I suffered intensely from severe pains in the small of my back and through the kidneys and was annoyed by pain- ful passages of abnormal secretions. Doctors failéd to relieve me.

Mrs. Mellem is one of those inof- fensive persons who are continually lreading they may by some mischance hurt the feelings of others. Added to this she has had considerable trouble n getting a suitable cook, and does 10t wish to offend her.

Y¥., says: “I wish o give thanks for the marvelous cure f my mother by Cuticura. She had i severe ulcer, which physicians had »xronounced incurable. It was a ter- ble disfigurement, and people would stand in amazement and look after her. After there was no hope from loctors she began using Cuticura Ointment and Pills, and now, thank God, she is completely cured, ind her face is as smooth and clear as ever.

Chicago Journal. As a Preliminary. In choosing bridesmaids,” said the young girl who was about to be mar- reading from her favorite home paper, “one should take pains to select zirls with gracefully poised heads, who walk well.” Just as her mother was about to commend this very excellent idea the nid gentleman gave a scornful snort and broke into the conversation. “We'll have a cake wallk as a pre- liminary test,” was all he said. But it was enough. They refused to speak to him for two days, at the expiration of which time they were in need of more —New York Press. money. MIGHT HAVE SAVED IT. A Lot of Trouble From Too Much Starchy Food. A little boy of eight years whose parents did not feed him on the right kind of food, was always nervous and suffered from a weak condition of the stomach and bowls. Finally he was down with appendicitis and er the operation the doctor, know- that his intestinal digestion was y weak, put him on Grape-Nuts wice a day. He rapidly recovered and about two months thereafter his father states, He has grown to be strong, muscu- lar, and sleeps soundly, weighs 62 pe and his whole system is in a fine condition of health.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. It is plain that if he had been put on Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in his life, and kept from the use of foods that he could not digest, he nev- er would have had appendicitis. That disease is caused by undigested food de ying in the stomach and bowels, causing irritation and making for the growth of all kinds of microbes, set- ting up a diseased condition which is the active cadse of appendititis, and this is more marked with people who do not properly digest white brgad. Grape-Nuts is made of the selected parts of wheat and barley and by the peculiar processes of the cooking at the factory all of the starch is turned into sugar ready for immediate diges- tion and the more perfect nourish- ment of a!! parts of the body, particu- larly the brain and nerve centers. taken Read the little book, “The Road to Wellville.” found in each pkg. * the jury.—Chicago Daily News. DEFECTIVE PAGE Tidbits of News efra Scandinavians; ‘OLE BRUE AND HIS CREW SAFE. Uraedd Now Safe in Harbor at Glou- cester, Mass. Capt. Ole Brude and his three bold sailors reached Gloucester, Mass., early last Sunday morning in their unique lifeboat, the Uraedd. , Their coming was not as dignified as they had expected, for the boat stranded on the beach and was beaten about by the surf; but this accident was not without good, for it served to show that the boat could stand a lot of buf- feting without receiving serious dam- age. Capt. Brude has been six weeks in coming from St. Johns, N. F., and has encountered all the way about as severe weather as might ever be ex+ pected at sea. After passing Cape Cod on the way to Boston the boat was beaten back by wind and wave with- out being able tO receive any aid from shore or passing vessels. Consider- able anxiety was displayed when the Uraedd failed: to reappear, but on the advice of Mate Iver Thorsen, who had sailed out of Gloucester for several years, it was decided to change the course and head for that port. He got by Eastern port and Ten- Pound light all right, but was misled by an electric light at Western avenue. When he went from this port there was an arc light on the Atlantic dock. This has since been removed. Follow- ing the Western avenue light, the men soon found themselves hard and fast on the sand. After ascertaining their position, they clambered out of the manhole and waded ashore, thoroughly drench- ed. The interior of the Uraedd, even in the stormiest weather, the men say, was so dry that slippers were worn during the entire voyage. The atmo- sphere was, however, rather chilly. A semblance of discipline was kept up on board and watches were main- tained. The men would often go on deck, much to the amazement of those who saw them. Notwithstanding their cramped quarters, the men passed the time pleasantly in reading, games and other diversions. The highest rate of speed of the craft under the most favorable circum- stances approximated five knots, al- though the average in rough weather was two and one-half knots. Capt. Brude says he will now go to Boston and then to New York. Next summer he says he will make a'pleas- ure trip back to France and enter a claim for the Frenchman’s reward. He claims he has demonstrated that he has an indestructible life boat. His boat has a maximum capacity of forty persons, and the average ocean liner, he says, can carry ten of them on each side, having a total capacity of 800 persons. He also thinks that his boat with a motor is the ideal one for life-saving stations, and can be navigated in the fiercest gale. Should the craft get into breakers he feels confident she would roll until evertually she came to firm ground. A small hole in the boat, which may easily be remedied, is the only indica- tion of her rough usage, except for the loss of much of her ‘paint. Much interest has been manifested throughout the Northwest, as the members of the crew have many per- sonal acquaintances in this part of the United States, and Brude’s lifeboat stands in a good way to obtain the prize of 1,000,000 francs offered by the French government. Moreover, Brude lived in Minneapolis three years previous to returning to Aalesund, and his triumph may be shared in a re- mote way by that city. CELEBRATED AN ANNIVERSARY. Hemlandet of Chicago completed its fiftieth year of existence last week, and observed its golden birthday by issuing a special edition, which is handsome and interesting. It was one of the earliest Swedish publications in America, and the only one which has lived half a century. Published first in Galesburg, Ill., Jan. 3, 1855, it has seen many vicissitudes and had many homes and changes of management, but has continued to grow and to-day is probably as influential an organ as the Swedes have in America. It was founded by Rev. T. N. Hassel- quist, and among its editors and pub- lishers are included the greatest Swed- ish names in America, such as Dr. Erik Norelius, Dr. Erland Carlsson, the | pioneer clergyman; John A. Enander, G. A. Bohman, Herman Stockenstrom, Dr. E. R. Gervin and A. E. Johnson. The paper is now in the hands of A. E. Johnson, a Knight of Vasa, and John A. Enander, one of the most prominent of Scandinavians in Amer- ica.’ Space does not permit a repeti- tion of the story of, Gama och Nya Hemlandet, but it has an honorable and enviable history and the well- wishes of all contemporaries. Revenues Are Increased. The proposed increase of internal revenue and duties on liquors by the Norwegian government was passed by the storthing by a vote of 102 to 10, and is already in effect. The increase amounts to 10 or 12 ore a bottle, and is sure to be deplored by the people. The government expects an additional income of 700,000 kroner per annum from the tax. Caller—Will the cashier be away long? Office Boy—It depends entirely on Sut Oreconian’s First Experience With Cabbies Scared Him. “As it was my first visit in New York, and as no first visit there is complete without some pea-and-shell experience. I was prepared to have something happen during my stay,” said 2 local web-footer, lately returned from a trip east. “But 1 hadn’t expected to be bun- coed before I'd got away from the de- pot. “I carried a suit case which had cost me a week’s salary, to say noth- ing ef the tooth british and pajamas I hoped to use during my stay at the Waldorf Astoria. I hadn’t taken more than two sniffs of the genuine New York air before a chap dressed like a hack driver ran up to me with, ‘Have a cab, sir?’ “I thought I would better have one to keep from getting lost in the great city, and so handed him the suit case. You can guess my feelings when T saw that chap take it and run Ifke the devil. “He was a real sprinter, and I real- ized that I could not hope to,overtake him. I could only stand and stare after him as his figure rapidly dimin- ished with the perspective of dis- tance. ““Well, I'll ybe hornswoggled!’ said I. At that moment one of his confed- erates, also dressed like a hackman, approached and tried to reassure me by saying that the fellow hadn’t stolen my ‘grip’; that he had only hurried off to. get his place in the line of hacks. I noticed that the line was about a quarter of a mile long.” “Did you get your suit case?” “Just wait. I suppose they saw I was not the man to be trifled with, or else there was nothing in the case that they really wanted. At any rate, after I had resolutely waited for some time, my man drove up. It may have been fool-hardy, but I committed my- seif to his carey and was safely driver to my hotel.”—Oregonian. Tea Growing in South Carolina. Dr. Charles A. Shepard of South Carolina has proved on his own plan- tation at Summerville, 20 miles out of Charleston, that the growing of tea can be carried on successfully and profitably. He has been doing this for the past 12 years with such good re- sults that the secretary of agricul- ture and the congress of the United States highly approves his deeds, and both are extending him liberal assisi- ance. “My idea from the start,” said Dr. Shepard, “was to add an additional crop to the farm products of the coun- try. The road to agricultural suprem- acy is through diversifying. My friends seem to think I have been suc- cessful, and I have every reason to be gratified with what has been ac- complished. Tea raising in the Un ed States is certainly practicable. It is no new thing in this country, fo: in the old days a French priest plant-| ed tea on the banks of the Ashley riv- er. But owing to the difference in the cost of labor the United States cannot compete with the orient in low grade or cheap teas. [I will pay us to pro- duce only that of the highest quality and which brings a high price in mar- ket.

We stew and fret and toil and sweat And try to win a name, : We strive for years with many tears To win a little fame, And by and by we up and die And all is just the same— So what's the use? We all grow old in search of gold And slave our lives away, We sell our souls for greenback rolls And barter love for pay, a And by and by we up and die And then we turn to clay— So what's the use? For love we cry. for love we sigh, To love we fondly cling, For eyes that shine we peak and pine And wince at Cupid’s sting, And by and by we up and die And everything takes wing— So what's the use? We join the race for social place And hope at last to shine And spend our cash to cut a dash And when we get in. line, Why, by and by we up and die, We're planted ‘neath the vine— So what's the use? Just do your best and leave the rest To fate or what you will, Go play your parts and break your hearts And drink of life your fill, For by and by you'll up and die, And all your hopes be nil— So what’s the use? Suggesting a Variation. Fifteen minutes after, the prodigal son returned, his father, axe in hand, started for the barnyard. “Now, look here, dad,” said the boy, hurrying after him, “I don’t want you’ to kill any fatted calf on my account.” ‘Yew always wuz a thoughtful boy,” muttered the old man, huskily. “And do you remember, dad, how [ always used to prefer turkey to veal?” inquired the naive youth—Puck. Expects Much From China. Ng Poon Chew, managing editor of the Chung Sai Yat Po, a San Francis- co Chinese daily, lectured there in English on the “Far Eastern Crisis.” He justified Japan in making war and said: “But China will eventually be a great and grand nation and will en- joy her heritage. She has a grand future, a future of prosperity, for they are not all fossils and old fogies there, as is sometimes thought.” Referred to Authority. Congressman Cooper of Texas tells about a distinguished army officer who on one occasion offered prayer before aregiment. He summed up the causes and objects of the war—the war with Mexico—and asserted that it was no war of conquest, but annexation paiy, eoncluding his supplication to the throne of grace with: “I refer you, good Lord, to Polk’s message on this subject.” Served Like Asparagus, With French Dressing. “T had a bamboo salad last night in Chinatown, and it was delicious,” said an epicure. “I ate it like asparagus. I dipped the long, slim stalks into a saucer of French dressing, and half sucked and half chewed the tender ,juicy ends. Believe me, bamboo is better than as- paragus, and it is also more expensive, “My Chinese host told me that bam- boo, for eating, must be cut during the first weeks of the spring growth. It has an outer enyelope or bark. This is removed. The interior is what is eaten. “Bamboo tastes like Brussels sprouts, only it is more delicate. It tastes like an etherial kind of cabbage. Dipped in a sour French dressing it makes the best salad [I have ever tasted.”—Newark News.
