A DETECTIVE STORY.

American Police Officials.

One They Tell In London on Two
American Police Officials.
AS an illustration of the good nature
of Scotland Yard, they tell this story
in London:
Many years ago two American detec-
tives CHANGED to be in London to-
gether. awaiting the extradition Of
criminals who had been arrested in
England for offenses committed in the
United States. The Hotel Victoria
was then American headquarters in
London, and one evening the two
day, fell asleep side by side on
divan in the big smoking room of the
hosiery. An American humorist
found a pair Of handouts in the office
of the manager of the hotel and pro-
ceeded to shackle the pair together.
when for two or three hours they
slumbered peacefully while the guests
Of the hotel. American and English.
including the ladies. came to gaze upon
the scene.
When the detectives finally awak-
ened about I O'Clock in the morning
it was impossible to find key to the
handouts and hence impossible to
liberate them. They would not hear
of sending to a police station for as
sistance lest the story of their ridicu-
lous plight get out. but they had conf:
dence that Froest. who was then a
plain detective inspector, would rot
betray them. A messenger to Scot
land Yard. near by. learned that Froest
had gone home long before. but got
his address several miles away in the
suburbs. An American newspaper
man who knew Froest reached his
home by cab after 2 o'clock in the
morning. He was awakened from
slumber and without protest came all
the way to the Victoria and released
his fellow craftsmen.-NewY York Sun.

parisians' Bread

There is no city in the world whore
so much bread is consumed rs in Paris,
1t is estimated that every inhahitant
eats Que pound day on the averag e.
Even in past centuries the French
especially Parisinns-had horror of
stale bread And. as in those days
people manufactured their own bread.
they had a curious way of making Ii
palatable Strange as II may seem. the
bread they prepared-huge round or
square slabs-was used as dish on
which the meat was carved and bore
the name of ''tranchoirs." or ''tailloirs."
The juice OF the meat having pene-
trated into the bread impaired pleas
ant taste and prevented it from becom-
ing dry.

The Oldest Order.

What Is the oldest order in ex-
istence? The claim is made for that of
the holy sepulcher. 1t appears that
no date or the name of Il founder can
be assigned to the Order Of the Holy
Sepulcher. though there Is n legendary
tradition that traces its origin to the
time of Charlemagne. In the middle Of
the last century. however, when the
Latin patriarchate Of Jerusalem was
established, the office Of grand mas
ter of the order was transferred to it
by Pope Plus IN. who many years
later. in 1868. created by statute three
ranks OF the order-the grand cross.

Asking for
Medical Advice

comparatively broken down by old
age. What would you advise me to
do?
My dear Sir: do not teach any
system of physical culture. The only
physical culture believe in is to have
something to do every day that calls
into play both the mental and physi-
cal powers. Something that you are
interested in. Something you believe
in. Eat frugally. At your age use
meat sparingly. Make no use of mar
cotics of any sort. Drink cold water
freely, and if you wish to do exactly
as / do, keep a bottle of Peruna in the
house all the time. At the slightest
appearance OF cold, or sneezing. or
cough, chill. or stomach arrangement.
take a dose of Peruna before each
meal for a few days until the symp-
toms disappear. Also use the cold
water towel bath every morning, de-
scribed in the Ills of Life, sent gratis.
FROM A DocToR:-A doctor
writes me as to the remedy Katarno:
have been reading your articles in
the newspapers lately and / see that
you are putting up the old-time Peruna
under a new name. While the old-time
Peruna was in its glory / used to pre-
scribe il frequently for my patients.
But since the change made in the for
mula in which a laxative was added, /
have not been certain whether had
better prescribe IL or not. / am anx-
ious. however. to prescribe Katarno.
for I believe it to be one of the best
tonics | ever knew of. In doing this
can I send my patients to the drug
store, or must they go to Mcdonald
Steube Co., as indicated in your let
ter?
My Dear Doctor:-AIl wholesale
druggists keep Katarno. Any retailer
who does not keep IL in stick could

son your patients cannot get Katarno

They Cost Little, but They Are Made
From Old Iron Horseshoes.
An interesting feature of Chinese in
dustry is the making of knives and ra-
Zors from old horseshoeS. The local
blacksmiths in the interior cities and
towns supply the great population of
the empire with knives, razors and
scissors of an inferior quality at :,
very small cost. This cutlery comes
from small shops. where only one Or
two men are employed, usually the
proprietor and his sons, and is chiefly
made from old horseshoes imported
from England and the continent. A
discarded steel shoe offers the best

smiths prefer the old shoes of soft iron
that come from Glasgow and Ham.

It Is the story of the author, who

and shoulders, especially in the spring
of the year, but more or less all the

will form. but mostly the pimples are
large and red. Is there anything / can
do to get rid of them?
Dear Madam: You should do every
thing possible to regulate the organic
functions of your body. The bowels
should be kept regular. The diet should
consist largely of fresh raw vege-
tables. fruits. and outdoor exercise
should be taken every day. Every
thing that worries or frets the mind
should be strictly avoided. II you will
follow this for one month and take a
tablespoonful of Peruna before each

prefer not to recommend any local
treatment for the pimples until after
