FOOLISH THINGS.
story Of the Boy Who Watched the
Moth Mlllers.

The boy watched the moth millers
ffutter around the lamp. Many OF
them would fly. against the hot chin
ney and fall to the table. scorched and
burned. Some OF them would fly d.
rectly into the chimney and there
would drop into the flame and be con-
sumed, or lie half burned next to the
blaze. Occasionally. moth would fall
to the table, overcome with heat. but
with enough life to keep its wings
moving. and ofttimes the dying moth
would crawl towards the same light
that had caused its suffering. "How
strange% thought the boy. Cant
the moths see these scorched and
wingless millers? Why will they rush
into the flame and be destroyed?
Here is live miller unscorched
It has for the moment lit among the
dead ones. There 1t goes. All! N

burned, dead. / should think that II
moth millers are able to discern the
light, they would have enough sense
to discover the danger where so many
are lying dead"

GERMS In HER SYSTEM
Every woman should Read This

The number of diseases peculiar To
woman is such that we believe that
this space would hardly contain mere
mention OF their names, and il is fact
that most of these diseases are of a
catarrhal nature. a woman cannot be
well IL there is trace OF the catarrhal
germs in her system.
Some women think there is no help
for them. We positively declare this
to be a mistaken idea. We are SO sure
of this that we offer TO supply medicine
absolutely free of all cost in every in
stance where il fails TO give entire salts
faction or does not substantiate ouI
claims. With this understanding, nc
woman should hesitate TO believe oul
honesty ofspurpose, or hesitate to put
our claims TO test.
There is only one way TO cure catarrh.
That way is through the blood. You
may use all the snufis, douches or like
remedies for years without getting mroe
than temporary relief at best. Catarrh
is caused by germ. That germ il
carried by the blood to the innermost
part of the system until the mucous
membrane is broken, irritation and
inflammation produced, and IA flow OF
mucous results, and you can probably
realize how silly it is TO attempt To cure
such an ailment unless you take med
icine that follows the same course as
the germ or parasite.
ReXall Mucu-Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription OF an
eminent physician who for thirty years
made his speciality catarrh, and with
this medicine he averaged % per cent
of cures where il was employed. Nc
other remedy is SO properly designed
for the ailments of woman. 1t viii
purify and enrich the blood, stop mu
cous discharge, destroy all germ matter

PORTLAND CITY JAILER HAS
MARROW ESCAPE FROM AS
PHYXIATION.

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. "a
Robert e. Robson, night city
jailer, today owes his life to the
insistent jangling of a telephone,
which aroused him from a stu
por produced by inhaling gas. His
wife was at the residence of her
mother yesterday, where she and
her husband were to take dinner.
Alarmed at the lateness of her
husband, Mrs. Robson called him
over the telephone. Robson, who
usually arises at 4 o'clock in the
afternoon, was still asleep at 5
O'Clock.
Il heard the telephone bell
ringing" said Robson. 1.-THE
ring was so insistent that / final

but felt weak. and was SO far

Upon investigation a pipe in
the basement was found bursted,
and gas escaping in great guam

passenger steamer st. Croix,
which burned and sank three
miles off Point Duma Saturday

Nothing but the best of manag =

period of awful suffering in which
the passengers and crew went for
&c hours without food, painfully
working their way to land through
a dense fog and then trudging on
foot for IA miles to the nearest

Following the cry of fire, the
crew attempted to quench tae
flames. This was impossible, how
ever, and the boats were rapidly
lowered. One of them broke
from the ropes and fell into the
sea with Mrs. l.. A. Wallace. her
six-months-old babe, and a dozer

Mr.. Wallace and a couple o.
other men dove into the sea from
the deck and, after heroic efforts
rescued all those struggling il
