Jap Olßeer a Coolie.
Th» otherffpy I wa» talking to a
very LutelllgefA man who han had
many opportunities of meeting globe
trot tecs—globe trotters for reasons of
business rather than of pleasure—anil
he told me.a remarkable story which
hail been to’d to him by one of these
Klolie trotters. The story throws u
significant light on the ri asi ns of the
extraordinary success the Japanese
have been gaining In their recent bat
tles.
A Japanese trader was leaving Port
Arthur Just as It became evident that
war must come. He had several
flunks. and these he entrusted to a
Chinese ccolle, who seemed to be well
up to his work, mid who handled the
trunks with the charncterlsdc prompti
tude ami facility of a Chinaman of
thnt class. When the Japan se g. ton
board he missed his coolie, and he
found among his baggage nnotiier
trunk which lie did not recognize. He
thought nothing more of the affair,
lieliorlng it to lie one of the mistakes
which were inevitable in a time of
bury and something like panic. But
when the vessel In which he was trav
eling had gone .some distance from
Port Arthnr he was approached by a
Japanese otllcer, evidently of high po
sition.
The officer remarked to the trader
that he had not paid his coolie. The
trader confessed that this was so, and
gave as an excuse that the coolie had
suddenly disappeared Just as the ves
sel was leaving.
"I was the coolie," said the Japanese
officer with n sinlle. "I have been in
Port Arthur as a coolie for six months,
and now I know all about it. and by
and by this will be useful."—London

THE PILLS THAT
CURE
RHEUMATISM
Mrs. Henry Story, of No.
532 Muskingdum Ave., Zanes
ville, Ohio, says: “My husband
suffered frtfm rheumatism so
that he could hardly stand. His
back hurt and he had such
pain in his left arm that he
could not rest night or day.
The doctor did him no good
and it was not until he tried
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills that
he was helped. Six boxes cured
him completely and he has not
had an ache or a pain since.
We think the pills are the best
medicine in the world.”
Dr.Williams’
Pink Pills
for Pale People
cure rheumatism because they
make new blood. It would be
folly not to try a remedy with
such a convincing record of
cures.

An Honest Opinion.
Mineral, Idaho, Nov. 14.— (Special.)
—That a sure cure has been discovered
for those sciatic pains that make so
many lives miserable, is the firm opin
ion of Mr. D. S. Colson, a well-known
resident of tills place, it nd he does not
hesitate to say that cure is Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. I'lie reason Mr. Colson Is so
firm In his opinion Is that he had those
terrible pains and Is cured. Speaking
of the matter, he says:
"I am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. I had awful pains In my hip so
1 could hardly walk. Dodd’s Kidney
Pills stopped It entirely. I think they
nre n grand medicine.”
All Sciatic and Rheumatic pains nre
caused by Urie Acid In the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kid
neys and healthy kidneys strain all the
Urie Acid out of the blood. With the
cause removed there can be no Rheu
matism or Sciatica.
Ills Caused by Sunlight.
While the rays of the sun possess a
stimulating and bcnetlcial effect In
disease and can be used with ndvnn
tage as a therapeutic agent, yet, ac
cording to recent Investigations, they
also may act injuriously and cause dis
ease. That there is a difference in
tile therapeutic value between the ac
tinic rays, or those located at the violet
end of tlie spectrum, and the nsl rays
was appreciated by Finsen. and the
former were used in the treatment ot
such skin diseases as lupus vulgaris,
or tuberculosis of the skin, while the
latter were found effective In cases of
smallpox.
One of the most recent researches
in this department is by Prof. Fermi
and is given In a late number of the
Archlv fur Hygiene. In these experl
meats a large number of human sub
jects were exposed to direct sunlight
for varying periods, and In a largo per
ccntnge of cases it was found that
there resulted the following set of
symptoms: Cepbalagla (headache), dry
ness of the nasal mucosa, snuffling,
coryza (eold lu the head), pharyngitis,
weariness, slight conjunctivitis, dry
ness of the lips, fever,pseudo Influenza,
constipation, insomnia. epistaxis (nose
bleed) and various pains. From this
list ot symptoms experienced by his
patients and from the observed colncl
deuce of certain diseases nnd meteor
©logical conditions Prof. Fermi con
eludes that exposure to the sun’s rays
Is a predisposing factor in coryza, in
tluenza, bay fever and epidemic menln
gitis.—Harper's Weekly.

Jealonsy In Japan.
Japanese ladles afflicted with the
green-eyed monster use a shnim smite
what similar to those practiced In Eng.
land and Scotland by the witches of a
few centuries since. The aggrieved
damsel rlse.s at "the hour of the Bull”
—about 2 a. m.—dresses herself in
white, with flowing hair, places a tri
pod bearing three lighted candles on
her head, a mirror round her neck, and
a lighted torch of bamboo and pine
roots in her mouth, and takes tin- effigy
of the faithless oue to some shrine,
where she nails it to a tree in the
grounds. The unlucky original suffers
untold pains in the spot where the nail
is driven, but should the charmer meet
the ghost of an enormous bull nnd
show her terror tho spell will fall.
Charms for the smallpox nre also used,
and they consider n piece of paper
with the Impression of a black hand
or n similar scrap of red, with three
of the characters tor horse, as an Infal

Tho Daisy.
In French the daisy is called la
Marguerite. It was the device of Mar
guerite of Anjou, and also of Marguer
ite of Valois, a much more appropriate
emblem of the latter princess, who

become a recluse, than of the ambi
tious Lancastrian queeu of England.
The daisy is the national flower of
Italy, chosen in honor of Queen Mar

it signifies innoceuce, peace, hope. In
the age of chivalry it was the emblem

I Young women may avoid much sick- $
ness and pain, says Miss Alma Pratt, if
they will only have faith in the use of
Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
“Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — I feel it my duty to tell nil young woniea
how much Lydia E. Pinkhatn’s wonderful Vegetable Compound ban
done for me. I was completely run down, unable to attend school, and.
did not care for any kind of society, but now I feel like a new person,
and have gained seven pounds of flesh in three months.
“ I recommend it to all young women who sulfer from female weak
ness.”— Miss Alma Pratt, Holly, Mich.
FREE MEDICAL ADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLS.
AH young girls nt this period of life are earnestly invited to
xvriteMrs. Pinkham for advice; she has guided in n motherly way
hundreds of young women; her advice is freely nnd cheerfully
given, and her address is Lynn, Mass.
Judging from the letters she is receiving from so many young girls Mrs.
Pinkham believes that our girls lire often pushed altogether too near tlie
limit of their endurance nowadays in our public schools and seminaries.
Nothing is allowed to interfere with studies, the girl must be pushed to
the front and graduated with honor; often physical collapse follows, and it
takes years to recover the lost vitality,—often it is never recovered.
A Young Chicago Girl Saved from Despair.
“Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — I wish to thank you for the help and ben
efit I have received through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound and Liver Pills. When I was aliout seventeen
S years old I suddenly seemed to lose my usual good
health and vitality. Father said I studied too
hard, but the doctor thought different and
prescribed tonics, which I took by the
quart without relief. Reading one day in
tlie pajK-r of Mrs. Pinkham’s great cures,
and finding tlie symptoms described an
gJnMHwy swered mine, I decided I would give Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a
trial. I did not say a word to the doctor;
'jflgUNpr I bought it myself, and took it according
to directions regularly for two months,
and I found that I gradually improved,
♦ and that all pains left me, and I was my
/ old self once more.—t Lillie E. Sinclair,
17 E. 22d St., Chicago^lL”
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the one sure rem
edy to be relied upon at this important period in a young girl’s
life; witli it she can go through with courage and safety the work
she must accomplish, and fbrtify her physical well being so that
her future life may be insured against sickness and suffering.

The Place of the City.
Ail this present talk about "race
suicide" suggests at least one inter
esting Idea. The large cities are no
places fur the rearing of large fam
ilies. Cities are simply Intensitied cen
ters of social. Industrial and commer
cial activity, necessarily crowded,
necessarily huddled, and suitable to
live In only because what some men
must do and wlmt some men must
have It there to be done and to be got.
The country and the town nre feeder
fur the city, for city stock decays a'
a time In the modern rush. The
is the place to concentrate racial and
individual energy on the’ public needs;
It is not the place for race replenish
ment Natlorfs are liable to die at the
top; they get bald before they lost the
strength of their legs: and Hie repl n-
Ishment of the train musfeome from
the heart ami the lungs, nt from It
। self. Let the countryside and the
towns continue to rear sturdy citizens
and continue to send some of them
with an increasingly Improved equip
ment to take up the struggle in the
cities.—The Week’s Progress.
