The dragon, a noble foe, is made of

Not Taking Him.

A small negro boy was going
along the street carrying a turtle by
the tail when ventriloquist stand
ing near threw his voice over to the
turtle and seemed to make it say,
"Where is you all goin' with me"
The little negro heard the question
and looked around with astonlsh-
ment, but, not being entirely salts
fed as to where the voice came
from, walked on. Again the ventrll-
oouist threw his voice over to the
turtle and said, 81 say, where is you
all a-takin' me"
This time the boy was satisfied
that the turtle had been gifted with
a miraculous power of speech and
instantly dropped it on the side

reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
iuflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachiao Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbllng sound or imperfect hearing
add when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Illumination can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con
dition. hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

SECOND HELpINGs.
A Nice Calculation In Beans and =
Dose Of Ginger Tea.

A Nice Calculation In Beans and .
Dose Of Ginger Tea.
It is told Of an old time boarding
mistress of Marblehead, shrewd
dame who kept her boardcrs under
admirable control, that once, on
Saturday night, daring man broke
the unwritten law of the establish
ment and asked second time for
beans. At once several others, who
had not dared, but were ready to
follow a leader should he succeed,
looked up expectantly.
The landlady promptly ladled
into the plate of the rash innovator
last spoonful, scraped from the
deepest interior of the dish, and.
sweeping the table with beaming
smile, declared triumphantly:
'"rhere! l calculated on just
enough to a bean!"
Second helpings were otherwise
discouraged by boarding mistress
of Old Morley. A young school
teacher, late to dinner from skat-
ing party, ate little of the half cold
and unappetizing first courses, but
ventured a second request for hot
mince pie. 1t was served without
comment, but few minutes after
dinner the maid tapped at her door.
"Missus is afraid all that pie
won't set WE'LL" she announced,
"and she says shan't she make you
some ginger tea? ?"
The kind offer was declined. But
a half hour later the maid appeared
again.
'Missus says she's sure you must
be needin' ginger tea by now" she
stated. "She'll send some right up
the minute you say SO. It's all
ready"
Somewhat less graciously the Of
fer was declined again. But in a
few minutes the maid reappeared
! with a tray and "Here's your gin
ger tea; missus says you better be
on the safe side and take it."
Rather sharply the tray was re-
pudiated. Five minutes later the
maid knocked once more.
"Missus says she's got to go out,
but she amt just easy in her mind
to leave you. She's put your ginger
tea on the back Of the stove, keepin'
hot, and you'll find the extract bot
tie on the second shelf of the pan
! try if you want any more. She
says she hopes you'll be all right,
but that pie was awful rich, and
two pieces was enough to upset an
ostrich"
They did not disturb the diges-
ton of the healthy and hungry
Young schoolmistress. But she never
risked mourning her landlady's So
licitude by more second helpings.
The ginger tea had cured her Of
that.-Youth's Companion.

THAT half the water taken
from the bitches under present
irrigation systems is wasted be-
cause the grower does not know
how to handle it efficiently is The
estimate OF experts who have
made a study OF the use OF water
and what is true OF the irriga-
ton OF crops is in a measure
true OF the irrigation OF lawns
and parking in towns and cities.
This waste OF water is what in.
creases the cost to every user
aud the worst OF the folly is that
it is of material benefit to no
one.-Lewiston Teller.

IT is said the new tariff law Is
no, satisfactory to the high pro-
tectionists, the free traders nor
the advocates Of a tariff for rev
enue only. But the main thing
is that it does not satisfy the
consumer of the necessaries OF
lif.. because it makes no material
reduction in the cost OF the
things that the people must
have. The tariff is probably not
the chief cause of the high price
OF living, yet it is in the power
of congress to furnish some
relief and many senator's and
congressman are being blamed
for not voting to lower the
schedules on foodstuffs and
clothing. To many it is plain
that congress is too much under
the sway OF the vested inter-
ests." The men whom the peo-
ple elect to make their laws are
too apt to forget the peoples
interests while listening to the
arguments OF the trust barons.
Many members of both houses
did their best to resist ruling
tendency but they were not III
the majority. The consolation
is that the tariff was kept IN a
measure from going from bad to
worse, was improved in some
respects, aud while the consun''
cr ln,s not been helped much, il
at, all, neither have the vested
interests secured all they tried
to get.

Many persons who think their
sight perfect have greater visual
power in one eye than in the other.
With regard to the respective pow
er OF the right and left eyes, well
known optician finds that person
occupied in writing all day has, as
a rule, stronger vision in the left.
Writing with the right hand and
his left arm resting on the table,
his left eye is nearer his work, and
its vision is more concentrated.
This expert says that our race will
never become so shortsighted as the
German while football, cricket, ten
MS. hockey, etc, are encouraged in
our public schools.

A Lucky Answer.

A famous animal painter says
that when he was boy he once
witnessed fight between two dogs,
one of which belonged to an Irish
man who was retired prizefighter.
The Irishman's dog was badly beat
en-, and the fact was source OF
deep chagrin to the owner. He was
very jealous of his dogs record, but
as only he and the painter had seen
the fight he asked the latter in a
decidedly significant way which of
the dogs won.
"Why," was the reply, "your dog
won, of course. He was underneath
the other dog, but he was chewing
the life out of the cur all the time. ;"
CHATS roight," said the Irish
man. "You have saved your lofe.'

THE Bonner county officials, in
explaining matters to the state
board OF equalization, said the
low valuation reported for Bon
ner this year is due to the fact
that most OF the patented land
is covered with stumps and
"practically valueless. 1t would
seem they should be content,
therefore, to have the timber
lands remain in the national
forests rather than have them
opened to entry, cut over and
rendered valueless.
