A Risky Place For Doctors.

Medical skill is at rather low ebb
throughout Russia and not without
cause. An American physician. tempt
ed by the enormous fees so frequently
paid by the nobility, went to st. Peters
burg and within year had lucrative
practice Then he was called in to at
tend a baron who was suffering from
lung trouble. The doctor gave his pa
tent the best of care and skill. but the
baron died. and the widow promptly
sued the doctor for damages for un-
skilled treatment. The unlucky Ameri-
can was sentenced to pay a fine Of
1000 roubles and undergo an imprison-
ment of thirty days. Under the cir
cumstances II is not surprising that
the physician left Russia as soon as
he got out Of Jail. and nothing could
tempt him to return.

Historic SPOT at Ems.

On the riverside promenade at Ems
there is stone inscribed: "13 JUL. 1870
8 Uhr 10 Min Morgens." This marks
the exact spot where Wilhelm l. and
Count Benedict terminated the inter
view which led the French to declare
war. After the Franco-Prussian war
the old emperor often returned to Ems.
On one occasion his doctor mentioned
that the municipality wished to COM
memorate the interview with Benedict
ii. which they considered the most
memorable event in the annals of the
town He was instructed to meet the
emperor on the promenade by the
Lain at a. m. the following day. Viii
helm then said: During my lifetime
let nothing be erected to recall that
sorrowful struggle. When am dead
do as you please. Since you wish to
know where l dismissed Benedict it
was here under this tree at 9:10 in the
morning" And. saying this. he placed
his foot on the spot where the monu
ment now stands.

IL suppose it is the journey that a

once in lifetime?"
"Well, as rule ] suppose it would
not be taken more than once. You
see, my mother and I are thinking
of taking a trip to Japan, and she

The Wonders cf Color.

A small and simple experiment can
be made by any reader which will go
far to convince him or her what
debt we owe to color and what good
thing it is we have sunlight. which
enables our eyes to take advantage Of
the beautiful hues of nature. Make a
room quite dark and then burn some
carbonate of soda in the flame Of a
bunsen gas burner. 1t will burn with
an orange yellow light sufficiently
strong to illuminate everything in the
room. but you will realize with a sud-
den shock that. bright though the light
is. all distinctions of color have van
ished. Only light and shade remain.
A crimson carnation. blue violet. a
red tablecloth. a yellow blind-all look
gray or black or white. The faces Of
those present look positively repulsive,
for all natural color has disappeared.
No other experiment will so well con-
vince those who have witnessed it
how great loss would be that Of our
sense for color.

cions of the missionaries and We're con-
stantly on the lookout for something in
their houses which would exert a bale.
full influence upon native visitors. A
Persian lady. calling one day on an
American missionary lady, wished to
sit in a rocking chair, which was some
thing she had never seen before. She
got up into it with her feet and at
tempted to squat upon her heels. as
she would have done upon the floor.
with the result that she and the chair
both took tumble backward. Hence
there went abroad a report that the
missionaries kept in their houses a
machine for converting people to Chris
tianity.-Los Angeles Times.

snags Foreigner Strikes In Trying to
Master Enulsh,

VdSS0T Gu9iiSus
In spite of certain undeniable dis
advantages the English language
steadily makes headway. There are
few tongues so hard to master. One
foreigner who has had his troubles. but
has won his way to a perfect command
Of the language. has presented in the
Bookman some of the humors and
some of the difficulties which belong
to this richest Of living languages.
AS boy / heard a fantastic Turkish
legend which to my mind aptly illus
trates the actual facts concerning the
origin and formation Of modern Eng
liSh.
After creating the first parents Of
each Of the races. the story runs. Allah
took large piece of meat and. cut
ting it into slices. distributed them
among all the people to serve them as
tongues. For some reason the English
man was absent when the others re-
ceived their share. At last he came
into the presence of his Maker and
in mute humility begged him to put
tongue into his mouth. But nothing
was left of the meat. So Allah was
obliged to cut little piece from the
tongues Of all the others. and, joining
these pieces, he fashioned a tongue for
the Englishman.
The photography of the English Ian
guage does not by any means contain
all Of foreigners troubles. One of
the most perplexing characteristics of
the English tongue is the fact that. as
meanings. My dictionary gives to the
verbs see. lead. hold and draw four
teen. eighteen, nineteen and thirty-tw0
meanings respectively. Now. for for
eigner to be able to distinguish all
these various meanings is 2 tremer-
dous task. The words which have
only one or two meanings are COM
paratively few. Is 1t surprising that
foreigner is often puzzled by the nu-
merous and sometimes opposite mean
ings Of many an English word? just
as an illustration. consider the perplex-
ity Of a persevering Frenchman over
the meaning of the word fast"
"Zis horse. sair. he go queek. What
you say?"
Eyes; he is fast horse"
"Ah, pardon. monsieur. but your
friend say he make fast his horse and
he tie him to a post so he not go at
ALL"
Every true: he is made fast by being
tied"
"Ah. Eat cannot be. He cannot 60
fast. But what you call a man that
keeps fast?'
"Oh. he is good man that does not
eat on fast days"
"But l have seen one bon vivant,
who eat and drink and ride and do
everything. Ze people say he is a bad
man-he is very fast"
True, that is called living a fast
life"
"Ah, certainement. Zen all re days
Of his life must be fast days"
'No, of course
"Eh bien. Does he eat every day."
Certainly he does
"Zen how can he keep fast?"

CAUSES MUCH DISEASE
Advice About Stomach Troubles and
How 10 Relieve HEN.

Do net neglect indigestion which
may lead TO all sorts of ills and COM
plications. An eminent physician once
said that ninety-fve per cent of all the
ills OF the human body have their or
igin in a disordered stomach.
Our experience with ReXall Dyspep-
sia Tablets leads US to believe them
to be among the best most dependable
remedies known fer the relief of in
digestion and chronic dyspepsia. Their
ingredients are soothing and healing
to the inflamed membranes of the
stomach. They are rich in pepsir, one
of the greatest digestive aids known to
medicine. The relief they afford is
very prompt. Their use with persist
ency and regularity for a short time
tends to bring about a cessation of
the pains caused by stomach disor-
ders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets help to in
sure healthy appetite, to aid digestion,
and thus promote nutrition. AS evidence
of our sincere faith in Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets, We ask you TO try them
at our risk. If they do not give you
entire satisfaction, we will return you
the money you paid US for them, with
out question or formality. They come
in three sizes, prices % cents, 80 cents
and S1.00 Remember, you can obtain
them only at our store-The Rexall
