Professor Frederick von Martens, who holds the chair of International law in the St. Petersburg university and is a frequent representative of the czar in legal councils of moment, is not a Russian citizen, nor even a Rus­ sian subject, but a philosophic German. He is a notable linguist and author, and at the Venezuela arbitration con­ ference in P^ris, where he read the de­ cision of the commission, be had a pleasant fashion of addressing each delegate in his own language. One of the English jurists wondered how the professor was able to keep up his knowledge of so many modern tongues. The professor replied: "It Is self de­ fense. You see, in case I lose my chair I wish to be prepared for any offer you foreigners may make." -- Saturday Evening Post. Safety J*|„ Battle. Every soldier believes that the only safe place under, fire is the recent scene of some cannonade escapade. When defending a fort oreamp. the wounded are generally placed in the breaches, as the enemy is not likely to waste pow­ der and shot on points which have al­ ready been cleared of all barricade. The same holds true of Jiaval engage­ ments. Sailors much to sit in some yawning gap still hot and smok­ ing from the effect of a splintering cannon ball than behind the 11001691 bulwark. _ ^ . Progress. An Egyptian paper announces that "first class, up to date, modern dining cars" are to be run this season between Cairo and Luxor and that "an Ameri­ can dentist has started In business at Assouan, which is off1 the edge of the Sudan." A "palace hotel" at Khartum for the special accommodation of tour­ ists will also be completed and opened for business in about three months. Malaga usually has about 16 rainy days a year and at least 200 days when there is not a cloud to the blue .. * . , Cheese In- Swiss Families. The social rank of a family in Swit- Eerland is estimated by the age of its cheese, and the greater the respeet due to or the affection for a guest the older is the cheese set before him. There are In each pantry at least as many chccscs as there are boys and girls in the family, for at the birth of every child a cheese is made. If is first cut into on hJ&jor her wed­ ding day, on which festive occasion all the guests partake of a piece of the groom's and the bride's cheese In order to secure for them all earthly thrift and happiness. The rest Is served as a token of friendly souvenir and heart­ felt mourning after the tomb has clos­ ed over his or her earthly career. Moreover, when a Swiss youth falls in love and wishes to pay court to the girl of his heart he goes to her father and asks permission to share the fami­ ly dinner next Sunday. This is al­ ways granted if he Is respectable, for It would be considered a deadly insult to refuse. The anxious question In his mind is, "Will papa bring out the cheese V* Papa does not usually hurry to re­ lieve his fears, having the family dig­ nity in mind and wishing to proceed with due deliberation. If he is indeed satisfied with the suitor, he at length rises from his seat, goes solemnly to the cupboard, takes down the oldest piece of cheese, splits It and hands a piece to the youth and one to the maid­ en. and from the moment they have tasted it they are betrothed. Both Had Been Oat. "The revenue cutters of the United States, as you may know," said an offi­ cer of one of them who likes his little joke, "confine their services, which are really invaluable to the government, to the coast, and It is a rare thing indeed for any one of them except those of the Bering sea patrol to venture any dis­ tance out to sea. Nor Is this rule an unsatisfactory one, for, say what you please about it, sea service is not as pleasant as the novelists and other ro­ mancers wbuld have you believe. "But I am getting off of my story, .which applies to the cutter Grant when she was doing duty In New York bay and vicinity. Something had happened to call her down the shore somewhere, and she left the bay one afternoon, and early the next morning, while she was bowling along at about seven knots an hour, she hailed a big four master. " 'What ship is that?' came the cry from the Grant. " The Royal Bengal Tiger, 243 days out from Calcutta,' came the reply. 'What ship is that?* "'Revenue cutter Grant,' was the plaintive answer, 'and we've been out all night' "--Washington Star. , A Bold Little Bird. The honeyblrd is a well known denl- fcen of many parts of the Transvaal. It has the unique peculiarity that It does not fear men and women, but actually flies up to them, uttering a -plaintive low note and, flying about their heads, tries to lead them on to the nearest clump of rocks or kopje. The bird knows full well that under a certain rock lies a stjwe of honey, con­ cealed by the cunning bees, and, rock honey being as much esteemed by birds as by human beings, the clever little fellow tries to Induce a friendly being with two strong hands to push aside the rock, so that It may get to the honey. if it succeeds in its object and the traveler on the veldt, attracted by the bird's flutterings to and fro between himself and the rocks, finds the honey, the bird changes its plaintive tone to one of joy and pleasure, as much as to say, "Thank you very much." Bpltapha In * Tyrolean Churchyard. A German traveler has discovered some quaint epitaphs in a Tyrolean cemetery. On a tombstone jn the valley of Tux was this Inscription, "In pious remem­ brance of the honest widow Anna Krledl, 40 years long." A miller Is thus remembered, "In Christian mem­ ory of , who departed tliis life with­ out human assistance." A farmer whose initials only are given and appears to have been the author of his own epitaph has this memorial: "Here rests in God F. K. He lived 20 years as man and 37 years as husband." On the tomb of a man who fell from a roof and was killed are these words, "Here fell Jacob Hosenknopf from the roof into eternity." This wail of a desolate husband caps the climax, "Tears cannot bring thee back to life, therefore 1 weep." A Good Excuse. __ "You wish to be relieved from jury duty, but you haven't given a good rea­ son," said the judge. "It's public spirit," said the unwill­ ing Juryman, "on the score of economy. I have dyspepsia, your honor, and I never agree with anybody. If 1 go on this Jury, there'll be a disagreement, and the court will have to go to the ex­ pense of a new trial." "Excused," said the judge.--Tit-Bits. He Knows Her. She was a Washington woman well acquainted in diplomatic circles. Talk­ ing about Washington people one day, some one asked her: "Do you know Senator Blank?" "Do I know Senator Blank?" she re­ peated. "Yes, I do know him. and he knows me. He will never forget me. I've trumped his ace when we were partners at whist."--New York Times. Efficient Cavalrymen. "Speaking of cavalry," said a veteran officer, "probably the hardiest and most effective cavalry forces the world ever saw were some of the Confederate squadrons In the civil war. Why, For­ rest's troops harassing Sherman to the sea used up horses at the rate of 11 per man in a twelvemonth."--*Indian­ apolis News. s " ' 1 *".* Council Proceedings. , ' Council Room, McHenry, 111.

The kidneys are your, blood purifiers, they fil­ ter out the waste or impurities in the blood., If they are sick or oat of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheiK matism come from e% f cess of uric acid in thai blood. due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, ai>d makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney* poisoned blood through veins and arteries. it used to be considered that only urinar|r troubles were to be traced to the- kidney* but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin­ ning in kidney trouble.
