'Ono of the oddest characters I i'Vt;r met while eugaged in chari-V.-A.i work,' said the secretary of an aid society iu the Detroit Free Press, 'was a certain Mr. well, Jones will auswer, although that was not his name. In the small town where 1 lived there was a shiftless family, sadly in need of help, aud I took it upon myself to sod that they were furnished mauy things that they needed in the way of household supplies. "Among those that I approach "1 for help was Mr. Jones, who was probably the richest man in the town. He thought the mat ter over a few minutes, and then aunouueed that ho would give something. The next day when I went around with a wagon to collect the supplies that I had been promised, I was provoked aud somewhat amused as well, when Mr. Jones handed me a a cake of soap as his contribution. Noiv I will admit that the family 1 was trying to help was greatly in need of this necessary article of the toilet, but I had hoped that Mr. Jones would do better, be hides, I had grave doubts that the recipients would appreciate the gift. ' It ran along for some time, and matters went from bad to worse with the family I had help ed. Something had to bo done for them, and thinking that a per sonal visit might soften Mr. Jones's heart I invited him to visit the family with me aud see the abject, poverty they were in. Ho consented, and wo start ed at i nee for the hovel. The family, which consisted of a shift less husband, his wife, who was not much better, and live small children, occupied a single room, aud when I got Mr. Jones inside I considered that I nad made a ten strike and that now he cer tainly would do something sub stantial iu the way of help. I uo ticed that his eyes were wauder ing around the room, apparently takhig iu every detail, aud sud denly he pounced upon something and held it up to my gaze. It was the cake of soap that he had contributed, without one sign of having been used. Taking out his knife, he cut the cake in two, dug out a 10 gold piece that was ia the centre, put it in his pocket aud walked out without saying a word. "It was certainly a good lesson on the value of using soap, but 1 fear it was lost upon the shiftless family, for I never noticed any change for the better iu their personal appearance." WILL BUILD A $50,000 SANI TARIUM. The Sisters of St. Joseph' who recently bought the Stroininger farm in Cumberland Valley, Bed ford county have decided to erect a $50,000 sanitarium, instead of ono which will cost but20,000,as at first intended. Work on the building will likely be commenced next fall, It is the intenti m to put the property in tho hands of a skilful landscape gardner, who will employ live or six men, aud they will havo it in shapo for tho building when work is begun on tho structure. It is the opinion of those who are in a jsitiou to know that one of the finest and best equi plied sanatorium in the world will eventually be, estab lished on this plot. Thero are three valuable springs ou the premises ono of which is equal, if not Mtipnrlor, to tho famous one at Carlsbad, aud all of tho aurround jugs are most suitable for the purpose for which the tract wan purchased.

" This is true to a certain extent, but when we consider how much more educated, refined and sober the whole nation has be come, aud what vast strides have been made in science and all kinds of knowledge, then in com parison society seems to have made little, if any, progress. There may be now as many wise, charming and brilliantly clever people as there were then, but they have not increased in num ber, though society has. Certainly among men it is no longer thought a liue thiug to drink too much. Iusobriety hap pens very seldom, and when it does, is considered a disgrace. iiut women drink more than they did fifty years ago, not only wine but spirits and liquors. Per haps the now common practice of smoking cigarettes habitually may tend to increase this evil. Then the taking of drugs seems much more common. Tnere is a greater impatience at the least pain. A slight headache, often caused only by racking about af ter too many pleasures, is made an excuse for taking antipyrine, or some other soothing medicine, with results disastrous to heart aud nerves. As to manners, it is :urious to observe how far less they have improved in society !,heu among those from whom good manners at least expected Except iu the case of pauic, it was less disagreeable to be in a common crowd at the eutrauce of an exhibitiou orthreitre than in a large drawing-room at the pal ace before the new regulations were made. Good man ners are often to be met in a 'bus or a third class railway carriage. There you are welcomed with kiud hands stretched out to lift your bird-cage or bandbox. It is surprisingly rare to meet with common civility in a first class carriage. SAVED HEIl CHILD'S LIFE. "In three weeks our chubby little boy was changed by Pneu monia almost to a skeleton," writes Mrs. W. Watkins, of Pleas nut City, O. "A terrible cough Mit ill, that, in spite of a good'doc tor's treatment for several weeks grew worse every day, We then used Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, aud our darling was soon sonnd aud well. Wo are sure this grand medicine saved his life." Millions know its the only sure cure for coughs, colds, nod all lungs diseases. W. S. Dickson guarautees satisfaction. 5 )c, 1.00. Trial bottle free. SAW A BATTLE. Champ Clark's first glimpse of an army was at Mackville, Ky., near his boyhood home, says a Washington dispatch to the St. Louis Globo-.Democrat. He was telling a caller about it. Some one had charged him to take a bunch of tine horses to a neigh boring thicket for purposes of concealment. "I was astride & big sorrel," said Mr. Clark, "when I happen ed to turn my head to the west. There I saw somethiug that sur prised me. It was Morgan and his men riding down the hill at a furious pu-e, and up another hill of the gravel road. I did not pro pose to miss a chance of seeing that army if it cost me every one of our horses. So I waited to see just what was going to happen. "Suddenly out rode seven horsemen, who began firiug within pistol shot at that Bdvauc ingcolumn. It was as reckless a thing as I ever witnessed: When the smoke had cleared away I saw six of tho seven horsemen riding off. They had killed one of Morgan s army. 'Years aftoi wards, when I was teaching Hchool, tho children of George Gibson, who was among j those seven horsemen, were amonK my pupils. I asked him how they had ever dared to at tack such a superior forcein broad daylight, whore every chance wan i against them "Well," said he, we were and full of whiskey." mad Subscribe for the News. ALASKA NOT, WILD AND WOOLLY. , become so intensely provincial andself righteous. They conceive that all the virtues center in their own communities, and that do pravity reigns with a graded and increasing intensity that is meas ured principally by its distance from their ho.1 izon. They come to believe that civilization, immunity from danger aud well ordered conditions maintain principally within the circumscribed radius iu which they live. They do not keep abreast of the progress of newer countries- Years after ! Texas became the most orderly j State ih the Union the New York : and Massachusetts provincials j bolieyed it to bo a howling hell of j disorder, aud after Oregou be-, came a great Com mou wealth they J still clung to the ideas absorbed in childhood while PiadiugThaua topsis in their school readers. It should not, therefore, be a matter of surprise that Eastern people, even though in Congress, should now base their conception of Alaska upon the question of buying the country from Russia, and the later abnormal conditbus prevailing at the time of the klon dike stampede. It would be hard for these people to rasp the plain fact that crime is less prevalent in Alaska tiiau iu Boston, New York or Chicago; that accordiug to the population there is less il literacy here than there, aud that in Alaska there are morechurches schools, newspapers aud hospit als in comparison to population than there are iu t'ie most popu lous States, and that the people are as law-abiding, self-sustain-inr and intelligent here as else where. Verily, our free lance representative at Washington must be right in asserting thai many members of Congress need en 1 igh leu m en t S kag way A las au. A LEGACY OF THE GRIP. It is often a ruu-uown system. Weakness, nervousness, lack of appetite, energy and ambition, with disordered liver and kidueys often follow au attack of this wretched disease. The greatest ueed then is Electric Hitters, the splendid tonic, blood purtier, and regulator of stomach, liver aud kidneys. Thousands have proved that they wonderfully strengthen the nerves, build up the system and restore to health and good spirits after au attack of grip. If suffering, try them. Only 50c.

Like all elements which have an effect upon the nerves, it differs widely in its action upon different individuals, and no sweeping statements can bo made, says Dr. Crandali in the World's Works. Upon most constitutions its ac tion is deleterious. It is always injurious before the period of complete development, and can-! not be used before tho age of 25 without harm. Dr. Seaver, Di rector of the Physical Laboratory at Yale, tabulated the record of tho students cnte-ing that uni versity during nine years, when ; all theyoung men were examined and measured. The smokers averaged fifteen months older than the non-smokers. They were also shorter in stature. Nico tine interferes with growth, and its effect in that regard is very measurable. At Yale during the four years' course the non-users of tobacco, although taller when they cuter, gain 21 per cent, more iu height and 20.7 per. cent, more in girth of chest than do tho habit ual user. Dr. Hitchcock, of Am- herst College, found even greater differences. Tho lung capacity is very striking in tho two classes, and has been noticed by all ob- hoi vers. It shows the effect of j tobacco on the respiration, nico j tiuo being a potent depressor. ! As regards the effect of nicotine on tho mental processess. it is more difficult to interpret the meaning of statistics. Out of the highest scholarship meu at Yalo only 5 per cent, use i"bacco, whilo of tho nv-tj who do not get appointments 00 per cent-' use It. It is not necessary to in terpret this as meaning that mental decrepitude follows the use of tobacco by young meu. for j there are other factors to bo con Uidered; but it is certainly not conducive to the best work. LIVE IN TflEES. Near' Poria is a lfinaikalla vil lage, the ir.lmbitiintA of which "petit! tlieir lives' in the treetorn. If you look in'- iIim curious spot on the inn ), you wiil find it spilled Xreiiti.r, though it is pel haps bet tor known among Ihe I'arisiuns us "J.e Vrni Arbro do l!obin.on." It apjieirs ti nt some fifty year ago M. Guesceii .n conceived the idea cf! building n rcistmirunt in the tree top, lie owned land at S.'eaux in which stood a grand old tree, in tho branches of thi.-t forest patri arch he eroded small dining rooms, which were reached by rustic suiir cuses. The view to ho obtain ;d from these leafy heights is unique. To celelmit'.' the unconventional delights of feasts taken perched among the bianchc M. Guescenin railed iiis tree "Iiobinson," drop ping the Crusoe. The fame of the tree and it dining rooms spread. All social, literary, artistic Paris rr-ude it a point to breakfast or dino among the rustling leaves. Jydliitors soon appeared on tho scene, and today Sceanx is nothing less than a village built in treetops. There nro over a soure o trees with tpftciois timing room, many aiso bcdsting of sleeping and living apartments, ingeniously constructed on the stout branches of the trees. The tallest tree may be likened to a three story dwelling. It has three distinct rooms, built one above tho other. The Sphinx Needs an Umbrella. Venice has lost her famous campa nile, and now ligypt has good cause to tremble for her sphinx at least so says a distinguished European Egyptologist who examined this an cient monument recently. It is slowly wasting away, he says, und the sole cmisc is because too much rain has recently descend ed on it. Knch year, he points out, there are terrible showers of rain in Egypt, which are followed by fierce tempests, and as a result the sjihinx, which lias stood for centuries, is now being slowly, hut surely, de stroyed, the stone of which it ia fashioned being no longer able to resist the periodical onslaughts of the weather. As the only efficacious remedy he suggests that an immense umbrella be placed over the monument, as til us the rain could be warded off, and that some method he also de vised to protect it against the sand which envelops it during tempests. Old Walnut Stumps Valuable. Old walnut stumps are on a boom throughout Tennessee. Stumps that have remained unnoticed for years and were regarded as worthless are now eagerly sought after at prices that seem almost fabulous. One Indiana concern has had men trav eling over the country buying every old walnut stump that could be found. At first the prices paid were small, but as the eyes of the stick timber folks hogan to open the prices went higher and higher until now they are out of sight, and the funny part about it is that the ug lier, knottier and more unsightly the stump the more money it will bring. The stump of a walnut tree that was cut down several years ago brought more than the whole of the tree. It is stated that the stumps arc made into veneering material and used in the manufacture of high grade furniture. A Big Foghorn. A large foghorn is to be placed in the gulf of St. Lawrence, 4 feet in diameter and Pi feet long, the sound being produced bv sirens. Com pressed air is supplied by valves ac tuated by clockvork. Every two minutes the foghorn will emit a deep roar, followed ten seconds lat er by a sharp shriek. There are three air tanks, each C feet in diam eter and 12 feet long, and three gas oline engines run compressors to fill these tanks. The plant runs auto matically, am! a constant pressure is maintained in it. Even the clock is wound by a compressed air motor. The Coming Race. The male spider is a dwarf; tho female is a giant. It is the female which invites the fly to walk into her parlor. A Chicago anthropolo gist has recently been prophesying that the human race will soon re semble t he arachnid;!', for tho wom en are growing larger and the men smaller. What will the poor men do if his prophecy should come true? They find it hard enough even new to get their rights, so few are left after the women have got what they want. Youth's Companion. Chemical Kooda. M. Ilertlielut expresses the, opin ion in the Paris Temps that tho time will come when chemists will be able to prepare more digestible and nutritious foods than we now derive from the animal and vegeta ble world directly, hut he does not bolicvc that ij will be possible, as some suppose, to concentrate nutri ment cnoiitru for a meal into a f-rr r.ftonuUi.

" ' IT is pretty hard to keep well informed on the political news, the scientific news, the literary news, the educational movements, the great business developments, the hundreds of interesting and valuable articles in the hundreds of excellent magazines. About the only way it can be done by the average busy man and woman is to read a magazine like The Review of Reviews," and, as it is the only magazine of the sort, it is a good thing to send $2.50 for a year's subscription. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT say : " I know that through its columns views have been pre sented to me that I could not otherwise have had access to j because all earnest and thoughtful men, no matter how widely their ideas diverge, are given free utterance in its columns."
