The mere fact that s. S. s., the famous
blood purifier drives out disease is a
worlds story, a topic Of conversation Wher-
ever men get together.
They wonder why, simply because most
remedies are mystifed and put before them

pay too much attention TO possibilities and
not enough to real, homespun- accomplish
ment S. S. S. Is a remedy Of our fathers.
1t has a history that IS written deeply IN
mems minds because it has done the work,
driven out deep seated disease, revived
hope, put the o. K. on appearance and
.Iamped down tight any effort Of germs
to get the upper hand. Any sore spot on
the skin is an immediate demand for
s. S. s. since the first principle Of this
famous remedy is to strike out for places

Peasants Hold Much Land.

The departments area is about 1855
square miles-a little more than twice
that Of Rhode Island; and the popula-
ton numbers more than half a million.
Peasant holdings abound Trig, in
tensely worked, though small farms
ringing the roads, the rivers Somme
Escaut, Sambre, Aisne, Marine, Ourcq
and Oise and the miles and miles of
interlacing canals. give the American
visitor a vastly different idea of the
European peasant from that which he
cherished at home. In northern France
probably, the peasant proprietor reach
es his fullest dignity; and his industry,
thrift and pleasing appearance remove
him from the class of objects that de-
mand pity.
Laon is the capital of Aisne. It is
built all on top of a Y-shaped hill, the
spur of the being given over to for
tlfications and military camps. Laon is
one of the several Europeans town

She had a great number of cats and
horses around here, which she ap-
peared to hold in peculiar generation.
In this strange little Oriental court
many Europeans of note came to
visit her and to listen to her brilliant
conversation, but many made the trip
in vain, for she frequently refused to
open her doors to outsiders The Wis

came to see her, they found her lying
alone where she had died a few hours
before. All her attendants had fed
with what booty they could lay their
hands on, and the missionary and the

in the deserted courtyard of her con-

One of the most picturesque figures
of the English aristocracy of the
nineteenth century is Lady Hester
Lucy Stanhope, who was born on
March 10, 1776 She was a brilliantly
beautiful girl, who early showed her
independence and willfulness of char
acter Her early training was some
what neglected, for her father was
absorbed in politics and her mother
thought only of two things, her Golf
fure and the opera. When she was
still a young woman she went to live
with her uncle, the famous William
Pitt, the younger, whom she served as
housekeeper and secretary.
In spite of her willful disposition
the famous statesman got along very
we'll with his niece. 81 let her do as
she pleases," he once said, for If she
were resolved to cheat the devil she
would do it, Among his last words
as he lay on his deathbed were these:
Dear soul, I know she loved me"
The death Of Pitt left Lady Hester,
now thirty years old, with a comfort
able income and no ties. She accord
ingly set out for the East with little
party of admiring friends. AS she
progressed her party grew in number,
and when she had arrived at the Holy
Land they all made stately pilgrim
age to Jerusalem. Finally, in 1914,
Lady Hester settled on Mount Leb-
anon, where q local pasha accorded
her the ruins of a convent. Lady Hes
ter had houses and gardens put up,
fortified with an outer wall, and here
she and her retainers lived a strange,
independent existence She gradually

There is at the present time living
at Bilboa, Spain, a family of seven
who between them possess no fewer
than 1874 fingers. One of them has %
fingers, another q, while of the re-
naming five each can boast couple
of hands with 10 fingers apiece.
The last surviving member of what
was perhaps the record family with
regard to weight was Charles Atkins,
who died a few years ago at Harrow.
He weighed 476 pounds, his brothers,
who predeceased him, being no less
than 504 pounds and $50. Another
heavy family was the Dudflelds, one
of whom, Robert, a brewers dray-
man, weighed at his death 448 pounds,
brother, whose 420 pounds was
equalled. If not topped, by their two
sisters.
For holiness of stature the family
of Hassan Ali, who some while since
was on exhibition In this country,
would be hard to beat. His grand
father, the tallest of the family. stood
s feet IL inches, seven inches more
than his father whose height was
s feet 4 inches, Hassan All himself
being content with a modest 8 feet
inches.
The family record for longevity has
not been beaten since Robert Parr,
the great grandson of the celebrates
Thomas Parr, died In 1857 at the age
Of 124. His father lived to celebrate
his Tooth birthday anniversary; his
grandfather reached 49, while his
great grandfather was 1872 at the time
of his death. If a long-lived family
of Wisbech, named Stockdale, cannot
in the mere number of years compete
with the PARIS, 1t assuredly holds the
record for golden weddings, of which
five have been celebrated in the
family within comparatively recent
years.
One of the most notable instances
of proliflcness is that mentioned II
the Harleian Miscellany of a Scotch
weaver and his wife, who were tbs
parents of 60 children, 80 of whom
reached their majority. Fortunately
four men of the neighborhood eacf
adopted 10 children. the remainder
being brought up by their parents.

pales before that of Russian, War

"I had an extraordinary experience
with the late Frank Jones, of New
Hampshire, only two or three years
before his DEATH" said Charles e.
Hall. of New York, to me recently.
Mr.. Hall was associated for some
time editorially with the historians
of the States of California and Ore
gon. Later he was engaged for sew
eral years in the preparations of the
biographies of men of large business
achievements which were to be incor-
porated In an extensive biographical
cyclopedia. 1t was the desire of the
editor of this cyclopedia that an es-
pecially careful biography of Frank
s. Jones be prepared, for Mr.. Jones
was esteemed one of the ablest of the
intellectual and business forces Of
his time in New England and he
also was of high political authority.
having served In Congress as Dem
ocrat from a Republican State and
having been prominently associated
some years with the Democratic ma
tional committee.
"I called by appointment upon Mr..
Jones at his apartments which were
In the very fine hotel which he built
at Portsmouth, N. H." said Mr.. Hall.
THAT little city was his home. There
his principal business was carried on,
outside of that associated with the
great corporations with which he was
also identified. l knew in a vague
way that he had been very influential
In the Improvement and development
of railway systems whose terminals
were at Boston. / knew also that he
had served in Congress and had been
esteemed as perhaps the most in
fiuential Democrat in northern New
England.
"I was anxious to get from Mr..
Jones some facts associated with his
beginning of active business life. I
had heard that he was a poor boy.
He received me very kindly, but he
said to me that a man who was so
engrossed as he was In many bust
ness undertakings and who. besides
his manufacturing business, was
greatly occupied with railroad af-
fairs and to some extent with poll
tics, did not have the time to recall
what his early experiences were. He
lived in the present day and not in
the past. He said that he could re-
member how he got into railroads
and he had a very vivid recollection
