TWENTY YEARS OF IT.
Emaciated by Diabetes; Tortured With
Gravel and Kidney Pains,
Henry Soule, cobbler, of Hammonds-
port, N. Y,, says: “Since Doan’s Kid-
mey Pills cured me eight years ago,
I've reached sev-
enty and hope to
live many years
longer. But twenty
years ago 1 had
kidney trouble so
bad I could not
work. Backache
was persistent and
it was agony to lift
y anything. Gravel,
whirling headaches, dizziness and ter-
rible urinary disorders ran me down
from 168 to 100 pounds. Doctors told
me I had diabetes and could not live.
I was wretched and hopeless when I
began vsing Doan’s Kidney Pills, but
they jfured me eight years ago and
I’ve }ieen well ever since.”

Some Strange War Bets.
fflome extraordinary bets have been
ade on the Japanese-Russian war.
A number of Japanese officers have
bet that they would be killed in
battle. The money was to go to
their widows. One officer, on start-
ing for the front, made the following
wager: If he were killed within a
month his heirs were to receive
$600. After that date he was to pay
his opponent 10 yen ($5) a day until
he had survived 100 days, after which
the bet was to cease. He undertook
to expose himself to danger only
when military conditions demanded
it; in other words, he would not wil-
fully let himself be killed.—Kansas
City Journal.
Trap for Auto Scorchers.
A photographic police trap for the
apprehension of scorching automobil-
jsts has been invented in England.
By the pressing of a button a pho
tograph is made of any passing car
with the time and date. A pair of
these instruments with synchronized
timing arrangements used at each
end of a measured piece of ground
would, it is believed, give absolutely
accurate data as to the speed of
automobiles.
GRATEFUL TO CUTICURA

“1 wish you would publish this letter so

my face and neck, scabs forming, itching
terribly day and night, breaking open, and
running blood and matter. 1 had tried

1 had used two cakes of Cuticura Soap

Japanese Favorite Tune.
“Marching Through Georgia” is
said to be the favorite tune of the
Japanese soldiers. Native music has
no marches, as it is without “time.”
Patriotic composers have, however,
since the war began, remedied this
defect by adapting various foreign
pieces. The soldiers have picked up
the new airs and sing with great de-
ight the Japanese words fitted to
them.—Kansas City Journal.

worth $30,000,000,
BOY WORTH $30,000,000.
A fourteen-year-old boy struggling to
mail 1 his hold to the claim of the
“richest boy in the world,” and three
women fighting equally hard for.a por-
tion of the wealth that gave him the
title, is the situation disclosed in dis-
patches from Los Angeles, Cal, where
Mrs. Henry KK. Shields, a sister; Mrs.
Arthur Little and Mrs. Russel Price,
nieces of the late William Ziegler, be-
gan a suit to contest the will of the
multi-millionaire, who bequeathed the
bulk of his immense fortune to his
adopted son and namesake.
They declare that they, closest of kin
with the exception of Mrs. Ziegler, the
widow, were completely cut off by the
baking powder magnate and patron of
Arctic expeditions, and ask that the
law give them a share_of the $30,000,
000, which represents the value of the
Ziegler estate that young Willie Ziegler
inherited.
Coming so soon after the death of
Mr. Ziegler this suit rencws the wide
interest in the lad whe, though only
fourteen years of age, is considered the
wealthiest bAy in the world, and one
with a great future before him.
For it was an unwritten legacy left
to him by his foster father that he
must find the North Pole should the
Fiala expedition sent out months be-
fore Mr. Ziegler's death fail in its at-
tempt.
Mr. Ziegler died late last May after
a long illness. Before his death it was
known that he would make little Will-
iam.his adopted son, his principal heir.
The story of young Ziegler's life,
what it has been and what it holds for
the future, is an extremely interesting
one. The son of his foster father's
brother, he was taken into the million-
aire’s household at a very early age.
Childless themselves, Mr. and Mrs.
Ziegler determined to give him all the
love and attention of parents and to
this end they decided to legally adopt
him.

distance and is then in position to be
withdrawn by the hand. In the illus-
tration here shown a portion of the
box has been cut away to show the
telescoping action of the two sections,
and a match is seen projecting from
the discharge opening ready to be with-
drawn. To place the match in the
position here seen it is only necessary
to contract the telescoping sections in
the hand, when the ejector engages
the head of the match lying in the bot-
tom of the V-shaped compartment in-
side the box and exposes the end of
the stick a short distance without,
however, igniting the head. The igni-
tion is accomplished by the passage of
the match head between two rough-
ened surfaces locited just inside the
opening.

The Horrors of War,
The 6'd gentieman in the smoking-
car was declaring vehemently that, in
his opinion, war was a disgrace to civ-
ilization. “War,” he exclaimed, “is an
abomination, a blot on the universe!”
Upon which he rose and left the car.
“The old man seems to feel pretty
strongly on the subject,’ said one of
the passengers. ‘Has he lost some
pear relative through war?”
“Yes,” answered a frierd, “his wife's
first busband.””—Harper's Weekly.
A AL
TO CATCH THE MAIL.
A hammock mail receptacle is a veri-
table novelty, which also deserves at-
tention because of its many merits. In
the first place, it is readily attached to
or detached from the usual letter-drop
opening, the advantages of which are
obvious. In the second place, it shows
at a glance whether there is any mail
to be removed, and its character. In
the third place, its ample proportions
allow it to accommodate a large num-
ber of magazines or similar bulky arti-
cles of mail, and yet it does not or-
dinarily take up an appreciable amount
of space. The common rigid box has
to be made large enough for maximum
requirements, while, as a matter of
fact, these are only called into use
semi-occasienally. The distension is
accomplished by means of a wire
framework from which the netting de-
pends. The modern particular house-
wife, if appealed to, would probably
lay some stress on the fact that a
receptacle of this kind does not form a
lurking place for an accumulation of
dust.—Brooklyn Eagle.
Mooning.
A man by the name of Moon got
married, and that was a change in the
moon; in due time his wife presented
him with a daughter, and that was a
new moon; then he went to town and
got busy for joy, and that was a full
moon; when he started home he had
twenty-five cents in his pocket, and
that was the last quarter; his mother-
in-law met him at the door, and that
was a total eclipse—he saw stars.—

spilled or otherwise scattered after

side of the heel there is a door through
which the sweepings may be readily
emptied.

Niagara I"alls, August 7.—The vol-
ume of water being diverted from the
historic Niagara Fal'g is reaching such
proportions that the people of the State
are trying to pass laws which will pre-
vent the possibility of a practical wip-
ing out of this sublime natural spec-
tacle.
Water sufficient to develop nearly
five hundred thousand horse-power
continuously, twenty-four hours per
day, for industrial purposes, is now be-
ing taken from the river above the
Falls, and further cevelopments re-
quiring more water are contemplated.
Probably the largest user of the elec-
tricity produced by the waters of the
mighty river is the concern which by
the five or six thousand degree heat of
the electric furnace brings lime and
coke into unwilling union, thereby pro-
ducing what is known as Calcium Car.
bide.
Dry calcium carbide is lifeless as so
much broken rock, but in contact with
water it springs into activity and be-
gets abundantly the gas Acetylene,
The light resulting from the ignition
of acetylene is the nearest approach to
sunlight known.
These facts, though of comparatively
recent discovery, were soon seized by
men with an eye to the commercial
possibilities and to-day calcium carbide
is being shipped everywhere and used
for dispelling darkness in buildings of
all descriptions, from the ordinary barn
of the farmer to the country villa of
the wealthy, as well as for lighting
the streets of a large number of towns.
Acetylene can be easily and cheaply
installed, and the manufacture and sale
of acetylene generators has become a
business of recognized standing, has
assumed large proportions and is stead-
ily growing.
To Ward off Stings.
Hornets and bees are not so apt to
sting a person if he keeps absolute-
ly still, but this is not necessarily due
to the fact that they do not see readi-
ly, but simfly that they do not
recognize an enemy in a perfectly
stationary body. The accumulated in-
telligence of generations has shown
them that still objects, like posts,
stones, or trees, are not enemies, and
that disturbance of their nests is al-
ways occasioned by objects having
power of motion. It thus follows
that if a hornets’ nest be disturbed or
if a wild bees’ nest be agitated, dang-
er of stinging is much less if the per-
son keeps perfectly still.—St. Nicho-
las.
Beat the Machine.
A father, with his three children,
was in a ‘waiting room in the north
of England, and stopped before one
of the weighing machines placed there.
Lifting his children he placed them
one by one on the machine until all
three were on it. Then he put one
penny into the slot. The figure indi-
cated was 125 pounds. Lifting one of
his children carefully off he found the
other two together weighed io pounds.
The difference, therefore—47 pounds
—was the first child’s weight. In the
same way he discovered the weight
of the other two. and then went off
highly gratified with his success.—Tit-
Bits.

it was impossible; he had sc many en-

said the Bishop, “I'll go to Algiers.”
BABY'S INSTINCT
Shows He Knew What Food to Stick To
Forwarding a photo of a splendidly
handsome and healthy young boy, a
happy mother writes from an Olio
town:
“Phe enclosed picture shows my 4-
year-old Grape-Nuts boy.
“Since he was 2 years old he has eat-
en nothing but Grape-Nuts, He de-
mands and gets this Tood three times a
day. This may seem rather unusual,
but he does not care for anything else
after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts,
which he uses with milk or cream, and
then he is through with his meal. Even
on Thanksgiving Day he refused tur-
key and all the good things that make
up that great dinner, and ate his dish
of Grape-¥uts and cream with the best
results and none of the evils that the
other foolish members of the family
experienced.

BIBLE IN STONE.
Buddhists Carved Their Holy Words
on a Hundred Temples.
Great as has been the amount of
labor expended on the various Bibles
of the world, the palm for execution
must be given to the Kutho-daw, which
is a Budhist monument near Manda-
lay in Burma.
It consits of about 100 temples, each
containing a slag of white marble on
which the whole of the Buddhist Bible,
consisting of more than 1,000,000 syl-
lables, has been engraved. The Bur-
mese alphabet is used but the langu-
age is Pali. This wonderful Bible is
absolutely unique.
The Kutho-daw was erected in 1857
by Mindon-Min, the last king but one
one Burma. The vast collection of
temples together forms a square, with
a dominating temple in the center.
Each of the marble slabs on which the
sacred texts are inscribed is surmount-
ed by an ornamental canopy in pag-
oda form.
Prerogatives of Jack Tar.
Uncle Sam is a tolerant old gentle-
man. He permits the sailors on his
battleships and cruisers to keep pets.
No ship in the navy is without its
mascot. The other day a big cruiser
came into Brooklyn Navy Yard and
the sailors proudly displayed a big
moese for a mascot on board ship!

another a monkey from Algiers, still
another a game cock from Liverpool,

Meteor for a Tombstone.
One the oddest tombstones in Amer-

at Akron, O. A dozen years ago a
meteor fell upon the Lane farm, at
Talmadge, burying itself 16 feet in
the earth. It was dug out, and on the
death of Mr. Lane was utilized as a |
tombstone. The metoer, which re- |
sembles a mass of iron ore, is mount-
ed on an oblong pedestal of polished
granite, and is in marked contrast to
the crude sculptures found in other |
parts of the cemetery where the grave |
is located.—New York Herald.
Foreign Circus Performers. |
Although the circus is an institution
peculiarly and typically American,’
over 90 per cent. of the circus perform-

| struggle for existence is so snarp that

| failure means death, and wnich no
