Hot-Croat Buna,
Only 5,000,000 "hot-cross buns"
were consumed in London on Good
Friday, indicating the dying out of
the custom. The cross-bun Is the
modern equivalent of the cakes eaten
in honor of the Saxon goddess Eos
tre, from whose name the word Eas
ter comes. Her worshipers became
Christians, but, unwilling to give up
the buns, compromised by making
them with a cross.

DISFIGURING SKIN HUMOR
Impossible to Get Kmptoymrnt, a Face
I and Body Were Covered With Sores
J Cured by Cutlcura.
I "Since the year 1S94 I have been troo
I bled with a very bad case of eczema which
I have spent hundreds of dollars trying to
cure, and 1 went to the hospital, but they
failed to cure me, and it was getting worse
ill the time. Five wcclw ajo my wife
bought a box of Cuticura Ointment and
one cake of Cuticura Koap, and I am
pleased to ay that 1 am pow tompletely
cured and well. It was impossible lor me
to get employment, as my lace, head and
body were covered with it. The eczema
first appeared on the top of my head,
and it had worked all the way around
down the back of my neck and around to
my throat, down l.iy body tnd around the
hips. It itched so I would be obliged to
scratch it, and the flesh was raw. 1 am
now all well, and I will be pleased to rec
mmend the Cuticura Remedies to all per
sons who wish a speedy and permanent
cure of skin diseases. Thomas M. Rossi

Changes in British Views.
"Too many influences spoil the
British" might be adopted as a prov
erb. Within the last quarter of a
century the American woman has con
siderably altered the character of her
British sister; the American business
man has greatly changed that of his
equivalent in England; the French
have accustomed us to an attitude of
mind which would have horrified our
parents and the Germans have intro
duced their military spirit into a coun
try which has always been opposed
to a large standing army. London

Pacific Coast Cities.
Portland and Seattle rank next to
San Francisco in importance among
the ports of the Pacific coast of the
United States. In 1B00. when San
Francisco had 343,000 inhabitants,
Portland had P0.000 mid Seattle had
80,000. Each of these towns was
growing much faster than the Cali
forrfa metropolis.

Surgeons Drug Her, Make Surface
Wound and Show Her Lizard.
An extraordinary cure by auto
suggestion has just been performed
in (he Cochin hospital at Paris.
Recently a peasant woman from a
village in Normandy applied for treat
ment at the hospital, saying she had a
terrible monster In her stomach and
wanted it taken out. She described
the creature as having a head like a
snake, and a long thin body and tail
with four short legs famished with
claws.
The surgeons had the woman put
to bed and quite seriously nursed for
a few days, preparatory to being
operated on. . Later she was placed
under an anesthetic and a surface
wound made upon her body which
was duly bandaged with great care.
When she regained consciousness
she was shown a common gray lizard
in a jug, which she was told had been
taken out of her stomach. Ever
since that time she has improved,
now eats well and experiences no
pain at ail.
She will be given the Itaard, which
was bought by the surgeons in a bird
store, to take back to her village and
show her friends.
To Prevent Seasickness.
Anybody who has had a good cas
of seasickness must have felt that h
would welcome the electric chair ai
a relief. Now an electric chair foi
seasickness has been tested in an
English Channel steamer and an
ocean liner. You sit in a snug arm
chair. A motor under the seat is
connected with the ship's electric
current. You sit and take vibratory
treatment. Up and down and cross
wise you are shaken. Most sitters
need but one treatment. Their tend
ency to seasickness is vibrated out
of them. Some need a second sit
ting. A few are seasick as soon as
their treatment ends. It is a pre
ventive, mark you, not a cure. The
theory is that seasickness is essent
ially a nervous malady and that vi
bration reduces the nervousness.
Certainly imagination and expectation
have much to do with the disorder.
Blessings, on the new armchair if it
can block quick-coming seasickness, r
But many believe and many doubt.

Origin of "The Levant."
nowadays " The Levant ' means
solely that Eastern Mediterranean re
gion upon which Lord Charles Beres
ford has been keeping his eye dur
ing the trouble with the sultan. But
it really signifies the East in a gen
eral sense the region of the rising
sun, in fact being derived from the
French "lever," to rise. By "the
High Levant" Bacon meant the Far
East. In the eighteenth century
Chambers' Encyclopedia explained
that "Levant" applied to any coun
try to the eastward of one, and in
this sense Evelyn wrote of "more
Levantine parts than Italy." "Le
vant," indeed, was interchangeable
with "Orient," just as "Ponent" was
with "Occident." So we find Milton
writing of "Levant' and "Ponent"
minds. London Chronicle.

The Keeley Motor.
About 1872, John W. Keeley, of
Philadelphia, began his experiments
In that city to attempt to develop to
practical results a machine worked
by power without cost, 1. e. running
itself. Nothing definite, however, was
ever given out concerning this motor
except the name. "Pneumatic-Pul-sating-Vacuo-Engine,
until the motor
was denounced by a Boston lawyer
as a huge fraud, run by a water
motor in a sub-basement. Hundreds
of thousands of dibllars were lost by
stockholders. Th machine at last
accounts was stored in Jamaica Plain.
Keeley died in thai fall of X8S8.
It's easy to understand how ordinary
people get fooled by coffee when doc
tors themselves sometimes forget the
facts.
A physician speaks of his own experi
ence: "I had used coffee for years nnd
really did not exactly believe it was In
juring me, although I had palpitation
of the heart every day.
"Finally one day a severe and almost
fatal attack of heart trouble frightened
me and I gave up both tea and coffee,
using Postum instead, and since that
time I have had absolutely no heart
palpitation except on one or two occa
lions when I tried n small quantity, of
:offee. which caused severe Irritation
md proved to me I must let It alone.
"When we began using Postum it
teemed weak that was because we
lid not make it according to directions
-but now we put a little bit of butter
Si the pot when boiling and aliow the
rosluiu to boil full 15 minutes, which
Ives it the proper rich flavor and the
leep brown color.
"I have advised a great many of my
triends and patients to leave off coffee
md drink Postum, In fact, I daily give
jiis advice." Name given by Postum
Do.. Battle Creek. Mich.
Many thousands of physicians use
?ostum in place of -tea and coffee in
tieir own homes and prescribe It to
laticnts. "There's a reason."

Faiitftrn City In Arizona.
Of all the rltles of Arizona. Prescott
is the most "Eastern" In its character;
It never had an era of the "bad man,"
never a time when It wos customary to
serve "a man for jreakfast," or when
it was a safe and popular pastime to
"shoot up the town." It has been from
the start the centre of a prosperous,
law-abiding community, bent upon per
sonal and general improvement. Since
the great fire which, four years ago,
wiped out most of its business bouses
in a single night, it has grown with a
rapidity and a substantial character
and beauty seldom equalled. Before
the smoke hal cleared away men who
had seen great stocks of merchandise
go up in flame were doing business in
louts set up along the plaza, and be
fore the ruins were cool the debris
were being cleared away and material
for new buildings unloaded on the
ground. There was a spirit of rivalry
as to who should put up the handsom
est buildings, and the city rose out of
her ashes with new and larger beiuty
nnd went on her way as the business
and mining centre of the north. But
beyond her mines and business re
the homes nnd schools nnd
churches of Trescott have always been
her pride. A home town from the very
beginning, it Is still a city of homes.
Mining men operating near have their
homes in the city, and, though in no
sense seeking prominence as a resort
for invalids- the climate has drawn
mnny to permanent residence In the
city and pine forest surrounding it.

as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play when in health and
how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they
enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome
diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved,
not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injuri
ous or objectionable nature, and if at anytime a remedial agent is required, to assist
nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure
and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has
come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate
of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has1 also met with the approval of physicians generally, because
they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputa
ble physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an
original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and
presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are
used to promote the pleasant taste ; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence
we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent
medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication.
Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs
always has the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. plainly
printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size
only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having
printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get
the genuine you vill not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have
a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children,
whenever a laxative remedy is required.

trust has gone into the business on

great blocks by means of dynamite,
after which it is sawed into regular
sizes and sent down the mountain on
a narrow-gage railway. Down In the
valley it is loaded into freight ears
and distributed through southern
France.

Longest of Steel Ropes.
In a short time Calumet may just
ly claim to have the largest steel wire
rope in the world. The new rope will
be used in the No. 4 shaft of the Cal
umet branch of the mine. The rope
will have a length of 9,500 feet, which
Is not quite two miles In length. The
diameter of this cable is 1 inches,
which is somewhat heavier than the
ordinary rope which is used in the
mine work. At the present time the
Calumet and Heel a had some cables
which equal the one to be secured in
length, but they are not as heavy as
the new steel rope, it can be safely
said that the new rope will be the
