There are cer tain medicinal properties just as neces sary to health as the food we eat. Take, for example, the well-known tonlo, medl! cine S. 8. 8. This famous blood purifier contains medicinal components Just as vital and essential to healthy blood as the elements of wheat, roast beef, the 010 ua me sugars mat make up our dally ration. matter of fact, there Is one In. aredlent In 8. 8. 8. which serves the actlTe purpose of stimulating each cel lular part 'of the body to the healthy and Judicious selection or Its own essen tial nutriment. That Is why It regener ates the blood supply; why It has such a tremendous Influence ' in overcoming ec sema, rash, pimples, and all skin af ' Dictions. And In regenerating the tissues 8. 8. 8. has a rapid and positive antidotal effect upon all those Irritating Influences that cause rheumatism, sore throat, weak eyes, falling hair, loss of weight, thin, pale cheeks, and that weariness of muscle and nerve that is generally experienced as spring fever.

Beware of any attempt to sell you something "Just as good" as 8. 8. 8. Such a claim Is preposterous. There is nothing else N"Just as good" as 8. 8. 8., nor Is there another remedy similar to this famous blood purifier. Eternal Feminine. Margaret, aged seven years, was playing housekeeper.

CENTRAL Y. M. G. A., PORTLAND, OR. Where Ignorance Is Bliss. Decisions of the United States Su preme court are the most carefully and most successfully guarded edicts that ever issued from the government channels in Washington, D. C. For many years the Supreme court judgeB have succeeded in guarding their de cisions against any "leaks," even though preliminary proofs are printed for their own use. While presidential messages, inter state commerce decisions and other documents are given out in confidence to newspapers, the Supreme court de cisions never come to light New York brokers often would pay lm mense sums for accurate information aa to the court's decisions in railroad br corporation suits that may affect the stock market; but the information is always secured first when it falls from the lips of the justice as he reads the decision from the Supreme Court bench. With this preliminary, the feejlngs of a Washington newspaper corre spondent may be better imagined when he got this letter from the editor of a Southern paper for which he corre sponded: "Please try to get the decision in the Jones case a couple of hours in ad vance so we can get out an extra on it You ought to be able to pull a good scoop out of this. Go around and see Chief Justice White; he knows all about the case, and if you jolly him up perhaps you can pry the decision loose 'way ahead of time." No, he didn't go. Cincinnati En quirer.

Jng It Himalayas n a Log THE hot weather was commenc ing on the plains. Each even ing the gymkhana was becom ing more silent and dreary. Three weeks previously we had been having cold, clear evenings, but a week since there had been a bite In the air as one dressed for pa rade In the half light of dawn; now the wind changed from north to south, dust storms followed, the atmosphere thickened, the glare seemed more In tense, and the hot weather lethargy, which would last for eight months, settled down on the cantonment It was time to think of leave. Dalhousle was the Valhalla of our objective. We had written to the rajah, Sir Bhurln Singh, for shikaris, and the last few days we had almost forgotten the mis eries of the plains in the excitement of the bazars, buying the necessary stores, bargaining with and being "done" by osequlous Hindus and Ma hometans. Famous Golden Temple. At Amrltsar we broke the Journey for a few hours to see the famous Oolden Temple. At Pathankot we left the railway and drove In a tonga to Dunera, a distance of twenty-eight miles. Relays of ponies were in wait ing every five or six miles, fresh and In fair condition after their winter's rest. From Dunera we decided to walk to Dalhousle, taking a coolie to show us a short cut, by which the dis tance was only twelve miles. A few days later the welcome news arrived that the Sach paBs, leading over the snow range, was open. Ac cordingly we hastened towards It At Its foot we had to rearrange our kit half of which had to be left behind, since the coolies could only carry half loads over the snow. We had camped Just under the snow line, upon the last patch of earth visible, under gi gantic pine trees. There we found It so cold that we were glad to share one tent for warmth's sake. Alum could not hear of attempting the pass if there should be any signs of storm, and entertained us by detailing the numerous times he had found corpses on its summit As It turned out, there was no need for anxiety. We were called at three a, m., and soon after made a start, our coolies behind us In Indian file, and men In advance with Ice-axes to cut steps In the dif ficult places. The descent was for the most part slow, the snow being soft and up to our knees In places, but we found a good steep elope on which it was still hard, and we were able to tobog gan to the valley below. News having reached the camp that a goodly number of Ibex had appeared in some ranges situated about three days' march to the northward, one of our party, Lieutenant Edwards by name, decided to try his luck after them. Accordingly we separated. Ape Pays Visit At the home camp the next fort night passed slowly and without suc cess, though we went out every day to look tor thar and Ibex. The usual program was monotonous. After breakfast, about eight o'clock, we started oS with two shikaris .and a tiffin coolie for the ground where a bear or a herd of thar bad last been seen. This was usually some thou sand feet above camp, which Itself was eleven thousand feet up, and the rarefied air made climbing very la borious. To smoke while walking, even along the level, was quite impos sible. Having reached a spot well marked with recent tracks, we select ed good positions for observations, and remained in them Quite silent for the remainder of the day, flnoe, though there was little chanoe of the quarry appearing before evening, It was probably close by sheltering from the heat of the sun. One had Road ample time during this long vigil to observe the smaller creatures of the Jungle at close quarters If one lay still enough. Perhaps a little brown marten would steal across an open patch, or a monal pheasant calling shrilly, would strut past In all its glory. ' One day a musk deer came and grazed within thirty yards; these pretty little animals are not allowed to be -shot In Chamba. The handsome gray langora ape was a frequent vis itor, and the brown monkeys - were a positive nuisance; they sat In the trees close over one's head and kept a covetous eye on the lunch and cam era. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Edwards had an exciting time with a red bear. While returning homewards after a blank day, he spied two red bears on a hill above him. His shikari tried to dissuade him from going up after them, as It was nearly dark; ; but he was much too keen to accept counsel and commenced climbing the hill. They were soon at the spot where the bears had been feeding, but found that the latter had disappeared, evi dently into a large forest of deodars. Taking his .303 from the shlrkari, Ed wards walked slowly Into this jungle, the shikari following him with a 12 bore loaded with ball. They had pro ceeded thus about twenty yards when, from behind a fallen tree within three paces of them, a huge brown head ap peared and then vanished. Seeing the bear lumbering uphill, he shot and stopped It With a snarl It faced about and charged straight down on the hunter; Instinctively he Jumped to one side, firing another shot at close range as the beast crashed past without aiming or even raising his rifle. The bullet missed Its billet but the shot at such close range had the effect of frightening the bear, which continued Its rush downhill. As he was raising his rifle for a third shot Alum touched his arm; he looked around and saw the other bear peer over the log for an Instant and then disappear behind it A second's hesitation and he bad fired at the wounded beast knocking it head over heels down the slope. Swinging round, he watched the log, but the second bear had disapepared. It would have been useless to attempt to follow it In such a large Jungle, even had the light been better. As it was, they had only Just time to re gain the nullah bed before dark. Horse Chestnut If a hundred people be asked why the horse chestnut Is so called, 90 may say they do not know, and nine may tell you that it Is because, at the junc tion of the leaves with the stem there Is a little mark somewhat resem bling a horseshoe. But It happens that this is merely a chance occur rence; the real reason Is less farfetch ed. The horse chestnut tree, which Is purely ornamental, Is largely used in parks because of its great beauty, al though as timber it Is of little value. The fruit Is used In this country sole ly for boys' playthings. In Turkey-ln-Asia, however, where the tree is na tive, the fruit Is ground and mixed with the fodder of the horses, and it is from the fact that it is the horse's chestnut, as opposed to the chestnut enjoyed by man, that this fine addi tion to our countryside takes its home ly name.

CONTROL OF CORN-EAR WORM Insect Eats Its Way Along Within Husk, Devouring Young and Ten der Kernels and 811k. (By W. C. O'KANE.) One of the encouraging things that turn up occasionally in the eternal warfare against Insect pests Is the fact that some remedy or other that Is recommended is also an ordinary fea ture of good farm practice. It is that way with fall plowing. Several trou blesome insects of field and garden happen to be In such location In the late fall that we can reach them by stirring the soil. One or two of them can be fought In almost no other way. The pest that hits the mark most closely Is the corn ear worm. When Infesting corn it eats its way along within the husk devouring the young and tender kernels and silk. As it works Its way down into the ground the worm fills the hole behind It with soil. But once at a depth of three or four inches it turns and makes a short open gallery, part way to the surface. Corn-Ear Worm at Work Eating the Bilk and Young Kernels. Then It retires to the bottom of this and remains until It becomes a moth. In the nailery the duds of the last generation remains all winter. The motn does not come out again until next spring. Now, send a plow through the field In late fall and you accomplish very good results. The pupa Is burled beneath solid earth, which later Is contacted bv winter or spring rains. The moths are thus effectually Imprisoned, and never reach the surface to lay eggs and start the life round once more. Weath er conditions or demands of crop rota tion may make fall plowing out of the question, but f It can be done, there Is much to be gained by it PRACTICAL HINTS OF PLANTS Palm, When Grown on Shady Side of House and Kept Moist, Will Prove Thing of Beauty.

Tne agave, or century nlant will respond -well to a draft of manure- water once a week during the sum mer, but when resting the fertilizer must be entirely withheld.
