Mrs. Maud Balliugton Booth has pub­ lished the first ^chapters of the story of her life and work in Leslie's Monthly for October and they make an article not only interesting but of great perma­ nent value. She tells not only what she has <ioue for our prisoners but what she is doing to-day. There is another story of the delightful Pettison twins in the magazine this montli, and a rattling good Spanish-American romance togeth­ er with an amusing-burlesque, which describes a strike of the babies against scientific motherhood. These with six other short stories represent the fiction of a particularly «ood number. There is also an interesting personal narrative of a man who worked his way out West as a day laborer; an article on "Clouds," with some remarkable photographic il­ lustrations, and three or four excellent bits of verse. He Cared the Little Girl. Mr. Herman Muller, senior member of the firm of Muller & Leykom, ex­ tensive lumber and general merchants at Polar, Langdale Co , Wis., says: "My little girl was troubled with a bronchial cough and we tried several remedies without satisfactory results We finally gave her a few doses of Harts' Honey and Horehound, which quickly cured her." Harts'Honey and Horehound is a never-failing cure for all Throat and Lung troubles to which children aie subject. It is very pleas­ ant to take, and the absence of any deleterious or dangerous drugs makes it specially vain able for small children. 25c, 50c and $1.00 bottles. . Sold by G, W. Besley, druggist.

If you ever took DeWitt's Little Early Risers for biliousness or constipation you know what a purgative pleasure is. These famous little pills cleanse the liver and rid the system of all bile with­ out producing unpleasant effects. They do not gripe, sicken or weaken, but give tone and strength to the tissues and or­ gans involved. W. H. Howell of Hou­ ston, Tex., says, "No better pill can be used than Little Early Risers for consti­ pation, sick, headache, etc." Sold by all druggists. » Men oi oak Timbers of oak keep the old homestead standing through the years.

Florence and Venice and the rest are curped with the burden of a most dan* gerouM legacy from their past--the leg- uey of beauty. Because of this beauty (which the people themselves do not enjoy) the rich' of all nations flock to them, bringing full purses and a dispo­ sition to spare no expense. The native begins to regard these visitors as his natural prey. Why should he work when foreigners are so easily fleeced? Accordingly he does not work--at least in the productive sense; he touts and begs and sells ornaments at three times their real value. The victory instead of going to strength goes to weakness. Parents of the poorer class look upon a deformed or crippled child as a bless­ ing, since its pitiful helplessness makes It a more efficient beggar. Into these cities, where such a fine harvest can be gathered on such easy terms, the strong, Industrious peasantry are suck­ ed till they become idle, demoralized gamblers, and ail because they are the most beautiful places in the world, be­ cause their past is so glorious that strangers come from the ends of the earth to see its grave. Thus the mod­ ern Florentine lives, like some horrible cannibal* upon his own dead.--Londcn Outlook. Cured HeraorrhagM of the Lnngt, "Several years since my lungs were so badly affected that I had many hem orrhages," writes A. M. Ake, of Wood, Ind. "I took treatment with several physicians without any benefit. I then started to take Foley's Honey and Tar and my lungs are now as sound as ; bullet. I recommend it in advanced stages of lung trouble." Foley's Honey and Tar stops the cough and heals the lungs, and prevents serious results from a cold. Refuse su,bstitntes. Sol4tyr .G W.

TThey are of mixed blood, Spanish and In­ dian, though the Indian traits generally predominate. Their costume for high and holy days Is somewhat extraordinary. They wear skirts of satin or silk, heavily lace trimmed, and with short sleeved waists which may or may not be of the same material. The headdress Is the princi pal feature, being an immense affair of accordion plaiting stiffly laundered. It is usually white atid comes nearest in point of resemblance to the headdress of a Sister of Mercy. There is a curious custom among the men and maidens of exchanging the twigs of certain trees In perfect se­ crecy, except that each new twig is carried to the father or mother or guardian of each, who formally gives as­ sent to the further exchange of tokens. This is continued until the exchange of orange blossoms signifies betrothal. This pretty method of courtship is dy­ ing out Doctor* Conld Not Help Her. "I had kidney trouble for years," writes Mrs. Raymond Connor of Shel- ton, Wash., "and the doctors could not help me. I tried Foley's Kidney Cure and the very first dose gave me relief, and I am now cured. I cannot say too much for Foley's Kidney Cure." It makes the diseased kidneys sound so they will eliminate the poisons from the blood, and unless they do this, good health is impossible. Sold by G. W. Besley. Ttpa to the Wrong Pcnoa*. Some one in canvassing the tip sub­ ject has discovered that we tip the wrong people all the time. Particu­ larizing, the discoverer declares that It is the cook, not the waiter, who should receive this material expression of our favor and that it is the en­ gineer, not the conductor, who should have •the extras for getting us about on time when we travel in haste. Of course this discovery will not result In the searching out of the man behind the man who reaches out his hand for the tip. We shall continue to send our gratuities along on the same old lines, getting a smug contentment over feel­ ing that we have done our duty--de is it the satisfaction of making the petty display of our cash resources?--and that we can't be expected to chase up the real benefactor, but It adds an­ other complication to the tip question for those who already find it too per­ plexing.--Boston Transcript His Life Saved by tjmmberlmn'i Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
