This fact proves that while Catarrh is a local disease, it is greatly influenced by constitutional conditions.

The man whose word is as good as his bond seldom hesitates about giving his bond. You never can conyince the poor man that the rich man was happier when he was poor. Reason usually has a hard time get- ting a willing audience, We never bump into a chronic grouch but what we give thanks that we’re not married to him, Sometimes the most unsatisfactory thing to get is satisfaction. The best you can say for some men is that their clothes are smart. The rich go south in the winter and north in the summer, and we some- times wonder why they ever go to the trouble and expense of maintaining a h home.—Detroit Free Press. LAGNIAPPE Every man is his own kind of a fool. ‘h seek out the $5,000,000 in gold which sunk with the liner Egypt six months ago. A specially equipped submarine will be sent to the bottom when the wreck has been definitely found. The hulk will be explored from all sides and accurate charts made. Targets will then be selected in the Egypt's hull and large holes made with torpedoes. Exactly what will happen then is a dark secret, except for the fact that & monstrous engineering device, rival- ing the dreams even of Jules Verne, is in preparation for the work. All that is known is that the human hand is the underlying motif of the scheme. The hands, attached to giant arms, will reach into the ship and grasp the chests of gold. The steel fingers will not relax, even though the water at that depth would crush a diver’s hel- met. The treasure will be lifted at the sea bottom and then brought to the surface. Details of this romantic undertaking have been thrashed out by hard-headed business men who are behind it and work will begin next month. It will last three summers. If the project succeeds it will open up the prospect of recovering untold millions now at the bottom of the sea Voice of Wisdom. Some great thinker has said that if you make 4& better mousetrap than any one else the world will beat a path | to your door. A young college grad- | uate was dilating on this. It was, he said, majestic philosophy. He proposed to mold his career accordingly. “Byerything depends on eircum- stances, boy,” responded his old uncle. “4 man in the mousetrap business | might well let the world beat a path | to his door, But a man with a filling station had better go where the road i" ome Rainy days are good for introspec- tion, One shoe is the most lonesome of all things, Nothing is sweeter than just love without frills, A man can be a hero to almost any one but himself, Some men misunderstand women; others take them for granted We will now give the plumber the money we save from the iceman. If there’s one thing all men would rather do it’s something else.—Rich- mond Times-Dispatch.

People who go to hear Sir Arthur Conan Doyle lecture and think him sensational ought to contact with him privately when he is tuning under the public rostrum, as it were—trying out his “dreams” on you and me, or a small group in some parlor, according to a New York letter in the Philadelphia Public Ledger. 2 His high spot in “thrill-‘ems” is a claim he has made of having had a twenty-minute chat since his arrival in the United States with the late Lord Northcliffe. He gives ali the de- tails of a remarkable conversation in which the departed publisher and pub- Ucist regrets not having his checkbook along, else he would write a good one for carrying forward the cause of spiritualism. - Sir Arthur in many of his talks with persons in the next world dispenses with mediums and controls. He claims to have had his Northcliffe interview without a medium as intermediary. Northcliffe came to him. What trans- pired was most delightfully informal and really cheracteristic of the bril- lant Harmsworth, who, according to Sir Arthur, even talked of individu- als who had been running his press since his death, and not in an alto- gether complimentary manner, SEEK RELICS OF OLD RACE Interesting Discoveries Expected to Follow Excavations in Mounds Near East St. Louis. The ruins of the largest prehistoric city in the United States le near the Juncture of the Missouri and Mississip- pi rivers close te Hast St. Louis, Tl. BRighty mounds are scattered over an area of two thousand acres. One of them is the largest ever found in this country. When white men first visited that region two hundred years ago they found a small village of Cahokia In- dians living on the site and the mounds had been given their names. But they told the white men the mounds were there when they came. No one could tell who built them nor what became of the vast population, It is believed these mounds were built by American Indians rather than by a separate race. The mounds are being excavated un- der the direction of Warren K. Moore- head, curator of the department of archeology, Phillips academy, Andover, Mass. Several years will be required to complete the exploration of the ruins. But the time is short. The spread of factories is so rapid in that locality that if explorations are de- layed the mounds might be leveled to make way for modern industry.. Thus the secrets of that ancient civilization would be lost forever. Two Ways of Looking at It. The list of applicants for the job had been boiled down to two, and those were told to call again the following day. After they had gone the fore- man said, “I think I would choose the dark fellow.” “Why so?” asked the boss. “Well, I noticed as he was going out he pushed on the outer edge of that heavy door, showing that he conserves his energy. The light fellow tackled it nearer the middle.” “Well, I don’t know,” sald the boss, “[ think perhaps the light fellow would suit us best. The way he tackled that door shows he isn’t afraid of work.”—Boston Transcript. Had Him Beaten. An artist was commissioned to paint the portrait of the flapper daughter of a wealthy family. One order of this kind successfully executed is apt to bring another, to work, Things went well enough the first day, which was spent in putting on the crayon sketch. The next day found him hesitating, and on the third day he came to a complete halt. After viewing his sitter in silence for a few moments he said: “I see that my paints are not going to be brilliant enough. JVhere do you buy your col- ors?” Where He Served. The girl plainly admired him. And, like Othello, he wished to tell her of hairbreadth escapes he had experi- enced and of many accidents by field and flood. She knew he had been in the army and, asked him where he served during the big war. This gave him palpable pause. How- ever, he cleared his throat several times and spoke up as bravely as he could. “I was buying mules on the Mis souri front.” A Feat of Memory. Herr Otto Schrader of Berlin is the possessor of a freak memory. The German Meteorological society tested it recently. “What was the weather on Nov. 26, 1890?” Schrader was asked. “It was clear before dawn; in the afternoon it became cloudy with snow flurries. The temperature was two or three degrees below freezing point,” answered Schrader. The scientists checked him up and found that he was right, Ship Built Inland. Two army transports, the Gen. Frank M. Cox and the Gen. John M. Hyde, have been built in the foothills of the Allegheny mountains, more than a thousand miles inland. This is prob- ebly the first time that ocean-goilng vessels of this type have been con: mtrocted at inland shipyards so he went happily wet fields—these and other severe conditions are met by the John Deere Grain Binderin away you willappreciate.

There are 40 or more species, most of which are found in Africa. The coloration of all species {s rich and varied, and the plumage of both sexes is practically alike. Francolins travel in family par- ties, rather than in convoys, and fly swiftly and heavily. They feed in the morning and at evening, at which time they utter loud and shrill cries. Their food consists of insects, berries, seeds and bulbs. Their nests are well concealed and resemble those of part- ridges. Six to fourteen eggs are laid in the fall and spring. The eggs are brown and buff in color, with small, dark spots. The francolin once abounded in southern Europe, but is now ex- tinct there. Got His Berries Easily. Two neighbor girls and I went black- berrying. It.was a very warm day and we worked hard, getting our pails full. The berries were fine, so we care- fully hid our picked berries under the bushes and filled other pails. When we came to get our first berries we found that someone had emptied our pails and taken our berrles—who, we did not know. A few months later the man who had stolen them told the girls’ brother how he had found black- berries hidden under the bushes in a certain grove and that he thought It such an easy way to get berries that he didn’t stop to pick any others.— Chicago Journal. Avoid Habit of Worrying. Worry is a form of friction. The task of the expert in life is to run his machine with the maximum of ac- tivity and the minimum of friction, If he stops or slows the machine, be- cause he cannot otherwise deal with the friction, then life has beaten him. The general human tendency is to stop friction by, partially stopping the ma- chine—espectally after what is loosely called “success” has been attained. Real success in life is the full smooth- running exploitation of the whole ma- chine with daily satisfaction to the me- chanic. And nothing else is real suc- cess in life—Arnold Bennett. Their Good Quality. A new governor was about to be sworn in and had invited some friends from his home town to witness the ceremony. They were plain people he had known in his youth. A pert miss who knew the successful candidate in- timated that his friends were not very smart looking. “They are a few old friends,” re sponded the governor. “Just a few tried and true old friends. They may not wear 20 much paint, but they'll wesh.” Sredeetoatentetentededetete death drotpetante rete rade seo ree ahoadondradondesteeteade WE HAVE JUST MADE A NICE LOT OF : Unbleached SILVER LOAF FLOUR from some of the best wheat available GUARANTEED TO GIVE SATISFACTION All Merchants carry it Ask them You can also get it at the mill on either ex- change of cash basis. ‘| Prairie Flour Mills Co.
