MT Milton made up his mind to break his worthy parlshloner Of that very deplorahle habit, and he gave Mir. Currler fair warning of his determina- ton.
 On the next Sunday he gave out an unusually long hymn. At its close Mir Curriers' head had fallen back on the railing of his pew, and his mouth was set for a fly trap. Quietly the parson rose in the pulpit and exclaimed in a voice of thunder, "Markv
 In an. instant Currier jumped to his feet and before he could realize where he was answered the supposed call upon him with an equally loud 'HellO"
 Perfectly regardless of him, Parson Milton continued: Mark, say, the perfect man, and behold the upright, for the end of that man Is peace. You will find these words in the Thirty. seventh Psalm and thIrty-seyenth verse"
 During the sermon that followed, Mark Cuuler 1t need not be added, was wide awake.

Sarcasm That Was Lost.

In his book, "A Wanderers Trail, ' A. L. RiGger Uucuusli0usly proves the old contention that an Englishman cannot see a joke, or at least that he cannot understand the American brand Of humor.
 It was while in san Francisco that Mir Ridger visited some friends in Sonoma county. Wandering around the ranch, he found in a creek what he took to be rich quartz, Great excite ment on the part of Mir. Ridgcr, then:
 Bidding my charming hosts farewell I returned to San Francisco. On my way there on the train | showed my gold @ quartz 10 some men sitting op- posite to me. One of them, having examined a piece with a critical and knowing eye, remarked seriously: Gee! You've got something good there! He followed up these words by adding that he hoped had marked the spot from which I had obtained the speci- mems. l looked at him with a dO-you- me-ror-a-teudgrG0ot sort of air and replied lOfttly, Why, sure l dId.' l had one piece of satisfaction when an as- saver in San Francisco to whom l had taken the stone dryIy remarked, Shasta mica; tons Og 1t in the neighbOrhood,' and that was that l was not the only fool in the world, remembering my vis-a-vis ou the train

The fact two big dredges are now digging near Dawson, and that one may dig all winter, illustrates how great has been the strides in the work of mining in Yukon com pared to conditions here in the memorable Christmas of the first winter after the strike. More hy- d.o-electric power would assure working the placers all winter every year with several dredges, and 8 steady yield through the winter as well as summer would mean a vastly increased annual output and a far greater revenue for all who make this their home. - Dawson News.

But Her Attempt to Be chatty Brought
 an Embarrassing Moment.
 This is an extract from letter writ ten by a woman who is willing to share A good joke, even if the laugh Is at her own expense:
 Tt was a damp. windy day-the sort of day that turns straight straggly blond halr like mine Into a mass of strings and ends that stick out about the face and neck with frlghtful effect, [ was downtown on a shopping eXpedi- ton that was exceptionally trying, and l knew looked so bad that l care fully avoided all chance of glances into mirrors. for I was sure I could not, un. der the circumstances, Improve my ap, Dearance much. Recklessly 1 entered a tearoom with friend whom hap pened to meet
 As placed my shopping bag on the floor near the table at which We were to sit. another bag, exactly Ike my own. was put beside it. Quite naturally my glance followed the hand and arm uD to the face of my nelghbor, and as l met her look l said to myself, She has hair just like mine-sticking out in every direcuOn-and she looks even worse than I do, poor thingF
 Naturally. my heart went out to her in a great wave of sympathy. We smiled simultaneously as our troubled eyes met and I said aloud and quite distinctly. If we are not careful we shall get our shopping bags mixed!
 The moment the words were out Of my mouth I wished very earnestly that the floor would mercifully open and let me through. It did not require the sub ducd snickcr from tue nearby tables to awaken me to the realization that l had been addressing the image of my self in the mirror of which the entire side of the shop was formed. Do you get the picture?"-Youths Companion,

YUKoN's CHRISTMAS

Yukou's Nuleude brings 8 message Of good cheer 1t WIS ever thus Since the sourdougbs pIodded oyer the mountain barrerss and estab- ltshsd the first outQosts, the Epir- ir cr hope has shoue brigsht The unflicke-ing light of promise abides with the Yukoncr. He gets enough of the worlds goods to keep him in comfort. He faces the world s battles confident that the fighting i.self is in itself the great reward of the game. Some there be who win long pokes and are counted sue cesssul The others are quite as happy even though they do not control the long sacks. Those who arc richest in Yukon touch elbows with those who are in the struggle with lesser means. The democracy or the realm is oae of the charac- tsrtsti,s. And thus when the Christ mas tide flows full, Iukoners ride upon IS crest as one. The con- tiuueL prosperity Of the region is an eysr-qressing invitation to the world to come and share the bless iugs. Poorer lands may envy Iu- kon, land of plenty and promise land over which the star of destiny shines ever respleudeut like unto the srur of Bethlehem land where today rings naug4t but the message Of "Peace on Earth, Good VIII To- ward lLau.''-Dawsoa Daily News.

cnnsnI kinn David.

This amusing anecdote of Lamartine is related by the Baroness BOnde in her volume of letters. Shortly after the revolution of February he wrote on the blank leaves of his pocketbOok the names of his proteges and sent the list to be provided with places immediate Iy. Previously, however, 1t seems, he had scrubbed "David' on the page, and the head of the cabinet appointed the said David consul at Bremen. The postulant however, never came for ward. and, though the poet did not like being disturbed, Nj. Hetzel was obliged to ask who was the David on his list.
 "He who danced before the ark, " was the answer.
 ooh, dear, I have gozetted him to Bremen"
 How very singularI l meant him for a subject for mediation, not for nomination. But you can cancel it."
 The moniteur registered the change, but few knew that the consul appoint, ed to Bremen was King David!

CAPT. BoY-ED's WARNING.

Capt Boy-Ed, late naval attacAe to the German embassy at Washing ron. who departed from the United States the other day at the invita- tf3n of the aforesaid United states, gave a parting warning to Ameri- cans that the time will come when the government would have to hold newspapers iu check. h other words, Capt. Boy-Ed would have it understood that he is the victim of American public opinion as de veIoped and educated by the An ericau press.
 Twp thoughts are suggested by .his warning from this representa- tive Of modern Prussiau mtlitarism. t1p That he is i'll at ease in a country where public opinion is the sovereign. l2) That all things which work to interfere with the success of German military plans, n matter where they might be in the working or the laws of state or morality might be violated in their cousummation, are outrageous.
 For the sake of argument let us coucede that public opinion com psIIed the retirement from AmeTi- can soil of this erstwhiIe represen- tative of the German Imperial navy in the United States, and that the newspapers created the opinion though that is by no means the whole story. Then what is the out rage for which the Fourth Estate is responsible?

The newest of the new commissioned officers strolIcd into the scrgeants' mess to have a look round. He looked eX- ceedingly young and small and had q complexion which @ society beauty might well have envied. The middle aged warriors were not 0t all pleased at having to kotow to this striplIng, and one gruB voiced sergeant observed audibly, And a little child shall lead us." The young officer did not appear to notice the remark and left the room. Some time later when the men had all settled down for the night, playing cards, etc. he again entered and, ad- dressing the sergeant, said: You will assemble the men immediately for a twenty mile route march. And a little child shall lead you, only he'll be on horseback and you lazy duGers will walk"

Get the Habit Of
Drinking Hot Water
Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right
with the system full
Of poisons.

Millions OF folks battle internally
now instead Of loading their system
with drugs. What's an inside bath?g
you say. Well, it is guaranteed to per
form miracles If you could believe
these hot water enthusiasts.
There are vast numbers OF men and
women who, Immediately upon arising
in the morning, drink a glass of real
hot water with a teaspOonful Of lime
stone phosphate in It. This is a very
excellent health measure. It Is in
tended to flush the stomach, liver, kid
neys and the thirty feet Of intestines
OF the previous days waste, sour bile
and indigestible material left over In
the body which, II not eliminated every
day, become food for the millions OF
bacteria which infest the bowels, the
quick result is poisons and toxins
which are then absorbed into the
blood causing headache, bilious at
tacks, foul breath. bad taste, colds,
stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleep.
lessness. impure blood and all sorts
OF ailments.
People who feel good one day and
badly the next, but who simply can
not get feeling right are urged to OBJ
tain a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from any druggist or store
keeper. This will cost very little but
is sufficient to make anyone a real
crank on the subject Of internal sani.
tation
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing. sweetening and
freshening, so limestone phosphate
and hot water act on the stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels. It Is vast
ly more important to battle on the in
side than on the outside, because the
skin pores do not absorb impurities in
20 the blood. while the bowel pores do.

KIDNEY TROUBLE
NOT RECOGNIZED

An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies. in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so COM
mon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease.
According to this it would seem that .
medicine for the kidneys, possessing real
healing and curative properties, would be
a blessing to thousands.
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the well
known kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
is remarkably successful in sickness caused
by kidney and bladder troubles. 1t is mild
and gentle in its action and its healing in
fuence is soon noticed in most cases.
There is no other remedy like Swamp
Root. It will surely and effectively over
come kidney, liver and bladder troubles
and you can depend upon it.. Go to any
drug store and get a bottle so as to start
treatment today. You will soon zee q
marked improvement.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.
Kilmer & Co, Binghamton, N. Y, for q
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper-Adv.
