Seven years ago I was so bad with pain in the back, and so weak that I had to keep to my room, and was in bed some- times six weeks at a spell. Beginning with Doan’s Kidney Pills, the kidney weakness was soon corrected, and inside a week all the pain was gone, I was also relieved of all head- aches, dizzy spells, soreness and feel- Ings of languor. I strongly recommend Doan's Kidney Pills.” Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Miiburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. First Printed Almanac. The, firet known almanac in print was that of John Miller, who lived at Nuremberg in the fifteenth cent- ury, and not only gave the character of the 12 months in advance, but fore- told the eclipses of the moon for the next 30 years. His almanac sold for 10 crowns of gold—a sum to make Old Moore jealous. And Old Moore was jealous. He went at once to this rival, in the hope of find- ing out the source of his prophecies. The rival saw through him. ‘This is my system,” he pleasantly observ- ed. “I take your almanae, and for every day that you predict one thing I predict the opposite, and I am as often right as you are!’ This did not equal the sincerity of the astrolo- ger, Cardan, who, having predicted his own death, starved himself to death in order to verify the prophecy. —London Chronicle. Prosperity in Germany. In a report to the State Department at Washington, Consul Edward H. Osmun, at Stuttgart, Germany, com- ments vn a building boom in Stutt- gart and says: “Building lots are dear and rents are high. On one of the best residence stieets not far from the consulaté an apartment house of four stories has been erect- ed, having apartments of eight rooms, each of which was readily rented as soon as finished at the rental of $1,- 000 a year, without heat.” It is as- serted by others that the average yearly income of a citizen of the German empire is far below that of the average American citizen, which is less than $1,000 a year. §TOPS BELCHING BY ABSORPTION =NO DRUGCS=—A NEW METHOD.

It has become a common reproach that is thrown constantly in the faces of the American people that commerciality and the desire to get money exert more influence over them than can be said of any other race nationality. From the point of view occupied by most outside ob- servers, this charge is true, and yet when the fact is fully examined it" develops features that are not so heinous and condamnable as would seem at the first glance to be the case. Certainly there is among the wealthy persons in the United States no undue proportion of misers who worship money for its own sake. On the contrary, there is a larger per- centage of spend-thrifts, and as a rule the rich men of our country and race are apt to be generous givers. There is not at the bottom of the American money-grabbing any, whol- motive. On the contrary, nething that is more or ibe, if not admirable, in it. Th e American struggle for money grows te a great extent from the re to gain power, influence, rocial position and general personal sdvancement.——New Orleans Picay- ine. Graft in Smyrna.

Twenty-three hundred million bushels of wheat are required annu- ally by the 517,000,000 bread eaters of the world. We each consume a barrel of flour—four and one-halt bushels—a year. Great Britain eats in 13 weeks all the 73,000,000 hushels of wheat which it grows, and to have bread during the rest of the year must give $100,000,000 to the United States and smaller sums to India and Russia.-~—Chicago Journal. TERRIBLE ITCHING SCALP Eczema Broke Out Also on Hands and Limbs=An Old Soldier Declares: “Cuticura is a Blessing." “At all times and to all people I am willing to testify to the merits of Cuti- cura. It saved me irom worse chan the torture of hades, about the year 1900, with itching on my scalp and temples, and af- terwards it commenced to break out on my hands. Then it broke out on my limbs. I then went to a surgeon, whose treat- ment did me no good, but rather aggra- vated the disease. 1 then told him I would go and see a physician in Erie. The reply was that I could go anywhere, but a case of eczema like mine could not be cured; that 1 was too old (80). 1 went to an eminent doctor in the city of Erie and treated with him for six monthe, with like results. 1 had read of the Cuticura Remedies, and so I sent for the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and con- tinued taking the Resolvent until I had taken six bottles, stopping it to take the Pills. I was now getting better. 1 took two baths a day, and at night 1 let the lather of the Soap dry on. I used the Ointment with great effect after washing in warm water, to stop the itching at once. I am now cured. The Cuticura treatment is a blessing, and should be used by every one who has itching of the skin. I can’t say any more, and thank God that He has given the world such a curative. Wm. H. Gray, 3303 Mt. Vernon St., Philadelphia, Pa., August 2, 1905.” FLIES PUT TO USE. Shipped from Brazil to and Chickens. Those good souls who have faith to believe that everything in existence fulfills some beneficient purpose will be gratified to learn—now that sum- mertime approaches—that flies have a recognized commercial value as food. It is not the American fly, however, that is so distinguished. The fly of commerce comes from Brazil, and they are highly esteemed as food for fancy chickens, birds and fish in captivity. These flies are caught on the Amazon river by men who float down stream in boats and use large nets to scoop in the millions of in- sects which circle in dense clouds just above the water. The insects in a dry state consti- tute one of the richest of foods. For chickens they are mixed with other ingredients, such as maize, millet, Feed Fish etc. They are too rich a diet by themselves, but so great {is their power of nourishment that a small quantity has a most beneficial ef- fect on fowls in captivity. The Brazillian government stopped the exportation of this commodity two years ago, fearing the fish in the stream would suffer from the trade. This ban, however, has re- cently been removed and the flies are again being imported to this and European countries. A Successful Mission. From Sumatra, the Rhenish mis- sionary society reports a year of har- vvest such as it has never before seen. The number of pagans bap- tized during the year was 4,712, be- sides 136 Mohammedans. The total of Christians is now 61,764. In 307 schools 144,119 boys and girls are under instruction. Havan's Water Supply. Havana has no sewers, but it has a water supply unexcelled elsewhere in the world. Thirty-three springs well up from the coral reef that un- derlies Cuba and supply the city with 150 gallons per capita every day of the purest water possible to find. FOUND OUT, A Trained Nurse Discovered Its Effect No one is in better position to know the value of food and drink than a trained nurse. Speaking of coffee a nurse of Wilkes Barre, Pa., writes: “I used to drink strong coffee myself and suffered great- ly from headaches and indigestion. While on a visit to my brothers I had a good chance to try Postum Food Cof- fee, for they drank it altogether in place of .ordinary coffee. In two weeks, after using Postum, I found I was much benefited and finally my head- tion. “Naturally I have since used Postum among my patients, and haveé noticed a marked benefit where coffee has becn left off and Postum used. “I observe a curious fact about Pos- fum used among mothers. It greatly helps the flow of milk in cases where coffee is inclined to dry it up, and where tea causes nervousness, “I find trouble in getting servants to make Postum properly. They most al- ways serve it before it has been boiled long enough, It should be boiled 15 or 20 minutes and served with cream, when it is certainly a delicious bever- ge.” COST keason, Ilere is one of the very latest arate wrap. made of amethyst colored ol ns = , U , Q 0 K) {2 applique over silk, but the model is in every way adapted to the light weight wool mixtures that are to be such favorites for the spring and also to the pongee and linen suits of later wear as well as to Panama cloth and the time.
