you have a boy who has begun
smoking too early And whom you wish
to cure of the habit, feed him pepper­
mints. Dr. O. Clayton Jones of Silver-
ton. England, writing in the Loudon
Lancet, is authority for this simple
cure. Dr. Jones writes: “To break the
smoking habit in a youth there is noth­
ing better than peppermint drops. He
cannot smoke with a 'bullseye' in his
mouth, and even for some time after it
Is dissolved tobacco will not blend kind­
ly with the taste that remains. Social­
ly the cure may seem worse than the
disease, but from a medical point of
view the sucking of peppermints is far
less hurtful. A common ‘bullseye’ will
prevent smoking for nearly an hour,
so the amount of sweets used need not
be great.”

When Johnny Hobbs left his home
up among the New Hampshire hills to
visit his grandmother In Worcester,
Mass., he was cautioned by his mother
thut tie would find tilings in the city
strangely different from those at home.
Johnny arrived in the early ufter-
noon, and long before tea time his
grandmother, who lived most simply,
told him to run out to the puntry and
get a I h > w 1 of milk which she bad left
there “for a hungry boy."
A moment later she followed him,
and. to her amazement, beheld her
grandson bravely at work on a bowl
of s|M-armint tea which she had forgot-
fully put in the place where she bad
told him to And the milk,
“Why, child,” she cried, seizing the
bowl from poor Johnny, "don't you
know this isn’t milk?’
"I—I knew it wasn’t like Hlllbury
milk,” stammered Johnny, with a final
gulp, "but 1 thought maybe it was the
kind folks had In Worcester.”
KASPAR ILLA
This sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for a "world of
troubles.” For derangements of tlie di­
gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali­
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
ayery portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con­
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi­
ness, headache, backache and despond­
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. It is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
If it fails to satisfy we authorize ail
dealers to refund the purchase price.

It is quite true that the cowboy of
: to-day is not a college man, nor one
at all familiar with the manners and
customs of polite society, says Out
West. Neither does he go about his
dally task with a brace of six-shooters
slung at his hips and a repeating rifle
held in the crook of bis arm.
Barbed wire fences, steam railroads,
. [>ollce courts and ¡<eultentlaries have
rendered such appurtenances superflu­
ous. And immediately after pay day he
does not sweep down upon the nearest
town, shoot out the lights and take
part in a gun tight or two.
For the $30 or $40 a month which he
receives a strict attention to the duties
of his job is exjiected, and in these days
of strenuous competition a job is a pre­
cious thing. The life of the modern
cowboy is as full of hard and monoton­
ous work as that of an eastern farm
hand, and there is very little difference
in the intellectual and social standing
of the two.
Though thousands of cattle are graz­
ed on the plains of the Southwest, very
few are shipped direct from the range
to the market. The places of individ­
ual cattle kings have been taken by
great stock companies which own nu-
rnerous tracts of range land in various
parts of the West.
A few years ago a dry season in
southern Arizona meant the death of
many cattle and very frequently the
financial ruin of their owners. The old
timers still tell stories of having walk­
ed for Incredible distances on the car­
casses of dead steers.
But all that is past—they do things
differently now. Let a dry year come
uimhi the southwestern ranges and the
cattle are hustled on board a train and
transported to tlie cattle companies
ranges in Colorado or Montana or Da­
kota, where tlie season is gbod and the
feed abundant.
No long drives of hundreds of miles
in search of new range as in the old
days. Simply a day or two of round­
ing up, then a few hours' drive to the
nearest shipping point on the railroad.
Then perbajis a day in town for the
cowboys and back again to the home
ranch and the regular grind.
Though the cowboy is not a college
graduate he is by no means an igno­
ramus. Usually he is American born
and fairly well read, taking the same
active interest in current topics and
politics that other American citizens do.
As a general rule he has been raised
in the section in which he is employed
and is of youthful appearance.
lie
differs very little from the average
American working youth, western dia­
lect stories to the contrary notwith­
standing.
In all cowboy bunkhouses there is a
pile of current magazines, the contents
of which are devoured with avidity.
And one is not infrequently treated to
the amusing spectacle of a youthful
cowboy becoming so enamored of the
kind of punchers pictured In modern
Action that he purchases a pair of ut­
terly useless six-shooters, commences
to walk with a swagger and to imitate
'he dialect of Red Saunders.
But if marksmanship is no longer a
qualification of the cowpuncher, horse­
manship is. The modern cattleman is
as proud of his ability to ride anything
on four legs as was ever broncho buster
of bygone days, and this is Hie first fuct
impressed upon a tenderfoot.

VENOM OF THE MOSQUITO.
Agency in Spreading Di-eaxr Wax
Discovered Many Years A«o.
At the time of the discovery of tlie
mosquito’s agency in breeding disease
it was not dreamed that far more than
the germ of the trutli had been reveal­
ed many years before, says the New
York Sun. The truth was told in 1853
in the obscure columns of the Faceta
Office, published at tlie port of Camuña.
Venezuela, and a little later in a brief
note or two that the discoverer wrote
to the Academy of Sciences in Paris.
It was buried in those pages and for­
gotten, and has now been resurrected
by tlie Havana Crónica Medico and the
British Medical Journal.
In May, 1853, Louis Daniel Beauper-
thuy, a native of Guadaloupe and
health officer at (Tamaña, wrote to the
Gaceta Official that for fourteen years
he had made a microscopic study of the
blood and secretions in every type of
fever and had discovered that yellow
fever resulted from the stings of sev­
eral species of mosquitoes. “'The mos­
quito plunges its proboscis into the skin
and introduces a poison which has
properties akin to that of snake venom,
it softens tlie red blood corpuscles,
causes their rupture, and facilitates tlie
mixing of the coloring matter with the
serum.”
Beauperthuy said a good word for
the much maligned swamp, whose repu­
tation as a breeder of malaria and oth­
er fevers was widespread. "Marshes
do not communicate to the air any­
thing more than humidity, and the
small amount of hydrogen they give
off does not cause in man the slight­
est indisposition in equatorial and in­
tertropical regions renowned for their
unhealthfulness, Nor is it the putres-
cence of the water that makes it un­
healthy, but tile presence of inosqui-
toes.”
In one of his short communications
to the Paris Academy of Sciences, dat­
ed from Camana, June 18, 1856, he
wrote that as early as 18311 his Inves­
tigations in unhealthy locations in
South America liad convinced him that
the so-called marsh fevers were due to
a vegeto-animal virus “Inoculated into
man by mosquitoes.”
Beauperthuy’s facts and deductions
were so remote from all the medical
teachings of the day that they were
doubtless laughed at and promptly for­
gotten. Probably the priority of his
discovery will now be acknowledged,
but it might have been a profound
blessing to the world if scientific re­
search had been able in the middle of
the last century to proceed along the
lines suggested by Beauperthuy’s an-
nouncement.
•‘FlKhtinu
Before
I.adlea.”
The Hou. Thomas Sharkey, refereeing
a lightweight bout at the Englewood
carnival, rebuked a too energetic pugi­
list. “Remember,” he said, severely,
“you are fighting before ladies.”
The refining influence of women upon
all conflicts, from polo to politics, is a
pleasant theory. A greater man than
Sharkey once disputed it. Telling how
tiie wife of an opponent had been ad­
mitted to u famous ring side, he said:
"Refinin’ influence of woman, huh 1 I'd
got him good an’ licked when site sings
out ’Give it to him 1’ an’ in less'n a min­
ute he'd spiked me in the shin.”
Women watched the fiercest jousts oi
helmeted knlghtn in the days of chival­
ry, when broken necks were not uncom­
mon. They witnessed the combats of
gladiators, as they still do the bull
fights in Spain and Mexico. They joy
in the hot fights of the football field, a
more prolific source of injury than the
prize ring. Women are tlie cause of
most private warfare, as land is the
cause of most national warfare.—New

Swollen glands about the neclc, weak eves, pale, waxy complexions,
running sores and ulcers, skin diseases, and general poor health, are the
usual ways in which Scrofula is mmifested. Tlie disease being deeply
intrenched iu the blood often attacks the bones, resulting in White Swelling,
or hip disease, and the scrofulous and tubercular matter so thoroughly
destroys the healthful properties of the blood that Scrofula sometimes
terminates in consumption, an incurable disease. The entire circulation
being contaminated, the only way to cure the trouble is to thoroughly
purify the blood and restore the circulation to a strong, healthy state.
S. S. S. is the very best treatment for Scrofula; it renovates the entire
blood supply and drives out the scrofulous aud tubercul ar deposits. S. S. S.
is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and it not only goes right down to the
very bottom of the trouble and removes the cause, but it supplies the weak,
diseased blood with the healthful properties it is in need of, and in this way
builds up weak, frail, scrofulous persons and makes them strong and healthy.
S. S. S. is a gentle, safe, vegetable preparation and is suited for persons of
any age. Book on the blood containing information about Scrofula and any

Two Australian Inventors have found
a new process for the continuous treat­
ment of iron ore, which is to be exploit­
ed throughout the world. It is a pro­
cess for directly converting the ore into
malleable iron or steel, and is said to
effect a saving of 25 per cent. After
the ore is concentrated It is passed
through a revolving cylinder and
brought into contact with the deoxldlz-
Ing gas; thence it falls into a bottle
of molten iron and Is converted into
steel or malleable Iron, the whole pro-
cess being automatic.
