he e10NALED WITH A OF CANVAS
Kocht wandered thirty roiles inland In
search Of water, at last finding it In
some small clefts In the rocks.
Refreshed with the water, Kocht
once more wandered back to the shore
to set up a lonely vigil for q passing
ship. There, cast upon tho beach, he
found the body OF seal, and upon the
carcass the marooned man contrived
to exist, sleeping in the daytime, when
the sur warmed the sand, and pacing
the shore during the cool nights.
From q piece Of canvas from the
wrecked dory Kocht manufactured a
signal, and twice q day, a. long az his
strength lasted, he climbed to q pima
e3e Of rock, where b kept 4 lockout
for q passing sail.
When the schooner Alice hove in
sight Kocht was 30 weakened from his
su9sFtng that he could barely creep
upon his knees. The schooner stood
81 from the shore, and the skipper mo-
toned for him to swim. Fearful lest
he vessel might pass him By. Kocht
sank unconscious on the sand, and It
was thus that the fishermen found
him.
It raj not until he was revived on
boardsthe schooner that Kocht learned
that within forty miles Of the place
where he was stranded there is a
lighthouse.

BENEFITS OF YAwNING
German Doctor Says Gaping Acts .
Z to the Sxsfann.

German Doctor Says Gaping Acts .
Tonic to the System.
According to the teachings Of physi-
ology, 1t is a long drawn, forcible In
SEPARATION, followed by a shorter respi-
ration. According to DR.. Naegeli, the
great European physician, it is n OF
natures many remedies, the pr0pen
application Of which depends uponI
good judgment.
In yawning not only the muscles
which move the lower jaw + used
but also the breathing muscles Of thei
chest, and he who yawns In the proper
way also raises and extends the arms.l
In the deepest inspiration the chest re-
mains extended for a short time, the
eyes are almost: or entirely closed, the
ears somewhat raised, the nostrils
dilated. Inside the mouth the tongue
b round and arched, the palate stifly
stretched and the uvula raised, al
most entirely closing the space be-
tween the nose and throat. At the
beginning Of the inspiration a cracking
noise Is heard In the ears, a proof that
the duct leading to the hearing also
succumbs to this stretching.
Although a person yawning does not
present a very agreeable appearance,
q yawn Is very agreeable to the per-
son yawning, for the stretching OF
muscles causes a feeling Of comfort.
It acts like massage and is the most
natural gymnastics of the lungs imagi-
nable. DR.. Naegeli therefore advises
people not to concern themselves with
80 called decency, but every morning
and evening and as often as possible
to exercise the lungs and all the mus
cles of respiration by yawning and
stretching, as many chronic lung trou-
bles may thus be prevented.
He orders the patient troubled with
too much wax in the ears, accompa-
MED with pain, to yawn often and
deeply. He also in cases of nasal ca
tarrh, inflammation of the palate, sore
throat and earache orders the patient
az often as possible during each day
to yawn from six to ten times sue
cessfvely and Immediately after to
swallow. The result will be surpris-
ing. If n looks upon yawning as a
natural massage for certain organs,
he will reach a satisfactory explana-
don Of fts curative properties.

POST HOLE DIGGER,

stationary, it is pivoted to the handle,
the adjusting of the blade being ac-
complished by a ratchet. The shovel is
operated by simply pushing the handle
forward, then back again until the
blade is at right angles. The loose dirt
which will have fallen on to the blade
Of the shovel is then brought to the
surface. The handle is made In five
foot sections, the grips being screwed
On. To dig to a depth of fifteen feet an
opening large enough to admit the
blade is all that is required.

CROP OF PROMOTERS VICTIMS
9Th Clergy and Maiden Ladies'" said
to BE Favored Class Easiest
to Reach.

The Worlds Work constantly receives
letters telling how come poor man or
woman has been induced to buy doubtful
stocks, and faces the loss Of the entire
investment. Many of these letters come
from country doctors and cleig 6. men. and
tell of cases that have come under their
personal observation.
Very often the stories arc pitiful enough.
They all ind with the question: What tan
be done about it," In ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred nothing can be done. In
the hundredth case there has been fraud
on the part Of some resp agent, and
a suit at law may recover the loss, But
this nance is slight, for practically this
form OF piracy is safe, and nothing can
be done TO stop II.

When The Blood
Goes Wreng
Man Suffers In Many Places
Like A City Whose Sewers
Spread Disease.

When the blood Of man becomes impure
and filled with poison and decay, II throws
off the impurities and leaves them to force
and tester themselves through the skin,
just like a city in whose sewers foul gases
arise and escape up through cellars into
houses, bringing contagion and death.
What a city needs is a generous flow OF
pure water to carry along and away the
sewage which breeds death and disease.
What the system needs for the blood that
is impure is a purifier that will stimulate
the flow Of the precious fluid. that will
check the impurities and remove them by
the flow OF the blood from the system ma
turslly without irritation, infection and
pain.
Calcium Sulphide is the strongest blood
purifier known to science and medicine.
What pure, running water does to the i'm
p%urities In a city's sewer Calcium sulphide
does for the blood Of man.

body all the strength and vigor Of Cal

A recent article has stated that most Cal

NOTES OF THE OPERA ABROAD

The Rivalry between Emmy Destinn

caused by the fact that she will not be

Miss Geraldine Farrar, and the feud be-
