Haggard in face, and with his clothes tattered an individual walked into the office of police commssary and asked to be allowed to see him. When admit ted to the presence of that official, he began with the sensational announce ment that he had been w antcd' for up- ward of six years. He had been valet to the late Constant Coquelin and had committed theft. Addicted as he was to drink, and to the other habit, he felt that he was going mad, so he wished to give himself in charge. Some par tieulars were added, the truth of which was promptly confirmed after a brief investigation, and the strange visitor was conveyed to the infirmary at the prefecture of police.
 It was in 1903 that this man. who was in the service of Constant Coquelin as valet. and whom the great actor regard ed as perfectly honest was sent with q letter from his master to a lady friend The valet handed the missive~ to her and while she was engaged in writing d re- ply he took up a little box containing jewelry worth s4oo0, hid 1t under his overcoat and walked quietly off when the answer was given to him. The po- lice hunted after him for some time and finally abandoned the search in sheer despair.

A F able.

Once on time there was a man who kept a secret for many, many months He went to every one of his friends and told them of some. thing great and worthy tEat he was going to do,
 NOW" said he to each one. "I wish you would tell everybody you can, far and near. that it may spread and do good" And then he went his way
 Huh" said each one to himself. after the mans back w&s turned, does he think I am going to be his mouthpece and tell everybody what he is going to do? Am l going to be his press agent guess not; I'll keep it to myself" and he did; and as d result there was nothing said about the mans intentions until everything was done to his satisfaction.
 Moral: Blow your own horn loud enough and the rest of the band will desert you.

An Inoenieus Rest Cure.

Some managers crave responsibility as a child does sugar. Take it away from them and their spirits drop and they lose their stamina The office manager of vigorous wholesale house was once given months yaca. tion, supposedly to refresh his mind and get his thoughts on other lines. He left hale, hearty and yitaly sturdy man. He was supposed to be baskirg in the sunshine of mountain lake, taking life easy, far away from the toI and care of the greedy mart In reality. he was eaten alive by mos quitoes. worried to death for fear of business going wrong. and chafed by dragging impationce His very soul longed for the strife and his miser. able ennui drove him to aggravated liver troubles. In three weeks he re turned. blanched and haggard He was put to work. loaded to the guards with responsibility. and with ten hours toll per day he fattened like q corn-fed pig It was better than the most ingenious rest cure ever in. vented To this day the man dreads his enforced lay-off over Sunday Bookkeeper Magazine.

METHODS Uf THE H00KW0RM
Parasite a Most Obnoxious Guest in the Interior of Human
 Body

The hookworm's motto might well be. multum in parvo; compacted within it's tiny body, less than an inch long and looking like a bit of soiled coarse thread. are well-developed or gans-mouth, esophagus. intestinal ca nal, various glands, etc, to which the female adds capacity for several thou sand eggs.
 The mouth is cup shaped and bor- dered b. a fiattenod rim that can be squeezed up snugly against the intes- tine of it's host during feeding, and the strong, muscular esophagus thus becomes powerful and effective sue tion pump. Inside the mouth are two pairs of sharp chitinous lancets, and prominent at the rim is a single stiletto,like fang, the 'cOnical dorsal tooth with a long gland at it's base. When the hookworm is ready to eat it presses its mouth disk against the in testine, draws tiny piece of the mu- cous membrance into it's mouth, and punctures it with it's lancets and fang. Through the minute holes thus made the blood is sucked out The punctures are repeated many times in the course of meal, finally rid ding the bit of mucous membrance with holes, if not actually gouging it out. After the worm has dropped off, pyogenic bacteria frequently find lodg, ment in these holes, producing small ulcers. which often run together to form irregular rulcerations.-McClure's

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local application, as they cannot 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 infamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is iufammed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an intlamed fcondiUlon of the mucous surfaces
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by eatarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's s Catarrh Cure Send for circulars free.

Some attempt has been made to be-

Free Press and several other influential
newspapers that the railroads and other
interests propose to take an unusually

back the hands of progress. Possibly
this alarm Is not altogether warranted

The public service commission has been
given considerable power and its members
have exercised 1t In the interest of the
people to an extent that Is said to be un-
satisfactory TO certain interests In sew

present republican candidate for governor
received large support from these cor

and that he is in full sympathy with their
program. There are other Indications
which point in the direction of a coming
attempt to undo some Of the progressive
legislation of the past few years.
There is no corporation or interest in

this spirit should also be insured in the
