Liver AmTroub/e When the yellow flag of quarantine is hoisted over a dwelling it means disease sad danger. So when the yellow flag '.Sies in the face—when the cheek is sallow and the clear white of the eye is dyed .saffron—there is danger. It is liver wtrouble. The liver is one of the most im- 'portant organs of the body. On the aper discharge of its functions depend n health and happiness. When the Myer fails of its duty, poisons at once be- en to generate, and other organs of the 1ody become involved. Never neglect the liver if you valve health. If you are 'suffering from liver trouble, begin at once the ase of AYER'S Pius and yon will find prompt relief and permanent cure. "I was so weakened by liver trouble that I could scarcely lift my head. While in this condition I began the use of Ayer's Pals, and finding almost immediate benefit, continued their use until I was cured 4f my complaint." H. R. W. BENTLEY, Towner, N.D. TakeNo Chane.. WM Your Lives A YER'S Pi//s Birds in Alaska -e-Great numbers of wild birds nest in Alaska. Ducks, geese and swans build their nests on the ground. In the nest- ing area of Alaska it is said that the nests are so thick that it is impossible to walk without stepping on one. The natives are experts in killing this game. They do it with a peculiar weapon. Six sinew strings, about three feet in length, are fastened to- gether by a quill at one end. At the other end of each sinew is a ball of ivory, pearshaped, and about as large as a walnut. The hunter, with this in bis hand, approaches the flock at dusk. He sets these balls whirling. When the flock rises to fly, these whirling sinews are thrown into the flock. They catch about the necks and legs of the birds and they are captured. Travel- lers regret to see that the nests of these wild birds are so carelessly rob- bed of eggs. The eggs are wanted for the albumen that is used in manufac- turing, but eggs are taken that cannot be used, and these are thro vn away. So great is the destruction of eggs and birds that the birds each year occupy much less space in nesting. The Force of Cannon+Balls. BEING HIT BY A LOCOMOTIVE I8 NOTII- ING TO IT. resting comparison was made T. e American Machinist last week for the purpose of giving its readers an accurate idea of the tremendous force developed by big cannon nowa- days. The largest guns need on naval vessels to -day have a 13 inch bore, The projectile for a gun like this weighs 100 pounds and a charge of powder amounting to ,WO pounds is ignited be- hind it. The shot acquires a muzzle velocity of about 2,000 feet per second. Few 'people have any notion of the energy that is her e represented: - Our contemporary asks its readers to think of a locomotive engine weighing 100,000 pounds. This is fifty tons. Now if the locomotive were moving at the rate of forty miles an hour its energy would be scarcely more than one thir- teenth that ;of the cannon ball. In cther worts, if thirteen locomotives were to smash up against a stone wall all at once the blow which they would deliver would be no more severe,than that of one shot from the 13 -inch gun, assuming that the muzzle of the latter was placed only a few inches from the same wall. Inasmuch as the projectile would be small it would concentrate its action on one spot, and do more harm, apparently, than the thirteen engines. But the amount of energy would be the same. In one case there would be a small mass and a high velocity, and in the other a -large mass and a comparatively low velocity. Forty miles an hour is a pretty good speed for a locomotive, but not for a cannon ball. The mo- mentum of a moving object is comput- ed by multiplying the weight by the velocity, and this was done in the very suggestive and surprising calculation here quoted. It has been estimated by ordnance experts that if a shot from a 13 -inch gun should strike an armor plate only a few inches from the muzzle of the gun, it would pierce twenty-six inches of Harveyized nickel steel. Weak Kidneys. Always Cured by Doan's Kidney Pills. Mr. I.

A Boy Who Was Having Fun, but Who Strunk the Wrong Elephant. It was the day of "the greatest show on earth," the "eleven elephant show," and all the little ragarnuftlne in town had fol- lowed the oirous wagons from oars to show ground and from there to the river, where the 11 elephants were to be given the un- usual treat of a bath, or rather the obanoe to bathe themselves and one another. The small boys of the plaoe spent most of their summer day In "going In" also, but among them was one little pug nosed, freokled faded fellow—Paddy Polan by name—who could neither be coaxed nor driven into the water. Paddy was the most misohlevous as well as the dirtiest of them all, and no sooner bad the great oreeture.from the circus entered the water and begun to en- joy their clumsy gambols, with loud trum- PAT'S BATH. petings and the dashing of fountalne of water over one another, than Paddy sta- tioned himself on the edge of the bank and began to throw stones and unkind re- marks at them. The elephants, whose drab velvet cote had been changed to blaok satin by the water, were at first too happy to be teased, but their keeper, who had walked beside the baby elephant to the river, carrying in his arms the great milk bottle from whloh she took her dinner, warned Paddy not to bit the baby as the another elephant, Beat- rice, was very cross. Paddy foolishly kept on, and soon a stone struck the baby, and before the boy could make his escape the another with a yell of rage had seized him in her trunk and taken him out into the middle of the river. The crowd was silent with horror, ex- pecting to see poor Paddy dashed to pieces or his life trampled out by the herd. But, no; the others all stood bank and let Mme. Beatrice punish as•she would. She dipped the struggling, howling Paddy many times into the water; then, taking him to where the baby stood, she need him as a scrubbing brush or sort of wash rag on his fat baok and sides. Then, while every one screamed with laughter, she threw Paddy on the bank a sadder, wiser and cleaner boy, and there a chorus of voioes greeted him, orying: "Paddy went in! Paddy Polan went In l"—L.

It 1s known as the Yellowstone National park, but the great reservation is really a plaoe of refuge for many varieties of animals now nearly extinct in America. The most prized of all the animals are the bison'. Half a oentury ago thousands of these creatures roamed at will over tho western prairies. Now there are only a few hundred in ex- istence, and a small herd of them is in the national park. In addition to these there are some 40,- 000 or more antmals, many of the spsoles being on the increase in numbers. There are great numbers of elk and antelope, , There are beavers, porcupines, coyotes, mountain lions and so forth. Expert hunters and trappers have charge of Yel- lowstone park and are paid handsome sal- aries by the United States government to protect the reservation from the encroach- ment of poachers.—Chicago Record. No Head Covering For Girls In Japan. Mies Ida Tigner Hodnett wetter] of "The ,Little Japanese at Home" in S. Nicholas, Mitre Hodnett says: There is no special head covering is the native costume for girls. Indeed the mode of dressing the hair would not admit of hats and bonnets eucb as ours. There is rivalry among Japanese girls as to whose hair shall be most becomingly and artis- tically arranged, whose girdle be most gracefully tied and whose robe show the most harmonious effects, and they are quite equal to their western sisters in the taste for pereonpl adornment. The Japa- nese parasol is used as a shelter from the sun, and the European umbrella is gttin- lug favor. For going out in the rain there are rain coats and rain bats made of oiled paper.

Joints and Limbs Were Swollen Three Times Their Natural Size—The Sufferer in Bed for a Year and a Half. From the Eoho, Wiarton, Ont. Mrs W. Thew, who is well known in the town of Wiarton, was a sufferer from heart trouble and articular rheumatism for a per. iod of fifteen years. Lately her condition has so inuoh improved that a reporter of the Echo called upon her to ascertain to what cause the change was due. Mrs Thew, while not courting publicity, consented to give a brief statement of her case in hope that some othedeufferer might be benefitted. She said:— "My joints were all swollen up to three times their natural size and for a year and a half I was unable to leave my bed. I secured medical treatment and the dootore told me I would never be able to walk again, I took medicine theypresorib. ed but it fuiled to give any relief. II took patent medicines but they did not help me. 'driving noticed an advertisement in a paper for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I concluded to give them a trial and they gave me relief. From the time I commenced using them about the first of January last, I have tak- en ten boxes. I am now able to go around without assistance and do all my work." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure by going to the root of the disease. They renew and build up the blood and strengthen the nerves thus driving disease from the sys- tem.

The Sailor's 'Friend Samuel Plimsoll, r eported to be fat- ally ill at Folkestone on the Kentish coast, gave an example in his day of what can be accomplished by one man who devotes himself heart and soul to the accomplishuient of a worthy pur- pose. What the great Earl of Shaftes- bury did for the women and children mine -workers of England, Samuel Plimsoll did for the merchant sailors of Great Britain. Before he began to agitate reform in the shipping trade, the sending to sea of unseaworthy ships, and the system of overloading generally, had become a crying evil. By holding public meetings and agitat- ing in the press, he focussed public at- tention on wrongs to which mariners were exposed through the unscrupu- lous greed of shipping masters in those days. Entering parliament with the avowed pnrpose of securing the re- forms he agitated, he had Lo face com- bined and powerful interests, but after many rebuffs he finally succeeded in carrying his point in the passage of an act fixing the load line, known as the "Plimsoll Mark." He also put an end to the practice of sending rotten old ships to sea, and secured better food and treatment for•the sailors general- ly. That was in the days when the mercantile marine was mostly com- posed of wooden sailing ships, but al- though great changes have taken place, through the iron steamship tak- ing the place of the old steamship, the principle for which he successfully con- tended, still remains, and must be ob- served. Only those who knuw the former condition of the mercha:,t mar- ine and the way sailors were treated before Mr Plimsoll began his agitation can form an estimate of the extent and beneficence, of the good he accom- plished. As the sailors' friend his name will ever be held; in affectionate remembrance in the seaport homes of England. A woman never really knows the mean- ing of happiness and content until she is the mother of a healthy, happy child. The health of the child depends upon the health of the mother, both before and after birth. Most of all woman's weakness and particu• larty the weakness that most strongly in- fluences the health of children, comes from some derangement or disease of the distinct- ly feminine organs. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will cure troubles of this na- ture. It ehonld be taken regularly by every woman during the entire period of gestation. It gives strength to ell the organs involved, lessens the pains of childbirth and insures the health of both mother and child.

The Largest Natatory In the World—How It Was Started. The largest tobacco pipe fact,sy in the world is located in Appomattox county, near Yainplin City. It had been known for luau), years prior to the war between the states that there existed clay in that county well adapted to the manufacture of tobacco pipes, but the industry was carried on in the most desultory way. Sometimes a negro at odd times would fashion a few rude pipes and sell them in the neighbor- hood, generally at the country store. But at the close of the war the whites turned their attention to the clay deposits. It was a necessity, and not a matter of choice. The war had swept away everything. The implements with which the pipes were manufactured were simple and rude, and it must be confessed that the article which they fabricated did not bear the closest posslbluresemblance to those turned out by the thousand today. The pipes were sold to local merchants, who shipped them to wholesale dd'a.lers in northern cities, who sold them to retailers throughout the country. And now conies the part of the story that sounds rather romantic, though it is every word true. Among the retail dealers who purchased a lot of these poor men's pipes was a gro- cery man in a little town in Ohio. Ho sold them at from 2 to 6 cents apiece and found them very popular. Among those who purchased one was a wealthy citizen of tho town, who was led to do so by a less wealth' neighbor, who had found then sweet smokers. The cap- italist was delighted. Ho smoked nothing else for some time and finally inquired of the grocery man as to where the pipes were made. The latter could only give the name of the wholesale dealer from whom he had purchased, but from him the gen- tleman learned that the pipes were made from a clay bank in tho county of Appo- mattox, in Virginia. Tho gentleman saw that the pipes were of very rude construction. Ho saw also that were proper machinery used they could be turned out with great rapidity and that a profit could be mado at selling thein at a penny apiece. Ho was growing interested, and finally his mind dwelt so lunch upon the subject that he came over to Virginia and to the little town of Ap- pomattox. He went at once to the store of the dealer in pipes and was not long in finding that tho best were made at a bank about eight miles away, at what is now Parnplin City. The rest is soon told. The land was purchased for a small sum, buildings erect- ed, the latest machinery installed and soon the kilns were smoking.—Richmond Dis- patch. A GOOD CORN SHELLER FOR 250.

The Washington Post vouches for the truth of the following incident: Early last summer two young braves of the Creek na- tion quarrelled at a dance for the hand of a young girl whom they both wished to marry. They fought, and one was killed. Accord- ing to the usage of our courts, our survivur, Watka by name, would have been found guilty only of homicide, but by Indian law he was convicted of murder, and sentenced to death in August. 'Ho was then, also, ac- cording to usage among the Creeks, released on parole. This so common a oustom that it did not occpr to the people of the tribe as possible that he would fail to appear at the set time. Watka married the girl for whom he had fought, and worked hard to give her a home and support afteryhie death. On the day of execution he received a reprieve until the last day of October, in order ahat he might play in baseball games for which he was scheduled. The games were played. On the last day of October Watka set our alone for the execution grounds. Crowds had gathered to witness the tragedy. He walk- ed to the; plane marked for him. kneeled down, clasped his hands behind him, and olosed his eyes. The next moment he lay dead in punishment for hie prime. It did not occur to the Indian spectators that he had done anything worthy of re- mark. "A Creek" they said simply "keeps his word." How many white men would have kept. the t fatal tryst? Is the savage idea of hon- or along some lines of conduct higher than ours? 'Whatsoever things are true, what- soever things are honest,' let us think on these things.

Il CoolScot. _ Mr. McGregor, a Scot, who resides in San Francisco, is said by an exchange to be one of the most argumentative of then, and ane of the calnnest. Early one morning, as he was returning home, he was addressed by a man who emphasized his words with a pistol. "Throw up your hands!" "Why?" asked Mr. McGregor calmly. "Put up your hands!" insisted the footpad, shaking his pistol. • "Will you do what I tell you?" "That depends," said Mr, McGregor, ye can show me any reason why I should put un ma hands, I'll no say but what I wall; but yer moire requaist wad be no justification for me to do so absurd a thing. Noo, why should you, a complete stranger, ask me at this 'oor o' the mornin', on a public street, to pit, up ma hands?" "If you don't quit gassin' and obey orders, I'll blow the top of your head off!" cried the robber. "What? Faith, man, you must be not o' yer head. Udine, noo, puir bud- dy," said McGregor, soothingly, coolly catching the pistol and wresting it with a quick twist out of the man's hand, "come, noo, and I'll show ye where they'll take care o'"ye. Rech ! Dinna ye try to fecht, or ecod, I'll shoot ye. By the way, ye might as weel put up yer ain hands, an' just walk ahead of me. That's it. Trudge awa', noo." And so Mr. McGregor marched his than to the city prison and handed him over to Capt. Douglass. "It wudna be a bad idea to put him in a strait -jacket," he said serenely to the officer. "There's little doot but buddy's daft." And he resumed his homeward walk. There is a rumor going to the effect that the late Senator Du Blois of 13eau- port has left his estate to his nephew, Sir Adolphe Caron. It is worth $200,- 000.

Satisfaction with them is very general. When once they are begun I notice that a permanent customer for them is made. This; 1. believe, is through their intrinsic merit, which proves the bona fide character of the advertising. I think them specially useful in the general run of stomach troubles." An Elderly Lady. An elderly lady living at Fordham Heights, a part of New York City; '.:: and who was known to be a warm advocate of Ripens Tabules for any,',. case of liver trouble or indigestion, '. said to a reporter who visited her for the purpose of learning the particu- lars of her case : " I had alway$ employed a physician and did so me the last occasion I had for one, but at that time obtained no benefici: results. I had never had any faith in patent medicines, but having seen Pipans Tabules recommended very highly in the New York Herald con- cluded to give them a trial, and found they were just what my ease demanded. I hate never employed a physician since, and that moans a saving of $2 a call. A dollar's worth of Ripans Tabules, lasts me a month, and I would not be without them neve, if it were my last dollar." At the time of this inter. view there were ,: present two dangle... tern who specially' objected to their mother giving a testimonial which should parade hd name in the newspapers, but to do this the elder lady argued : "there may be other cases just like matte,', and I am sure I take great pleasure in recommending the Tabules to any' one afflicted as I was. If the telling: about my case in the papers enable ;. some other person similarlyafieeted, to be as greatly benefited as I ha'tro' been, I see no objection." The daujtlte ters, knowing how earnestly ghe-1 t, about the benefit she had receiVed, decided she was quite right. ♦ new style packet containing TM ernes Tinatee packed in it paper carten (without gl*M) ietet for West at some drug stores—ron taus carers.
