COCKNEY SHOCKED AT WASTE.
Incidentally Hla Knowledge of Farm
ing Was Meager.
A Manchester manufacturer was
praising tlie late Lord Masham, who
Invented the wool-carding machine
the machine which in a marvelous
manner takes In at one end huge arm
loads of wool and discharges at the
other end woolen yarn ready for spin
ning. "Lord Masham spent some years of
hi!,, youth In America," said the man
ufacturer. "He liked our American
ways. Ho profited by them. So ear
nestly, on his return to England, did
he urge the English people to imitate
the Americans that he was given the
nickname of 'American Jark.'
"I knew Lord Masham and he told
me that he imputed his success to hie
adoption of the American Rpirlt the
spirit ot humble and unremitting In
quiry and struggle.
"Unremitting inquiry, a great strug
gle after Improvement, wns the key
note of the American character. Lord
Masham suld, and what he disliked
in the character of too many Britons
was the direct opposite to this a
stupid and domineering ignorance.
" 'Stupid and domineering Igno
rance," said Lord Masham. 'Why, A
cockney visited my Swlnton hall
estate one day and seeing a farm boy
planting potatoes shouted to the lad:
Hi s'y, what do you want a
hldln' them potatoes for, you Idiot?
Don't you know the bioomin' things Is
worth 5 a ton In London?"'"
A man would hardly ever have to
know hh much to lie great as he thinks
he known without beinu It.
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Increasing Among Women, But

THE BEST ADVICE IS FREE
Of all the diseases known, with which

Unless early and correct treatment 1.1
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the dUease Is fastened upon
her. We believe Lydla E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is the most effi
cient treatment for chronic kldnev
troubles of women, and Is the only med
lolne especially prepared for this
purpose.
W hen a woman is troubled with pain
or weight In loins, backache, frequent,
painful or scalding urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys or notices a
sediment In the urine, she should
lose no time In commencing treatment
with Lydia E. I'lukhams Vegetable
Compound, as it may be the means of
Mvingher life.
For proof, read what Lydia E. Pink

Mark Twain Victor, Usual.
"You can't beat Mark Twain," said
an editor. "At a banquet or supper
nothing Is more foolish than to cross
blades with our great humorist.
"Mark Twain, you'll remember,
tells In 'Innocents Abroad' about the
street In Damascus that Is called
Straight. He says that the street called
Straight may not be as crooked as a
corkscrew, but It Is certainly less
straight than a rainbow.
"Well, Haskett Smith, the Pales
tine lecturer, took Mark Twain to
task about tho street called Straight
at a dinner.
'"When I was In Dnmascus,' he
said, 'I took a photograph of this
street and the photograph shows the
street to be really as straight as pos
sible.' "There was a laugh at the -humorist's
expense.
"He rose and drawled
" 'May I ask what my friend Has
kett Smith had to drink that day la
Damascus?'
" 'Oh, water, water only,' Hasket
Smith replied.
"'Ah, well,' Twain drawled, 'you
see, that makes all the difference.' "
High Winds Rare In Rome.
Gales are very rare In Rome and
never blow with exetreme violence.
The most striking peculiarity of the
Roman climate Is the absence of high
winds. The air Is pure and clear
owing to the almost complete ab
sence of smoke even In the winter
months.
The average yearly movement of
the air Is only five miles an hour.
This Is of enormous advantage In win
tc, since the "tramontana" (north
wind), which Is the prevailing wind
In this season, is If strong, decidedly
cold and bracing, but when under
eight miles an hour Is delightful for
most people, Including Invalids. The
south winds are essentially sea
breezes. They frequently alternate
with the tramontana.
The sirocco (southeast wind),
which fortunately does not often blow,
is moist and enervating. It gives rise
to languor in most individuals.
Queer English Election Law.
If a person's name gets on the Eng
lish registry of voters, however Im
properly, he has an Indefensible right
to vote. Thus It happened in the re
cent election that a woman voted for
a member of parliament. In another
case, at Raylelgh, in Essex, a school
boy, James Griggs, 11 years old, resid
ing at Thundorsley found himself
legally entitled to a clnlm to vote. At
the Raylelgh polling station the lad
presented himself on the day of the
election, and, satisfying the officials
in charge of his Identity with the per
son nnmed In tho register, was given
a paper and allowed to vote.

Horse Not Adapted for Strain.
E. M. Bartlett of Omaha, who Is
one of the directors of the American
Trotting Association, said of a hard
driver:
"The man's horses keep so lean
and poor that they remind me of a
huckster whom I knew In my boyhood.
"This huckster drove a gray horse
that vas the thinnest creature your
mind can convelve of. Its huge, long
head drooped at the end of a neck
that resembled a pump handle and its
rlha stuck out through the tight skin
pitiably.
"The huckster one day left the horse
In charge of his son. When he came
back tho animal was lying on tho
ground. Thereupon he said angrily
to the lad:
" 'Aha, you've been leaning on him

The RcOOt Of
Gambling ..
Traced to Primitive Man Id
Tliig Chicago Theory.
td WiROr' 1- W. THOMAS,
S "NI nf (lin TTni-nf-ltv r,f fill.
I cago, has a new and Inter
V4I eating theory on gambling.
"1 Ho looks at the passion
exactly the opposite point of
from
view held by most of us, and one of tho
conclusions' ho draws Is that the prob
lem Is not so much to account for (he
gambler In the midst of us as for the
staid and matter-of-fact mnn of busi
ness. All classes of society and the one
sex, quite as much as the other, argues
Trof. Thomas, have a deep Interest In
all forms of contest Involves skill and
chance and that Interest mounts high
er and higher as the risk and damage
become greater and greater. And this
is but natural, for the conflict arouses
in us the instincts awakened during
the childhood ot the race In the strug
gle for fond and tho rivalry for mates.
An organism such as man's, dependent
on offensive and defensive movements
for food and life, could not have been
developed without having developed at
the same time an Interest In dangerous
or precarious situations.
The fact thnt our Interests and en
thusiasms are aroused by situations of
the conflict typo can be shown by a
glanco at the situations that arouso
them most readily. War, for Instance,
is simply an organized form of fight,
and as such U most attractive or, to
say the least, it arouses tho Interests
powerfully. With the accumulation of
property and the growth of Intelligence
it became apparent thnt war iras a
wasteful and an unsafe process, and
political and personal considerations
led us to avoid it as much as possible.
But deprecate war as much as we may,
wo still are quick to acknowledge that
it is the most exciting of games.
Recently (he Rough Riders In this
country and more recently still tho
young men of the aristocracy of Eng
land went to war from motives of pa
triotism, no doubt, but there are unmls
lukablo evidences they also regarded It
as the greatest nport they wore likely
to have it chance at In a lifetime. And
there Is unmistakable evidence that tho
emotional attitude of women toward
war is no less intense.
So gladltorlnl shows, bear halting,
bull lighting, dug lighting, cock fight
ing, prize fighting and football may bo
mentioned as examples of conflict that
awaken in us the emotional feelings of
the contest and give us by suggestion
tho emotions similar to those endured
by the contestants, without subjecting
us to the danger of injuries that they
are obliged to undergo.
Xow, as long as man was In n stato
of nature, following his Instincts, rov
I'lng, lighting, hunting, wooing, contriv
j ing, be was happy; and such tasks as
j bo imposed upon himself he found
pleasurable and not irksome. This
i sort of life continued for an iimnenso
! stretch of time, and It was but us yes-
terduy in the history of the white raco
that population became der.se or game
was exhausted, and man found himself
obliged to adjust himself to changed
conditions or perish.
Instead of slaughtering the ox he fed
It, housed it In winter, bred from it,
reared the calf, yoked it to n plow,
plowed the fields, sowed seeds, dug out
the weeds and gathered, thrashed and
ground the grain. This was a labor,
mechanical and irksome, lacking the
constant change and the excitement
and the nervous tension that man ex
perienced In tho state of nature.
But, while this labor Itself wns dis
agreeable, its products served to sat
isfy man's physical wants. The habits
of the race adjusted themselves to
what the members of it were far from
enjoying emotionally. Not all social
groups reconciled themselves to a life
of labor and many Individuals of our
own race failed to conform to it. Many
men whose natural opportunities or in
telligence might have made them la
borers in various industries hewers of
wood or drawers of wuter have drift
ed Instead into various occupations
where there are possibilities of excite
ment, or where at least the mechanical
or routine elements are absent. Police
men, nrcuicn, detectives, livery stable
men, coachmen, barkeepers and bar
bers are moro or less valuablo to so
ciety and many of them are very hard
workers, but their occupations differ
from hard labor in affording consider
able opportunity for sitting about and
an occasional chance to see or Join a
tight or game, to talk or play the races.
Finally, we have the extreme cases of
the tramp and the criminal, refusing to
accept tbe social arrangement at all.
We aro now la a position to under
stand how gambling comes to exist and
why It Is so fascinating. It is a means
of keeping up our Interests In conflict
and it secures for us the sensations and
ithe excitements of conflict with little
effort and no drudgery. In gambling,
too, the risk Is Imminent, the attention
is strained, the emotions are strong and
even where tho element of skill Is re
moved entirely and the decision is left
1o chance, the player has feelings akin
to that of being In a coutiict himself.
From tills point of view It Is less dif
ficult to account for tho gambler than
for the man of business. The gaming
instinct is born in all normal persoas)
it was acquired during the earliest ex
periences of the human race. The in
stinct is in Itself right and indispensa
ble, bnt we make a difference in tin
uses to which it is put. It Is valued in
war and business. It expresses itself
in a thousund forms lu the games ol
children and In college athletics. II
meets with approval In such expres
slons ot the passion as golf, tennis am)
billiards, but society justly coudemnl
the instinct it it is not used In sonn
way to further production or ereatt
values. The value may be in the in
creased health and vigor which thi
business man derives from recreation
or it may be in the creation of wealtt
by this same man in competitive busir
ness.
But tbe gamester pure and simple if
not regarded with favor by society, be
cause he creates no .values, and la,
therefore, parasitical and a dlsorgan
lzer ot the hablti of others. Chicago

R. G. Dun & Co.' "Weekly Review
of Trade" says :
"Stringency in the money market has
caused no interruption to the wholesome
progress of trade and industry, although
tending to develop conservatism in spec
ulative departments. Weather conditions
accelerate the distribution of seasonable
merchandise and retail business is of
large volume outside the immediate vi
cinity of the coal mines and a few other
places where local controversies have
their influence. Building operations are
only limited by the supply of labor and
material, which cauie frctiucnt delays,
and the heavy consumption of all com
modities is shown by the highest level
of quotations since February, 1884, Dun's
index number on April 1 being $106,006,
against $104,204 a month previous, and
$99,206 a year ago.
Since the month opened there has been
a furthcr'advancc. Manufacturing' plants
are fully engaged; pig iron production is
at the maximum, shipments of footwear
from Boston exceed those of any pre
vious year and a stronger tone is re
ported at the textile mills in response
to the well maintained markets for raw
material.
Structural shapes and steel rails con
tinue the prominent feature of the iron
and steel industry, although every de
partment has recently broadened in in
terest. Failures this week numbered 193 in
the United States, against 214 last year,
and twenty in Canada, compared with
twenty a year ago.

The bettor elaas of druggists, everywhere, are men of pcientific attainments and high Integrity,
who dovoto their lives to the welfure of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and
purest medicinal agents of known ralue, in accordance with phyoicians' prescriptions and
scientific formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but
always under original or officinal names and they never sell f al?e brands, or imitation medicines.
They aro tho men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes
all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and
best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances.
The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledgo of tho benefits
conferrod upon their patrons and asfistanco to the medical profession, is usually their greatest
roward for long yoars of Btudy and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup oi
Fig-J is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they
aro soiling many millions of bottles annually to tho well informed purchasers of tho - choicest
remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing tho full
narao of tho Company California Fig Fyrup Do. printed on the front of every package-.
They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and
of weakness or torpidity of tho liver and bowel?, arising from irregular hahits, indigestion, or
over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in iia effects as
Syrup of Figs, and they aro glad to sell it because it gives universal Fatisfaction.
Owing to the excellenco of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the
immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there ara
individual druggists to be found, here and thero, who do not maintain the dignity and principles
of tho profession and whoso greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate
to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations
sometimes have tho name" Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup" and of some piratical concern,
or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have tho full name of
tho Company California Fig Syrup Co. printed on tho front of the package. The imitations
Bhould bo rejected becauso they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations
they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes
off on a customer a preparation under the name of "Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup," which
does not boar tho full namo of tho California Fig Syrup Co." printed on the front of the packtipe,
he ia attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his
establishment, whether it bo large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and
and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of
physicians' prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness.
Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply ti e immense demand
for our oncellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every
where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions
exist it is necessary to inform the pub1!T of the facts, in order that all may decline or return

PLANTS THAT HAVE VANISHED.
Shrubs of Southern Mountains That
Go for No Known Reason.
In the southern mountains certain
flowers have been lost for nearly a
century and rediscovered by chance
In a different locality, thriving and
abundant. No one knows the cause
of their disappearance, by what
means they were removed, or why
they prefer their new habitat.
One curious feature is that these
vanished flowers or shrubs, aro not as
a rulo Insignificant plants that one
might overlook. On tho contrary, tho
beautiful variety of sumach named
after Mlchaux. a French botanist,
which was lost so many years ago
and has only recently been found
again, bore great panicles of cramy
blossoms first, and later on thick clus
ters of velvety and crimson fruit.
Its leaves also turned a rich crim
son In autumn, so that its seemed to
flame and glow on the mountain sides.
Another lost plant, also a shrub,
the elllottia, was a striking beauty. It
belonged to the heath family and had
long spikes of white blossoms, each
blossom shaped like a St. Andrew's
cross, in vivid contrast with its lus
trous green foliage. It has now van
ished as completely as if it had never
existed.
Some of the plants were fortunately
collected in 1878 by a gentleman near
Augusta, Ga., bo that it has disappear
ed in less than a quarter of a cen
tury. No reason is known for this
loss either to botanists or the people
among whom It once bloomed. New

so that I could not assimilate as
much as a mouthful of solid food,
and was even In worse condition men

It ever would be so.

stomach, pain In tbe side, constipation,
and other bowel derangements, all
these were familiar to my daily life,

of Grape-Nuts food, and subsequently
gave up coffee entirely and adopted
Postum Food Coffee at all my meals.

"Our baby had that dreadful complaint,
Infantile Kczema, which afflicted him for
several months, commencing at the top ol
his head, and at iast covering his whole
body. Ilia sufferings were untsold and con
stant misery, in fact, there was nothin,'
we would not have done to have given him
relief. We finally procured a lull set o.
the Cutirura Remedies, and in about thru
or four days he began to show a brigliu
spirit and really laughed, tor the iir.st time
in a year. Jn about ninety days he was
fully recovered, l'raise for the L'uticuiv
Remedies has always been our greatest
pleasure, and there is nothing too goo '
that we could say in their favor, for tli"
certainly saved our baby's life, for 1
was the most nvvful sight that 1 ever b
