CASTOR I A Tor Infants and Children, The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST "Eugenics," Science of Race tmprevt- ment . "Eugenics" Is a word composed from Greek words by Francis Galon, an English scientist, and defined by him as the science that deals with everything relating to the Improve ment of a race. Its aim Is to repre sent each class or sect by Ha best specimens, and then to allow these to work out their common clvlllratlon In their own way. If "eugenics" was practiced the aver age quality of a nation would be raised to that of Its better part now, and men of an order of ability now rare would become more frequent, be cause the level out of which they rose would Itself have been raised. Among the ways In which the best specimens of the race may be pre served, marriage Is one of the most important. If marriages unsuitable from the eugenic point of view were viewed with disfavor, few would be made. Mr, Gallon's new word la really sim ply another name for what Darwin called "natural selectlon"an4 Herbert Sp?ncer denominated "the survival of the Attest." He, however, thinks that the Improvement of mankind is a mat ter that the race should take up Intel ligently and scientifically and not leave to nature's operation alone. Hearty Farewell. The old friends had enjoyed their three days together. In spite of the fact that tact was not a conspicuous quality of either of them. "You have quite a pretty place here, John," said the guest, as he took a final look about him on the morning of his departure. "Quite a pretty plaee, though it looks a bit bare as yet" "O, that '8 because the trees are so young," said the host, comfortably. "I hope they'll have grown to a good size see how much Improved the place will be," and they shook hands with mutu al affection and good-will. Youth's Companion. Making Cheap Brlcke. Bricks are now being made of elean sand and ground quicklime that are said to be as substantial as granite, They cost $2.60 per 1,000. The mixed Ingredients are forced Into a strong cy linder mold by means of a screw. After the air has been sucked from the cylinder hot water Is admitted, the rock being formed by the resulting pressure and heat. Country Life In America. Goldfish and Mosquitoes. Prof. W. L. Underwood of the Mass achusetts Institute of Technology re ports that mosquito larvae are a favor ite food for goldfish, and that the In troduction of goldfish into many small streams of New England where mos- i qultoes breed would be preferable to the use of kerosene in destroying the pest. Freak Lightning. Lightning at Cape Neddlck village, York, Me., played a peculiar freak recently. A bolt struck the house of Silas Norman, passed through the body of a mason named Fernald, who was working In the house, killed a dog at the tatter's side, and set fire to the building. Fernald was critically burned. Languages in England. Vp to the commencement of the reign of Edward I., all letters, even of the most private nature, were writ ten in Latin. About the time of Ed ward's accession, French, which had been the spoken language of the court from the time of the Conquest, began to be used in written correspondence. Peaches and Snow. On the morning of May 15, 1834, the people of Bennington, Vt, awoke to find the ground covered with snow to a depth of fully six Inches. The ap ple and peach trees were then In bloom and the scene presented was. In the wor d of the chronicler, "gorgeous but far from encouraging." Destruction of Pompeii. Pompeii was partly demolished by an earthquake In G3 A. D. It was after ward rebuilt, but was overwhelmed by an eruption of Vesuvius on the night of Aug. 24, 79. The' ashes buried the whole city to a depth of 90 to 125 feet. Life in Korea. Tea is almost unknown in Korea. The diet consists principally of rice, pork, and dog meat. Beds are not used; the natives sleep on tho floor, which Is covered with oiled paper. Valuable Silver Gray Fox. Joseph Ganion, of Colebrook, N. IU recently trapped a silver gray fox In the Colebrook district. He values the skin of the animal at 1200, and re fused an offer of $125 for It. A Difficult Feat. A German Inn keeper on the Swiss border has undertaken, as a result of a wager, to roll a barrel full of wine across Switzerland and Italy to Rome. The Smallest Ponies. The two smallest ponies In the world were recently exhibited In Ham burg. They are so small a man can carry both of them at once. An English county Judge recently re marked : "Not a single case comes In to court but what there Is perjury on one side or the other." The average man will die for want of air In live minutes; for want of water in a week; for want of sleep in ten days. A man without much Is usually p;'n,! to enst his lot with a woman who ' . lots more. For twenty years I suffered with bleeding and itching pilen; at times was confined to the house for more than a month. Two years ago I began using San-Cura Ointment and one SOo bottle made a firm and permanent cure, and have not been troubled since., I am glad to give this testimony. Rev. W. F.

Under the caption, "Good Advlcs From Senator Knox," the editor of the Erie Dally Times says: "United States Senator Knox, in a brief Interview on the political situa tion In Pennsylvania, stated to a Pitts burg Dispatch representative Wednes day that he did not see any reason for resorting to any reform movement to regulate any evils that may exist In the Republican party. The senator stated In a fow, but well chosen words, his Idea of the situation, and It wait for tho Republicans to tako care of their own affairs and to let the Demo crats do the same thing. "There are. of course, a good many people who call themselves reformers, but who ar mostly soreheads, dlsnp polnted aspirants for office or hopeful Democrats who are anxious for a broth In the Republican ranks for no other reason than that they may profit there by. Senator Knox Is a safe, thorough going, highly respected official, and It did not take htm long to size up tht situation and put It in the proper HsM before the people of this common wealth. The Republican party will at tend to whatevor reforms are neces sary, and there will b no disposition shown to prevent all sincere reformer! and good Democrats going along In the band wagon, but the leader of the bnnd will be a Republican, and the Republi cans will attend to the necessary re forms themselves. That much may as well be understood first as last" The soreness begins to go and the pain to stop from the moment you take the first dose of Thompson's Barosma or Kidney Cure. No opiate of any form is UBed in Its manufacture. Thompson's Barosma in absolutely lurtnloss and guaranteed to cure all d lipases of the kidneys, liver and bladder, also palpita tion of the heart, nervous debility and female weakness.
