 Up for Lost.

New Orleans. La, Oct. 29-Passen- gers and crews of the steamers Louis jana and Bluefields, which were wrecked during the recent hurricane, have reached New Orleans on the Southern Pacific steamer Excelsior from Havana. All of them told har rowing tales about the storm.
 The Louisiana was wrecked on Son. hrero reef, in the Florida strait, and the Blutields went on the rocks near Cape Antonio, Cuba. The Louisiana can be floated, but her cargo is a loss. The Bluefields is half full of water, with a great hole in her side, and the vessel may not be saved.
 Peter Culotta, member of the crew of the Bluefields, brought news of the wreck of the British steamer Crown Prince on the southwest coast of Cuba. The Crown Prince was driven on the rocks during the height of the storm and broke in two. The crew clung to the wreckage until the storm abated, when they reached shore in safety. The cargo of cof fee is total loss It was valued at over $1,O0o.000

Laxative Sent
 Free to Try

It may be taken for granted that there is no family of any size that goes very long without needing a lax ative If you don't know of a good laxative, or the laxative you are using is losing its effect, we want to call your attention to Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin, which thousands of families are using successfully.
 We have scores of letters from moth- CTS. and scores from prominent men saying they are using it personally and giving it to their families, men like Mr. c. K. Smith of the Traffic Clearing House, Pine Bluff, Ark, and MT. George B. Turner, lawyer of Harlan, Ky. The thousands of mothers who use 1t them- selves and give it to their children would take too much space to mention.
 The reason they prefer Syrup Pepsn IS that 1t is a mild gentle laxative tonic that does not gripe-effective and yet so mild that babies can take it. Its tonic ingredients invigorate the body and strengthen the stomach and bow el muscles so that they again do their work naturally. If you have been a victim t,ot Of salts, pills and strong cathar- once use Syrup Pepsin.
 You can buy fifty cent or one dol lar bottle of any druggist, but before doing so you may want to try 1t free. If so, send your address to Dr. Cald- well and he will promptly forward a free sample bottle. Then, being con- vinced, do as others are doing and buy it in the regular way of your favorite druggist.
 pr. Caldwell does not feel that the purchase of his remedy ends his obli- gation. He has specialized in stomach. liver and bowel diseases for over forty years and will be pleased to give the reader any advice on the subject free or charge All are welcome to write him. Whether for the medical advice or the free sample address him pr. w B; Caldwell. 402 Caldwell building.

SAILS THROUGH SNOW TO 4 HEIGHT THAT BREAKS AMER
 ICAN RECORDS.
HAWLEY'S KNEE INJURED
Aeronaut Receives Painful Injury While Tramping Through Cana dian Wids on Way Back
 to Civilization.

New York, Oct. 29.-Ralph John stone is the pride of the land here abouts for fighting a furious 60-mile- an-hour storm in his Wright biplane. He climbed 5000 feet into the sky. surpassing by thousands of feet all previous American records, including his own of 1908, made last Tuesday. he was blown 55 miles from the grand stand, went through swirls of snow and sleet, fought the gale with all the force of the motor in his biplane and was driven backward at 15 miles an hour to Middle Island village. But he went on manipulating his machine just the same, and defying the fury of the gale, achieved an ascension that falls only 1S6 feet short of the worlds record height made by the Dutchman, Wynmalen, at Rheims.
 Hoxsey Also Up In Gale.
 Arch Hoxsey was also in the fight with the gale, and he went up 5000 feet. He was blown 25 miles from the aviation track, landing at Brent  wood, l.. I.
 The last the big crowd at Belmont park had seen of the two men was when their biplanes, floating back ward in closest companionship, be- came midget things against the low ering skies and then faded out of sight altogether. Hardly had this happened when the sky blackened: whirlwinds of dust and dead leaves were whipped up on the field, rain spatted and the gale was on.
 Aeronauts From America II.
 Quebec, Oct. 29.-When Hawley and Post reached here it was learned that the former had wrenched his right knee on the second day of their strug- gle back from the Canadian wilder ness. Hawley was limping painIully, as he had trudged nearly fifty miles after being injured.

 We were going through a dense tangle of brambles and fallen timbers and were making poor progress Thursday afternoon of last week. In working my way through leaped upon what seemed a solid log It crumbled beneath me and my whole weight was thrown suddenly upon my right leg, which buckled under me l can stand good deal of pain, but never had anything take hold of mo as that did.
 "A few hours after we lay down that night l began to suffer terrible pains in my right knee joint. I spent frightful night awake, worrying whether l would be able to push on the next morning. Fortunately, when I arose, was able to stand and move about, much to my relief"
 Hawley commented on the remark able fact that from five minutes after leaving St. Louis he and Post did not sight any other balloon"

Thaokeray's Satire.

Thackeray created quite erroneous
Impressions Of himself by often indulg
ing in irony In the presence Of people
who were incapable Of understanding
1t. One curious instance which he gave
was this: Thackeray had been dining
at the Garrick and was talking in the
smoking room after dinner with vari-
Gus club acquaintances. One Of them
happening to have left his cigar case
at home, Thackeray, though disliking
the man, who was notorious tuft
hunter, good naturedly offered him one
of his cigars. The man accepted the
cigar, but, not finding 1t to his liking,
had the bad taste to say to Thackeray,
IT say, Thackeray, you won't mind my
saying don't think much Of this
cigarT Thackeray, no doubt irritated
at the mans ungraciousness and bear
ing in mind his tuft hunting predilec-
lions, quietly responded, you ought
to, my good fellow, for It was given
me by q lord" Instead, bowever, Of
detecting the irony, the dolt immedi-
ately attributed the remark to snob-
bishness on Thackeray's part and to
the end Of his days went about declar-
ing that "Thackeray had boosted that
he had been given cigar by lord"

The Expansa of a Wife.

A wife is a decided addition to the
demands upon ones purse. In that
sense, however sensible and managing
she may be, she is expensive. But
everything worth having has its price
of one sort or another, and there are
some things which cost much without
which life is hardly worth living.
Said Theirs: Most men contemplate
making some self denial when they
marry. They think they will give up
such and such expensive pleasures.
Later on. when they discover that they
cannot do so, and at the same time
they lack the means to indulge. they
complain that 1t is the extravaganza
of their wives which causes the inccn-
venience."
Which wise saying is applicable to
men in other countries besides that Of
France.-New York American.

The negro housewife in the West
Indian Jungle finds housekeeping very
easy. Fruit and vegetables grow wild
oil about the hut and the river abounds
with fsh. On wash day all she has to
do is to pick a few Of the berries Of
the soap berry tree, take her clothes
to the river and use the berries as she
would use ordinary soap. Even her
cooking pots grow on the trees, the
calabasb cut In halves being used for
this purpose. Celabashes are used
also for bowls, basins and Jugs for
carrying water from the river, while
the small ones make excellent cups.
In the afternoon. when she is ready
for her cup of tea, the negress picks
half dozen leaves from the lime bush
growing at her door. boils them,
squeezes the juice from a sugar cane
for sweetening and the cocoanut sup
plies the milk Thus she has deli
cious cup of tea without depending on

the banana, plated and sewed togeth-
err as the old country people in this
country make their rag mats.
