In a Carefully Prepared Ar

Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy.
In a recent issue of the New York
Magazine of Sanitation and Hygiene, th
recognized authority on all matters per
taining to health, James H. Montgom
ry, M. D., says editorially :
"After a careful investigation of Dr.
David Kennedy' Favorite Remedy, a
specific for kidney, liver and Madder
troubles, rheumatism, dyspepsia and con
stipation with its attendant ills, we are,
free to confess that a more meritorious
medicine has never come under the exam
ination of the chemical and medical ex
perts of the New York Magazine of Sani
tation and Hygiene. In fact, after tiie
most searching tests and rigid inquiry in
to the record of Dr. David Kennedy's Fa
vorite Remedy, it becomes a duty to re
eommend its use in unequivocal term to
every reader of this journal whose com
plaint.comes within the list of ailments
which this remedy is advertised to cure.
We have obtained such overwhelming
proof of the efficacy of this specific have
o satisfactorily demonstrated its curative
powers through personal experiments
that a care for the interests of our readers
leads us to call attention toitsgreat value. "

News from the fur east continues
rather disquieting, despite the assur
ance ct Russia that she is sincere in
approving the open door policy in
China, and that she' has no ulterior
motives in retaining control in Man
churia for the present. Korea, un
tioubttdly inspired by Japan, lias
demanded that Russia vacate her
territory and remiss the Yalu river.
This request is said .to he couched
in most vigorous language. As
Japan is working day and night
preparing war supplies something
more than a more harmless disagree
ment among diplomats is expected.
There must be some good In our
present postal system. Notwith
standing that the entire post office
department apparently and most of
that branch of the treasury depart
ment which has to do with postal
affairs are Investigating each other,
we seem to get our mail pretty regu
larly and without delay. The Wash
ington Post remarks that Postmaster
General Payne is on the right track.
This is fortunate since if he were on
the other track there might be danger
of a collision.
The latest news supplemented by
photographs from the scene of the
Jewish massacre at Kishenef, Russia,
show the affair to have been more
horrible than was indicated by the
early telegrams. In this massacre
Russia is described as having lorn a
leaf from early Roman history, when
a massacre of Christians was often
suggested to engage the attention ol a
province about to rise in revolt.

MEN IN PUBLIC LIFE.
Senator Frye once refused to write
his reminiscences for a magazine, de
claring himself opposed to the telling
by public men of "tales out of
school."
There are 03 committees In the

Police Commissioner Greene, of
New York, has taken in hand those

to read the name twice to the men
under their command. "I appeal to
the honest and self-respecting mem

operate with me In driving out the
men who thus disgrace their uniform.
If this petty Mealing ia regarded In
its proper light by members of the
force they will not associate with
anyone suspected of it."
INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS.
A few years ago quartz mines that
would not yield $50 to the ton were
despised and rejected as unprofitable.
Now, with improved methods of ex
tracting, ore containing as low as $3
a ton pays fair dividends to the stock
holders. The cost of cyanide treatment of
ore in a typical southwestern Colorado
plant, where about. 125 tons are
handled duily, is stated to be 70 cent
a ton 35 cents for cyanide, 20.5 cents
for labor, 3.5 cents for powder and
fuel, aud 4.5 for zinc.
The gas used in the modern pas en

the gas engine, in utilizing the blast

Boulogne a model building was erect

is of while sandstone, in late T.ouis

The building consists of two "ho

"liing-n-ding-a-ding - a - ding! (let
up, you lazy loafer! It's seven
o'clock!" Those strenuous words,
preceded by the tinkle of a brisk lit
tle bell, caused a visitor in a West
Philadelphia house to hop out of bed
the other morning with immense sud
denness, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. The words were so authoritative
that he had the same feeling of sub
mission he had when a schoolboy and
his fnthcr called him. So he jumped
up now without question.
What had nwakencd him was a
phonographic clock, an ingenious ar
rangement, devised by his host, which
was so set that the same spring
which started the alarm started, a
moment later, a phonographic at
tachment. The maker of the phono
graphic clock Raid he thought of
patenting it.
"You see," "lie snid, "the phono
graph, speaking to you after the
alarm wakes you, can be made to
say different things can be made,
for instance, if you have an impor
tant engagement, to tell you of It
can be made to state emphatically

why you should arise. Usually my
phonograph says to me: '(let up, it's

LUXURY AND GOOD HEALTH.
One Mflr Enjor Until In These Dmts
of sanitary Food Rod
Drink.
There never was a time, perhaps, in
the history of the world when there
was such a determined effort to find
nnd keep good health as at present.
Young and old are beginning to real
ize, apparently, that something must
be done to preserve bodily vigor.
Foods almost by the hundred are of
fered as sure promoters of vitality
and attractive advertisements con
tain more or less learned discussions
upon the value of strong nerves, pure
biood and a clear brain, says the
Cleveland Leader.
Those who do not live upon health
foods are devoting much of their
time to physical culture and nearly
every house in which there are young
people contains its quota of gym
nasium apparatus. Outdoor and in
door sports have more devotees than
ever before. Golf, baseball, football,
tennis, basketball, bowling and other
forms of amusement which induce
perspiration and increase the action
of tlie heart are depended upon to
supplement more physical culture, so
called, in building up strong bodies
and laying the foundation for good
health and long life.
Rattlra of the Haltlesiiake.
The rattlesnake's rnttle consists of
a number of hollow, horny rings,
somewhat like quill in substance and
interlocked with one another, while
Ihey are so elastic as to permit of a
considerable amount of motion be
tween them. These rings are not in
dicative of age, as has been supposed,
since in some years several appear.
while in others only one ring may be
developed.
Allien Iprim.
The sense of smell is mint Earry
allied to that of taste. Hearing and
seeing depend upon nerve responses to
vibrations in tiie air iu the eiher. In
order to taste a subject it has to be
