GOES UP ON HIGH

1 There was a pretty custom
 among some of the ancients when
 a prominent citizen died, to send
 his valet along with him on the
 road to Paradise, and it was
 oftentimes necessary to resort to Fextreme methods to insure this i company for the departed. But
 in the territory of the China
 American Trading company, Ford
 dealers in Tientsin, China, they have discovered a much better aid to the deceased over the rough places on the trip to the promised land.
 It is a custom of the Chinese to burn various kinds of efigies at the funeral ceremonies of the rich. the more wealthy the de- parted the more elaborate the figures burned over his grave. These effigies represent every manner of thing such as human figures, horses, sedan chairs, tables loaded with money, etc. The figures usually conform to some of these stereotyped fash ions, but at the funeral of a Mir. Li, who died short time ago in Tientsin, and who was a very wealthy man. the bereaved fam fly outdid themselves and made an imitation of the deceased gentleman's Ford ear to be burned at his grave.
 This Ford effigy was made en- tirely of strong Chinese paper stretched on bamboo and reed frames. The car was complete in every detail. the pedals ac- curately placed, and all made of paper and bamboo. The interior | of the car was also accurate in detail, being carefully uphoI- stered in paper. The effigy of the driver as shown in the photo graph, was a work of art. The car was carried about three miles through crowded streets to the graveside where a match was ap- piled and it was consumed in a

COWBOY NOT YET EXTINCT
May Be Fewer Than Some Years Ago. but This Traveller Tells of Meet
 ing One.

'You mean to say" I began, "that there are still real cow" But as smiles were beginning to pass about the platform I desisted. realization beginning to dawn why the barber said that the men we had seen driv- ing cattle back in Kansas would be pleased to have been called cow puncherS.
 The trip at once began to assume new interest, and when the mine bar Der came back on the platform I eyed with which one contemplates a de ceitful man. But nothing could pene- trate his drawling sang-froid.
 At tank station farther along there was opportunity to stretch our legs; opportunity, also, to observe at close range a bronzed, dark-haired cow-puneher who had paused on his mustang to observe the train. The barber approached him confidently.
 "Neighbor," he said, T bought a gun in K. O., Mizoo. What do you think of it?"
 The puncher took the wicked A, balanced it in the palm of his hand twirled 1t around on his forefnger, and then brought 1t to bear upon tin can lying in the road about 20 feet away. BangI The can leaped into the air. Bangl It rolled five feet farther along. BangI Again 1t flew into the afr and rolled. BangI It rolled again. Bangl The can disap- peared in the dust.
 "It's good gun," said the puncher, handing 1t back, "only it shoots little high"
 , A little highI Rather nice criti- cism, thought. The barber snapped out the cylinder, reloaded the weapon and passed silently into the back ground. My impression was that he was avoiding some questions on my part relative to Kansas City bad men; but may have been wrong.
 We. began to fly through the level ground, perspectives on all sides dot ted with peaks upon which clouds rested. Suddenly along the trail ap- peared an altogether amazing, un- almost unbelievable spec tacle-two Indians jogging along on- horseback wearing moccasins, wide black trousers, red or pink shirts, their black hair secured by scarlet bands about their foreheads.-Scrib- ner's Magazine.

URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
BY LEE II. SMITH, NJ. d.


Uric acid Is now generally recog.
nized as the cause Of more diseases
han was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out Of order uric acid
accumulates within the body In super
abundance. The disordered kidneys
do not filter the poisons out Of the
blood, as they ought to do. and so the
poisons remain ir the blood and float
around until they find place to
lodge, In form of urate salts. The
thing to remember Is that you may
have rheumatism In any part Of ths
body--you may have pains anywhere
your back may ache and your head
may be dlzzy-but the trouble Is not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the first thing to do! You must
get that excess uric acid out Of your sys

Tablets, the splendid remedy which DR.
Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. ", has put on salt
