Agonyl

The w0nderful cure related below 1s
by no means unusual with Hood’s Sar-
saparilla.

. - given health to suffering children,
" even when health seemedb impossible.
The secret of its success is that it puri-
éfies, vitalizes and enriches the blood.
1- “I wish to tell of a wonderful "cure
effected by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Five
{years ago my little boy was sudden-
ly seiZed with a severe lameness, appar-
ently' 1n his right knee, which some phy-

_‘ sicians said was rheumatism, while others
'said it was'hip disease and that it was

lncurahle

IDuring the next winter and spring he
ibecame rapidly worse. We took Jimmie
to a specialist, who said it was hip disease.
At this time the affliction became so
I severe that we could not move him with-
fout causing screams of agony. He be-
came reduced in weight to 30 pounds, and
r was but a shadow of his former self. We
‘ had about given up hope when we read 01
a cure by Hood’s Sarsaparilla of a similar
case. We resolved to try this medicine.
Jimmie was decidedly improved after
taking the first bottle. He was even

Better

after the second. We have sincevused
over a dozen bottles of the medicine, and
the change has exceeded our expectations.
.James is now able to walk without the
aid of crutches and goes to school every
day. He has been wonderfully cured
by Hood’s Sarsaparilla.” J. O. RUNDELL,
Oakley, Michigan.

Druggist 0.0. Tubbs says he knows the
Rundell boy has been wonderfully

Cured

by Hood’s Sarsaparilla and that Mr. Run-
dell is thoroughly reliable. He has a. good
sale of Hood’s Sarsaparilla and Hood’s
Pills, both of which am? giving 'perfect
53915" 'ction. He says Hood’s Pills seem
I to be the coming family cathartic.

saparilla do not be induced to buy any
other. Insist upon Hood’s, because

The Saddle
Question.

This' is an illustration

, of the old style saddle.
I " If you will observe it

/ ‘ carefully you will note
that it fits like a glove
(and a saddle should
not). It presses the sen-
sitive parts, causes sore~
ness, stiffness and chat?
ing, and has made cycl-
ing to a certain extent.
injurious, because few
could enjoy a long ride
without fear of injury.
All this is now changed. 7. Here is repre-
sented the perfect saddle—the Christy
Anatomical Saddle, ,
showing the pelvis as it ,
lests on the pads. The \
Christy Anatomical
Saddle is the only
saddle that is built
1. ght. Made of metal,
cflight weight, cannot
11 arp or change its
. hape, has pads that
rest the entire body,
does not press the sen-
sitive parts, prevents
stiffness, and makes

cycling a pleasure.

Operations of the Owners and Pro- "

will

Speculating.

Cripple Creek. so far as is, now
known. embraces a. little area. with ara-
dius of not more than three miles. It
contains, all told, perhaps eight or ten
square miles of ground. This at the
outside world yield 600 or 700 full claims.
On these there yvould be a possibility,
I do not say a probability, of finding
veins rich enough to bear the cost of
working. There are 'in the district, so
far, some 12, 000 located claims. You
may judge of the probable value of the
most of them.

Of these 12,000 claims of courSe the
many are merely fractional. About
1,300 are patented, and have title estab-
lished. Of these 1,300, 200 are shipping
ore. In other words, there are 10,000
odd claims in the district that so far
.as developed are practically worth
' nothing at all.

To put the matter in another way,
upwards of- 900 companies have been
organized thus far to operate in the dis-
trict, and dozens more are being put,
in the field each week. Of these 900 or
more companies about six per cent, of
50 or 60 in all, own producing mines.
And of the latter but 12 of 15 are divi-
(lend—payers.

Of course, in the clever and seductive
circulars which the countless mining
brokers scatter broadcast, you will read
of this or that company which will be
a dividend-payer the very next week,
or the very next month, or something
like that, and whose stock may be
bought now for a- song, and later be
worth par. And they point to numer-
ous instances—to such splendid mines
as the Portland, for example. Just a
year ago stock in the Portland was sell-
ing at 40 cents, and now it is some-
where around 200, and paying a. divi-

dend of. 12 per cent. on its value. There

are a number of such instances as this,

so that it is slight wonder that peOple

should lose their senses and invest in

all sorts of worthless and “wild-cat”

schemes that are thrown on the

market. But if you will recall to mind

that the gold kings of California did

not make their money mining in the

bills, but by manipulation on the stock

exchanges, you may perhaps conclude

to keep your money in a. safe place. I
do not mean that all of the stocks of—

fered on the exchanges of Colorado are
worthless, but I do mean to say that
most‘ of the companies that are being

floated or offered in the cast are the

sort that have no standing, or will

bring in Colorado nothing like the price

asked for them east. It is a fact that
more money is always spent on the
claims next adjoining a. bonanza mine
than is ever taken out of the mine it—
self.

In Colorado, or, for that matter, all
over the mining west, they divide mine-
owners into producers and consumers
-—into the men who put money into a
mine and the men who get money out
of it. The meaning of this is that min-
ing has come to be abusiness or a sci-
ence which requires skill and training,
and technical knowledge, and the same
amount of shrewdness and ability
which is required for success in any
other line of trade. There may be
greater follies than for an eastern man
to put his money into Colorado gold
mines. Just at the moment I think of
one—that is, speculating in mining
stocks.——Harper’s Weekly.

STANLEY AND THE CONGO.

The} Great Explorer Tells of His First

Journey Down the River.
The geographical world was anxlfius
to know what was this mysterious river
the quest of which had occupied Liv?
ingstone’s declining years. The Lon-
don Daily Telegraph Joined with the
New York Herald in defraying the
cost of this second expedition. The
story of how I set out a second time
from Zanzibar, circumnavigated the
Victoria Nyanza, discovered Lake Al-
bert Edward, voyaged around Lake
Tanganyika, and reached Livingstone’s
farthest point — Nyangwe -— on the
banks of the Lualaba, has been told in
detail in my book “Through the Dark
Continent.” It also relates how, after
a tedious land journey parallel with the’
river, I made ready my English boat,
collected about a score of native canoes,
embarked my followers, and how, after
,a course of nearly 1,800 miles, we
reached the Atlantic ocean at the
mouth of the Congo. By this river voy-
age the question which had puzzled
Livingstone for 11 years was solved.
It is a noticeable fact that when I began
my descent of the Congo I was the only
white man—excepting my companion,
Frank Pocock—to be found between
the Zambesi and the Bahr-el-Gha-zal,
and between Zanzibar and the Lower
Congo.

It may easily be understood why, on
returning from the discovery of the
great African waterway, I should be
anxious that England should avail her-
self of it. In 1816 England had dis-
patched a naval expedition under Capt.
Tuckey to ascend the Congo, but it ter-
minated disastrously 200 miles inland.
In 1873 Capt. Grandy, another English
'oflicer, had attempted the task. In
1876 Admiral Hewitt’s expedition had
suppressed the pirates of the Lower
Congo. For over 60 years England had
kept watch over the Congo slavers.
Half of the expenses of my expedition
had been contributed in England. She
was also rich, tender and just t6war‘d
the natives, and her people were the
best colonizers in the world. All these
facts were, in my opinion, claims that
might justify England in stepping for-
ward and taking possession. —Henry M.
Stanley, in Century.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

Some Hints Whlch the Wise Woman Will
Do Well to Note.

There is little change to record in
table linen, except that the pretty col-
ored lunch cloths are no longer in
vogue, and I am sorry. They were much
more cheerful than the small square
of linen in the center of a bare oak table
now preferred. The colored cloths now
serve as a. cover when the table is not
in use. There are very pretty ones, in
delft blue and white; and another dain«
ty pattern shown is on pale pink and
silv.er

If you wish pie-crust to be very nice.
fold it, lay it on a. plate, and stand in
the refrigerator over night. This will
improve ‘agood plain paste so that it
is almost as flaky as a puff paste. ,In
sealing a pie moisten the inside, but not
on the edge, with a. pastry-brush dipped
in water or the white of an egg. Put
the upper crust in place and press the
two together with the thumb dipped
in flour. Press together, but not on the
exact edge, or the pastry will not rise.

When the ice chest smells queer and
yet it is immaculately clean in every
nook and cranny of the compartment,
pour some boiling hot soda. water down
the escape pipe and look at the fearfully
and wonderfully made rope of solid
matter that is washed down by the
soda water. The pipe ought to be thus
flushed once a. week to keep the re-
frigerator sweet. No servant does this
of her own free will. Many mistresses-
don’t, either. Pour in cold water after-
w ard to cool off the box and wipe drv.
Food keeps better' 1n a dry, cold atmos-
pliers than it can in a. damp, cold one.

A great many women in this world
who fancy themselves good cooks spoil
every bit of food that they prepare, ex-
cept, perhaps, hard—boiled eggs and
baked potatoes. They are careless and
indifferent. If a. recipe calls for more
than they happen to have they make
it up with water; if they do not happen
to have the herbs and seasonings for the
turkey stuffing, they do not bother to
go or send to the grocer’s for them—-
just leave them out. They cut down

' the amount of butter that a recipe calls

for because butter is expensive, and the
result of these little economies and
carelessnesses is that the food is flavor-
less, spiritless and wearisome to the
palate. Really, they waste a good deal
because the food, not being especially
good, is not all eaten, and some must
be thrown away. Generally, economy
is excellent, but not economy of that
kind.

When particular baking is receiving
attention and several unfamiliar dishes
are being manufactured, it is of special
importance to have the oven in per-
fect condition, and as far as possible
under the control of the cook. The best
of stoves, says an experienced house--
wife, are tricky sometimes, and bear
watching. Nearly each one has its pct
peculiarity. A tendency. to burn at the-
bottom, or a habit of scorching at the
top, while the lower part remains raw
and sodden. Familiarity will enable
the cook to correct these difficulties.
She will overcome the first fault by
placing the grating of a. pan under the
baking dish, and the other by cover-
ing the cake or loaf withapan or paper
until the bot-tom is done. A plain piece
of manilla paper laid over the top of
a cake will insure thorough, even bak-
ing, when without this arrangement
the top would become scorched long be-
fore the cake was baked twhrough —Chi—

Asthmatlc Attacks.
The immediate cause of the distress
of an asthmatic patient struggling for
breath is the contraction of the bron-
chioles, which prevents the exhalation
of the air from the lungs without the
greatest effort. Temporary relief from

be obtained by causing the patient to
inhale some narcotic vapor, by means
of which the pneumogastric nerve is
obtunded, and thus the spasms are
made to cease. This, however, is ob-
jectionable, as it not infrequently gives
rise to a. drug habit, Before trying the
narcotic, it is best to obtain relief, if
possible, by attacking the cause of the
trouble. For instance, if it be accom—
panied by a fit of indigestion, wash-
ing out the stomach by means of a
stomach tube will often relieve the
most distressing paroxysm. If caused
by a prolapsed stomach or a. free kid-
ney, permanent relief may be obtained
by restoring these organs to proper po-
sition. Hot and cold sponging of the
spine and the application of an ice com-
press, or a rubber bag filled with broken
ice, on the front part of the neck, are
also means which have been found of
great- service in this trouble.-——N. Y.
Ledger.
Locks of All Colors.
An Atchison young man gets a. lock
of hair from every new “steady” and
has collected an elaborate array during
the ten years he has been in the market.
The color of the hair in his collection
varies from a bright red to a coal-
black. He has over 60 specimens, which
shows that he has averaged a new
“steady” every two months during the
time he has been gathering his collec-
tion. Some of his specimens have
faded badly, showing that the haid had
been dyed. One specimen has changed
from a deep black to red and gray. He
prizes his collection very highly and
keeps it locked up for fear some one
will steal it. Whenever he sees a. girl
with a. shade of hair which is different
from anything he has in his collection
he immediately goes after her and she
becomes his “steady” unti‘l'he gets a
“lock of her hair. Then he goes after
another girl with a. new shade of hair.
He has heard of girls who had blue
hair and is now looking for one. He
claims to have seen a. girl with a. lit-
tle blue mustache, but Was afraid to
ask for a Specimen.—Atchison Globe. '
