HOW TO KEEP HOUSB.
With all the luxuries and pleasures ot
this life, its big enjoyments and its smaller
comforts, there is an effect or antithesis
which we have to contend in the form of
aches and pains. In some way and by
Borne form at some time. Trifling as some
of them may be, the risk is that they will
grow to something gieater and rack tb
system with constant torture. There is
notning, therefore, of this kind that we
have a right to trifle with. Taken in time,
the worst forms of aches and pains are
easily subdued and permanently cured
by the tree uie of St. Jacobs Oil. No well
regulated household ought to be without
a bottle of this great remedy for pain. One
good reason for this is that some kinds o
sudden pain are acute enough to be fatal
where the application of the great curt
might save life. You want it altfo in the
house at all times for hurts, cats and
wounds, and the house that always has it
keeps up a sort of insurance against pain.

SEEKS AFTER TRUTH.
DENVER WATCHMAKER TO DWELL
WITHNATURE. FAR FROM CROWDS.
Will Travel In a Novel Wagon Hidden
Secret Will Be Fathomed Such the
Eastern Mystics Have Learned on Tibet s
Loftyl Heights. "
- Elisha Lane of Denver has just started
out on an expedition so novel that the
paltry quest of Diogenes for an honest
man is, child's play compared with it.
Air. Lane's mission is "to wrest from
nature her secrets," and be philosophic
ally proposes to go about this task by
"putting himself in harmony with na
ture." To this end be has bad built a house
wagon in which be will travel from
Denver clear through to southern Cali
fornia, baiting by the way wherever the
lisp of leaves, the brawl of mountain
streams or the soughing of winds in
primeval forests seems to be telling the
secret of which be longs to become pos
sessed. This latest seeker after truth will not,
however, travel alone. He will be ao
oompanied by bis wife and three little
children, aged 5 years, 8 years and 10
months, respectively.
The itinerant home for this family
cost $750, and it will be drawn by two
horses. It is IS feet long, 6 feet wide
and 6 feet bigh, and is made of pine
boards 2 J inches wide and three-quarters
of an inch thick, placed vertically.
Under the driver's seat is a tool box,
the space beneath the body of the wagon
is to be used for storing household goods,
and at the rear is a feed box for. the
horses. The entrance is at the rear
through a door of polished oak with
glass panels, and the interior is quite in
keeping with this handsome entrance.
The floor is handsomely carpeted, the
portieres are hung on bronze rods, the
walls and ceiling are artistically pa
pered and the two windows, 20 by 24
inches each, are provided with dainty
lace curtains. ,
Across the front end of the wagon an
oak seat runs which becomes the sup
port for the bead of a bed, which is re
leased by a spring from its position in
the wall. A bed similarly devised is at
the left of the door.-
By careful economy in space this
room also contains a tiny chiffonier, a
plate glass mirror, a washstand, a fold
ing writing table with drawers and
pigeonholes, and a stove, the ashes of
which will be dropped to the ground
through a sort of funnel. .
Every detail of this conveyance was
planned by Mr. Lane himself, who js a
man of about 81 years and a watchmak
er by trade. He was born in Bowling
Green, Ky. He married Miss Carrie
MacFarland of Leavenworth, Kan., and
lived in Kansas City until July last,
when he removed to Denver. In appear
ance Lane bears a striking resemblance
to Schlatter. He is entirely self educat
ed, not to say nneducated, for by bis
own confession only two years ago he
was unable to read Shakespeare with
any appreciation of his meaning.
- The sum total of his philosophy as ex
pressed by bim is : "I claim that there
is some secret force, some hidden power
in nature, which men have not discov
ered. A few men have caught faint
gleams of this occult force, and thereby
they have become wise beyond their
generation. Luther was one of these
men and Schlatter is another. To gain
this knowledge a man must follow na
ture, and it is for that reason that I al
low my hair and beard to grow. When
I reach the mountains, I shall hope to
touch that higher state which has en
abled the adepts of India in Tibet to ac
quire their mystic power."
In order to sustain the material man
on the way to the wellsprings of "Hid
den Truth," Mr. Lane will halt. from
time to time in mining camps and in
small towns, and take heed of time by
mending watches and selling eyeglasses.

Gladness Comes
With a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef
forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that bo many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in he enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted . with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
v-ied and gives most general satisfaction.

WILL BE HIS OWN FATHER. J
Bow Jnda-e Scott Will Be Affected by Xz
Fresldent Harrison's Marriage.
Ex-President Harrison's brother-in-law,
Judge J. N. Scott of Port Towns
bend, Wash. , at a social gathering the
other evening discovered very unexpect
edly that 'he was about to become his
Own father. The subject of General Har
rison's approaching wedding was being
discussed with a party of friends when
some one." asked Judge Scott if that
would not somewhat complicate and
tangle up the limbs on the family tree.
party commenced to try to solve
the
matrimonial problem, and' the deeper
they went into the subject the more
mystified they became, and finally it
was given up as an unfathomable tangle.
Several of the notes made and calcula
tions formed were preserved and given
to the press. ' . .. .. .. .
Of the existing relationship Judge
Scott is fully informed. . It was in trying
to locate the limb of bis own family tree
after the wedding shall have taken place
that he became confused, After several
hours of deep mental exercise he arrived
at these conclusions: !I am now Gen
eral Harrison's brother-in-law, and Mrs.
Dimmick, his prospective bride, is my
niece. After they are married my brother-in-law
will become my nephew, and
my niece, consequently, will become my
sister-in-law. Then, of, course, I will
become my own brother-in-law, and
also, my niece's brother-in-law. Now,"
slowly continued the philosophical rea
soner, delving into the future a little
deeper, "if this contemplated union
should be productive of a claimant for
the ancestral hat, he will be my nephew,
and - also my grandnephew. . I will be
his uncle and his grandunole. Whew, "
ejaculated the judge, as he wiped the
perspiration from his brow, "that will
complicate matters. Just see here. ' Now,
in order to be uncle and grandunole to
one and the same person, it must neces
sarily follow that I am my own father,
and oh, hang the whole thing any
how, I am not going to rack my brain
over other people's troubles," and up
jumped the judge, somewhat exasper
ated, v
The logical result of the union was
quite astonishing; the judge and the
guests sat down to figure it out again,
arriving at .the ea'mo conclusion. Then
some one ascertained that General Har
rison would become his own nephew
and a cousin of his own son, should one
be born, and who will, also, be a second
cousin to his own brother audi his fa
ther's nephew. At this point the mental
exercise subsided, Judge Scott agreeing
to furnish a palatable beverage if his
guests would keep inviolate the secret.
But it leaked out, and has been given to
the press. St. Louis Globe-Democrat

Remains
of a Remarkable Baos
of Men

Early in December Frank Hamilton

nology of the Smithsonian institution ;
Wells M. Sawyer, an artist and photog
rapher of the art department of the
United States geological survey, "and
Carl F. W. Bergman, museum expert of
the United States National museum,
completed arrangements to visit Flori
da,', with the intention of making ap in
vestigation of the Shell keys and ancient
reef settlements of Charlotte harbor,
and the very interesting mounds at Na
ples, about 150 miles south of Tampa. "
A . camp was established at Finley's
Hammock, or Hope Grove, a few miles
north of the Ancldte river, where, under
the direction of Mr. Sawyer, a number
of interesting discoveries were made.
In the mounds the burials were nu
merous, and although some hundreds of
such burials were encountered the re
mains were so affected by age as to ren
der it almost impossible to preserve
them. By very careful treatment a large
collection of skulls and other portions
of skeletons, interesting for study, were
secured. The skulls are in many respects
remarkable, possessing features that are
apparently unusual.' This is especially
the case in reference, to the great nar
rowness of the temnoral resiona. the
massive development of the jaws and
the prominence of the brows. : A study
of this collection will probably definite
ly decide to what group of Indians these
people were allied. .
All of the ' remains are prehistoric.
The find is necessarily large on account
of their peculiar burial customs. A re
markably representative collection of all
of their various arts of life in pottery,
stone and bone implements and orna
ments was found.

much as 2,000 silver dollars. But we
shall not see that sort at a picnic. The

is a cloth or cotton jacket (kabaia). In

women and children at home, and not
coming home to attend to the little mat-,
ter of voting.
Inasmuch as the women have to do
all the farm work as well as the house
work In this singular community, it
does not seem strange that they rather
Insist upon holding the offices, and not
assigning them to such old men as may
be about. Futhermore, It is said that
they have for a period of several years
managed all the public affairs of the
Besjukow district so well that the men
are quite content to abandon the tedi
ous work of government to them.
Sometimes, when the "head woman"
of the Joint communes Is presiding over
a public assembly of women to pass
upon important financial and other con
cerns, certain of the men have been
known to come borne for file purpose
of merely looking on and admiring the
method of procedure or else of hearti
ly felicitating -themselves upon being
rid of so bothersome a duty.
People Who Patronise Banks
There is one savings bank here which
keeps an accurate record of the calling
of its depositors. During the last year
there was only one actor on the list,
while there were 1,892 tailors; there
was but one editor, while there were
725 laborers; there was but one board
ing house keeper and 837 . peddlers.
There were lots of shoemakers, bakers,
barbers, waiters, cigar makers, but very
few musicians, liquor dealers, lawyers
or policemen. Chicago Tribune.

Paine's celery compound. It has lifted
thousands from beds of sickness. It
does what nothing else ever did for the
sleppless, the dyspeptic, and the de
spondent it cures them once and for
all. ' Here is a testimonial from E. A.
Miller of Columbus, O. , accompanying
the photograph of his family.
"For two years past I have been a con
stant sufferer with severe nervous head
aohes, ofttimes being compelled to go
to bed, when my business necessitated
my personal attention. Last week my
physician recommended Paine's celery
compound. I have taken now four
bottles, and have not suffered with
headache sinoe. This government, in
my mind, should pay the discoverer of
Paine's celery compound a sum of
money sufficient to keep him and all
his relatives in luxury during their
natural life." ' .
Mr. Miller is the son of Dr. J. D.
Miller. His wife is the granddaughter
of the late Gov. Lucas of Ohio. Mr.
Miller's praise of Paine's celery com
pound is equaled by that of thousands
of others who owe their health and
strength to this greatest of all rem
edies. ERCURIAL
