FOR 2 YEARS the formula for. making Scott's Emulsion has been endorsed by physicians of the whole world. No secret about it. This is one of its strongest endorsements. But the strongest endorsement possible is in the vital strength it gives. Emulsion nourishes. It does more for weak Babies and Growing Children than any other kind of nourish ment. It strengthens Weak Mothers and restores health to all suffering from Emaciation and General Debility. For Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Bron chitis.Weak Lungs.Consumption, Blood Diseases and Loss of Flesh. Scott ft Bowne, N. All Druggist. 60c and $1. A Bpokin Mtry. Spokane, Jan. 29. The most myster ious attempt at suicide in the history of this city was made today. An unknown young man entered a lodging house and secured a room. Soon after a shot was heard, the door was broken in and on the floor, weltering in his own blood, which flowed freely from a ragged wound - in hia forehead, was the outstretched body of a young man, apparently about 28 years old. At midnight, be was still alive, bnt unconscious, and physicians say be cannot recover. Who the man is, where be came from, or what motive prompted him to do the terrible deed, are yet unknown. Before the commis sion of the rash act, he destroyed every vestige of paper on his person that would lead to his identity, and only a small pile of smouldering aahes was lefl. The bnrned outline of a photograph, ap parently of a man, was in the stove, but when touched it cjumbled to . ashes. The unfortunate person was attired in a light coat, vest, trousers of a dark striped material, black sateen shirt and a blue necktie of a flowered pattern. On bis feet were a pair of laced calf shoes with cloth tops. On the bureau was a black plush cap, while on the bed was a brown frieze overcoat. In his pocket was over $10 in cash, while in his vest pocket waa a small silver watch, with a Swiss move ment. He is smooth-shaven, with the exception of a small light mustache, fair . com plexioned, about S feet 9 inches in height and weighs about 150 pounds. He has soft hands, which shovr he did not belong to the laboring class. Some -cards of the Franklin- house, San Fran- - cisco, found in his pockets, seem to in dicate that he was a runner for hotels.

TRICK WITH A BANK BILL. - A Man Who Planned a Good Joke on Hll Boston Friends. A man walked into a hotel near .the Grand Central station 'early the other morning, having just left a train. He ordered and ate a hearty breakfast and then, instead of giving his waiter the money to pay the check and waiting for the change, as most men ao, ne 'tipped" the waiter and carried tne bill to the cashier. In his Sand, says the New York Tribune, along with the bill for his breakfast, he held a ten- dollar note. "I wish," he said to the cashier, that you would . pin a slip of paper to this bank bill, so that you can identify it, and then put it away, please, until I call for it. I'll be back to-morrow." The cashier looked rather aston ished. "Yes," said the other. "I only want to leave it here as security for my breakfast. I'll come back to get it.". "But it's a good bill," said the cash ier. "I'll accept it and give you tne -change." "No, replied the stranger. "I don't want you to do that. I want merely to leave this bank bill in pawn. I want to pledge it. Give me the price of my breakfast on it, and to-morrow I'll re deem it." "Oh, I see," said the cashier, with a smile, "you want to keep this bill be cause it has some peculiar value through association. It's a sort of a souvenir, eh?" "Well, not exactly," was the answer. "You see, I have been over in Boston. I went nearly broke there. When I was coming away some of my friends insisted on lending me some money. I tqld them that I should not need it, but they declared I could not pull through. One of them forced ten dol lars on me." "'I'll tell you what I'll do,' I said. You take down the number and date of this bill. I'm oming to Boston again next week. Now to prove to you that I don't need this ten dollars, I'll bet you that I bring the same bill back with me, I'll bet a dinner for us all.' "They took the bet, and that is why I want to put this bill in pawn. Pretty good joke on them, eh?" he said, with a wink. "I spend it, and yet I keep it. Take good care of it for me," and he went out, looking like a conqueror. About five minutes later the cashier took out the bill, pinned the slip of pa per to another one of about the same color and appearance, and slipped them back into his casbrdrawer. "I wonder who'll have the joke on him, now?" he said to himself, and then he whistled softly. . - COINS OF LITTLE USE. ' The Gold Dollar Had No Utility, While the Three-Cent Piece Served a Purpose. To one who has not given the sub ject thought it would seem that the most useless coins ever issued by the United 'States were the silver three cent pieces. They were small, as thin as a sheet of manilla paper and before they finally disappeared from circula tion they came to be regarded as nuisances. ' Although there is much to be said against the annoying little coins, says the New York Herald, they were, as a matter of fact, of far greater utility, as far as circulation is concerned, than another coin. This is the gold dollar, which, experts at the sub-treasury say, has never served any useful purpose. Said Maurice Muhleman, cashier of the sub-treasury, recently: "From the mutilated condition of the gold dollars sent here for redemp tion it is positively shown that the public do not regard them as coins. Their only use appears to be for ban gles, necklaces, watch' charms, scarf pins and the like. It is doubtful if one in a thousand ever really passed in circulation "With the three-cent silver piece, it was different. When first coined, the country had nothing in the shape of a coin between the huge copper cents and half cents and the silver half dime. The small coin was hailed as a blessing, and became popular at once. There was an excellent reason for its issue also. "Strange as it may seem, it was not provided for by a coinage act, but by an act revising the postal rates. This law . lowered the cost for transmitting the unit of weight for letters from five to three cents. It was deemed advisable by congress thereupon to issue a coin of corresponding denomination. The coin was of great utility, and circulated rreeiy until the advent of the nickel. Carlton Corn well, foreman of - the Gazette, Middleton, N.J., believes that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy should be in every home. He ued it for a cold and it effectad a speedy cnre. He says "It is indeed a grand remedy, I can rec omend to all. 1 have also seen it used for whooping congh, with the best results." 50 cent bottles for sale ly Blakelev & Hnnahton DrncUts. .
