A House In Pompeii.

In the exhumation of Pompeii one house was discovered which was evil dently being repaired when the voi- caulc storm that overwhelmed the city hurled it to the ground. Painters, dec orators and cleaners must have been busy at the very moment of the catas- trophe. Painters pots and brushes and workmenS tools were scattered all over the house Telltale spots of whitewash starred wall and floor. Such domestic implements as pots and kettles had been bundled up in cor ner all by themselves. There was a bronze dish in waiting before the oven and on the dish a sucking pig ready to be baked. But the oven was already engaged with It's full complement of bread. So the pig had to walt. It., however, never entered the oven after all, and the loaves were not taken out. They had remained where placed to bake, it is calculated, close upon 2.OOO years. There were twenty-three of them, rather crusty, of course, and somewhat dark colored, but otherwise perfectly preserved.

MhitefieId on Loye bad Marriaao.

George Whiteheld, the most persua- slve preacher England has produced. who died on Sept 30, lTTO, could ap- peal so powerfully to the emotions that he once enticed all the money from the pocket of the prudent Frank lin. Yet he strangely anticipated some modern unromantic views on the sub ject of marriage. In lT4O he applied to the parents of young lady for the hand of their daughter adding, "If know anything of my own heart l am free from that foolish passion which the world calls love"
 When this prosaic proposal was de- clined the uudamted Whitedeld mar, ried an elderly Welsh widow neither rich nor beautiful" This merry wid- ow" did not make a congenial help mate. and WhiteGcld remarked, witI refreshing candor that "hcr death set his mind at rest" Westminster Ga- Zette.

Pat Kelly, the owuer of the only jauntlng car in the village, went on a spree and was sentenced 10 a fine of 20 shillings or seven days in jail kel- ly chose the latter
 Now, the prison was ten miles away, and the only possible means of getting a prisoner there was by driving. As Kelly himself had the only car in the place. there was nothing to do but to hire it.. For some time the constable and his prisoner haggled over the terms.
 Kelly stuck out firmly for 30 shil- lIngs, to be paid in advance, and at last the constable had to consent to the extortlon. Accordingly they drove off and without any mlsadventures ar rived at the prison. When they had aIiShted Kelly suddenly informed his companion that he had changed his mind. as the prison wasn't a decent looking place, and would pay the fine.
 He thereupon drew out the 30 shil' lIngs he had received, counted out the 20 shiIlings and paid them over to the Inspector. Then, jumping on his car' he drove away, leaving the constable to walk back.

GOVERNOR HoGeATT's REPORT AND THE ALASKA COAL LANDS CASES.

the owners.
 The state of Minnesota extracts a royalty from all the iron ore mined in the state and this money goes to- ward lessening the burden of taxa, ton on the people. We believe that the Alaskan coal mines should contri- bute in a similar manner to the na- tion.
 If the patents are granted outright it will mean that the coal market of the United States for generations to come is at the mercy of those who control the Alaskan coal fields.
 The Alaskan heartily coincides with Ex-Gov. HOggatt in his demand for legislation that will hasten the devel, opment of the coal fields, but we think it a short sighted and criminal policy to bestow on private individ- uals the richest resources remaining to the government without some slight returns.
 It is a grave, vital question and Hoggatt has treated it in a superfic- ial manner. He is solicitous for the Guggenheim interests as ever; but the peoples welfare is absolutely oy- erlooked.

AT II OWES FINE HEAD 0F HAIR
 ID CUTICURA
Itching, Scaling Scalp Humor was Making It All Fall 0ut-Two Doc tors Could Not Stop the Trouble Niece Advised Using CutiCura,
CURED HER SCALP AND
 MADE HAIR GROW AGAIN

My mother used to have O very bad humor on her head which the doctors called an eczema, and for it had two different doctors. Her head was very sore and her hair nearly all fell out in spite of what they both did. One day her niece came in to see her and they were speaking of how her hair was falling out and the doctors did it no good. She says, Aunt, why don't you try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint- mentY Mother did and they helped her, so she soon began bathing with the Cuticura Soap and amounting with the Cuticura Ointment, and in six months time the itching, burning and sealing of her head was over and her hair began growing. To-day she feels very much in debt to Cuticura Soap and Ointment for the fine head of hair she has for an old lady scventy-four years old.
 "In regard to my own case, mine was . .an eczema something like hers. It was in my feet. As soon as the cold weather came my feet would itch and burn and then they would crack open and bleed. Then l thought l would flee to my mothers friends, Cuticura Soap and Cuti- cura Ointment. l did for four or five winters and now my feet are as smooth asany ones, Ellsworth Durham, Hiram, Me-, Sept. 30, 1909.

THE CENTURY PLANT.
It Blooms, Says a Florist, Every Twen-
 ty-five to Forty Years.

 ty-fivo to Forty Yoars.
 "The regular century plant" said an expert in Horticulture, Ifs not cactus. It belongs to a family by itself It has a large, broad leaf, sometimes two or three feet long and several inches thick where they branch from the cen ter. There are two varieties, one the varlegated and the other green. Tho only difference is that the varlegatcd has a white stripe along the outer edge of the leaf. Both bloom every twenty five to forty years. A stock perhaps eight or ten Inches in diameter shoots up from the center to a height of tf- teen or twenty feet, aud around this stock cluster small blossoms. They are neither pretty nor fragrant They were formerly supposed to bloom once in hundred years.
 "The nearest thing to a century plant is a night blooming cereus. It is cactus and blooms once in about every twenty-five years or so. The flower is large. very beautiful and has a delightful odor, One plant may have several blossoms, but each flower lasts only one night
 "There is no such plant as a century cactus The cactuses that many have mistaken for century cactuses' will bloom in four or i've years if kept un- der glass or about seven years if not in a hothouse. Because they are so long in blooming, suppose, they have been called century cactuses,' and the name has been handed down until it is considered the proper term for them. They bloom yearly after the first blos- sons appear. They are just an ordi- nary cactus, but they have pretty, fragrant aower."-Seattle Times.

 R. c. Fenton, S9O5 N. Cheyenne St. Tacoma, Wash, says: q gave a state ment for publication, telling of my ex perience with Deans Kidney Pills som years ago and am now pleased to confirm all l then said in their favor. l was afflicted with kidney trouble and finally became so bad off that | was obliged to give up my work. | had dull, heavy pains through my kidneys and on one occasion was confined to my bed for almost a month. The unnatural condition of the kidney secretions also plainly de- noted that my kidneys needed atten- ton. When l learned of Doan's Kid noy Pills, l procured a box and be- gan their use. I felt great relief from the first and before long my trouble was entirely disposed of. l have since had no return of kidney complaint"

Tho Cannv Scot.

In the differences that would some times arise between members of bis tenantry the Duke of Argyll was often invited to arbitrate upon the matter in dispute, and he used to tell a charac- teristically Scottish story of one of the occasions. Two tenants having waited upon him and asked him to decide the question at issue, the duke put what he always regarded as a very necessary preliminary question. "Win you abide by my award?"
 Well, your grace" was the reply of one of the hard headed old disputOnts, 'I'd like to ken first what 1t is."-Lon- don Chronicle.

Mice That Subsist on Scorpion


Among the queer forms of animal
life that inhabit Death valley, is a
mouse that has acquired such taste
for scorpions that they form its en-
tire bill of fare. The scorpion carries
its formidable armament in the end
of its slender. elongated abdomen in
the shape of an exceedingly venomous
hooked sting. When disturbed it ele-
Yates this in the air and goes in search
of it's disturber. But ii is compare
lively slow in it's motions. while mice
are proverbial for their quickness the
world over. The mouse learned many
generations ago where the scorpion
carries it's weapon. and when be meets
it he leaps at the uplifted abdomen,
takes off the sting at d single bite and
proceeds to make meal Of his help
less prey 1t is supposed, to be the
only animal that relishes scorpions.

Bedouins and Water.

It is not unusual to hear a Bedouin
upon reaching camp where water is
offered him refuse it with the remark.
st drank only yesterday" On the
Bedouins' long marches across dry
countries the size of the water skins is
nicely calculated TO just outlast the
journey, and they rarely allow them
selves to break the habit of abstemi-
BUSINESS, as this would be sure to make
their next water fast all the harder.
They are accustomed from infancy TO
regard water as a most precious COM
modify and use it with religious econ
omy. They know every hollow and
nook in the mountains where water
may be found. Their camels and goats,
which they take with them on their
marches to supply them with milk and
meat, live principally on the scanty
heritage and foliage of the thorny mi
mosa. Neither men nor animals drink
more than once in forty-eight hours.
No wonder they can subsist where in
Vaders quickly perish. i
