?

THE SWAY OF THE TYPEWRITER
Chinese the Only Language Which Re
sists the Machine.

The typewriter is playing an impor-
tant part in civilizing the world. The
latest invention in this line is a ma
chine capable Of transcribing the
Japanese ideogram; but typewriters
imprinting Arabic. Syriac, Armenian,
Hebrew and other Oriental languages
have long been used.
In Turkey the printing or anything,
from a circular letter to a book. al
only be done under a permit from the
government. Therefore typewriters
which imprint Turkish or Arabic char
acters are prohibited from passing
through the custom house. Neverthe-
less. the increasing demand has
somehow produced a small supply.
Bagdad. q city Of 100000 inhabitants.
has twenty machines, all Of which
write Arabic. In Syria, one OF the
most polyglot countries In the world,
Syriac, Arabic and French writing
typewriters are used by many Of the
business houses. Persia. which uses
the Arabic script, is learning to adopt
the typewriter. To go farther east,
a number Of Hindustani writing ma
chaines are now used in Bombay and
other cities of India. Chinese seems
to be the only language which still
resists the typewriter's endearments.

Chamberlain, South Dakota.

People get well at Chamberlain be-
they are told how they are sick,
how they got sick and how to get well.
Most people are sick because they
have cultivated sickness through ig-
nOrance of the laws of health. Get
ting we'll Is the reverse Of getting
sick. II is just as easy to get well in
most cases OF chronic disease as 1t is
to raise a crop of potatoes. 1t is much
the same thing. the farmer plants po-
tatoes and helps them to grow by cul-
tvating them, wedding them. etc. He
can not make potatoes grow by inject
ing something into them, or by rub
bing something on them; they have to
be cultivated, then they grow natural
ly. BY and by the harvest comes. and
1t is just the same way with health.
The Chamberlain Sanitarium is a
place where people eat for health, ex.
ercise for health, sleep, dress, take
baths. massage and special treat
ments for health.
Healing power is in the blood. The
blood is life. Impure blood. thin ane-
mic blood. blood saturated with to-
bacco, alcohol. or uric acid, or ~poisons
OF any kind, has little or no healing
power. To have great healing power
the blood must be pure. In order to
have pure blood the stomach and in
testines must do their proper work.
The liver and kidneys must be nor

flersh firm and solid. Actual and per-
manent Improvement must be a result
of a change in the body itself. There
must be a constitutional RECONSTRUCT
ton which is brought about by sun
shine. pure air, exercise, wholesome
food. hydrotheraputic applications.
careful nursing and in some cases
skillful surgical attention.
The Chamberlain Sanitarium is an
institution built on scientific princi-
pies which are successfully p%racticed
in Sanitariums throughout the whole

East and West Of Fiji.

East of Fiji life is n long, lotus
eating dream, stirred only by occa-
sional parties of pleasure, feasting.
love making, dancing and a very little
gardening work. Music is the SOU OF
the people. beauty of face and move
ment is more the rule than the excep-
ton, and friendliness to strangers is
carried almost to excess. Westward of
the Fits lie the dark, wicked, cannibal
groups of the Solomons, Banks and
New Hebrides, where life is more like
a nightmare than a dream; murder
stalks openly in l Dad daylight. peo-
pie are nearer to monkeys than hu-
man beings In aspect, and music and
dancing are little practiced and in the
rndest possible state.
