-What use is therein eating when food
does you no good in fact, when it does
you more harm than good, for such is
the case if it is not digested?
If you have a loathing for food there
is no use of forcing it down, tor it will
not be digested. You must restore the
digestive organs to their natural strength
and cause the food to be digested, -when
an appetite will come, and with it a re
lish for food.
The tired, languid feeling will give
place to vigor and energy; then, you will
put flesh on your bones and become
strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
as made by the Mount Lebanon ShakerB
contains food already digested and is a
digester of foods as well. Its action is
prompt and its effects permanent.
Doctors prescribe Laxol -because it
has all trie virtues of Castor Oil and is
palatable.

Losing
Flesh You naturally lose flesh in
the summer and running down
is so easy. You get a little
weaker each day without hard
ly noticing it. There is loss of
appetite, headache, weakness
of the muscles, disturbed sleep,
weakness of memory, and these
are the beginning of nervous
prostration Iron and tonics
and bitters may afford some
temporary relief, but what you.
need is a food for. body, brain'
and nerves.

Sentime:itn inspired by au Old Church
Effect of Fugue Music.
Any old ami beautiful church give us
all that is most moving- and noblest
org-svnism, beauty, absence of all thirjg-s
momentary -end v.orthlt-ss, exclusion
of grossness, of brute utility and mean
compromise, equality of all 111011 be
fore God; moreover, time, eternity the
past and the great deuti. 'All noble
churches give us this; how much more,
therefore, says the Contemporary lie
view. St. Mark's, which is noblest and
most Venerable!
It has, like no' other building1, been
handed over by man to nature; time
molding1 and tinting- into life this rfruo
ture already so absolutely organic, so
fit to live.' For its curves and vaulting's,
its cupolas mutually supported, tho
weigrht of each carried by all; the very
color of the marbles, brown, blond, living-
colors and the irregular symmetry,
flower-like, of their natural patterning,
are all seemingly organic and ready for
vitality. Time has added ihnt. with the
polish and dimming alternately of the
marbles, the billowing of the pavement,
the slanting of the columns and last,
but not least, the tarnishing of the gold
and the granulating oi the mosaic into
an uneven surface; the jgold seeming
to have become alive and in a way
vegetable, and to have faded and shrunk
like autumn leaves. .'
One Sunday morning they were sing
ing some fugue composition, by I know
not whom. How n-gll that music suit
ed St. Mark's! The constant .inter
change of Wnlt and vault, cupola and
cupola, column and column, handing
on their energies to one another; the
springing up of new details gathered
at once into the great general balance
of lines alul forces; all this seemed to
find its natural voice in that fugue, to
express, in that continuous revolution
cf theme chasing, enveloping theme,
its own grave emotion of life everlast

Zeal of a Hound Led Him Into a Morti
fying? Mistake.
Up among the green hills of Vermont
two country ball nines were contending
for supremacy one hot afternoon in an
old pasture. Among the assembled
spectators was a sad-faced, lop-eared
houn' dog" which had "previously
boen investigating the contents of a
woodchuck hole. He had worked his
passage in, says Forest and Stream, un
til no dog was visible, but a steady
stream of dirt shooting out like the
blast from the blowpipe of a sawmill
proclaimed that the investigation was
still on. Becoming tired of this, the
hound was sitting down watching the
home team getting "done up," when
suddenly, without warning, he shot
across the field with-a trajectory as flat
as a 32:40 and with nearly the same
velocity. The cause was soon appar
ent. Several little girls were coming
up through a hollow and one was just
tall enough for her brown hat to show
through the fringe of grass on the ris
ing ground in front. When the hound
came near enough for the supposed
woodchuck to merge into a hat with a
girl under it he stopped an inr.tant with
a look of horrified surprise. A yell
arose from the assembled farmers who
had seen the incident, and this so mor
tified the bound that he made straight
for home and was-invisible for several

WATER PIPES GUARD CONVICTS.
When Prisoner! I it the Pipes Water K

A ni'T; idea in jail construction har re
cently le-n successfully tested in Bos
ton. In' brief, the scheme' is to con
struct the cells of hollow .pipes and fill
them with v.-.ater.When n pipe? is served
the water pca)e.l and by a syf-teni of
registers in the office of the jail the. fact
is made knew 11, as well hs the particular
cell where the. pipes have been attacked.
Mo attempt, is made to have the pipes
particularly hard. Common gas pipe
is as good as any and will answer every
.purpose. The. water is kept under u
high pressure so that it will be sure to
give the alarm when the pipe is severed.
. . ITnder. the usual system of jail con
struction it is aimed to make the bins
so hard that saws will not affect them;
or, at best, ra hard that cutting would
be a slow projr." r-'. But convicts in
jails, arc as ch'vcr : ;he men who con
struct jail cells, a::;1 r .ethods have, bren
discovered for taki; g the temper out
of the hardest steel. Xitric aeid will
do. and so will con.Tnon candle. If the
flame of .1 lie latter is kept far several
days close against a Jjar of chill.'d steel
it will be. made so soft that a common
s-ti'fl raw will cut it. Solid steel plates
have been eaten with acids and escape
made' possible. The filling of hollow
pipes with water seems to be a good
thing. '.
CAUSTIC IN MOTHS.
Discovery of the Substance tlsed In Es
caping from Cocoons.
A most remarkable entomological dis
covery has been announced by Oswald
Latler, the great naturalist. It is to the
effect that the imogo of the moih Diera
nura vinula. secretes a pure caustic
potash which it uses to penetrate the
tough silken bag or-cocoon in which
it is inclosed, says the St. T.ouis Repub
lic. Caustic potash is, as most everyone
knows, a powerful-cdustic which de
stroys skin and. flesh when brought. in
contact, with it. That it sboeld be se
creted or formed ijjthc mouth or inter
nal anatomy of ny living creature is
so singular and unlikely that the ento
mologists were at first inclined to dis
lndieve the story as related by Mr. Lat
ter, in telling of his discovery.
It has long been known that this jinr
ticuleir species of moth used me krnd
of lifjiiid with wh-h to soften tbe co
coon when he arrived at tiie age when
nalure hinted that it was time to get
riil of the silken envelope, but Mr. Mat
ter's experiments have forthel'rst tinw?
disclosed the nature of that liquid.
Prof. Latter made this singular discov
ery by clipping" the ends from eoco'ius
and cati'liing the liquid whfii.it was
ejected. This he subjected 1 o chent.ctd

the unique spectacle of t he snnual bless

St. Peter's church, and after it had made
a detour of the fishing quarter of the
town chanting the litany a position was
taken up overlooking the sea. Th?

address, and prayers were offered ask

calling.

PUT FISH IN HIS MILK.
Cruel Treatment of Honest "Paddy"-
O'llara by Xo City Jokers. '''.
"Paddy" O'llara,. butcher and milk
man of La Conner, with his fountains
of mirth and beaming face, is in the
city again taking in 4 he sights, says
the Seattle TiruciS: "l'addy" is a char
acter, an original feliow, and is known
to everyone- in Skagit county, also to
most all of the old-tiniers of Seattle.
He likes to tell stories, but here is one
that nnother fellow told on hini:
The duties otinilKmaii in La Conner
are in fi largo measure regarded as
those of-a public servant, and if the.
milkman is ever suspected' of watering
his mill: a public scandal is the result.
O'llara was continually annoyed by
some of his customers in their banter
ing way accusing him of selling wa
tered milk-. "One of them declared he
would prove, the milk was watered, and
a, wager was quickly. closed with two of
the most noted "joshers" in the com
munity. ' '
The next morning "Paddy" was more
careful than ever, and gave his custom-1
ers-almost pure cream. His 'content
was short-lived, however,- for in the
presence of his liest lady customer, as
he poured out the rich fluid, " What
should, glide out of the can into the
measure but three small Puget sound
silverside salmon. O'Hara was greatly
excited and , his customer equally
alarmed. He .declared loud and long
thiTt he had been "jobbed," and, to sub
stantiate the- assertion, he even said
that if he did water his milk a little he.
was not guilty of putting in the fish, as
that would only too plainly display
criminal carelessness.
VOLAPUK HAS A RIVAL.
Esperanto Is the Name-of .This New Unl
.- vernal Language.
Esperanto is not the numc of a new
. liquor or of a new appetizer, nor that
of a comic song, but it is the name of
an artificial language, which is fast
gaining adherents in France, and that
is nlready able to boast of many fol
owers in Europe, the United States,
and even in some parts of Africa
' Among those most proficient in. the
language is a Frenchman, bearing the
aristocratic name of D'Eyssautier. He
says that Esperanto is by no means a
new language, nor even a recent dis
covery. This international language
has been in existence nearly ten years,
and there are at least 10,000 adherents
in different parts of the world.
The author or originator of Esperan
i to is a Knssian gentleman. Dr. Zanien
I hof, of Warsaw. He says that one may
learn its grammar in an hour, and all
its vocabulary of words in a few days.
The official organ of the language,
the Esperantisto, is utterly opposed to
the Volapnk organ, for it ha literary
tendencies.
The fact is, . Esperanto hopes to de
throne Volanuk altogether. Verses
I may be. written in it, and translations
j of the Iliad and Hamlet have been pub
! lished.
