6 OREGON CITY. COURIER, FRIDAY. JULY 24, 1903. "" NAPOLEON AND DANGER. fcOlrar'a Strlkine Cartoon, Wkicll Wan ruliliKhed In 1808. ; The dangers which tlireatened Nnpo- f Icon in the opening years of the nine; ; ;aenth century were shown by Gillray i ; i one of the most striking of all hia cartoons, the "Valley of the Shadow of Death," which was issued Sept 24, VH)H. The valley Is the valley of Bun- ' fan's allegory. The emperor is pro feeding timorously down a treacherous rath bounded on either side by the wa ters of Styx and hemmed In by a circle ft 0atne. From every side horrors are springing up to assail him. The British J'.on, raging and furious, is springing at iJs throat. The Portuguese wolf has ) roken his chain. King Death, mount-1 d on a mule of "true royal Spanish ' feed," has cleared at a bound the body ' f the ex-King Joseph,, which has been shrown Into the "ditch of Styx." Death i poising his spear with fatal aim, j Willingly holding up at the same time its hourglass with the sand exhausted; : tames follow his course. From the ' moke rise the figures of Junot and npont, the beaten generals. The pa "n! tiara is descending as a "Roman sieteor" charged with lightnings to 'sfast the Corsican. The "Turkish new :;ioon" Is seen rising In blood. The . "spirit of Charles XII." rises from the ' 'jimes .to avenge the wrongs of Swe len. The "Imperial German eagle" la 'merging from a cloud; the Prussian lrd appears as a scarecrow, making frsperate efforts to fly and screaming everige. From the "Lethean ditch" the "American rattlesnake". Is thrusting .'orth a poisoned tongue.. The "Dutch -rogs" are spitting out their spite, and ?h,fthenlsh confederation Is personi fied as a herd of starved "rats" ready a feast on the Oorslcao. The great Hosstan bear.'Vtlie only ally Napoleon tat secured,. Is shaking his chain and rroaning, a formidable enemy in the rear. Frederic Taber Cooper and Ar hur Bartlett Maurice in Bookman. NDIANS AND TROLLEY CARS .awtlable Corloeltr Cawaed a Long " . hlmt of Caiualtlea. When the trolley system was Install d In Mexico City the native Indians, tpart from their wonderment as to rbat unseen force propelled the cars, we anxious to test the new power. ITiey began by trying to stop the car alth their hands, and later with their Vieads and bodies, until the list of cas ltles became great. . 1 Then a brilliant idea struck them. They had often been to bullfights and :;t certain of these had watched a pe culiar opening ceremony which origi nated In Mexico and later was Intro duced into Spain. I Before the bull is it loose In the arena a man clothed in vhlte from head to foot poses 'as a j tfatue In the center of the ring. Ills ; itce and hair are whitened,' and he -"sands without a movement or a flutter I '-f clothing or anything that would (end to'show that he la alive. , " ' When the bull is released he first miffs the air and makes a mad rush Tor the pedestal. Getting quite close e stops and snorts, gazing at the fig ure. Seeing no movement, he gradunl y retires backward In amazement. Ills Mention Is then attracted by others, .:ml the man escapes. The Indians decided to try this on i he cars. Dressing themselves In white und putting flour on their faces' and .mlr they would stand motionless In the "ld(lIo of the car tracks facing the inning monster. There were many ambulance cnlls 'vfore they learned the difference be- 'Veen a bull and a trolley car. Detroit k ree Tress. True Lailnc.a. Ilave something to do. Don't do It.

BUOYANT MIDDLE AGE. It Dailies Jauntily With Youth In Theee Progrcaalve Days, Half a century ago a man of forty five was regarded almost elderly, and a woman of the same age was expected to nave long since cut herself, adrift from all' ties binding her to her youth and to assume the appearance and de portment of a staid, exemplary matron. All this has changed In a particularly Interesting way, of which the prominent-feature Is a seeming contradic tion. ' If the tiree-year-old child of to day is as knowing as was the six-year-old of halt a century ago and the ten-ycar-old , boy of today Is In many re spects quite as much a man as was his grandfather at eighteen, one might nat urally expect that in due gradation the modern middle aged man should be old beyond his years. - But such is not the case. . ' Middle age, so far from hurrying on Into senility so far even from standing still, would seem actually to have stepped backward and marched along side of youth." There is a Jnuntiness, a buoyancy, an elasticity, about the mid dle age' of today at which our fathers would have shaken their heads as un seemly. The gulf which once separated the middle aged parent from his chil dren has-been filled up. The curtain which shrouded the middle aged man generally from the eyes of youth and which caused him to be regarded with respect If not, with awe baB been lifted, and In obedience ,to. the same Influences which .have made the schoolmaster the friend, of the schoolboy- and the regi mental officer 'almost1 the comrade of his men th middle aged man Of today Is never so happy as when working or playing upe an equality and actually in connection with youth. ' ' i As with men so it Is with women. Social statisticians tell us that the age at which women are considered most eligible fer marriage has been very notably' advanced of late years, and we know that the lament of many a matchmaking mamma Is that the most dreaded rivals of her darling are- not to be found so much among the girls of her own age as among women who not many years ago would have been relegated to the ranks of hopeless old maidenhood. The fact that the middle aged lady of today is much younger in manner and tastes Is of course not the only reason for this, but It is among the most potent London Spectator. ;. "A Very Straasra Interce.alon. t 1 In. a , church where the prayers are made at the discretion of the minister very strango Intercessions' are some times presented. I remember well ages since hearing old Dr. Mulr of Glasgow, who was a real though ec centric genius In his day, and of whom no English reader ever beard, relate an Incident .which had, been In his own knowledge.. , i"Mr. Smith was preach ing at Drumsleekle, and he had come to . the concluding prayer,' where we pray for all and sundries (sic), when he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to pray for the magistrates. Bo he put In the prayer Just where he was, 'Have mercy upon all fools and Idiots and specially upon the magis trates of Drumsleckle. He meant no evil, but the magistrates were not pleased." Longman's Magazine. l'lnj-lil"K In Court Some very curious models have from time to time been produced In court In various lawsuits. There was a model of a mill produced lately In a patent case where the patentee claimed his patent to have been Infringed. The patent was In connection with some part of the machinery of the mill. The model mill was set working In court while Judge and counsel watched Its movements with much Interest. A model steam engine was once produced In an action against a railway compa ny. The Judge insisted on having the whole working of the engine explained to him, whereupon the counsel who was speaklug asked for an adjourn ment of the trial for twelve months, when he would be able to give the re quired explanation.

M WW ill m IWhu b u ' Every drop of blood in the body passes through and is filtered by healthy kidneys every three minutes. Sound kidneys strain out the impurities from the blood, diseased kidneys do not, hence you are sick. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE makes the kidneys well so they will eliminate the poisons from the blood. It removes the cause of the many diseases resulting from disordered kidneys which have allowed your whole system to become poisoned. Rheumatism, Bad Blood, Gout, Gravel, Dropsy, Inflammation of the Bladder, Diabetes and Bright's Disease, and. many others, are all due to disordered Kidneys. A simple test for Kidney disease is to set aside your, urine ' in a bottle or glass for twenty-four hours. If there is a sediment or a cloudy appearance, it indicates that your kidneys are diseased, and unless something is done they become more and more affected until Bright's Disease or Diabetes develops. " ' " '. ' -" ' FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE is the only preparation which will positively cure all forms of Kidney and , Bladder troubles, and cure you permanently.
