’ BEEF MALT.
What is Beef Malt ? ‘
Not a Patent Medicine or an Alcoholic Mixture.
No remedy has ever done so much good among weak, nervous, run
down men and women as BEEF MALT. No remedy has ever met the speedy
and permanent approval of so enlightened a portion of the community.
What then is Beef Malt ? _ .
It is the most perfect food ever made. It contains the strength of
the best beef the nutriment of the choicest grain, and the tonic properties
of celery. It is a wholesome, natural stimulant, safe and simple ; 1,891,080
bottles sold the first year it was offered to the public—a record not equal-
ed in the same time by any other preparation ever put upon .the market.
Beef Malt means to all fuller health, greater strength. This wonderful
tonic will be served free at our store during this week. All are inv1ted to
come in and try a sample.

A DOG lN CHURCH.
All the Congregation Interested in an
Incident of a Summer Day.
“You might think,” said a church
usher, “that there was nothing to do in
a church but seat people; but, dear me,
strange things are happening all the
time. One summer day, when the
church doors were open, I saw a dog ap-
pear. I stood at the back of the pews
just beyond the end of the middle aisle,
and the dog stood right at the end of the
aisle, looking at me and wagging his
tail. He was a nice looking dog, a sort
of red dog, shaggy and gentle looking,
but of course church was no place for
him. But he was nearer the aisle than
Iwas, and he was bound to make the
tour of the church, and I was sure he
would start down the middle aisle the
moment I made any serious effort to put
him out. Still I advanced toward him
with a friendly bearing and outstretched
hand, hoping that he would stand still
until I could get between him and the
aisle. He wagged his tail good humor-
edly when he saw me approach, but be-
fore I could get near enough to cut him
off he started down the aisle, so softly
that nobody heard him, and nobody saw
him until he had passed.
He came down to where he had started
and then trotted along the base of the
pews and out of the church by a door
opposite to the one by which he had en-
tered. The instant he stepped through
the door we heard the most tremen-
dous uproar; he had met another dog
outside.
“As a matter of fact, I suppose our
dog had come into the church to escape
the other dog; he didn’t want :to fight,
and I suppose he thought if the other
dog saw him go into a church he’d feel
kind of ashamed of himself and go
away. But he didn't; he just hung
around outside and waited. The peace-
ful dog was diplomatic, you see, too; he
went out by a different door from the
one he came in at, thinking, no doubt,
that the dog that wanted to fight would
wait for him where he came in, and that
he would escape the other dog and get
away quietly by going out at the other
door; but the other dog must have
guessed his intentions, for he was wait-
ing for him there.
“Our dog didn’t want to fight, but he
didn’t run away; good natured, shaggy
and gentle as he was, he pitched in and
fought like a demon. Between them
they made more noise than an earth-
quake. It pretty ne...riy broke up the
gravity of the entire congregation, and
the sexton had to go out and drive them
away; so we never knew how the fight
came out.”
Too Delightful.
“Isn’t this perfectly delightful?” she
asked, as they sat on the sofa with their
arms intertwined, and the brillantine on
his mustache not very far from the crim-
son balm on her lips.
“Dorothy,” he replied, “when I know
that your. mother is listening on the
stairs, that your father is waiting in the
passage with a cane, that the bulldog is
loose in the front yard, and that your
little brother is under the sofa, how can I
say that it is delightful?”—London Tit-

HOW A srssn IS OUT UP.
The Chicago Trust Has Paralyzed tho
Whole Meat Industry.
Careful study of the. accompanying
diagram of a prime steer as it reaches
the wholesale butcher from either of the
local establishments of the Chicago “Big
Three,” or their New York allies, will
clear up many statements that have been
published since the cattle combine put
the screws on and made beef dearer.
“Such beef as I handle,” said a dealer,
“will weigh 800 pounds, that is two
sides will weigh 400 pounds each. This
is dressed beef, all of which is cut up and
sold. There is no waste. The fat and
bones are sold. Such extras as you
see on the butchers’ stalls as brains,
tongues, liver, tripe, oxtails, etc., do
not come to us as dressed beef. These
are special lines handled by special
men. ~
“There is a steer,” and the dealer
pointed through the glass door of a re-
frigerator, “that weighed 800 pounds
when laid on these scales to-day. I paid
9 cents a pound for it. Don’t believe
these 11 and 12 cents stories, for they are
not true. It cost me $72 at the ware-
house. I hauled it here, must pay my
men to cut it up and deliver it and all
that. What will I get for what cost me
Just $75.26. ‘
$72?
“A steer goes into an abbatoir on the
hoof and every ounce of him goes out a.
commercial commodity. A 1,200 pound
steer will net 800 pounds of beef. The
hide is sold to the tanners. A limited
number of tails go to dealers in ox tails
and special dealers buy the tongues,
which are sold to delicatessens here, and
in Chicago go to the canners of ‘lunch
tongues.’ There isa limited demand for
brains. All livers find a ready sale, and
the lining of the paunch, known as
tripe, is growing in such favor that it
is all disposed of to dealers who
pickle it.
“From the pure fat is extracted the
highest quality of oleo oil. This is gen-
erally exported to Holland, where it
enters into the make up of the gilt edged
Dutch butter that commands fancy
prices in England. From other fats
come the lower grades of oleo Oil. From
selected bones are secured, by boiling,
gelatine, which is the basis of all cheap
jellies and marmalades. Stearine, used
as a base of chewing gum and for many
other purposes, is the product left from
the process of pressing out Oleo Oil.
“All hoofs are boiled, and the valuable
commodity known as neat’s foot Oil is
secured. The horns are sold to manu-
facturers of combs and fancy goods.
The hoofs after boiling are also used in
the making of horn ornaments. Every-
thing that is left, blood, entrails, etc., is
made into fertilizing material, not the
least valuable commodity turned out of
the abbatoir. I have no positive figures,
but I believe that the 400 pounds of
‘oifal,’ the term used as applying :to
everything except the actual beef, will
net the killer from $20 to $32. The
wholesale slaughterer does not get any
of the worst of it at any stage of the
game.”

penitentiary! That is the rem unable
fact which will appear in the forthcom-
ing report of Warden Hayes, of the
Kings County Penitentiary.
To be more explicit, there are now
within the cold gray and black Walls of
that institution seven men who, when
arrested for embezzlement of depositors
funds, were presidents of national
banks; twelve men who, when rounded
up in a career of crime by the strong
arm of the law, Were honored and re-
spected cashiers of'national banks, and
forty-nine other men who were trusted
clerks or tellers in banks of the same
class.
The Kings County Penitentiary is one
of the five penal institutions in the
country which, under contract with the
general government, keep in confinement
all prisoners convicted of felonies by
United States courts. The other prisons
that board Uncle Sam’s lawbreakers are
that at Albany, the Erie County Peni-
tentiary, , near Buffalo; the House of
Correction, at Detroit, and the meet
impregnable prison in the world, the
Minnesota State Penitentiary, at Still-
water, Minn.
The percentage of former bank officials
at Albany, Erie, Detroit and Stillwater
will average the same as at the Kings
County institution. ' The total number
is equally divided between the five
prisons. There are at present 405
“boarders” at Kings, of whom sixty-
eight are from banks. The total num-
ber of bank defaulters, embezzlers and
wreckers formerly connected with na-
tional banks alone will, therefore. ap-
proximate 340, or about one-sixth of the
total number of Federal prisoners in con-
finement for felonies.
‘ers,” said the warden, “I could fit
a bank out with a president and a full
force down to, but not including, the
janitor. It is a. remarkable fact, which
I have verified by looking over the
records, that although there have been
confined in this prison since it began to
receive United States prisoners, twelve
or fifteen years ago, a total of 130 bank
officers and clerks, we have never as yet
had a janitor or watchman or runaway
messenger.”
