"JACK THE KISSER."
Peddler Makes Himself Troublesome
Among Spokane Housewives.
John Harrison, or "Jack tho Kl
(r," has again been doing dtuntfl wi!h
the ladles, says tho Spokane Press
Jack is becoming a well known oba1-acie-
with tho lndluj of Spokane. Htn
methods are 11nlo.uo nnd quite up to
ilal". A little bottle of patent medl
cine is used ns n password, und with
his bland smile and oily voice ho
gnins entrance to the homes of many
pretty women. A tap on the shoulder
ts his favorlto method of oponlng the
gnme. If the lady gets indignant he
persuades her that he is omphnslzing
the good qualities of hlB wonderful
cure. If tho fair one lxirmlts him to
take hold of her urm he genornlly
tries to embrace her. Ho thinks noth
ing of chasing a woman through the
house to gain the desired muls. Mar
ried women nro the joy of his life.
When the husband Is home, of course.
It Is different. Jnok is leary, and
hardly ever makes mistakes. His In
st. nctivo sense is strongly developed
nud tho woman with a man in the
house Is Immune. Saturday "Jack the
Kiscer" was up before Judge Hlnklo
on the charge of endeavoring to kiss
a woman who lives on the North side.
"N it guilty," said the oily Jack, when
asked to plead. When confronted with
the woman herself, all - expected to
see Jack wilt. Not so, he told the
witness sho must be mistaken, al
though he might have touched her on
the arm, but he did not remember of
oven being In the house. "No, your
honor, I have never been in this court
before," exclaimed tho Infatuated
medicine man with a grin. "Wull, I
will tine you $2B nud costs," said
Judge Hlnklo, "and give you hours to
leavo town."

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never Suspect it.
IIow To Find Out.
Pill n bottle or common glass with your
Water and let it stand twenty-four hours ;
a sediment or set
tlingiudicatesan unhealthy con
dition of the kid
neys; if it stains
your linen it is
evidence of kid
ney trouble ; too
fretjuent desire
to pass it or tain
in the ttack is
also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
What To Bo.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the fjreat kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the Ixick, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
leer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being conielleU to go often
during the day, nnd to Ret up many
times durine the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is noon realised. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent autl one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells all
about it, bothsent free
by mall. Address Dr.
Kilmer Si Co., Ding-
lianiton. N. Y. When ItaMof ftuBp4tsoi
writing mention this oancr and don't
uuuee any mistake, out remember the

Tapestry Bed Quilt
Thousands of Dollars.
What is probably the most vnlun
bio counterpano that ever graced a
bed Is owned by a Washington wo
man, Mrs. Ottilia Church, now living
In Now York. As a work of nrt ih
counterpane was appraised when
brought to this country, at $5,000. As
an nrt curio It Is worth much more.
It Is made entirely of fine beads,
worked out in the most beautiful flor
al and religious designs, nud weighs
over 60 pounds.
This head-tapestry counterpane,
probably tho only one of Its kind In
the world, ns regards both size and
exquisite color effects, measures 7
by 7'6 feet. The cntlro nrea, compris'
lnc over CO soliare feet la siiliillv
worked with the finest Venetian '
beads, over 1,100,000 being used In
the tapestry. Tho beads are worked
on a heavy linen back, eacli bead be
ing separately fastened.
The tapestry was made over CO
years ago by a nun In n convent near
I'lorence, Italy, und seven years wore
necessary to complete it. fio fine are
the beads and so intricate the t--signs
worked with them that human
ojes-Ight could stand but an hour or
fo of Htich work at a time.
Around tho edge of this tapestry Is
a border nlno Inches wide, the
Barbers Practicing a Very Bad Cus.
torn on Patrons.
I-utely u great many barbers rue 1
using on their customers cloths 1
wrung out ot hot water, applying
them to the face ns hot as they can
lie boine, says Medical Talk
Wo believe this to be n very bad
practice, uniy Borne extreme neces
sity can warrant such a procedure
lo .-pp'sti'iily use hot water Is to
make the skin spongy. It favors a
rei'.iii-sH and capillary congestion of
tlrj skin, and renders a person much
more liable to Hie ill effects of wntry
v either, stich as branny skin nnd
pimp.'ec 1
dplas-hln-.; the face with cold witer
following it with a brisk towel rub,
Is all the treatment the tuce needs,
excopt In speelnl cases. There nre
some rases where the skin nf thn
nose and cheeks Is very red and
puffy, usually known as "red blos
som." whole hot applications would 1
doubtless be of value. Hut the av-1
erage person does nut require imy ,
such treatment. '
The hot water towel Is doing u I
gieat deal of mischief Home barbers
are nlready finding this out. Hut 1
)iroieiuonal people nre ery Blow to,
learn. The hot water applications 1
are especially harmful during the
cold months. They do not do so much
harm while th,. weather Is hot, but
they are of no good nt any time or
the year, and should he avoided bv
every sensible person.
